How many nursery rhymes do you know in Guanzhong area of Shaanxi Province?

(A) children's songs full of childlike interest

These children's songs are mainly about natural scenery or animals. They are humorous, catchy, concise and easy to recite. For example, taking animals as the main body:

Baby monkey carries bricks.

Monkey Baby Monkey Baby moved a brick and hit his toe. Baby monkey, don't cry, I'll marry you a flower daughter-in-law. Marry daughter-in-law Ada to sleep? Sleep in a cow's manger. What are you playing? Unfold the dustpan. What are you reporting? Cover with a sieve. What is a pillow? The pillow mallet rolls, and the monkey wife sleeps soundly.

Shi ba Niu Deng branch

Shit, the cow is on. Point it out, sir. Mr. Liu calculated the divination and worked out the black baby. Heiwa knocked Gong unconscious and knocked her grandmother unconscious. Her grandmother grinds rice and grinds her daughter out. Her woman scraped her brother out of the pan. Her brother went to the cupboard and walked out of Tabo. He grinds the field and grinds out the yellow wolf. The yellow wolf dug up the jujube thorn and dug up his sister-in-law.

"Ada" in Shaanxi dialect means: where. "Shit cow" means shit cow. In the last song, the monkey that most children like is the protagonist, which is very embarrassing in the question and answer. The second song leads to a series of characters with a series of labor movements and thimble rhetoric.

For example, these two songs are all about children's favorite food:

Luoluo noodles

Baskets, noodles, killing chickens, rolling noodles. A bowl for grandma, a bowl for grandpa and two bowls for boys.

Happy New Year!

Happy new year, happy new year, wear new clothes and hats, eat steamed buns and smash walnuts.

There are also topics on natural scenery:

The moon is bright and the night is bright.

At night, the moonlight is bright, open the door to wash clothes. Wash it, beat it hard, send your brother to dress neatly, put it in a steamed bun cage, and visit relatives.

In addition, some children's songs are entertaining, warning children not to run around, to be filial to the elderly and to be ashamed. , with traditional educational color. The following three songs:

Who wagged his tail with me?

Who's with me? Shake your tail and kick it to the bottom of the ditch. There is a wolf under the ditch, scaring the baby to hide in the wall.

Shame, shame, dig your face.

Mimi, go to the kiln

Mimi cat, high kiln, golden hoof, silver claw, climbing trees, catching finches (Jojo), catching finches and feeding them to old cats.

(2) Folk songs that reflect the characteristics and characters of the times.

At the same time, folk songs also express people's perception of the changes of the times and praise, admiration and memory of heroes. Short folk songs, both the praise of the working people to the heroes and the spit, satire and sarcasm to the bad guys, reflect the voice of the people. It is said that although some people have fallen, they will always ride on the people's heads or in their hearts, and some people will eventually be spurned by the people. In addition, some folk songs also describe historical events, which have profound characteristics and connotations of the times. It can be said that small things reflect the big times. For example, the following songs:

Hu Zongnan

Hu Zongnan, that's cruel. He hasn't finished catching Ding's money. If you don't fight Japan, you will lose all the soldiers in the civil war. The task force, the Qing Xiang regiment, wants to kill all the good people. If you want to avoid disaster and take refuge, beat Hu Zongnan up quickly. (circulated in the old liberated areas before liberation)

Liu Zhidan

Liu Zhidan, smart and witty, has a clear understanding of the people's feelings and the enemy's situation. Use clever tricks, set up a maze, pull out the stockade and seize the city. (spread in the old liberated areas)

Alfalfa flower soup

Alfalfa, mixed with soup, Japanese devils died on the (yellow) river bank. Wheat is yellowish and Japan is dead. Cut wheat with a sickle, and Japan is finished.

(3) Folk songs that reflect real life and criticize current disadvantages.

Folk songs are endless in people's soil and spread widely, mainly because they come from life, vividly reproduce life scenes, satirize bad people and evil things, have the function of criticizing the current disadvantages, promoting the evil and promoting the good, and are also a channel for people to express their personal feelings.

This song, for example, vividly describes the life and oppression of the people during the Kuomintang rule with strong contrast.

Masons live in a straw house.

Masons, living in a straw house; Weaver, no clothes; The wife who sells salt drinks light soup. Farmers eat rice bran; Cooking is light and fragrant; Sleeping on the kang; To die as a coffin

There is also a satire on the style of rural grassroots cadres:

The captain gives a word with money, the accountant hangs the money on the account, the cashier puts the money in the drawer, and the members ask the Bodhisattva with money.

The meeting starts at seven, arrives at eight and reports at nine. You speak, I sleep, and talk about the same thing.

The official seal on the paper is bigger than a word from an acquaintance.

There are several versions of the widely circulated "Four Fears Song", but the meaning is basically the same, reflecting the bad style of a few rural cadres in the 1960s and 1970s:

Four fear songs

The wife of the secretary of the township party Committee and the baby of the poor association dare not scold the pony in the trough; And the accountant, his second father and the captain's mother can't be offended.

Another version:

The leader's daughter-in-law is older than the leader's baby. The accountant's father can't get rid of it.

You give advice to the captain and meet again at the meeting; You give advice to the accountant, and I will look at the abacus beads; You give advice to the team leader and do heavy work every day.

(4) Folk songs reflecting the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law

Family relations are always broken and chaotic, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult to deal with. As the saying goes, it is difficult for an honest official to break housework. Therefore, domestic disputes and dissatisfaction with the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have also been compiled into folk songs. Some mothers-in-law complain about their sons and daughters-in-law, while others express their feelings. For example, the old mother complained:

Take off your wife's conscience.

Soft jujube tree, Mao Mao root, breast-feeding, with mother.

Take off your wife's conscience. Coaxed mother into the ditch,

Kick, hum, break the egg, it's yellow,

I'll never see my mother again. (biological mother)

See a daughter-in-law like a dutiful son and an old lady like a leopard. Young daughter-in-law wears materials, while old father-in-law wears condoms.

(condom: Shaanxi dialect refers to rotten old cotton)

Daughter-in-law got married and son ran away. The rice soup is sticky and the grandson is tight.

Spent 2.8 thousand to marry a new neighbor. If you don't meet, you will leave a baby on the ground.

Looking at my son also raising offspring, I think of myself and can't help feeling deeply:

See the child holding his grandson through the window.

I saw my son holding his grandson through the window, and the son hugged his son and kissed him. When he grew up, he forgot my son's kindness.

With the development of society, the family model has also begun to change, and a family of three and four has become a common form. The contradiction of extended family is becoming more and more prominent, facing disintegration, and more and more young people choose to live separately from their parents. For example, the following two songs vividly reflect the separation of extended families:

Divide family property, separate

A family of four, all come to divide the property. The bearded eldest brother got a room;

The second child has a short beard and is assigned to a bowl; The third child has no beard and a donkey's hoof.

Old four loves to nag, so he got a bad brush. Everyone doesn't want mom, pulling pigs in the backyard.

All four are wolves. When they grow up, they forget their mother.

Watapo

Daughter-in-law married for more than three days, and then bought a shakuhachi pot.

It sounds like kissing, but it's actually sharing.

Don't talk when you meet, leave a baby when you go out.

Call mom, she can't row, and she keeps saying she's a baby.

In Shaanxi dialect, grandma is called "Po"

(5) Folk songs reflecting love and marriage.

For thousands of years, love and marriage have been the theme sung by ordinary people. However, in the past, due to the level of knowledge and the status of women, many marriages were arranged by parents, and the words of matchmakers also caused many bitter results. This point is embodied in folk songs. Folk songs mostly reflect the pursuit and desire for marriage autonomy from the perspective of women in the form of complaints. Of course, there are also some sweet love confessions in these folk songs.

For example, these songs tell the tragic fate of the hero, some married in the wrong place, some married the wrong person, some married too old, and some married too young:

The matchmaker is really heartless.

My father loves pecans and sold me to the old doctor.

The table rolled so high that the bench broke my waist.

Half of the rolling pin doesn't have a tooth knife, so I need to burn the leaking bellows.

My mother just wants to sell me, and I'm sad. Who knows?

God knows, I know, and the rest is what I know.

Scold the matchmaker with a rolling pin. The matchmaker is really heartless.

Tell me about this bitch!
