"Border City" is a novella written by Shen Congwen**, first published in 1934.

In the 30s of the 20th century, the border town of Chadong at the junction of Sichuan and Hunan was used as the background, and the beautiful brushstrokes of both lyric poetry and essays depicted the unique customs of Xiangxi; borrowed the pure love story of Cuicui, a girl from the boat family, to show the kindness and beauty of human nature. Due to the aesthetic art of "Border City", "Border City" has a unique position in the history of modern Chinese literature.

The ** was selected as one of the top 100 Chinese ** in the 20th century, ranking second, second only to Lu Xun's "The Scream".

The above content reference: Encyclopedia - Shen Cong's Anthology: Border City.

**With the background of life in Xiangxi, he has indescribable sympathy and love for the people of his hometown. Since I was a child, I have said: "My feelings flow but do not solidify, and a clear wave has a great impact on me." Much of my beautiful life as a child was inseparable from water. ”

Shen Congwen loved art in his early years and was quite accomplished in art and painting. Therefore, when observing society, we always look at it with the aesthetic eye of a painter, or with the eye of a painter who pursues aesthetics. Therefore, most of the works are fresh and graceful, and sadness or grief is often hidden behind the beauty of Xiangxi's human nature.

Border City is a nostalgic work, a nostalgia with feelings of regret. It is a warm work, but behind it lurks a deep sense of tragedy of the author. Shen Congwen is the main "performer and reflector" of the rural world with special significance, and he is answering the lead that "the beauty is in life".

Although he is in a city of hypocrisy, selfishness and indifference, he is fascinated by the beauty of human nature.

There is no noisy rhetoric in "Border City", and there is no strong color. Only the kindness of words. However, those sentences that seem to be unadorned are based on nature as the best rhetorical principle and tranquil beauty as the highest aesthetic style, creating a poetic and picturesque artistic conception.

Elegance is reflected in descriptive language, such as: "Dusk is still gentle, beautiful and calm." But when a person thinks or investigates this present everything, it is still a little desolate in this twilight.

There is a touch of melancholy in the tranquil and beautiful picture.

Content analysis of the commemorative edition of Border City.

Hello dear, glad to answer for you. Content analysis of the commemorative edition of Border City. "This person may never come back, maybe he will come back tomorrow", this is the end of Mr. Shen Congwen's novella ** "Border City", which is loved by many readers. With the last sigh of Cuicui, the protagonist of Qingchi Xin, the pure love in Xiangxi Chatong also drew a poignant question mark here.

From the perspective of the main ideological content, "Border City" constructs a utopia with the background of Chatong Town in Xiangxi, with the love entanglement between Cuicui, the granddaughter of the old boatman, and the two sons of the ship's general manager Shunshun as the main line, eulogizing the pure beauty of love and the kindness of human nature, shining with the agility and poetic beauty of nature. 1.Pure love centered on "Nature's Son Danbo" Cuicui 2

With "father's love like a mountain" grandfather as the representative of the simple human affection of the honor wheel.

I listened to the book "Border City" just now, and I couldn't suppress the urge to go to the border city to see it. I want to see what Laladu is like, look at the border city written by Shen Congwen himself, and see the statue of Cuicui on Cuicui Island with a pigtail and a dog. Look at the liveliness and quietness of Xiangxi Town.

As the junction of Hunan, Sichuan and Guizhou provinces, the border city not only has beautiful scenery, but also beautiful people and beautiful stories.

In addition to beauty, there is also a story of love in "Border City". The story of Cuicui and the send-off began with the Dragon Boat Festival. The love between two people who fell in love at first sight did not go well.

There is not a single bad guy in Border City, everyone is kind and upright, but it leads to tragedy.

For grandpa, the most important person in life is Cuicui. But he always didn't make his words clear, but turned around a thousand times. It is this character that leads to Cuicui's tragedy.

There are too many roads, but there is no way out. In the face of the elder's liking for Cuicui, the grandfather asked the elder to either go on the road or propose marriage through the family, and there was also a waterway to sing mountain songs for Cuicui for three years and six months. But in the face of the old man who walked on the road, Cuicui didn't give a result, so grandpa didn't give a result.

The eldest elder who couldn't walk on the road knew that the second elder also liked Cuicui, and the waterway was the strength of the second elder, so the eldest elder withdrew gloomily. Unexpectedly, the elder had an accident and drowned.

Because Grandpa didn't reply quickly, everyone thought that Grandpa killed the elder, and Grandpa felt guilty because of this.

A wealthy family fell in love with the second elder and wanted to use the mill as a dowry to marry his daughter to the second elder. In the face of this rumor, Grandpa was obviously a little panicked, although he tried to test the tone several times, he did not clearly say what he really thought, and he also did not get a clear answer. People are sometimes like this, although they communicate face-to-face, they don't make the words clear, but they cause more misunderstandings.

The self-respecting and sensitive old man died on that stormy night. Cuicui was left alone.

As for Cuicui, she is simple, kind and subtle, she is shy about love, and has never clearly expressed what she wants. So the love between her and the second elder is also full of twists and turns, and it is not perfect.

At the end of the story, Cuicui understands her grandfather's good intentions, she no longer hides, she wants to wait for the second elder to come back. Maybe that person will never come back, maybe tomorrow will be back.

This story of love and beauty ends, everything is full of goodness, but there are no coincidences everywhere. Will the second old lady come back? I believe that it will, although the tragedy cannot be remedied, but true love and kindness will have a strong vitality, and he will come back.

Love is afraid of silence, love is not for the other party to guess, love needs to be expressed and transmitted. When you want to meet, you meet when you want to meet, if you have someone you like, you can clearly say that you like it, you celebrate when the flowers bloom, you can talk about love when you fall in love, and you can share good things when you share them with others. When you are happy, enjoy your happiness and experience it 100% sincerely, because this is the only thing you can master in life.

Therefore, if there is an important person, it is good to live and eat with him and be reunited.
