"Two Family Letters from Fu Lei" are two family letters written by the author Fu Lei to his son Fu Cong. These two family letters express the father's touching love for his son from two aspects. Below is the original text of "Two Letters from Fu Lei's Family" in the ninth grade volume of the People's Education Press edition that I shared. Let's take a look at it.
Cong, dear child:
I am very happy to receive the sixth letter sent late on September 22. We are not worried or worried about your previous letter. disturbed. I also warned you in my eighth letter that this kind of depression will happen again in the future. I've been through this before, so I won't make a fuss. You don’t have to worry about it, let alone keep it in your belly and not tell us. If you don't vent your frustrations in letters home, where can you vent them? If a child doesn't complain to his parents, he has no one to complain to. If we don’t come to comfort you, who should comfort you? People spend their whole lives floating between highs and lows. Only mediocre people can live like stagnant water; or they must have extremely high cultivation to be able to survive. No fatigue, true relief. As long as the highs don't make you nervous and the lows don't make you decadent, that's fine. If the sun is too strong, it will scorch the grains; if the rain is too strong, it will drown the crops. We just want to be relatively mentally balanced and not be harmed. You are not someone who can't get up after a somersault. I predict that these few years abroad will be of great help to your entire life. I understand the pain expressed in this letter; I sympathize with it and am willing to try my best to comfort and encourage you. Didn't Christophe go through this situation many times? Wasn't he the epitome and crystallization of all artists? Slowly you will develop another mood to deal with the past: that is, you can think about it without being thrilling, and you can be objective Analyze the causes and consequences of reality and use it as a reference for the future to avoid repeating the same mistakes. Only when a person dares to face reality and mistakes, analyze rationally, and fully understand, can he not be eroded by memories. I believe you will gradually learn this and become stronger and stronger. What I mentioned to you about my feelings in my letter before is that I want you to look at these things as the ashes of your soul. Of course, you will be filled with emotions when you look at them, but you should not hurt yourself unforgettably, but rather treat them as if you were facing an ancient battlefield. The feeling of condolences. If you think these words are right and have some inspiration for you, then in the future when you encounter pain caused by memories (which will inevitably happen again), take out this letter and reread it several times.

I hope I will receive your letter early in the new year. We are all waiting for something: a gift. Sure enough, I received your letter yesterday morning, and it was quite a piece of gratifying news. Child! If we were at the venue. I'm sure I can't help but burst into tears. The highest and purest joy in the world. There is nothing better than appreciating art, and nothing better than appreciating the art conveyed by the hands and hearts of your children. Secondly. We are also happy because you have brought glory to our motherland! We are also happy because you can make so many people laugh through music! I think you will have greater achievements and endless progress in the future. Serve more people and a wider public. Boost their mood. Soothe their pain. Our hearts are really going to jump out! We can carry forward the immortal works of the immortal master. Spreading to every corner of the earth is such a sacred and glorious mission! My child, you are so happy. God has been so kind to you. What I am even more happy and comforted about is: no amount of excessive flattery and praise has made you lose your self-knowledge, and the applause and hugs from everyone have not made you lose your self-knowledge. Praise from celebrities. None of it diminishes your humility towards art. At last my education was not in vain. Your twenty years of torture have not been in vain! You can be strong (not getting carried away by victory is the best evidence of being strong). As long as you can be strong, I will rest assured for the rest of my life! The success is not within our control, whether it is small or high. Half of it depends on manpower and half of it depends on talent. But as long as you are strong, you are not afraid of failure, setbacks, or setbacks. A blow, whether it's in personnel, life, or technology - a blow; from now on, you can fight alone. What's more, there are actually so many good teachers and friends around to help you and support you. In addition, ancient and modern classics will give you spiritual nourishment at all times! My child, from now on, you will never be alone, and you will not be afraid of being alone!
This sentence from the heart of a child I have always remembered the words. A child does not know loneliness. When an innocent child is lonely, he will create a world and create many spiritual friends! Always keep the innocent heart, and he will not be left behind when he grows old. He will always be able to connect with and embrace the innocent hearts in the world! Your friend said it right Yes, the moving performance of art must come from the purity of the soul! If it is not as pure as a mirror, how can we understand the souls of our predecessors? How can we move the hearts of the audience?
The music dean said Your playing is like flowing water, like a river; it reminds me of the symbol of Christophe. Uncle Tian said that you often thought of yourself as Christophe when you were a child; but your personality is actually somewhat similar to Romain Rolland's ideal.
River, Rhine, the sound of the river is mighty... The bells are ringing again, it is already dawn... China is reaching the dawn of Fudan. I hope you will be China's - New China's - bells, ringing all over the world, every day. Personal heart! The inexhaustible flow of water flows into everyone's heart, taking everyone with you into the boundless ocean of sound! The world-famous Yangtze River and Yellow River are more famous than the Rhine The momentum is even greater!...The water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, and rushes to the sea and never returns!...The endless falling trees rustle under it, and the endless Yangtze River rolls in!...A traditional nation with this kind of poet soul should have the spirit. That's the right way to behave.
You say that you are always surrounded by contradictions and happiness, but I believe that without contradictions, artists will not progress, evolve, or deepen. Contradictions are evidence of vitality. What you feel at the moment is just the contradiction between skills and ideals. In the future, you will have recurring and even greater contradictions: the contradiction between form and content, and many unpredictable contradictions in your own heart, all waiting for you in the future.
Don’t worry, resolving a contradiction is a step forward! Conflicts can never be solved, so art has no limits. There is no perfect day, and there is no perfect day in life! Only for this reason, we need to work day and night, Lifelong pursuit and hard training; otherwise, everyone would become Emperor Xi and rule the world with ease, which would be too boring to be a human being!
