Today, "I wish people a long time, thousands of miles away" is still our best wish to our relatives who are thousands of miles away.
The people of China became attached to two great poets, Li Bai and Su Shi, because of the moon. Because of their poems, our country became "sentimental".
I can't say which one I like. It's actually hard to choose. If I had to choose, I would choose Dongpo.
There is no other reason, because I think Li Bai is a fairy and Su Shi is a human being.
Li Bai roamed the rivers and mountains in order to fly into the sky one day and fly like a Dapeng for nine days. Or maybe, I flew to Qionglou in the middle of the month in the wind, and then I embraced the bright moon.
Su Shi won't. He is like a bosom friend, lonely. He is with you and tells you that "people have joys and sorrows, and the moon has ups and downs" and "this peace of mind is my hometown". He can write poems, draw pictures, cook and learn from Su Causeway ... He can accompany you to see the beautiful scenery of the world, and he has traveled all over China.
He has always been with you and me and has never left you and me. He has always been so grounded and full of fireworks.
The word "fireworks" has nothing to do with Dongpo. He is a world-famous genius and a scholar in Song Renzong. Not surprisingly, his life may be smooth sailing.
At first, everyone thought that his life was smooth sailing. Isn't it?
However, Wutai Poetry Case changed Dongpo from a scholar who wrote about the world to a farmer with a hoe on his shoulder. Su Dongpo likes Tao Yuanming very much, so he can "experience" it this time.
Huangzhou Dongpo is made at sunrise every day and rests at sunset. He changed from a scholar to a farmer and a cook. He walked in the fields on the hillside, and there were fireworks everywhere.
This poem reads clearly and can teach us to cook after reading it. Is it full of fireworks? I finally understand why Su Shi said that his life and career were on the road to relegation.
That's because, from then on, Su Shi was not just Su Shi but Su Dongpo, whose nickname was Su Shi. Of course, this is not a whim, just do it. After Huangzhou, Dongpo became a gourmet, and he was close to life. Dongpo is the growing place and source of Su Shi's delicious food. He learned the plain truth from delicious food, Dongpo meat and Dongpo.
Don't be impatient when cooking Dongpo pork. There is a saying that you can't eat hot tofu if you are impatient. You see, Dongpo slowly cleaned the pot, then put a little water, lit weeds and firewood, and suppressed the fire. Just simmer and let it cook naturally. There's no hurry.
This is worth learning from us modern people, because we are in a hurry: we are just born, "why can't we talk?" Why can't you count? Grow up and graduate. "Why haven't you found a job yet?" "Why aren't you married?" On Monday, ask yourself, isn't it the weekend yet? ……
We are in a hurry, as if our whole life has been crushed into ten years and three days, yesterday, today and tomorrow. Even if I know I can't get quick success and instant benefit, I'm still afraid of missing the train of fate.
Behind this kind of quick success, what is lacking is the spirit of being conscientious, down-to-earth and meticulous.
We often say that it takes ten years to plant trees and a hundred years to cultivate people. Life is the process of planting trees. When a tree changes from a sapling to a towering tree, in addition to the necessary nutrients, the most important thing is precipitation.
People need precipitation more, life is a marathon, and we should patiently run to the finish line.
Now pork is of course welcomed by most people. Pigs are full of treasures, but in the Song Dynasty, rich people generally ate mutton, and mutton stewed fish soup was called fresh.
At that time, people did not find the value of pork as an ordinary food. They lack the vision to discover and create delicious food, except of course Mr. Dongpo.
Modern people seem to be the same-it is easy to do things, but it is a waste of time to do things better. The pursuit of Excellence has been diluted by quick success and instant benefit, and naturally it is even more unwilling to spend on those seemingly insignificant things.
As we all know, beauty lies in plainness. Can't waste plastic bottles be used for flower arrangement after washing?
Isn't this the beauty of plain life?
Dongpo meets the rising sun in the morning and eats Dongpo meat. The sun shone through the clouds on the ridge of the field. He ate two bowls. After eating, the farmer returned to Dongpo.
Su Shi at this time may not think too much about life through pork, but he expressed a kind of peace of mind through pork. "When a person drinks water, he knows it very well." He won't let others comment on food.
After that, Su Shi's life needs to experience more storms, but at this time he has achieved a dull life-looking down on foreign things.
This is probably the philosophy in his plain life.
