Chapter 45: Orchids, Tea Ceremony (Revised)

The Xili River splits the county seat of Guyang in half, and many willow trees are planted along the riverside.

The section between the Rising Sun Bridge and the Lang Bridge is the flower and bird market, where Li Changqing came after buying milk powder.

As soon as he approached the Rising Sun Bridge, Li Changqing smelled the fragrance of flowers in the air before he heard the birds.

Li Changqing followed the fragrance of flowers, and the whole street was full of flowers, plants, turtles, birds, fish, insects, etc.

The posture of the orchid in many flowers and plants is beautiful and fragrant, and the ancients praised it as the ancestor of incense, the first fragrance in the world or the fragrance of the king.

According to the "Confucius Family Language", Confucius traveled around the world and returned to Lu from Weiguo.

When he saw the "orchid fragrance alone" in the valley, he sighed: "Landang is the king." ”

Therefore, later generations called "Lan" as "King Xiang", and Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty also wrote "Yongyou Lan" to praise its noble character.

The curvaceous flowers are long and the leaves are long, and the wind is difficult to hide the fragrance in the valley.

Don't be admired because of sewing, even if no one is self-respecting.

The orchid has a graceful appearance, and the leaves are green and slender, and the wind blows, even if you are in a deep valley, it is difficult to hide its fragrance.

Even if it is picked up, it is not willing to be used as an accessory, and even if no one appreciates it, it silently spits fragrance.

The noble and subtle characteristics of being outstanding but not arrogant and vulgar are also the expression of a gentleman's prudence.

Li Changqing walked around the flower and bird market several times, admiring the beauty of different varieties of orchids.

"Fellow, do you want to buy orchids?", a shopkeeper took the initiative to greet Li Changqing.

"Yes!", Li Changqing said with a smile as he looked at the dress of the old farmer in the countryside.

"The water in the orchid is very deep, if you just keep it for yourself, it is recommended to buy some ordinary varieties. ”

"Any recommendations?"

"These pots of orchids and orchids are good, and now it is the flowering period of orchids, and they will bloom as soon as autumn arrives!"

"Okay, help me get twelve of each!"

The space on the wooden shelf behind Li Changqing's motorcycle is limited, and it is already the limit to put twenty-four orchids.

"After I go back, I will look up more precautions for planting orchids on the Internet to increase my experience. ”

After the boss dressed Li Changqing, he didn't forget to instruct.

"Thank you boss for the reminder!", Li Changqing paid the money and returned to Lijiaao with twenty-four orchids.

The two weasel cubs in the cabin were still asleep, and Li Changqing took out a hoe to plant the orchids under the bamboo shadow.

After the twenty-four orchids were transplanted, Li Changqing watered the orchids with some spiritual water.

At dusk, the birds return to their nests.

In the bamboo forest, the bamboo moves with the wind, and the fragrance of orchids spreads far and wide in the hollow valley.

Throughout the ages, painters have poured ink from Lan to give their aspirations, and poets have written poems with words.

Orchid has become a kind of art, a kind of feeling, spirit and realm, a culture rooted in the history of the Chinese people.

Li Changqing set up his drawing board and painted orchids in the sunset.

Accompanied by orchid bamboo, there is fragrance and knots, and bamboo is also indispensable.

The first stroke is in the form of a nail-headed rat-tail mantis belly, the second stroke is a phoenix eye, and the third stroke breaks the phoenix eye.

The middle ink comes out of the flower branches, the light ink dot flowers, and the thick ink dot stamens.

Li Changqing took Zhong Nanshan as the background and depicted the picture of "Yunqi Bamboo Trees are Lush and Orchid Full of Mountains".

The mountain trails are gentle, and the sound of the stream is heard everywhere.

The bamboo is deep and cloudy, and the wood is dry and cloudy.

Lean on the threshold to listen to the birds, climb the cliff and pick different fragrances.

Shaohua is halfway through spring, and everything is thriving.

Mountain trails, streams, bamboo bushes, forests, birds, and orchids are organically matched.

In the whole "Yunqi Bamboo Trees are Very Lush and Orchid Full of Mountains", only the mountain lacks a bit of courage.

Li Changqing looked around the reckless mountains, carefully felt the characteristics of them, and realized.

Use "Yunqi Bamboo Trees are Lush and Orchid Full of Mountains" as an introduction to light dry firewood and boil a pot of spiritual water.

After the spiritual water was boiled, the two weasel cubs woke up from the grass nest.

The little squirrel also returned with a lot of nuts, and looked at the two weasel cubs curiously.

Li Changqing picked up the two weasel cubs from their nests and placed them on the table.

Open a can of milk powder and brew it with boiled spiritual water.

Put it in cold water to cool it down and wait until it is about the same temperature as the surface of the skin.

Li Changqing held the weasel cub in his left hand and the bottle in his right hand to turn on the daddy mode.

Place the well-fed and well-fed two weasels on your knees and tease them with your index finger.

The gray and white cubs rubbed Li Changqing's palms very affectionately, turned over and rolled cutely.

"Let's give you a name, in the future, Xiaobai will be called Huanhuan, and Xiaogray will be called Xixi. Li Changqing thought about it.

The two weasel cubs seemed to understand whether they understood or not, and looked at Li Changqing suspiciously with dark eyes.

The little squirrel jumped from the table into Li Changqing's arms.

Make a 'squeak' sound, declaring your dissatisfaction.

"Do you want a name too?"

"Coo!", the little squirrel cried excitedly.

Jumped into the house, took out a nut and gently touched Li Changqing with the tip of his nose.

"Is the effect of spiritual water improving the intelligence of animals so obvious, it's almost fine!", Li Changqing took the nut and smiled.

Put Huanhuan Xi back in the grass nest, Li Changqing read "The Book of Difficulty" alone under the grass shed.

"The five organs are equal, and the heart and lungs are alone, why not?"

"However: the heart is blood, and the lungs are qi. Blood is proud, gas is guard, and it is called glory and defense. Pass the meridians, camp around the outside, so that the heart and lungs are alone on the beard. ”

The content in "The Book of Difficulty" is much more complicated than "Soup Song", and Li Changqing reads it slowly.

Li Changqing watered the orchid again before going to sleep, and the orchid that had just been transplanted when he woke up was full of vitality.

The entire vicinity of the cabin was shrouded in a rich fragrance, and Li Changqing set off to harvest leeks amid the singing of birds and flowers.

There are more and more people studying together in Lijiaao Primary School, which is quite the trend of the development of square dance aunts back then.

After the audience finished fighting with leeks, Li Changqing went to the chicken coop on Zhongnan Mountain to feed the chickens.

The chickens eat leeks, which are much more agile than those in ordinary chicken farms.

After returning from the chicken farm, Li Changqing boiled another pot of hot water next to the orchids under the bamboo forest.

Li Changqing fed Huan Huanxi milk powder, made a cup of tea and began to read.

And because it was Friday, Li Jiao Primary School only had two classes in the afternoon, and Meng Yuncheng thought about going to Zhong Nanshan to visit Li Changqing.

After turning over the back mountain, I passed through the sheep intestine path with nine turns and eighteen turns, but I seemed to have reached the end of the road.

The faint fragrance of orchids came from the air, and Meng Yuncheng continued to walk forward, and a small wooden house like a paradise appeared.

Orchids are planted under the elegant bamboo forest, and Li Changqing sits on a wooden table and sipps fragrant tea.

"Empty Valley Youlan, the sage is in the wilderness, Brother Li is so elegant!", Meng Yuncheng said when he saw this.

"It's just farming and reading on the mountain, Teacher Meng, let's have a cup of coarse tea together?", Li Changqing greeted.

"Haha, coarse tea and light rice are obsessed with reading, with cuizhu as a neighbor and orchids as friends, Brother Li can be described as a true gentleman. ”

Confucianism regards orchid and tea as the way of a gentleman, Meng Yuncheng picked up the teacup and said with a smile.
