Chapter 225: You are a gentleman and like to taste tea

However, the clan is not useless. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Tennyson once said: The heart is as big as the eye has seen.

This complements the well-known saying that the heart is as big as the eye has seen, and the stage is as big as the heart.

Nowadays, transportation is becoming more and more convenient, and it has become very easy to travel.

Speaking of travel, Ye Chao remembered that when he was still in school, he read "Xu Xiake's Travels" and admired him.

This traveler of the Ming Dynasty relied on a pair of feet, and I haven't heard of him having any high-level martial arts or special functions.

Xu Xiake was a geographer, traveler and writer in the Ming Dynasty, and his 600,000-word geographical masterpiece "Xu Xiake's Travels" written after 30 years of investigation is known as "a strange man through the ages".

Xu Xiake has been committed to the Quartet all over his life, and his footprints have spread throughout 21 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions.

Reach the unknown, explore the unknown", where you go, explore the secluded and seek secrets, and keep a travel diary, record the various phenomena, humanities, geography, animals and plants and other conditions observed.

He once said that the great husband should face the blue sea and the twilight."

Xu Xiake was born with a quirk, and wanted to go out to explore the mysteries of famous mountains and rivers, and wanted to paint the world's famous mountains and rivers as a general ambition, but because of his elderly mother, he couldn't bear to make the trip.

Xu's mother is open-minded and reasonable, compared with her father's "purity of ambition [7]", her mother's "diligence and concept" has a more direct impact on Xu Xiake.

In the thirty-sixth year of Wanli (1608), the twenty-two-year-old Xu Xiake finally officially traveled. Before leaving, he wore the travel crown made for him by his mother, carried simple luggage on his shoulders, and left his hometown. From then on, until his death at the age of fifty-four, most of his time was spent on travel and investigation.

He is not only a traveler, but also an adventurer.

Who said that there are no adventurers and no travelers in China, isn't Xu Xiake just that? While increasing his knowledge, he also left a valuable "Xu Xiake's Travels" for future generations.

There is an old proverb that says: the fool is lounging, the wise man is traveling.

In fact, travel is not about how far you go, but about how much you see and how much you understand. To be happy while traveling, you must first be happy.

However, when you have seen enough and are tired of walking, you will sing an old ballad - nowhere is better than home.

Now, Ye Chao is going home.

Although there is a Tang Ru in the family, the family looks at each other, with a sweet smile on their faces, and they are heart-to-heart with each other, so that every corner of the family is sprinkled with joy, and there is the most true and blunt love here.

The comfort under the shade of the trees, the leisure under the eaves, the most beautiful scenery in the eyes, and the best books in the heart.

In short, no matter how far you go out, you have to go home.

Ye Chao went home, although he is very rich now, he still lives a peaceful life. I didn't go to spend all day drinking, I didn't wrap dozens of beautiful women in bikinis around me like foreign riches, and I enjoyed them at any time.

He didn't even change the villa, and still lived in the villa that Ye Yingzhi bought for him more than ten years ago.

It's just that now he is raising flowers in the yard.

It's not that he likes flowers so much, Ye Chao just wants to stay at home in the future and not make life too monotonous.

When all kinds of flowers and trees were sent to Ye Chao's door from different suppliers from all directions, Ye Yingzhi and Li Xiaoxi were stunned.

Tang Ru walked out with a wine glass in his hand, smiling faintly, full of interest.

She was wondering what Ye Chao meant.

Actually, Ye Chao didn't have any special intentions, but he wasn't completely without intentions, he hadn't raised flowers before, and he wouldn't raise flowers.

However, this does not prevent him from raising flowers, he wants to make life a little more fun, and change a little bit every day. After all, people who have experienced death threats will cherish life more than ordinary people and cherish every day of life.

People say that raising flowers is pleasant.

Raising flowers is a hobby of human life.

Actually, Ye Chao didn't feel that he was so elegant, he just wanted to make this courtyard a little more angry and energetic.

China is a country with a long history and a deep traditional culture, and even planting a tree in the courtyard has its meaning.

Ye Chao doesn't know much, but he likes to read when he was in school, and he knows a lot.

Flowers and trees are planted in the garden, and the rich and noble people are very particular, that is, the so-called: "the flowers are rich and rich, and the hall is full of gold and jade".

The flower of wealth, peony is well-deserved, "gold" refers to forsythia, "jade" is magnolia, "tang" is begonia, especially in the past, it refers to Xifu begonia.

The peony has been the national flower of China since ancient times, and the national flower platform in the Summer Palace is the peony garden, and for a long time in the past, peonies could only be seen in royal gardens or monasteries. It can be said that it is a plant that is so rich that only the royal family.

Now, there is not so much attention, Ye Chao planted these four things in the courtyard: peony, forsythia, magnolia, and begonia.

In addition, Ye Chao also planted some bamboo, and the bamboo is safe.

Also, didn't the great writer Su Dongpo say: It is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo.

Bamboo is a symbol of elegance and refinement, which is not afraid of the southeast and northwest, and can also become a feng shui shelter forest for the home.

There are many elegant bamboos, such as piano silk bamboo.

The silk bamboo is a cluster type, some are tall, some are short, the stalk surface is pale yellow, and there are green thick and thin lines on it, which is named after the shape of "piano silk".

This kind of bamboo is quite elegant, but well, another kind of bamboo that Ye Chao asked people to pull is not compatible with elegance, that is, Luohan bamboo.

This kind of bamboo does not look elegant, but it has some precious meaning.

Luohan bamboo is also a clumping plant, the stalk is not high, the head is large, the upper body is small, and the head is like a "Luohan" belly bulge, so it is named, and can be used as a handicraft material.

When you see Luohan Zhu, people can't help but think of the couplet of Maitreya Buddha: The big belly can tolerate the things that the world cannot tolerate;

So although the pot-bellied Luohan bamboo is indecent, it has a Zen feeling.

Of course, in addition, Ye Chao also chose a very meaningful bamboo: acacia bamboo. This bamboo comes from Guangdong, like a double bamboo and the difference is big, are born in pairs and opposites, so it is called acacia bamboo.

Of course, like the giant dragon bamboo, Ye Chao can't grow it, and that kind of bamboo can be used as a bamboo bucket after it is sawed. It's too big, it's too scary, it's too powerful, it's not elegant at all.

According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", bamboo is a treasure all over its body.

For example, bamboo leaves, "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: "light bamboo leaves smell pungent flat, cold, non-toxic;

The smell of bitter bamboo leaves is bitter and cold, non-toxic, and it is mainly used to treat aphthous sores, eye pain, insomnia, stroke, etc. Medicinal bamboo leaves are picked in summer and autumn, dried, decocted in water and drunk, and the dosage is 2 to 4 yuan", bamboo leaves are also often used as medicinal porridge.

According to the "Lao Lao Hengyan" compiled by Cao Tingdong, a famous doctor in the Qing Dynasty, it is recorded: "Bamboo leaves quench thirst and eliminate annoyance, people who suffer from heat stroke should use bamboo leaves to hold a hand, a mountain mast, decoction soup to remove the slag and cook porridge with rice, and one or two cups will be cured."

"Multi-energy contemptible, roll back": "Bamboo leaf porridge cures the old man's diaphragm with wind and heat, red eyes and headaches, and turns a blind eye to things. ”

There is also Zhuli.

Bamboo drain is to split the bamboo pole and burn it over the fire to collect the bamboo juice dripping from both ends.

According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", "bamboo lee has a sweet smell, cold and non-toxic. Indications: Storm stroke paralysis, chest heat, relieve boredom, quench thirst, and recover. ”

Modern medicinal chemical analysis has proved that bamboo lee contains more than 10 kinds of amino acids, glucose, fructose, sucrose, callus, cresol, formic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid and other chemical components. Pharmacological tests have proved that Zhuli does have antitussive and expectorant effects.

Bamboo.

Bamboo, is the bamboo after flowering, such as wheat, the skin is green, contains bamboo rice, sweet taste.

"Guangzhi" recorded: "It can be eaten". The "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: "Bamboo is clear to the gods, light and beneficial to the body". "Compendium of Materia Medica": "Accumulation is like a god" (that is, to cure indigestion).

Modern research has proved that the nutritional composition of bamboo is similar to that of rice, wheat and corn, and in addition to being rich in starch, protein and fat, it also contains 18 kinds of amino acids, which is a medicinal dietary resource that can be developed.

Zhuru.

Bamboo Ru is a bamboo stem scraping off the green cortex, and then scraping the second layer of things, also known as "bamboo two green".

"Compendium of Materia Medica": "Light bamboo, sweet smell, slightly cold, non-toxic. Indications: vomiting, warm air, cold and heat, vomiting blood, collapse, stopping pulmonary impotence, treating five hemorrhoids, fetal movement in women. Bitter bamboo ru, the main treatment of heat, blood in the urine".

Bamboo mushrooms.

Bamboo fungus refers to the fungus that grows in bamboo forests, such as bamboo sunflower is a fungus that grows on the bamboo forest ground. Its medicinal and dietary effects have been recorded in medical works such as "Dietary Therapy Materia Medica", "Collection of Materia Medica", and "Compendium of Materia Medica".

Bamboo fungus has a long history, in the past can only be collected from the wild, the quantity is very limited, usually only for the emperor's tribute, now it has been cultivated artificially, its yield and quality have been significantly improved.

There are also bamboo roots.

Bamboo root can also be used in medicine, which has the effect of clearing heat and removing annoyance.

"Compendium of Materia Medica": "Light bamboo root boiled juice, in addition to heat, antidote to fever and thirst." Bitter bamboo root is mainly used to treat heat and poison gas in the heart and lungs. Ganzhu root, safe fetus, and dysphoria after cessation of childbirth".

Bamboo shoots.

Bamboo shoots, many senior foodies know it. It is the young bud of bamboo, not only the tissue is delicate, crisp and refreshing, the taste is delicious, and it is rich in nutrition, it has a long history as a medicinal food resource in our country.

"Compendium of Materia Medica", "Materia Medica", "Dietary Therapy Materia Medica", "Food", "Qi Min Yaoshu", "Tang Materia Medica" and other classical masterpieces are recorded. For example, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" records that bamboo shoots are sweet, non-toxic, the main thirst-quenching, water and qi, and can be eaten for a long time.

Also, bamboo green, it is a Chinese herbal medicine that goes to the fire and cools.

Among the traditional Chinese medicines, there is also a medicinal herb called "bamboo leaf heart", which can cure diarrhea. Extracting bamboo leaves and eating the white and tender part of the bamboo leaf can treat mild diarrhea.

In short, the bamboo does not change the festival, and the flowers fall with a lingering fragrance.

Only people who don't have to run around all day long for life will have such leisure and fun, and before Ye Chao, they would never have such a mood to plant bamboo and raise flowers. I am not in the mood to study the "Compendium of Materia Medica".

Tang Ru suddenly handed Ye Chao a cup of tea and asked him: "Raising flowers, cultivating bamboo, and the small villa is full of fun, do these little things help you to cultivate spells?"

Ye Chao took the cup, a little surprised, this time Tang Ru handed him a tu, not wine.

"You are a gentleman, you like to taste tea...... Tang Ru said with a smile, in fact, she already knew, but what was handed to Ye Chao before was always wine.
