Anecdotes of Bingxin

From 65438 to 0929, after their marriage, Mr. Wu and Bing Xin were even more distracted, and almost all their thoughts and energies were spent on learning knowledge and teaching (Wu was also a professor in yenching university and Tsinghua University at that time), so he seemed "bookish" when dealing with some daily affairs. One day, Bing Xin and Wu Wenzao went to the city to visit Bing Xin's father. After arriving at Bing Xin's father's house, Bing Xin asked Mr. Wu to go to the streets to buy "Saqima" (a snack) for his children and double noodles for his father. At that time, Mr. Wu's children were still babbling. When it comes to "Saqima", they don't say "Saqima", but generally only "Ma". Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu will only say "buy a horse" when he arrives at the pastry shop.

It's not over yet, Mr. Wu When he arrived at the cloth shop, he said he wanted to buy feather yarn over ten feet. Fortunately, the salespersons of the "Daoxiang Village" dim sum shop and the "Dongsheng Lane" cloth shop where Mr. Wu went at that time were very familiar with the Bingxin family. He felt puzzled and called Bing Xin's family to ask. Bing Xin knew that Mr. Wu had played another big joke, and the family couldn't help laughing when they heard about it. Later, Bing Xin said to his father, "What a fool he is!" Bing Xin's father smiled and said, "I didn't pick this stupid uncle for you!" " "To this, bing xin had to admit.

On another occasion, the Bingxin family enjoyed flowers in front of the building where they lived. Mr. Wu's mother asked Bing Xin to call Mr. Wu Wenzao, who was still studying hard, out of the study and let him have a rest. Unexpectedly, although Mr. Wu came out, his heart was still learning. Standing in front of the lilac tree, he asked Bing Xin blankly, "What kind of flower is this?" Bing Xin deliberately smiled and replied, "This is Xiang Ding." So Mr. Wu nodded and said, "Ah, Xiang Ding." Everyone present laughed.

After the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Bing Xin's family moved to Chenggong, Yunnan. One weekend evening, Mr. Mei Yiqi, then president of Tsinghua University, his wife and several classmates from Tsinghua University came to Bing Xin's home as a guest. During the chat, Mr. Bing Xin wrote this poem on the spot, venting his "resentment" against Mr. Wu for Tsinghua University (since he was admitted to Tsinghua School on 19 16 and went to study in the United States on 1923, Mr. Wu studied and lived in Tsinghua School, the predecessor of Tsinghua, for nearly eight years). President Mei and several Tsinghua students laughed their heads off after hearing this poem and related stories. President Mei also smiled and continued Bing Xin's poem in two sentences:

Ms. Bing Xin has poor eyesight.

How can a bookworm deserve a social butterfly?

According to Bing Xin, all the students in Tsinghua who were present at that time smiled proudly after listening to the continuation poem, but Bing Xin himself had to admit that he "committed suicide" again. (Excerpted from Qilu Evening News)
