Reading "Old Things in the South of the City" has a feeling of going south of the city. In Lin's "South of the City", everyone's different fate and vicissitudes are vividly reflected in her childish language. Seemingly ordinary people, things and things are experiencing the cycle of fate and their different views on the world.
Childhood is beautiful and bizarre for eiko. She described the protagonist's representative fate in plain words. Poor Xiuzhen has an incomplete love affair and a small laurel with Sikang. But he never came back, and the illegitimate child was thrown into the Seven Flowers Gate. At that time, she became a "madman" in people's eyes, but she persisted. But when she found Xiao Guizi with the help of Eiko, the newly reunited mother and daughter both disappeared under the train wheels in order to escape from real life and find their loved ones ... and Aunt Lan, who dared to pursue happiness and was optimistic in the face of setbacks; Ma Song, forbearing, strong, simple and kind, lost everything after taking good care of the Eiko family for four years. My son died early, but my daughter was sold by her cruel husband. She was the tragic fate of that era.
The whole book is written from Beijing's hutongs, quadrangles, painting academies and Hui 'an Pavilion to roadside restaurants and children selling newspapers ... It exudes a strong local flavor everywhere, which is even more true in Lin's works. She wrote down her hopes and wishes for her childhood. In fact, what Bazaka said is very reasonable: childhood is the most wonderful stage of life. At that time, the child was a flower, a fruit, a hazy' intelligence', an endless activity and a strong desire.
Eiko's world is simple and kind. Like all children, she is called an ignorant child by adults. Maybe she is also the smartest at some point. Maybe she doesn't know much about the world, but sometimes she may be the person who can see right from wrong best. Just like the article Aunt Lan, Eiko saw that her father and Aunt Lan had "cinnabar hands", but she also came up with ingenious ways to win over the relationship between Uncle Dexian and Aunt Lan, and finally lifted the family crisis.
Closing the book, the last page reads: a pure and kind childhood is worth cherishing and tasting by each of us. Following in Eiko's footsteps, I accompanied her and recalled her colorful childhood.
Reading the old stories in the south of the city, I feel that two books are a key to open the door of wisdom; Books are also ships that can sail to the ocean of knowledge; A book is a bright light, which guides us forward ... A good book is a sun, shining and growing.
After learning the text "Dongyang Childhood Camel Team", I read Grandma Lin's "Old Things in the South of the City" on the recommendation of my mother. This book seems to have a magical power, which deeply attracts and touches me. In the book, Lin's childhood life is rich and colorful, and it seeps into my heart like a trickle: the camel team in winter, the "crazy" Xiuzhen in Hui 'an Pavilion, the innocent girl by the well, the thief who gave up her personality because of the oppression of life, and the clever and beautiful aunt Lan with an evil smile; Ignore our "four-eyed dog" Uncle Dexian; Ma Song, who lived with "us" day and night, and her kind father, who eventually died of lung disease, established deep feelings with me. Reading, the protagonist Lin Ying quietly entered my heart. Eiko, a kind and naive little girl, presented herself vividly to me. When I read that Eiko was playing with a madman Xiuzhen, I was worried that Xiuzhen would hurt her like other lunatics. When Eiko learned that the little girl was Xiuzhen's daughter, she not only helped her mother and daughter reunite, but also gave them birthday gifts-a diamond watch and her mother's gold bracelet as travel expenses. When I read this, my eyes filled with tears. I was deeply surprised that a six-year-old child actually knew friendship and love, which only showed that she had a pure and noble heart. I applaud eiko. In fact, "Eiko" can be seen everywhere in life, but I often despise it because of these little things. Sincere children's voice on the roadside: "Mom, give me a dollar and I will give it to that disabled uncle"; There is a long queue in front of the school donation box, although the hand is tightly holding the change of a dime; The cute little figure in the square who picked up the garbage and ran to the trash can ... the scene and piles are insignificant, but they show the true feelings of our children. Like Eiko's childhood, I am very moved and unforgettable. I only feel deeply and savor carefully, but I can't decorate it with gorgeous language. I only indulge in the simplicity, affection and friendship of my childhood. ...
Eiko's childhood is carefree, but it is also really happy. Can our childhood be like her? Looking back on our childhood and thinking of the stupid things we did, we may be annoyed or giggled, but this is the most representative symbol of childhood and a landscape that can never be erased. She used her childhood story to evoke our yearning for childhood; The little things that make us laugh and cry, the bright smiles that we almost forgot, the ups and downs of our wonderful childhood and the true feelings are slowly flowing in our hearts.
Everyone has a different childhood, different wonderful, only one childhood. If you miss it, you will never find it again, and then disappear silently in time. Time flies ... After reading this book, the remnants of the old house and the branches and leaves on the walls are deeply imprinted in my mind. When I close the book, I want to shout: "Let the actual childhood pass, and let the childhood of the soul last forever.
Reflections on Reading Old Events in the South of the City (III). Old Things in the South of the City is a classic autobiographical novel by the famous writer Ms. Lin. It tells the childhood story of Eiko, the little hero who lived in the quadrangle in the south of Beijing in the 1920s, and shows us the old Beijing in the eyes of a child. This book is a collection of novels, including five short stories: Hui An Ting, Let's Go to the Beach, Aunt Lan, Rolling on a Donkey, Dad's Flowers Falling, I am no longer a child, etc.
Among them, Hui An Ting tells the story that Xiu Zhen, a madman in Hui An Ting, and Eiko's friend and girl are mother and daughter, and they finally know each other, but in order to find Xiao Gui Zi's biological father, both mother and daughter died tragically under the train wheel. Let's go to the seaside describes a thief hiding in the grass. The thief had no choice but to steal for the sake of his younger brother's education, and was finally caught, which also showed us the embarrassment forced by livelihood and the helplessness of the poor. Aunt Lan wrote a love story between a young man and a young woman, which Eiko witnessed when she was a child. Rolling on a Donkey is about the unfortunate experience of Eiko's maid. "My father's flowers have fallen, I am no longer a child" is about the death of Eiko's father. As a sister, Eiko began to understand the responsibility on her shoulders.
In the book Old Events in the South of the City, the person who impressed me the most was Xiuzhen, a "madman". She tried hard to find her children and never gave up. Even if others think she is crazy, she doesn't agree. She persisted in her belief and asked everyone, "Have you seen our little Cassia? . How many clothes did Xiuzhen make for her little cassia! They are all sewn by hand day and night. The dense needle and thread contains a deep maternal love, and blood is thicker than water. No one wants to associate with her because of her abnormal behavior. But in Eiko's view, crazy Xiuzhen is a lovely and poor person, and it is very interesting to be with Xiuzhen, so they become good friends, and Eiko also helps her find her daughter.
Concealed reflection, when we are still immersed in deep affection, who can appreciate the hard work of our parents? In daily life, we don't ask our parents for this or that, and parents will go on a hunger strike or something if they don't buy it. Therefore, it is often that we buy this and that, without considering the feelings of our parents at all, and ignoring the hardships of earning hard-earned money for us. Sometimes, we hate the strictness of our parents. However, we didn't expect that our parents pinned their unfinished dreams on us in this way, and they also wanted us to have a promising future and find a good job when we grow up. In the article, Xiaoguizi doesn't have a happy family and life like ours. She had to rely on her own street performances to survive. Growing up, she didn't enjoy the care of her mother, the care of her father and the kindness of her grandparents, but she was confident, strong and brave, and overcame all difficulties, because she believed that her mother must be anxious to find her, and because of this belief, she would be strong and live! Finally, mother and daughter are reunited!
This story makes me understand: our parents have done a lot for us, but we have endless demands, so we should cherish the superior life now, study hard, repay those who have helped us, and be grateful!
