    [1] "The Analects of Confucius. Gongye Chang" Confucianism

    The son said:

    "Dead wood cannot be carved,

    A wall of dung cannot be destroyed!

    Yu Yu and He Zhu?  "

    As soon as Ji Xu walked into the living room, he saw that everyone was smiling, not at all the frowning look before.  Asked in surprise: "What are you laughing at?"

    Zhang Jin said: "Laugh at Mr. Zhou's 'quatrain'."

    Ji Xu asked: "Oh~, what masterpiece did Mr. Zhou do that made everyone so happy?"

    Zhang Jin imitated Zhou Da's expression and performed. He pointed to the food on the table and said:

    "Look at the picturesque dishes,

    I wanted to recite poems and present them to the world;

    However, I have no culture,

    Oops, 'Fuck', amazing!  "

    Du Shiniang corrected and said: "There is no 'Oh,', Uncle Zhou just fucked it directly"

    Everyone laughed together.

    Ji Xu shook his head and sighed: "'You can't carve rotten wood, and you can't smash a wall of dung!' For you prodigal sons and prodigal women, what else can you blame?"

    Seeing Qiaoer holding a large bag of medicine in her arms, Du Shiniang said: "Qiaoer, I only paid you ten taels of silver, while Ji Gongzi paid thirty taels of silver. From now on, you can follow Ji Gongzi."  , you too, like Cheng Xin, be a little book boy for Mr. Ji, and serve Mr. Ji well!"

    Qiao'er said: "I will, but this medicine is not thirty taels, Mr. Ji spent sixty taels for me!"

    When Du Shiniang heard this, she was surprised and asked: "Why are you still raising the price? Isn't it only thirty taels of silver for a pair of medicines and three courses of treatment?"

    "Not one set, but two sets."

    "Why do you need to buy two sets? Didn't you say that one set can cure you? Why, you are infected all over your body?"

    "No way, Mr. Ji even bought a pair for my mother!"

    "Your mother? Your mother is also sick?"

    "yes!"

    When Du Shiniang heard this, she scolded: "You said you cheated like this at such a young age. You can't catch someone butchering someone! Do you know how difficult it is for Mr. Ji to save the money?  ? This is all his belongings, and this is also the money he used to go to Beijing to rush for the exam. If you do this, you will not delay his future!"

    Qiao'er was scolded by Du Shiniang, and her face immediately turned red to the base of her neck.

    Ji Xu said: "Miss Du, stop scolding Qiaoer, Qiaoer is a good girl"

    Du Shiniang scolded Ji Xu again, "You too, why don't you know who is good or bad? No, the money was cheated by him, and he said he was a good liar!"

    Ji Xu laughed dryly twice, and said, "Don't worry, listen to me first"

    Zhang Jin hurriedly smoothed things over and said: "Brother must be tired after walking such a long distance. Sit down first, have some food, let's sit down, let me pour you a glass of wine, drink a glass of wine, and take a rest"  He said to Qiao'er again, "Don't hold your medicine, no one will snatch it from you. Put it there, and you can go to the kitchen to eat."

    Qiaoer looked at Ji Xu.

    Ji Xu said: "Go, Qiaoer. After dinner, I'll send someone to take the medicine home with you."

    Qiaoer put the medicine on the table against the wall, and went out to the kitchen.

    After Ji Xu sat down, he picked up the wine.

    Zhang Jin grabbed the wine glass and said, "Eat first."

    Ji Xu picked up a "gold and silver steamed bun" and ate it, and said, "Qiaoer is indeed a good girl. Her parents wanted to sell her, but she didn't hold any grudges. After I bought her ointment, she insisted on  Sending it home for her mother to use. She also said that she was young and could bear the itchingHow can such a filial girl live up to her filial piety? I went back and bought a pair for her mother"

    Du Shiniang said: "How do you know that his parents are really going to sell her? Maybe they made a plan with them to get your money! I've come to think of it now, if her parents really want to sell her  , just send her to the brothel, why bother selling her in the grass market?"

    "You women, you always think too much!" In fact, Ji Xu also understood that Du Shiniang couldn't see himself being nice to other women.

    "A lot?" Du Shiniang asked, tilting her head.

    "Not much?" Ji Xu also tilted his head to tease her, "After I bought the medicine for Qiao'er, I hoped that she would take the medicine home and be reunited with her parents. But Qiao'er refused desperately and insisted on following me  .¡±

    "It's not that I have fallen in love with you, a handsome guy, and want to be your concubine."

    "Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense, he is still a child."

    "Huh, child? You know, the little girl nowThe pulse is weak on the upper part, the face is scorched, and the hair starts to turn white.  "Qiqi" Ren meridian is empty, Taichong meridian declines, Tian Gui is exhausted, and the tunnel is blocked, so the shape is broken and there is no child." This is the end of a life cycle.

    (2) Origin of Section Name

    Qixi Festival: July 7th, known as "Qijie's Birthday", is called "Qixi Festival" because the worship activities are held on the evening of the seventh day of July (at night, it was called "Xi" in ancient times).

    Double Seven: The sun, moon, and day are all seven, so it is called and weighs seven.

    Fragrant Day: It is said that when the cow girl meets on the Qixi Festival, the Weaver Girl will dress up, apply makeup and powder, so that the sky is full of fragrance, so it is called.

    Week: The two stars of Cowherd and Weaver Girl are located in a special position, and they can only meet once a year, so this day is called Week.

    Begging for Skills Festival: It gets its name from the custom of "begging for cleverness" in "Seven Sisters' Birthday".  July 7th is Seventh Sister's birthday, and "Qiqiao" is one of the important customs of "Seventh Sister's Birthday", so it is also called "Qiqiao Festival".  According to folklore, Seventh Sister is a weaving expert in the sky.  In the old days, beauties "begged for cleverness" from Seventh Sister, begging her to teach her ingenuity; in fact, the so-called "begging for cleverness" was just "fighting for cleverness".

    Women's Day: The Qixi Festival takes girls worshiping immortals and begging for cleverness, and Saiqiao as the main festival activities, so it is called Women's Day, also known as Girl's Day and Maiden's Day.  It is an exclusive festival for beauties in traditional Chinese festivals.

    On this night, girls not only beg for skillful hands from Zhinu, but also beg for a good marriage.  In the past, marriage was a lifelong event that determined the happiness of a girl's life. Therefore, infatuated women in the world would pray to the stars for their happy marriage on the night of Qixi Festival.

    Lan Ye: The seventh month of the lunar calendar was called "Lan Yue" in ancient times, so Qixi Festival is also called "Lan Ye".

    Niu Gong Niu Po ??Day: In Vietnam, the main body of Tanabata celebrations is the Chinese, and Qi Xi has another name called "Niu Gong Niu Po ??Day".

    Children's Day: Because the customs such as begging for cleverness and begging for text are mostly performed by girls and boys, it is called it.

    Needle-threading Festival: Because there is a custom of threading needles on this day, it is called.

    Daodela: The Taoist "Emperor Zhidao Taiqing Jade Book" states: July 7th, named Daodela, on this day the five emperors will meet in the western Qiqi Sutian.

    Chinese Valentine's Day: Through historical development, Qixi Festival has been endowed with the beautiful love legend of "Cowherd and Weaver Girl". Because it has been endowed with connotations related to love, it has become a festival that symbolizes love, and is considered to be a very romantic tradition in China.  The festival has even produced the cultural meaning of "Chinese Valentine's Day" in contemporary times.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
