Classic
"White Deer Plain" became a classic because it was authentic, dared to uncover the dark side of life, and dared to dig out the twisted points of human nature. In this book, no one's heart is truly unified, most people are wandering on the edge of light and darkness, even just people will have a selfish side. And those who are villains again may also have a good side, and there is no way to characterize them. Just like Bai Jiaxuan in the book, he is honest and kind, pursuing fairness and justice all his life and sticking to morality all his life.
However, he could not get rid of the shackles of traditional feudalism, so that he was too autocratic and harmed his two children. Or Tian Xiaoe in the book. She is unfaithful, rebellious and unruly, but she is one of the few women in Bailuyuan who know how to pursue her own love and dare to break through the tradition. Under the wheel of life, no one is a good person and no one is a bad person. Lu San, a White House laborer, is Bai Jiaxuan's partner since childhood. He is loyal, regards the White House as his job, and works diligently without saying a word of complaint.
Character combination
The warm and vivid combination of characters, intertwined, represents the real world in which each of us lives. Mr. Chen writes such characters with pen and ink, hoping that we can jump out of the present life, look at the story of Bailuyuan from the perspective of God, and then explore the philosophy of real life from it. Chaos is the normal state of life that every book can describe. Drawing inspiration from life and guiding people to become better selves is the far-reaching significance of a great novel.
In addition to the classic characters, Chen hides his concise philosophy of life in these sentences, which middle-aged people must read and benefit for life. Bai Jiaxuan didn't know many people in his life, but almost all the people he knew became his nobles. His brother-in-law, Mr. Zhu, is his relative and became his bosom friend when he was not really mature. He told Bai Jiaxuan that Bailu was psychic, which gave Bai Jiaxuan the courage to change his destiny.
Baijiaxuan
He has vision and culture, reminding Bai Jiaxuan to run a school and attaching importance to the education of his children, so that Bai Jiaxuan's family style can be passed on. He is concerned about the country and the people, and has a far-sighted vision. His thoughts broadened Bai Jiaxuan's horizons and finally influenced Bai Jiaxuan's life. It can be said that Mr. Zhu is Bai Jiaxuan's life mentor. Because of his encouragement and guidance, Bai Jiaxuan can stick to his own path and realize his life ideal. After Bai Jiaxuan became the patriarch, he tried to support all Bai Jiaxuan's decisions and safeguard his dignity.
Knowing that Tian Xiaoe brought back by his son Heiwa embarrassed Bai Jiaxuan, and even tempted Bai Xiaowen to fall, he did not hesitate to personally kill Tian Xiaoe and safeguarded Bai Jiaxuan's dignity. The relationship between the two of them has already surpassed the general relationship between master and servant. Lu San is good to himself, and Bai Jiaxuan always sees it in his eyes. When there was a famine in the village, Lu San offered to go back to his house for dinner in order not to drag Bai Jiaxuan down. But Bai Jiaxuan disagreed. Even if the crops failed, there would be no shortage of deer and meals.
