Author: Xin Fengxia
Source: October 1981, No.4 [1] Article selected: PEP Junior Middle School Chinese Volume 2 [2] At that time, Tianjin was a bustling industrial city. Even in the slums of Nanshi, there are many people who love to sing, and there are also amateur opera actors called by fans. The party place-box office. Every day, someone plays and sings at the box office, which is very lively. Especially in summer, people come to the box office in twos and threes after dinner. Although it is crowded in a small alley, adults and children keep coming here, and Tianjin people have such a tradition of loving to play and sing.
Not only do people often hear singing during the day, but also people often sing loudly in the hutongs at night, including those who sing Peking Opera, Pingju and rap. In Tianjin, it seems that there is music everywhere, even the shouts of doing small business are all in tune. For example, there is a seller of medicine candy, and his shouting is very particular: "selling medicine candy!" ..... Oranges, bananas, elixirs, rendan, radishes, olives, and pears were destroyed by fire. Eat a piece of candy to relieve boredom, and one piece will taste good. It's easy to take a piece of medicine candy, but you're not sleepy with medicine candy. Eating a piece of medicine candy is better than going to a' cheap shop'. Eating a piece of medicine candy makes you happier than eating steamed stuffed buns ... "
This medicine candy seller was only fifteen or sixteen years old. He is clever, can do carpentry, can repair locks, shoes, cars, lights, and almost everything. Something is broken, just give it to him and fiddle with it for a while. He also has another characteristic: he loves to help others, and he helps them to the end with one help, and he has a kind of enthusiasm and stupidity. I've never heard that he has a scientific name. I'm so stupid at him that people forget his cleverness and call him silly second brother! Call him "stupid".
when he sells medicine and candy on the street, he has to wear a set of special clothes (xíng head) worn by opera actors during performances. This refers to clothing. Chinese-style coat with white cloth and black trousers. Holding the cuffs, keeping them apart, and carrying a large, elegant glass bottle with a belt. There is a bright copper lid on the bottle mouth, which can be opened half way. Around the bottle, there are also some small light bulbs that shine by batteries. The bottle is full of colorful medicine candy. There is a pair of electroplated long pliers hanging next to the bottle, which is used to hold sugar. It means hygiene without hands.
Silly second brother wore rags at home, so he changed into this clean suit when he went to sell medicine and candy. Every time he goes out to sell goods, he always greets his neighbors, "auntie, uncle, aunt!" " Cried quietly, "I'm going to the street, see you later …" and left with a tune in his mouth. He was always so happy.
The most noticeable thing about Silly Second Brother is his shouting, which is very serious. Seeing that there are many children, he will be ready to shout. First stretch your legs, shake your arms, cough twice and try your voice. Two feet in front of each other, front legs arched and rear legs pedaled; One hand rested on her hips and one hand covered her ears, and then she shouted loudly. Because he has a good voice, at this time, like singing opera, high and low voices are all shouted out in sets, attracting many people to see him. At night, he turned on the traffic light bulb, shining on the flashing copper cover and electroplating pliers, which was very conspicuous. Adults and children crowded to buy sugar, and many of them came to watch the fun. To tell the truth, there is nothing delicious about this medicine candy, but it is colorful and beautiful. For example, green, mint, a little cold; Golden yellow, orange, a little orange flavor; Big red, red fruit, a little sour hawthorn; It's light blue, it's banana, and it smells a little banana. It's not easy for silly second brother to support his family with one or two pieces of medicine candy! What is admirable is his patience and serious attitude, and he is not afraid of trouble. Children often buy sugar to look good; I bought it, but if I think it's not good, I'll change it for red, green and yellow again, often several times. Silly second brother is patient and doesn't bother at all.
silly second brother's family is very poor. He has a widow's mother, and we all call his mother "Sugar Niang" because the silly second brother sells medicine and sugar. He also has three younger brothers. His mother works as a servant for others, and his younger brothers have to be taken care of by him. When he goes to the streets to do business, he has to entrust his neighbors to take care of his home and his younger brothers. Our yard is full of poor families who care for each other.
once, silly second brother went out with his mother, who was holding a chain and a lock to lock the door. Silly second brother wouldn't let the lock go and said, "Why did you lock the door?" Let the neighbors see how bad it is. " Mom said, "A poor family is worth millions, and a poor family is bankrupt. If you throw a handful of firewood, you won't burn it." Mother and son quarreled, and everyone ran to see it, saying, "Silly second brother is knowledgeable, and both live in the same yard. Can't you trust our old neighbors in the old street?"
actually, my mother can't earn much money by helping others. Suddenly one day, she came back from unemployment. Said it was because the owner suspected that she had stolen the money and dismissed her. "Sugar Niang" was full of grievances and cried with anger, and the neighbors were also very angry. Silly second brother can be reasonable now. He said to his mother, "Look, who is always accusing others of stealing?" That's the rich man's wives. All the people living in our courtyard are poor. Who are you locking up when you go out? " Mom said, "Come on, if you don't lock it, you won't lock it. I'll do whatever you want ..." Silly second brother is very popular in our hospital. He sells medicine and candy every day and is not idle. Help neighbors repair shoes, install electric lights, where there are weddings and funerals, he helps to sweep the house, brush the pulp, paste the ceiling, paste the windows ... Help others build firewood stoves and use old kerosene barrels to make briquette stoves. Sometimes the business is done well, and he gives a few pieces of medicine candy to the children in the same hospital. It rains on cloudy days, and he helps the elderly to buy food; On snowy days, he must sweep out the road for everyone's convenience. Silly second brother is the most capable person in the yard, and he is indispensable to everything.
Sometimes, silly second brother goes to the box office to sing two paragraphs, and he is always cheerful. His mother had a relapse because of overwork, many children and a hard life. Silly second brother does business and has to take care of his sick mother. Although the three younger brothers shoulder to shoulder are very sensible, they are all too young, and their mother is taken care of by her neighbors when she is sick. Everyone in the same hospital said, "Everyone holds firewood, and it is easy for everyone to help a family."
Soon, Sugar Niang died. Silly second brother with three younger brothers alone, this family is even less like it. Neighbor aunts mend clothes for children and help with cooking. Give them a few cakes; Cook a pot of mixed noodle porridge and give two bowls to the children. Once, when I came home, I saw three children sitting on the steps, waiting for my brother to come back. It's very cold, and everyone has a runny nose and leans against each other. What a pity! I led them into the yard, warmed themselves at my house, and asked my mother to find some dry food for them to eat, waiting for my brother to come home. With the help of neighbors, the three younger brothers grew up slowly under the care of their older brothers. When they were eleven or twelve years old, they stopped eating idle meals. To do child labor, do odd jobs, pick up junk, pick up coal ball. Learn from my brother, they are all so diligent, sensible, enthusiastic and kind.
One year before liberation, I went to Qingdao to sing opera and left Tianjin. I don't know what happened to the four brothers, but I often think of the silly second brother who sells medicine and sugar.
In p>1958, I went to Tianjin "China Grand Theatre" to perform, and my second silly brother suddenly came backstage to see me. He works in a sugar factory and is an amateur actor! Three younger brothers, all grown up. He has married and established a family, and he is no longer a bitter child who sold medicine and sugar in those days. When I talked about my old neighbor, my second brother said, "The poor help the poor, the rich help the rich, and the officials help the rich. Thanks to the poor neighbors, it was only after liberation that it was the end! " [2]3 artistic features 1. Simple and friendly language style.
