A Brief Introduction of India Tagore's Suba

When the girl was named Su bassini, who would have thought that she was dumb? Her two sisters are called Sukesini and Suhasini respectively. In order to make the names similar, her father named his youngest daughter Sue bassini. Everyone calls her Suba for convenience.

As usual, her two sisters lost money and finally got married. Now the little girl is like a heavy burden, which is on her parents' hearts. Everyone seems to think that she can neither speak nor feel; They casually talked about her future and their anguish in front of her. Since she was a child, she knew that it was like a disaster for God to send her to her father's house, so she always stayed away from the crowd and tried to stay out of it. As long as they can forget her, she thinks she can stand everything. But who can forget the pain? Her parents grieve for her day and night. Her mother, in particular, simply regarded her as her own physical disability. For a mother, a daughter is a part of herself that is more intimate than her son; The daughter's fault is the root of her own shame. Suba's father Barney Kangda loves her more than other daughters; Her mother hates her as much as she hates the stain on her body.

Although Suba has no ability to speak, she does not lack a pair of big black eyes with long eyelashes. What is she thinking? Her lips trembled like leaves.

When we express our thoughts in words, words are not easy to find and must go through a translation process, which is often inaccurate, so we will make mistakes. But these black eyes don't need translation; Thought itself is reflected in this eye. In the eyes, the mind is open or closed, shining or sinking into darkness, hanging like a falling moon, or lighting up the vast sky like a bolt of lightning. People who have no language except the trembling of lips have learned the language of eyes. The expressions in their eyes are endless, as deep as the sea and as clear as the sky. Light and shadow play freely here, at dawn and dusk. The mute has a "natural" loneliness and solemnity. So almost all the other children are afraid of Suba and never play with her. She is as silent and lonely as midnight.

The village where she lives is called Changdipu. The river in this village is very small in Bangladesh. It only flows in a narrow area, like a middle-class daughter. This busy water never overflows, but flows quietly, as if it were a member of every family in the villages along its coast. On both sides of the river are tree-lined banks. The goddess of the river stepped down from her throne and became the flower god of every garden; With quick and cheerful steps, she selflessly does her endless blessing work.

Banikanda's house is by the river. Passing boatmen can see the huts and haystacks in this place. I wonder if anyone has noticed these little girls who represent the wealth of the world. When she finished her work, she slipped to the water and sat there. Here, "nature" satisfies her desire to speak and speaks for her. The murmur of the stream, the voices of villagers, the songs of boatmen, the songs of birds and the rustling of leaves all mingled with her heartbeat. They turned into huge sound waves, beating her restless heart. The whispers and actions of "nature" are the language of Sargam; The words with black eyes covered by long eyelashes are the language of the world around her. From the cicada tree to the silent stars, there are only gestures, gestures, tears and sighs. In the hot noon, boatmen and fishermen went to eat, villagers were taking a nap, birds were silent, ferries were idle, and the vast and busy world stopped working, suddenly becoming a lonely and serious giant. At this time, under the charming vast sky, only the silent "nature" and a silent girl are sitting very quietly-one in the radiant sunshine and the other in the sunshine.

But Suba is not without friends. There are two cows in the cowshed, Sabah and Bangguli. They never heard her call their names, but they recognized her footsteps. Although she can't speak, she whispers lovingly, and they understand that her gentle whisper is much deeper than all words. When she caresses them, scolds them or coaxes them, they know her better than people. Suba often comes to the cowshed and hugs Sabasi's neck. She often rubs her cheek against her friend, and Bangguli turns her big kind eyes and looks at her and licks her face. Apart from occasional visits, the girl comes to see them three times a day as usual. Whenever she hears something that makes her sad, she will come to see her dumb friend at any time. They seem to feel her mental pain from her gloomy eyes. They approached and rubbed her arm gently with their horns, trying to comfort her in a speechless and helpless way. Besides these two cows, there are some goats and a kitten. Although they also show the same attachment, Suba and their friendship are different. No matter day or night, whenever there is an opportunity, the kitten will jump into her arms and doze off peacefully. When Suba touched her neck and back with her soft fingers, she enjoyed her hypnosis very much.

Among advanced animals, Suba also has a companion, but it is difficult to describe the relationship between this girl and him, because he can speak, and his speaking ability does not make them have the same language. He is Gong Sai's youngest son, named Prada. He is a lazy man. After their efforts, his parents thought that he would never have the hope of living independently. But the prodigal son also has an advantage: although his family hates them, he is always welcome in front of others. It became public property because it was not bound by work. Just as every town needs an open space where everyone can breathe freely, a village also needs two or three idle people who can spend time with others. Therefore, if we are too lazy to work and want to find a partner, such a person can be found.

Prada likes fishing best. He spends a lot of time on it and can see him fishing almost every afternoon. So he often meets Suba. No matter what he does, he likes company. When fishing, a silent partner is the best. Because Suba is taciturn, he respects her very much. Because everyone calls her Suba, he calls her Suba to show his love for her. Jimba always sits under a acacia tree, while Prada sits a little further away and puts down the fishing line. Prada brought a little embarrassing sauce, and Suba teased him. I think she has been sitting there watching, eager to give Prada a a great help, really useful help to him, and prove by all means that she is not a useless person in the world. But there is really nothing to do here. She turned and prayed to the "Creator" to give her an extraordinary power, and made Prada exclaim with an amazing miracle: "Ouch! I didn't expect our technology to be so great! "

Think about it! If Suba is a water god, she may slowly float out of the river and take the jewel from the head of the snake king to the ferry. At that time, Prada may give up this worthless fishing life and jump into the Crystal Palace. That was none other than Barney Kangda's child, little mute Suba! Yes, our vegetarian, the only daughter of the glittering king of the treasure market. But maybe not. It's impossible. Not everything is really impossible, but Suba was not born in Patap's court, but was born in Banikanda's home, and she had no way to surprise the children of Gongsai's family. (1) means "underworld".

She grew up and began to know herself. A new and indescribable consciousness, like the tide in the sea, swept her heart at the full moon. She saw herself and asked herself, but none of the answers she got were understandable.

Once, on a full moon night, she slowly opened the door and peeped out shyly. The "nature" in the full moon season, like the lonely Suba, is overlooking the sleeping earth. Her strong and young life impacted her: joy and sadness filled her whole body; She reached the edge of her endless loneliness and even crossed it.

Her heart is so heavy that she can't say it! Beside this silent and sad "mother", stood a silent and sad daughter.

Her marital problems made her father very worried and anxious. People blame them and even talk about getting rid of them. Banikanda has money; They eat two meals a day; Therefore, he has many enemies. Later, women stepped in, and Barney Kanda went out for a few days. Soon he came back and said, "We must go to Calcutta."

They are going to that strange place. Suba's heart was as heavy as a foggy morning, and she began to cry.

The nameless terror accumulated these days made her follow her parents like a silent beast. Her eyes were wide open, searching their faces as if trying to find something. But they didn't say a word One afternoon, while fishing, he smiled and said, "Sue, they finally found a groom for you. You are getting married!" " Don't forget me completely! "Then he concentrated on fishing again. Just like a wounded doe looking helplessly at the hunter, Suba looked at Prada silently and painfully, as if to say, "Did I offend you? "She stopped sitting under the tree that day. Bani Kangda took a nap and was smoking in his bedroom. Suba sat down at his feet, stared at him and burst into tears. Barney Kanda tried to comfort her, and her face was full of tears.

They decided to go to Calcutta tomorrow. Suba went to the bullpen to say goodbye to her childhood friend. She feeds them with her hands; She hugged their necks; She looked at their faces and tears rolled down to speak for her. This night is the night of 10. Suba went out of the house and threw herself on the grass by her dear river. She seems to embrace the earth with open arms-her strong and silent mother. She wanted to say, "Don't let me leave you, Mom. Hold me as tightly as I hold you. "

One day, at home in Calcutta, Suba's mother gave her a beautiful dress. She tied up her hair, tied it up with gauze, and put on jewelry for herself, trying to destroy her natural beauty. Suba's eyes are full of tears. Her mother scolded her severely because she was afraid that her eyes would swell from crying, but her tears kept flowing. The groom took a friend on a blind date. Her parents fainted when they saw the man of God coming to choose a sacrifice.

Before taking her to see the blind date, her mother scolded her loudly in the room and made her cry twice. Adults looked at her carefully for a long time and commented, "Not bad."

He paid special attention to her tears and thought that she must have a gentle heart. He regards this as her strength, that is to say, this heart is sad to leave her parents now, and it must be useful in the future. Like a clam bead, the child's tears only increased her value, and he had no other opinion.

They looked up the almanac and got married on an auspicious day. After giving their Sargam to others, Suba's father went home. Thank god! Their caste in this life and their safety in the afterlife are guaranteed! The groom worked in the west and took his wife away soon after he got married.

In less than ten days, everyone knew that the bride was mute! At least, if someone doesn't know, it's not her fault, because she didn't cheat anyone. Her eyes told everyone, although no one knew her. She looked at everyone's hands, speechless; She misses the faces that she was familiar with since she was a child, the faces of people who can understand the language of Sargam. In her silent heart, she has been crying silently, and only "spiritual seekers" can hear it.

Her master made another careful examination with his eyes and ears. This time, he studied carefully not only with his eyes but also with his ears. He married a talking wife.
