Stories about Huizhou women

Wang Yunyu, a talented woman from Huizhou during the Qianlong period, wrote "Partridge Sky? 6? 1 Listening to the Rain", which is desolate and condensed. The words go: "The pines are bleak, the candle shadows are dim, the sound of rain leaks to the west building, the golden furnace The fragrance is broken in the middle of the night, the jade curtain is cool and the autumn is in May. The people are lonely, the night is long, the horizon is blocked and the flowers are falling, and the tears are broken and the heart is still suffering. "This is a reflection of ancient Huizhou. A true portrayal of women's lives.

I went to Shenzhen this time to film a story about Huizhou women, created by Shu Yuzhai and played by Xiao Wen, which aims to show the impact of arranged marriages in China's feudal society on women's physical and mental freedom. Robbery and mental abuse.

Huigu

A traditional Huizhou woman

A woman who has not escaped her fate

A few years of private school

She is smart and knows a lot of words

It is a virtue for a woman to have no talent

She read a book for the last time before getting married

I don’t know how old the groom is

Huigu gradually fell into deep thought

Beautiful longings

From the stories in the book that touched her time and time again

Can’t help but smile shyly< /p>

Boldly guessed the groom for herself

But

the groom escaped from the marriage

Her various guesses

became illusions Dream mirror

Love

Ancient and illusory love

It was buried forever

The cold moon welcomes the window

The broken lamp shines on the wall

Cold wind and bitter rain

Looking through the autumn water

A life destined to wait

A life destined to wait

She prayed

Prayed every day

Hoped

Hoped that the groom she had never met would return soon

However

Accompanied by her prayers

It is still the endless loneliness of the courtyard

Reciting sutras every day

In a trance

She smiled

The groom came back

Give her an affectionate hug

And tell her his regret about running away from the marriage

Happiness The moment it burst like a bubble

She held the prayer beads tightly

Like a drowning person holding on to a life-saving straw

Leaning on the door every day

p>

Weak and desperate hope

Double door locked

Rust for centuries

All dreams

< p>In a desperate accident

Sadly broken

In the ancient wasteland

Only a desperate smile is left on the lips...< /p>

Story description:

A traditional Huizhou woman naturally accepted the feudal arranged marriage. Because she had read books, had some knowledge, and was intelligent, she was influenced by the love stories in the book. An imaginary love developed with the groom whom she had never met, so at first she was happy, with a shy smile, living in her illusory love.

The groom escaped from the marriage, and she fantasized about getting together with him during the long wait. At this time, her smile was full of surprise, a surprise that was shattered in an instant.

In the end, she was just the eternal victim of an arranged marriage. Eternal waiting was the only way to achieve chastity. All she had left was the desperate smile on her lips, which was left after her spirit was severely damaged. smile...
