The most scholarly thing can lead you far

The mountains are clear and the water is clear, frost comes at night,

A few trees are deep red and light yellow.

A crane flies above the clouds in the clear sky,

It brings poetry to the blue sky.

These are two poems praising the autumn colors in "Two Autumn Poems" by Liu Yuxi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. More than a thousand years later, the famous female writer Xu Kun quoted these "poetic, literary, magnificent" verses in the opening chapter of her preface to "Smell the Fragrance of Books and Know Women". Indeed, autumn is a beautiful season, and autumn is also a harvest season. It's autumn, and "Smell the Fragrance of Books, Know Women", a collection of Xu Kun's many works, is about to be published, which prompted Xu Kun to write these words about reading. Reading this book, the light of wisdom pervades the lines; reading this book, the thoughts about life flow between the lines. As the author said, "In the process of sorting out the past, let me carefully consider the way I came and clearly think about the way I will go."

Life is fleeting, and looking back a hundred years ago, time is like this Slip away from us silently. But we are always overwhelmed by life. We don’t have much time to calm down, not much time to read, and not much time to inquire about the philosophy of life. Whenever they have time, most of them invite friends and companions to travel around the mountains and rivers, which is called the combination of work and rest. In fact, we can appreciate the true flavor of the mountains and rivers while walking in a combination of work and rest. Whether it is "Preface to the Orchid Pavilion" or "The Drunkard Pavilion", we can feel the joy of Wang Xizhi and others when they gathered in the Orchid Pavilion and the beauty of the surrounding mountains and rivers. Ouyang Xiu was also intoxicated by the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers. He is even more intoxicated with the feeling of having fun with the people.

Yes, it is said that "the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own beauty like jade", and what I like more is "the most scholarly fragrance can lead to a long distance." Although these poems all express the different results that reading brings to people, the fragrance of books in Zhiyuan is already the flower of wisdom that blooms deep in people's hearts and never fades.

"Smell the Scent of Books, Know Women" is a book edited by Xu Kun for the 4th National "Scent of Books" reading activity. The book tells the story of how he went from reading to writing, to reading and writing, then appreciating books, reasoning, and understanding people. It allows us to witness the author's thinking on women's thoughts and spiritual liberation. It is a book that can arouse women's hearts. ***Ming's masterpiece.

The book "Smell the Fragrance of Books and Know Women" is divided into six chapters. The first chapter is my favorite. The theme of the first chapter is "Reading Lights Up a Wisdom Life". This theme is divided into five parts, namely "Reading: Secret Happiness", "Reading Makes People Elegant", "Reading Makes People Establish Correct Values" and "The Era of Picture Books". "Reading" and "Let reading illuminate the future." What I felt most deeply about was the first part "Reading: The Secret Joy".

In the section "Reading: Secret Happiness", it talks about the era in which the author lived. Reading was the only spiritual life and the only way to understand the world, which was secret and happy. The author compares it with the grandmother of the famous female writer Xiao Hong and Tonggeng. Because of cultural differences, their lives are completely different. When she was in the second or third grade of elementary school, she secretly read "Aesop's Fables" handwritten by her eldest aunt, and "Song of Youth" by her younger aunt. Later, she read a large number of Chinese and foreign classics and other books, which laid the foundation for her writing. A solid foundation. Later, the author not only grew into an outstanding writer who won numerous awards, but also became an expert who enjoys special allowances from the State Council. In this regard, the author said with emotion: "My personal growth experience in reading proves that reading changes destiny." I deeply agree with this.

The author Xu Kun and I can be said to be contemporaries. Therefore, I think the description of "Reading: The Secret Joy" is really lifelike, reflecting the lack of spirit of our times and the cherishment and reading of books. I remember when I was in high school, at some point, the girls in my class started secretly reading banned books. If you want to read "Red Rock", "Wild Fire, Spring Wind Fighting the Ancient City", "Storm", etc., you have to exchange them for banned books, and you can only read them for one day. Many students used flashlights to peek under the quilt when they were sleeping. Those who didn't have flashlights at home lit candles and peeked under the quilt. The bedding was burned, and peeking became clear. In exchange, A beating.

Every day during recess, I could only stare longingly at the classmates who had banned books. I hid behind the classroom and read nervously and seriously. I often listened with interest to those classmates who had read banned books and talked about them with great interest. He talked about the parts that interested them, and looked at their knowing laughing faces that burst out from time to time inexplicably. At some point, I discovered that I also had two banned books at home, one was the beginningless and unfinished "Song of Youth", and the other was "The Song of Ouyang Hai". I can finally join the ranks of girls reading banned books. What the students like to watch more is "Song of Youth", which repeatedly talks about the love between Lin Daojing and Lu Jiachuan. The girls' hearts are pounding and their young faces are always blooming with red clouds. Later, "Song of Youth" was passed down and could never be found again. So, my mother confiscated the copy of "The Song of Ouyang Hai". Later, "Song of Ouyang Hai" was seen by an aunt who came to visit. After borrowing it, she disappeared from the world. After a few years, every time I thought about this, my mother said to me with regret: That book might as well be read by your classmates... Looking at my mother's depressed face, I thought my mother's subtext must be If I had known this, why bother at the beginning? Why not let me bring the book to school for us to read, because we are young and it is a good time for us to read.

I don’t know if it was related to exchanging banned books with my classmates. In the blink of an eye, my composition was the best in the class, and I also won the first prize in the school composition competition. . From then on, whenever I had nothing to do, I would go to the school notice board to see if there was any news about the essay contest. Indeed, the days when I have books to read are happy and fulfilling. When the words you read turn into thoughts flowing through the paper, and people clap and applaud when they see it, the joy is far from being explained by these two words: "happiness" and "enrichment."

Later, after I worked in a factory, I joined a reading group, gave speeches, wrote reading essays, and attended a pen meeting at the Ministry of Electronics Industry in Beijing. As my reading progressed, my academic qualifications changed from a college student to an undergraduate. His career changed from a worker to a glorious people's teacher, teaching and educating people to witness the growth of life. In my position as a teacher, I love reading as always and actively guide students to read. They confide their love for reading in "The Days Left in the Words" and "Staying with the Words Forever". At the same time, I also lead and influence others to read by example, and personally participate in various reading activities. Therefore, I was rated as an outstanding individual in the 2013 Chengdu Teacher Reading Activity. It is reading that allows me to gain not only the fragrance of books, but also a heavy and beautiful life.

A book called "Knowing Women by Scent of Books" not only shows the fragrant mental journey of writer Xu Kun, but also a contemporary intellectual woman in China. She can establish a correct worldview and values ??in reading, and reading can illuminate wisdom. Life and reading change the consciousness awakening process of survival and destiny. From the author's personal reading experience and understanding, it all leads us to stay with books, and the most important thing is the fragrance of books that can lead us far.
