There is a kind of peach blossom that has been magical for thousands of years.

In the Zhou Dynasty 2500 years ago, there was a village full of peach trees in the Hanjiang River valley.

In spring, peach blossoms are in full bloom, and people sing songs praising peach blossoms; When peach trees are full of fruits, they pick peaches and sing praises.

One day, a woman in the village got married, and people came to send her blessings and sang songs of congratulations around her.

"Lush peach trees, with fragrant and gorgeous peach blossoms, beautiful women are getting married and happily marrying into their husband's family. "

"The lush peach trees bear sweet peaches, which will make her new home prosperous."

"Lush peach trees, full of branches and leaves, will make her new home happy and peaceful."

The woman as beautiful as a peach blossom blushed. In the song of the villagers' blessing, she held a longing for a new life and showed a peach-blossom sweet smile.

This short story and this peach blossom that has been amazing for thousands of years are all from the peach blossom in the Book of Songs.

At that time, the industrious and brave people of Mu Feng cultivated in the vast world, plowed in spring and harvested in autumn, married and had children, and thrived. Maybe there was a lack of food and clothes at that time; Perhaps they have lived in the wind, camped out and drifted from place to place, but their tenacity and romance run through all the years, singing the most sincere love and feelings with their songs, and creating the Book of Songs, a treasure of Chinese culture, with extraordinary wisdom.

As the first collection of poems in China, The Book of Songs collected 3 1 1 poems from the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period. Rich in content, it reflects social life such as labor and love, war and corvee, oppression and resistance, customs and marriage, ancestor worship and feasting, and even astronomical phenomena, landforms, animals and plants. The time span is about five or six hundred years; The origin is centered on the Yellow River basin, south to the north bank of the Yangtze River, and distributed in Shaanxi, Gansu, Shanxi, Shandong, Hebei, Henan, Anhui, Hubei and other places.

Throughout the ages, there are countless people who like the Book of Songs, and various versions emerge one after another, and various reading analyses are in full bloom. Among them, the beauty of The Book of Songs is the beauty that can best show the emotional charm of The Book of Songs.

Twenty-two selected books were translated by Yu Shouzhen, a scholar of the Republic of China, and Zhou Yujie, a contemporary female writer, with their gentle brushwork and simple language according to the original poem content and relevant historical facts, which turned the originally difficult classical Chinese into a vivid and interesting story.

From details to the whole, from appearance to connotation, the book is full of "beauty" temperament. As the name implies, calligraphy and painting match and poetry is harmonious. It is suitable for reading in a wide range, not only for teenagers who are beginners in poetry, but also for lovers of poetry reading and appreciation at all levels and learners of Chinese painting appreciation.

The content includes: The Book of Songs classics, The Book of Songs stories, The Book of Songs plants, The Book of Songs idioms, The Book of Songs famous sentences, etc. , and the essay is equipped with audio of flowers and birds handed down from ancient times and the Book of Songs. More than 100 flower-and-bird paintings by six painters from Song, Ming, Qing and modern times were selected.

Formally, the model of "summarizing before dividing" is adopted. For example, Ji Zi, which we are most familiar with, lists the original text:

Qingqing is your collar, YY is my miss. If I didn't go to see you, didn't you receive my letter?

Green is what you wear, and leisurely is my feeling. If I never visit you, can't you take the initiative?

Come on, always open your eyes, on this high tower. A day without seeing your face seems as long as March!

First of all, under a beautiful picture, choose the famous sentence in the Book of Songs: green and purple, lingering in my heart. -The Book of Songs Zheng Feng Ji Zi, which means: "Your Tsing Yi haunts my heart".

Secondly, summarizing the central idea, difficult words such as "Ji Zi, Youyou, Yin Si, Chengjue" explain the meaning word by word and translate poems literally.

Thirdly, with the modern painter Yu Feian's Four Seasons Flower and Bird Screen II, it brings a beautiful love story, Beautiful Missing, which is interpreted from the perspective of modern context. Congenial young lovers miss, expect, question, complain, sigh and talk to themselves about the men in Tsing Yi. Although the space is not long, the characters are vivid and interesting.

Finally, I quoted the idiom "I don't see you for a day, but I like Sanqiu" in this article. After literal translation, add notes and indicate the source.

In addition to love, there is also a long beach to show brotherhood. It is also my favorite chapter, with profound artistic conception, sincere feelings and touching feelings.

Many plants in the original Book of Songs are also a unique landscape in the beautiful Book of Songs. Peach, lotus, green plum, peony, tremella and other 10 plants are selected in the book, which are introduced from the perspectives of humanities and botany, and accompanied by modern paintings by contemporary painter Li Zhimi, which are gentle, beautiful and charming.

The Beautiful Book of Songs is like a flower in the wild, full of fragrance. Let's concentrate on Taohuazhuang and under the long dike tree and feel the Millennium feelings and elegance of the Chinese nation.
