Wang Chen, the author of "Yang Jiang's Biography: Time goes by, but my heart remains the same". There are many books about Ms. Yang Jiang's autobiography, and her love affair with Qian Zhongshu is also very enviable and admirable. After watching her "The Three of Us" and other movies, when he saw a talented man and a beautiful woman meet in Tsinghua University, he made an appointment with her and said: I am not engaged. She said that Fei Xiaotong was not her boyfriend, which was quite interesting.

The person who wrote "Country China" once liked her very much and pursued her. They and Lin Huiyin were neighbors, celebrities, and talented people were always surrounded by talented people.
When I read that she was sent to the countryside, all her manuscripts were taken away and damaged, and she was asked to clean toilets and work in the farm, and her daughter was divorced.

Her daughter left them first due to illness, and Zhongshu was in the hospital at this time. Not long after, the person who loved her deeply also left, leaving her alone in the world.
It was extremely sad to think about it, but she did not become depressed. Instead, she picked up the masterpiece - "Don Quixote" and began to re-translate the book she had given up halfway. I admire her very much. She is talented and capable.
I admire that I have survived alone for decades and then have my own hobbies and interests and realize my own value.

At the end of your life, can you be as indifferent as her? "I won't argue with anyone, and I don't care to argue with anyone. I love nature, and the second is art. I bake my hands with the fire of life to keep warm. When the fire dries up, I am ready to leave." Realize your own value, and then be safe Accept death as naturally and calmly as the fire in a furnace is about to go out.

When I didn't understand her story, I once copied her words in my notebook. Maybe life is like this. The prosperity is gone and the world belongs to you. Only inner peace is the most authentic. Only you belong to it. Own.
This is the book I read when I was extremely lost and sad. According to my plan, I finished it in less than a week ahead of schedule. You still have to set a lot of small goals for yourself. If you achieve them in the process, you will have more confidence and fulfillment.

People always look forward. I have almost forgotten my state of mind at that time, all the things I was lucky enough to have and the things I killed with my own hands. That's okay, because it wasn't the right time. Below are some excerpts from the book:
