My mother Bingxin
Wu Qing
I never thought my mother was a writer, but I thought she was my mother.
I started to remember from Chenggong, Yunnan, and my family fled everywhere. Four months after the July 7th Incident,19371/kloc-0 was born in Beiping in June. If it weren't for my birth, my parents would have left Beiping under the occupation of Japanese militarism with my grandmother, brother and sister. My mother wrote in "Mo Lu Test Pen": "Beiping is dead! I love Peiping, the people I loved. After I didn't struggle or resist, I groaned intermittently and suddenly died. " This not only represents her mood at that time, but also represents the mood of all people with conscience.
I have a brother and a sister. I spent the most time with my mother since I was a child and got the most love from my mother. When I was a child, my mother often told me stories and took me to Gele Mountain to enjoy nature. Then she always told me that I should love small animals. Since they are creatures, they should have a chance to live happily in this world. When I was a child, I was very naughty and especially liked to play outside. Sometimes when I catch butterflies, bugs and sparrows, my mother always says, "Let it go, its mother may be waiting for it." If you don't let it go, its mother may be in a hurry. Especially when it's dark, how would you feel if there was no mother outside? "
Mother is always generous in giving love to those in need. Mom has many students, many of whom are rural and poor. For example, Xiao Gan was very bitter at that time, and his mother helped him find a job as a photocopier. Many of my father's students are poor, and their mothers help them find jobs. When they grow up, their mother will be their matchmaker. When they get engaged, get married, have children, and name, mom will come out to help. I remember my father took a student named Huangdi to write a paper, but Huangdi couldn't write it. When his father asked him why, he said, "My child always cries in the middle of the night, which makes me unable to write." Dad told mom that mom would take a rickshaw to the Yellow Emperor's house to bathe his children after giving me a bath every night. The child took a bath, slept well and stopped at midnight. Our family is almost the world of parents and students. Some people came in crying, others came in smiling. My mother always shares their troubles and enjoys happiness with them. Mother always has some money for writing, but she often gives it to others. For example, the daughter of an old nanny at home, attending junior high school, high school and university, has always been funded by her mother. For example, she often receives many gifts now, and often gives them away as soon as she receives them. She always wants others to share it with her.
Mother is indifferent to fame and fortune. Someone asked my mother why she could live to be ninety. I think this is because she is detached and open-minded. Now she feels that she is not afraid of anything. She felt that she was not living for others, fame or profit. She always hopes to introduce some young writers to the society. Sometimes when I go home, she greets me and says, Oh, little sister, it's especially good to read this article. She is always willing to recommend these good works. And she thinks that all young writers should get in touch with the outside world more, so when someone comes to our house, she always tells everyone that a young writer has come recently, and so on. She believes that the future world should belong to young people, not them.
Mom has a profound influence on our lives. What impressed me most was that my mother taught us to be true, to be true and to tell the truth when we were young. She is most opposed to older children bullying children and fighting. She has a unique way to punish us for swearing and telling lies, that is, besides gargling with soap, we should also drink nourishing water. When I was a child, my sister and I often quarreled, and swearing was very ugly. My mother told us to drink nourishing water and not to swear or lie, so I think it is still very difficult for me to lie now, especially after I became a representative of Haidian District and Beijing. My mother has always encouraged me, saying that if you are for the benefit of the people, then don't be afraid of all kinds of powerful evil forces and dare to tell the truth.
I find my mother's writing very interesting. In my impression, she used to write at home. Although there is a nanny in our family, my mother often goes to the kitchen to wash dishes and collect coal. This is when she made a draft. Sweeping the floor, arranging flowers, or going out to meet friends alone, or waking up in the morning, is often the time for her to draft her mind. Her works are basically done in one go, and they are always copied after writing. I seldom read my mother's things before, but since the 1980s, I have actually been the first reader of many of my mother's works. When she finishes writing, she always shows me, "How about you show me this?" She always wants people to show it to her before publication. My mother likes listening to stories and reading books since she was a child, especially Chinese and foreign classics. She said, "Read more, read more, read more". She encourages young people to read Chinese and foreign books, not only literature, but also psychology, natural science and social science. Reading can expand emotional experience, so that things that have not been experienced can be experienced from books. You can also learn to use Chinese characters. Using Chinese characters is like unlocking a lock with a key. As long as you are skilled, you can open the door. Learn to use metaphors, so that you can concretize an abstract thing.
I remember my son Chen Gang's fifth grade summer vacation, and the teacher asked him to write a composition every week. One afternoon, mother saw her grandson sitting in a chair worried and asked him what made him so unhappy. He said he would write a composition, but he didn't know what to write. That night, his mother asked him, "What will you do if you don't hurry to write your composition?" Then he asked, "It's getting dark. What are you going out to play? " Chen Gang said, now is the time to catch cricket. You can catch cricket by turning under the stone by the wall. Then put it in a jar filled with sand, find three kinds of grass, and pull out three very thin Mao Mao on it, with flocs on it. You can tease crickets with flocs. As soon as my mother heard this, she said, "Now go catch crickets and come back and write down how you caught them." He kissed his grandmother happily and said, "Thank you very much," and ran downstairs with his little jar. Later, his article was well received by the teacher. This is what my mother always said, we shouldn't write for the sake of writing. Observe carefully at ordinary times, see, hear, smell, taste and experience with your own eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body, and write out what you are familiar with and experienced. It is necessary to write about major events as well as minor events and details. It is necessary to write both the surface and the connotation, so that the article can be vivid and touching.
My mother is a very strong-willed person. She used to be in good health, although she vomited blood for a while. But since 1980, she has hemiplegia and fell down again. She can't do it. Once she said to me, "I may never write again." But my mother's perseverance is particularly strong, and she began to walk in the fields when she was a little better. Besides practicing walking, she also practices writing. First she writes 50 words with a pen every day, then 60 words, 100 words, 400 words.
Mother is a very emotional person, and she has always linked her destiny with the destiny of the country. Now sometimes she hears about waste, corruption and theft, and she hates it. But if she hears that there is progress and happiness, she will be in a particularly good mood. Mom watches TV, and she watches the ball game, no matter how late it is, as long as the China team takes part. You ask her about football, and she knows that she can name some players. If she saw the China women's volleyball team win, her mother would cry. I think my mother has done her duty as a mother and teacher, because she taught us to love our motherland from an early age. No matter what shortcomings she has, our motherland is still our own.
