Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 392
It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon when I got home, Zhou Zhi filled the big aluminum basin at home with water, and raised all the crucian carp.

The crucian carp that has just been caught cannot be put directly into the water tank, because the feces are not cleaned, and the mouth often spits out debris. You have to wait for [-] hours to let the digestion and metabolism of the crucian carp complete, and then move it to the water tank. There will be no dirty water.

Otherwise, the water in the tank will quickly become acidic, which will rot the fins and gills of the fish, resulting in dead fish.

The crucian carp that has been treated in this way can live freely for a long time even if it does not change the water.

Small miscellaneous fish such as white striped wheat ear boat dingzi in the small half-basket had already died hard, and the number of small fish was large, and there might not be one or two hundred of seven or eight catties of miscellaneous fish. Zhou Zhi couldn't help feeling scalp numb when he looked at it.

In addition, there are large crucian carp, carp, and large catfish that need to be killed for cooking.

Fortunately, there are helpers downstairs, and Zhou Zhi was half relieved when he heard Feng Xueshan's voice greeting Yang He and Fang Wenyu carelessly.

Taking the fish to be processed downstairs, Zhou Zhi greeted several beauties: "Xinyi, Panda, Shiqing, Yijie, Xueshan, Shuyi..."

"Elbow!" Wei Yi didn't see Zhou Zhi much this holiday, it was the time when Zhou Zhi drove to pick up the third sister and Liu Dachuan into the city, and took Wei Fei for a drive in Wutong Dajing by the way, and glanced at it for a while : "I haven't had time to give you the book. Qiao Mu has finished reading."

"Thank you, Miss Yi, "The Great Gatsby" is a good book."

"It can't be given for free." Wei Yi opened the book: "Looking at the last sentence, how do you translate it?"

Zhou Zhi looked at the last sentence of the book:
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
"You and Qiao Mu had a disagreement?" Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "Then how did you find out?"

"So we went on a boat and went against the current, but we were constantly being rushed back." Wei Yi said, "I turned it over."

"We are struggling forward, like sailing against the current, fighting against the torrent until we are submerged in the long river of time." Wu Qiaomu said: "I turned it over, and also, you just said hello to the girls, not to me. "

"I have an opinion, hold back, let's explore knowledge." Zhou Zhi didn't bother to bother with his brother-in-law about saying hello later, and thought for a while: "This is really hard to read."

"What?"

"Because the current in the middle has a double meaning, corresponding to boats, it means water flow, so you all mentioned the concept of sailing against the current. But you all ignored another meaning."

"What else do you mean?"

"Pay attention to the last word, past, which is the past. Corresponding to this word, current has another meaning—the present."

"So my translation is: We strive forward, fighting against reality, like sailing against the current, but eventually return to the past, because it is difficult to fight against the torrent of time."

"It's ok, elbow!" Wei Yi narrowed his eyes with a smile, and stared at his younger brother in a blink of an eye: "Look at Elbow!"

"There is a way to make him better than physics!" Wei Feizheng Ling Ran: "Let him be thirty!"

Wei Yi was about to beat Wei Fei, but was stopped by Zhou Zhi: "Actually, there is a better translation for this paragraph. It is a masterpiece."

"Who?" Wei Yi suddenly stopped moving: "Is it from the Republic of China?"

In the Republic of China, several masters who were well-versed in both Chinese and Western languages ​​had a very high level of translation, which is hard to come by in general. Wei Yi first thought of those few.

Zhou Zhi shook his head: "Otherwise, this person's translation was more than 1000 years before this novel was published."

"You are talking nonsense, Elbow." Wu Qiaomu said: "There is no reason for the translation to go ahead of the original. It is more than 1000 years earlier. It is pure nonsense."

"Then I'll read it out for my brother-in-law..." Zhou Zhi read leisurely: "Yu is also quietly sad, awe-inspiring and fearful, and he can't stay here. Instead, he boarded a boat, let him go in the middle, and listened to what he wanted. Stop and rest."

"I... I... I... rely on..." Wu Qiaomu was dumbfounded: "This... This is exactly the same artistic conception. It uses the allusion of "Zi Zai Shangshang said: the dead are like a husband", and it is also represented by flowing water. It is a metaphor for time, 'Let it go in the middle, listen to it', the same language has a pun!"

"This is really... amazing!"

"Is that the smell?" Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "The latter sentence is the superficial meaning of the English sentence, and the first sentence is the underlying meaning of the English sentence."

"The last sentence in Francis's works quietly fits with this sentence in the works of ancient Chinese writers. The artistic conception of the words spans thousands of years of time and space."

"So I said that the best translation of this sentence doesn't need us to burn our brains. Isn't it more comfortable to directly quote the masterpieces of the predecessors?"

"Whose sentence did you read, Elbow?" Miss Wei Yi was a little confused, and she didn't quite understand: "You write it out for me to see!"

Zhou Zhi took the brush and recorded this sentence in running script: "Sister, this is a sentence in Su Dongpo's "Ode to the Red Cliff", you must have read it."

Wei Yi blushed: "The "Front Fu" must be memorized, and the "Later Fu" is just an expansion, I have long forgotten."

If you observe carefully, you can find that Wei Yi is not the only one in the room who blushed just now.

Wei Yi didn't pay attention, and happily put away the paper: "The book is yours, this one is mine, I'll take it back to school and show it to the teacher!"

In fact, this can already be regarded as the content of comparative literature. There are both differences and similarities in the expressions of Chinese and Western languages. It is also a very interesting and profound knowledge if you study it carefully.

Of course, it was just a little accidental discovery by Zhou Zhi, but such a small discovery, ordinary people can't find it.

After all, if you don’t have a relatively deep literary background, when you read the original English work of "The Great Gatsby", it is hard to think of Su Dongpo's "Ode to the Red Cliff".

"If the salt mouse is here..." Feng Xueshan looked at Zhou Zhi with a smile, "He would definitely say..."

"Bah, he pretended it again!" He Shiqing immediately connected, with a vivid tone.

Everyone laughed.

"That's it!" Feng Xueshan said with a smile: "The whole room smells bad, go to the kitchen to fix it!"

"Today is full of hard dishes!" Zhou Zhi's fish catch today made him even more proud than before: "Just pack it up and make it tidy. After a while, the small fish will be fried. You can show your poetry and comfort. I just use the chili peppers I learned on Zhongba Island. The method of frying dried fish."

"Shu Yi, go to the fourth floor and have a look. If Tingting is here, ask her to come down and have a feast together."

"Marshal, Passepartout, you two don't even think about running away, the fish you catch yourself must be cleaned with tears in your eyes."

Zhang Xinyi held Jiang Shuyi's arm: "Shuyi, can you teach me later?"

"Okay." Jiang Shuyi didn't dare to talk to Zhou Zhiduo when there were many people, for fear of being ridiculed by a hot sister like Feng Xueshan: "Let's go up together and call Tingting first..."

……

……

In fact, the heads of small fish are delicious after being deep-fried, but there are too many small fish and it is troublesome to pick their gills. Brush off the fish gills, scrape off the fish scales, and throw it into the basin to complete the treatment.

Finally, wash it with clean water in a concentrated way, which is the fastest.
