Reflections on Border Town
Random thoughts on the border town 1 A novel by Shen Congwen, a literary master, describes his hometown as picturesque as a dream; Huang Yongyu, a master of calligraphy and painting, traveled all over the world, but stubbornly wrote down his deep homesickness with a "Duocui Building". Maybe you will be curious, what kind of land it is that will make them so attached. I have had such doubts, but when you really set foot on the land of the Millennium Phoenix, I believe you will also have an inexplicable feeling for the Phoenix.
He leisurely set foot on the vicissitudes of bluestone alley, gently stroking the mottled gray wall, as if mumbling about the thousand-year history of Phoenix. On the left hand side, the river from Tuojiang River slowly flows in front of Fenghuang's house, building a charming bridge. Wow, it's quite Huizhou architecture.
Walking out of the alley and blowing a breeze in the pavilion really enjoyed it. In front of us is the Tuojiang River, which is as smooth and quiet as a beautiful emerald. Only when residents in the ancient city wash clothes by the river, ripples will bring you back to reality. On the other side of the river is a row of diaojiao buildings, which are not as majestic as the Forbidden City, but also have a faint majesty. It is said that this place was once the summer resort of the toast king!
Go on, cross Hongqiao and walk into the antique alleys of Phoenix. The alley is incredibly quiet, and Chaoyang Palace's exquisite carving reveals the charm of the Phoenix in those days. However, today's Phoenix is more like an ancient and rare old man, who can be so calm after vicissitudes. In this way, a feeling of being far away from the world arises spontaneously, which makes all people who are physically and mentally exhausted take off their disguise. Phoenix has another kind of pure beauty.
Soon, we set foot on the wall of the ancient city of Fenghuang. The small hole in the wall is said to be a passage for brave people in Phoenix to shoot off invaders. Tourists walk quietly on the endless city wall and gently touch the ancient city wall, as if remembering the past.
The Tuojiang River, which flows slowly along the city wall, has nurtured the children of several generations in the ancient city. Sitting on Wu Peng's boat, listening to the singer's songs and watching the Tujia diaojiao building with a history of 100 years on both sides of the strait have a unique charm. The water in Tuojiang River is very clear, and the current is slow or urgent. If you are lucky, you can also see the swaying aquatic plants under the water. I couldn't help putting my hand into the river, and a refreshing coolness spread rapidly. Phoenix, the ancient city, seems to have washed away all the dust and noise for you.
No wonder Phoenix Gu Chenghui is known as the most beautiful town in China. Stone Hutong in the city, ancient courtyard in Ming and Qing Dynasties; The Tuojiang River winds outside the city, and the paddle sounds like a boat. How can this quiet and serene town scenery not be emotional?
If it weren't for the storm that night, perhaps life would continue in the dull. The budding love idea may go forward in twists and turns. However, it was this storm that took the ferry and Cui Cui's only relative, her grandfather. Maybe he lived for the ferry here, so when the ferry was washed away, the author gave them the same fate. Life is like this, there will always be extinction and there will always be continuation. Just when the old boatman's ferry was washed away, a new ferry appeared again. Just like the little granddaughter who inherited grandpa's will, she is still doing the ferry.
There are no vigorous deeds, not many distinctive characters, and even pure love is just budding, unlike a blazing flame. It is in this dullness that the author shows us a picture of a quiet life. Like a clear stream in the mountains, like a white cloud floating in the sky. But this is the true meaning of life. This is the Border Town that I have read.
There is also a tragic love story hidden in it, and that is Cui Cui's parents. Although there is no positive story, it can still be shocking. The story ended tragically, leaving only the lonely little girl guarding the lonely ferry. However, tragedy can infect people more. Because tragedy consciousness is necessary for any mature nation and any mature culture.
In my opinion, the three elements of the novel, the characters, the plot and the environment, are the most successful in describing the environment, and its portrayal of the characters plays an important role in the development of the plot.
"Border Town 3" reflects that the tone of "Border Town" is melancholy, but what we see should not only be melancholy.
Cui Cui's parents were both martyred because of their love, and a good-natured Tianbao died because he could not get Cui Cui's love. Because of her brother's death, she and the old boatman had estrangement and misunderstanding, and finally ran away from home. Worried about Cui Cui's fate, the old boatman was exhausted and died on a stormy night. The White Pagoda, a symbol of local geomantic omen, collapsed, leaving only Cui Cui, an "orphan girl", hopelessly waiting for her lover's return.
All this seems sad, but we can't be overcome by negative colors. People fall into despair because they will explore hope.
Cui Cui's parents are together after all; Tianbao is also free from the pain of not getting love; It's good for the old boatman to have such a clever granddaughter and raise her. Cui Cui is alone, but she still has hope. This is the charm of this book. Border Town expresses the author's life sustenance through the tragedy of the characters. He deeply regrets the existence of the lower class people in western Hunan, which is suffering and pity, so he gives them infinite hope in his book. To create such beautiful and desolate music.
Maybe we will fall into pain and misfortune, but at least we can choose to overcome it.
Reflections on Border Town 4 Recently, I read Mr. Shen Congwen's masterpiece Border Town, and I was deeply touched. I was deeply attracted by the small towns in western Hunan described by him.
At the beginning of the novel, a quiet and natural rural scene unfolds before us. Teacher Shen told the ordinary life of three generations of old workers, grandparents and grandchildren, living together in Xiangxi Town Teahouse. Cui Cui, the hero, is a girl like Guanyin, a beautiful spirit bred by the mountains and rivers in western Hunan. She is naive, kind and shy, and yearns for a better life and love. She is a symbol of the border town. The deep affection between Cui Cui and grandpa, the hazy and fruitless love between Cui Cui and Nuosong, the brotherhood between Tianbao and Nuosong, and the harmonious neighborhood relationship between grandparents and villagers ... * * * outlined the simple customs.
The story unfolds slowly and clearly like a stream, and every character is tied to his heart. It seems that the narrative is plain and the language is full of colloquialism, but it makes people taste an elegant aesthetic feeling, which is really amazing. In this story, there are no twists and turns, no exciting contradictions and conflicts, but a simple town and its simple people are written with true feelings. Mr. Shen Congwen's brushwork is delicate and quiet, with a touch of sadness, which makes me no longer impetuous in the noisy modern city and slowly immerse myself in this paradise.
My father has been away for five years. I'm in my prime, and I'm restless. However, my father told me that the prosperity of the world is just empty, and some things can't wait. There are many people in transition, and there are many happy events and funerals. I am used to people's sad faces or happy teams. I always watch the hostess of the wedding, guess the provocative face under the red handkerchief, and when I think of it, my palms sweat, forcing myself to stop watching it, so as not to make some mistakes. I hold a young heart and consume myself in the mountains and rivers. After a long time, my heart will be very calm. As I grew older, I learned to sit on the slate and drink soju with a burning throat, waiting for what would happen.
Another year, I sat on the steps covered with hay and waited for the ferry. There came a girl with a handkerchief, unlike all the women I have ever seen in the city. She hung her face, didn't wear makeup, and sipped her mouth ... I kept watching and waiting for a while, but I didn't feel rude, but there was a voice in my heart saying it was her. I remembered my father's words again. I have to wait. So I pressed down my uneven heart and propped up the boat to meet the girl who crossed the shore. This trip, I just feel that the river bank is too close and the water is too fast. I really hope that time will not freeze. Did I meet the right person, just like my father met my mother?
As I approached the shore, the girl's foot slipped. I reached out to help her and touched her warm arm. There is an indescribable numbness in the fingertips, and I forgot to let go for a while. Looking up at her watery eyes is smarter than the stream I accompany every day. I am really sinking. The girl broke free gently. I thought it was possessed. I held her hand tightly and asked her with a smile, what's your name, girl? She pursed her lips and smiled. My name is Axiu. Can you let go? I let go of her handkerchief and told her to leave. When I woke up, I caught a glimpse of the wallet I left on the ground. Unless she left a token? I sat on the rock, returned it to her when she came back, and looked up at the clouds.
Thoughts on Border Town 6 Shen Congwen is one of the best writers in this century and a famous expert in material and cultural history.

Green mountains and green waters, the old ferryman by the river, 16-year-old Cui Cui, natural forest protection on the river raft, and vigorous dragon boat. ...
Everything in Border Town is so pure and natural, showing a poetic natural environment and humanistic society. However, in the end, all the good things can only be left in my memory: one of Tianbao and Nuonuo died, the other ran away, and my grandfather died in a stormy night. A natural love story ended in tragedy. Border Town is a classic text of Miao nationality fable in western Hunan.

I wanted to name this article Water-but I couldn't ignore that the other part went against my heart, so I named it Pure Beauty and Violence.
Pure and beautiful
It dripped down the spine of the book clearly. It flows to my nails and permeates; Then I heard the song, that is the soil after the rain, that is the fragrance that has not melted, that is the emotion that was born; Into a gaseous, moist poem that gently covers my eyelashes. I want to really understand, but what I can deeply feel at this time is only the dullness of my thinking and language.
I have watched Eight Horses, or A Man's Wife for more than three times, but I still find it a bit obscure. However, in reading, the pure environment, pure people and pure dialogue have never changed. Just like the waves, only a few pearls refuse to burst into scattered pieces at the edge of the reef-but you can still feel the rhythm and trend of its rolling forward, and then be inspired and moved by it.
Every character here has a name. The author seems to start with "people" and then create a sweet environment. Everyone has a very distinctive feature: every time she looks up, every moment, and even every time she opens her mouth, it is naturally formed but can't be changed-just like Cui Cui in Border Town, she refuses to accept the call of others, and something must be intertwined in her heart. She always has to untie the rope before she can answer, otherwise she won't look like Cui Cui. Although each character is unique, they are similar as the Ganges River. Therefore, the superposition of pure beauty on pure beauty, although not dizzy enough to be trapped in it, is enough to make people feel faint doubts and sacred sorrow. Therefore, I still hope to write violence to make myself a little clearer.
violence
There are many forms of violence in Border Town. There is physical violence, emotional violence and, of course, violence suffered by the soul. For example, The Last Festival is full of violence of flogging prisoners to death, Tiger cub shows great violence of disillusionment, Seven Savages and The Last Spring Festival show people's resistance to violence that is completely stifled. Every kind of violence will inevitably give people a heavy blow, but after this blow, it will bring thinking, pity, and even resentment against areas that they have never dared to set foot in.
There are also many articles in which pure beauty and violence coexist. They are like a balance, and the balance has reached a state that makes me flinch. The best examples are Mizu, Leopard and Sheep. I don't know how to understand this pure and violent love story.
After reading Border Town, it seems that I only saw some good mountains and waters.
As a woman who grew up in the city, I especially look forward to the idyllic city life. Recently, I read Mr. Shen Congwen's Border Town, and the border town and water town described by the master made me feel nostalgic.
"Border Town" tells the ordinary and quiet life of a pair of grandparents and grandchildren in a small town in western Hunan, as well as the loneliness and faint sadness that are hard to erase in this ordinary and quiet. Cui Cui, the hero of the novel, has a hazy and endless love affair, but love is not the whole story. With his greasy style, the master told the simple customs, primitive and simple life and picturesque scenery of Xiangxi town.
Life in Xiangxi is simple and hard. The master told me clearly that a person's love for a piece of land means understanding its cruelty and loving the intoxicating scenery behind it. After reading the whole article, I began to look forward to that remote border town in western Hunan. Wooden stilts, swaying red lanterns, wet bluestones, narrow ferries, slender white towers and green smoke rising from ancient villages. All this has formed a long-term painting, which has been described over and over again in my imagination. In that distant land, time seems to stand still. Cui Cui, the heroine, is as gentle and honest as Xiang Shui in Ming Che. Her singing is euphemistic and clear, her grandfather is kind and generous, and the boatman is romantic and unrestrained. Even her career helplessness is full of poetic color in this place, which is too beautiful to be profaned. The master used his story to show us the helplessness and sadness of Xiangxi people in the face of luck, but it also made us feel pity for life and believe that human nature is good.
I most yearn for those simple and kind folks in the border town. Cui Cui and her grandfather went to watch the dragon boat race, and the local leader brother gave them a lot of food. Some people married brides, and Cui Cui's grandfather sent them across the river without charging ferry fees. When Cui Cui's grandfather died, all the villagers around him came to help. Although they lead a hard life, they may help each other and live as a family in that remote town. In contrast, we live in a reinforced concrete city every day, and people are indifferent. Sometimes, you don't even know your neighbors. This has to be regrettable. I hope that one day, our city will become warm and harmonious. Everyone has a quiet fantasy, and there is no selfishness between people. They cherish our living environment, help each other and build a unique home-like world. And all this requires us to live with a kind heart like the people in Border Town.
After reading the border town 10, there is a tea cave at the junction of Sichuan and Hunan, and there is a border town by the mountains and rivers; Away from the hubbub and the world, calm and peaceful as a fairyland; Surrounded by mountains, the scenery is picturesque, and the white tower stands like a blue; An old man and a young man are often accompanied by a dog and a boat.
After reading the book Border Town, the miniature of Cui Cui appeared in my mind. After watching the movie Border Town, Cui Cui appeared in my mind. Reviewing the story "Border Town" reminds me of love. Looking back at the plot of Border Town, we can see the affection in front of us. I can't forget Cui Cui's big eyes, being ignorant of the world, clear and clear; I can't forget Cui Cui's face that "clear water gives hibiscus, natural carving"; I can't forget Cui Cui's love that touched the world.
I can't forget grandpa's eyes, those eyes full of vicissitudes and deep. I can't forget grandpa's face, which is slowly wrinkling and weather-beaten; I can't forget my grandfather's sincerity in loving his granddaughter and caring for his friends. I can't forget grandpa's open-mindedness and relief.
Cui Cui is so naive, so kind, so gentle, so simple, so pure; She is so beautiful, so moving, so enthusiastic, so diligent, so simple; She is so strong, so brave, so stubborn, so sincere, so pure, so true. She felt sorry for losing her parents, sympathized for not being loved by her relatives, cherished being alone with her grandfather, grieved for being with the ferryman, worried about falling in love with her, and grieved for waiting for her lover.
Cui Cui's grandfather is so kind, so simple, so hardworking, so diligent, so loyal, so simple and honest. He took the responsibility of taking care of Cui Cui alone, and has been thinking and paving the way for the future of Cui Cui. He has always been loyal to his duties, devoted himself to his work, and has always been charitable, asking for nothing in return. But God is so unfair to him. He lost his son and daughter-in-law, leaving only a child in a bad business to take care of. He was preoccupied with his granddaughter, but left Cui Cui in the waiting sea; He was always optimistic about his life, but unfortunately he fell ill and died. He was always bright and open-minded, but he died with disappointment, regret, helplessness and bitterness. This ending is really heartbreaking and uncomfortable.
Mr. Shen Congwen's Border Town left us with grief and deep thought. I hope everyone can learn something useful from it, see something valuable and get some profound enlightenment.
Random thoughts on the border town 1 1 A remote town, a rugged love road.
Cui Cui, an ordinary Xiangxi girl in a remote town, is the embodiment of the city. She endured everything silently. Her grandfather who loved her died on a thunderstorm night, Tianbao drowned, the White Tower collapsed, and the young lovers who loved each other left silently. She still repeats her mother's fate, but just waits.
Tianbao and Nuosong, a pair of brothers who attach great importance to love and righteousness. But they all fell in love with the same Xiangxi girl, that is Cui Cui. On the one hand, it is brotherhood, on the other hand, it is love. Tianbao finally chose to let go. He gave up the girl he loved deeply and finished his farewell.
But fate always likes to play tricks on mortals.
Tianbao was killed in an accident, and Nuo guiltily sent his brother away alone, leaving one person behind.
What a cruel love.
Cui Cui finally stayed in this small town, but her grandfather died because he was too worried. There are no relatives around. She is still infatuated with the return of her lover.
It was the white tower that fell in the wind and rain that was rebuilt. Everything that passed away in the storm is irreparable, and we will continue to live in this small town.
If my grandfather stopped hesitating, if Tianbao didn't die unfortunately, if Cui Cui reached out and caught the dying love, would the stock market still end like this? Or, what could it be?
Cui Cui Love is just a bet on the future.
That person may never come back, and may come back tomorrow.
Random Thoughts on Border Town 12 In Border Town, my grandfather didn't see Cui Cui's happiness until his death, and it took a long time to see Cui Cui show his mind, so Border Town (maybe) had a sad ending. But is waiting the only way?
"First-class, second-class, third-class, second-class, third-class success", if Cui Cui took the initiative to talk to her parents, if her grandfather told Cui Cui the truth in time, if her parents directly confessed to Cui Cui, the ending of the story might not be like this. Unfortunately, there is no if. They all chose to wait.
Sometimes, waiting is a manifestation of wisdom, which is undeniable: when there is nothing to do, it is a wise man's behavior to secretly accumulate strength and wait for the right time. But at some point, waiting is negative. If everyone is waiting for autumn on a sunny day, why is there an electric fan air conditioner now? In today's society, due to the rapid growth of population, there are fewer and fewer opportunities for "waiting". In order to get good development opportunities, we must work hard and strive for them with our own strength.
If you can calm down and prepare while waiting, you are likely to succeed, but not many people can really do it. Most people always think that waiting is doing nothing, and not many people can calm down in this impetuous world, so I think we can't walk the "road" of waiting, so why not strive for it? The reflection and summary after each attempt may pave a road to success for you. This kind of success is different from waiting for success, which will make you feel more proud and full, and will make you realize the meaning of hard work.
So if you can't wait for the opportunity, try another direction. You can't keep doing the same thing and expect the results to change. Maybe this time, the opportunity is waiting for you not far away, watching you snicker and waiting.
Random thoughts on the border town 13 Shen Congwen's novels depict the beautiful scenery of the border town in western Hunan with quiet style, prose style and poetic artistic conception. The world in the border town is simple, kind, quiet and peaceful, and the simplest feelings flow between people.
I was moved by Cui Cui's simplicity and cuteness. "Innocent and lively, like a little beast everywhere. People are so good, just like the yellow deer on the mountain. They have never thought about cruelty, never worried, and never got angry. " "When I met a stranger on the ferry and paid attention to her, I looked at the stranger with my bare hands as if I could escape to the mountains at any time, but when I understood that the person in front had no intention of taking the opportunity, I played leisurely by the water." In Mr. Shen Congwen's pen, the image of a little girl who was born with education came alive. Cui Cui is the embodiment of truth, goodness and beauty, but life is cruel and realistic. The great god died unexpectedly, and both parents gave birth to a knot because of the stillbirth of the old man. Grandpa died of illness because he was worried about Cui Cui's life, and three people who deeply loved Cui Cui finally left her. But life has to go on. Cui Cui's father's colleague Ma Lao Bing and Cui Cui live together in Bixi Village. The young man who sang in the moonlight and let Cui Cui float his soul gently because he sang in his sleep may never come back, maybe he will come back tomorrow.
I was moved by this simple and kind world, "Don't cry! Stop crying! Listen to me, I know everything in grandpa's heart, I have everything; I will arrange your affairs and live up to your grandfather. I'll arrange it. I will make every effort. I want to find someone who is happy with grandpa and you to receive this ferry. It can't be what we want. Although I am old, I can still fight them with a sickle. Cui Cui, don't worry, I have everything! ..... "These sincere words and actions are very rare in today's society. It is precisely because of the friendship between people and the lack of trust that they yearn for the small town described in Border Town and expect all the truth, goodness and beauty to happen.
Knowing that time was running out, the old boatman dragged his sick body to find lifelong support, but he was given a cold shoulder by his father and son. When the old boatman passed away quietly on that thunderstorm night, his heart was full of disappointment and worry, and my tears could not help flowing down.
At the end of the article, the white tower that fell in the storm has been rebuilt. The author seems to want to tell us that although many things that died in the storm can't come back, the living will continue to live after the storm.
Random Thoughts on Border Town 14 This is his Border Town brought to us by Mr. Wang. A quiet city seems to be enduring something from beginning to end. Cui Cui is the embodiment of this success. Since she fell in love with the person who can take her dream to the distance with singing, she chose silence. Although her heart is ups and downs, her surface is consistent.
Grandfather died in a thunderstorm night, Tianbao drowned and the White Tower collapsed. Cui Cui still can't get rid of her mother's fate, but she waits. "That person may never come back, maybe he will come back tomorrow." I have always been curious about what made Mr. Wang paint such a kind fairy tale so sad. Mr. Wang was born at the beginning of19th century. At that time, China was facing a serious national crisis. It had just ended the feudal slavery rule of 1000 years under the eyes of western powers, and was in the darkest period of warlord scuffle. On the one hand, it is influenced by feudal thoughts for thousands of years, and on the other hand, it is full of western culture.
In that turbulent era, the land of China was in flames of war and the people were in dire straits. After the baptism of the New Culture Movement, Mr. Wang resolutely chose this simple and beautiful land of Xiangxi. These gentle and frank people whisper the sadness of the whole nation in poetic language and call for the natural conscience of the Chinese people. It is because of their deep love that these sad words were born.
I have been thinking, named border town, is it so far away in your heart, or is it guarding something in your heart? In fact, don't we all have a "border town" in our hearts? Perhaps Mr. Wang's "City of Compassion" sank into a heavy background with the torrent of history, leaving us with thoughts on life and society. Looking for my border town and inner peace, I think I will have a border town.
Thoughts on Border Town 15 Shen Congwen's Border Town is an intriguing work. After reading this book, I was inspired a lot.
Biancheng Tea Cave is located at the junction of Hunan, Sichuan and Guizhou provinces. The Border Town written by Shen Congwen has a strong local flavor. On May 1 this year, I was lucky enough to go to the countryside, visit the virgin forest and experience the fun of farmers. Rivers, mountains and rivers, ferries, bamboo forests, huts and small towns are all stunners of nature. They are ordinary, quiet, unassuming and exude their unique beauty. This made me see the shadow of the border town and its simple village. And this simple border town, like the paradise described by the author, exudes a charming atmosphere. If one word is used to sum up the scenery of a small town, it is "border". The artistic conception of this small town is as soft as poetry, and this fresh and refined realm is fascinating and lingering.
The author described the natural scenery of the town with a lot of pen and ink, creating a harmonious and quiet atmosphere for the town. This beautiful environment sets off the simple and enthusiastic character of the people in the town. Here, there is no smoke of vanity fair, no vagaries of shopping malls, only indifferent to fame and fortune, sincere and sincere human brilliance. The small town here is very calm and people's mood is relatively calm, so the word "quiet" is used to describe the people here. This word praises the beautiful hearts of people in small towns. They are not as noisy and noisy as city people, but a rare and refined word, "Jing", which is for the beautiful characters and characters in Border Town.
