When I was pregnant, my husband gave me a set of books that I always wanted, ten famous books in the world. It's a pity that I only read anna karenine when I was pregnant, but I can't remember the contents of the book except the title named after the heroine.
The goal at the beginning of 20 19 is to read the remaining eight unread episodes. I chose Gone with the Wind first. In my mind, I seem to have seen the title of this book somewhere. Someone around me must have seen it, but I really can't remember it.
Moreover, the title page of the book is a pair of sweet men and women. I really want to know the story about them. I'm also curious why I only use one word to name it, which means "weak water is 3 thousand, just take one scoop of water"
In a word, this book is very attractive to me, and it really suits my appetite.
02
Let me start with two interesting things:
one
I took this book with me in order to finish it on time.
There was a time when I wanted to read novels when I was watching my children at night. As soon as I read a book, the child came over and said, "Mom, don't look at the red flag."
"This is not a red flag floating, just a word, floating."
The child closed the book hard. "Mom, don't look at that fluttering."
I pointed it out to him and said, "In a word, the five-star red flag flutters in the wind, just like a balloon floating in the air, which can't get up to the sky or down to the ground."
Children actually say, "birds."
I was so happy and surprised that I gave him a big kiss.
"Birds are flying, which is different from floating. Floating is a state in which they cannot decide where to go. It can only be decided by external forces. What mom said is wrong. How to explain it? It's just floating with the wind, which is a bit bad. "
I can't even explain it myself.
Secondly,
I am keen on Gone with the Wind every day, so I will go and have a look at Gone with the Wind when I have time.
Mr. Wang asked: Tell me what this book is about.
"A rich girl, because of the war, the family wealth declined, because she wanted, she was forced to do a lot of things that people around her could not tolerate in order to survive. She has been married three times, and in order to achieve her goal, she is a bit unscrupulous. "
Sir, what is particularly incomprehensible is that "this kind of content can also be rated as one of the top ten masterpieces in the world"
"Maybe I didn't explain it well and didn't understand positive energy, but you can always find your own shadow, otherwise your humanity will be like that. Maybe in our daily life, we have a good control. Scarlett knows what she wants, and she takes the most direct way. She is also very helpless, but she is very real. "
It's no fun discussing novels with people who don't read. And books vary according to their own conditions. Just look at it yourself, don't care how much you absorb.
My mother-in-law is from a magazine. It's ok to read it, but the novel can't go on. I feel sleepy and have a headache when I look at it.
If you ask me how to continue reading, I am also forcing myself to read 50 or 100 pages first. As soon as the key figures appear, they will attract me to finish reading.
This is the same as watching TV. I read dozens of pages every day, wondering what happened next and whether the problem was solved.
After watching Gone with the Wind, it took quite a long time. When I got home at night, everyone was still wondering if Scarlett and Rhett had made up. Now that you've made it clear, don't be too tight. Make up quickly. Rhett loves children too much. You should have another child. Stop fooling around and live a good life. We must cherish each other enough.
But the author didn't write it, so I think there is Scarlett in a distant place, she will be very happy and she will get everything she wants.
03
I don't want to say too much about the background of the story, which is equivalent to a simple description of the novel. I just said what I remembered after watching it for 20 days. If there is anything wrong, it is my personal opinion. As I said before, this is what I absorbed from this book. I don't accept anyone's criticism and accusation, and I don't want to discuss it with anyone who has read this book.
Reading has its own fun.
Let me introduce Scarlett's three marriages first.
First marriage: Knowing that her sweetheart Ashley announced her engagement at the dance, Scarlett advised her to elope with her, but Ashley refused her. In a fit of pique, she agreed to marry Charlie, the younger brother of Ashley's wife Melanie. After the war began, men had to go to the battlefield immediately. In order to ease her mood, Scarlett asked to get married as soon as possible, and before Ashley. So she got married in a muddle, and there were many suitors besides Ashley. I think she married Charlie out of revenge anger. Besides, when she married Charlie, she entered the family of Ashley and Melanie. In this big family, Scarlett has the opportunity to get close to Ashley. She's just a little obsessed
Scarlett has been in a mess since she agreed to propose. After a short marriage, Charlie and Ashley both went to the front, but Charlie fell ill and died on the way to the front. Scarlett became a widow of a posthumous child. Only 16 years old.
Second marriage: After the war (Tara was Scarlett's farm, after the war, Scarlett's pillar mother died, her father went crazy, and the family burden fell on her boss), in order to make a living, the rich woman took up farm work without shoes and food. Her fingers are chapped, her toes are frozen and her skin is rough. Obviously, she doesn't look like a big lady. That's it. Tara faces life and death. If she can't pay taxes, Tara will be auctioned off. Tara is Scarlett's life and belief. Scarlett went to town at this time and asked Rhett if he would lend him 300 pounds as his lover. But Rhett is in prison and has no choice but to refuse her. When she didn't know what to do, she met her sister's fiance Frank in the city. Frank has been trying to earn enough money to marry her sister. He also saved some money to buy a sawmill. Scarlett seems to see life. Scarlett knew that even if my sister married Frank, she wouldn't try her best to save Tara as she did. Her sister only cares about her food and clothing. She lied that her sister had someone else and couldn't wait for Frank to marry her. Frank was very sad. In this case, Scarlett kept comforting and seducing Frank, and they got married in a few days. Scarlett only wanted 300 pounds, so she sent it back to Tara to save Tara.
After marriage, Scarlett didn't look like a woman at that time. After she got out of prison, she borrowed money from Rhett, started her own sawmill, and squeezed out all her competitors by virtue of her beauty and eloquence. The only thing she has to do is that she no longer wants to afford food and clothes.
Frank died for her, because on her way home from the sawmill, the black people in the slum tried to rob her and tore up her bra. Frank has always been a member of the Klan and was killed in the battle for her.
In Scarlett's sawmill, Scarlett arranged a manager position for Ashley, just to have reasonable contact with Ashley, and Scarlett wanted to control Ashley all the time.
After she gave birth to a daughter for Frank, Scarlett didn't want any more children. She thinks that if women keep having children, it will delay a lot of things. Luckily, she gave birth to a child for Frank.
Third marriage: Scarlett thinks Rhett just wants what he needs, just like her. A few days after Frank's death, Rhett came to propose. Because Rhett is going on a long trip, he is worried that she will marry someone else, just like he is in prison, but Scarlett married Frank after she got out of prison. After her ex-husband died for her, Scarlett agreed to marry Rhett before her bones were cold, because Rhett was rich.
Rhett is older than Scarlett 17 years old. When Scarlett persuaded Ashley to elope together, Rhett happened to hear everything, and they became enemies from then on. From the first Ashley engagement party, Rhett saw through what kind of girl Scarlett was at a glance. And over the years, Rhett has been fighting with himself. I think Rhett is a typical example. He is very nice, but he mocks her. Rhett always reveals Scarlett's true nature with harsh words. Or how far Rhett lured Scarlett. Rhett loves Scarlett, but he denies it. He always wants to silently squeeze out Ashley's position in Scarlett's mind and replace Ashley. He has done a lot, just like I have been feeding you and criticizing you. Why can't he give it well and make you and me happy?
They have a beautiful daughter, and Rhett is very fond of her. After giving birth to the child, Scarlett asks Rhett not to enter her room again in order to show her loyalty to Ashley.
Scarlett was accidentally pushed down the stairs by the aborted Rhett. Rhett actually blames himself. The two of them kept fighting, kept silent and missed again and again.
When his youngest daughter practiced riding at the age of four, she fell to her death. Rhett was hit hard. He loves the child very much.
After Melanie's death, Scarlett suddenly understood everything, finally got rid of the haze in her dream and found the direction. But when I went home again and wanted to talk with Rhett, Rhett, who really loved Scarlett, finally decided to leave Scarlett because of disappointment. Only then did Scarlett realize that the person she really loved was Rhett, not Ashley, but Rhett, but she didn't know it.

Gone with the Wind was written by American writer Margaret Mitchell. Sharpen a sword every ten years. I have only written this novel in my life, and it will go down in history forever. After reading for decades, it has been selected as the top ten masterpieces in the world by readers, which naturally has its charm.
The heroine has been translated into different names by different translators, but I hope you can remember the name Scarlett.
As a translator, Zhang Wenci wrote a preface entitled "Tomorrow is another day", which comes from the last sentence of this novel.
When she learned that Rhett was leaving, Scarlett thought I had to keep him, but she didn't know what to do. She said something like this: "I'll think about it tomorrow and then go to Tara." Then I will put up with it. Tomorrow, I'll try to get him back. After all, tomorrow is another day. "
The book is finished.
"Tomorrow is another day" is Scarlett's motto.
From a beautiful girl of sixteen to a mature woman of twenty-eight, Scarlett has experienced too much.
Frustrated in love
Cruel war
A hard life
Scarlett's character is a contradictory and tangled body. Her mother was born in a famous family and always wanted to bring her up as a lady with a good family style.
But his father is just an Irish immigrant, generous, rude, informal and grumpy.
Scarlett's blood vessels are full of contradictory blood, which makes her dare to love and hate, dare to set goals, and go forward by hook or by crook.
Through novels, I will especially admire the author. Every novel is a great work of art, full of the author's life's hard work.
05
Some people see valuable advantages in Scarlett, but there are also many people who criticize Scarlett for nothing.
Bishop, an American poet, once said, "Scarlett is not enough under any circumstances. She is stingy, superstitious and selfish, which is almost incomparable. She obviously belongs to her class, but she has a little grace on the surface in her girlhood; As for their feelings, she never enjoyed them. People should have spirit, which she can't understand. As for ideas, what she knows best is the despicable and cunning tricks belonging to the consciousness of small farmers. Based on this, she only values her precious skin, land and money. And these are the things that make her cunning tricks last forever. She had this one in her hand and coveted the other. To this end, she killed a northern soldier who came to steal things, plundered his body, got married several times, bought a sawmill, exploited the captured labor, cheated and ruthlessly sent several people to the west. "
Scarlett was criticized for nothing in his eyes, and what she said seemed to be in pieces was not enough to avenge her.
I feel unfair for Scarlett.
People can't live in a single society. There are no absolute good people and no complete bad people.
I read something like this in a book: man is a polyhedron, and no matter which angle you look at it, you can't see it all. So don't judge anyone easily.
Translator Zhang Wenci also said: Man can only be a polyhedron, and his personality can only be the sum of various personality characteristics.
I see more qualities I envy from the author's hands and Scarlett's body.
06
If Scarlett doesn't like you, then the author has arranged for another woman, Scarlett's rival in love, Ashley's wife Melanie.
The love between female number two and male number two in the book, Ashley and Melanie.
Melanie is Ashley's cousin. When they were very young, they always got married at home. Ashley is personable. If there is no war, she will stay on a generous farm, but after the war, she thinks that a scholar is not suitable for living in the war, so that after the war, Scarlett always tries her best to help their families.
Melanie was the best woman of that period. She's too young. In Scarlett's eyes, she felt that Melanie couldn't have children at all. After Melanie gave birth to her son, the doctor said that she could never have another child, which would kill her.
Melanie is very considerate. After returning to the city again, Melanie was elected as the leader of various groups because of everyone's love. Everyone is willing to chat with her, and all women are willing to revolve around her. Even Rhett thinks Melanie is the only woman who should look like. Even the most beautiful clothes Scarlett wears can't compare with it. Everyone admires Melanie.
Scarlett hated Melanie, and from the moment Ashley refused her and insisted on marrying Melanie, Scarlett wanted Melanie to die.
When Melanie gave birth to the baby, it was the enemy who attacked the city. There is no one but them. Scarlett accompanied Melanie through life and death and took their mother and son to Tara.
Melanie thought, Scarlett is my sister-in-law. Scarlett saved the names of our mother and son.
Scarlett thought, I promised Ashley I would take care of you. If anything goes wrong, I will be ashamed to see Ashley.
Although Melanie is thin and small, she has valuable qualities that Scarlett does not have. Melanie is as brave and hardworking as she is.
Both are equally simple, but they seem to be in the wrong direction.
Melanie thinks everything is simple. Melanie doesn't allow anyone to criticize Scarlett in front of her. Even if her sister-in-law told her that Scarlett had seduced Ashley, Melanie only trusted Scarlett and asked her sister-in-law never to set foot in her house. She is not welcome to come.
Melanie thinks everyone is fine, too. No matter how hateful men are, Melanie can see their kindness in them.
Melanie died because she was pregnant again. The doctor warned Melanie that she was not fit to have children, but Melanie loved children too much. Melanie takes good care of Scarlett's two children. Melanie wanted to give Ashley another daughter, but she died within three months.
With Melanie's death, the novel unlocked everyone's heart.
Ashley found that although he married Melanie because of his family engagement, he found that Melanie had always been her pillar, and he felt that he could not live without Melanie.
Scarlett hurried back from the tourist destination, and Melanie had been waiting to see her for the last time. Until her death, Melanie didn't feel any affection between Ashley and Scarlett. And just like the day the child was born, Melanie entrusted the child to Scarlett's care, hoping that Scarlett would mind Ashley's business.
Scarlett also realized at this moment that since her mother died, her pillar has gone, and Melanie has always been her harbor. Melanie has a very important position in Scarlett's heart. Melanie is Scarlett's only female friend, and she realizes that she loves Rhett instead of Ashley.
"She never understood the two men she loved, so she lost them. Now, she vaguely felt that if Xie Xili passed, she would never fall in love with him again; And if she knew Rhett in the past, she would never lose him. "
07
Why did I decide on such a topic? I think I know Scarlett a little late. If I had known Scarlett before I entered the marriage hall, I think I would have a deeper understanding of marriage.
I like Scarlett very much. Although she has some shameful shortcomings that people spit on, I can't say it. I think I am willing to reach an understanding with her in some ways.
You have to read this novel yourself. Many of what I said is only one-sided. At this time, you need to go into the original text to understand the background of the times and understand the cause of the matter.
Scarlett is fearless and dares to break the rules. She is hard-working and willing to put down her body to do the most tiring and bitter work. She has a strong sense of responsibility. She takes care of Tara's extended family and helps those poor relatives.
The only thing Scarlett didn't do well was that she was too direct and a little out of touch. She didn't think of Rhett earlier, and she was a little headstrong. She wanted everyone to revolve around her, but she chose the wrong way.
Scarlett is so strong, she is even willing to paralyze her own thoughts, not to think about it, rest first, now there is no time to think about those things that make me miserable, and tomorrow is another day.
As for Scarlett's love, I think she is overrated. She has been married three times. For whatever purpose, these three husbands love her and regard her as a treasure.
The reason why I suggest unmarried girls meet Scarlett is that I hope to have a reference in your marriage choice. Scarlett finally knew how she felt about Ashley. "I made a beautiful dress and fell in love with it. Ashley was so handsome and unusual when riding a horse, so I put that suit on him and let him put it on, whether it was suitable or not, and I didn't want to see his true face. I've always liked that suit-it's not him at all. " I think every girl has once admired someone, but she may never have seen it clearly.
Don't marry for money, just like marrying Frank and ruining Frank's life, Scarlett has also been repented by her soul.
When you enter a marriage, you must be honest and learn to communicate. Don't be like Rhett, trying to love hurts your love. Don't be mean. He loves his daughter as much as he loves Scarlett when she was a child. Rhett subverts his love for his daughter, and finally loses her daughter because of doting.
08
In a word, I like this book very much. I don't know when I will reread it this time. I hope I can be like Scarlett in difficult times in the future. "I'll think about it tomorrow ... tomorrow is another day."
At the same time, please cherish the people around you, remember to communicate something, just say it, say yes, and don't be mean.
end
Please take care of yourself when you read this article.
Do what you like, stick to it and see what happens.
