Anchor reading classics, accompany you to say goodnight, hello here is lightning night reading, I am Xu Min, anchor of Chengyang District Rong Media Center. "The willows are first dense, and the curtains are still faint", today we ushered in the seventh of the twenty-four solar terms - Lixia. As the first solar term of summer, Lixia represents the transformation of the seasons and marks the turning point of all things from birth to growth. At this time, the temperature is gradually rising, the summer is gradually emerging, the trees are leafy, a warbler is chirping, and the long summer style is coming. Tonight I would like to share with you Liang Heng's essay "Summer Sense".
Summer sense
What fills the summer is a tense, warm, urgent melody.
As if a pot of water on the stove was gradually bubbling, bubbling and finally boiling, the grass on the hillside grew into a dense thick hair, and the faint green smoke on the forest belt also condensed into a long wall of daisy. The fluttering bee butterflies were gone, but in exchange for the annoying cicadas, the long chirping of the potential leaves.
The fiery red sun baked a golden earth, and the wheat waves rolled and swept against the mountains in the distance, the clouds in the sky, and the cars on the road, like the waves of ships. Gold dominates everything in the world, and the hot wind floats across the fields and blows the scent of ripe wheat. After half a year's accumulation, the spirit of that spring has become a majestic momentum, rolling on the field and rising between heaven and earth. Summer is here.
The colors of summer are golden. From the point of view of painting, there is some truth to this. The color of spring is cold green, such as blue waves, like tender bamboo, full of hope; autumn color is hot red, like sunset, like red leaves, marking the ultimate of things. Summer is between spring and autumn, and naturally responds to this neutral yellow - the harvest has been achieved and the hope is not yet exhausted, which is a peak season that inherits the past and the future, and the life changes.
You see, the wheat has just been cut, and the cotton seedlings in the field that carry seven or eight green leaves, the sorghum and corn that hold up the trumpet tube in the sky, and the melon seedlings that are creeping forward on the ground all burst out of exuberant vitality. At this time, they are no longer slowing down in the spring breeze and rain, but under the steaming of the summer, they are full of vigor and make a final sprint to the end of autumn.
The melody of summer is tense, and every nerve of the people is tightened. You see the sickle-wielding peasants in the fields, bending over, sweating, just thinking about cutting quickly, cutting fast; the wheat is on the field, and thinking about fast play, fast play. They wake up early and go to bed late, and when they wake up in the middle of the night, they have to listen to the window paper, but the wind is blowing; look out the window, and the sky is cloudy. When the wheat is finished, it is time to breathe a sigh of relief, and we must hurry to fertilize and water the autumn seedlings. "The Tian family is less idle in the month, and the people in May are busy", they carry the summer and autumn seasons on their shoulders.
Unfortunately, the literati of all generations do not know how many spring flowers and autumn moons have been written, but there are very few shadows of summer. Probably spring melts, autumn waves are strong, and summer is always immersed in bitter sweat. People who have leisure and leisure naturally do not like this tense melody. But I want to extoll out loud this golden summer between spring and autumn.
