Soon, Lin Yutang published "The Analects of Confucius" and became a "humor master". Lu Xun could not understand it even more. He believed that in the struggle between blood and fire, there was no humor at all. "As long as I live, I must pick up a pen and retaliate." Their pistols." Despite their ideological differences, the two still had the opportunity to meet frequently in private settings. Once Li Liewen, the editor of "Free Talk", sent Yu Dafu and Wang Yingxia to the "Wind and Rain Thatched Cottage" in Hangzhou. Yu Dafu is a suave person. He and Wang Yingxia, who is known as the most beautiful woman in Jiangnan, are known as the "Fuchun River Immortal Couple." Yu Dafu moved to Hangzhou this time to avoid others' pursuit of Wang Yingxia. But the "stormy thatched cottage" did not protect them from the wind and rain, so the two fell in love vigorously, and then broke up vigorously. Lin Yutang and Liao Cuifeng arrived last. As soon as he sat down, Yutang asked Lu Xun with a smile: "Did Mr. Zhou use another pen name again?" Lu Xun's articles were often shot by the Press Inspection Office, so in order to save unnecessary trouble, he could only keep changing his pen names. He has used about 150 pen names successively, but articles signed by Lu Xun are uncommon. Lin Yutang and others knew this and often enjoyed guessing what new alias Lu Xun had recently. "How can you see it?" Lu Xun asked. "I see there is a new 'Xu Maoyong', and it's you." Yutang said confidently. Lu Xun laughed loudly. He pointed at a young man in his early 20s and said, "You didn't guess right this time. Look, Xu Maoyong's real body is right here." Somewhat similar. The young man stood up sheepishly and said hello to Yutang. Everyone burst into laughter when they saw that the humorist had his peepshow removed on the spot. Yutang lit his pipe and laughed. After the meal, everyone started smoking cigarettes in unison, and for a while, the smoke filled the air. Yutang also took two puffs of cigarettes. Cuifeng forced him to quit, but he failed several times to quit, so he just let it go. Seeing everyone puffing away, a light flashed in Yutang's mind, yes! "Mr. Zhou, how many cigarettes do you smoke every day?" he asked Lu Xun enthusiastically. "Probably a lot, I haven't counted it yet." Yutang looked excited and was about to ask further. "Are you looking for materials for "The Analects of Confucius"?" Lu Xun's tone suddenly turned cold. Yutang published the article "My Quit Smoking" in the latest issue of "The Analects of Confucius". Lu Xun publicly criticized Yutang for making a fuss about life details such as smoking and quitting smoking, which was a retreat. Today's China is not suitable for this kind of Western-style humor. "I'm going to make a broadcast!" Yutang didn't notice the change in Lu Xun's tone and answered honestly. "This is actually very boring," Lu Xun said unhappily: "To squeeze out two humorous books every month is not humorous in itself, and how can we run a good publication!" "The Analects" is like He was Yutang's child, and he was quite proud of it. Such a large basin of cold water was poured down on him, and he was so angry that he even forgot to defend himself. Everyone else stopped talking. The noisy room suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly tense. When Li Liewen saw this scene, he quickly interrupted, "Dafu, you are going to Hangzhou this time. I don't know when you will come back? Come on, let me toast you!" Everyone quickly raised their glasses and toasted to Dafu. Yu Dafu also deliberately relaxed the atmosphere, drinking one cup at a time. Wang Yingxia couldn't stand it and said, "Dafu has been in poor health recently. He follows the doctor's orders not to drink alcohol!" Someone joked: "Is this ban on alcohol the wife's order or the doctor's order?" This was a good joke. At the right time, everyone burst out laughing, and the tense atmosphere was finally calmed down by the alcohol. The two ladies present, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Yu, lost no time in exchanging their experiences in housekeeping, and the atmosphere became more and more relaxed. Lin Yutang returned to normal and started talking nonsense. He talked about anecdotes about the European Middle Ages, where nobles and knights used iron "chastity belts" to lock the lower parts of women before going to war. He also talked about Emperor Yongzheng and the Manchu wedding, with witty remarks, like a goddess scattering flowers, and everyone was Overwhelmed. Before leaving, Li Liewen said the real purpose of the treat was to invite all the literary talents to write more articles for "Freedom Talk" in the next year.Lu Xun, who had always been serious, joked: "If you can publish a scolding article, I can write it every day!" "Who are you scolding?" "There are many scoldings!" "How to scold?" "There are many ways to scold." "What Lu Xun scolded is not bad in the end." There was another burst of laughter. Wang Yingxia also came to join in the fun, "Although Mr. Zhou can curse, he can't scold his son!" Zhou Haiying was not yet 5 years old at the time. Lin Yutang had long forgotten his previous embarrassment, and took over the conversation and said, "Lu Xun's son will never be loyal." Because he was talking about children, Lu Xun was not angry after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Yes, my children also scolded me. Once, he asked harshly: "Dad! Why don't you sleep at night and sleep during the day?" Another time, he came to me and asked, "Dad, when will you die?" All the books can be his; when he is most dissatisfied, he criticizes me: "What kind of father is this?" I really have no way to deal with him."
