Today I started reading Yu Hua’s novel "Wencheng", in order to avoid forgetting after reading it Regarding the problem, I specially studied the way the community dismantled "The Qiao Family" before while reading and dismantling it.
Wencheng
1
There is a rich family named Lin Xiangfu in Xi Town. He has more than 1,000 acres of fertile fields and the woodworking club he opened is well-known.
No one knows his origins, but judging from the strong northern accent in his foreign accent, it is concluded that he came to Xizhen from north to south.
Seventeen years ago, he came here carrying a huge burden and a daughter who was under one year old in his arms.

Lin Xiangfu came from the north of the Yellow River thousands of miles away.
He was born into a wealthy family. His father was fond of carpentry and was the only scholar in the village. His mother was the daughter of a successful scholar. She was well-read in poetry and books and had a keen mind and hands.
His father died when he was 5 years old, leaving him more than 400 acres of land, a six-room house and more than 100 books in boxes. While his mother was weaving, he was giving guidance on his studies.
He began to inspect the fields at the age of 13. He loved carpentry and studied under his mother. He was praised for his smart hands and ability to endure hardships and stand hard work.
His mother died of illness when he was 19. He went to the fields as usual, but stopped reading books and lived alone and silently for five years.
Every late autumn, Lin Xiangfu would follow his mother's habit and lead a donkey to the city to exchange the remaining silver dollars from the year's harvest for a small gold bar. At the same time, he would buy back one or two pieces of colored satin for the Use it when you go on a blind date.
Lin Xiangfu, who is accustomed to his mother making the decision for himself, is at a loss when it comes to blind dates. Every time, he ends up leaving colorful satin to show that the blind dates have failed.
There was once a woman who made him very attracted and wanted to stay for dinner. However, due to the matchmaker's misjudgment, he refused the marriage and he could not let go.

When he was 24 years old, a young man and woman came to his house speaking words he couldn't understand.
The scholar-like man said in an accent he could understand that the carriage he was riding in was falling apart and asked to stay overnight. The young woman's movement as she took off her headscarf moved him.
From the conversation at night, Li Xiangfu knew that they were brother and sister. The elder brother was called Aqiang and the younger sister was called Xiaomei. They come from a town called Wencheng in the Jiangnan Water Town. Their parents have passed away, and the brother and sister are going to the capital to join their powerful uncle.
Lin Xiangfu told them about his father, mother, thread-bound books, and mother’s loom. Finally, he talked about the wealthy households within a hundred miles, which made Aqiang’s eyes shine and Xiaomei was shy. smile.
He likes Xiaomei, and her eyes make Lin Xiangfu, who usually rarely talks, become talkative.
Xiaomei fell ill the next day. After the brother and sister talked in their own tone, Aqiang asked Lin Xiangfu to temporarily take in his sister. Lin Xiangfu agreed, and Aqiang quickly said a few words to Xiaomei again before going out and heading north.
That afternoon, Xiaomei got off the kang, put on her clogs, and started doing housework. At dusk, she sat on the threshold and looked at Lin Xiangfu who came home with a smile. Looking at the house that had been tidied up and the food on the table, Lin Xiangfu seemed to be in someone else's home. Both he and Xiaomei felt awkward.
Four
Lin Xiangfu saw Xiaomei sitting on the threshold and looking into the distance many times, thinking that she was looking forward to her brother, and always comforted her by saying that Aqiang would come to pick her up soon. But my heart was full of melancholy.
Xiaomei used a loom to make Lin Xiangfu instantly have the illusion that his mother was still there. He felt that his mother's loom made Xiaomei feel at ease, so he stopped mentioning Aqiang and started reading books while Xiaomei was weaving.
Five
One night in winter, rain and hail penetrated the roof, and Xiaomei was so frightened that she crawled into Lin Xiangfu's bed. Although there was no skin-to-skin contact, Lin Xiangfu fell for Xiaomei's body temperature and panting.
Rain and hail claimed the life of steward Tian Donggui. Lin Xiangfu asked his sons to clean him and put on clean clothes, made him a coffin himself, and sent him a white cloth woven by Xiaomei.
Affected by the desolate sounds in the village and the sudden incident the night before, Lin Xiangfu and Xiaomei remained silent. Xiaomei cautiously went to another room. Lin Xiangfu was anxious and went to Xiaomei's room to lie down with her. Beside him, Xiaomei swam up to him like a fish.
Six
Lin Xiangfu and Xiaomei are together, and their lives have entered a stable state.
In February of the following year, Xiaomei began to look into the distance again. Lin Xiangfu thought that she was missing her brother and comforted her that Aqiang would appear before the hail melted. Xiaomei whispered that she couldn't go to the capital with Aqiang even if he came.
Lin Xiangfu took Xiaomei to his parents' graves and told his parents that Xiaomei was his woman and he wanted to marry her.
Seven
Three days later, people from the village came to the house to help Lin Xiangfu and Xiaomei organize the wedding.
A villager wearing a sapphire blue gown said that a man with a scar on his forehead had exchanged it for half a bag of corn.
Lin Xiangfu told Xiaomei that she was the bride and had nothing to do today, and then took the five Tian brothers into the city to drink. They did not return home drunk until dusk, and drank all the drinks. Spent my wedding in a deep sleep.
Xiaomei woke up at night. She made ginger soup for him and brought him the meat she had secretly hidden. She felt sorry for the pigs and sheep that were eaten at the wedding.
Xiaomei showed Lin Xiangfu her dowry - three headscarves. Lin Fuxiang showed Xiaomei the house deed, land deed, seventeen large gold bars and three small gold bars, and recalled the scene when her mother died. .
August
One day in February, Lin Xiangfu came back from the fields. Xiaomei said that spring was coming and her brother had not arrived yet. Lin Xiangfu found that he had forgotten Xiaomei's brother.
Xiaomei asked Lin Xiangfu if there was a temple. She wanted to burn incense and ask the Bodhisattva to bless her brother. Lin Xiangfu said that fifteen miles to the west there is the Guandi Temple.
In the evening, Xiaomei put a small bundle on the kang and told Lin Xiangfu that food was on the stove and that a new set of clothes and two pairs of new cloth shoes were made for him and put in the closet.
When Lin Xiangfu woke up the next day, Xiaomei was gone. Tian Si said that he saw Xiaomei carrying a baggage on her back before dawn, and walking south with a baggage in her hand.
Xiaomei is gone and never returns. Lin Xiangfu found that her clothes, cloth shoes, clogs and wind-wearing peony scarf were all gone, leaving only the magpie's eyebrows and the lion's hydrangea scarf pressed against Lin Xiangfu's clothes.
Lin Xiangfu was restless for the next few days. He felt that Xiaomei might have left, but he didn't know why she left.
After eating the food Xiaomei prepared for him, he suddenly associated the wooden box in the partition wall with Xiaomei's departure, and he recalled Xiaomei's look at that time.
He took out the wooden box. The land deed and the house deed were still there. Ten of the seventeen large gold bars in the bag were left, and one of the three small gold bars was missing. He knew why Xiaomei never returned. .
He knelt in front of his parents' graves in the cold moonlight and cried bitterly, shouting that he was sorry for his parents and ancestors, and that he had been deceived by Xiaomei.
Nine
After that, Lin Xiangfu became taciturn. Sometimes he thought of Xiaomei and Aqiang and suspected that they were not brother and sister. Xiaomei was far away in his memory, and his anger towards Xiaomei was also dissipating.
I remember what my mother once said, "Even if you have a fortune, it is better to have a little skill." He continued to study under his masters, and he studied under many skilled carpenters everywhere.
Ten
The rumors of Xiaomei’s departure brought the long-lost matchmaker to the house. After asking about Geng Tie, Xiaomei’s birthday, and whether she would be picked up in a sedan when she got married, the matchmaker I am very sure that Xiaomei will not come back.
Before the matchmaker left, she talked about the previous lady from Liuzhuang. She was neither deaf nor mute, and she married into the Sun family who ran a bank in the city. When she got married, she was very beautiful. She was accompanied by a dowry and longevity gifts. She was dressed in red and looked very charming.
That night Lin Xiangfu was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He saw Miss Liu coming out of the sedan dressed in red, and her figure walking in the hall, and Xiaomei wearing a floral dress. The cheongsam appeared at the gate at that dusk hour. In the end, he felt that this was all fate and fate.
National Day
A month before the wheat harvest, Lin Xiangfu came back from the city at night. He saw the lights on at home and heard the sound of the loom. Xiaomei came back, still wearing That floral cheongsam.
He asked the big and small yellow croakers if they would bring them back. Xiaomei knelt down and just shook her head.
He angrily asked Xiaomei how dare she come back empty-handed after stealing the gold bars. Xiaomei knelt on the ground and trembled.
He waved Xiaomei to leave. Xiaomei said that she was pregnant with his flesh and blood and asked him to let her give birth to her child here.
Lin Xiangfu took Xiaomei to the cemetery, and asked Xiaomei to kneel down and confess to her parents, and begged her parents to allow her to give birth to the child in the Lin family.
Lin Xiangfu led Xiaomei home and carried Xiaomei into the threshold.
He asked again where the gold bars went and who they gave them to, but Xiaomei lowered her head and said nothing. He asked Aqiang who she was, and Xiaomei hesitated and said he was his brother.
Lin Xiangfu turned around and left, silently sitting on the small stool made by his father and staring at the loom. After a long time, he did not return to the house until the lamp oil on the windowsill ran out, and said softly, "Go to sleep quickly." ."
When Xiaomei reached into his bed and grabbed his hand, he really felt that Xiaomei was back.
The children in Xiaomei’s belly hit his palm one after another, making him feel happy and sad at the same time. After Xiaomei fell asleep, he said a lot of heartfelt words, telling about his sadness and anger after Xiaomei left. In the end, he said that although Xiaomei stole half of the gold bars from the house and didn't bring any back, she didn't steal all the gold bars, and she didn't give birth to the child in the wild but brought it back to him. He eventually forgave Xiaomei.
Twelve
Everyone comes to congratulate Xiaomei on her happiness.
Lin Xiangfu said that the last wedding did not include Geng Tie, there were no horoscopes, and there was no sedan, so the wedding must be held again according to the rules.
Lin Xiangfu invited a private school teacher to a banquet and solemnly wrote a Geng Tie and enshrined it on the stove, claiming that if everything at home is safe and everything goes as planned within a month, and nothing happens, it will be considered that the two people are in the same horoscope and have a compatible destiny.
He wouldn’t let Xiaomei go to the field to deliver food because he was afraid of getting pregnant, and he was even more afraid of breaking the bowl and ruining the relationship between the couple; The hand destroyed Geng Tie.
Xiaomei had been worried that she would not be able to give birth to a son for him. At night, she wore Lin Xiangfu’s clothes and watched her shadow walk around the well in an attempt to turn the female fetus in her belly into a male fetus. , but Lin Xiangfu shouted back and concluded that he could not give birth to a son to continue the incense of the Lin family.
Lin Xiangfu said that he could have another son in the future, but Xiaomei lowered his head and said nothing. He told Xiaomei that he didn't see Xiaomei when he woke up, thinking that she was gone forever, and said that if she left without saying goodbye again, he would definitely carry the child to find her to the ends of the world.
Lin Xiangfu returned home after noon that afternoon. After making sure that the bowl and loom were not broken and the thread was disconnected, he said that the one-month deadline had expired and that nothing had happened at home. It seemed that The two of them are really compatible and their destiny is matched.
