Cao Naiqian, a policeman from the Public Security Bureau of Datong City, Shanxi Province, began to publish literary works in newspapers such as Shanxi Literature from 199 1. His short stories can describe a person's whole destiny in 400 to 500 words. Because he has lived in the countryside for a long time, the language he uses is sometimes rough and "dirty" and completely folk. His language has not been filtered by ideology, and it has a strong local flavor.
You who can't sleep at night is the most famous one, which is about people and things in Wenjiayao. Beiwenyao Village is the prototype of Wenjiayao depicted in Cao Naiqian's novels. Beiwenyao Village is located in Yanbei area at the junction of Shanxi Province and Inner Mongolia. It was the place where Cao Naiqian led the educated youth in the countryside from 65438 to 0972. It is a very poor and backward rural area. Farmers are so poor that they can't even use kang mats. They have to spread kraft paper, and some people can't afford it, so they have to sleep in the mud.
Farmers can't afford to marry a wife, and about 20 of the 30 households in the village are two men marrying a woman. This two-man wife is an open custom in the local area. No matter the first man or the second man, they can have a "cake-eating" wedding ceremony. They respect each other and live in peace. Some people get along well although they have never eaten oil cakes.
Even so, there are men who want to be single. Poor, girls are married, so there are many bachelors. These bachelors are always tied together (such as the "big food party" in Cantonese). Because of poverty, everyone only brought coarse grains such as potatoes and naked oats. Wearing a tie, besides eating, is singing. The songs are bold and unconstrained; The lyrics are bold and simple; Emotional input, singing loud and clear. Almost everyone is an expert singer, and young men express their desire and pursuit for food and sex with their songs.
One of the songs, I can't help but miss you at night, is particularly touching:
I miss you during the day, and I can't get a needle.
Miss you at night, don't turn off the lights;
I miss you during the day and look forward to dusk.
Miss you at night, looking forward to dawn;
Miss you during the day, climb the wall,
I miss you at night, so I can't help it
I miss you holding a pillow in the dark,
Bite your head, your mouth is full of bran.
"Tucao" also has vivid lyrics:
Well water and bitter vegetable soup,
Not as good as my sister's spit.
And the melon with sugar is sweet.
Not as sweet as my sister.
After knowing them, Cao Naiqian often goes to listen to them sing. Sometimes I bring alcohol and tobacco. Once two bachelors drank too much. They hugged each other and kissed wildly. Seeing this, Cao Naiqian felt sick and even more sad. One of the best singers, Leng Er, has never been married. When Cao Naiqian revisited this year, Leng Er had passed away. %0
