What's your impression of Hakka men in Jiangxi?

Not so good. Let me tell you a story: they are a unique class among Han women. /kloc-for 0/000 years, they used a pair of big feet to walk from the Central Plains to southern Xinjiang, and made a mountain road for future generations of Hakka descendants. In the mountains of southern Jiangxi, western Fujian and northern Guangdong, and in every corner of the world, Hakka women have nurtured and supported the most touching part of Hakka culture with their simplicity, diligence and virtue. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, it has experienced dynasty change, war and diaspora. Today, Hakka people are moving towards stability and prosperity, and Hakka women have been in the years.

In recent years, more and more Hakka scholars have begun to pay attention to Hakka women. Some scholars even think that the main part of Hakka culture is supported by Hakka women.

The exploration of Hakka women's spirit has always been a hot topic in every World Hakka Congress. 165438+1October 19, at the international symposium on Hakka culture held during the 19th World Hakka Integrity Conference, the spiritual connotation of Hakka women not only attracted the attention of Hakka researchers again, but also a group of European and American scholars with different cultural backgrounds with Hakka began to have a deep yearning for Hakka women. Professor Lao Gewen, a doctoral student at Harvard University and a doctoral supervisor at the French Institute of Advanced Experiments, said that before attending the meeting, he had conducted a long-term investigation in the Hakka settlements in southern Jiangxi, and Hakka women impressed him the most. There are many things in Hakka women that can attract the attention of the world.

In fact, as early as a century ago, robert smith, an American missionary, lived in Hakka for many years and was deeply moved by Hakka women. He wrote in the American magazine 1905: Hakka women are the most admirable women of any ethnic group I have ever seen. In Hakka, it can be said that almost all the heavier work is the responsibility of women. If you live in Hakka for the first time, you will be surprised. Because you will see almost all workers doing business in towns, stations and docks, farming in rural areas, chopping wood in deep mountains, and even rough people building houses, doing heavy decoration in ash kilns and tile kilns.

In the history of China, Hakka women are the only Han women who have no bad habit of foot binding. They are called "healthy women" by some researchers.

Why didn't that long and smelly foot-binding belt entangle Hakka women for hundreds of years? For a long time, many experts have done serious research and interpretation while being curious. Researchers believe that to solve this mystery, we must first understand Hakka women.

The fact that Hakka women don't bind their feet is closely related to the migration and migration of Hakka people. A pair of little feet can't cross Qian Shan in Qian Shan, and objective conditions don't allow them to bind their feet like other Han women. In Hakka, women are the mainstay of family life. After men go out into the world, Hakka women must have a pair of big feet to take on the responsibilities of life and family. This is an important reason why Hakka women don't bind their feet.

"Of course, this is not the only reason." Han Zhenfei, a Hakka expert, said that the fact that Hakka women did not bind their feet was also related to the living conditions of Hakka people at that time. Because Hakkas live in mountainous areas, they are far from the constraints of imperial ethics. This can also be found in folk songs handed down by them.

"I plow at sunrise, weave hemp at night, and my brother and sister are in charge." Eighteen-year-old and three-year-old Lang went into the bridal chamber with lanterns, and waited until the elder sister Lang was old, and when the flowers bloomed, the leaves turned yellow. "Hakka women like singing folk songs. Folk songs contain their life and destiny. They are gentle and obedient and have a world-famous fighting spirit. Hakka women in feudal imperial era showed tolerance and obedience in their marriage life. They sometimes make their fate miserable because of this.

Historical changes always make Hakka women continue to write legends in legends and reality.

In Meixian County, China, a legend about Hakka women has been circulating for nearly a thousand years. In the Southern Song Dynasty, an emperor fled to the south and was chased by enemies in the north. When the emperor fled to Meixian, he had already seen the smoke raised by the pursuers. In such a desperate battle, it was a group of Hakka women who went up the mountain to cut firewood and saved the emperor. After the emperor escaped from danger, in order to repay Hakka women, all the women in this area were named after their children after their death. Later generations wrote poems for Hakka women: men hold swords and women wear armor, and 8 thousand children go to the diligent king.

In the history of Hakkas, Hakka women not only assumed family responsibilities in the family, but also marched to the battlefield with big feet. In the peasant uprising army of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the famous "women's camp" was composed of Hakka women. These Hakka women, who Zeng Guofan called "Bigfoot ManZhan", were sealed by hundreds of people after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom made Nanjing its capital.

On the Long March, the vast majority of Hakka children who went out never came back. However, Hakka women are still persistent in watching, and they have been supporting the future with their own beliefs. In Ruijin, Jiangxi, a Hakka bride who has been married for only 16 days has been married for 60 years after sending her husband to the Red Army. To this day, she will often sit on the threshold and watch the way home. Her eyes can travel through a century of wind and rain and see the figure of her husband when he left home.

-This is a persistent and earth-shattering Hakka woman.

Hakka, a clan that constantly migrated in the history of China, was formed in a dynamic way. After several generations of Hakka families embarked on the road of southward migration running through the north and south in order to stay away from the war, they developed into a community of 80 million people distributed all over the world today. As the carrier of Hakka culture, Hakka women continue the Millennium legend with their unique spiritual characteristics.
