Chapter 283: On the Ancient and Modern in the Purple Bamboo Garden
"Two adults, you go back to the house to rest, I'll watch Zizhu for a while, and then call me Guhong."
"Yes!" The two replied in unison.
"Maybe all bamboos are beautiful, because the bachelor wrote in "Yu Qian Monk Lu Yunxuan" that 'it is better to eat meat than to live without bamboo. No meat makes people thin, and no bamboo makes people vulgar. People are thin and fat, but people are not curable. Others laughed at this, like a high or a fool. If you still chew on this, how can there be Yangzhou cranes in the world. But how can the last sentence be understood? How many generations have these vibrant bamboo forests been appreciated? Looking at thousands of poles, the strength is uplifted, and the bamboo poles are purple and black. Appreciate the leaves, the leaves are always so soft and shiny, that kind of wanton vitality, day and night in front of people's eyes, a little beautiful and a little luxurious! Gu Hong muttered to himself.
Su Zhe brought tea to Gu Hong, and "Hong Girl" thanked the adult.
"May I ask my lord, are these purple bamboos widely used?"
"Miss Huihong, this is an excellent garden ornamental bamboo species, bamboo is tough, suitable for fishing rods, walking sticks and other handicrafts and flute, flute, huqin and other musical instruments. The bamboo shoots are edible, and it has naturally become a 'mountain delicacy' for the locals! Its rhizome can be used as medicine, has the effect of dispelling wind, dispersing stasis and detoxifying, and is generally used for rheumatism and paralysis, amenorrhea, symptomatic fistula, and rabies bite. ”
Where in the world is there such a completely ideal thing as the Yangzhou crane? (Note: Symptomatic disease, the same as "false", usually refers to a benign gynecological tumor, and the hard does not move, and the pain has a fixed place, which is called "symptom".)
The abdomen is lumpy, scattered and impermanent, and the pain is indefinite, which is called "fistula". )
"Sure enough, there are no discarded things in the world, and there are treasures everywhere." Miss Hong said.
"The girl is really extraordinary!" Su Zhe praised.
"Win and win! Your brother Dongpo's poem is called 'irreplaceable through the ages'! ”
"Thank you Miss Hong for your love for Brother Yu!" Su Zhe said politely.
The three of them imitated the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest" and sat on the refreshing bamboo chair gracefully, which can be described as "sitting on the bamboo chair", "talking about bamboo poetry", "smelling the taste of bamboo", "watching bamboo leaves" and "tasting bamboo feelings".
Seeing that it was still early, Gu Hong decided to talk about the past and the present with his old friends, so that the trip was worthwhile, and then said humbly: "May I ask the two adults, how to understand 'If you still chew on this, how can there be Yangzhou cranes in the world.'" 'What?' ”
"I wrote this poem, so let me write it for Miss Hong. Let's take the literal meaning of this sentence first: 'If you still chew on this bamboo, you want to get the name of pure and high, and you also want to get the pleasure of sweetness.' Where in this world is there such a beautiful thing as 'Yangzhou Crane'? Let's talk about the origin of 'Yangzhou crane': according to legend, in ancient times, several people got together and said their wishes: one said that he was willing to be the assassin of Yangzhou, one said that he wanted to be a millionaire, another said that he was willing to be able to ride a crane to travel to the sky and be an immortal, and the last one said that he was willing to wrap 100,000 yuan around his waist and ride a crane to Yangzhou. This man wants to have the desire of the other three at the same time. Later generations will use 'Yangzhou crane' to represent perfect things, things that are completely ideal, and they are also synonymous with 'extravagant hope';"
"Wow! This poem contains beautiful feelings and natural philosophical thoughts, how did it come about? ”
"In 1073, when I was still a general judge in Hangzhou, I liked to make friends with people from all walks of life, and of course, I was everywhere I went. One day, I was invited to my friend Yu Qian's Luyun Xuan as a guest, we didn't have time to taste tea and drink, and began to linger in the green Yunxuan dyed with green bamboo, facing the green path of the green path and friends full of economic charm and elegant Yu Qian's hungry monks, and then thought of the famous 'how can there be no such gentleman for a day' in history, immediately splashed ink, wrote this shallow poem, and asked Miss Hong not to laugh! ”
"Such a brilliant masterpiece, is it still shallow? Then, shouldn't this girl be killed on the purple bamboo? After that, Miss Hong laughed heartily, and the brothers were also so happy that it was difficult to describe it.
"False praise!"
"I can't imagine that once Lord Su, who has a pure heart, becomes humble, no one can match him! Listening to your words, I feel like I'm in the clouds! Jue is too insightful, may I ask if there are any cultural celebrities in history who are obsessed with Xiuzhu? Miss Hong then asked.
"I didn't expect that Niangniang, who has already done the fairy way, is still so active in entering the world and eager to learn, which really makes the old students admire!" Su Shi praised in a low voice but heartily.
"If you don't study for a day, your heart will be empty, as if you have lost the Zen of your life." Miss Hong said seriously.
"Sure enough, 'monk' and 'Tao' have been one family since ancient times!" Su Shi said.
Miss Hong stared at Su Shi, and then "forced" him to think of the girl's question just now, he took a few sips of tea, and said confidently: "Wang Huizhi of the Jin Dynasty is the son of calligrapher Wang Xizhi, he newly moved to a house, and immediately ordered people to plant bamboo with a tiger face, why?" He replied to the people, 'How can there be no such king!' That is, I can't do without the intimate company of bamboo at any time, and you have followed me for many years, don't you understand? ”
"Oh! It seems that the literati and scholars of all dynasties have tempers! So, is there anything more incredible? ”
Su Shi is tired! He looked at his brother, Su Zhe immediately understood what his brother meant, and said eloquently: "Miss Hong, there is a strange person named Lin Kui in the Northern Song Dynasty, have you heard of 'Mei Wife and Crane'?" ”
"I've only scratched the surface of it." Miss Hong said.
"There are many stories about him, but I'll just tell you one or two. Once, a group of officials entered the village to ask for 100 pearls, Xiao Lin Kui on the side of the Shangshan Bridge out of the "white Du white chicken cries day" of the upper link, to the government officials to the lower link, stalemate until dusk when the dog barked, the officials still did not come out, Lin Wei then to 'Huang Xian yellow dog barking dusk' as the next link revealed, retired from the office, and threw 2 pearls into the deep pool under the Shangshan Bridge (that is, the "pearl throwing pool" that remained in later generations).
Lin Kui is young and ambitious, indifferent to fame and fortune, loves green mountains and green waters, and enjoys reading and planting plums. According to legend, he planted more than 360 plum trees in front and back of his former residence, and the money from the sale of each plum was wrapped into a bag, and put it in the clay pot, and a bag was taken every day as living expenses. After becoming an adult, he roamed in the Jianghuai area away from home, and in the second half of his life, he hid in the West Lake, settled in the lonely mountain, still raised cranes and planted plums, and was desperate for his career, and Song Zhenzong had called him to enter the court as a teacher and did not answer the call.
'Wu Shanqing, Yue Shanqing, the green mountains on both sides of the strait greet each other, who knows the parting feelings'. This poem "Lovesick Order" is written about Lin Kui's deep nostalgia for his hometown Fenghua in his later years. ”
"There is indeed a person in the world, before, I thought it was just some kind of legend, so, is his later life lonely and lonely? After all, there are no children under his knees. ”
According to the genealogy, the son of his brother succeeded him as an adopted son, who accompanied him to the end of his life. Lin Kui was able to live at the age of 62, which can be described as 'one time, two more spring and autumn.' ’! ”
"It's a pity that this elegant man has been silent in the starry sky of history, otherwise, I would have been eager to visit, drinking tea and drinking nap in the plum garden that he cultivated with his own hands, and even painting a few plum blossoms in full bloom, and then dancing on a sword, I don't know how happy I am!"
