When I was four years old, my mother taught me a few words about the four books every day. Because I was too young to hold a pen, she cut bamboo branches into filaments, broke them, bent them into a picture, put them in my lap and taught me to read. When you know a word, tear it off. Teach me ten words every day, and the next day let me spell the words I knew the day before with bamboo silk until there are no mistakes.
When I was six years old, my mother told me to learn to write with a pen. My grandfather's family has never been rich. After several years of famine, the harvest was not good and life was particularly embarrassing. At that time, my mother made my clothes, shoes and hats for my little servant and me.
Mother is good at textile embroidery. Her embroidery and finished products were brought to the market by young servants, and people always rushed to buy them. Therefore, my little servant and I have always been dressed neatly, neither worn nor rotten.
I remember when my mother taught me, all the embroidery and textile tools were placed beside me. She put the book on her knee and let me sit on a small stool under her knee to read. My mother taught me to read sentence by sentence when operating in her hand.
The babbling of reading and the creaking of weaving are intertwined. I stopped working hard, so she hit me a few times with a ruler, hit me, and soon hugged me and cried, saying, "Son, if you don't study at this time, how can I see your father!" "
In the middle of the night, it was very cold. My mother sat on the bed, pulled the quilt over her feet, unbuttoned her clothes, warmed my back with her chest and accompanied me to read. I was tired and fell asleep in my mother's arms. After a while, my mother shook me and said, "wake up!" " "
I opened my eyes and saw my mother's face full of tears. I started crying, too. Have a rest and then ask me to read; Didn't sleep with me until the first cock crow. When I was menstruating, I once said to my mother, "Sister, you only have one son, so why bother!" She replied, "It's easy to have more sons. Only one son. If I don't make progress in the future, who can I rely on! "
Original text:
On Mother's Day when I was four years old, I was awarded four books and several sentences. Poor children couldn't write, but they carved bamboo branches into silk, broke them, bent them into waves, made words, and sat on their knees to teach them. Once you know, you can tear it down. Practice cross during the day, and all the staff can read with bamboo silk tomorrow, that's right.
At the age of six, I started writing books. Generations have not been nourished, and they have been hungry and fierce these years. Servants and slaves get their clothes and shoes from their mothers. The mother worker weaves and embroiders the organization, and all the female workers let the little slaves bring them into the city, which makes people compete; Therefore, servants and slaves are not in rags.
When I think of my mother's teaching, the group embroidered spinning performance is both right and left; Put a book on your knee so that the whole servant can sit on his knee and read. Mother-in-law is responsible for the operation, dictation, sentence reading, squeaking and grinding alternately. If the son is lazy, he will add less early summer, and then he will hold him and cry, saying, "If you don't study here, how can I meet your father!" "
Arrived, the night was very cold, and my mother sat on the bed, covering her feet, warming her clothes with her chest and reciting; Tired of watching, I slept in my mother's arms. Suddenly my mother shook her hand and said, "You can wake up!" " Visual mother, tear drops, all cried.
Less time, repeat reading; Chickens crow and lie down. The aunts said to their mother, "I have a son, so why bother?" "Yes, son, that's ok; My son is corrupt, how can I trust my sister! "

Brief introduction of the author
Jiang Shiquan (1725 65438+February1-65438+April 3, 0784), whose name is Yu Xin, Mi Sheng, Mi Sheng, Zangyuan, Qingrong Jushi, and Dingfu in the evening. Dramatist and writer in Qing Dynasty. Jiangxi lead mountain (now Jiangxi) people, ancestral home in Huzhou Changxing (now Zhejiang Changxing).
Qianlong twenty-two years, Jinshi, compiled by Guan Hanlin Academy. After Qianlong resigned in 29 years, he gave lectures at Jishan, Chongwen and Anding College.
He is proficient in traditional Chinese opera, classical poetry and prose, and is called "Four Great Talents in Jiangxi" together with Wang Zhi, Yang Nan and Zhao Youyi. Poetry, Yuan Mei and Zhao Yi are also called Jiangyou Sanjie. Sharp and broad, not the main reason, covered by the influence of the yellow valley, pay attention to bone strength.
Ancient prose is also useful, gentle and regular. His pen and ink are unrestrained, and he is a genius. China's traditional drama was also very popular in Qing Dynasty. Shi Quan's Poems of Zhongyatang contains 2,569 poems, and thousands of unpublished poems are preserved in the manuscript. His traditional opera creation includes 49 kinds of songs, such as Nine Poems of Hongxue Building.
Jiang Shiquan's poetry works contain 2,569 poems according to The Complete Works of Zhongyatang, which was printed in Yangzhou in the third year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty. There are thousands of unpublished poems in his manuscript.
Poems have a wide range of themes, some of which expose social contradictions and sympathize with the people's sufferings, such as Sigh of the Hungry People, Forbidding Sand Money, Four Commandments of Twenty-four Officials, The Battle of Richard, Love of Four Beggars, The Rhyme of Migui's Upside Down, etc., or expose officials' looting of money, or criticize officials' rampaging through villages, or describe the sufferings of the people at the bottom of society.
He also has some poems that reflect the customs of the lower classes in urban and rural areas, such as Poems of Yuefu in Beijing. But most of Jiang Shiquan's poems are personal lyricism, and there are also works of reminiscence and travel.
He wrote poems, claiming to learn from Li Shangyin at the age of 65,438+05, Du Fu and Han Yu at the age of 65,438+09, and Su Shi and Huang Tingjian at the age of 40. After the age of 50, "I don't rely on the ancients, but my poetry" (Volume II of the Collected Works of Zhongyatang).
On poetry, he also emphasized "Qi" and opposed the tendency of imitating the first seven poets in a retro way. He said that the disadvantages of Shen Deqian and Weng Fanggang's poetics are: "The later sages are close to the door, imitating Meng Rong. ..... Those who don't know, get together and worship. " ("four words")
He advocated learning from the Tang and Song Dynasties: "Both Tang and Song Dynasties were great men, and each became a generation of poets." "Both Tang and Song Dynasties were my teachers." (Argument Poetry) He refrained from attacking and emphasized temperament. "The article is original in temperament, but different in appearance" (Four Characters).
He said that poetry should be "unique in spirit, delete common sayings, be more prosperous and see the national style" ("On Two Poems of Uncle Huai Yuan"). However, the understanding of "spiritual nature" is different from that of Yuan Mei, who emphasizes "loyalty, filial piety, gentleness and gentleness" and shows more traditional consciousness.
On the whole, his poems are well written. Wang Chang's "Pubulang Mountain Residence Poetry" commented: "All poems are written, but ancient poems are better than modern ones, and seven words are better than five, so they are wild and unintentional." Yuan Mei's Preface to the Poems of Zhongyatang is very important to him:' Shake the pen to measure the meaning, horizontal and sharp, and the realm is empty. "
His artistic style can be represented by five ancient poems: traveling far, returning home at the end of the year, and seven ancient poems: Kaixian Waterfall, exorcising witches, the moon in Wannian Bridge, the wandering mother temple, Runzhou Xiaobo in Lv Qi, the carved stone pavilion in Meihualing, and the Xiangwang Temple in Wujiang.
