Rural Yangge Team

For the first time at the cultural station, 40 girls from the town were organized to teach cross steps and an umbrella head, which was led by an umbrella. I called a few strong guys, played drums, beat gongs, I led to the various units, entered the compound, set up a formation in the courtyard, twisted up, in the middle of the courtyard, there was a table, on which were filled with candy, melon seeds, peanuts. When I finished twisting, I packed the food in a bag and divided it equally among everyone. I walked five miles farther, went to a construction site to twist Yangge, and the beauties were tired and bitter, but my heart was sweet! In 1980, it was the last Yangge twisting in the countryside, and since then, the custom of twisting Yangge during the Chinese New Year has ended in my hands!

With the reform and opening up, every household has been busy for their own homes, and the collective joy and collective customs have become the joy of their own family and the customs of their own family.

I poured ink into the basin, from morning to night, for a whole week, the brush couplet, free writing, my hands were numb! On the night of the thirtieth day, there was no one coming, the empty cave, I was lonely, there was black ink in both hands, there was red paper, no, it was the New Year's meal, no, it was the relatives of the New Year! I was sad for a while! I wanted to cry, but there was no person, it was no fun to cry! Who to cry to!

Suddenly, I thought that since I had written, I would write enough words at once! I searched through the family and found all the fonts I could find, such as official script, seal script, regular script, European style, willow script, Yan style, Zhao style, small Kai, and the thirteen lines of the jade version!

One day I walked to the Chinese medicine store in the town, and saw that the name of the medicine on the medicine box was written in the method of writing with a brush in European style, that beauty, that was like the ancients talking to me, and European style was written like this! I immediately found the owner of the shop and asked him for advice, he turned out to be a blind man! He spread a piece of paper on the ground, touched the edge of the paper with my hand, I dipped the ink of the brush for him, handed it to him with both hands, and saw him write two words, [Fu Shou] , Dou Da characters, as if the book wind from thousands of years ago blew on my face, blowing me back to ancient times, at that moment, my soul did not know where!

He's my calligraphy master! He's an old Chinese medicine doctor, he's a blind man!

I was terrified! The calligraphy master I met saw with my own eyes that calligraphy was originally written like this! There is no need to see the words, calligraphy is in the master's heart! There is no need to sell words for a living, calligraphy is the name of the medicine in the practical Chinese medicine box! There is no need to be a member of the Chinese Calligraphy Association, the words will always be engraved in my heart!

The only thing I want to do is not forget to write carefully in my life, and pursue the art of calligraphy for thousands of years.
