Features: This is a sequel to Chuanyuan Suohua. The author chose the title to reflect the leisurely conversations while basking in the sun, writing articles in the early 1980s about the old people and events centered around Peking University in the early 1930s. It includes over 60 pieces about figures like Zhang Taiyan and Huang Huiwén, published in 1986. The intention was to record memorable people, touching events, and cherished emotions. The author once said, "It was written as if it were poetry and history," so the style is always light yet serious, humorous yet poignant. After its publication, numerous reviews and articles were published in domestic and international newspapers and magazines such as Dushu, , Guangming Daily, Wen Hui Reading Weekly, Evening News, Youth News, Hong Kong's , and Eastern Culture, among others. They praised the author's profound insights and deep emotions, describing his writing as "flowing like clouds and water," natural and effortless, creating a modern Shishuo Xinyu. It portrays the passage of time with a sense of compassion for humanity, a longing for the past and reflection on the present, extraordinary depth in its essence, and exceptional literary skill, all of which are rare in recent years. Starting in the autumn of 1988, the author wrote more such pieces, arranged by person, place, event, and theme, resulting in over 50 additional pieces about figures like Su Hongming and Zhang Qingtong, collected in this sequel. It is preceded by a preface by Mr. Qi Gong. Compared to Chuanyuan Suohua, Chuanyuan Suohua is less restrained, broader and deeper in scope, yet the meaning is even clearer. Readers of Chuanyuan Suohua and those who enjoy similar conversational-style books should definitely read this.
