Chapter 2131: The Little Match Girl!
Hehe, you didn't do anything, why don't you sleep yet? ”
When Ye Xiuwen saw his daughter coming over, all his worries were gone.
"Dad, I want to sleep with you tonight."
Ye Fan squeezed in from the crack in the door, holding a plush toy of a long-legged bear in his arms.
"Hehe, come here!"
Ye Xiuwen laughed and called Ye Fan over.
Ye Fan was very happy, ran over and jumped on Ye Xiuwen's bed, and got into the bed.
"Giggles, I've been thinking about it for a long time to be able to sleep with my dad." Ye Fan smiled beautifully.
"yes, Dad is too busy. When I have time, I will definitely accompany you more. Ye Xiuwen was a little indebted.
It can be said that Ye Xiuwen never dreamed that Ye Fan would grow so fast. A little girl who is more than a year old has grown into a nine-year-old girl. It's like Ye Xiuwen hasn't seen his daughter for nine years.
He felt guilty in his heart, and he wanted to spend more time with his daughter. But he had more important things to do, which was to annihilate the Hydra.
Everything in the past has been related to Hydra. And if you leave it alone, I don't know how many people will be ruined and their wives separated because of this.
What's more, Hugo's walk is precisely related to Hydra.
So in this matter, Ye Xiuwen must not just let it go, he can only be wronged first and wronged Ye Fan.
Of course, he won't ignore Ye Fan, at least tonight, he has to meet his daughter's little request.
But Ye Xiuwen stroked Ye Fan's hair, and Ye Fan also closed his eyes. But I didn't want Ye Fan, who was already asleep, to suddenly open his eyes and giggle.
"What? Aren't you sleepy? Ye Xiuwen asked kindly stroking Ye Fan's hair.
"Daddy, can you tell me a story? I want to hear you tell me a story. Ye Fan said coquettishly.
"Story,....... Hehe! .......”
Ye Xiuwen scratched his forehead with the index finger of his left hand, if he wanted to tell this story, he could tell it for three days and three nights. But to tell a story to your daughter, you need to be selective.
And being a father for the first time, I don't have much experience, so after thinking about it, I said, "So, Dad will tell you a story about Snow White, right?" ”
"Huh? Is that the same Snow White who was abused and ravaged by her stepmother? Father? You don't want to find me a stepmother, do you? Ye Fan said with a strange expression.
"What are you talking about, this kid?"
Ye Xiuwen said angrily, but obviously his daughter had heard this story. So Ye Xiuwen thought for a while and said, "Then how about I tell you the story of a little girl who sells matches?" ”
"Is that the little girl who froze herself to death while holding a bunch of matches?" Ye Fan asked rhetorically.
Ye Xiuwen thought to himself, his daughter must have heard this story, and he was about to change the story again, but he didn't want Ye Fan's little chatter to open up again: "Dad, I think the little girl who sells matches is not frozen to death, but stupid." ”
“·························”
Ye Xiuwen was speechless, and said in his heart: How can you think so about this child? Isn't it the same version that we heard?
Thinking of this, Ye Xiuwen motioned for Ye Fan to stop, and then said: "Daughter, I'll tell you the story of the little match girl again, listen carefully,......"
Ye Xiuwen didn't believe it, thinking that his daughter must have read the wrong version of the little girl who sold matches.
So he retold the story to his daughter about the tragic fate of a little girl who sold matches on Christmas Eve.
Say about a little girl who didn't eat for a day because she didn't sell a match on Christmas Eve. She was cold and hungry, she polished the first match, and saw the fragrant roast goose; She polished the second match and saw the beautiful Christmas tree; She polished the third match, saw her grandmother who had been absent for a long time, and she wanted her grandmother to stay with her, so she polished a whole match. But when the match goes out, all this is gone, and this is how the little girl died tragically on Christmas Eve, and no one knows what she saw in the last moments of her life.
"Dad, something is wrong here, since no one saw the beautiful sight of the little girl at the end, then how does the author know? Isn't he making it up? Ye Fan asked rhetorically.
“······························”
Ye Xiuwen was speechless, and said in his heart, what did he learn as a child?
But as a father, he naturally has to set things right, and he can't let his daughter go further and further down the wrong path.
So Ye Xiuwen sorted out his thoughts and said, "Daughter, in fact, this story has a background.
In October 1845, Andersen visited Italy again. As Christmas approached, Glesston's friends repeatedly invited Andersen to spend Christmas there.
Andersen happily got into the carriage to Glouston. In Glouston, he saw a banner reading "Welcome to Mr. Hans Christian Andersen" on the side of the road, and the bookstore was filled with fairy tales he had written. Hans Christian Andersen's carriage slowly moves through the streets of Gloston, and he wants to get a taste of the Christmas atmosphere in the city.
However, at the end of the bustling street, he saw a middle-aged woman with a basket on her arm and a thin baby on her back, begging weakly. Not far away, a little girl, only about five years old, was selling matches, and her hands were frozen. However, there were not many people passing by, and the blonde girl did not sell a single match.
So when Hans Christian Andersen went back, he wrote "The Little Match Girl", and this time you understand, right? Creation of such things generally has a prototype.
The story "The Little Match Girl" depicts the intertwining of the reality of cold cheese at the time with the wonderful fantasies of the girl. The article uses contrasting artistic techniques to tell the story of a little match girl who freezes to death on the street on New Year's Eve, exposing the darkness of capitalist society. The contrast between light and dark, warmth and brutality, leads the whole work into a heartbreaking and miserable situation.
Moreover, in order to better reflect the tragic fate of the little girl, this fairy tale is very meaningful for the author to arrange the story to unfold at a specific time such as Chinese New Year's Eve.
Chinese New Year's Eve is a time for families to gather together and have fun; And the poor little girl. On this cold and dark night, the lonely man wandered the streets selling matches, and finally froze to death on the streets.
"It's cold, it's snowing, it's getting dark, it's the last day of the year - Chinese New Year's Eve." Floating everywhere in the streets
Come to the rich house of the smell of barbecue. The rich family's Christmas tree is so big and beautiful, and there are many beautiful colorful pictures hanging on it. However, on such an unforgettable night, the little girl was bareheaded and barefoot selling matches on the street. At this time, the atmosphere is in stark contrast to the age, actions, and situation of the little girl, highlighting the darkness of capitalist society and the tragic fate of the little girl.
And in the article, the author is very good at using the contrast of the environment to set off the miserable atmosphere. On one side, "the smell of roast duck wafted through the street with lights shining through every window", and on the other hand, "the little girl's house only had a roof, and the cracked walls could leak out of the wind, and the house was as cold as the street." ”
At the same time, in a social environment where there is a huge disparity between the rich and the poor, the young master's carriage is rampaging on the street, and the little girl accidentally loses one of the big slippers her mother wears in order to avoid the rushing carriage. This shows that in the society at that time, the happiness and happiness of the rich were based on the suffering of the poor. How unfair such a society is to the poor. The double contrast between the natural environment and the social environment shows how great the disparity between the rich and the poor was in society at that time.
In terms of the structure of the article, the author is even more ingenious, which is mainly reflected in the contrast between the good happiness of the New Year and the little girl freezing to death on the street. In the general world, the New Year is a joyful and peaceful one, and life is a happy one. But who would have thought that a beautiful little girl would freeze to death on the street? This strong contrast makes everyone shudder. The second is the contrast between the warm sunlight and the cold corpse of the little girl, why can't the warm sunlight shine on the little girl's body? This is exactly the true portrayal of "Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road". The tragic end of the little girl is a microcosm of the thousands of poor children at that time.
Therefore, the author contrasts the illusion seen by describing the little girl who struck the match five times with the cold reality.
In the first vision, the little girl saw the big stove because she was cold in reality, indicating that she was hungry and cold. The second time, the little girl saw the roast goose coming towards her because she was hungry in reality, indicating that she craved good food. The third time, the little girl saw the Christmas gift because she was not happy, indicating that she longed for happiness. The fourth time, the fifth time she saw her grandmother and flew away with her because she had no one to caress her, saying that she longed to be caressed.
Through this auspicious comparative analysis, it is not difficult to see that the little girl has nothing, so she can only light matches again and again, and look for them in the illusion again and again. Her good wishes and happy visions were only in her illusions. Other than that, she had nothing but cold, hunger, and pain. Through this contrast between imagination and reality, the author reveals the tragic fate of the little girl and indicts the social system that creates inequality between the rich and the poor.
So child, the little match girl is very well written, and the little girl is definitely not stupid! ......”
Ye Xiuwen finally stated, saying that his sweat has come down, and if his daughter doesn't understand anymore, then he, as a father, may be powerless! ......
