Li Zhongxin chose a ground food with meaning for everyone in the big steaming drawer, and while eating, he led Masako Mitsui and the others out.

Li Zhongxin said as he walked: "At this time on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, in addition to having to make the face hair, there is also a custom here that is" applique flowers.

The so-called applique is to post New Year's pictures, window flowers and various god codes.

What about this thing! There are also allusions, our Chinese ancients took peach wood as the wood to ward off evil spirits, and the "Classics" said: "The peach, the essence of the five trees, so the one who suppresses the evil spirit." "In the fifth dynasty, the Later Shu monarch Meng Changya was good at literature, and he ordered someone to inscribe the peach charm every year, which became the indiscriminate use of appliqués in later generations.

On our side of our family, people send New Year's pictures to our family every year, including the New Year's pictures from Wuqiang, Hebei, and the kind of New Year's paintings that my mother likes. ”

Li Zhongxin's finger pointed to the doll on the screen, and began to explain: "

The doll on the New Year's painting is "childlike Buddha body, playing martial arts", holding a carp in his arms and holding a lotus flower in his hand, what about this! We Chinese take its homonym, and it is called more than one year in a row.

"More than one year in a row" is a timeless folk aesthetic culture, which makes the ultimate display of the auspicious concept and "Fu" culture in traditional Chinese folk customs.

The image of this doll has significant traditional Chinese folk aesthetic characteristics. The doll's face is round and soft, her cheeks are rosy, her eyes are large and bright, and her eyebrows and eyes are smiling, which makes her look radiant and full of joy.

The clothing ornaments are slightly rich and gorgeous, giving people a sense of great fortune and nobility. The overall shape of the doll is cute and cute, which makes people feel love at a glance.

The image prototype of the doll is a baby image. The infant is an image that evokes a sense of pleasure, and it points to the collective unconscious idea that "human beings are originally good". The baby archetype permeates the vast life atmosphere of time and space from ancient times to the present, which is the remedy and confrontation of the Chinese folk against the lack of infant concepts in the traditional mainstream culture.

However, this doll is not purely equivalent to the image of a big-headed doll in the general sense, from the huge earlobes of the doll on the picture, as well as the casual and lazy sitting posture, this is clearly a "Buddha" body.

The combination of "childlike face" and "Buddha body" not only represents the continuation of the race, the hope of a family and race, but also indirectly contains a certain "god" worship, hoping that the light of the Buddha will shine and live a happy life.

What about this! It can be said to be a microcosm of Chinese culture. We Chinese, especially traditional Chinese women, like this image of a child the most, and they feel that such a child will bring them blessings. ”

"Wow, just such a doll, you say so much, listening to you say this, how can I have a feeling that Chinese traditional culture is so powerful?" Haruko listened to Li Zhongxin's explanation and said exaggeratedly.

For a Japanese girl like Haruko, it is rare to hear such an explanation of Chinese culture, especially Haruko is very fond of Chinese culture now.

Although Haruko's Chinese culture classes are not less, and she can simply say some Chinese, but she really doesn't understand China's broad and profound things, like Li Zhongxin explained so much, she just has a feeling that Chinese traditional culture is so powerful.

"Faithful! The significance of this New Year's painting is so great, why haven't I heard anyone say it before? Masako Mitsui asked lightly.

Although Masako Mitsui knows that Chinese culture is broad and profound, she doesn't remember that a New Year's painting can say so.

Wang Bo and Yang Panpan's eyes lit up at this time, they didn't expect that more than one New Year's painting would be like this by Li Zhongxin, and it would fool these Japanese friends.

The eyes of the two of them looking at Li Zhongxin have changed a lot, and they can't understand Li Zhongxin anymore, how can they say so many things, how can they talk nonsense so openly, and make people believe it.

"Aunt Masako, don't you know that our China has a history of 5,000 years of civilization, and our traditional Chinese culture is broad and profound, which is not found in any country in the world.

This Chinese New Year invites you to come to Jiangcheng, one is to prepare for you to have a fun time here, and the other is to introduce you to our traditional Chinese culture. Li Zhongxin explained to Masako Mitsui with a smile.

Although the Japanese attach great importance to their national culture, their national culture is far from that of China, and it is not of the same grade at all.

What about Li Zhongxin! There is even an idea that he wants to let more friends from all over the world know China, like China, and promote some things in China through these cultural and other exchanges.

Seeing that Masako Mitsui didn't make a sound, Li Zhongxin continued to point to the lotus flower in the New Year painting and said: "The lotus flower painted on this New Year painting is an important representative of traditional Chinese auspicious imagery.

It is widely found in the eight auspicious patterns of Buddhism, the eight immortal patterns of Taoism and the auspicious patterns of folklore, implying auspiciousness, nobility, many sons and many blessings, and has a deep and wide folk aesthetic culture. In the eight auspicious patterns, the lotus flower is referred to as the flower, which is a metaphor for the holiness of Buddhism like the fresh fragrance of the lotus, which guides sentient beings to get rid of dirt with a refreshing fragrance.

The dark eight immortal pattern is a pattern composed of the eight Taoist immortals, among them, the lotus flower refers to He Xiangu, as the only woman in the eight immortals, her country is beautiful and youthful, like the lotus in her hand as elegant and refined, becoming the embodiment of holiness and beauty.

The flowers of water, land, grass and trees are very lovely. Jin Tao Yuanming loves chrysanthemum alone. Since Li Tanglai, the world loves peonies very much. To love the lotus out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons, straight through the outside, not vines and branches, fragrant far and clear, pavilion net planting, can be seen from a distance and can not be blasphemed.

It is called a chrysanthemum, and the recluse of flowers is also; Peony, the rich and noble of flowers; Lotus, the gentleman of flowers. Belch! The love of chrysanthemum is rarely heard after pottery; The love of the lotus, who is the giver? The love of peony should be everyone. When Li Zhongxin explained this lotus, he ended with the love lotus written by Zhou Dunyi.

In Li Zhongxin's heart, the best metaphor for the lotus flower is to love the lotus and nothing else.

"Brother faithful, what is the last thing you said? Why don't I seem to understand? Haruko asked Li Zhongxin with a confused expression.

Haruko felt that what Li Zhongxin said sounded very poetic, and there was a feeling that she couldn't say it, but she really didn't understand.

Haruko felt that she had to figure out such a powerful thing.
