Where is the origin of the meaning of the peppercorn "many children and many blessings"?
The earliest documentary record of pepper in China is this "Pepper Chat". Every poem in the Book of Poetry actually means something, and "Pepper Chat" is naturally no exception.
The "Mao Poems" and the three poems of Qi, Lu and Han all believe that "Pepper Chat" is a hymn sung for the prosperity of Qu Wohuan's uncle's descendants, and the metaphor of pepper and pepper has many children and many blessings, and it has also begun from "Pepper Chat". At that time, the Jin people used the term "huge and friendless" to describe the exploits of Uncle Qu Wohuan and his descendants, which was really normal.
Uncle Qu Wo Huan, surname Ji, name Chengshi, courtesy name Huan, Pai Xing uncle. Son of Marquis Mu of Jin and younger brother of Marquis Wen of Jin.
In 745 BC, he was enfeoffed with Quwo (quwo county, Shanxi) at the age of fifty-eight. "History of the Jin Dynasty" commented on Uncle Wo Huan: "Good virtue, all the people of the Jin Kingdom are attached." ”
In 739 BC, the Jin chancellor Pan Father killed the Marquis of Jin zhao, and installed Qu Wo Huan as his king. Uncle Huan entered the Jin capital Wing City, and the Jin people thought that Uncle Huan's name was not right, his words were not smooth, and he was not qualified to be the monarch of the Jin State, so he attacked and drove Uncle Huan away, and Uncle Huan had to return to Quwo. The Jin people re-established the son of the Marquis of Jin Zhao as the king, and it was for the Marquis of Jin.
In 731 BC, Uncle Huan died at the age of seventy-two. After Uncle Huan's death, his son Zhuang Bo and grandson Duke Wu of Jin worked hard for decades to finally eliminate the surviving Jin State Ducal Palace, and the Xiaozong Huan Clan replaced the Dazong Jin Wenhou clan and reunified the Jin State. "Pepper Chat" may have been written after the unification of the Jin Dynasty by the Duke of Jinwu.
Zhu Zi's "Biography of Poetry Collection" believes that if "Pepper Chat" praises the matter of Qu Wo Huan's clan replacing the Jin Dynasty clan, in the following generations, there is a suspicion of unethicalness, and the indoctrination of the poetic style is not here, so it is said that the poetry of "Pepper Chat" is "I don't know what it means", "this poem is not seen that it must be written for Wo". The beauty of poetry is that there is no word on current events, but the world knows what it is. The Book of Poetry is generally similar to the vague writing method of "Pepper Chat", and is often given the meaning of "gentle and generous".
At the same time, "Pepper Chat" can be regarded as a pure famous poem, which writes the amazing vitality of pepper in a concise and exaggerated brushwork, and the excellent specimen of Chinese natural literature can also find reference in "Pepper Chat". Cheng Junying's "Commentary on the Book of Poetry" points out the uniqueness of the writing technique of the poem "Pepper Chat": "The second chapter of the poem, six sentences in each chapter, the first two sentences and the last two sentences are all xing, only the middle two sentences are written by people." The verses in the Book of Poetry are mostly at the beginning of the chapter, and there are very few people who are also revived at the end of the chapter. At the end of the poem, the pepper fragrance is long and long, not only echoing back and forth, but also containing timelessness and a sense of aftersound. ”
The writing method of "Pepper Chat" is like the shape of a mountain of pen holders, the prosperity of things sets off the prosperity of people, the vitality of objects reflects the vitality of children and grandchildren, and people and things coexist as one, sensing the rotation of the wheel of time and the mysterious changes of fate. The basic writing of Chinese natural literature must be completed by sensing such a multidimensional world.
Compared with the world outlook embodied by the ancients in the Book of Poetry, the world outlook of modern people is complex and chaotic, although from the perspective of rationality, it is not weak at all, but it can be said to be thin in a simple and profound presentation.

Pepper, "Mao Chuan": "Pepper chat, pepper also." "Zheng Zhi": "The nature of the pepper is fragrant and less real, and now the fruit of the pepper is full of ascension, which is not normal." "Chen Feng Dongmen Zhi fang" said "yi I hold the pepper", here the pepper, refers to the aroma of pepper, the "Book of Poetry" era, the pepper is still the betrothed thing when men and women are betrothed. In the pre-Qin And Spring and Autumn periods, peppercorns were often used as a spice to guide the gods in the activities of sacrifice and worship, and were a bridge between people and gods.
In the pre-Qin period, peppercorns had the deep meaning of warmth, aroma and multiplicity, and peppercorns were also the meaning of concubines. "The Book of Han and the Biography of Che Qianqiu": "Jiang Chong first ruled the Ganquan Palace people and transferred to weiyang pepper room." Yan Shigu's ancient note: "Pepper room, the name of the temple, the queen's residence." Lu Jie's "Lu Shu" is the earliest record of pepper as a dietary seasoning: "The pepper tree resembles a cocoon, with needles. The stems and leaves are firm and smooth, and the taste is also spicy. The Shu people make tea, and the Wu people make tea, both of which are boiled with their leaves. There are bamboo leaf peppers in the mountains of Jinchenggao, and their wood is also like Shu peppers, which are small poisonous and hot, and they are not medicated, and can be used in the diet for steamed chicken and dolphins. There are also pepper trees on the islands of the East China Sea, with similar branches and leaves. The seeds are long but not round, very fragrant, its taste is like orange peel, the island roe deer, deer eat this leaf, its flesh naturally makes pepper, orange fragrance. Erya Shimu: "Huǐ ,大椒." "The Compendium of Materia Medica interprets the name of Qin pepper as large pepper, syrup, and peppercorn. "Fan Zi Ji Ran" Yun: "Shu pepper out of the martial capital, red is good." Qin pepper out of longxi tianshui, fine grain is good. ”
The Book of Poetry is the earliest known document for recording peppercorns.
It is a small deciduous tree of the genus Rubiaceae, between 3 and 7 meters tall, with bark with wood thrombotic nodular spines, odd pinnate compound leaves, and alternate growth. The leaves have fine serrations at the edges and distinct oil spots between the teeth. The fruit is spherical, red or purple-red when ripe, with coarse oil spots on the peel. Flowering period is from April to May. Peppercorns picked from July to August are called "fu peppers", and peppercorns picked from September to October are called "autumn peppers". The quality of the general pepper is better than that of the autumn pepper.
The wood of the peppercorns is typically pale yellow, the color exposed in the air becomes slightly dark yellow, the difference between the heart sapwood is not obvious, the xylem structure is dense and uniform, the longitudinal section has a silk luster, and the large material has artistic value.
Pepper is used as a traditional Chinese medicine, which has the effects of warming the qi, chasing the cold, relieving pain, and killing insects. Treat stomach and abdominal cold pain, vomiting, diarrhea, schistosomiasis, roundworm and other symptoms. Also used as epidermal anesthetic. The multiplicity of peppercorns is only a kind of expectation that the ancients prayed from the witch blessing sacrifice, and the peppercorns themselves did not have the effect of having many children and many grandchildren.
The origin of the meaning of peppercorns and many blessings originates from the "Pepper Chat", it is speculated that when men and women were newly married, the witch of the god who presided over the blessing was facing a large bed for the newlyweds, while scattering pepper seeds (one of the ancient names of peppercorns is also called pepper seeds), walnuts, jujubes and other spiritual objects, while singing this "Pepper Chat" loudly, so that the gods in charge of fertility would bless the two men and women, and have many children and many blessings.
Another explanation of the poem is that it is a bold love poem by a woman who suggests to the man she likes that she is not only plump and beautiful, but also has a strong fertility like a mountain pepper.
When the pepper grows, it is dressed in a purple red robe, containing the jade beads of Ugin, and the fragrance of the four hours, which gives it a graceful temperament, and the harem of the later empress is also called "Pepper House", which is also a metaphor for the blessings from the peppercorns.
There is also a poem in the "Book of Poetry" that talks about peppers, "The East Gate of the Fang", which says", "See Er as a thorn, and I hold the pepper", this sentence hides a pair of men and women's affectionate smiles, as well as the gratitude and satisfaction of holding hands and walking together for a lifetime.
"If you don't read the Book of Poetry, you don't know that everything has animism", paying attention to the plants in the Book of Poetry, it is natural to jump out of your heart. Most of the peppercorns that we commonly know are the mysteries of its taste that transform into the sense of taste, and this mystery of taste and the power formed in people's inner spiritual space are unpredictable.
