At work in the morning, I put my hand in my pocket, still feeling cold, and the cold wind blew my nose and eyes sour. As soon as I went out of the community door, I saw two neighbors and grandchildren walking in front of me, and my granddaughter took my grandmother's hand, bouncing and jumping while walking and chatting happily, and both of them had a bright look on their faces.
Just listen to Grandma's proposal, the solar new year has arrived, let's use idioms to express everyone's mood. She first said, "Jubilant." The granddaughter was happy and said, "It's simple. Happily. The laughter of the old and the young sounded very warm and amiable in the cold morning. The granddaughter's big red down jacket is especially eye-catching and joyful in the bleak winter day.

Going out to see such a scene, although it is common, I can't help but think of a word: "Years of joy." "The old years are gone, the new years are coming, and for the general public, those unhappy things and troubles must be thrown aside." New Year and new atmosphere, everything must have a beautiful and festive beginning, that is, to be as joyful and happy as the pair of people in front of you.
Wang Zengqi once wrote: "The wind is strong in the middle of winter, the hundreds of flowers are withered, the clear window is sitting right, and the eyes are brighter. "It's about the Qing Offering, and those plants that are very discerning and discerning can always add some fun and add a little festivity to the bleak winter days." To put it bluntly, it is also pleasing to the eye.
The joy of the world, the literati painter also yearns for it. Many painters like to paint "Pictures of the Qing Dynasty", integrating flowers and plants, vegetables, melons and fruits, birds, insects and fish into the paintings, giving them meaning, expressing good wishes and expectations, such as years of peace, wealth and longevity, and good luck.
Qi Baishi has a "Year Dynasty Map", the image is simple, a red lantern, a string of firecrackers, a few apples. However, the festive taste jumps out of the painting, which means peace and security, red and red, and "bamboo newspaper peace". In short, it is all "auspicious on earth".
Wu Changshuo is even more fond of "The Year of the Dynasty" for ten minutes, and paints it almost every year as the first work at the beginning of the New Year. At the age of 77, he made a large painting of "Shuoguo Qing offering", full of paper mascots: pillar stones, caryophyllus, bottle peony, Zhilan, bergamot, dan persimmon, which can be described as complicated but festive. The wonderful thing is the inscription next to the painting: "Appreciate the famous flowers, entertain the fruits, provide dust-free years and spring, the joy is endless, and the beauty is prolonged." ”
"In a hut, an old man held a crock pot in his hand, inserted a plum blossom branch, and was about to put it on the case, painting a poem next to it: 'The mountain family Chinese New Year's Eve nothing else, and the plum blossoms are planted for the New Year."" This is written by Wang Zengqi after seeing an old painting. The simple life does not lose the joy and elegance of the style, the painter or the joy of the painter or the unknown painter. Every year in the new year, I always think of such a scene, and I feel very kind.
Wang Zengqi also said in the "Confession of the Dynasty" that the poor family should also have a little color in the New Year, so they raise a pot of garlic instead of daffodils; or use large radishes to cut off the tail, dig out the meat, plant garlic in the empty shell, use wire as a hoop, hang under the window of the morning sun with a thread, the garlic leaves are turquoise, the radish skin is red, and the radish is rolled up, which is also quite pleasing to the eye.
In my opinion, these two scenes are more wonderful than the paintings. Just like the two grandchildren in front of you, steaming, rejoicing, shining, that is the taste of life. (Yangcheng Evening News 2022-01-02 A08 edition)
