More and more of China's traditions are included in the cultural heritage, and when the old artists know, they are very happy, they know that the country is helping them, they know that the traditions they love will never be abandoned by the torrent of history.
Opera is the national essence of China, and the commentary is also very famous in China, when it comes to commentary, it is necessary to mention one of the representative figures - Xin Fengxia.
When it comes to Xin Fengxia, some people may not be very clear about her, she is a beautiful woman in the mouth of Premier Zhou, and she is a very favorite apprentice of Qi Baishi, and her love with her husband is even more envied by many people, in addition, Xin Fengxia's contribution to the drama is also indelible, she is known as the queen of the drama.
In 1951, a low-key and luxurious wedding was being held in a place in Beijing, the matchmaker of this wedding was the famous writer Lao She, the witness was Guo Moruo, and the protagonist of the wedding was the above-mentioned Xin Fengxia, and the groom, the audience must be no stranger, is the playwright Wu Zuguang.
This wedding, perhaps not so grand, but so warm, everywhere is notable men's love for women, although there is no wedding dress, but Xin Fengxia is also very happy, because what she married is the love of her life.
Relatives and friends who came, their blessings, and the intertwined wine glasses were the best blessings for them, and at the wedding scene, Xin Fengxia sang her famous song "Liu Qiao'er", and in the gentle singing voice, the guests all heard a woman's yearning for love.
Xin Fengxia's childhood was not good, her father made a living selling sugar gourds, her mother also gave birth to many younger siblings for her, the family lived very poor, in that era, the status of women did not improve, and there were often things that sold their daughters.
Xin Fengxia's neighbor is a widow who does business, the family is very rich, there is only one son with limited IQ below, when she knows that Xin Fengxia's parents have the idea of selling their daughters, the widow came to Xin Fengxia's home and promised her parents a shop.
Just when her parents hesitated, Xin Fengxia found her parents and promised them that she would follow her cousin to learn opera, and then repay her parents after earning money in the future, fortunately, her parents did not lose their conscience as parents, and Xin Fengxia's parents finally agreed to Xin Fengxia's idea.
The road of singing opera is not easy to walk, in the cold winter moon, Xin Fengxia must climb out of the warm bed to practice her voice, the wind blows on her face, like a knife; Xiao Fengxia's hands are often frostbitten, but despite this, Xin Fengxia did not give up and practiced the opera consistently.
When she was 12 years old, Xin Fengxia changed her studies to comment on opera in order to make a living, before this, Xin Fengxia had followed many teams to play, she integrated, and soon learned to comment on the play, Xin Fengxia began to run around, singing to make money.
Although learning to play is to make money, but Xin Fengxia did not lose her duty, singing opera is only for love, not to cater to the public, when Xin Fengxia encountered injustice, she did not compromise, has always insisted on her bottom line.
Finally, it turned out that Xin Fengxia's persistence was not wrong, her character was respected by many artists, and when Lao She met Xin Fengxia, he treated her very differently and became a good friend.
When Xin Fengxia gradually became famous, she received many invitations, although she has been running all over the country, she has always maintained the pursuit of art, everywhere she goes, she will always learn the local culture and learn from the strengths of a hundred families.
Perhaps because of Xin Fengxia's insistence on art, her opera attracted the attention of Premier Zhou Enlai, who admired Xin Fengxia very much and once joked: "I can not drink tea for three days, but I can't not watch Xin Fengxia's opera for three days." ”
In that era, the ultimate destination of a woman is to marry a sweetheart, Xin Fengxia is no exception, as a drama celebrity, Xin Fengxia's side naturally has no shortage of suitors, but Xin Fengxia attaches great importance to her marriage events, perhaps because she has not read books since childhood, Xin Fengxia hopes that she can find a cultured person.
When Lao She knew his marriage requirements for the year, he immediately found it, looking for it, Lao She found Wu Zuguang, Wu Zuguang was born in Jiangnan Water Town, the family is a famous local family, Wu Zuguang is deeply influenced by the family, and is very good at writing drama.
To say that the two people also have a cooperation, Xin Fengxia has acted in a commentary written by Wu Zuguang, although they have never met, in 1951, Xin Fengxia met Wu Zuguang at a meeting, when she saw Wu Zuguang's first face, Xin Fengxia determined her future husband, after the meeting, Lao She introduced the two people to know.
With the increase in the number of meetings, Xin Fengxia is more certain of her future husband, but Wu Zuguang is a gentle character, Xin Fengxia always does not express her position under repeated hints, Xin Fengxia has no way, can only bluntly say to Wu Zuguang that I like you, the slow and hot Wu Zuguang did not immediately give the new Fengxia an answer.
Perhaps because of a failed marriage, or because of the repeated obstructions of friends around him, or perhaps the age difference between the two people was large, Wu Zuguang did not promise Xin Fengxia at that time. Just when Xin Fengxia was about to give up, Wu Zuguang finally had a positive answer, and the love between everyone and the writer in the opera began.
After getting married, Xin Fengxia began to learn culture, Wu Zuguang led Xin Fengxia to study like a teacher, when a chance Qi Baishi met Xin Fengxia, when even if he admired Xin Fengxia, he accepted her as an apprentice, and also laid the foundation for her to carry out her second career later.
Wu Zuguang was sent to a remote area, and when someone advised Xin Fengxia to divorce, Xin Fengxia firmly said that she could afford to wait for several years. Because of the lack of clear boundaries, Xin Fengxia's acting career was threatened, and the former drama queen became the object of bullying by many people.
Due to years of bullying and frequent fatigue, Xin Fengxia suffered a cerebral hemorrhage that caused permanent paralysis in the lower body, and since then, Xin Fengxia has left her favorite stage, and after leaving the stage, she did not complain about herself, but opened her second career, and in her later life, teaching, drawing and writing books became all.
In the paintings of Xin Fengxia, there will always be Wu Zuguang's inscription, which is the embodiment of Wu Zuguang's love for Xin Fengxia, who does not know the words, Wu Zuguang set up a study room for Xin Fengxia to study, after this, Xin Fengxia wrote a lot of literary works, thousands of paintings.
Looking back at Xin Fengxia's life, she created a new school, with countless disciples under her, and Wu Zuguang who understood her and accompanied her husband like this.
Therefore, Xin Fengxia once said: Although she is paralyzed now, she is happy enough to have my husband's company.
