The Composition of Character Description in Yao Lu Xun

1. Description of Xia in Lu Xun's Medicine Yu Xia is the hero in Lu Xun's famous novel Medicine. He is a bourgeois democratic revolutionary. His family was so poor that the greedy jailer "couldn't squeeze any oil from him"; He has a clear understanding of the bourgeois democratic revolution, and overthrowing the rule of the Qing Dynasty and establishing a world of "all of us" is his struggle program. He was determined, insisted on propagating revolutionary truth in prison, and even persuaded prison leaders to rebel; In the struggle against the enemy, "desperate", not afraid to fight, fearless and unwavering. Finally, he died generously by the enemy's butcher's knife, showing the heroic spirit of the revolutionaries.

Yu Xia's revolutionary struggle, under the historical conditions at that time, represented the interests of the broad masses of the people, so Mr. Lu Xun warmly praised his spirit of dedication to the revolution, but at the same time described the tragedy of his struggle. His revolutionary thoughts were not understood by the masses, his revolutionary actions were not supported by the masses, and even his sacrifice did not win their sympathy. People are "angry" about his revolutionary truth; He was beaten by the warden, and people gloated; He called his aunt "pathetic" and others said he was "crazy". He was killed by the feudal dynasty, and ordinary people went to watch the fun; Even his mother was not proud of his heroic dedication, but felt "ashamed". What is more sad is that the blood he sprayed for the revolution actually became the "medicine" for Hua Laoshuan to treat his son. In a word, Yu Xia's death did not cause any repercussions in the society, but brought sadness and shame to his mother, a dose of fake medicine to the ignorant masses, a "feat of killing" to the robust spectators, an extra talk for boring tea drinkers and a chance for greedy executioners to cheat. Therefore, Yu Xia's death is lonely and sad.

However, Yu Xia's sacrifice was not without impact. The wreath that Tomb-Sweeping Day appeared in the grave the next year was a consolation to this "lonely and fierce land", indicating that revolutionaries still miss him, and the flame of the revolution did not-will not go out. It gives hope in the dark.

Yu Xia never appeared in the novel. Through the dialogue between the executioner and the tea drinker, the author depicts his image with profile description.

2. Analysis of Characters in Lu Xun's Medicine According to the author's different feelings and attitudes towards characters, the characters in this novel are classified.

Ignorant and numb people: Huajia couple, spectators, tea drinkers (people in their twenties, with gray beard and hunchback five young master), grandma Si Xia. Ugly minions and accomplices: revolutionaries such as Uncle Kang, Grandpa Xia San and red-eyed aunt Yu Xia.

1. (1) As can be seen from the following details, Hua Laoshuan is a poor laborer.

The extra money in his family was hard-won, and it was accumulated through hard work. In order to treat his son, he had to take it out from under the pillow.

But taking money seriously, I am afraid of losing it. A. Aunt Hua dug out from under the pillow for a long time and took out a bag of foreign currency for Lao Shuan.

B. Connect the old bolt, put it in your pocket and press it twice outside. C. press the button, the hard one is still there.

D. Lao Shuan hurriedly touched out the foreign currency and handed it to him unsteadily. (2) As an ordinary worker, Hua Laoshuan has the most essential side in his character-diligence and kindness.

He loves his son, and in order to treat his son, he does not hesitate to spend the money he has accumulated for a long time. When it was time to buy "medicine" for the execution ground, he was "taken aback" and did not dare to approach, so he retreated to the eaves of a shop to be "cool".

In his eyes, the idle people who beheaded looked like "ghosts". When the executioner handed him the good "medicine" he wanted to buy-human blood steamed bread, he was afraid to pick it up. All these show that his character is kind.

(3) In the second part, it is written that Hua Laoshuan came home, and his woman "came out of the kitchen with her eyes open and her lips trembling." Q: "Did you get it?" When it was time to fry human blood steamed bread, the mother who wrote Xiao Shuan hurriedly said, "Xiao Shuan-sit down and don't come over."

The description of Aunt Hua's manner and language is to show that the mother is eager to love her son, but she is afraid that she can't buy the "medicine" that is considered as "wrapped" to treat tuberculosis. Because whether you can buy it is directly related to your son's life and death.

When I knew that this "medicine" had been taken, I was afraid that my son would not let him eat the bloody steamed bread until he fried it. (4) Question: The author mainly highlights the other side of Hua Laoshuan's personality-very ignorant and numb.

He is convinced of the executioner's deceptive words and feels "refreshed" and "happy" for the opportunity to buy this medicine; After buying the medicine, he was very excited, carefully frying the medicine and watching his son take it hopefully. All he cares about is the consumption of his son. He doesn't know anything about revolution at all. He is indifferent to the death of revolutionaries and respectful to executioners.

All these show that he is ignorant and insensitive. (5) Wen Zhonghua is eager to love his son, but he seems ignorant of psychological descriptive sentences.

A. the weather is much colder than in the house; Old An Shu felt refreshed, as if once he became a teenager, he had magical power and the ability to give life to others, and his stride was exceptionally high. And the road is getting clearer and the sky is getting brighter and brighter.

B. His spirit is only in a bag now, as if holding a baby that has been handed down for ten generations, and everything else is ignored. Now he is going to transplant the new life in this bag to his home and gain a lot of happiness.

C. Next to him, his father stood and his mother stood. Both of them looked as if they were going to put something in him and take something out. (6) Since Hua Laoshuan is the representative of the unconscious working people, can he reflect the mental outlook of the masses at that time only by writing about his ignorance and numbness and not others? Although Hua Laoshuan is an important figure in the novel, his tragic ignorance is typical.

However, the ignorance and numbness of the masses are deeply rooted and have become a serious social problem. It's not enough to just write Hua Lao Shuan. It is also necessary to write characters such as aunt Hua, spectators, tea drinkers and grandmothers, that is, all ages should write; There are both those who work hard all day and those who do nothing, thus revealing the theme of this article profoundly and widely. (7) Clarity: Yu Xia preached the revolutionary truth, and "people in their twenties" were "angry" when they heard it; Yu Xia was beaten by the old man, and the hunchback five young master and the gray beard felt "happy"; Yu Xia called his aunt "pathetic", but the tea drinker called him "crazy". Yu Xia was killed and people went to watch the fun. Even the martyr's mother didn't understand why her son died.

She feels "shame" instead of glory, and so on. (8) Summary: Lu Xun wrote characters such as Hua Laoshuan, which is "mourning their misfortune and angering them", sympathizing with their situation and tragic experience and criticizing their ignorance and backwardness.

Their ignorance is caused by the long-term ignorant policies of the feudal ruling class. Therefore, the author exposed their "sufferings" and strongly accused the feudal ruling class of fooling the people. 2. The image of Uncle Kang.

He first appeared in the execution ground. After Yu Xia was killed, he suddenly appeared in front of Lao Shuan. The second appearance was in the teahouse.

He barged in while the tea drinker was talking. In this paper, he was called "black" and "juror" one after another. I didn't know he was Uncle Kang until I talked to Aunt Hua.

The reason why the author calls him that is not only to highlight the appearance characteristics of the characters, but also to reflect his hatred. The article does not say that he is the executioner, but we can see it from the text notes and the specific description of the novel.

The commentary pointed out that in the old society, people believed that human blood could cure tuberculosis. When the prisoner was executed, someone bought steamed bread dipped in human blood from the executioner to treat the disease. The execution ground writes about money and blood transactions, and it can be inferred that this person is the executioner.

In addition, as can be seen from the description. He is greedy, insidious, vicious and despicable, and he is a pawn and accomplice of feudal rulers.

Killing revolutionaries for his son, publicly declaring the revolution guilty, reporting meritorious deeds, and beating revolutionaries is justified; Deceive the masses and sell revolutionary blood as "medicine" at a high price; It is argued that human blood steamed bread is a good medicine for treating diseases. Uncle Kang was also a pawn of the feudal ruling class, so he did many evil deeds. Imagine how cruel and cunning his master would be! The image of Uncle Kang is not only vivid, but also full of the author's biting satire, which makes people unforgettable after reading it.

Portrait description, action description and language description are mainly used. Portrait description is wonderful because it can grasp the most distinctive manner, appearance and clothing, and outline the character characteristics with a few strokes.

For example, if you write "men in black", "eyes are like two knives, and the old bolt is halved", its fierce image is vividly on the paper. Another example is to write "full face".

3. Excerpts from the description of Lu Xun's Medicine and Happiness, and Mo Bosang, the author of boule de suif.

Protagonist: Her face is like a red apple, a peony that is about to bloom. In the upper part of her face, a pair of lively black eyes are open, and the thick eyelashes around her reflect a circle of shadows; In the second half, a charming little mouth, narrow and moist, makes people want to kiss, and there is a row of shiny and very slender teeth inside.

Sister Xianglin: "She has a white rope tied to her head, a black skirt, a blue coat and a moonlight vest. She is about twenty-six, and her face is blue and yellow, but her cheeks are still red. "

Romance of the Three Kingdoms Luo Guanzhong

Liu Bei: That man is not good at reading; Broad-minded, taciturn, unknown; Known as ambitious, specializing in making friends with heroes all over the world; Born seven feet and five inches long, with two earlobes and two shoulders, hands over the knees, eyes that can shine on the ears, face like a crown jade, and fat on the lips; After Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, Han Jing is your great-grandson, surnamed Liu Mingbei and named Xuande.

"Storm" Zhao is the owner of Maoyuan Hotel in the neighboring village and the only outstanding figure and scholar within 30 miles. Because of his knowledge, he smells like an old man. He has more than 30 copies of the History of the Three Kingdoms refuted by Jin Shengtan, and often sits and reads word for word. He can not only name the Iliad, but also know the names of Huang Zhong and Ma Chao. After the revolution, he put his braid on top, like a Taoist, and often lamented that if Zhao Zilong were still alive, the world would not be so chaotic. Sister-in-law has a good eye. I see that the Seventh Master is no longer a Taoist today, but a man with smooth scalp and black hair. It is easy to know that the emperor must be sitting in the massage parlor, and he must have braids. Seven catties must be very dangerous. (detailed description)

"Storm" The old man sat on a low stool and shook a big banana fan to chat. The children ran like flying, or sat under butter and gambled on stones. The woman served steamed dried vegetables and yellow rice, which was hot and bitter. (Description of expression and action)

"The True Story of Ah Q" Ah Q knelt on the wall and became speechless, so he stood up slowly with his hands on the empty bench, as if feeling a little bad. He was really a little uneasy at this moment, so he tied his pipe to his belt in a panic and wanted to fry rice. With a bang, there was a thick bag on his head. He quickly turned around and the scholar stood in front of him with a big bamboo pole. (emoticon)

Ah Q wants to draw a circle, but his hand holding the pen is just shaking. So the man spread the paper on the ground for him, and Ah Q fell down and drew a circle with all his strength. Afraid of being laughed at, he decided to draw a circle, but the hateful pen was not only heavy but also disobedient. It almost closed when it was just shaken, but it shrugged its shoulders and turned into a melon seed. (action)

4. Lu Xun's portrait composition 1. Kong Yiji was the only one standing drinking and wearing a gown. He is very tall; Blue and white face, often with some scars between wrinkles; A shaggy gray beard. Although I am wearing a robe, it is dirty and torn. It seems that it hasn't been mended or washed for more than ten years. He is always full of big talk when talking to people, which makes people half understand. Because his surname is Kong, others gave him a nickname, Kong Yiji, which comes from the semi-understood word "Shang Da Ren Kong Yiji" on red paper. As soon as Kong Yiji arrived at the store, all the drinkers looked at him and smiled. Some shouted: "Kong Yiji, you have added a new scar on your face!" He didn't answer. He said to the cupboard, "Heat two bowls of wine and ask for a plate of fennel beans." I will pay a lot of money. They shouted loudly again: "You must have stolen from others again!" Kong Yiji opened his eyes and said, "How can you make people innocent out of thin air ..." "What innocence? I saw with my own eyes what book you stole and hung it up the day before yesterday. " Kong Yiji blushed and the veins stood out on his forehead, arguing that "stealing books is not stealing ... stealing books! ..... how can you steal the matter of a scholar? " The incomprehensible words such as "the gentleman is poor" and "the villain is poor" caused everyone to laugh: the air inside and outside the store was filled with joy. -from Lu Xun's Kong Yiji.

Second, third aunt 19 14 came to Beijing and worked in a girls' normal school. When I was five years old (19 16), I was in the first grade in a primary school attached to a women's normal university and began to remember my third aunt. At that time, she was the "supervisor" of Women's Normal University, and I was her favorite child. I remember once our primary school classmate was having dinner in the dining hall, and she took some guests into the dining hall to visit. Suddenly, the whole dining hall was awed and everyone was absorbed in eating. I sat with my back to the door, and many rice grains fell in front of my rice bowl. Third aunt passed by and said something in my ear. I quickly put the rice in my mouth and ate it. Later, I heard my third aunt and my father describe the little girls in our family. They all look like me in the back, with a white neck and two short pigtails. When they saw me picking up rice grains to eat, they all picked up the rice grains that fell off the table one by one. She laughed when she spoke, as if she liked us pupils very much. At that time, my third aunt was not biased at all.

-From Mr. Jiang Yang's memory of my aunt.

5. On the composition of Lu Xun's "Medicine", talk about the ghostly creation of Lu Xun's "Medicine".

The story of "medicine" begins in the second half of autumn: there is blue sky outside the house, and there is no sunshine. Some nocturnal things are wandering around. At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly got up and struck a match. His face flickered in the light of matches, which was terrible. Just then, an old woman's voice came from the back room. This is not a girl's gentle voice, nor a young man's voice, but a strange thing. The man walked into a dark room, where there was a rustling sound and people coughing.

This is the beginning of the story, which brings people into a dark, strange and horrible atmosphere.

Then read on, and the environmental description of the article is interspersed with strange colors.

Old Shuan was surprised several times on his way to the execution ground. If the atmosphere is normal and peaceful, people will not always be surprised and have a peaceful mind. He saw someone passing in front, looked back at his eyes, as if he saw food, and his eyes shone with robbing light. Readers can't help thinking, this is not a person, but a beast. Don't! Beasts have no human bodies, but they are obviously ghosts. Then Lu Xun wrote that Lao Shuan saw many strange people wandering like ghosts. Old Shuan walked on and saw the soldiers. Their clothes had big white circles and dark red edges. This may take care of the bloody steamed bread below! Anyway, it reminds me of the wreath used by the deceased. Old Shuan saw the backs of a group of people, like being pinched by invisible hands, like ducks. The picture is frozen at this time, and readers can't help but feel that the article is even weirder.

Finally, it's time for readers to understand the intention of Lao Shuan.

How did Lu Xun write it? He wrote the executioner first. One is a black man with eyes like two knives and a bright red steamed bun in his hand. He doesn't look human. He's just a hellboy. Black, white and red give readers a strong visual impact, especially the bloody bright red steamed bread, plus men in black, dark days and ghostly pedestrians, which has to make people shudder.

Old An Shu finally got home. It seems that the reader's heart should be put down. But then. The description of burning steamed bread and eating steamed bread is another shock.

Green lotus leaves are wrapped in bright red human blood steamed bread. How to think, how to make people dare not compliment. It is usually said that red flowers and green leaves are beautiful, but the bright red and green collocation in Lu Xun's works is really shocking. The burning flame of steamed bread is red and black. Red and black are so penetrating at this time, which reminds me of the story of "the old demon with black wind drinks human blood".

After a while, the steamed bread was ready. Give off a strange smell. The smell is understandable, revolutionary blood! But the strange smell makes people feel strange. The red and white steamed bread turned black, and a white smell appeared in the heart that opened it. If this is a fairy tale, I will definitely think that a monster may come out of the white air to do evil; Otherwise, God will grant other people's wishes. Anyway, the air emitted by steamed bread here always makes me feel strange. I like Xiao Shuan, and I have an indescribable strangeness.

Superstition harms people, and God will not pity Xiao Shuan. Soaking steamed bread in revolutionary blood can't cure tuberculosis. The ending is sad.

At the end of the story, Lu Xun arranged for Xiao Shuan's mother and the revolutionary's mother to appear together. What a dramatic scene! Lu Xun's description of dead bodies is scary: steamed bread for the rich man's birthday. Steamed bread again. The body looks like steamed bread. The reader is probably thinking, I hope I don't think of this metaphor when I eat steamed bread.

The revolutionary's grave was covered with a circle of red and white flowers. Aunt Hua and Mrs. Xia were taken aback. Perhaps this is Lu Xun's special concern for this soldier who once ran in loneliness. The sentence "This flower doesn't look like it opened by itself" creates a supernatural atmosphere. There was silence around the cemetery, grass like copper wire, and disgusting crows. This scene is like the description of the cemetery at the end of Father and Son. But Turgenev said: "No matter how guilty the people buried in the grave are, the flowers growing on the grave look at us safely with their innocent eyes." Simple words make readers feel moved and warm. But I didn't feel this way at the end of my medical studies. Lu Xun made the two mothers turn their heads in horror and watched the crow fly away like an arrow. The picture was always fixed at this moment. Two tight cheeks, four frightened eyes and a slightly open mouth.

Lu Xun's pen stopped in this horrible atmosphere. The background color of the article "Medicine" is gloomy and strange. Moreover, the article always presents a horrible scene unexpectedly. For example, the black dress person suddenly appeared in front of the old bolt and suddenly took out the bloody steamed bread. One of the reasons why Japanese horror movies are scary is that they are unexpected: the cool summer breeze blows the little ones to sleep peacefully. Suddenly, a ghost appeared outside the window ... I think any director who wants to make another horror film can watch Medicine, and I believe he will find inspiration from it.

I think the reason why Medical set the background color of the article as "ghost film" style is because the story itself is very sad. Warriors running in loneliness are really lonely and sad. His death did not awaken the people, but was despised. This ancient folk superstition is really stupid and weird. Can human blood cure tuberculosis? Sadly, people who believe in it are more ignorant. The backwardness of culture makes Lu Xun's criticism of China culture so powerful and profound, pointing directly at the darkness in human nature.

6. How are the characters described in the textbook of Medicine? By describing the actions of the characters and the contradictions and conflicts between them, Medicine profoundly shows the loneliness and sorrow of the bourgeois old democratic revolutionaries who are not understood by the people, and profoundly reveals the historical tragedy that the Revolution of 1911 was divorced from the people.

Lu Xun organized the characters in his works into a story composed of two tragic clues: the tragedy that revolutionary Yu Xia gave his life to cure social "diseases" but was not understood by the people; Stupid and numb old Shuan, let his son Xiao Shuan eat the blood of revolutionary martyrs to cure the stupid tragedy of physical illness. These two tragic story clues linked by human blood steamed bread constitute the plot basis of character conflict and story development.

Yu Xia, a revolutionary, is a figure who does not appear in his works. The author intentionally alludes to the martyr Qiu Jin, a female revolutionary who died in Shaoxing. That's understandable. Although Lu Xun was disappointed and depressed by the Revolution of 1911, the Second Revolution, Yuan Shikai's proclaimed himself emperor and zhang xun restoration, he will never forget those revolutionary martyrs who died heroically. He admires them, misses them and often describes them in his works. However, Yu Xia is not only alluding to Qiu Jin, but also generalizing more broadly ── he is the revolutionary image of that era.

The third part describes the image of Yu Xia. In the second section, readers only know that Xiao Shuan, the son of Hua Laoshuan and Aunt Hua, suffered from consumption, and Hua Laoshuan and Aunt Hua cooked steamed bread with human blood to treat him. In the first section, readers also know that Hua Lao tied up early and trembled, and used all his savings to buy it from the executioner on the altar. However, whose blood is this man's blood steamed bread? Readers don't understand. In the third section, the author explained to the readers through the mouth of the executioner, Uncle Kang: the man who was killed was grandma's son, "there was only one old lady in his family", "I didn't expect that he was too poor to make money", and he was killed because he wanted to overthrow the Qing Dynasty. He is strong and full of confidence in the revolution. "After being put in prison, he had to persuade the jailer to rebel." He preached to the jailer's red-eyed Ayi that "this big Qing world belongs to all of us." Lu Xun praised the revolutionary spirit of revolutionary Yu Xia in these pen and ink; However, the profound significance of the work lies not in praising the revolutionaries, but in writing the tragic contradiction between the revolutionary Yu Xia's offering his own blood to cure the social "disease" and the ignorant old Shuan's hope to cure his son Xiao Shuan's physical illness by sucking the revolutionary's blood, thus profoundly revealing a historical lesson.

Let's look at the first section of the work. "In the second half of autumn, the moon set before the sun came out." "Hua Laoshuan suddenly sat up, lit a match and a greasy lamp. The two rooms in the teahouse were filled with blue and white light." "Aunt Hua touched it under the pillow for a long time and took out a bag of foreign money and gave it to Lao Shuan. Old Shuan took it, put it trembling in her pocket and pressed it twice outside. "The author a few strokes, the image of the devastated poor Chinese aunt came to life. They live a poor life, hardworking, kind, timid and ignorant. Kind old Shuan got up early to buy human blood steamed bread, afraid to go near the giving ceremony. When Uncle Kang, the executioner, stood in front of the old Shuan with his eyes like a knife, "a big hand spread out to him; When holding a bright red steamed bun in one hand, "Lao Shuan hurriedly took out foreign money, trembling to give it to him, but afraid to pick up his things"; I am as timid as a mouse. In front of Uncle Kang, the executioner, "Old Shuan holds the teapot in one hand and hangs it respectfully in the other"; Stupid enough to believe that human blood steamed bread can cure his son Xiao Shuan's illness. Lu Xun wrote the scene where Xiao Shuan ate human blood steamed bread, and the brushwork was deeper: "His father and mother stood next to him, and both of them looked as if they were going to stuff something into him and take something out. "Hua Laoshuan and Hua Aunt's pious attitude, their kindness and timidity make people sympathize, and their ignorance and numbness make people feel sad.

Teahouses are the gathering place of "three religions and nine streams" in the old society. Lu Xun chose the teahouse as the main scene of the characters' activities in the novel because it is convenient to gather the numb people in the society, such as the crazy "twenties", the "gray beard" who kowtowed to the executioner Kang, and the "hunchback five young master" who was happy to be beaten. "Madman" is the name used by rulers to suppress revolutionaries. Not only "people in their twenties", "people with gray beards" and "hunchback five young masters" echoed Uncle Kang, the executioner who insulted revolutionaries, but even his mother and grandmother did not understand his son's death-when Tomb-Sweeping Day visited his son's grave, she could not help but "show some shame on her pale face". This is a social tragedy. On the other hand, the revolutionary Yu Xia died, but the ignorant and numb masses did not understand the cause he fought for and the significance of his death. This is another tragedy of the revolution. Both of these tragedies are heartbreaking and provide valuable lessons to history: the revolution must educate and mobilize the masses, otherwise the revolutionaries can only die alone like Yu Xia, and the revolution can only be an incomplete and substantial failure like the Revolution of 1911.

With angry brushstrokes, Lu Xun described grandpa Xia San who reported the government's betrayal of his nephew, Ayi, a red-eyed prisoner, and Uncle Kang, the executioner with blood on his hands. They are the slaves of the rulers, and the world under feudal rule depends on them. From the words and deeds of these characters, readers can't help but realize that the murder of revolutionary Yu Xia, the death of Hua Xiaoshuan, the ignorance and numbness of Hua Laoshuan and Hua Aunt, and their miserable lives are all caused by feudal rulers and their minions.

7. Comment on the image of Hua Laoshuan in Lu Xun's Medicine: He is a hardworking, kind and ignorant working people. His life is very hard ("a patched quilt"), his status is low ("his eyes are surrounded by a circle of black lines" and he smiles at the guests), and he is as hardworking, kind and simple as all workers. But the author is not concerned about his economic situation, but his mental ignorance. Lao Shuan is eager to love his son, convinced that human blood steamed bread can cure his son's illness, and he can feel "refreshed" and "happy" after buying this medicine. In his mind, his son's life is important. As for the so-called "revolution", he doesn't care, he doesn't understand, and he doesn't know that the steamed bread with human blood eaten by his son is the blood of revolutionaries.

Kang Shu: As a tool for the ruling class to kill people, it is cruel, cruel and greedy. His language, clothes and actions are all described in the novel, especially the verbs such as shouting, grabbing, tearing, wrapping, choking, grabbing, carrying, pinching and humming, which vividly show his insolence. However, it needs to be emphasized that Uncle Kang is only a tool for the feudal ruling class to rule and suppress the masses, not the culprit.

A confused tea drinker

Those who drink tea, whether they are young people in their twenties or old people with gray beards, are idle, numb and empty ordinary citizens who drift with the flow. For feudal rulers, they were afraid, please and humble; They don't understand, sympathize with or even hate "rebellious" revolutionaries. They are unconscious defenders of feudal order and victims of feudal thought.

The fifth young master with white beard and hunchback among tea drinkers belongs to "idle people". They stayed in the teahouse all day, and the executioner talked about the murdered man, which happened to be their interesting "talk", so they had to "humbly" ask Uncle Kang about the situation. Their views on the revolution are completely consistent with the "orthodox" views of the feudal ruling class. There is also a "man in his twenties" among the tea drinkers. When listening to Uncle Kang talking about Yu Xia with other tea drinkers, he only said two words. There is a saying that when Yu Xia persuaded the old man to rebel, he exclaimed in surprise: "Ah, that's not bad." And "very angry." There is a saying that I heard that the jailer's aunt hit Yu Xia. Yu Xia said his aunt was pitiful, and Grey Beard said, "Crazy, really crazy." He also suddenly realized, "I'm crazy." This "man in his twenties" is also an "idle man", and his views are exactly the same as those of those five young gentlemen with white beard and hunchback. When Lu Xun wrote Medicine, he believed that "young people are better than old people", but this "man in his twenties", like a man with a gray beard, just shows that ignorance and numbness among the masses are still developing, and the influence of the bourgeois-led democratic revolution among the masses is so weak.

Grandma Si Xia is a poor woman. Before the Revolution of 1911, she lived in a small town in Jiangnan. She was born in poverty, old and weak. She loves her son who lives together and is sad to lose him. She was wronged and humiliated because her son was a rebel of the old system, but she was ignorant, superstitious and old-fashioned, and she was the lowest female in an awakened society.

This novel expresses Lu Xun's deep sorrow. Instead of being revered, revolutionaries were spurned, and even their biological mothers were humiliated. The revolutionary is so lonely that even his mother doesn't know him. However, Lu Xun's greatest sadness and deepest anxiety lies in his grandmother Si Xia's hatred of the revolution, which is the real core of the tragedy expressed in the novel. Because it is not enough to constitute a tragedy just because the revolutionary's mother does not understand the revolution. In real life, it is impossible for the mothers of most revolutionaries to be on the same ideological level as revolutionaries. Lu Rui didn't understand why Lu Xun was fighting, and Qiu Jin's mother and Qiu Jin became more estranged. This phenomenon is determined by many factors, which is inevitable and normal.
