1, once at lunch, Wang Xizhi's favorite mashed garlic and steamed bread were brought to him in a bookish way, and he was urged to eat quickly several times. He still didn't even lift his head, as if he didn't hear it, and he was absorbed in reading the post and writing. The meal was cold, so Jibang had to ask Wang Xizhi's mother to persuade him to eat. Mother came to the study, only to find Xihe holding a steamed bread stained with ink and sending it to her mouth, making her mouth black. It turned out that when Xi Zhi was eating steamed stuffed buns, he was still looking at the words and thinking about how to write them in his mind. As a result, he mistook the ink for garlic. Mother couldn't help laughing when she saw this scene. Wang Xizhi still doesn't know what's going on Hearing his mother's laughter, he also said, "today's mashed garlic is really fragrant!" " Wang Xizhi persisted for decades, studied hard, kept posting, and practiced very solid kung fu, which laid the foundation and paved the way for his future development.
He thinks that raising geese can not only cultivate sentiment, but also realize the truth of calligraphy from some gestures of geese. One morning, Wang Xizhi and his son Wang Xianzhi took a boat tour of Shaoxing. When they arrived near Xianshui Village, they saw a flock of white geese on the shore, staggering and dawdling. Wang Xizhi was fascinated by these white geese and wanted to buy them home. Wang Xizhi asked the Taoist priest nearby, hoping that the Taoist priest could sell him the goose. The Taoist priest said, "If the right army adults want it, please write a Taoist health book" Huang Ting Jing "for me! Wang Xizhi longed for the goose and readily agreed to the conditions put forward by the Taoist priest. This is the story of "Wang Xizhi gave the White Goose Book".
At the age of twenty, A Qiu Chi Jian sent someone to Wang Dao's house to choose a son-in-law. At that time, people paid attention to family status, and the door was right. When Wang Dao's son and nephew heard that Qiu's family was coming to propose marriage, they all dressed up in disguise, hoping to be selected. Only Wang Xizhi, as if he didn't hear anything, was lying on the bamboo couch in the east, eating baked wheat cakes in one hand and painting clothes in the other. When people came back, they reported what they saw to Xi Taiwei. When he knew that there was a quiet Wang Xizhi leaning on the east couch, he couldn't help clapping his hands and cheering. This is the son-in-law I want! So Chi Jian married his daughter Xi Jun to Wang Xizhi. This story has become two allusions of "East Bed" and "Lingtan".
There are more idioms appearing on him. It is said that on one occasion, he wrote his words on a board and gave them to a sculptor for carving. The man cut the board with a knife, only to find that his handwriting was printed two-thirds deep in the board. This is the origin of the idiom "cut to the chase".
5. Wang Xizhi loved writing since childhood. It is said that when I usually walk, I also practice writing with my fingers at any time. After a long time, even the clothes were cut. After studying hard and practicing hard, Wang Xizhi's calligraphy became more and more famous. People at that time regarded his calligraphy as a treasure. Once, Wang Xizhi met an old woman selling fans and wrote a few words on a fan. At first, the old woman was very unhappy and complained that Wang Xizhi had soiled her fan. Wang Xizhi said to her: Just say that it is an inscription by Wang Youjun (the right general of Wang Xizhi), and someone will definitely buy it. The old lady selling fans was dubious, but when she really shouted in a crowded place, Hu Long was surrounded by people and everyone rushed to buy it. You forced me to take it, and it soon sold out.
6. One year on New Year's Day, Wang Xizhi posted couplets three times in a row, and the person who loved his words stole them. On New Year's Eve, I had to write another letter. He was afraid of being exposed again, so he cut it up and down and put it in half first. The first part is "double happiness" and the second part is "double misfortune". In this way, it really worked. When people saw that what he wrote was unlucky and not rich, they stopped revealing it. At the beginning of the new year, Wang Xizhi posted half a sentence each, and the couplet became: "Happiness never ends today, but it never rains but it pours last night." Passers-by clapped their hands and sighed.
It is said that Wang Xizhi has a beloved pearl. This pearl is not only for entertainment, but also for viewing. Wang Xizhi often rubs his hands when writing to enhance his wrist strength. One day, the pearl suddenly disappeared. I looked and looked, but I couldn't find it. Wang Xizhi is very upset. Who stole it? Except for a monk who lives in his house, no stranger has been around him ... so he became cold to the monk. The monk found that Master was suspicious of him, so he starved to death in the name of "making China". Later, when the family slaughtered the white goose, pearls were found in the belly of the big white goose. It turned out that the big white goose swallowed the beads. When things were made clear, Wang Xizhi deeply felt that he had wronged the monk, regretted it and was very sad. In memory of this innocent monk, he converted his house into "Zhu Jie Temple", saying that he should take the incident of throwing pearls as a lesson, treat his friends with sincerity, and don't easily doubt others and let them be wronged.
