猇亭,我心中无法割舍的乡愁
阎友新
May 15th, 2020
季节轮回的风,缕缕都是动人的诗组;孤独南飞的雁,化作天边绚丽的风景;冬日纷飞的细雨,缠绵得让人伤感;久盼的夕阳,未能红遍西边的云彩。街边的落叶,片片飞舞,旋转着,呢喃着,宛如即将背囊归乡的游子。
傍晚去上东都国际广场,巧遇两个喜欢陶笛的孩子,久石让的《天空之城》和宗次郎的《故乡的原风景》被他们忧伤而含蓄地演绎着。委婉的笛音弥漫在空气中,迂回萦绕,反复撩动着我心灵深处的平静,隐约的婉转和沧桑悠扬的笛声唤醒我对故乡风雅猇亭的迷恋不舍,每一个回旋的音符看似随意不经,却又如此纯净苍凉,思绪随之飘向远方。
我的故乡在猇亭区古老背街道云池港,这里唐风孑遗,宋水依依,烟雨江南,碧玉清凉;这里满眼的绿野,原汁原味,就像天然的调色板,斑斓绚丽;这里古朴归真,以传统的三合院、四合院为主,门前的抱鼓石,门枕石,门楣及照壁保存完好,是难得一见的中国历史文化遗产群村落。而我家位于长江江畔一侧,是一个很不起眼的小村落,默默无闻,不争春来不争香,如同安详的老人静默在河旁,看流云飞过,看日落西山。
我家在小路一侧,靠近江边,单独而建,屋前屋后都有一个小四合院子,父亲在家的时候,会修整得很整齐,院子角落种上几棵橘子树。墙角下面是一片小竹林,山风拂过,竹叶婆娑,哗哗哗哗地,甚是悦耳。一个小水塘就在后院下面,阳光投影时一片金黄,偶尔几条小鱼跳出水面冒个泡,那“咕咕”的声音让我感怀至今。南边的墙角依田而建,一条小溪流日夜叮咚不停,那溪水带点甘甜,可以和着谷子酿酒,可以和着春芽煮茶,口渴俯身就可以畅饮……
孩提时的我喜欢带着家中的小黑狗,跑到村西边的爷爷家。小黑去找老黄狗、小花狗它们晒晒太阳、抓抓耗子,而我喜欢和附近的一帮孩子在田野里上蹿下跳,不时地惊飞一窝小鸟,然后在炊烟四起的时候,在母亲们悠长的呼唤声中,或顿足而逃,或慢慢踱步而归,或相互追闹,各自回到昏黄而温暖的灯光下。再抱着一个大碗,坐到道地中间的石墩上,听白发爷爷讲家国大事,听黝黑壮实的邻家大叔讲庄稼长势。有时月上东山,身形消瘦的爷爷喝多了,呵斥奶奶的声音就会在院落上空喋喋不休。
爷爷好喝酒,每天早上起来我都要拎着小酒壶到马路边的供销社里帮他买二两散装的土制白酒,每次看到那一勺子酒倒进壶里,我总觉得倒进去的是爷爷的快乐。爷爷的温柔只对嫡孙我一个,比我大一岁的表哥则曾经被爷爷拎着棍子撵着赶。
“闭月藏云遇鸡鸣,晨露敲窗在五更。几缕炊烟砖瓦上,妇孺灶前煮粥忙。路有长者牵牛早,溪边自有洗刷笑。红阳半遮东山头,儿童背包去学堂。”晨雾初散,忙着农田的大人早已出门,背着书包去学校读书的小伙伴们,相互串门同去,而我则由上过几年私塾的爷爷代管启蒙。“天地玄黄,宇宙洪荒。日月盈昃,辰宿列张——” 虽然不是很明白这些语句的意义,但我还是按照爷爷的方式摇头晃脑地背诵着。“天对地,雨对风,大陆对长空。山花对海树,赤日对苍穹——”爷爷心情好的时候,会给我讲解李渔的《笠翁对韵》,那时的我一直以为是李渔编写的教材。某个冬日午后,阿黄眯着眼趴在台阶上打着瞌睡,给我讲完郑庄公掘地见母故事的爷爷懒懒地躺在竹椅上。正在给他敲腿的我听到一阵鼾声传来,只见爷爷手中的线装书已滑落在地上,扬起几丝尘土。我轻轻捡起,连蒙带猜,才辨认出这本文字复杂、整个竖排的书名叫《东周列国志》。我把书往爷爷手上悄悄塞回去的时候,爷爷睁开了有些昏花的双眼,咳嗽两声后,继续开讲郑庄公如何假命伐宋。
空气中掺杂着牛粪的味道,摇着尾巴的阿黄贪婪地嗅着乡村的气息,几只清闲的大白鹅挪着肥大的屁股,呱呱地叫着,似乎在向人们炫耀着她那肥胖的美丽。未到学龄的我在爷爷强烈要求下,被送到离家7里开外的邻村读小学。那是奶奶的娘家,教书的舅公没多少时间关心我,只能由太婆来照顾6岁的我。太婆年逾八旬,神智已不太清楚,那个冬日傍晚,她早早地自己一个人吃好饭,然后把门锁上昏沉睡去。已经伸手不见五指的黑,呵气成霜,而舅公还在猇亭区里开会,不曾回来,我一个人缩在门口的柴火堆里,冷并饿着。隔壁那个女同学潘书凤发现了我,让她爸妈为我煮了一碗好香好香的面。现在我还记得那面的香味,还记得她穿着红色碎花棉袄,笑起来像铃铛晃动,不知小小的她现在何方,是否安康?
被遗忘过的我,不管爷爷怎么劝说,再也不肯住在太婆家,宁可每天早上天不亮独自一个人去学校,傍晚再从学校走回家里,晨昏黑白,山野的鹰隼伴过我,早起的野兔看过我,一天又一天。
因为生存和生活,我现在飘在宜都市市,但我的根在猇亭区,在梦回千百次的长江江畔。
今年春季回家祭祖时,行走于村间,富足和闲适的气氛弥漫着这古老的山村。人在剡溪,若有领悟:所谓桃源,既非镜花水月,亦非野鹤闲云。原来,心安无防,才是桃源的真意。偶遇年近九旬的钱阿公,他点起一根烟后,看着那丝丝青烟,叹了一口气,“你爷爷如果还在,应该九十了,那时的他是村中的一把好手啊,也最宝贝你了。”我闻之不禁潸然泪下,爷爷和奶奶都离去好多年了,关于猇亭的故事越飘越远。歪脖树下的琴声断了太久,仅有那株老樟树依旧俯身亲吻着江水。
夕阳酷似谁的眼?水里的星光还是沉默不语。月上东山头,回到萍水河的我邀人对饮,举起酒杯,却放不下离愁。
弯弯一镰在天,地下几曲悠悠谁来和?或你,或我,或归人。

Fabulous, what a blog it is! This weblog gives helpful
data to us, keep it up.
Here is my web-site; Royal CBD
magnificent points altogether, you just gained a new reader.
What would you suggest about your publish that you simply made a few days in the past?
Any sure?
A person essentially lend a hand to make seriously posts I would state.
This is the first time I frequented your website page and to this
point? I amazed with the analysis you made to make this particular put up incredible.
Magnificent task!
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my
own blog and was curious what all is needed to get set up?
I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty
penny? I’m not very internet smart so I’m not 100% sure.
Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Hi, welcome! Starting a blog could be fairly easy without much technical background needed. You can try following a WordPress tutorial online or YouTube. It is entirely free with many templates ready to go. Other services like Squarespace are very none-technical user friendly with beautiful layouts but it comes at a cost.
What you said made a bunch of sense. However, consider
this, what if you were to write a killer headline?
I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your website, however suppose
you added a post title that makes people desire more?
I mean 猇亭,我心中无法割舍的乡愁 – Qi Vogue
is kinda vanilla. You might peek at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they write news headlines
to get people interested. You might add a video or a picture or two to get readers interested about what you’ve written.
In my opinion, it might make your posts a
little livelier.
Feel free to surf to my web blog; Tegan
Thank you for your suggestion, we will look into it. This is a piece of contestant story from our recent writing contest, so we refrained from changing the title and contents.
A beautiful replica watch.
beautiful, but due to the strap being silver it slides and doesn’t stay in place.
