-Reading Cao Wenxuan's Fine Rice

Under the blue sky, there are endless reeds. The tall and slender reeds stood neatly, like rows of soldiers standing upright with their heads held high. A gust of sea breeze blew, and the white reed flowers drifted around with the wind, drifting to the river, to Yau Ma Tei and to Daoxiangdu.

Through the reeds, we can see a golden wheat field, and a few short houses are faintly visible. Fine rice, red lotus root and plum grain are waving to readers. Unconsciously, I have stepped into the situation of "Fine Rice" designed by Cao Wenxuan-

The quiet villages, flowing rivers, spinning windmills, passenger ships coming and going, snow-white reeds, and curling kitchen smoke are full of poetry and painting, creating the exquisiteness and aura of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River. In particular, the clean and bright white fence is particularly conspicuous, which always touches the hero's heart, arouses memories of many past events, and deeply shocks readers to the structural power of Cao Wenxuan's exquisite novel art.

In "Simi", the description of "White Fence" appears about six or seven times. I think it is no accident that such a seemingly unremarkable and unremarkable scene is repeated so many times in Cao Wenxuan's works.

Once, Mei Wen just settled in Ximi's house: "Ximi is a little embarrassed, turn around. At this time, he saw the fence-I don't know when it was painted white. ..... Fine rice think this white fence is very beautiful. It makes everything bright, the vegetables in the garden look greener, and the colorful flowers under the fence look bluer. An unknown fence, painted with white paint twice by plum blossom, seems to have suddenly come to life, so it is noticed. Ximi stood there motionless, and there was only this white fence in her eyes. " The appearance of the "fence" makes naughty fine rice shine, and even the sky and flowers bloom with dazzling colors. As a result, the light and color of the fence are flowing with aesthetic brilliance in the eyes of fine rice. Why did the fence that had existed for a long time, until the appearance of plum grain, make Ximi feel like waking up suddenly? Isn't there some metaphor besides the refreshing of color? This is the spiritual shock that Mei Wen, a girl from the heaven of beauty, has brought to a life teenager who has been sleeping.

Once appeared on the moonlit night when Mei Wen received a letter from her parents who had missed her for a long time: "Mei Wen opened the door and walked out of the house. The moonlight is clear, and the white fence looks longer than during the day, but there are countless roots. She can even see that the morning glory climbing the fence is purple, like a small horn. " This is a warm and quiet still night picture. In fact, Mei Wen is a little girl at best. After her family suffered an accident, she came to the countryside with a large number of people from Suzhou City. In the face of the "changes" caused by the times, she did not have the decadence and depression we imagined, but came to Daoxiangdu with calmness and innocence. One day, when I received a letter from my parents unexpectedly, her face was full of excitement and joy-at this time, the fence she personally refreshed was whiter and longer than during the day, and the purple morning glory "blew" the trumpet for her. At the moment, the naive and wild boy she likes has fallen asleep. People's thoughts are longer than the earth, and there is an indescribable softness and comfort in Mei Wen's heart ... < P > It once appeared in a special Spring Festival. Due to unexpected changes, Xiaomi and Mei Wen were left alone at home for the New Year: "After dinner, they began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, or one on the white fence, one handed them over and one took them. The action was very fast, and the dishes and chopsticks were transported back to the kitchen in a blink of an eye." One is on the white fence side, the other is on the white fence side, and the white fence is placed among them, which seems to be an obstacle to them, but it seems not to be an obstacle. Only beside the white fence, in the eyes of Mei Wen, will the "wild heart of a child" converge. At this time, we have felt that the unruly son of the countryside has been "soothed" by beauty and entered a new growth process.

The last time, it appeared at the end when Ximi finally came home with difficulty, but Mei Wen had left: "When his eyes fell, he saw the white fence. He concluded that she brushed it carefully before she left, because it looked cleaner and brighter than ever. When the tears gushed out, his eyes were pure white ... "An ignorant young rice grew up in pure white, and Mei Wen had left his side at the moment.

this cycle will make us feel fluttering and dizzy. This structure coincides with mysticism philosophy: everything in the world is just a reincarnation. From the first sight of Meiwen in Ximi, I saw the white fence, and finally Meiwen returned to the city to leave, leaving the clean and bright white fence. The person is still the same person, and the fence is still the fence. During this period, nothing seems to have changed, leaving no trace. The river flows quietly, the earth is covered with sunset, and the gardenia is lightly open, but it has already aroused a lot of ripples in the heart of Xiaomi-
