Chinese Almanac Master

As soon as Xiao Nanzhu left the house, he immediately threw the rag in his hand angrily.Because he already had a serious obsession with cleanliness, he looked at Xiao Nanzhu with a gloomy face and felt unhappy about the housework that Xiao Nanzhu threw to him.

But thinking of the way the man looked down on him before he left, Qingming gritted his teeth and picked up the mop that was dumped in the bathroom, and just as he was dissatisfied and started mopping the floor in the living room At that time, Qingming, who had never done these tasks before, was first stained with a wet and dirty mop, and then accidentally spilled the water in the bucket when she went to wash the mop.

"This... this is really unreasonable!!"

I couldn't bear to curse like this, Ching Ming Festival looked a little embarrassed at the moment, but it was a little different from the usual emphasis on appearance.After all, he has always been a god with a special status since he was born. Although he was not valued at the beginning, now he has become the unique Qingming Lord through his accumulated efforts.

Because others have always accommodated him, and he has no part to wrong him, so Xiao Nanzhu's attitude towards him naturally made Qingming feel uncomfortable. Not only because Xiao Nanzhu didn't respect him as much as those calendar teachers in the past, but also because whenever this stern-faced calendar teacher began to teach him in an impatient tone, it sounded like a haunted ghost The tone of eating cold rice festival and talking to him.

The so-called Cold Food Festival is actually the Cold Food Festival on the day after Tomb-sweeping Day. Eating cold rice is a unilateral mockery of Cold Food during the Qingming Festival. Hanshi has never responded to this, and to pursue the relationship between the two of them, in fact Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the two of them have been together for two festivals.

Speaking of the origin of the Cold Food Festival, it actually comes from the worship of fire by humans in ancient times.In primitive society, human life is inseparable from fire, which is also reflected in various myths and legends.In traditional Chinese stories, there is the existence of Zhurong, the god of fire, and in Greek legends, there is also a story about Prometheus stealing fire. However, fire that can bring people warmth and drive away wild animals often causes great disasters to mankind. On the one hand, people Needing him, but fearing him at the same time, out of this kind of mentality, the ancients believed that fire was a god and worshiped fire.The fires worshiped by each family must be stopped and extinguished once a year.Then rekindle a new fire, which is called changing the fire.When changing the fire, the tribes will hold a grand sacrificial activity, and burn the symbol of Gushenji, which is called human sacrifice.Followed by tradition, it formed the later fire ban festival.

However, the fire ban lasted for a very short time, because it soon transformed into the Cold Food Festival in the course of history, and in all historical legends, the earliest allusions of the Cold Food Festival are used to commemorate the Jin Dynasty in the Spring and Autumn Period. It was pushed by Jie Zi, a famous minister of the country.

Legend has it that during Jin Wengong Chong'er's exile, Jie Zitui cut his flesh to satisfy his hunger.After Jin Wengong returned to his country as king, he forgot Jie Zitui when he divided up his ministers.Jie Zitui didn't want to boast about his achievements and compete for favor, so he lived in seclusion in Mianshan with his mother.Later Jin Wengong personally went to Mianshan to invite Jie Zitui, but Jie Zitui didn't want to be an official and hid in the mountains.Jin Wengong's subordinates set fire to the mountain, the original intention was to force Jie Zitui to reveal the truth, but Jie Zitui hugged his mother and was burned to death under a big tree.Seeing this, Duke Wen of Jin was naturally remorseful, so in order to commemorate this loyal minister and righteous man, the common people did not cook on the day of Jie Zitui's death, but ate cold food, which is called the Cold Food Festival.

The death of Jie Zitui and his mother led to the birth of the Cold Food Festival. Since his birth, this god had the nobility bestowed by the royal family. Naturally, it was different from the general festivals at that time, because there was no trace of fireworks that belonged to the world. From the appearance, it is also a look of ice-cold, strangers don't get close to each other. It is obvious that ordinary people have normal black hair, but this god is born with white hair, which makes people feel intimidated, which seems to be for this A cold-hearted god added a bit of mystery and awe, and when the custom of cold food was gradually born, this god suddenly discovered that a festival was also born the day after him one day.

The shy child with an immature face, clean white clothes, and a blue cloth scarf on his head has a nice name, Qingming.The first time Han Shi saw this young man, he found it interesting, and there was a bit of smoke in his eyes that had never fluctuated, and this little god who was helpless and might disappear without knowing one day, the moment he saw Han Shi Also suddenly understood what is called a real god.

Thinking about it now, that was perhaps the happiest time the two of them had spent together in hundreds of years.Because Qingming at that time was just a vassal festival born due to cold food, let alone what is called a traditional festival, sometimes people didn't even realize that there was a Qingming besides cold food.After all, the Cold Food Festival has lasted for more than two thousand years. It was once known as the largest folk festival. As the only festival named after the eating customs among the traditional festivals of the Han nationality, it is even more special. Recently, that's why people used cold food and Qingming together, and this has become a thorn in Qingming's heart for so many years. No matter how much time has passed, he can't let it go easily.

From ten years to a hundred years to a thousand years, he foolishly followed Hanshi and suffered from being humiliated and ignored.Lord Hanshi, who is infinitely beautiful, always has a superior attitude, and naturally he doesn't bother to take a second look at him during the Ching Ming Festival.Obviously he has tried hard enough to catch up with him, but Han Shi's attitude towards him is always so lukewarm. Once upon a time, he would have dreamed of comparing Han Shi to the past, but after so many years, he not only It has become a traditional festival in the true sense, and cold food has become an old calendar festival that is no longer valued by people. But when this man with white hair, white clothes, and no elegance leans down and stares at him indifferently, At that time, the Ching Ming Festival still produced a feeling that cold food actually didn't care about all this at all.

He doesn't care if Qingming replaced him, and he doesn't care what his current status is. Hanshi Jun always looks like this arrogant. Even if Qingming is better than him in everything, he still feels that he can't get out of his heart.He even forgot what his original intention was, and all he was thinking about was how to make this conceited and arrogant god show a weak and frustrated expression at him, but it is a pity that until now, Han Shijun still treats him as an injustice. Existence is ordinary, no matter how many childish methods he uses in Qingming Festival to toss him, he just remains unmoved.

Thinking in this way, just now when Qingming Festival, who still had the strength to argue with Xiao Nanzhu and smashed things, suddenly felt a kind of unreasonable grievance. Sneakily spying on him.Seeing this situation, being left at home by Xiao Nanzhu meant to protect Tai Sui Zhouquan. On Qingming Festival, he raised a mop to kill all these evil spirits of unknown origin, and then threw the mop head into the bucket on the ground. Finally, he wiped his eyes with his sleeve, and then sat down on the sofa.

When he came to work today, he was indeed in a bad mood.Although he usually has this bad temper, but he will never get angry with Xiao Nanzhu for no reason.But it was probably because I saw the Cold Food Festival the night before, and it was not very pleasant again, so when I came to work, Qingming Festival inevitably moved a little bit of anger, and then I thought about eating cold food with that person last night. At the scene when they met on the festival, Qingming Festival wiped his red nose vigorously, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and cursed.

The Cold Food Festival has not been in good health these years. Although the Huachao Festival and other festivals that are about his age are not much better, but as the Ching Ming Festival that has witnessed his decline from prosperity to decline, no one is worse than him. In order to know how bad the situation of the Cold Food Festival is.Once upon a time, he was thinking of surpassing the cold food festival, but when this day came, something was wrong in his heart for the Qingming Festival.Because the kind of transcendence he wants does not refer to Hanshi's gradual decline until death, but just thinking of the way he was about to die at any time when he went to see that man last night, the pale Qingming Festival panicked for a while. .

……

"If you're not in good health, don't go to work the day after tomorrow. What else do you think you can do? It's not a drag..."

Hearing Han Shi's violent coughing, Ching Ming Jie frowned at the white-haired man in black and spoke.Wen Yan's Hanshi ignored him, just took a sip of the cold tea in front of him and didn't speak.Seeing this situation, Qingming frowned in displeasure, as if wanting to remind him to drink something hot.But after all, they have lived on a calendar for a hundred years, so he also understands that cold food is the habit of eating cold food.However, he originally meant well when he said these words, but when the words came to his lips, he turned into this yin and yang strange look. He stared at him with concern for a while, and suddenly held Qingming's palm with his bony hand.

"Qingming, if I die one day, will you be sad?"

There was some faint light in the dark eyes, and Han Shi's voice was very low, but he said every word very clearly. Hearing the words, Ching Ming Festival was stunned, and he didn't understand why he would say such words. After all, although he He has been in some contact with Han Shi, but it is not harmonious. Only close relatives can do such things as crying, and he does not need to do this at all. Seeing his ignorant reaction, Han Shi, whose heart was half cold for a while, sighed in despair. He took a deep breath, turned to stagger his eyes and murmured in a low voice,

"You're right on New Year's Eve. You've been there for hundreds of years... you haven't made any progress."
