Chapter 89 introduce a good novel

Comrade Ma Feng published the short story "The Sun Has Just Rised" in the December 1959 issue of "People's Literature", which I think is a very good literary work.Its political and artistic qualities have reached a considerable height.This novel, like a piece of folk art, is so simple, natural, clear and kind.I suggest that young people who are new to writing can find it and read it. I am talking about this novel from the perspective of describing a family in New China.The first-person pronoun "I" in the novel is the elder brother of the main character, Secretary Gao. This elder brother who is the vice president of the cooperative calls Secretary Gao affectionately and affectionately as "my second child".How much he loves this younger brother who is both his superior and his introducer for joining the party!Not only him, even his lover "my wife" is the same as him. "After my mother died, both of us focused on my second child"

——Look at how well the word "pu" is used! ——As a long-term worker, he borrowed money from the landlord and sent his brother to study.After the land reform, he wanted to save a good family property. He wanted to buy five acres of land from a poor farmer, "so that my second son can live a good life for a few days", but because of this, he joined the army and left the army. The second child who served as the secretary of the county party committee "almost fell out with him." He was so angry that he ran to his parents' grave in the middle of the night and cried loudly, but the second child came to him and told him that "Communists should serve everyone."

He was immediately convinced by the truth.This time, because he did not agree to other villages digging wells in his village, the second child criticized him for being "selfish", and he cried again in anger.But the second child who knew him deeply and loved him, sat with him on the ground and chatted with him in the dark night, and persuaded him again. a little farther."He agreed to the measure of "concentrating on drilling wells and converging to send them away". On the one hand, he admired his second child from the bottom of his heart, "No wonder he is the secretary of the county party committee, and he can see the significance in ordinary things." How simple and sincere And a brief sentence!The inevitable trend of the development of the people's communes, as well as the party's enthusiastic support and active leadership, are all powerfully demonstrated!

There are other people in this novel, and I only present detailed descriptions of their caring and mutual encouragement among family members. "My second child" is of course a concentrated and prominent character. This person stands tall, sees far, and penetrates deep. , I was too busy to come back. The lover of the second child, "Dongmei", has only a few words about her, but vividly portrays a hardworking, kind and shy young woman.She loves her brother and sister-in-law. When she was in the city, she sent the five yuan she saved from frugality to the "old couple" who were eating chaff and vegetables in the countryside for the New Year.As for "my wife", she is a warm and considerate woman. When my brother brought his "unreasonable" second child home, she affectionately called him by his nickname—Erbao, and was proud of him. She made fun of him, and when she saw the second child "climbed to the kang and kissed Xiaomei who was sleeping", she went out very cleverly, and took her "old ghost" out as well.

And the second child still left after all!Secretary Gao, who hadn't closed his eyes for forty-eight hours, "pushed the bicycle with the roll of luggage tied intact, and Dongmei followed behind and delivered it to the door"... The most touching part is the last paragraph, "I quickly chased after him." Come out... I don't know why I chased him, when I chased to the entrance of the village, the sun just came out, and my second child was already far away." When I read the sentence "I don't know why I chased him" At that time, I suddenly felt sweet in my heart and sour in my nose, what a simple yet complicated feeling!There is pity, attachment, admiration, gratitude, and many emotions that he cannot express himself.Like the rising sun, the People's Commune appeared on the broad horizon, and the party's leadership always flew ahead of the 600 million people enthusiastically and actively!
