Chapter Eighty-Eight: New Year's Day Gala (Part II)
Chapter 88 New Year's Day Gala (II)
The north wind blows
Snowflakes that float
Snowflakes are fluttering
year has come
Dad went out to hide in the tent
The whole seven days
Thirty that night has not been returned
The aunt gave Yu Jiaozi noodles
I look forward to my dad coming home for the New Year
I made a few bucks selling tofu
On the set, I weighed back two catties of noodles
I'm afraid that the proprietor will see it
I carried it in my arms for the first four or five days
I made a few bucks selling tofu
Daddy called back two catties of noodles
Take it home and make dumplings
Have a happy New Year
Alas, it's been a New Year
Other people's daughters have flowers to wear
Your father and I can't buy it with little money
Pulled on the two-foot red head rope
I'll tie it up for my Xi'er
Alas, tie it up
Other people's daughters have flowers to wear
My dad didn't have much money to buy
Pulled on the two-foot red head rope
Tie it up for me
Oops, prick, prick
The door god rides a red horse
Sticked to the door to guard the house
The door god carries a big knife
Big ghosts and little ghosts can't get in
Oh, you can't get in
This is the beginning of the story of "The White-Haired Girl", Yang Bailao used the money from the sale of tofu to buy a red head rope for Xi'er, and Xi'er sang and danced happily. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The content of the drama is very close to life, after Yang Bailao came back from hiding the tent, Xi'er happily took the two catties of white noodles brought back by her father, and was pleasantly asked by her father to tie her red head rope, shyly coquettish with her father, and happily pasted the door god "so that Mu Renzhi, who wants to pay the account, can't come in", "pretending not to know" interrupted her father to talk about her marriage.
In short, Zhang Xiaomei, who was the leading actor for the first time, immediately made an innocent, simple, and life-loving rural girl appear on the stage through a few movements and singing.
As soon as Zhang Xiaomei appeared, Zhang Fengnian couldn't sit still, stood up and shouted: "My sister!" ”
The audience behind was immediately dissatisfied, and scolded: "Your sister! Sit it down for me! ”
Zhang Fengnian realized that he saw his sister performing, and he was too excited for a while to lose his temper, and quickly sat down.
The performance continued, when the bully landlord Huang Shiren appeared and asked Yang Bailao to take Xi'er to pay off the debt, the audience suddenly boiled, the audience scolded, Zhang Fengnian felt the same way, his sister was arrested by Zhang Liangde into Zhang's mansion because of the landlord's debt, and later caused a series of tragedies, and his own family was also ruined by Zhang Liangde's family.
After that, the bully landlord Huang Shiren forced the kind and honest tenant Yang Bailao to death, snatched his daughter Xi'er and raped her, and finally forced her to flee into the mountains.
At this time, a burst of hysterical rage suddenly erupted in the audience, "Down with the Kuomintang reactionaries!" Down with the landlord and the old wealth! ”
At this time, Zhang Fengnian cried very sadly, the misfortune of Xi'er played by his sister Zhang Xiaomei on the stage evoked his association of his sister being bullied by the landlord, he "clicked", loaded the gun, and aimed at the "Huang Shiren" on the stage, as long as he pulled the trigger, it would cause an unimaginable tragedy.
However, at the moment when the life of the actor playing Huang Shiren was hanging by a thread, the platoon commander found Zhang Fengnian who was holding a gun, took his gun in time, and shouted: "Are you crazy? ”
Zhang Fengnian only came to his senses at this time, but suddenly squatted on the ground and hugged his head and cried, the platoon commander did not scold him again, he quietly looked at this man who was crying so sadly, knowing that Zhang Fengnian has always been unable to shed tears, it seems that there are likely to be some sad past events in him.
Because the audience was in a mess, no one except the platoon commander knew what Zhang Fengnian did in the audience, and the platoon commander decided to hide what had just happened.
But Zhang Fengnian refused the platoon commander's kindness, he took the initiative to find the instructor and confessed to him what happened in the audience.
Zhang Cheng then remembered that when "The White-Haired Girl" was performed all over the country, something similar had happened, and later there was a regulation prohibiting the audience from carrying guns when "The White-Haired Girl" was performed.
Zhang Cheng had no choice but to copy this regulation in advance and distribute it to all ministries. As for Zhang Fengnian, in view of his outstanding performance and brave combat in peacetime, there was a reason for the incident at that time, and there was mercy, so he only gave him the punishment of being confined for three days.
Of course, these are all afterthoughts, so let's not mention them for the time being, and the show continues.
After that, Xi'er survived tenaciously with a strong will for revenge, and due to the lack of sunlight and salt, her hair turned white, and she was called "White-haired Fairy Gu" by the nearby villagers. The Workers' and Peasants' Red Army was liberated here, led the peasants to defeat Huang Shiren, and rescued Xi'er from the mountains.
Xi'er got a complete turnaround and started a new life, and finally Xi'er and Da Chun, the childhood sweetheart who participated in the Red Army, recognized each other, and the two happily combined together, and the whole play ushered in a happy ending.
Seeing this ending, the audience was finally satisfied, and immediately burst into extremely warm applause and continued to applaud loudly.
The whole play of "The White-Haired Girl" profoundly expresses the theme of "the reactionary class forces people into 'ghosts', and the workers' and peasants' Red Army turns 'ghosts' into people" through Xi'er's encounter, which truly reflects the contradiction between the poor peasants and the landlord class in the rural areas of the semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, and proves that only the people's revolution led by the Workers' and Peasants' Party can smash the feudal shackles and liberate Xi'er and the thousands of peasants who share the same fate with Xi'er.
Through clever contrasts, the Yang family is poor and desolate, and the Huang family celebrates Chinese New Year's Eve, and the contrast of the scene atmosphere reflects serious class antagonism; The contrast between the internal and external scenes reveals the sinful nature of the landlord class using the bones of the poor to build their own paradise.
Especially in the creation of characters, the characters in the play are very different, the ferocity of the Huang family's master and slave, Yang Bailao's simplicity and loyalty, the positive and negative are distinct, and the contrast is strong, forming a sharp dramatic conflict and highlighting the theme. When Mu Renzhi came on the stage, the singing section of "begging for rent and asking for accounts" and the singing section of Huang Shiren's "spending all day and drinking to say goodbye to the old year, and spending Chinese New Year's Eve with lanterns" showed the different identities and ugly souls of doglegs and bully landlords.
Through the tragic experiences of Yang Bailao and Xi'er's father and daughter, this play profoundly reveals the sharp contradictions between the landlords and peasants, angrily indicts the sins of the landlord class, and warmly praises the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Party and the Red Army.
After watching the performance, both the old soldiers and the captives who had just been transformed into new fighters strengthened their determination to follow the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and the local people also understood the Workers' and Peasants' Party's propositions through this play, and knew that the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army was the ranks of the common people and led the people on the road to liberation.
At the same time, the common people also profoundly realized that their poverty and misery had been inflicted on them by the Kuomintang reactionaries and the landlords and wealthy people, and thus they even more supported the Red Army and hated the Kuomintang reactionaries.
At the New Year's Day joint party, the drama "White-Haired Girl" was once again a great success, and finally the party came to a successful conclusion with the audience singing the "Song of the International Division of the Young Communist Party".
Many years later, many of the fighters who participated in the party were already in high positions. When asked what was the happiest thing about their revolutionary era, almost everyone talked about the New Year's Day gala.
Whenever the old comrades-in-arms get together, they always talk about this party with a happy face, and ridicule each other for their stupidity that they have never seen the world back then, especially Zhang Fengnian, who has become the commander of the division of the Republic, is collectively "besieged" by his comrades-in-arms, and they recall the years of passion together.
