Sun Yat-sen (1866-1925), a great revolutionary forerunner in China, moved to Shanghai to rally after a failed revolutionary action, waiting for a chance to make a comeback.
One day, a few revolutionary comrades were idle and bored, so they gathered four people to play mahjong for entertainment. Unfortunately, Sun Yat-sen caught him. They knew that they had made a mistake, and they were frightened. You look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do.
Faced with such an embarrassing scene, Sun Yat-sen not only continued to ask them to play, but also said with a smile, "Go ahead, playing mahjong is very similar to our revolutionary uprising. It doesn't matter if we lose this game, but we can look forward to the next game, which will always be full of opportunities and hopes. "
After the victory of the Revolution of 1911, Sun Yat-sen became the interim president. Once, dressed in casual clothes, he went to the Senate to attend an important meeting. However, the guard on duty in front of the gate saw the visitor dressed simply, so he stopped him and shouted sharply, "There is an important meeting today, only the president and members of parliament can go in." What are you going to do as a bold person? " Let's go, let's go, or the president will be angry and will definitely punish you! "
Hearing this, Sun Yat-sen couldn't help laughing and asked, "How do you know that the president will be angry?" As he spoke, he showed his certificate.
When the guard looked at the document, he realized that the man in ordinary clothes was actually the president. The guard was frightened, threw himself on the ground and repented repeatedly.
Sun Yat-sen hurriedly helped the guard to get up and said humorously, "Don't be afraid, I won't hit you."
2. Zhu Kezhen
During the Republic of China, Zhu Kezhen, a scientist, was the president of Zhejiang University and was deeply loved by teachers and students.
One day, in the program of the get-together, there was a "lecture by the principal".
When Zhu Kezhen saw it, he thought it was bad to have a "lecture" at the party. Therefore, he said in his speech: "Students, the word' training' comes from Sichuan, which is also nonsense."
Everyone listened and burst into laughter.
3. Feng Yuxiang
Feng Yuxiang (1882— 1948) studied very hard all his life. When he was a soldier, he read books whenever he was free, and sometimes stayed up all night. Reading at night, in order not to affect others' sleep, I found a big wooden box, cut it open, put my head in, and read by dim light.
When Feng Yuxiang was a brigade commander, he was stationed in Changde, Hunan Province and was required to read English for 2 hours every morning. When reading, close the door and put a sign outside the door that says "Feng Yuxiang is dead" and refuse outsiders to enter. After learning, the signboard on the door was changed to "Feng Yuxiang is still alive".
Feng Yuxiang hates people who are not punctual.
1927 Because Wang Jingwei didn't observe the meeting time, he was often absent and late for the meeting. Feng Yuxiang in a rage, made up a pair of couplets handed him:
A table full of snacks and half a table of fruits, how can we know the sufferings of the people?
Is it revolutionary spirit to have a meeting at two o'clock and arrive at four o'clock?
Feng Yuxiang has a military adviser named Usmanov. He especially likes to inquire about the situation of the nationalist army and often pesters Feng Yuxiang to ask questions. I began to ask some general information about the nationalist army, and gradually involved in administrative and personnel arrangements. On this day, Usmano asked Feng Yuxiang another thing. Feng Yuxiang said unhappily, "Mr. Consultant, do you know what the word' consultant' is in China?"
Usmanov shook his head: "I don't know."
Feng Yuxiang told him, "Look at the customers and ask questions. A consultant is when I look at you and have something to ask you, you answer. "
During the Anti-Japanese War, Feng Yuxiang lived in Geleshan, a suburb of Chongqing. Most local residents are the residences of senior military and political officials, and ordinary people dare not serve as Changbao, so Feng Yuxiang recommended himself as Changbao. His warm service was well received by the residents.
One day, a company soldier of a certain army was stationed in the local area, and the company commander came to Changbao for office affairs, borrowed a house, borrowed tables and chairs, and complained that he was not satisfied.
Feng Yuxiang is wearing a blue coarse trousers coat with a piece of white cloth wrapped around his head, which is the standard costume of Sichuan farmers. When he saw the company commander angry,
He bent down, bowed deeply and said, "My Lord, you have worked hard! There are many officials living in this place, so it is really difficult to run errands. If it is temporary, you will do it. "
Hearing this, the company commander was furious and said, "I want you to teach me a lesson!" You are a big shelf! "
Feng Yuxiang replied with a smile: "No, I used to be a soldier and never wanted to disturb the people."
The company commander asked, "What else have you done?"
"The platoon leader and company commander have also done it, and the battalion commander and head have also done it."
The company commander stood up and said politely, "What else did you do?"
Feng was in no hurry, but he still smiled and said, "Teachers and commanders have also worked, and they have also been commanders for a few days."
The company commander looked at the big guy carefully and suddenly woke up from a dream with his feet together: "Are you Vice Chairman Feng? The subordinates deserve to die, please punish the vice chairman! "
Feng Yuxiang bowed again: "Please sit down, my Lord! I am Deputy chairman of the Central Military Commission, and I am the dean here, so I should wait on adults. " A few words made the company commander feel embarrassed and quickly quit.
4. Lu Xun
The "Southern China" Literature Society founded by some progressive young people in Guangzhou hopes that Lu Xun (1881-1936) will give it to them.
Writing for the first issue. Lu Xun said: "You write the article first, and I will write it later, lest people say that Lu Xun has come to Guangzhou and want young people to join us."
The young man said, "We are all poor students. If the first issue does not sell well, we may not have the strength to publish the second issue. "
Lu Xun said humorously and seriously, "Publications sell easily. You can write articles and scold me, and my publications sell well. "
In 1930s, some writers had serious subjectivism problems. On one occasion, Lu Xun was asked to talk about this problem. Lu Xun just smiled at first. After a while, he told two stories:
Gold pole
There is a farmer who carries water every day. One day, he suddenly remembered, what did the emperor use to carry water to eat? I went back again.
A: You must use a gold pole.
Eat persimmon
One morning, a peasant woman woke up and felt very hungry. She thought, how should the queen enjoy her happiness? I must have woken up and called out, "Sister, bring a persimmon to eat."
1934, lyna, mayor of Beiping, Kuomintang, banned male and female students from swimming together.
Hearing this, Mr. Lu Xun said to several young friends, "Men and women are not allowed to travel together. If men and women breathe air together, it will confuse Gan Kun. Is it not more serious than swimming together? " Mayor lyna might as well simply give an order that men and women should wear gas masks when they go out. It doesn't circulate air and won't appear. In this way; Everyone is here! Hey! "Say that finish, Mr. Lu Xun leaned back slightly and simulated the gas mask with his hand.
Guan Zi, everyone was laughed at by Mr. Lu Xun's words and deeds.
1934 Human magazine opened a column of "Interview with Writers" to cooperate with the publication of portraits of interviewed writers. The editor of the magazine wrote to Lu Xun, asking for permission to interview, and took a photo with the study as the background, and then took a photo of Lu Xun with Xu Guangping and Zhou Haiying. Lu Xun wrote a humorous letter to refuse:
"The writer's name is very nice, and he doesn't respect himself. He thought it might as well make an example of it. I woke up quietly recently and was ashamed to say it. There is no thought in the brain, and there is no study in the apartment. A lady's son has nothing to do with the literary world and dares not accept three elegant lives. If Mr. Wang writes a short biography for a pseudo-writer another day, he will list books and sweep the floor to welcome him. "
5. Old house
During the Anti-Japanese War, Youth World published by Beixin Bookstore urged the writer Lao She (1899- 1966). At the same time of sending the manuscript, Lao She humorously sent a letter with a dramatic flavor:
The marshal sent an urgent order: there is no food outside, no soldiers! Teenagers ride horses with guns and go for a ride in the youth world. Hey! Malays! See marshal. How many people did you bring? Two thousand words! Or old, weak and beaten soldiers! Rest after the account! Order! Be quiet!
Exactly: clear-cut, murderous!
At the age of 40, Lao She wrote a simple, self-deprecating and interesting autobiography. The full text is as follows:
Shu Sheyu, also known as Lao She, is forty years old and his face is yellow. Born in Beiping. Losing his father at the age of three can be described as fatherless; In the school year, the emperor did not exist, so there was no monarch. No father, no gentleman, especially filial to my mother, bourgeois's benevolence has not been swept away. Young people read 300 articles and don't want to know much. Following the normal school, I have laid the foundation for teachers, and I am physically strong, living in all directions and teaching as my career. It's hard to get rich. Every time I buy lottery tickets, I am proud of winning the last prize, but I am also willing to look on coldly and humble. At the age of 27, he got angry and wrote a book, but he knew nothing about philosophy of science, so he wrote a novel.
Let everyone laugh, it's no big deal. Married at the age of 34, there is a man and a woman, all of whom are very clever and gratifying. I like to grow flowers in my spare time, but there is nothing I can do about it. Whenever there are leaves and no flowers, I am reluctant to give up. Don't rush to read everything, you will get nothing. Teaching and doing things are very serious, and I often have no regrets when I suffer losses. That's all. If you live another 40 years, you may gain something.
Once many young people came to Lao She's house and asked how to write poems. Lao she said:
"I can't write poetry, I'm just making it up."
Someone suggested that Lao She sing a song "impromptu" on the spot.
It rained heavily in Xian Xinghai, and Changhong came to the sky;
Into a snake's nest, the ice is shining, and the green field sleeps in the wind.
Lao She casually sang this unique five-character quatrain. In just 20 words, the names of eight writers and artists who are familiar and full of praise are "scrawled together", with vivid images, broad artistic conception and endless aftertaste. After listening to this, the young people were all surprised.
The heavy rain mentioned in the poem is Sun Dayu, a modern poet and literary translator. Xian Xinghai is Xian Xinghai, a people's musician. Gao Changhong is a modern celebrity. Wan Laitian is a drama and film worker. Bing Ying, a modern female writer, is from Hunan. Cheng she I used to be the editor-in-chief of Chongqing New Shu Newspaper. Bi Ye is a contemporary writer. Lin Fengmian is a painter.
Writer Lou Shiyi (born in 1905) has been to Lao She. "What have you written recently?" Lou Shi asked.
Lao She, who was born in Manchu, said with a smile: "I am a slave, wiping the manuscript for our emperor!" "
In a burst of laughter, I realized that Lao She was accepting a new task-revising his autobiography "My First Half Life" for the last emperor of China, Puyi.
