No need to pinch, no need to count, Xuantong is only two and a half years. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It is said that this sentence came from Xijing, and one night there was a comet crossing the east and west at the same time, and a literati surnamed Du saw it and burst out with a sentence: "The comet appears in the east and west, and it has been two and a half years since the unification of the United States." ”

This phrase spread like a plague, spreading from west to east, from north to south, and there were local sayings, but they could not escape that time - "two and a half years".

November of the fourth year of Xuantong...... Or we can put it more fashionably, on January 1, 1912, Xie Huai'an set up a chair in the patio between the first and second halls, and then sat down himself, allowing others to put a white sheet around him.

The seven mansions were all there, and they stood together, but they were silent, Wanxian actually wanted to laugh, but she was infected by the solemn atmosphere, and had to grit her teeth and endure it. Xie Huaian took a deep breath and nodded slightly: "Let's start." ”

Behind him stood a shaver, his hand holding the knife still a little shaky, and he frequently turned his head to look at Xie Daozhong, who was standing aside, but he didn't say a word.

Xie Huaian urged again: "Let's start, master, we have a lot of family, don't waste time, we still have something." ”

Someone snorted heavily: "Long hair was not allowed to keep braids back then, but I didn't expect to be able to hide from the first day of junior high school but not fifteen, but there was a long hair at home!" ”

"That's wrong, uncle," Xie Huai'an said with a smile: "It's short hair, I don't have long hair anymore, and washing can be troublesome to death." ”

Xie Xiuqing walked out on crutches and said angrily: "I still want to take this braid into the coffin, if you have a little conscience, spare your twelve masters' lives, otherwise a pair of scissors will poke me to death, so that I can take this braid into the coffin." ”

The master had already begun to shave Xie Huai'an's head, and when he heard this, his hand shook, and a red bloodshot immediately appeared on his head, and Xie Huai'an "hissed": "Master, light, it's just a haircut, there's no need to shave your head." ”

The master hurriedly hunched his waist and smiled, took a towel dipped in warm water to wipe the blood stain, took out 120,000 points of caution, and scraped it down against the scalp for a long time.

Xie Huai'an said to Xie Xiuqing: "Uncle, what are you talking about, if you want to cut it, you can cut it, if you don't want to cut it, you can do it, our family doesn't engage in 'keep your head without hair, keep your hair without leaving your head', that's what Tartar does." ”

Xie Xiuqing's white beard shook angrily: "Bastard, you just talk to the elders like this?" ”

"No, no, I'm sorry for you," Xie Huai'an laughed again: "Call everyone together today, just to have a new atmosphere in the New Year, cutting braids is not a big deal, the previous dynasty Empress Xiaoqin was still there, I mentioned it, but it was just pressed down, but there is no catastrophe for those who shaved their heads, now that the Republic of China is established, President Sun Da will inevitably order the people to cut their braids, instead of panicking at that time, it is better for us to cut them ourselves." ”

Xie Xiuqing snorted: "Wagging his tail at the new master so soon?" The Qing Dynasty is not dead yet! Beware of horse's fart slapping on the horse's hooves. ”

Xie Huaian was not angry, but said: "There are so many people in the world who cut braids, if you want to wag your tail on this matter, I'm afraid it's too late, besides, the imperial court has already ordered people to cut braids freely in the third year of Xuantong, how can it be said that it is a slap in the back of the Republic of China?" ”

Xie Xiuqing said heavily: "I will never cut this braid, I will ...... it"

"You have to take it to the coffin," Xie Huai'an said good-naturedly: "Then don't cut it, I just said it, I don't have to cut it." ”

Xie Xiuqing punched in the cotton, full of anger and nowhere to spill, but he couldn't be unreasonable, Xie Daozhong didn't say a word from beginning to end, it can be seen that he acquiesced, he paused with his cane, raised his hand to Xie Huai'an, but didn't say a word, so he had to turn the muzzle of the gun and drink: "Everyone in the seven mansions will go home with me!" ”

His three sons immediately followed, and the girls wanted to see it again, so they walked step by step and turned around, and only one grandson named Huaixu was there, quite embarrassed, and changed the sentence during the period: "Grandpa......"

Xie Xiuqing was furious: "Don't go quickly!" ”

Xie Huai continued to work in the Xie family yarn factory, and often had to accompany Xie Huai'an to meet some business friends, those new things heard a lot, and he was eager to try to cut braids, but Xie Huai'an was still dragging that tail, and he didn't dare to cut it off on his own, so it was easy to cut braids together today, but he didn't expect to be disturbed by his grandfather.

During the confrontation between the two parties, Xie Huaian had already cut off all the braids, he stood up and shook the residual hair on his body, touched his bald head and muttered: "It's really a little cold." ”

Wu Xinyi handed him a plush mink hat, he took it and put it on, a huge ball, quite funny. She couldn't help but purse her lips and laugh when she faced Xie Huai'an standing to help him take care of the brim of his hat.

Xie Huaian stretched out his hand to take off his hat, and secretly lowered his voice: "I'll just say it's not good-looking." ”

"Beautiful!" Wu Xinyi hurriedly stopped him: "You don't need to bring it when your hair grows out, and now you have a cold." ”

Xie Huai'an sighed, turned around, Wan Tian saw it, one didn't hold it, and laughed out loud.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at her, and Wan Tian hurriedly waved her hand: "It's nothing, uncle, you continue." ”

"What else to say!" Xie Xiuqing pointed at Xie Huaixu and said, "If you cut this braid today, don't step into the Seven Mansions in the future!" ”

Xie Huaixu was aggrieved: "Grandpa, many people outside have already cut their braids, I followed Brother Huai'an out to talk about business, and we both wore braids on the table, and everyone laughed." It's not a crime, so why don't you see the scissors? ”

Xie Xiuqing sneered: "I said that I can't cut it, but I can't cut it." I want to see whether the government of the Republic of China, which shouts democracy and freedom all day long, will give me the freedom not to cut my braids, or will I cut off my head if I don't cut it, just like the long hair over there back then. ”

Xie Huai'an finally figured out what Xie Xiuqing meant, and couldn't help but look at Xie Xiuda, who had been silent, he stayed in the old mansion in Zhenjiang back then, and had deeper contact with the gang of Hong Thieves than Xie Xiuqing, but he didn't have Xie Xiuqing's fierce reaction today.

Xie Xiuda received his gaze and coughed slowly: "Xiuqing, don't get angry." ”

Xie Xiuqing said: "What, the sixth brother also has to cut his braids?" ”

Xie Xiuda stood up and walked slowly to the middle of the patio: "You don't want to cut your braids because the flood thieves made a disturbance back then?" ”

Xie Xiuqing said: "If the government of the Republic of China really wants to force the people to cut their braids, what is the difference between it and the flood thief? ”

Xie Xiuda laughed: "It's impossible to allow you to keep braids, we are Han, how can we follow the rules of the Manchurians?" ”

Xie Xiuqing didn't say anything, the head shaver was taken aback, and quietly asked Xie Huai'an: "The emperor is full of people?" ”

Xie Huai'an was taken aback by his question: "You don't know? ”

The shaver shook his head into a rattle and asked, "Let's keep this braid, it turns out that it's not the rule of the Han people?" ”

Xie Huaian only felt that the blood in his veins was cold inch by inch, he didn't answer immediately, but took a deep breath first: "Before the Ming Dynasty destroyed the country, the Manchu Qing Dynasty occupied Jiangnan, and ordered the shaving of hair. ”

The shaver stared at him with round eyes: "Kill the head? Just for a hair? ”

Xie Huai'an glanced at him, smiled on his lips, but there was no expression in his eyes: "Back then, Prince Yu slaughtered several cities for his hair, so today the government of the Republic of China will call on the people to cut off their braids, which is to cut off the sign that the Han people are slaves to the Manchus." Such a big thing was forgotten by the Han people so quickly. ”

The shaver looked surprised: "I can't read, and my family doesn't have any literacy, so no one came to tell me this." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly untied the braid wrapped around his neck, squatted down to sharpen the knife, cut off the thick braid and threw it on the ground with a knife, and did not forget to hate and spit: "Let's worship the emperor of the Han people, and the ghost will go to be a slave to the Manchurian!" If you want to kill people for your hair, this Manchurian emperor is not a good thing! ”

After speaking, he took another sip, and when he retreated behind the chair, he looked left and right, and asked Xie Huai'an in a low voice: "Young master, is the Qing Dynasty dead?" If I say so, there won't be a military master who will arrest me and cut off my head, right? ”

Wu Xinyi was laughed at by him, and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, no one will arrest you, we won't talk nonsense." ”

The shaver touched his head and smiled: "When I go home, I will also let my brother cut off the braids!" ”

He was bald with a half-pulled head, and the hair on the back of his head was scattered, which looked quite funny, Xie Huai looked at him steadily for a while, suddenly smiled slightly, squatted down and held the braid he threw down in the palm of his hand, and then walked to the center of the patio.

The courtyard was silent, everyone was looking at him, Xie Huai'an looked down at the braid in his palm, and showed a thoughtful look: "I once heard such a thing, saying that there is a literati in neighboring Korea across the sea, named Kim Zhonghou, who once wrote a letter to Hong Darong, the envoy who visited the Qing Emperor, saying, 'The one who thinks cares about the Ming Dynasty has no Chinese ear, and the servant does not blame him for not thinking about the Ming Dynasty, And blame him for not thinking about China', I have always been unable to figure it out, obviously the Manchu people became emperors, and they still read the sage books of the Han people, and the examination was also the imperial examination left by the Han people, how can it be 'not thinking about China'. ”

He raised his eyes, looked at the clansmen around him, smiled again, and said to Xie Xiuqing: "Uncle remembers how our family became Zhenjiang, the ancestor changed his name, and he only dared to write it on the tablet. ”

"You are free, whether you cut this braid or not, you are free, I said, our family is not happy with the sentence 'head without hair and hair without hair', I only know that the people in dozens of cities in the south of the Yangtze River were unwilling to shave their hair, so they lost their heads." He snorted, "It's not even three hundred years...... The Han people regarded this braid as their own. ”

He glanced at Xie Xiuqing again: "The Hong thief is really annoying. ”
