I will briefly describe the story here, hoping that readers can read this book by themselves.
The protagonists of the story are three women and a male teacher. Fang Siqi and Liu Yiting have been good friends since childhood. They live on the same floor. They live alone and regard each other as their spiritual twins. Xu, the wife of Qian Yiwei in the same building, is often beaten by her drunken husband and even miscarried. Li Guohua, the Chinese teacher who lives upstairs.
Thinking that she met the right person, Xu Wenyi gave up her doctorate and accepted Qian Yiwei's proposal. Unexpectedly, one dimension is so violent. He goes out to drink every night until one or two in the morning. When he came back, he was defeated by literature and art. The next day, he patted his chest and promised not to do it again, but it was a reincarnation. Her life is just like the book says, "Being fucked in the afternoon and being beaten at night." But she still loves the sober one-dimensional, and endured it day after day until she divorced because of abortion. Under the concept of "no talent is virtue", the greatest happiness of Qian's life is to get along with Fang Si every day. Room, since Liu met, know the love of reading, every day after school, he came to Qian's house to read to them, watch movies and have dinner together.
The happy time was broken by the arrival of the Li Guohua family. Just moved here, Li Guohua went door to door to understand the existence of Fang Yiting. As an adult, literature and art directly saw through Li Guohua's hypocrisy, while Fang Liu's parents were attracted by his teacher status.
After several contacts, Li Guohua would sew up her mouth when she saw Siqi's self-esteem, and she wouldn't say anything because it was too dirty.
As a Chinese teacher, Li Guohua offered to make up Fang Liu's composition and asked them to write him a composition every week. And naive they also agreed. At first, four people discussed the composition together at Qian's house. After several times, Li Guohua said with a smile, all the discussions were small talk. Why don't they leave his house and want to have fun day by day? They also agreed that Evie could not rob another neighbor with her neighbor because of emotional problems.
Soon, one afternoon, Li Guohua forced thirteen-year-old Siqi to give him oral sex.
As Li Guohua expected, Qi Qi went to his house every other afternoon. This time, she lost her virginity.
Thirteen-year-old Siqi lost her way. Her idea is that not only he can poke my childhood, but I can also poke my own childhood. Not only he wants it, but I can also want it. If I throw myself away first, he can't throw it away again. I want to fall in love with my teacher. The person you love can do anything for you.
Young, she wants to live, and she can only rationalize the damage. But when she was awake, she was in pain. In the struggle, this relationship lasted for five years until she was driven crazy and sent to a mental hospital.
During the whole process, Fang Siqi's parents were absent. She could have asked her parents for help, but she was discouraged by two temptations.
Fang Siqi said to her mother for the first time: Our family seems to have everything but sex education. Mom looked at her strangely and replied, what sex education? Sex education is for those who need sex. Isn't that what education is all about?
The second time, Fang Siqi said to her mother in a naive tone: I heard that there is a classmate at school with the teacher. Mom asked: Who? She said: no, my mother said: so young, so coquettish.
These two temptations made Siqi decide not to talk anymore, and she never talked again.
Li Guohua is damn, of course, and Siqi is pathetic, of course. But just like Li Guohua in the novel, Chen Guowen in reality finally refused to sue because of insufficient evidence, while Lin died. And even if Siqi in the book didn't meet Li Guohua, I think she might become a person like Ivan and suffer the same misfortune silently.
Lin's suicide caused widespread concern at that time. I bought this book at that time, too, but I tried to read it twice and felt depressed and uncomfortable. I can't go on studying at the thought of this happening to the author. It was not until recently that I sorted out books that I found this little book with a pink cover. By this time, I had forgotten the news of that period and even the author's name. However, some hot spots have passed, which has nothing to do with who made the hair and who ate jiaozi, but there are some events to remember. Although we can't find out the truth of the matter and convict that beast, we can't change society and make fewer bad guys. But we can change ourselves. We all want to be parents and have children of our own in the future.
China's parents never talk about sex. They are absent from class collectively, but pretend that sex education does not exist.
I don't want to discuss whether Fang Siqi really loves Li Guohua or whether Lin committed suicide because she was raped or because she hated herself for falling in love with the rapist. I just want to remind you of your responsibility as a parent, not only to raise a child, but also to make him have a healthy spirit and psychology. It's not just to protect him from knowing about sex and love, but to let him judge correctly and protect himself.
A dialogue has been echoing in my mind.
"What would you do if this happened to your daughter?"
"I will do two things."
"What is it?"
"Kill Li Guohua."
"well. The other one is? "
"Suicide."
"Why?"
"I didn't protect her. I deserve to die. "
"Do you want God to continue to protect her?"
"Think about it. But I am likely to go to hell. "
This book is recommended for friends who are already parents and future parents. I hope that next time there is such news, you won't be surprised that there is such evil in this world.
Let more people know about this book, which is probably all we can do for Lin.
