Students are reading Wang Zengqi's prose.
After reading many of Mr. Wang's essays, we will find that the themes of his essays are mostly trivial things in life, people or things that we meet in our daily life but don't pay close attention to. For example, the subtle description of summer scenery in Soaking in Teahouses and the vivid description of idle people in teahouses. Wang Lao embeds himself from an early age, writes trivial things, remembers rural customs, talks about flowers, birds, insects and fish, and tests allusions. He is good at capturing the ordinary beauty in life and looking for extraordinary interests in ordinary things.
In modern society, the pace of life of urbanites has accelerated and the pressure of survival has increased dramatically. They are immersed in their work and study, leaving their leisure behind and having no time to take care of ordinary people or things around them. Apart from work and study, they can't experience other pleasures of life. Their world is surrounded by material desires, and all the ordinary and beautiful things around them draw a clear line with them. They confine themselves to their own small world. The noise and tension of social life can only be adjusted and released through their inner peace and tranquility. Many readers love Wang Lao and are attracted by his examination and attention to trivial matters. In Wang Lao's prose, they can feel the joy and purification of the soul, and then pay attention to the surrounding environment again.

One is to learn some theoretical knowledge. For example, how to use Chinese characters in an article, he mentioned the uniqueness and significance of Chinese characters in China. He said that Chinese characters in China are for reading, not for speaking. Many poems lose their former things when they are recited, so he opposes reciting poems and prose. He advocates careful word-for-word interpretation. Shen Congwen's Border Town is less than 70,000 words, but it has been written for half a year. Wang Zengqi's prose is also unique word by word. But together, it's really amazing and free and easy. He advocates not describing characters too much. Instead, it should be described and compared from the aspects of environment, sound and color. How to organize articles? He said that before he wrote this article, he had an outline of the whole article in his mind, and he had to have an overall idea first. These were all thought out when he was sitting quietly with a cup of green tea.
Secondly, his prose style is concise and clear. Everyone will understand after reading it, and everyone can understand it. It is the teacher who inherits the characteristics of Shen Congwen. Although simple, it is a literary rhetoric, a literary language, not a dialect, and it is impossible to write such words without linguistic research and mastering skills. Wang Zengqi also talked about how Shen Congwen and Lao She practiced calligraphy. Wang Zengqi has a deep family background and a wide range of hobbies. In elementary school, grandpa taught him the Analects of Confucius and wrote a short essay "Yi", which was quite good. When I was in primary school, cultural things were insulated except herding sheep and digging bird's nest. I think the most valuable thing about Wang Zengqi's prose is "truth", and there is no suspicion of being melodramatic. It's true feelings, it's true words. In particular, that language is really rare, so we should let the younger generation try to figure it out. At first glance, it is comfortable and credible, unlike many articles written by people nowadays, which like to use gorgeous words, but the content is empty. Uncomfortable, very uncomfortable, unreal. Because of his extensive hobbies, his prose is naturally free, with vegetation, history and culture, characters' stories, folk customs and artistic relics. Are involved. But it is really about the characters, especially about teachers and friends, family background, father and mother. Intoxicating, showing his kindness, kindness and truth. For example, the memory of father in Father and Son Became Brothers for Many Years shows that father and son are so free, equal and harmonious. Memories of three mothers in My Mother. Although she is a stepmother, she is full of feelings and happiness.
The third is his feelings. He is friendly to everyone. For example, in the memories of many teachers and friends of The National SouthWest Associated University, we can feel his feelings for teachers and classmates. It's pure and natural. I think a person should be like him. Be friendly to anyone and be serious about everything. And the pursuit of natural simplicity in health care is also worth learning. I think some of his teachers, hospitality and cultivation mentioned in the article have a great influence on me. Those are true stories. People should keep a childlike innocence in life and don't put on airs. Reading is learning. It is very important to study articles and be a man.

Anyone who has read Wang Zengqi's prose is well-known. He writes about scenery, people, things and things, which seems stiff and dull, but in fact, the layout is careful, especially the ending is very good. Reading every ending is a pleasure. All landscape words are sentimental words, but not just landscape words. Every plain word is affectionate. The whole article only takes one or two paragraphs to say that it hurts, just like the tip of the iceberg, and we can feel the tip of the iceberg. For example, Autumn Flowers in Beijing is about all kinds of plants, which is very vivid and interesting, like a popular science book. Begonia is written at the back and brought to his mother. He died of lung disease when he was very young. He was locked in a small room, afraid of infection, so he didn't have much impression on his mother. When he saw Begonia, he thought of his mother. The language was calm and not lyrical at all, but it touched me a lot. Moreover, he wrote his teacher, Shen Congwen, "The stars are his articles, a pure man", and he wrote Shen Congwen's affairs in great detail throughout, which ended with the teacher's death. There is only one sentence, which also uses narrative to express emotions: "Such a person has gone like this." I looked at him and looked at him again, and I cried. "What is this advanced writing, can be called old books.
There are also feelings of naked women in the book. On the wall of one of the many teahouses near The National SouthWest Associated University, I found a real poem: reminiscing about the good old days, drinking tea with my father, touching snail shells in front of the door and making mud in the alley.
Several articles also mentioned tea culture. Wang Zengqi mentioned smashing tea in detail in Two Stories in Hunan. He likes eating it very much, which reminds me of the mashed tea bought by the roadside when I went to Xiangxi, Hunan last year. It's not very rustic, just like the shop in bubble tea. Wang Zengqi also mentioned many times that when studying in The National SouthWest Associated University, college students loved to soak in the teahouse in Kunming. Some people even put toothbrush washbasins in teahouses. He is a gourmet and an old tea drinker, and he also has some experience in tea. In the article "Ordinary Tea Talk", he talked a lot about eating tea.
As soon as the article arrived in southern Anhui, I found that my grandmother and Wang Zengqi were both descendants of the King of Yue. Hua Wang may be a hero of the separatist regime. Later, he fell to the Tang Dynasty and was made Lord of Yue by the Tang and Yuan Dynasties. In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, this was a very high title, and Sikong Su Yang in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was the King of Yue. Locally known as "Wang Wang", or "Wang Wang Di Da".
