Chapter 5, the wind and the moon are in vain, one hundred and four times, spring is like the old, and people are empty and thin

Legend has it that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the plague was rampant, and many people died in the world, and even several miles of cities became empty cities, and the ancients called this great plague "typhoid fever." ”

Zhang Zhongjing, a medical saint, was an official in Changsha, and in the winter of ten years, the weather was cold and frozen, and he saw that the people under his rule were very sick, and even more ears were broken, Zhang Zhongjing couldn't bear it, so he used mutton and pepper as the filling, and the white flour was used as the skin, wrapped into the shape of an ear, and made ""Dispelling Cold Jiao'er Soup".

Sure enough, the people took it, and the single person was warm, but the energy was greatly boosted, and the limbs were warm, and the typhoid disease was cured. The people all remembered Zhang Zhongjing's kindness, and since then, this "cold and delicate ear soup" has also become a "dumpling" that the Han people often eat during the New Year's festival and have been passed down from generation to generation.

The medicinal effect of this dumpling is not magical, and now there is no way to know, but it is delicious but it is a must in the world, but Xiao Liang ate the dumplings wrapped by Xue Niang, and couldn't help but feel refreshed, and he could walk on the ground in two or three days, and his spirit was getting better and better.

This girl is sick and a good person is in spirit, and a person is in a spirit and loves to be busy everywhere, Xiaoliang's craftsmanship is wonderful, and the fried dishes are even more delicious in the world, so she went to the snow lady shop to help, and the business was on fire for a while! This little cool girl is beautiful, and she is playful and cute when she speaks, these two little beauties are busy in the store, where is the business not prosperous, and for a time the business of the Han family restaurant is hot and in short supply.

Gu Yun received Liu Bowen's flying pigeon biography in Lanling, saying that the Jiuding secrets would be deciphered before the year, so that Gu Yun would live in Lanling for a period of time, and there must be news of this Jiuding before the year, so that he could set off to find clues to Jiuding.

Gu Yun has been running around for five years, and he has been sleeping in the open until now, and he has a little peace, so he eats noodles in the Xueniang store every day and inquires about the news of the rivers and lakes. I can still see the evil girl of the Gu family scolding on the street with a face full of poisonous sores and scars, and my father Gu Gui has nothing to do as usual, and occasionally comes to the Xue Niang shop to eat noodles when I see Gu Yun, and Gu Gui can't recognize it.

It's just that there has been a shortage of soldiers for many years, and the Mongols have no time to oppress the people to make a fortune, and the local Mongolian garrison always comes and returns, in exchange.

This Lanling is close to the Grand Canal, and the daily merchants are the biggest livelihood in the town, but these merchants from the north and south also bring news from the south to the north. However, what the people like to listen to the most is the story of the yellow-faced Liu San on the corner opposite Xue Niang's house.

He was born strange, his face was yellow, he always wore a green cloth straight jacket, with a stinky old Confucian scarf that everyone scolded, he thought that he was doing business for a living and did not necessarily have a wife's room, this Jinling and other places were restored by the Han people and vibrant, rich and very.

So Liu San often went down to Yangzhou to Jinling to see some people's customs, and returned to the town to talk about it, and just talked about the appearance of the merchant ships on the Yangzhou wharf, and these rural people listened to it as if they were immortals. His astonishment is a must, as long as he looks at it lightly in his hand, it doesn't matter if he knocks on his table or something else, it can always make a thunderclap sound.

Gu Yun liked to listen to him tell stories when he was young, and now when he returns to his hometown, he is still very happy to see the yellow-faced Liu San's face.

In the early morning of the first day of October, Gu Yun and Xiao Liang went to Xue Niang's shop to help Xue Niang make paper work and winter clothes for her father Han Sanyao. But the ancestor was sleeping soundly in the house, and the sound was as loud as thunder. Xiao Liang hugged Xue Niang, who was ruined and injured at night, and took care of the Han family's food stall with her

Circle. began to sell to the villagers and elders again.

On this day, the morning sun was slightly red, Gu Yun leaned on the big wooden pen tree, and saw the broken wall at the corner of the street, and the yellow-faced Liu San moved the table again and said the previous paragraph.

As soon as there was a shocking sound, the people around the food stall were shocked, but they saw the yellow-faced Liu Sanyi dressed in cloth, skillfully moved his red lips, chewed his white teeth and began to say:

Jinling is full of romance, and the prince and marquis will travel for the first time.

In the painting boat of the Six Dynasties, the people of Qinhuai stayed in the song and dance.

"The Book of Poetry, Feng Feng, July" has a saying "July fire, September clothes" this July, the big Mars set in the west, this day began to turn cold, this September the women in the family began to make winter clothes, to the first day of October, the winter moon came, the people from door to door will be diligent to add winter clothes. Moreover, we Han people regard death as life, so these ordinary people also have to burn a winter coat for their deceased relatives. This is the origin of my Han people's "Winter Clothes Festival"!

A peasant man driving an ox cart said: "Yes! Today, we are sweeping the tombs of our ancestors and burning cold clothes!

Liu San said: "Hey, hey, when it comes to Jinling, it can be very different! This Jinling City is located in a prosperous city, known as the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, since the Qinhuai River has been restored, it is full of traffic, prosperous and lively, the street is beautiful, the things sitting in the car are very rich businessmen, even the small merchants and vendors who walk around the streets and alleys in the breeze and willow bank are also wearing shoes made of silk!"

The common people all knew that this Jinling City was rich and prosperous, but this small merchant and peddler could not dream of wearing silk shoes, and when they heard Liu San say this, they all became agitated, and said one after another: "What! Wear shoes made of silk! This is too rich!" They were surprised, knowing that even some small Mongolian officials could not afford to wear these silk shoes.

Some said: "If you are really so rich! My old man will move to Jinling with his family! Even if you want food, it is better than such a dog's life!"

But he heard Liu San say: "If you want to drag your family to Jinling, it will be even more difficult! This Mongolian has blocked the fortress where the common people go to Jinling, and if you meet the relocation of the whole family, not only will you have to pass the test, but you will have to kill them all!"

"Oh, brother, why is that?" said one.

Liu San said: "It is not difficult to say, under the rule of the anti-Yuan rebel army, they cherish the people and the people's livelihood, and they all support the people, so the people do their best to support them! The displaced people from all directions have submitted one after another, and as soon as this person has a large labor force, this financial and material resources will naturally come up! On the contrary, the Mongols have abused the people excessively, and the common people will naturally either die or run away! If they run to the bottom of the rebel army, they will increase the number of soldiers and the people of the rebel army! In this way, it is better to die all of them! So as long as there are people who have fled to the south, they will all be killed and fall cleanly. ”

After saying this, everyone could not help but lament the tyranny of Mongolia.

But I heard Liu San continue to talk about the grand occasion of Jinling: "And say that the people of Jinling are rich, and the winter clothes festival is naturally different from our poor countryside, they will cut the paper into five colors every day, and make different styles of dark clothes, dark hats, and at night, the people will take them out and burn them for the ancestors, and this burning clothes is also very particular about Lak ~ The new mourners are less white, and those who have died long ago will burn some five-color or red." At night, everyone went to the street to burn the predecessors, and the fireworks of thousands of homes were magnificent

Look!"

Everyone listened attentively, thinking carefully that the Mongols had always opposed the common people's ancestor worship, for fear that these people would remember the stories of their ancestors and be unwilling to be their slaves again.

Liu San continued: "This winter moon is the most important day of the year, on this day Zhu Dashuai of Jinling will not only take the lead in sacrificing our ancestors, but also give many people winter clothes, and make hot soup from the freshly harvested red beans and glutinous rice to the poor people, hoping that the people will resist the cold and spend the winter safely." While people are also adding clothes to avoid the cold, they also give winter clothes to wanderers who are far away from the border, doing business, and studying, in order to show concern and care. ”

This Zhu Yuanzhang's practice of the Winter Clothes Festival seems to be ordinary and there is nothing worth touching, but after saying it, the people were tyrannical compared to the Yuan Court, and they actually heard the people with tears in their eyes, and only said that Zhu Yuanzhang was benevolent.

Gu Yun watched the people praise Zhu Yuanzhang's words, silently, but secretly admired Zhu Yuanzhang's good means of attacking people's hearts.

Suddenly, I heard an old man wearing the clothes of a rich man in the township, and scolded with a stubborn face: "Bastard!" This old man, puffing out his mouth, pointed at Liu Sanyi and sold the old man: "Bastard! What is good about this traitor and thief, he will not die well, and he will not be rewarded! How good is my Dayuan court! We are the slaves of the Mongols, and if we do not kneel to work for the Mongolian masters, what do we do that is unconscionable! The life of the Yuan Dynasty is so good, these good days are all given to us by the Great Yuan Court, if anyone opposes the Mongols, my old Gude will be the first to disagree!"

Gu Yun saw that this old man was his indiscriminate grandfather who would only rely on the old and sell the old and put on a show. Gu Yun looked at it and knew that this old man was like an animal to him back then, and he didn't recognize each other.

I think that the ancestor of the Gu family was a hardcore traitor who made a fortune, and followed Zhang Hongfan's subordinates to kill many Han people to get the official position of the Mongols, so naturally they had to follow the Mongols for generations to be powerful and serve as slaves. After a long time, this knee kneeling took root, and it was impossible for anyone to let them stand up.

Although this Gu Yun is a member of their family, he has his own loneliness and suffering, which is very different from their family, so he is judged to be like a cloud.

Old Gude was very stubborn and arrogant, he thought that this Mongolian was the master of the right and incomparably correct and righteous, so naturally he spoke without a trace of hesitation, and even had a kind of pride in faith. But the people are not all fools who have been brainwashed by the Mongols, and a middle-aged man scolds him with his lips: "Old dog, you are so presumptuous! Who doesn't know that your family has taken a Mongolian daughter-in-law!"

Another peasant said: "Your family is a hardcore traitor, and you have gained a lot of benefits from the Mongols!

The older the old Gu De is, and he relies on the old and sells the old on weekdays, and if he doesn't like it at all, he will fight his family, and the servants at home dare not offend him, but it doesn't mean that the villagers are afraid of him! Old Gu De took a crutch to knock people on the head, and the peasant was furious, and he flew up and punched him in the head, and Lao Gu's eyes were black, and as soon as the atmosphere came out, he fell to the ground and lost his breath, and everyone was frightened and fled!

Gu Yun suddenly went to look, but it was too late. Gu De, the man of the year in Lanling, was beaten to death on the street so inexplicably.
