Da Yanhe —— My nanny's writing background (abbreviation)

The model of "Dayan River" in the poem is "Daye River". It turns out that "Dayan River" is the homonym of "Big Leaf Lotus". Ai Qing's hometown, Jinhua, Zhejiang, has the same dialect as Dayan River. Five miles away from Fantianjiang Village, Ai's village, there is a village called "Daye River". Nanny Dayanhe's suffering experience is the same as that of Sister Xianglin. It seems that she doesn't even have a last name, so she changed her name to the village name "Daye River". Born in poverty, she was trafficked to Fantianjiang Village to be Jiang Zhongpi's child bride. After she gave birth to two children, her husband Jiang Zhongpi died, forced by life, and had to remarry to Jiang Zhengxing as his wife. Because she comes from "Daye River" village, everyone in the village calls her "Daye River". Therefore, the poem begins with the words "Her name is the name of the village where she was born, and she is a child bride ..." Middle school students who are new to this poem often think that "Dayan River" is the name of a river, which is anthropomorphic. This is clear and helpful to understand the content of the text.

Dayanhe is kind, hardworking and strong, and is indeed a typical rural woman in old China. She suffered "the bullying of human life for more than forty years" and got "the misery of countless slaves", but she is kind-hearted, hardworking and simple, and has a strong character. Early in the morning, set up a stove fire and work hard for the meal; Late at night, sewing clothes torn by thorns. Sometimes it is necessary to wrap the "child's hand cut with a wooden knife" and strangle the "lice on her husband's shirt". Although there are many things to do, you still have to "hold me in your arms and touch me with your big palm." "She is full of hopes and ideals for life." She laughed at "washing clothes", and she laughed at "feeding pigs, drying beans and wheat, being hard-working and showing her strong character.

How did Grandpa He become Ai Qing's nanny? Ai Qing was born in a landlord family named Fantianjiang Village in Jinhua County, Zhejiang Province. My mother's name is Lou Chou Xian, and it is very difficult to give birth to Ai Qing. Ai Qing was born in the womb for three days and three nights. The elders felt unlucky, so they asked the fortune teller to tell them that Ai Qing wanted to kill his parents at home, so it was stipulated that he could only call his father "uncle" and his mother "aunt", not "father" or "mother". Ai Qing's parents have a strong sense of feudal superstition. In order to avoid "killing their parents", they simply threw Ai Qing out and fostered him in a poor Dayehe family. And the extremely poor grandfather and, like Xianglinsao, dare to cut down the threshold of the land temple. She doesn't believe in ghosts and fortune tellers. She is not indifferent to Ai Qing because of her parents' discrimination, but full of sincere love and hope for him: "During the New Year, I was busy cutting him the sugar of winter rice"; "Dayan River, stick his bright red and green Guan Yunchang on the wall by the fire"; "In the dream, she is eating her baby's wedding wine and sitting in the magnificent hall. Her beautiful daughter-in-law affectionately calls her' mother-in-law', ... Dayanhe, who loves her baby!"

Ai Qing grew up to five years old, and his father Jiang Zhongzun told him to study. At this point, Ai Qing bid farewell to Daye River. Ai Qing, accustomed to the family life of poor and middle peasants, returned to his home with dust and dirt, but he was not used to the life of the landlord's family. When Ai Qing just left Daye River, he often sneaked back to his home in Daye River. At home, I also like to sleep with my third son and uncle. After growing up, Ai Qing finally betrayed his class, firmly stood on the standpoint of poor peasants, and showed deep friendship and infinite admiration for the kind, hardworking and strong grandfather who raised him. Ai Qing later recalled this unforgettable childhood life and said, "The five years in Dayanhe's home infected me with the kind of melancholy and sadness of farmers, and gave me a hazy initial impression of farmers in China."

The author's writing does have real people, but it is not limited to real people. Characters and events in literary and artistic works are not picked casually from life, nor copied mechanically from life, but extracted from rich life through the hard work of the author, creating artistic images higher than real life. There were thousands of Qian Qian in Qian Qian in old China, but the artistic image of Dayan River is more concentrated, typical and ideal than that of Qian Qian. Therefore, when we read the poem Dayan River-My Nanny, we not only felt the truth and kindness, but also received a profound aesthetic education.
