Shen Congwen's novel "Border City" is like a landscape painting with a beautiful scenery, the clear and clear natural scenery of the small mountain town of Chatong in western Hunan Province, and the artistic style of the quaint architectural stilt house, which is fascinating. In the painting, the figure of the ferry girl Cuicui turning her back to row the boat is reflected in the stream, which is a beautiful picture of the unity of heaven and man. Why is there some humor in the middle of the painting?
From the book to find the unforgettable memories of Cuicui's life, the course of life lies in the perception of the true meaning of love, Cuicui's pure natural wildness, innocence and simplicity. In the book, she explores her mental journey, and feels her shyness and spontaneous simplicity from her movements, language, fantasies, dreams, contemplation, and integration with the surrounding natural scenery environment. And the love she encountered in her life.
Cuicui and Grandpa crossed the river in May to see the boating, and Grandpa went back to replace the people who watched the ferry to see the rowing shun, and took Cuicui home by the way. As a result, the man was drunk and Grandpa could not leave the ferry. Cuicui sat alone on the dock waiting for Grandpa. At this time, the river climbed up to the shore and sent (the second elder) to let Cuicui go to his house. Cuicui didn't know who this person was at first, and misunderstood the second elder who said a few words, "Cut off the brain shell at the wrong time", "The fish bites me and I don't care about you", "Dog, dog, you call people to look at people barking!" But what he sent was a different kind of kindness. When it was dark, the second old man sent someone to send Cuicui home. The person who delivered Cuicui on the road told him that the person was the second elder of the well-known nickname "Yue Yun" in the place of Cha Tong. CuiCui was surprised and shy in her heart. After returning, Cuicui was silent for a night. Didn't tell Grandpa about meeting the second elder.
The seeds of love are planted in the heart field of Cuicui, and this sweet encounter is always recalled, and the young buds of love are restless in the heart. Cuicui fell in love with the second elder at first sight.
Goethe said that young men who are not kind and young women who are not good at spring are the most holy and most divine in our human nature.
Cuicui remembered and missed the second elder in her heart, and on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, she came to the stilt building of the family, and heard that the second elder was in Qinglang Beach, so she asked her grandfather whether her grandfather's boat was also in Qinglang Beach. No one understands where the other person's memory ends. Cuicui's heart was only the second old, and when Grandpa mentioned that Cuicui would be eaten by a big fish by himself by the river, He laughed when he mentioned the old thing.
Pure and natural love sprouts in Cuicui's heart. Memories of sweet encounters. Cuicui's heart rejoiced infinitely. Where the second elder was, Cuicui's mind flew to that place. I have a deep love for the second old man.
Finally seeing the person who thinks day and night, the second elder went to Cuicui's house to deliver Grandpa's wine gourd. Shout Cuicui back to accompany the guests. Originally, no one wanted to go ashore to burn the fire, but Grandpa shouted and did not go ashore. At this time, the second elder himself disembarked. Cuicui saw that the person was staring at her, turned his face back, pursed his mouth, and silently pulled the horizontal cable. The second old man and Cuicui went to see the rowing boat, and Cuicui was embarrassed not to speak. There was a chance to talk face to face with the second old man who said that the big fish bit Cuicui. Cuicui said to guard the ship with her grandfather. The second old man sent someone to replace the guard ship.
Cuicui came to the stilt tower of the Second Old Home to watch the rowing boat. The boat paddled along the River Street Stilt House. CuiCui saw that the young man with the red cloth wrapped around his head at the bow of the ship standing still and waving the small flag was the second elder. Cuicui heard someone talking, "The second elder likes a ferry", "Just by looking at the strength of the second elder today, you can guess that this momentum was given to him by a yellow flower girl on the shore." Cuicui's face burned and she walked away.
Hearing the second elder talk about the situation of the second elder, he pulled her heartstrings from time to time. Cuicui's shyness is caused by natural character, there is no earthly distraction, pure and clear human beauty, and good and beautiful heart.
Cuicui went downstairs to look down at the river, and was among the beams and pillars of a row of stilt buildings, he met a group of people hugging the second elder. The road was too narrow, and although Cuicui flashed aside, she still had to touch her elbow. The second elder saw Cuicui calling and let Cuicui go upstairs. Cuicui's face is feverish and inconvenient to make sounds. The heart is full of something that is not clear, is it a trouble? Is it happy, right? Angry, right? She really felt as if she was angry with someone. After that, the second elder came and stood in front of Cuicui and smiled. The three of them went back upstairs.
Later, the second elder pursued love alone. In the middle of the night, he went to Bixi To sing love songs, but he was not known to Cuicui. Cuicui heard it in the dream, and said to her grandfather, "I heard a song in my dream yesterday, soft and entangled, and I flew everywhere like this voice, flying to the waist of the cliff opposite the creek." After picking a large handful of tiger ear grass, when I got to tiger ear grass, I don't know who gave this thing to. I slept so well, and the dream was so funny. ”
Cuicui depicts sweet dreams, which is actually a sweet feeling of hazy love, and also an infinite yearning for love in the subconscious. Shy and pure true love, buried in the heart, why not show your heart.
Cuicui heard someone shouting transition, and the back of the shadow of the oblique sun could see very clearly, it was the second elder and the long years in his family! Cuicui was shocked, and like the little beast saw the hunter, he turned around and ran away into the mangosteen forest.
Cuicui is obsessed with the second old, but the infinite feelings are deeply suppressed in the bottom of the heart, dare not say it, the past love did not say it, it became a disregard for the second old, the second old also did not know Cuicui's fiery heart, did not understand Cuicui's cowering and shrinking behavior, and even misunderstood. A pair of lovers who admired each other, under Cuicui's dare not face the affection, passed by, how regrettable.
In the face of love, Cuicui dodged and dodged. Not daring to face it, let alone actively pursuing it, traditional thoughts are deeply rooted in her soul, controlling her pure feelings, so that her love is lost to her in one dodge after another.
Fight against fate and meet the beautiful hope that belongs to Cuicui.
Grandpa left quietly in a heavy rain. Cuicui did not go to the second old home to live, and the name was not fixed. Pull boats at the ferry port of Bikhe Tsui. Waiting for the second old man to go to Taoyuan to return. Cuicui firmly believes that the second elder will return, the obstacle on the road of the two people's feelings has been eliminated, the father of the second elder Shun shun has agreed to Cuicui as the daughter-in-law of the second elder, not to mention the brother in heaven also hopes that the brother and the second elder love is happy and happy, and the lover will eventually become a family. The second elder also believed that his life was a ferry.
Cuicui believes that she will overcome all kinds of tribulations, fight a protracted struggle against her bumpy fate, and in the setbacks of love, her character also shows softness and rigidity. She was willing to wait for the second elder until the day when the two of them were happy to see each other. Cuicui bravely expressed all the true love in her heart.
