Northern folk proverb: A small cold and a big cold, the New Year is over. It means that after the small cold is the big cold, and after the big cold, the Spring Festival is approaching.
Cold oracle
The cold oracle is very interesting. It is framed by the exterior walls and dome of a house, with a huddled human figure surrounded by grass. Together, these three groups of elements will realize that this person has no warm clothes and quilts, so he has to rely on wadding grass to resist the cold.
In ancient times, productivity was very low, and the common people were even more hungry and cold. There are not many people who can use textiles to make bedding to keep out the cold.
The cold character of the oracle bone inscription makes people seem to see the scene of the poor shivering in the cold air of the winter night.
寒的小篆体
The cold of the small seal body basically inherits the three elements of the oracle bone inscription, the dome of the house is still there, the huddled human figure is also there, and the four grass shapes are also there. However, the glyphs and strokes of the small seal are more supple and standardized.
The cold of regular script
There are many good poems by ancient and modern poets that describe the cold. Chairman Mao Zedong's "Qinyuan Spring, Changsha" has "In the cold autumn of independence, the Xiangjiang River goes north." Orange Island head, see the mountains red all over". Liu Zongyuan also has a swan song for the ages:
Thousands of mountains and birds fly away, and thousands of people disappear.
Lonely boat, fishing alone in the cold river and snow.
After the big cold, the Spring Festival is here.
Spring is not far away!
