Appreciation of teahouse characters

1. Wang Lifa?

This is a character that runs through the whole play. ? He is the shopkeeper of Yutai Teahouse. In the first act, he is in the prime of life. He just inherited the business of running a teahouse and his philosophy of life from his father-"I will say more good things and pay more respect according to the old method left by my father, and I will be liked by people without any big mistakes." ?

He is smart, considerate, sociable and adopts different reception methods for different people. ?

(1) Tang Tiezui is a gangster who smokes opium and plays fortune telling. Although he often owes money to buy tea, Wang Lifa keeps sending him tea in order not to disturb the tranquility of the teahouse. Created the image of an honest businessman. ?

(2) He called Erdezi "Deye". He said, "Buddies are friends in the street and have something to say. Grandpa, sit behind you! " A typical way to make peace is to think about the order of the teahouse, to please his customers, and to think about everyone's "peace."

He knows who Master Oh Ma is and knows the identity of a big shot like the back of his hand, which reflects his "dedication" to the teahouse. He knows who doesn't offend whom and what to say in front of whom. At this point, a vivid, shrewd and sophisticated businessman image has been clearly displayed in front of us.

To soldiers, policemen and spies, he said, "You are very clever." "I cannot thank you enough for your kind words!" A pair of buyers and sellers are just right and exquisite, which shows his wit and sophistication. ?

To refugees, Li San and others, he said, "Don't waste time!" "We have time to study our business!" Tough and indifferent to refugees. Although he sympathizes with Li San, he is limited, which shows his selfishness. ?

Lao She did not use strong brushwork and dramatic plot mutation to shape Wang Lifa. On the contrary, through some trivial activities in daily life, he revealed Wang Lifa's ideological character, style, demeanor and inner feelings layer by layer, which made this figure have intriguing artistic charm and left a deep impression on people.

Second, Wang Lifa

Wang Lifa, an ordinary citizen at the bottom of society and a businessman who honestly supported himself by his own hands, mobilized his intelligence and tried his best to maintain the old teahouse and his job left by his ancestors in that turbulent era. He didn't ask too much, just wanted something to eat, just wanted to keep the teahouse open.

But it is such a simple wish, and how much resistance has been encountered! It can be seen from the first act alone that his attitude towards everyone is different. Although his attitude is different, there are the same factors in it, and these same factors are the portrayal of his personality.

He is scrupulous in his duty, cautious in his words and deeds, diligent and conscientious, grovelling to dignitaries and not offending customers. He knows how to smile and fool around. He is smooth, thoughtful, knowledgeable and sophisticated, and he is quite accurate in speculating on everyone's psychology in society.

He also has a kind heart. Although he can't help the poor, he sympathizes with the refugees. He is helpless, smart and sad. In such troubled times, it is impossible for a man like him to turn the tide.

He has the limitations of his time, his vision is short-sighted, and he can't see anything too far and too profound. He is a civilian, he is an ordinary person, and he is one of the impoverished civilians in Qian Qian.

Third, Master Chang.

Master Zhang embodies the patriotic feelings of most Eight Banners soldiers. ? Although he used to eat the imperial grain of the Qing Dynasty, he was dissatisfied with the corrupt Qing Dynasty. "Anyway, can't play! If you really want to take a taxi, go outside the city as soon as possible; What are you doing in the teahouse? "

What sharp words, hit the nail on the head, he also has clear eyes, but these eyes hurt himself, because he saw too many uneven things, too many dark things, he could not turn a blind eye, just because of his frankness, which led to his tragic fate. ?

He looked down on Master Ma who ate foreign food, looked down on China people who admired foreign things and were obsessed with how many foreign things a person had. When he saw that the snuff bottle was also imported from abroad, he felt distressed. "How much money has to flow out!" I am saddened by the decline of the country, which also reflects a social reality of a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society at that time. ?

He is an upright standard bearer who cares about the fate of the country and the nation. Although he also has his limitations, he doesn't know how to save the country and the people, but he loves the Qing Dynasty and the motherland, which is in stark contrast to those who have had enough to eat but do nothing. "To shake down a peg or two, go with foreigners, foreigners! The British and French allied forces burned the Yuanmingyuan, and your family ate official salaries, but I didn't see you go to the front! "

This is what he said to Delko. A few sharp words made his position clear, such as sticking to his throat and not spitting. He said things that others were afraid to say. He is patriotic, he hates foreigners, and he is very disgusted with these "rebellious" guys, which is why he will cause trouble and almost lead to the combination of his fists and feet with Erdezi.

Break out halfway and stop the fight immediately. After learning the identity of Master Ma, he said, "Hum, I don't admire this stranger!" ? Grandpa Chang said to pockmarked Liu, "How can children be sold in the country?" This sentence also exposes the dark side of society.

It can be said that every word of Master Chang is aimed at the disadvantages of the times, and his eyes are very keen, but this keenness stems from his patriotism. It is natural for him to look at this corrupt world with such a mentality, and the more he looks at it, the more sad he becomes. Because of his personality, he had to blurt it out one by one.

Then he said to pockmarked Liu, "Master Liu, your winning spirit is really strong!" This is resentment and contempt for pockmarked Liu, a social scum. The last two conversations between Grandpa Chang and Pockmarked Liu were all caused by a foreign watch. Grandpa Chang once again lamented the decline of the country.

The conversation between Master Chang and Pockmarked Liu fully showed his love for the Qing Dynasty and the country, and also showed his resentment and dissatisfaction with this dark society. However, his character of backbone, boldness, honesty and frankness makes the characters close to fullness. ?

Grandpa often clashed with Qin because a mother and daughter begged. Grandpa Chang can't understand Qin's rhetoric and can't agree with his point of view. The contradiction between them lies in their understanding of this society.

Qin and Chang are very patriotic, but Qin is conceited, thinking that with his strength, engaging in industry can make the country rich and strong. Therefore, he disdains or even despises the kindness to refugees, and thinks that only people like him can start a career. He said, "It doesn't matter if someone gives the poor a bowl of noodles to eat."

And often grandpa four doesn't take Qin seriously at all, thinking that he is a so-called "industrialist" who can only muddle along, but he doesn't even have the heart to sympathize with the poor in his bones, so he sees all kinds of social realities, he can't see the light, he doesn't think he can save the country, he doesn't have the kind of overreaching of Qin, and he knows that all efforts are aimed at throwing eggs at stones.

Unable to turn the tide, he could only watch the Great Qing Dynasty decline, so he said bitterly, "The Great Qing Dynasty is going to be finished." He said this sentence, not to curse the Qing dynasty, nor to look forward to its completion. As he said later, he loved Qing and was afraid that Qing would be finished.

However, it was this unscrupulous speech that was caught, and it was in response to his "finished" words. How can a country without freedom of speech like this be endless!

This shows that Grandpa Chang is a sober patriot. He is neither blind nor conceited. He is an ordinary standard-bearer, an ordinary China person, an honest ordinary person who dares to tell the truth and do practical things, and a compassionate person.

He felt the suffering of the country and people and blurted out: "I see, the Great Qing Dynasty is going to be finished!" " "Grandpa often was taken away by Song Enzi and Wu Xiangzi. Before he left, he said this sentence: "I, I love Daqing, and I'm afraid it's over!" "What sincere words! He also used himself as a flag bearer to prove that he loved Qing.

The last sentence he said in this scene was "Don't lock it, I can't escape!" An aggressive tough guy image has been revealed, and he was a rare representative of China people in the society at that time! ?

Fourth, Qin

1 When the bill appeared, he was only in his twenties. After the failure of the Reform Movement of 1898, the national situation declined. With the heart of serving the country, he sold his ancestral business to set up a factory and wanted to save the country by industry.

It took him 40 years to start a big enterprise, and he felt that this was enough to "enrich the country and enrich the people". He was wrong. No sooner had War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression finished than his property was confiscated by the government. Instead of setting up a suitable factory, the authorities sold the machines as scrap metal.

Finally, he said helplessly, "I advise you, if you have money, you should eat, drink, gamble and run amok instead of doing good deeds!" " He is determined to change the reality of China, but his life has not escaped the shackles of this world. The semi-feudal and semi-colonial system and the national economic situation jointly controlled by imperialism, feudal oligarchy and bureaucratic comprador left him no room for exertion.

He is also patriotic. He stubbornly and proudly thinks that he can save the country and the people, but he thinks he is superior and cannot communicate with the public. It is inevitable that he was defeated in the dark all his life.

Five, yellow fat man

Huang Pangzi, the script explains that he is a "gangster", characterized by social forces, and is committed to "speaking" for different social groups in conflict and resolving contradictions. However, "I can't manage what Guanting can't manage, and I can't manage what Guanting wants to manage." It can be seen that it is the social supplement of the rulers, not really speaking for the people.

So the hooligans mentioned here are not ordinary bullies, but gang leaders. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, gangs prevailed in China. In the south, there were red gangs, green gang on the water, and old-age care centers in the southwest. In the north, "taking charge" prevailed, including Beijing. Linli was originally one of the private secret organizations in Qing Dynasty.

According to legend, Yang Lairu was a adherent of the late Ming Dynasty. His ancestral home was Jimo, Shandong Province, and he was a member of Anbaili Sect. One said that its founder was Yin Ling, Cang County, Hebei Province. Self-proclaimed "three religions in one." In teaching, we should abstain from drinking, smoking, greed, lying and disobedience, and secretly teach the purpose of clearing up and regaining sight. Popular in Shandong and Northeast China. The Qing government explicitly prohibited it. Later it was used by reactionary forces.

The origin of "Li" originated from Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties. The main features of Reasoning are advocating abstinence, opposing alcohol and tobacco, and banning smoking and alcohol. The founder of Li Men is Yang Lairu, a legend in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. Yang Lairu, whose real name is Yang Ze, was born in Chongzhen 16. Li Zicheng captured Beijing, and Yang Ze lived in seclusion in the mountains for 49 years. He was a scholar when he founded Li Men, and the participants were called "Zailier".

At the age of 8 1, Yang went down to preach and taught many disciples. There are four main purposes of door valve management: quitting smoking and drinking, advocating loyalty and filial piety, respecting benevolence and righteousness, and valuing righteousness over ceremony. There are many popular songs in rikyo.

For example, exhorting opium songs: I am bent on opium smoke, and I am half-starved, and I don't think about three meals, and I don't wear clothes all the year round. It's hard to get up when it's dawn in the fifth watch, and my six relatives are bitter, and the secular wants to quit smoking. 1999 All parties will quit smoking, and I will be a fairy if I am very happy.
