At this time, Wang Yanan opened the book and read it attentively.

Madam Yang Jiang was afraid that the water would get cold, so she added hot water to the bucket from time to time. Qian Zhongshu rubbed his feet together while reading the manuscript, and felt a rare sense of comfort.

Feng Youlan's Preface to "Sansongtang" "Pan Guangdan's biggest hobby is curiosity, and told an incident: Pan Guangdan had never eaten rat meat. One day, he had a sudden idea, and asked his family to rummage through boxes and cabinets, dig three feet into the ground, catch a few rats, and cook them. to satisfy curiosity.
In Chongqing, brother Pan Guangdan was a banker. Hearing that his brother ate rat meat, he felt very sad and quickly wired some money to ask him to buy pork.
He also wrote to warn him that his life would be tense in the future, but when he called, he would never do this again, which made the whole of China scold him for not taking care of his brother.
Zhang Taiyan likes to eat smelly things and regards smelly food as delicious food.
Once, the painter Qian Huafo brought a pack of purple-black stinky salted eggs, and Zhang Dalue actually said: "Just tell me what you want to write."
Two days later, Qian Huafo brought another jar of extremely smelly amaranth stems. Zhang was even more happy and said, "If you have paper, just use it to write." Qian asked him to write the four words "Five Nationalities Harmony", and he wrote it in one breath. More than forty pictures.
Later Qian successively brought stinky peanuts, stinky winter melon and other items, and asked Zhang to write more than 100 pieces. No matter what the content was, Zhang actually obeyed him.
Zhang Taiyan’s most unique hobby was to heal people. He not only prescribed medicines for relatives or neighbors, but also for the revolutionaries Zou Rong and Sun Yat-sen.
But because of his lack of clinical experience, although his words sounded reasonable, he could not cure the disease at all, but he was always complacent.
If a friend came to his home and occasionally mentioned that he had a toothache or a stomachache, he would immediately examine the person, prescribe medicine, and force the person to take the medicine according to the prescription.
And when he used medicine, he only spent one to two or eight dollars, which made no one dare to take his medicine.
There are many honest and joyful things in Huang Kan's conduct.
The most endearing thing about him is his preference for fine food and fine wine.
Once, Huang Kan invited someone to a restaurant for dinner. After the guest of honor was seated, he suddenly heard someone speaking loudly in the next room.
Huang Kan looked over and found that it was his student, and he was quite unhappy in his heart.
Huang Kan’s dignity as a teacher is well-known.
The sharp-eyed disciple also discovered his teacher and knew that his noisy Meng Lang had annoyed the teacher, so he hurried over to say hello.
Of course Huang Kan kept a straight face and scolded him, and the topic seemed to have endless meaning.
Seeing this situation, the disciple hurriedly called the waiter and said in front of his husband: "Didn't I tell you that my husband wanted to treat guests here? Why not serve ten years of Huadiao fine wine? Today we are treating guests The money will be recorded in my account." Upon hearing this, Huang Kan's scolding stopped abruptly.
Gu Hongming liked his wife Shugu’s little feet. He often asked her to take off her shoes and lower her head, as if smelling the fragrance of flowers. When he needed inspiration for writing, he would call Shugu into the study and ask her to take care of her feet. Put it on the stool prepared in advance, pinch it now and then, enjoy yourself, and your literary thoughts will spring up, and your wonderful pen will shine.
Gu once talked about it and said: "The foot binding of the previous generation was not a tyranny. My wife's little feet are my stimulants." Kang Youwei gave Gu a piece of "Satisfied" "Happy" banner, Gu said: "Kang Youwei understands my heart deeply."
Jin Yuelin loves raising chickens.
When he was in Yunnan, he raised a very large fighting cock. This fighting cock could stretch its neck up and eat at the same table as Jin Yuelin. He took it calmly and was amazing.
Jin Yuelin also collected big pears and pomegranates everywhere, and used them to compete with other children in cockfighting. If he lost, he would give the pears or pomegranates to the children, and he would buy them again.
There are many crickets placed in the corner of his house. Surprisingly, these expensive crickets are food for his chickens.
Lin Yutang loves cigarettes, and he is probably unique in the history of today's literature in expounding all the benefits of cigarettes.
His praise of cigarettes began in the late 1930s and early 1940s when he was the chief editor of "The Analects of Confucius", especially the Qing Dynasty scholar and chief editor of "Sikuquanshu" whom he admired. Ji Xiaolan will never forget to mention the extra-large pipe.
Lin Yutang may have been greatly tempted by the pleasure of putting one or two cigarettes in Ji Xiaolan's pipe and eating for an hour or two.
"A cigarette after a meal is better than a living god" is his "patent".
In the Analects of Confucius, he and his colleagues made a pact not to persuade others to quit smoking. In fact, not only did he not persuade others to quit smoking, but he also encouraged others to smoke.
When it comes to quitting smoking, he always does the opposite.
Liang Qichao advocated a fun-oriented outlook on life. There is a famous saying: "Only by reading can you forget to play mahjong, and only by playing mahjong can you forget to study." It is conceivable that Liang Qichong is very attractive to mahjong.
Mei Yiqi also preferred this game. The "Collected Works of Mei Yiqi" published by Tsinghua Publishing House records that he played mahjong 85 times from 1956 to 1957, about once a week.
In these 85 times, Principal Mei won 25 times, lost 46 times, tied 14 times, and lost 1,650 yuan.
Back then, a bowl of Yangchun noodles only cost 1 yuan.
Hu Shi’s hobbies are very interesting. In addition to playing mahjong, he also likes to be a man of the moon. He has arranged many happy celebrity marriages. He has a "Mandarin Duck Book" signed by Zhao Yuanren and his wife, Xu Zhimo Couple, Shen Congwen and his wife, Qian Jiaju and his wife...
The master’s profound academic attainments are admirable, but his hobbies in life make people laugh.
Masters are also human beings, with their own true temperaments. On the contrary, it is these hobbies that make them highly respected and more cute.
