Rural people are smart in simplicity, smart in childishness, and a pair of scissors and a piece of colored paper fly out of the world. You cut a pair of cats, she cut a tiger ... The two are exchanged, which not only meets their own needs, but also contacts the feelings of the villagers, showing their simplicity and enthusiasm to the fullest. It is in this environment that I was brought up by my grandmother day by day. Grandma can be regarded as an expert in paper cutting. Although her eyes are dim, she can cut paper with an unimaginable concentration. No matter what flies in the sky or runs on the ground, it is so light and smart in her paper-cutting. Her paper-cutting, simple and childlike, like Taoist paintings, is clever and free and easy. Because of what I heard, I became interested in paper cutting.
I'm a little strange. Once I know the truth, I will go into darkness in an alley. When I first learned paper cutting, my grandmother strongly opposed it. From a simple understanding, it is useless to say that a boy does this job, but I am stubborn and have been pestering my grandmother. Grandma can do nothing about her baby grandson, so she has to spare some colored paper. Of course, you need a pattern at the beginning, which is equivalent to copying in painting and tracing red in calligraphy. Gradually, I put aside the pattern and let my temperament. This interest continued until I was admitted to the county. Because I am busy with my studies, I have to give up what I want. After more than ten years, I hardly cut it. Even if there is, it is purely accidental.
After work, there is no time. I once attended a colleague's wedding, and when I was leaving to pick up the bride's car, I found a room full of people without the word "hi". I volunteered to solve this problem. Since then, the paper-cut about me has spread around the unit. Therefore, whenever my colleagues do something happy, they will ask me for help. Some bring colored paper, and some simply bring only one mouth. I am willing to do it, which is naturally related to my likes and dislikes. Therefore, I always carefully design and try to change the cutting methods, fonts and surrounding collocation: some dragons and phoenixes are auspicious, some bees and butterflies are Qi Fei, some magpies are noisy, and some are tied together ... all based on the traditional connotation of happy marriage and good luck. When I appreciate my work, I feel a sense of comfort that I have never felt before, such as standing in a vast field and breathing the fragrance of the earth.
I have always been an old-fashioned person, which is of course caused by my personality, but sometimes I play jokes on people. I have a friend who is very active and likes to play tricks on people. I have never suffered from him. When he got married, he naturally asked me for a happy word. I put a paper-cut in which a cat and a dog hug and kiss. These two things are childish and funny. Originally it was just a joke, and I didn't know if the poster was intentional, so I posted this paper-cut on the bedside table of the bridal chamber. It was not until the wedding was over and the bride and groom were flushed that they found themselves really upset. From then on, every time I talked about it, I would laugh and scold.
