Wei Yutong looked at Zhong Jing’s WeChat with a smile on his face.

Being able to get Zhong Jing’s WeChat account is the greatest luck for my birthday today.

The other girls also gathered around him with envious expressions on their faces.

On the other side, brother-in-law Wang Qiang sent Zhong Jing away.

Zhong Jing continues his errands

······

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for completing the sub-professional task - running fifty errands and receiving a reward - a random item."

This time, the reward is a random item.

In addition to the items, there is also money, which has been stored in Among bank cards, this money is the least valued by Zhong Jing.

So······

No need to worry too much

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for extracting the item——《"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes""

This time I actually picked up a book

《"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes", formerly known as"Yuewei Notes", is a short novel in classical Chinese written in the form of notes between the 54th year of Qianlong and the third year of Jiaqing by Ji Yun, who was a scholar in the Hanlin Academy of the Qing Dynasty.

In terms of time,"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes" mainly collects and compiles various folk tales about foxes, ghosts and gods, karma and retribution, admonishing good and punishing evil, etc. that were circulated around the time, or strange anecdotes heard personally; in space Geographically, its scope covers the whole of China.

At the same time,"Yuewei Cottage Notes" intentionally imitates the simple and simple style of the Song Dynasty note novels. It once enjoyed the same status as"Dream of Red Mansions" in history.》、《"Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" enjoys a high reputation at home and abroad

《Various characters are described in"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes". For example, in the first volume, a clan brother of Cao Zhuxu was described. He was calm and calm, and defeated the ferocious and changeable facial makeup of the female Diao again and again, and finally finally The maid, Guizhou and Donkey, was so poor that she was ashamed and disappeared.

The author emphasizes:"If you are not afraid, your mind will be calm; if your mind is calm, your mind will be intact; if your mind is intact, your violent energy will be incapable of doing anything."

In the third volume, there is a story about a young rural woman named Sister Li who was walking at night and encountered bad guys following her. In a critical moment, she was calm, witty and calm, and she quickly and decisively hid in the tomb to remove her makeup while sticking out her tongue, pretending to be a prostitute. Instead, she frightened the bad guys and escaped smoothly.

Stories like the above can give today’s readers some inspiration to establish righteousness and

《"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes" also contains some chapters describing the crimes committed by nobles, wealthy businessmen, and bully landlords relying on their power. For example, in Volume 20, it is written about a wealthy businessman who, seeing the beauty of someone else's bride, immediately became evil and set a trap to steal the bride, causing her husband to die of grief, anger and melancholy.

The author fully exposes the insidious methods of wealthy businessmen and the evil forces supported by money.

In the fourth volume, it is written that after a businessman became rich, he refused to help an old man who he had relied on for more than ten years and who funded him to become rich in business. He was unkind and ungrateful because of his wealth. A sorcerer named Yang took the money away and returned it to the old man.

These chapters fully reveal the extremely acute social contradictions at that time, and also expose the moral decline of these people; they are shameless, profit-seeking, decadent and ugly, and completely ignored.

《"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes" also touches on some bad styles and bad habits of the feudal literati class. For example, in Volume 13, there is an article describing writing epitaphs for others. There are so many flattering words that even the ghost of the tomb owner feels troubled. Ashamed, he laughed dumbly.

Another example is the story about a fake celebrity in the seventh volume. He is empty-minded and has no knowledge or skills. However, his home is filled with antiques and treasures, the Four Treasures of the Study, chess, calligraphy and painting. Its artificiality and pretense of elegance make it annoying and tacky.

Ji Yun is undoubtedly an important writer and thinker in Chinese history. Mr. Lu Xun commented on this book in"A Brief History of China":"Ji Xiaolan has a long writing style, many secret books, and a broad-minded mind, so no one can take it away later. He actually dares to use his articles to attack society. He is really a very courageous person."

《The main achievements of"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes" are also as Lu Xun said:"Wonderful thoughts and witty words are enough to explain Yi; occasional research and analysis also have insights."

Due to the author's good writing style and high status, it had a great influence on the literary world at that time.

······

However,"Yuewei Cottage Notes" is not as famous as"Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", so there are basically no remakes.

"Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" is different. It has been remade countless times.

In particular, A Chinese Ghost Story has become a classic among classics.

Many classic ghost novels are remakes of"Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", such as A Chinese Ghost Story, Painted Skin, and Laoshan Taoist Priest, etc.

Maybe it has something to do with the story of"Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes", which is not that interesting.

The notes obtained by Zhong Jing are texts from the Qing Dynasty.

The writing on it is also in classical Chinese.

It was written by Ji Xiaolan himself and is very precious.

There are also Ji Xiaolan's notes and seals on it.

Considered a manuscript

After putting away the things, Zhong Jing stored the electric car, waiting for the next use, and then drove home.

After dinner in the evening, he was lying on the bed bored and found that Wei Yutong had sent him a message.
