Wang Zengqi's Prose Chapter 1 Maybe many people don't know Wang Zengqi, and maybe many people think that it is rare to see a great prose writer in modern China.
This is a misunderstanding and a fallacy.
I bought "Wang Zengqi's Prose" by chance in a market in 2001. I remember it was a pirated copy.
At that time, little was known about Mr. Wang (the consequences of traditional education), except that Mr. Wang should be considered a famous writer.
In my spare time, I started reading "Wang Zengqi's Prose" in a lazy mood.
Unexpectedly, I couldn't put it down after reading it.
Reading "Wang Zengqi's Prose" is like listening to an old man who experienced the Anti-Japanese War and the Liberation War telling us about the little things in life. And while listening, these little things in life seem to be an invisible humanistic and harmonious story.
History education.
In "Wang Zengqi's Prose", we see the demeanor of the former professors of Southwest Associated University, and we read people's judgments on politics and culture at that time. We are like reading the story of an old man in history.
In "Wang Zengqi's Prose", we read the unyielding pride of Chinese literati and see the diligent pursuit of ideas and scholarship by Chinese scholars in a difficult environment...
In a humanistic style, Mr. Wang tells us about the past and conveys to us various spirits and ideas that can be learned.
Reading "Wang Zengqi's Prose" is like reading history, and it is even more like learning how to behave in the world from many sages and living thoughtful elders!
After reading Mr. Wang’s book, I believe everyone can understand that in fact, China does not lack cultural masters and prose masters, we just lack opportunities for learning and cognition.
After reading this book, it might be a joke to say that China has no prose writers!
Wang Zengqi’s book, if you don’t read it, you will regret it; if you read it, you will not regret it!
Wang Zengqi's Prose Part 2 The summer vacation has begun, and the teacher recommended several books to me. "Wang Buqi Reader" I liked it as soon as I heard its name.
This book is about interesting things that happened in the big garden of his home when he was a child, such as catching grasshoppers, dragonflies, butterflies, and various insects. Mr. Wang Buqi always liked to put them in small bottles.
, open the lid and let these little things fend for themselves.
In daily life, we must also be inseparable from the five flavors: sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. These are the condiments that people add when cooking. A veritable "gourmet" like Mr. Wang Buqi will know all about it.
The knowledge of eating is explained in detail, which will make your mouth water. However, he regretted one dish for more than sixty years.
I also had a dream when I was a child, that is, to be a gourmet, but after my mother’s persuasion, I gave up. Besides the dishes cooked by my mother, I like to eat Huizhou’s hairy tofu the most!
It looks unappealing, but after deep-frying, it looks like a piece of golden barley, and it's so fragrant!
There is a legend about this delicious tofu!
A long time ago, adults in a certain state loved to eat tofu made by an old man.
However, a sudden cold made the old man bedridden.
The old man had been ill for several days. He put the prepared tofu in a carton. After a few days, the old man recovered. He found that the tofu had grown hair. The old man was reluctant to throw it away, so he fried it in a pan.
, after tasting it, it tastes better than fresh tofu.
So the old man named the hairy tofu "hairy tofu", passed it on to his descendants and passed away.
I love all delicious food, but my favorite is "hairy tofu".
Wang Zengqi's Prose Part 3 The most impressive thing about Mr. Wang Zengqi's works is his language and style.
His writing is simple and concise, but it does not make people feel boring. Instead, it makes people feel kind and emotional. It is subtle and meaningful, minimalist but free and poetic.
When he writes about people, you can feel the loveliness of every ordinary person; when he writes about scenery, you can feel his love for every inch of mountains and rivers; when he writes about food, you seem to be able to feel the taste on the tip of your tongue.
hapiness.
What he writes about is the life he is familiar with - the small town of Gaoyou in the old era, the southwest border town of Kunming, old teachers and friends in culture, teachers and students of Southwest Associated University, etc. What he describes are ordinary things in daily life -
Shandandan, wolfberry, sophora japonica, chestnut, potato, etc.
But even these ordinary things have become lively, lovely and vivid in his writing.
There is a description in "My Hometown": "These big ships often have a rudder house, where the family members of the ship owner live. Most of the ship owner's wives are young. While steering the rudder, they open their arms to breastfeed their children, with a leisurely attitude. Most of the rudder towers are stretched out
A bamboo pole was put out to dry clothes and pants, and the wind crackled. "The seemingly straightforward white description constitutes a very dynamic picture of scenery, customs and customs, which is lifelike.
As Wang Zengqi said: What he pursues is not profundity, but harmony.
The simple language is like homely speaking, which makes people very relaxed when reading it.
In this noisy city, immersing yourself in the leisurely scenes he depicts is like sipping a new cup of tea on a sunny afternoon and listening to an old friend slowly reminisce about the past, which is relaxing.
In our busy and high-pressure life, we need this kind of comfort, a kind of rest from the cultural level.
Stop occasionally and appreciate the subtle beauty of this world.
