The Main Contents and Features of Border Town

1. Main content: The story written in Border Town is very simple, but extremely beautiful: in a remote town with beautiful scenery and simple human feelings in western Hunan, there are two grandparents and grandchildren who make a living by ferry. Their grandparents are over 70 years old and still strong. Their granddaughter is Cui Cui, 15 years old, and she is the seed of love. They are warm, simple and kind. On the Dragon Boat Festival two years ago, Cui Cui met a gift from the second young master, the local boatman, and planted a seedling of love from then on. Nuosong's brother Tianbao took a fancy to the beautiful and pure Cui Cui and asked someone to ask for relatives and friends from Cui Cui's grandfather. The local Wang Tuan has always taken a fancy to Nuosong and is willing to take the mill as a dowry to marry his daughter to Nuosong. I don't want to run a mill. I want to marry Cui Cui. I'd rather be a ferryman. So the two brothers agreed to sing and propose marriage, and let Cui Cui choose. Tianbao knows that Cui Cui likes to send promises. In order to fulfill his younger brother, he went out to the beach and died unexpectedly. Northong felt responsible for his brother's death, so he left Cui Cui and ran away from home. Grandpa worried about Cui Cui's marriage and died on a stormy night. Leave a man guarding the ferry and wait for promise to come back. "This man may never come back, maybe he will come back tomorrow!"

Two: Character image: 1. Look at the image of Cui Cui first. She is a child who grew up in green mountains and green waters. She has no parents and lives alone with her grandfather. Lack of maternal love since childhood, there is a vague yearning in my heart, grandpa is busy ferrying, and there is nowhere to tell her worries. The vibrant scenery around her made her feel sad and lonely, so she began to daydream and fantasize about running away so that my grandfather could find her. But when I think of my grandfather's helplessness when he can't find her, I worry about my grandfather and blame myself for the consequences of my own thoughts. She is naive, kind, gentle and pure, without any worldly dust. Because grandpa didn't understand her heart, she felt lonely and sad and cried. The seed of love, she has a hazy yearning for love, but also has incomprehensible feelings. She was fascinated by grandpa's story. When I heard Raul's songs in my dream, I felt I was flying, and I had the most beautiful dream. She was shy when grandpa told her a joke. Looking forward to hearing Raul's songs again, I can't wait for a long time, and my heart is full of loneliness and melancholy; Grandpa finished singing ten songs, and she said to herself, "I picked another Saxifraga." Shen Congwen described the dim and desolate state of mind of this son of nature, a pure girl image that is completely integrated with nature, and has her natural joys and sorrows in ordinary life. 2. Look at grandpa again. Honest, simple and conscientious, they are busy on the ferry in order to let the transitional people go home for dinner. Love Cui Cui, try to be considerate emotionally, tell her stories and sing songs when she is sad; Worried about her marriage, I want to publicize her love and attract Cui Cui's attention to singing at night. I am extremely concerned about life and won't let me sit on a hot stone. Tenderness and sympathy for losing parents since childhood. The tragedy of his daughter and son-in-law left an indelible scar in his heart. He was worried that Cui Cui would follow her mother's path, so he wouldn't tell Cui Cui the fact of singing at night or the choice of the Tianbao brothers. Cui Cui is the spiritual pillar of the old boatman's life. He is worried about Cui Cui's life after her death and wants to arrange her life better and have a good home. From this character, we can see his deep love for his granddaughter, and at the same time feel that he has a heavy, lonely and lonely feeling. These two grandparents who live together let us see the pure and beautiful love between grandparents and grandchildren in the world. Finally, look at the Tianbao brothers. There are not many excerpts, but we can still see the brilliance of human nature through this bit by bit. As brothers, Tianbao took the lead in the car and refused to sing first. When he knew that he was no match for his brother, he decided to leave, which made us deeply realize the deep and sincere brotherhood. Cui Cui, Grandpa and Tianbao brothers have their own joys and sorrows, which originate from ordinary life events and dissipate in ordinary life events. The simple love and sincere brotherhood between these grandparents and grandchildren constitute the natural and simple beauty of human nature.
