"Weekly pickpocket, fifty-one, three more in the middle of the night to steal chickens, we are doing a game, a handful of grabbing Zhou pickpocket."
Looking back now, because of "Chicken Crying in the Middle of the Night" and Zhou Peel, we spent a lot of happy times, learned to love and hate clearly since childhood, and gave birth to a compassionate heart that sympathized with the weak.
Chickens crow in the middle of the night
"Chicken Crying in the Middle of the Night" is a classic of new Chinese literature, and the article uses short and concise length, simple and unpretentious language, vivid stories, and true and credible plots to profoundly reveal the cruel and shameless exploitation and oppression of the peasants by the landlords. When the article came out, it was recognized and praised by the vast number of oppressed and exploited orders and other readers, and naturally it was opposed by opponents.
A Chinese writer tells American schoolchildren the story of "Chickens Crying in the Middle of the Night." The results have raised questions. Just as the old man was preparing to end the "Chinese story", a dark-skinned boy suddenly raised his hand to show that after the translation of the old man, the little boy felt that this story was not true and deceitful, how could the chicken crow in the middle of the night?
A boy said that this story is not true, how can a chicken crow in the middle of the night? At this time, another girl also raised an objection: this story is very absurd, how can you work in the fields in the middle of the night? Doesn't that kill all the crops?
The writer said busily: "This is a real thing, Gao Yubao wrote in his autobiographical novel "Gao Yubao". ”
American elementary school students shouted a pot of porridge: Zhou Peel was dishonest; Gao Yubao is also not honest, others help him write novels, how can he only sign his own name? It's so unfair! It's so unfair! A black classmate said, "I've raised chickens and made scientific observations about them. For a chicken to crow, there must be two conditions, one is an adult rooster, and the other is to have the stimulation of natural light.
At dawn, an hour before sunrise, around 3:30 a.m., the faint light stimulates the rooster's vision and produces a conditioned reflex of crying. In the middle of the night, at 12 o'clock in the morning, it was pitch black, and it was impossible for the chickens to bark.
There is also a little fat child who says: Zhou Peel is not trustworthy, dishonest, a man, how can he learn to rooster call?
They categorically denied the veracity of the story of "chickens crowing in the middle of the night" on the grounds that when it was not dawn, the landlord would not ask the long-term workers to work in the fields, because they could not see anything when the sky was not bright, and the long-term workers could not work at all. Even when "Lao Liang said things", Lao Liang even asserted that the author (Gao Yubao) was a nonsense.
In response to those voices that "rehabilitated" Zhou Pickpocket, Comrade Gao Yubao angrily replied to the reporter: "Zhou Pickpocket is a bully landlord with a bloody case. It is true that he was beaten to death by the angry crowd when he was criticized for fighting. He did so many more bad and ugly things than I wrote about in books. I saved him enough face. ”
Gao Yubao
If you understand Chinese language habits, you won't be entangled. When China says midnight, it does not refer specifically to twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. There is also the saying of the first half of the night and the second half of the night. There is a saying that it is deeper and more midnight, and the emphasis is that it is the middle of the night instead of the middle of the night. Therefore, the night is very deep, and it is still early in the morning, which can be called midnight. Gao Yubao's time and people's habits, midnight certainly does not mean twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. Defining midnight by twelve o'clock to deny that the midnight chicken bark is purely for the purpose of lifting the bar. Most of the young people who lift the bar are young people who do not understand the habits. As for foreigners, they are even less informed. There is a big gap between culture and diploma.
In the face of doubt, we must have cultural self-confidence! Tell us what you think!
