Lin Jinlan Gu Ye: affliction to see true love, the years know the heart, with 60 years to witness, a lifetime of love for only one person

Perhaps there is such a person, unloved since childhood, grew up, the waves of the times and gave him a hard blow, and when he pulled himself together, he lost his favorite pen. To say that this is all the will of God is simply unbelievable. Although a person's tragic experience cannot escape fate, more often than not, the times themselves foretell a person's future. Although the years have not spared him, he did his best to love, and thus wrote a life that is needlessly bittersweet. He is Lin Chinlan, the "Sage of Short Stories", who has been buried by history. Young people should be self-improvement In 1923, Lin Jinlan was born in Wenzhou City, a family with many children. The Lin family had ten children, four boys and six girls. Lin Jinlan was neither the oldest nor the youngest, so he received little love from his parents, which also made him more independent than his siblings. Although Lin Chinlan did not receive all the love from his parents when he was young, his life was y influenced by his father's generation. Lin Jinlan was much smarter than his peers when he was young, plus his grandfather nurtured him carefully, not only teaching him to read the Four Books and Five Classics, but also giving him lectures on various classics and masterpieces. So he laid a solid foundation of knowledge at a young age, which helped him a lot in his later studies. In fact, it was his father, Lin Bingkun, who had the most profound influence on Lin Chinlan. Lin Bingkun is also an intellectual, founded the Wenzhou Canghe Elementary School in 1914, as the principal. Unfortunately, he was not willing to be held responsible for the crimes of the times, and eventually drowned himself. When Lin Chinlan talked about his father's influence on him, he always said, "My father did only one thing in his life, which was to run a school, an elementary school; and I also did only one thing in my life, to write novels, short stories." In 1937, Lin Chinlan graduated from the Junior High School of Wenzhou High School, and at the age of 15, he began to live independently away from home. It wasn't until December that Lin joined the ranks of patriots and enrolled in a school where military man Su Yu was the principal. Picture | Young Lin Chinlan's Bitterness and Happiness At school, he was an enthusiastic performer in various arts and crafts productions, which were well received by his teachers and friends. At the same time, it was also because of his performances that he met the only woman in his life, Gu Ye. In addition to her versatility, Gu Ye is also a very sensual woman. It is said that great people work harder, and so does Gu Ye. Already an excellent student in her own right, she later became the inaugural student of the Central Conservatory of Music. The sweetness of love was the icing on the cake of life for her. Being born in a chaotic world, it was not easy to meet a soulmate. Lin Chinlan, however, stayed with Gu Ye for the rest of his life. They have always maintained their love for each other, whether in good times or bad, wherever they go, they always walk side by side and never leave each other. Picture | Lin Zhenlan and Gu Ye Three years later, Lin Zhenlan and Gu Ye both went to Yan'an, deciding to contribute to a greater cause and choosing to continue their education at the nearest school. Afterward, Lin Jinlan enrolled in the National Institute of Social Education, where he became acquainted with Liang Shiqiu, a renowned literary figure in modern China, and Dai Ailian, a pioneer of contemporary dance. Under the influence of these famous writers, Lin's literature improved greatly. Interestingly, Dai Ailian personally taught Lin Chinlan how to dance ballet, and he appeared in many performances, which were frequently acclaimed. Perhaps there is a hint of strangeness in ballet for men, but Lin Chinlan was an exception. Lin Chinlan looks like Zhao Dan from afar, and Sun Daoling from close up, such a beautiful man with a beautiful ballet, there is really no fault. According to Liu Xinwu recalled: "sitting with a sitting phase, standing with a standing phase, but no pretense, known as 'beautiful man', really no honor." It can be said that Lin Jinlan's looks and temperament were among the best at that time. In 1946, Lin Chinlan married Gu Ye. For this marriage, he could say with a clear conscience, "I have only one woman in my life, and this woman, is Gu Ye." But the good times didn't last long, and the current situation mixed a little bit of bitterness into the sweetness of Lin Chinlan and Gu Ye. Just one year after Lin Chinlan and Gu Ye's marriage, Lin Chinlan was implicated and arrested and imprisoned. Lin Chinlan spent more than a year in prison, his wife Gu Ye was worried about him every day, and insisted on sending Lin Chinlan meals every day, for fear that he would be wronged in prison. Regarding Lin Chinlan's life in prison, writer Deng Youmei's "Words about Lin Chinlan" recounts, "I swear to God, Mr. Lin is the most faithful man in love and the most happily married man I have ever seen. He was taken to prison in Taiwan, nine deaths, his wife came to the prison every day to bring food, set a great ambition of willing to **** death, lifted up the case, never had a verbal dispute." Perhaps true love is what Lin Jinlan and Gu Ye look like. One is in danger, the other person will do their best to protect him. And the other person understands the other person's dedication, the two people live and die with ****, working in the same direction. I don't know if it is God's intention to do so, so that this pair of lovers to avoid the pain of love. Just a year after Lin Jinlan's imprisonment, he was released from jail, but it was actually the authorities who released the wrong person. When the authorities found out, they ordered a manhunt for Lin Chin Lan. Luckily, he was resourceful enough to hide in the dark cabin of a coal ship, which prevented him from being searched by them. After that, Lin Zhenlan returned to Shanghai and was able to reunite with Gu Ye. After a year of imprisonment and an overnight escape from life and death, Lin Zhenlan was still in a state of shock. Luckily, with Gu Ye's company and care, Lin Jinlan's life was able to get back on track so quickly. A Lone Ranger on the Edge of the Literary World In 1950, Lin Chinlan returned to Beijing and began a relationship with the city's literary world. He worked at the Beijing People's Art Theater and the Beijing Federation of Literary Associations as an assistant to the People's Artist Lao She. According to Li Qing, then resident vice-chairman of the Beijing Writers' Association, "Lao She commissioned him to go to the countryside to collect materials and assist in interviews. He also helped Mr. Lao She transcribe materials. At that time, Lao She thought very highly of him and Wang Zengqi." This shows that Lin Chinlan was also very capable. It was in this year that Lin Chinlan published his first one-act play, The Motherland is Calling, in the Sunan Daily. Although this work did not make Lin Chinlan a big hit, he laid a certain foundation for his position in the literary world. It was not until 1957 that Lin Chinlan reached a peak in his life. He published a collection of his major plays from the intervening years as Bugu, and reaped the recognition of the literary world. More happily, however, his only daughter with Gu Ye, Lin Bugu, was born in the same year. Lin Chinlan named this baby girl ""Bugu"" as well. Two "Bugu" in one year, adding joy to joy. After that, Lin Chinlan realized that writing plays did not suit his nature, so he turned to writing novels and essays. 1958 saw the publication of his first collection of novels, Spring Thunder. His first collection of novels, Spring Thunder, was published in 1958, and because of the originality of its themes, Spring Thunder and Taiwan Girl became his masterpieces, and he began to make a name for himself in the literary world. Even Lao She himself said, "Among the writers in Beijing, there are two who may write a little in the future, one is Wang Zengqi and the other is Lin Jinlan." So it seems that Lao She's vision was really good. Although Lin Zhenlan and Wang Zengqi were known together as the "Twins of Literature," it was also as the writer Liu Xinwu later said, ""Wang Zengqi has received the honor he deserves, while Lin Zhenlan has not." Wang Zengqi's writings are known for their clear and bright beauty, while Lin Chinlan writes works that focus more on the current state of the world and are more inclined to tear apart the true nature of reality, a different kind of beauty. Figure | Lin Chinlan and Wang Zengqi For seven or eight years, Lin's pen was always in his hand, and he wrote many good works one after another. But in 1966, he put down his pen, and he did so for eleven years. During the eleven years of dropping out of the pen, he had grievances and intolerance, but still insisted on dropping out of the pen to express his firm position. During those eleven years, Lin Chinlan also went to the southwest to visit his teacher Shen Congwen. At the time of parting, Shen Congwen said to him earnestly, "I'll send you eight words: walk ten thousand miles and read ten thousand volumes of books." These eight words sent by Shen Congwen invariably encouraged Lin Jinlan at that time, so that he did not lose his most basic conscience in that era of human nature extinction. Lin Jinlan dropped out of the pen for eleven years, the writing is still powerful. He published "Headshot" in 1981, which won the "National Short Story Award" that year, ushering in another peak in his writing career. With the release of his novella collection Short Stool Bridge Style, Lin Chinlan was hailed by the literary world as the ""Sage of Short Stories"". He advocated: If others often say it, I will not say it, but create it. This was a unique way of writing at that time, and his gradually matured writing style enabled him to stick to himself and be unique in the ever-changing trend of novels. In addition, when it comes to Lin Chinlan's creative language, it is also a special feature. Wang Zengqi once commented on this: "Lin Chinlan not only speaks Wenzhou dialect, but also understands the beauty of Wenzhou dialect. His integration of Wenzhou dialect into the language of literature is, I think, a success." There are not many writers who are able to inherit Chinese cultural traditions in their literary creation. Mr. Lin Chinlan has written the beauty of Wenzhou dialect in his ingenious way, and he has written a unique work with the deepest love of the countryside. Picture | Mr. Lin's Study Only wine and love can't be beat In fact, besides writing articles, Lin also loved to drink wine, especially high level white wine. Mr. Lin's only daughter, Lin Bugu, is also one of his loyal drinking buddies. In Lin Jinlan's home, there is a small world exclusively for father and daughter. There are two special walls there, one side is filled with books from top to bottom, and the other side is full of wine bottles. What's more interesting is that the wall lamp in the bathroom of the house is also in the shape of wine bottles. These were all designed by Limburgo. Father and daughter often drank wine together and talked about everything. Later Lin Bugu recalled, "When I went to the journalism department of the National People's Congress (NPC), my teacher said I had to get close to life so that people who didn't want to talk to you could talk to you. So I ran to the counter selling sorghum soju on the street and drank it while chatting with the old men. When my father found out, he came and said, 'Go home and drink, I'll drink with you.' So we both drank to each other almost every day." ""Dad said that really good wine has to go down the throat tube, and you can't appreciate its flavor until you turn your mouth there." Between Lin Chinlan and Lin Bugu, wine was like a bond that brought the two closer together. Of course, Wang Zengqi was also one of Lin Chinlan's drinking buddies. In his later years, Wang Zengqi was not allowed to drink due to his poor health, but Lin Chinlan and his good friend Chen Jianguong still often dragged Wang Zengqi out for a secret drink. Lin Chinlan (third from left) and his classmates at Yanluo Mountain in 1936 Because Lin Chinlan loved to drink and collect wine bottles, many of his friends who knew him well would remember this habit of his, and whenever a banquet was over, his best friend would say, "Save the bottles for Lin Chinlan." Although Lin Jinlan loved wine all his life, he never got drunk, not only had a good capacity for wine, but also a good taste in wine. He had many drinking buddies, and was also known as one of the "Four Immortals of Wine in Literature" along with writers Gao Xiaosheng, Wang Zengqi and Lu Wenfu. It is important to realize that Lin Chinlan's love of drinking was not to drown his sorrows in alcohol, but that he really loved it. But in his later years, the death of Gu Ye certainly brought Lin Chinlan a bitter blow. in 1997, his wife, Gu Ye, suffered from cerebral atrophy and cerebral vascular sclerosis. This complex disease left the doctors clueless, and under the medical conditions at that time, it was impossible to cure it. With no other choice, Lin Jinlan could only take good care of Gu Ye every day. Looking at his wife lying on the hospital bed, his heart didn't have a moment without pain, and he only hoped that that day could come later. The woman who has accompanied him for sixty years, he really can't let her go. In 2004, Lin Jinlan's beloved wife Gu Ye finally left him. He looked at Gu Ye's remains and refused to leave for a long time, only wanting to see her one more time. Maybe Gu Ye can continue to live for seven years is already a miracle, it must be Gu Ye also do not want to let Lin Jinlan alone on earth. Accompanied by sixty years of loving couple separated overnight, Lin Jinlan's pain is beyond words. The sad thing is, not waiting for him to slow down from the grief, and then heard the news of the death of his drinking buddy Lu Wenfu. In the face of this situation, Lin Jinlan once lamented to his friend Cheng Shaoguo, "Xiaosheng is gone, Zeng Qi is gone, and now Wenfu is gone. People say we are the Four Immortals in the literary world of wine, ahem, only one of me is left." Unfortunately, except for Lin Chinlan's robust health, the other three drinking buddies all passed away one after another. Lin Qianlan watched one after another drinking friends left themselves, the sorrow in their hearts is afraid that with more wine can not be extinguished. Keep to the end, the only person left on the table is him, in the past in the wine to talk about literature, now talk about literature is not there, as if the wine has changed its flavor. In 2009, Lin Chinlan passed away at the age of eighty-six due to heart disease and lung failure. A long time later, her daughter Lin Bugu recalled the minutes before her father Lin Chinlan's death and remained emotional, saying, "The last resuscitation took less than 10 minutes. Before that the old man had been very conscious, holding our couple's hands and telling us off and on to 'be strong' and 'be open-minded'. My tears kept pouring down, but my father said: 'Be happy! The wanderer is going back! "Everyone comes crying, but should leave with a smile on their face. That's what I was supposed to say to myself, and Dad did it." Lin Bugu said. Lin Chinlan has honored the rule of doing only one thing in his life as a human being, and has finally come full circle. He only writes in his life, loves only one person in his life, loves drinking in his life, and treats his friends sincerely in his life. As a matter of fact, it is not easy for a person to focus on only one thing in his whole life, and how many people can keep his original intention all the way? Rarely, Lin Jinlan has done it.
