周作人的小品文《结缘豆》写于一九三六年九月,收在作者抗战爆发前的最后一部小品文集《瓜豆集》中。文章从浙东与北京的民俗谈起,饶有兴味地介绍了“结缘饼”与“结缘豆”的来历,以及与之相关的趣闻:旧时北京一些寺庙中年轻的和尚们,常借散发“结缘豆”与妇女们调笑。然后由此生发开去,论及人世间普遍的“缘”即情谊,并进一步引申至写作的态度与文艺的功用这样的大问题。
Zhou Zuoren’s essay, “Clinging Beans,” was written in September 1966 and was collected in the last essay collection “Gua Dou Ji” before the author’s war of resistance against Japan broke out. The article begins with the folklore of eastern Zhejiang and Beijing and introduces with great interest the origins of the “knot-bound cake” and the “knotted beans” and the anecdotes related to them: the young monks of some temples in old Beijing used to circulate “ Fate ”with women to laugh. And then the germinal goes on to discuss the general issue of “fate”, that is, the friendship between the worldly world and further extended to the writing attitude and the function of literature and art.
