Chapter 163: Yuan Ri

"'Patriotism', 'harmony', 'dedication', 'friendliness' and 'prosperity and strength' correspond to some of the core values of socialism. Students' participation in sweeping blessings can also strengthen the memory of the core values of socialism. Overall, this modern New Year's custom is also quite meaningful. Mr. Xu said: "The Spring Festival is the most grand festival in China, which has a long history and carries a rich historical and cultural heritage in the inheritance and development. The teacher noticed that the students showed a lot of old customs in the hand-copied newspapers, such as: buying New Year's goods, pasting couplets, making dumplings, greeting the New Year, etc., and everyone did a very good job. Among these works, the teacher also found a hand-copied newspaper combined with ancient poems......"

Mr. Xu's words made Maodou Mao's ears stand up, because his hand-copied newspaper was written under the suggestion of La Dola, combined with ancient poems. Edamame Mao stared at Teacher Xu tightly, and heard her say, "Next, let's ask Edamame to tell you about his works." ”

Edamame Mao hurriedly walked up to the podium, and he excitedly took his hand-copied newspaper from Mr. Xu's hand and opened it to show it to his classmates.

Wow! Edamame is so good at drawing! His hand-copied newspaper has brightly colored fireworks, large fluttering red lanterns, antique buildings and a large table full of Chinese New Year's Eve dinners. Through the picture, the students seem to be able to smell the aroma of the food - the children in the north smell the wheat fragrance of the flower bun, the children in the south smell the sweet and sour fish, as well as all kinds of cured meat and pepper flavors, which is really greedy for the children to swallow their saliva.

But what Edamame wanted to share with his classmates the most was an ancient poem he transcribed in a hand-copied newspaper.

"The name of my hand-copied newspaper is "Yuan Ri", the so-called Yuan Ri means the Spring Festival, the first day of the Lunar New Year. During the Song Dynasty, there was a great poet who wrote a poem to praise the Yuan Day, and I thought it was particularly festive and lively, so I wrote it in a hand-copied newspaper, hoping to share it with everyone. ”

"Edamame, you can recite this poem to everyone." Teacher Xu suggested.

"Okay," Edamame Mao took a breath to relieve his tension and read aloud:

"Yuan Ri"

【Song】Wang Anshi

In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu.

Thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one. ”

While reading this poem, Edamame Mao remembered the excitement that La Dola felt as he walked through the streets of the Song Dynasty where firecrackers roared. From ancient times to the present, the excitement of the New Year has never dissipated. On the occasion of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, the reunion of ten thousand families is the greatest joy.

Edamame Mao also tasted the wine brewed by Tu Su Cao, and helped a little doll replace the old peach charm with a new peach charm on the streets of Xishi. It's a pity that Edamame Mao couldn't bring Tu Su wine and peach talisman out of the dream for his classmates to taste, taste, touch, and take a look, so he could only say dryly:

"Tusu is a kind of grass that people in ancient times used to make wine and drink on the first day of the new year, which has the effect of driving away the plague. There is also a peach charm, which is a pendant made of peach wood, with a statue of a god carved on it, and it can be hung on the door to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. ”

"Isn't that the Spring Festival couplet?" A classmate asked.

"It is the predecessor of the Spring Festival couplets." Edamame replied.

"Okay, let's give the applause to Maodoumao." Teacher Xu proposed.

Edamame happily walked back to his seat, and his best friends were winking at him and giving him a thumbs up all the way.

Only Cai Xiaoyu was still angry, and he muttered unceremoniously: "What Tusu wine, it's hard to drink to death, it's definitely not as good as Coke." ”
