"Pairs" are not limited to the Spring Festival
Half Moon Talk Reporter Luo Xuefeng Zheng Xuejing
"Pairs" have become popular in many costume romance dramas at present: in the examination of the imperial examination, the upper league is required to be the lower link, and the "competition to recruit relatives" is the first to "put the pair of cruel words", and the key to solving the puzzle may be hidden between the lines of a pair of Yue Lian. In the eyes of some Scholars of the Republic of China, Yang Lian is just the last stream in the traditional style. Liang Qichao claimed that he was "a vassal of a vassal in the Piao Li wen". In the process of modern and contemporary stylistic evolution, the combination of yanglian rhyme and the unity of beauty and use have played a special role in different periods.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the YangLian United forces from all sides
In order to mourn the fallen soldiers, Jiang Guangnai once wrote a letter: "Self-defense is a natural human right, 30,000 people are generous to ascend to the throne, there are severed generals, there are generals without surrender, and the stones and the sea are dry; Meet with the shame of the country with blood, forty days to see the danger of the order, I led the king to wait out, do not lead it in, pepper pulp cinnamon wine has a residual mourning. Zhou Enlai once wrote a joint article entitled "Gifting Xian Xinghai": "Roar for the War of Resistance and compose a voice for the masses." The words are straightforward and appropriate, in line with the strong tone of the times at that time.
Wu Hufan once wrote: "Meng Guang rolled his head, Liang Hongzhi short; Song Jiang suffered defeat, and Wu used Wei to eliminate. Borrowing the names of Meng Guang, Liang Hong, Song Jiang, and Wu to ridicule the traitors Liang Hongzhi and Wu Yongwei with their shameless faces and ugly faces. This belongs to the ironic union in the Yang Lian, which is quite similar to the sharp and spicy satirical art of modern essays.
Another example is the blacksmith shop association: "The enemy is like coal, gradually burning and embering; Our army is like steel, and the more it fights, the stronger it becomes. "The word is like a sword, coldly contemptuous of the enemy, and to our army. Liquor store association: "Plan for a cup of wine to eliminate national difficulties; Fight together and defeat the slaves. "Such wartime calls for the same enemy, and can even be called miniature essays.
In March 1944, mao Zedong pointed out when talking about how to develop culture and art in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region: "There are 350,000 households in the border area, and each of them hangs a Spring Festival league with new contents, which will also make the border area look new." The Spring League was a literacy textbook and political textbook for the masses at that time, and was an important aspect of the cultural activities of the masses.
Throughout the ages, the reason why It is widely favored is that it is easier to operate than other literary and artistic forms, and it can "pick out the main points" by relying only on the text, which is convenient for memorization and recitation, breaking the restrictions of regions and dialects, and is often used and new.
Yuelian culture enters the campus to cultural people
"The flowers here are condensed and misty, who reads the breeze under the pine", "The breeze on all sides is full of yaxing, a pavilion is refreshing and vulgar", "A pillow of yellow sorghum is not ripe, I have recognized that the ji is leaning on each other, and the three bamboo boards are knocking on it and laughing at its blessings and misfortunes"... A pair of new links with profound meaning and catchy new links allows today's teenagers to deeply appreciate the charm of excellent traditional culture. In 2019, Huang Lianyou, director of the Yanglian Society in Longyao County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province, founded the Tangyao Calligraphy and Painting Institute, which used holidays to teach young people to practice calligraphy and integrate the Yanglian culture into the teaching of calligraphy.
Longyao County is the ancestral hometown of the Li tang royal family, enjoying the title of "Tang Yao Holy Land, Li's Hometown", is "the hometown of national folk culture and art" and "the hometown of Chinese poetry", and has been rated as "China's Yuelian Cultural County" by the China Yuelian Society. In order to strengthen the cultural education of young people, four schools in Longyao County have published special exchange publications, carried out theme activities such as the Yang Lian Joint Copy newspaper and the yang lian special blackboard newspaper competition, "I write couplets for my class", and hung the yang lian on the main buildings. The school not only specially opens the Yanglian curriculum, but the teachers will also combine the teaching content and integrate the Yanglian culture.
Cao Zhenfeng is a Chinese teacher at Gucheng Middle School in Longyao County, who is often quoted and witty in class, which is deeply loved by students. One day in class, Cao Zhenfeng wrote a topic on the blackboard and turned around to give a lecture, when he found that the students rushed to look outside the classroom, it turned out that the birdsong in the trees outside the window was very pleasant, but they couldn't see the birds, and everyone stretched their necks to look for the birds. Cao Zhenfeng saw this and groaned loudly: "'The sound of the leaf bottom suddenly enters the ear', who will come to the next link?" As soon as the words stopped, a student stood up in the corner of the classroom and said, "Teacher, I will give you the 'book center is out of the door.'"
"Well, that's right!" Cao Zhenfeng boasted. "Teacher, since the 'book center is ready to go out', let's look at it for a while!" A classmate said. Cao Zhenfeng said: "You can see enough of what is up, and you can't look at it again!" After a burst of laughter in class, everyone calmed down and continued the class.

The ancient Yanglian has rejuvenated its youth into a new era
Li Baoshen and Huang Lianyou, vice presidents of the Longyao County Calligraphers Association, are old comrades over 60 years old, and they take the lead in participating in the public welfare activity of "sending ten thousand blessings and entering ten thousand homes" every year.
"With the spirit of a cow, who dares to stop the footsteps of spring?" There is a party voice, and the water frequently adds to the heart of the sea" "Hello Yaoxiang, the cold winter blooms plum mountains and rivers show; Blessed land and I am safe, the people are unharmed Spring News Xiang" "The Network is always ready to greet, Shenzhou is full of hometown"... During the epidemic prevention and control period in 2021, Longyao County held an online collection of works, and the collected works were released throughout the county through the Internet, striving to create a strong atmosphere for the whole people to fight the epidemic and overcome the difficulties of the times.
How to rejuvenate the ancient traditional cultures with a thousand-year-old history such as Yanglian? How to make young people like ancient culture? Various cultural programs in the new era have a lot of room for exploration and innovation in this regard.
Participants in cultural TV programs have written a link for the song "Romantic Things": "The rods support each other, and the warmth in the palms is as good as before; The wind and frost look lightly, and the tenderness under the eyes is like a teenager. As a wonderful continuation of the lyrics of the song, "The most romantic thing I can think of, is to be able to grow old with you slowly", even if the two sideburns are white, the return is still a teenager. The participants of the low-income households made a connection in the program with the theme of "My Well-off": "Fortunately in the Tang Yu Dynasty, the upbringing is unbiased, and in the 100,000 Spring Wind New Year Paintings; All bear the rain Luen, widows are alone, three thousand colorful dreams before the begonias. "When the ancient Yanglian meets the new expression of the new era, its vitality and appeal will be activated instantly, and its charm is self-evident."
