    [1] "Seven Jue. Waiting for Zi Boudoir" Anonymous

    The boudoir is half-hidden and waiting for the spring breeze,

    The green leaf curtain flowers reflect the red;

    ? Blessed by the God of the Canglong God,

    Who will the daughter-in-law look for?

    Everyone looked at each other and smiled.

    "You man, how can you come to propose a marriage by yourself?" Ji Xu said, "We Han people are not like you Mongolians who like to 'snatch marriages'. Whoever snatches it will belong to him. A woman is a human being, not a lamb"

    "Alas~" Wansheng said, "We in Mongolia don't all marry by robbery, there are also 'marriage proposals'."

    Ji Xu said: "Tell me about it."

    Wan Sheng said: "'Marriage Proposal' means Eqige [father] proposes to the woman for his son. The woman has to decide whether to accept or not through family meetings and other forms. Eqige needs to beg several times.  It was possible to agree just now, and in this way, others will respect him; if he did not ask for a few times, he agreed, and would be looked down upon by others"

    Ji Xu said: "Daughters of the Han family have more rules, and they are particular about their age and daily life."

    Wan Sheng asked, "What's the point?"

    Ji Xu said: "Until the age of twelve, this girl lived with her parents, and she never left her parents' side. If you snatch her relatives in Mongolia, how can you snatch her away? When she turns thirteen, when she arrives  Cardamom Nianhua will be sent to Xiulou."

    Wan Sheng smiled and said: "This yurt is easy to grab, this embroidered building?"

    Ji Xu said: "The Embroidery Building is a small, exquisite and elegant two-story building. Didn't you say that you have seen a similar small building in your husband's house?"

    "Yes!" Wan Sheng said.

    Ji Xu also said: "The steps of small buildings are generally made into two groups. The first group of steps is designed to be thirteen steps, which means that girls need to live in the 'embroidered building' when they are thirteen years old, and 'Tiangui' when they are fourteen years old.  They grow their long hair to show that the girl has grown up and is ready to marry. These women who are waiting for engagement are called 'waiting in the boudoir'."

    Wan Sheng asked: "What 'character' is it? Is it the name you Han people often say?"

    "Yes, and no." Ji Xu said, "The 'character' here generally refers to the eight characters of birth date. We Han Chinese families have children born, and parents have to ask a gentleman to write the child's birthday 'eight characters' on the red paper.  , and keep it in a safe place. When the children talk about marriage, they have to take a batch of "horoscopes" from both parties to see if they match. Girls wait for others to get their horoscopes to discuss marriage.  , it¡¯s called ¡®waiting in the boudoir¡¯.¡±

    Wan Sheng asked: "You Han people, both male and female, have names and characters? When did girls get their characters?"

    "At the time of Jiji." Ji Xu told him, "When a girl reaches fifteen years old, it is the 'year of Jiji', and the Jiji ceremony will be held. Jixu ceremony is very important for noble girls.  ', "Rituals" listed it as the first ceremony in the opening chapter, it is no accident. Ji, that is, hairpin. If a woman is over fifteen years old, if she has married, she will hold a Ji ceremony, that is, she will braid her hair to the top of her head and use it  The hairpin is inserted to show adulthood and belonging. The mother will also tell her who the husband is from, and tell her daughter when the in-law's family will marry. At this time, the elders will find a famous person to take the "word" for their daughter  , is different from the "baby name" called by the parents, and it is also convenient for the husband to call after marriage. This is another interpretation of "waiting for the word boudoir" Master Wan is in the "year of dancing elephants", and when he is twenty years old, he will be weak.  You can also ask your teacher Mr. Shao An to choose a word for you, so that it will be more convenient for us to call you."

    Wan Sheng was only thinking about his junior sister, so he didn't care about his own name, and asked: "If a woman has never lived in Xiulou, and has not held a coming-of-age ceremony, it means that she has never been chatted by her husband's family?"

    "It can also be understood in this way." Ji Xu said, "However, if a woman has been waiting to marry and has not been married, she must perform the 'ji ceremony' when she reaches her twentieth year. Therefore, the second set of steps in the embroidery building has seven steps, and  The first group adds up to exactly 20 levels, which means that the girls will stay in this "embroidered building" for up to seven years. These seven years are not only their "golden age", but also the best time for girls to get married.  "

    Wan Sheng turned around and asked Zhu Aifang: "Miss Zhu, have you ever lived in Xiulou?"

    Zhu Aifang said: "Of course, I am also a lady of everyone, and it was only when my family was in decline that I stepped into the world of mortals."

    Wan Sheng asked: "After living in Xiulou, how do you date a man?"

    "What are you thinking!?" Zhu Aifang laughed, "Once a girl enters the 'embroidered building', it means the beginning of a life of 'not going out of the gate', eating, drinking, and sleeping in this embroidery building."  , the parents will specially assign a personal servant girl to wait on them. The girls who enter the Xiulou have to learn piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and female red, because girls will be the enlightenment teachers of their children in the future. Enlightenment is the key to whether the children are promising;  To learn the three obediences and four virtues, etiquette; [chorus] "Youth and ignorance are too hasty,"

    [Female voice] "I'm on the road of no return with you."

    [male voice] "Last night's dream is hard to stay,"

    [female voice] "It's hard to dream tonight,"

    [Male voice] "You and I are both"

    [Chorus] "It's performing."

    [Chorus] "I don't want to pretend to be confused, but I have to admit defeat."

    [Female voice] "The lost lover, who else can keep it."

    [Chorus] "I have no choice but to pretend to be confused and to pretend that I am very happy."

    [female voice] "The injury hurts in my heart, and tears can no longer flow."

    Xiuran was rendered even more desolate by the singing, he picked up the remaining half of the jar of wine and drank desperately.

    [Male voice] "I don't want to pretend to be confused, but I have to admit defeat."

    [Female voice] "The lost lover, who else can keep it."

    [Chorus] "I have no choice but to pretend to be confused and to pretend that I am very happy."

    [female voice] "The injury hurts in my heart, and tears can no longer flow."

    Notes

    [1]Three Views

    The three outlooks refer to the world outlook, values, and outlook on life. These are the three outlooks recognized by most people. They are dialectically unified and interact with each other. The noble truth, goodness and beauty are the pursuit goals of the three outlooks.

    The three views in Buddhism refer to the three views of one mind, which are empty view, false view and middle view.

    Sui Zhiyi's "Maha Zhiguan" Volume 5: "One is empty and all is empty, and there is no false in the middle and not empty, so the total empty contemplation is; one false is all false, there is no space but not false, the total false contemplation is also; one is everything  In the middle, there is no emptiness and falsehood without being in the middle, and it is also the middle view. It is the inconceivable one-mind three-view in the "On the Middle School."

    ?Ming. Pojian Taoist "One Penny": "Establish the three views, break the three confusions, achieve the three virtues, donate thoughts and opinions, and prove Bodhi by yourself."

    Qing Dynasty. Gong Zizhen's "Miscellaneous Poems of Jihai" No. 2: "Three views in the car are as if they are cautious at night, and Qizang's spiritual texts are as bright as electricity."

    (1) One mind and three views

    Although this idea of ??endlessness and harmony of dharma realms is derived from the "Avatamsaka Sutra", in fact it was originally created by China.

    Kongguan: It also goes from false to empty concept.

    Empty is separation of sex and separation of phase and meaning.  The mind of contemplating one thought is not inside, not outside, not in the middle, which is called emptiness; by contemplating the emptiness of one thought, it is empty and all emptiness, without falsehood, without middle and not empty; this is because the three contemplations of emptiness, falsehood and middle can eliminate the three confusions,  Eliminate thoughts and thoughts with emptiness, remove dust and sand with false contemplation, and eliminate ignorance with middle-contemplation, that is, emptiness is emptiness after all.  In other words: from secular common sense (false) to religious understanding of truth (empty) is empty view.

    False view: Youyun enters false view from the sky.

    False is unavoidable.  Contemplating the mind with one thought is full of all dharmas is called false; that is to say, one thought is false, and one false is all false. There is no emptiness, no middle, and no false; this is because the three views of emptiness, falsehood, and middle can all legislate, and the true truth is established by the view of emptiness.  , use the false view to establish the conventional truth, use the middle view to establish the middle truth, and all three methods are established as the wonderful false view.  In other words, it is a false view to enter the secular realm illuminated by the wisdom of the Buddha without staying in the void.

    Zhongguan: It also says the first truth of the Middle Way.

    ?Center means to be neutral, to eliminate the treatment of both sides.  Contemplating the mind of one thought is neither empty nor false, that is, empty or false, which is called middle; from the observation of one thought, one middle of everything, there is no emptiness, no false, and no middle; the three contemplations of emptiness, falsehood, and middle can all be eliminated and treated,  If you say nothing, you can't do anything without it, if you say something false, you can't do anything without it, if you say something in the middle, you can't do anything without it.

    In short, one does not cling to emptiness or false contemplation, and takes the practice of the Great Compassionate Bodhisattva in harmony with emptiness and falsehood as the view of the middle way.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
