Mr. Blue Robe: The Song of the Fist
The last two classes in the morning are composition. After Mr. Wang wrote the title of "The First Snow" on the blackboard, he briefly prompted a few words and walked out the door.
I was working on the draft when I saw an old man walk into the classroom door, with a blanket on his shoulders and a wrinkled face. In the classroom, I watched the boys and girls with their heads bowed and writing. I saw that his stubborn demeanor was a little ridiculous, whose parents are here? He looked at him for a long time, but he didn't see the person he was looking for, so he shouted, "Fangfang!"
Tian Fang raised his head suddenly, hurriedly put pen to paper, looked panicked, left his seat, walked to the front from the aisle, and led the old man out of the classroom.
The old man was probably her father, and I guess judging from the tone in which he called her by her name, the old peasants in the village called their own children with this kind of demeanor, and no matter the occasion, it was as if they were calling their sons and daughters in their own houses. It is not unusual for him to come to her, the classmates in the class have gathered in this town from all directions, all of them have stayed, and they have not returned home for a year and a half, and there are often parents of this and that who come to the school. A few have an accident at home, and the father or mother is seriously ill and needs to go back to see them, and most of them give clothes and money to their children to take the opportunity to see their lovely son or daughter.
After Tian Fang went out with her father, my heart was uneasy. Her father is looking for her, what do I have to say? The moment she looked up at her father, there was a look of horror in her eyes, which changed to a look of hatred, and everything vanished. Her father, even if he had come suddenly, shouldn't have been so frightened, should he? I couldn't guess why, but I was a little anxious and worried.
I couldn't continue to paint the magnificent scenery of the first snowfall since the beginning of winter, and the more I thought about it, the more anxious I became. I can't tell if people have a premonitive psychological reaction to a possible disaster, but anyway, my heart is too frizzy to write in the small compartment of the text.
I picked up the teacup, pretended to go to the water room to fetch water, and walked out of the classroom, there was no shadow of Tian Fang and her father on the corridor, and the sound of this and that instructor lecturing came from the rows of classrooms. She probably led my father to the dormitory, I fetched water in the water room, walked back slowly, and suddenly saw Liu Dagen, the school worker who was ringing the bell, running over and saying to me, "Tian Fang from your class has taken it away!"
"Who?" I was taken aback.
"A bunch of people!" said Liu Dagen, "I came from the street and met a bunch of people pulling her into the carriage!"
"Where?" said a fire welled up in my heart.
"Shanmen Town Nantou ......"
I shook the glass of water, pulled my feet and ran. I was blinded, I couldn't figure out what was going on, who was the person who called her, why did she go with him? I just thought she couldn't be dragged away, how could there be such a thing? I ran out of the school.
There seemed to be people talking about something on the street, and I ran straight to the south end of the town, and sure enough, I saw a crowd of people around and talking. I ran to the front, there were seven or eight big men standing on the cart, twisting Tian Fang, Tian Fang was struggling, and fell on the car gang, and several people took advantage of the situation to suppress her. I shouted: "Don't rob people!" Tian Fang turned his head sharply and cried: "Hurry up, be cautious......" The person who was driving the car felt that it was not too late, and shook the whip with a bang, and the horse ran with the cart.
I ran after the wagon. The carriage did not go very fast, I chased in front of the horse, facing the galloping horse, there was nothing I could do, I had never touched an animal since I was a child, let alone a car, and I did not know how to stop the galloping carriage. The man who was driving the car, with a swing of his long whip, there was a loud whip above my head, and the whip sheath was whipped on the left side of my face, and it hurt hotly. In the moment I was dazed, the carriage ran past with a thud.
I touched my face, and continued to chase, and in my anger and urgency, I picked up a half-rotten brick from the ground, and a little farther away from the carriage, ran past the galloping horse, turned around, and looked at the head of the red horse, and threw out the brick with all my might, and struck the bridge of the horse's nose at once, and the red horse screamed, and the front hooves leaped into the air, and the two horses with their sheaths in front of them stood still. The driver smashed the horse's ass with a whip, and the red horse shook his head and tail, suppressed his hooves and kicked wildly, and the carriage stopped. I immediately threw myself into the carriage and was pushed out of it by a man. The driver jumped out of the car and threw his fist at me angrily. I had forgotten the danger and being alone, and rushed towards him. It was a middle-aged man, with great strength but clumsiness, and after I dodged his heavy punch, I smashed it in the face, about hitting him in the eye, and he immediately dropped the whip, covered his eyes with both hands, and squatted on the ground. It was the first time in my life that I had beaten someone, and I really tasted a little bit of the joy of beating my opponent.
"Hit this wild man!"
Hearing a roar, three or four men jumped out of the car and surrounded me from all sides. I didn't know what to do, but I was beaten on my head and waist, and I was so beaten that I was suddenly knocked to the ground by shouting at the car: "Tian Fang! Run!"
"Hit this wild man!"
I was knocked to the ground, someone was sitting on my back, and I couldn't get up. Who are they scolding? Wild man? Who is it? Are you beating me as Tian Fang's wild man?
There was a shout in the streets, a chaotic sound of footsteps. The man sitting on my back jumped away, and I got up to see that the male and female classmates of the second crash course had arrived and were fighting in the streets around the cart. The balance of power changed absolutely all of a sudden, and the men were surrounded by the students, and they were crawling and rolling.
I ran to the carriage and saw that several female classmates had untied Tian Fang's bound hands and helped her walk down from the carriage. When I saw her tear-stained cheeks, I suddenly felt so sad that I burst into tears, and without saying a word, I fell to the ground and fell unconscious......
My hand was held tightly by a gentle hand, and I was reluctant to let go of that hand and leave. When I opened my eyes, it was Tian Fang holding my hand, and there was a group of male and female classmates sitting around, she was holding my hand in front of everyone, and she didn't seem to be embarrassed, I also felt that this was nothing, so I should hold it like this.
I vaguely remember that I was awakened in the infirmary in Shanmen Town. After the doctor bandaged me, he gave me a few pills, which I said was hypnotic, and I slept until late in the evening.
I felt thirsty, opened my mouth, and without speaking, she realized, and fed me water in my mouth with a porcelain spoon. I saw her scoop up a spoonful of water from the enamel jar that held it, blow it cool with her mouth, and feed it exactly to my mouth. I lay still, closed my eyes, listened to the sizzling blow, and waited for the spoon that came close to my lips. I wanted to hug her, bury my head in her chest, and cry with her.
"Do you know? The county public security bureau arrested three of them!" Liu Jianguo, the squad leader, said, "We are in the second shift quickly, and this time we are playing majestic." It's too unbelievable! It's liberated, and you dare to rob people!"
I was so happy that I had caught the three of them. I sat up, aching and with a quilt behind me.
"Amazing, amazing!" said the captain of the basketball team, "It's amazing that our Mr. Blue Robe can fight......!
Everyone looked at me and laughed. I laughed too. Tian Fang pursed her lips, looked at me and smiled, and said, "What did he beat!
I was beaten, my head was bleeding, my nose was bruised and my face was swollen, but I also punched and smashed a brick. How accurate my brick was struck! It hit the bridge of the horse's nose and stopped the galloping carriage. How majestic and accurate my punch was, it smashed the carriage handlebars to the ground, covered my eyes with both hands, and couldn't pick up the whip. I've never fought with anyone in my life, I've never experienced what it's like to beat someone, and now I realize that there is fun in beating someone, especially when you hit the opponent's body with your fist out of a kind of righteous indignation to defend the weak (who is also your best classmate), it will produce an incomparable taste of pleasure. I relived for a long time the moment when the punch hit the barbar, and forgot how many times the revenge I received.
"How dare they rob people in broad daylight?" I asked, "Tian Fang, what the hell is going on?"
"That's a group of barbarians from her mother-in-law's house, who want to rob Tian Fang to go back to the church and get married!" a female classmate said on her behalf, "Sensei asked, which made Tian Fang sad again." β
I couldn't help but ask, "Who is that old man who came to you in the classroom, and why did you go with him?"
"That's my dad. Tian Fang said, "My father gave me to someone when I was 10 years old and sold eight stones of wheat. I didn't want to do this now, and he said that I should take out eight stones of wheat and return it to others. I said that after I worked, I would pay it back year by year, and pay it all off. My dad couldn't get through this hurdle first, and he joined up with others to give me to them! Not only did he have a food problem, but he also said that I was disgraced and moral, and that he had lost his face......
I roughly understood the reason, and I didn't want to ask any more questions, for fear of making her sad. Such a marital situation, in our crash second class, is not only Tian Fang's pain alone, but many boys and girls have similar experiences. Several students in the class have already dissolved their engagements, and some are brewing, and two crash courses are forming a wave of divorce and dissolution.
"Hit this wild man!"
The man who jumped out of the carriage ran towards me with a shout, beating me like a wild man, and now that he thought about it, he didn't seem to feel embarrassed. At that time, Tian Fang was tied to the car, I don't know if I heard this vicious sentence?
Tian Fang ...... "I wanted to comfort her a few words, but I didn't know what to say, but when it came to my mouth, I talked about other things, "Is our play still rehearsal?"
"Today...... Stopped. Tian Fang said, "If you can't recover from your injuries by then, it will be difficult to perform." Now I want to change who will play it, it's too late!"
"How are you doing first?" I was worried that her mental stimulation was too heavy, and she would be able to go on stage, "Can you go on stage?"
"I can. She said, "I don't take them seriously!
"I can too!" I said, "you can continue to rehearse for everyone!
The New Year's Day party lasted all night, and in the middle of the night, the cafeteria prepared a sumptuous New Year's dinner for all teachers and students. "The White-Haired Girl" is the finale, scheduled as the last show, and it is too late to put on makeup after eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. I sat in the auditorium and watched the entertainment programs of each class. Tian Fang has another solo, and I'm looking forward to it.
Finally it was her turn, and she stood on the stage. Wear a red jacket, calm and generous. A few days ago, the sensational fight incident caused by her made her a figure in the attention of the whole school. Now, she stood on the stage, attracting the attention of all the teachers and students of the school, and for some reason, the chaotic auditorium fell silent. She began to singβ
Old Society
It's like a black clattering dry well
Under the well
Pressing on our people
Women are at the bottom
You can't see the sun, you can't see the sky
Countless days, months, and years
The endless cattle and horses suffer inexhaustibly
Who's going to rescue us
The venue was very quiet, so quiet that people felt depressed, so depressed that people wanted to shout, want to scream, want to jump up and shout wildly! My tears flowed. I heard someone sobbing. I don't know which class the female classmates began to sing with Tian Fang in the audience, and soon spread to all corners, and the boys also sang, and the entire auditorium echoed with this song "Turn Over Song"-
Communist Party, Mao**
He led the whole of China to the light
Since then, the iron chains have been broken
Women become free people
β¦β¦
I raised my head and opened my mouth and sang passionately, tears streaming from my cheeks into the corners of my mouth, salty and astringent. I'm a gentleman. I'm the little monk! I'm an oppressed woman! I'm a puppet who has been imprisoned by my father and has no emotions or desires! I'm ...... Today it has become...... Free people...... Finish!
