Ma Weidu once asked: "Toward profit, fame, and quiet, what stage are you in?"
If this question is aimed at today's young people, the possible answer is: do not pursue fame, do not pursue profits, just want to retire.
My friend said: On the first day of work after the holiday, I felt that I had exhausted my strength.
In the face of a fast-paced, stressful work life, such a sense of powerlessness is indeed often accompanied by left and right, how do we deal with ourselves?
Maybe you have also thought about whether the ancients and the present people are happier?
By chance, I met a group of cute cats that pulled me back thousands of years and met famous paintings from Chinese history and gave me answers.
In the painting, you can get a glimpse of the idle life of the ancients, they throw pots, tune plums, and play puppets;
But at the same time, they also lived a long and tortuous life: studying hard, enduring pain and healing, and witnessing the world's sorrows and sufferings.
No matter who it is, there is no smooth life, how we live, the ancients will live, but they have more "quiet" in their hearts.
Those ancient paintings, in turn, became the opening of my life.
Qi Baishi once said: Painting is the way of loneliness, endure loneliness, and do everything.
The same is true for appreciating paintings, in order to be patient, in order to gain insight into the world in the painting, so that the realm of their hearts is more open.

Who are Ma Wei?
He is the Bole of Wang Shuo, Su Tong and other great writers;
He also preached fifty-two sermons in the Hundred Pulpits;
He is a "fool" who loves antiques and cultural relics, and is also known as the "first collector in Beijing".
He devoted himself to the collection of cultural relics for a lifetime, and founded the first private museum in New China, the Guanfu Museum.
He knows how to make obscure things so that people like to hear them.

People say: listen to Ma Weidu talk about cultural relics, insiders listen to the doorway, laymen hear fun.
So, every time Ma Wei published a book, people said "interesting":
This time is no exception, this "Guan Fu Cat: Ancient Chinese Paintings Have Mysteries", there are many interesting stories waiting for you.
The charm of ancient paintings, in its inner mystery. People who don't know how to paint naturally can't see the mystery.
Take Tang Bohu's "Tao Yu Gift Word Diagram":
At first glance, it is a man enjoying a woman playing music and singing, which is very pleasant;
A little understanding of this history, it is known that it is the Later Zhou minister Tao Yu, who is enjoying the playing of qin weaklan, a trick in the stunning palace;
Dig deeper, you will know that Tao Yu was visiting southern Tang at that time, his attitude was untamed, and the southern Tang courtiers used Qin Weilan to set up a "beauty plan" in order to expose his "false canon".
Tao Yu was sure of the plan, and also made a poem for her called "Good Scenery".
Later, this song was sung by Qin Weilan in public, which made Tao Yu ashamed and embarrassed, and finally became a laughing stock.
Before it was over, the cynical talent Tang Yin, when composing this "Tao Yu Gift Word Diagram", said:
If I were Tao Yu, I would generously admit my favor for Qin Weilan and not be ashamed.
He also pointed out that how do you know that Tao Yu is not true to Qin Weilan?
So he inscribed a poem on the upper right side of the painting:
▲ In a night of marriage and reverse travel, short words to understand the mud Hong.
At that time, I was doing Tao Chengzhi, why should I respect the front of the red.
At this time, looking closely at the expression of Tao Yu in the painting, all of them were focused on affection.
As for whether the two of them were "good marriages and bad marriages", it may not matter, Tang Bohu finally froze, just that moving night.
▲ Part of "Tao Yu Gift Word Diagram"
So, after reading the painting, do you think that Tao Yu is sincere with Qin Weilan?
After such a taste, an ancient painting is understood and seen to be interesting.
Such interesting illustrations abound in the book:
At first glance, this famous "Han Xizai Night Feast" seems to be to record a grand night feast.
But in fact, in order to "monitor" Han Xizai, Li Yu sent a painter to infiltrate the Han mansion and paint according to the scene at that time, this painter can be described as an ancient "photographer".
In "Roselle Futu", Roselle is graceful and graceful, and this beauty, along with the scene where the gods appear, is only seen by Cao Zhi, and everyone who accompanies her says that she has not seen anything.
Was this a miracle, or a magnificent illusion?

In addition to interesting facts, Ma Weidu introduced the corresponding historical background, author, costumes, costumes, utensils, scenes, customs, culture for each painting...
For example, in the "Wenhui Tu", the literati and scholars gathered together, feasted around the table, chanted poetry, and exchanged knowledge, and Ma Du duqu called it "the ancients opened their stomachs".
In the ancients' art collection activities, music was indispensable, and the person standing on the right side of the program bent slightly, holding a sandalwood board, and playing a chant.
And this sandalwood, originally introduced by ethnic minorities, later became one of the main accompaniment instruments of meta-drama.
Enjoying an ancient painting is like experiencing a feast of traditional Chinese culture, and countless historical and cultural knowledge is poured into your heart.
The satisfaction that art brings to people will surely fill your heart with strength and fight tomorrow.
