Chapter 164 leads the way

After the snow, the earth is white.

It was supposed to be a quiet and beautiful scenery, but because Xiao Li Ersa laughed happily and shattered.

When he got up early and pushed the door and saw a snowfall, Xiao Li Er pulled Li Shou to have a snowball fight, and pulled Li Xi to prevent him from clearing the snow.

Now that he saw Li Jiancheng come out, Xiao Li Er's expression was correct, and he raised his voice and said to Li Jiancheng: "Big brother, are we still practicing today?" It's snowing, and the ground is slippery. ”

When Li Shou heard this, he coughed and muttered in a low voice: "Erlangjun, your excuse is too distracting." ”

Xiao Li Er glanced at Li Shou: "My previous excuses for distraction worked, but I still don't see whether the eldest brother is willing or not." Looking at Li Jiancheng: "Big brother, you said yes?!" ”

After sending Xiao Li Er "hehe~", Li Jiancheng said: "Clearing the snow, I want to have a snowball fight and wait for the practice to be over." ”

After this episode, Li Jiancheng became busy, and he didn't have time to care if Xiao Li Er was a demon again.

The next day will be thirty, and Li Jiancheng is going to prepare to do one thing that leads the trend - writing couplets.

At this time, the couplet is not two peach charms hanging at the gate.

The so-called peach charm is two large slabs made of peach wood, on which are written the names of the legendary gods of subjugation of ghosts "Tu" and "Yu Lei" respectively, to drive away ghosts and suppress evil spirits.

This custom lasted for more than a thousand years from before the Qin and Han dynasties to the five dynasties.

People began to inscribe couplets on mahogany boards instead of the names of the gods who slay ghosts.

It is said that the couplet "New Year Nayuqing, Jiajie Changchun" inscribed on the bedroom door by Meng Chang, the lord of Later Shu, on Chinese New Year's Eve in 964 AD, is the earliest Spring Festival.

After the Song Dynasty, it was quite common for folk New Year's couplets to be hung, so Wang Anshi's poem "Yuan Ri" wrote "thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one" is a true portrayal of the Spring Festival couplets at that time.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, vigorously advocated couplets. After he established the capital in Jinling (present-day Nanjing), he ordered ministers, officials, and ordinary people to write a couplet and paste it on the door before Chinese New Year's Eve.

At that time, the literati also regarded the couplet as an elegant pleasure, and writing Spring Festival couplets became a social trend for a while.

This is the first year since Li Jiancheng crossed over, and the natural meaning is different, and there is a different kind of excitement in his heart.

In addition, Li Jiancheng felt that there were no firecrackers on Chinese New Year's Eve, no Spring Festival Gala, and no more couplets, and there was really no New Year's taste at all.

So, when everyone started to sweep the house, Li Jiancheng used cinnabar to turn the white paper into red.

Then, pick up the pen and start writing.

Waiting for the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, when eating the group dinner, Li Jiancheng took out the couplet and explained his thoughts, that is, the wishes for the year of relatives, which can be regarded as a new New Year's gift.

When Grandmother Dugu heard this, she hurriedly said to Li Jiancheng: "Come and show me, this color is festive." ”

After seeing it, Dugu's grandmother chose one: people live longer every year, and the spring is full of blessings.

Dugu's grandmother asked Lan Xiang to paste the couplet immediately, but the horizontal criticism was really ignored.

Li Jiancheng looked at the horizontal batch, his eyes jumped, and he ignored it directly.

If you can put this word on the door, it will be very face-saving.

I saw that Dugu's grandmother had a first child, and she posted it out, and others came up to choose it.

Don't say anything else, just Li Jiancheng's good hand, hang it at the door to give face to his parents.

What follows:

Shanglian: Splendid mountains and rivers are beautiful

Downlink: Glorious Earth Spring

Uplink: Plum Blossom Herald Letter

Downlink: The spring solstice bird can speak

Shanglian: The wind comes and the flowers dance by themselves

Downlink: Ruixue Zhaofeng year

Shanglian: Qiankun adds spring

Downlink: The sun and the moon increase their brilliance

Shanglian: The green mountains are splendid

Downlink: Green water overflows with spring

Shanglian: The spring breeze is full of flowers

Downlink: Liri shines on a thousand doors

……

They were picked up one after another.

The wind danced by itself, Ruixue Zhaofeng Year, was pasted on the gate by Dou Hui.

The reason is that this is the best written!

Everyone who passed by the Li family to visit relatives would take a second look at the two eye-catching red patches on the gate when they first saw them.

I have to say, this word is really good.

Then when I knew that the words were written by Li Jiancheng, I felt that the family was too rumor-mongering.

But when they saw the beautiful words on each door, they were a little tempted to make such a couplet and hang it in their homes.

And the first one to speak was Li Yi.

Li Jiancheng went to pay New Year's greetings to Li Yi when the New Year passed, and Li Yi asked Li Jiancheng to write him a few couplets.

Li Jiancheng knew that Li Yi was embarrassed and stood up to share the limelight of his family, so he said: "I just thought about writing some auspicious words and taking a happy meaning, but I didn't expect it to be discussed by so many people." ”

Li Yi nodded again and again: "I also know this, I also want to have a good time, anyway, it's not the New Year yet, write quickly!! ”

With the first one, there is a second, but Li Jiancheng can't just write couplets to others every day, so he announced the method of how to reconcile the sand and the sand.

There were some people who had some minds, and after seeing the way, they sold red paper and couplets the next day.

Even if they can afford to spend, they are all surplus people, but in this New Year, the couplet is on fire in martial arts.

Li Yuan returned to Wugong on the evening of the fifth day of the first month, and saw a red paper pasted on the door of many houses, and there was writing on it.

When I walked to the door of my house, I saw such a picture, so I frowned and stepped forward to look carefully.

When Li Yuan saw the words on it clearly, he went up and tore off the couplet.

After calling for the door to be opened, Li Yuan said to Menzi with an unkind face: "Who put such a valuable thing outside the door, it's just nonsense!" ”

Menzi didn't know why Li Yuan was angry, but he still told the truth: "Da Langjun let the post out." ”

Li Yuan was on fire at that time, and he strode towards the Feihong Courtyard where Li Jiancheng lived.

Li Jiancheng was practicing Tai Chi when he heard the footsteps and raised his eyebrows, he was not familiar with this footstep.

So, after Li Jiancheng closed the ceremony, he looked at the door.

Just when Li Xi was about to open his mouth to ask Li Jiancheng what he was waiting for, he saw Li Yuan's figure.

Because, now that Kai has been blackened, Li Xi didn't see it too really, so he took two steps forward to see it clearly.

Li Yuan had already walked over with the wind on his feet: "What's going on?!" When he spoke, he carefully displayed the couplet.

Li Jiancheng really didn't understand Li Yuan's brain circuit for a while, so he said, "Father, what's going on?!" ”

Li Jiancheng imagined the scene when he met Li Yuan, a cheap father, thousands of times, but his brain hole was still not big enough, and he didn't expect it to be like this.

"Such a valuable thing, how can you stick it to the gate, it is someone's business for other people's families to show off their wealth, and our Li family can be so superficial!!" Li Yuanwei's face was not good. (To be continued)
