    [1] "Great Virtue Song. Winter" Guan Hanqing. Sanqu

    The snow is falling, and the door is closed,

    Can't help but keep the soul,

    Thin loss Jiangmei rhyme.

    There is Jiangshang Village, Qingjiang,

    Who is left out in the boudoir and asks?

    What a haggard handrailer.

    After Ji Xu lured Mu Yu and the others away, Qing Wan went upstairs quietly.

    She leaned on the railing and looked into the distance, bewildered: the heavy snow is flying, and the heavy door is covered, how can people not stop their souls?  In recent days, Qing Wan has become more and more haggard, as if Jiang Mei has lost her former charm.

    Looking up, where is Jiangshang Village, Qingjiang?  In the cold boudoir, who cares and comforts me?  There is only one handicap man left with a haggard face and looking forward!

    Just as he was thinking wildly, he heard Mu Yu's "giggle" laugh and saw him grab the man in red.  When the man in red turned around and saw that it was his teacher, he asked, "Where's your general?"

    Ji Xu hesitated and couldn't say it, but Qingwan waved upstairs and shouted: "Hey, I'm here!" The expression was really smug, "Xiaomian, I can't beat you two boys!"

    Seeing that the eldest sister had already gone upstairs to watch them running around, Mu Yu was so angry that she threw the bamboo horse on the ground and went back to her own room; Cai Yan ran with Mu Yu all afternoon, and was so tired that she couldn't even cook dinner.  ; With Ji Xu's protection, Qing Wan didn't feel tired at all, but she couldn't cook!  Helpless, Ji Xu had no choice but to do it himself.

    Seeing Ji Xu quickly stir-fry side dishes, Qing Wan asked: "Master Ji often cooks!?"

    "Yes!" Ji Xu said, "When I first came to the capital, I couldn't get used to your northern dishes, so I learned to cook them myself."

    Qing Wan joked: "My lovely little cousin, in what life did you cultivate your blessings to find such a meticulous and caring person as Mr. Ji"

    As soon as the little cousin was mentioned, Ji Xu became a little excited, and asked: "Have you told my cousin about my situation?"

    "said."

    "How did she react?"

    "How would I know how she reacted? I just sent her a letter and told her that the song "Rolling Beaded Curtain" was written by Mu Yu's husband"

    "Why do you say I am Mr.!"

    "I don't say you are Mr., could it be that you are Mu Yu's classmate?"

    "You wouldn't say that I'm Xiuran's classmate!"

    "Does it make a difference?"

    Ji Xu said: "If you say that I am the private school teacher at home, she will think that I am seventy or eighty!"

    Qingwan smiled "hehe", glanced at Ji Xu and said, "If two people really love each other, age is still a problem?"

    The two talked and laughed, and after a while, a few side dishes were ready.

    Cai He finally called Mu Yu to eat, and he simply took two mouthfuls, without washing his face or rinsing his mouth, and then fell asleep.  After Cai Yan had dinner, he didn't bother to wash the dishes, so he got up and wanted to go back to his room to rest.

    Qing Wan yelled at her back: "Oh, you little girl, since becoming a concubine, you have become more and more outrageous, do you still want me to serve you!"

    Cai Yan turned around and made a "grimaceous face", then turned and ran away.

    Qing Wan had no choice but to help Ji Xu clean up the table full of leftovers and a large stack of pots and pans.  Looking at the oily stove, the kitchen must have not been cleaned for some time, Ji Xu began to clean up again

    [2] "The Master of Furong Mountain Every Snow" by Liu Changqing. Poem

    ? The sky is cold and the white houses are poor;

    Chaimen heard the dog barking, and returned home on a snowy night.

    After tidying up the kitchen, Qing Wan made a pot of tea for Ji Xu in the middle hall [the middle room of the main house].  Go to your room to grade student work.

    Qing Wan played with the brazier, sat in the main room and waited for her in-laws to come back.

    It was already past the lighting time, and they were nowhere to be seen. The slippery snowy road guessed that they might not go home tonight, so they turned off the oil lamps and went back to their room to get ready to sleep.

    Qingwan and Youcai live in the east wing, and Caiying lives in the small inner room next to them.

    Qingwan took off her coat, leaving only a small padded jacket that was close-fitting. She crawled into the cold bed, wrapped in a thick quilt, and was staring dazedly when she heard her big yellow dog barking for joy, probably because her family had returned  .

    She got up in a hurry, grabbed a cloak and put it on her body, went out the door, carefully went down the steps, stepped on the snow, walked across the courtyard, turned around the screen wall, went out of the vertical flower gate, turned right and arrived at the gate of the house.  Hearing the name of the big coachman Wang calling Cai Ning, Qing Wan responded.??.  "Shi Shuo Xin Yu" records that Shi Chong, the richest man in the Western Jin Dynasty, "used pepper as a mud-coated room"; and Yu Xin in the Southern Dynasty also had a sentence "Xiangbi Ben mud pepper" in "Meng Ru Tang Nei Shi".  Such a room is really full of Sichuan flavor!

    (5) Central air-conditioning through time and space: firewall

    The heating of ancient emperors even enjoyed the experience of "central air conditioning".

    ?From the Ming Dynasty, in order to keep warm in the imperial palace, a "Careful Salary Division" was set up, which was the earliest "Heating Office".  Skilled craftsmen built the walls of the palace into hollow sandwich walls, commonly known as "fire walls", which can be heated by passing heat into the walls. For example, the fire wall structure of the Xianyang Palace site in the Qin Dynasty is very famous.

    The specific heating principle of the firewall can be understood from the picture on the right.  In short, this design can make the whole palace feel as warm as spring, just like a central air conditioner from modern times.

    (6) Spiritual Cold Repelling Method: Nine Nine Songs

    Although the cold weather is very difficult, it has brought out the fun of the ancients in winter.

    According to legend, as far back as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in BC, "Nine Nine Songs" had been created and widely used by the ancients: "One nine two nine, shrink feet and hands; three nine four nine, freeze pigs and dogs to death; five nine six nine  , planting willows along the river; seven, nine, eighty-nine, waving feet and hands; ninety-nine, eighty-one, plowing in the old farmland."

    Of course, people don't forget to have fun while suffering.

    In ancient times, many winter pastimes were popular among the people: when winter comes, some people paint a plum with eighty-one flowers, and from the winter solstice, one flower is dyed red every day, which is called "Nine Nine Cold Dispelling".  "Picture"; there is also a table with nine lines and eighty-one grids, called "Nine Nine Cold Dispelling Table", one grid is painted every day, the upper part is cloudy and the lower part is sunny, and in the wind and rain on the left and right, the cold will disappear when the grid is full.

    (7) palace wall

    The palace wall is the first sharp weapon to protect against the cold in the Forbidden City, usually in units of courtyards.  Each courtyard will have a separate fence.  These walls one after another, in addition to the function of separating spaces, can not only be used for fire prevention, but also resist the cold wind in winter.

    In addition, most of the palaces in the Forbidden City face south, and this design itself is conducive to relying on natural sunlight for heating.  Moreover, most of the walls and roofs of the palace are built very thick, which play a good role in keeping warm in winter.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
