林语堂先生在重庆北碚有一所私人小房,他举家迁往美国后,把它借给了中华全国文艺界抗敌协会北碚分会,由老向先生代管。此后,这所房有许多文人来住过,最后由两家人分住,东面的一半由老向一家住,西面的一半由我们一家住。父亲老舍先生比我们住进去得早一些。母亲带着我们三个孩子一九四三年秋天由北平逃出来之后,和父亲在这所房子里团聚。在这里,父亲住到抗战胜利后的一九四六年二月,先后共两年半多。他在这里写了长篇小说《火葬》、《四世同堂》第一部和第二部、抗战回忆录《八方风雨》、还有许多短文,诸如系列散文《多鼠斋杂谈》。他戏称这所房子为“多鼠斋”,形容这儿的老鼠成灾。此外,在此期间,他还出版了短篇小说集《贫血集》。在北碚时, Mr. Lin Yutang had a private cubicle in Beibei, Chongqing.
