"Loess literature?"

This is a new term, Jian Xing has never heard of it, after he chewed this word in his mouth, the more he read it, the more flavorful it became, and then he asked: "Teacher Jiang, what is loess literature, why haven't I heard it?" ”

Jiang Yulou said cheekily: "Loess literature is a name I gave myself, which is a creative theme and technique that uses realism to describe the social, historical, cultural, and changes of the times in the countryside on the loess and pursue epic character. ”

The more Jian Xing listened, the brighter his eyes became, and he said loudly: "The theme of this literature is good, shouldn't our writers in the land of Guanzhong write stories about our land and show the style and style of the peasants on this land!" ”

He shook Jiang Yulou's hand vigorously and said excitedly: "Teacher Jiang, loess literature is good!" As long as you can follow this vein to create, you will definitely be a founding figure in the future! ”

Founding a sect?

The title was too big for him to deserve.

So, Jiang Yulou hurriedly said modestly: "Actually, this genre has existed for a long time, I just have the intention to carry it forward." ”

Officially recognized, the founder of loess literature should be Liu Qing and Liu Lao, and then Lu Yao, Chen Zhongshi and others inherited, broke through and carried forward.

The two talked about literature in this small study, especially Jian Xing, and when they talked about the rise, they were a little carried away.

"That is, I was trapped in this little ravine, otherwise if I could have gone to college, I would have been no worse than those students in the city," he said. When the time comes, I will go to school and write and criticize bad politics, I don't know how many times better it will be than it is now. ”

Jiang Yulou was not too surprised, it seems that this Teacher Jian is not as indifferent as he appeared, he is still extremely eager for city life and college career.

Still, he seems to mention writing?

"Teacher Jian is also interested in writing?"

Jian Xing's impassioned enthusiasm disappeared and became depressed: "Alas, I have this mind, but I have no talent for writing, and I can't even look at what I write, and after showing it to the teacher, I was criticized for being useless." But I've written a few modern poems, which are okay, but they're just for my own amusement. ”

When it comes to writing poetry, he is a little complacent, and he is obviously quite good.

Jiang Yulou said sincerely: "Teacher Jian, writing is the most taboo behind closed doors. We can communicate more, and we can't say that our writing skills can be improved. ”

"yes, that's what I thought, too." Jian Xing was very happy, which was also the reason why he found the other party after getting the news.

After a moment of consideration, Jiang Yulou asked, "Teacher Jian, what type of novel did you write before?" ”

Jian Xing touched his chin and said uncertainly: "It should be regarded as realism, mainly to criticize some injustices in society." ”

This kind of theme has existed from ancient times to the present, and it has not been broken, and it is easy to write well, but it is not easy to write the heart and resonate with readers. For example, some criticisms are easy to be superficial, or too detached from reality, and it is not easy to please readers.

Jiang Yulou nodded, and then suddenly said, "Does Teacher Jian know the most popular literary genre in the literary world today?" ”

The literary world, the genre, these two words suddenly suppressed Jian Xing.

He is just an educated youth, where does he know such high-end knowledge.

At the same time, he also became more and more curious about Jiang Yulou. This young man a few years younger than him is not simple, and he may know some master. Otherwise, where did he get this knowledge?

Just by virtue of his family background that has been a farmer for generations?

How can it be!

So, Jian Xing humbly asked: "Can Mr. Jiang talk about it carefully?" ”

It may not be possible to ask Jiang Yulou to say something professional, but he is still very good at saying some nouns and explaining.

He coughed and cleared his throat, "Ahem, the most popular thing in the literary world today is scar literature. ”

Scar literature?

Another new term I haven't heard before.

"Yulou, what is scar literature?"

"Scar literature is a group of indictative novels that show the mental trauma caused by the "buzzing era" in the context of the era when educated youth returned to their hometowns after the end of the buzzing era. It got its name from Lu Xinhua's short story "Scars" based on the life of educated youth in that era. ”

"Most of the works of scar literature are narratives of suffering experiences, which reflect the unfortunate experiences of individuals caused by political fallacies in a specific historical stage, as well as express the emotional trauma of individuals' hearts, showing the awakening of people's subjective consciousness and restoring the critical function of literature."

"In terms of creative techniques, scar literature has achieved a return to literary authenticity; In terms of emotional mode, scar literature mostly creates a tragic atmosphere to vent emotions. ”

Under Jiang Yulou's explanation, Jian Xing was greatly shocked and had a trace of resonance.

"Scars", he really wanted to read it.

The conversation with Jiang Yulou made Jian Xing see another possibility of writing.

He felt a fire in his heart, if he wrote about the experience of educated youth, could he publish it?

"Scar literature, others can write it, why can't I." Jian Xing said secretly in his heart.

He is keenly aware that scar literature should be a shortcut to his door to the door of writers. He didn't seek fame or fortune, he just wanted to be a writer, and then leave this small village and return to the city where he was supposed to be.

Yes, he was not as willing to nest in this little ravine as he appeared. It's just that he has no background, although there is a teacher in the provincial capital and the editor-in-chief of the literary magazine "Yanhe", but his writing level is not up to par, and he can't ask the teacher to be accommodating.

Otherwise, he would have begged his teacher for help.

Thanks to Jiang Yulou!

"Teacher Jiang......"

"Teacher Jian, hey, don't call me Teacher Jiang, Shengfen. I see that we are about the same age, so it's okay, I'll call you Brother Jian, and you can call me Yulou. ”

"Okay, then I'll take care of you and call you Yulou."

"Brother Jane."

Becoming friends with Jian Xing is also a trend, many friends have many roads, the other party is still a young person, I heard that there is a relationship in the provincial capital. Everyone is from Shaanxi, and it is indispensable to help each other in the future.

It's not about creating a clique, it's the reality.

In today's literary world, Northwest writers are still much weaker, and they must not do things that tear each other down.

Moreover, Jane Pedestrian is not bad.

From the conversation with him, Jiang Yulou learned that his wife Zhang Yufen was from this village, a standard village woman, and she couldn't read a single big character. The acquaintance between the two is also very simple, Jian Xing lived in Zhang's house when he was a young intellectual.

came and went, and the two became acquainted.

In those years when I couldn't eat enough, thanks to the help of the Zhang family and Zhang Yufen. Otherwise, he was not a primary school teacher at that time, and he had to do heavy farm work every day, although he would not be tired to death, but it was definitely uncomfortable.

Originally, Jian Xing was grateful to the Zhang family, but he would not marry a village woman. But well, things are impermanent. In the wave of educated youths returning to their hometowns, after he knew that he couldn't go back, the Zhang family found someone to persuade him, he was desperate at that time, and he agreed to this family affair as soon as his head was hot.

At that time, apart from the village, he didn't even tell his parents who lived in the provincial city when he got married.

Jian Xing was not very satisfied with this marriage, but he loved his wife Zhang Yufen very much.

When chatting, Jiang Yulou could always hear Jian Xing's praise for his daughter-in-law.

Virtuous, hard-working, able to handle household chores, support husband's career, etc., etc.

Their husband and wife are so harmonious, which is also enviable.
