If look for a kind of vegetables to become the delegate of a Peking Man, I think blame cucumber not is belonged to. In leaving the to home town a lot of impression in brain of existence Peking Man, definitely surely one frame and cucumber are concerned, concern with summer, and, great majority decides case so: Hero dress is optional, hurdle race vest, knickers slipper, hold a bowl big in the palm single-handed, the tomato bittern that has mixed is inside the bowl face or let off a lot of vinegar cross water sesame paste face, valve of a few garlic piles to go up at the face, the chopstick points to in what ask this hand of the bowl mostly seam inserting, another hand that vacates, lifting a cucumber, grasp those who catch completely law. Swallow a face, bite a cucumber, beijing word, skip fragmentarily come out, from chew the pharynx below cucumber have not in the mouth of clear sky, the green odour that taking cucumber. The cyan that had state of a mist overspreads the language of the move, lunt dye-in-the-wood, word, it is word of the daily life of a family, green, it is red bayberry blueness. Over word of that posse mist, pagoda tree shade 4 cloth, room backbone lets big sun be basked in very very hotly, cicada sound is plangent.
So many a courtyard, comprised an alley, a such alley wove a big city. Look down at, each hand in this big city holds face bowl in the palm to starting the person of cucumber, became to be being set green bit what show faintness slightly is white dizzy -- be just as a painter to draw snow -- look be like optional feature cloth -- actually every corner has, take care of get.
Cucumber is the Peking Man in the summer is special dish. This " special " 2 words have two meanings in Beijing word. It is to say to be familiar with extremely firstly, as family like, show what was done not have firstly, come back to still its reveal all the details is defending you, so you can set your mind at.
Poppyhead takes thorn, it is the appearance of the person that sell and citizen to cucumber, character its are fresh. This is fresh come from the reason that did not go on a long journey at new . When imagining old city wall to still be in, lofty city wall is towering aloft, city wall inside and outside, cloth wears the star to be in the vegetable garden of two place, inside the vegetable garden, establishing 10 8 cucumber, garden person prowl melon wearing week meets with, examine one hangs down to wear the melon between greenery in pole, see size, picked, slow code put down gently at filling up the basket of twigs of the chaste tree of pliable other people in, basket of twigs of the chaste tree gradually full, the start on a journey that let a person -- by earthy road official path. Cucumber, lying silently, after a gentle jolt, be put finally in slant in by the code over the Labu of water. The old lady goes into the street transient, clutch put together chew in the mouth, in order to decide melon is not sufferred from, buy on a few, the home goes serve children and grand children.
Cucumber has an independent variety in Beijing, call Beijing spinule melon. One how long, dove egg degree of finish. Beijing spinule melon has pain rarely. Melon is bitter, because rain,be later, did not water cucumber in time, person lazy melon Qing Dynasty is sweet do not rise.
About the name of cucumber, on ancient books all the time thickness, cucumber and king melon are alternating to use. Actually in Peking Man language, king melon and cucumber share very careful. This paragraph as complicated legal case, li Shizhen is told very clearly. King melon is bare Pao, the shine upon thing that often sheds bag of big bare of gentleman the wording and purpose of what one writes also. Mr Qi Rushan " the country of China north " in use to be being mixed twice made apology, regrettablly is, after neat gentleman does not give Mei Lanfang write a play, avoid Xian abandons rural area far walk along Taiwan, its book is no good.
" Chinese crop and its are feral plant of close predestined relationship " on say, cucumber originates in India of the foot of mountain austral the the Himalayas, Sikkim to reach formerly Nepalese one belt. The Indian helps advance somebody's career at beginning before 3000. Pass into China to have two way, northern part follows Zhang Qian to enter, formed the cucumber of China north system, this is times of Chinese fierce emperor, the thing that BC controls 100 years. Another by Burmese pass into with the border in imprinting, formed the cucumber of Hua Na system. As a result of Han Tang period, culture centre of gravity of China is in northward, so northward all the way the introduction of cucumber history record is very clear, make clear cucumber of period of Tang Xuan an administrative unit in Xizang to help advance somebody's career early technology can arrive accurately year (the Christian era 740 years) .
Sui Zhangqian enters the crop of chinese mainland, mostly coronal with " introduced from the northern and western nationalities or from abroad " word, carrot, introduced from the northern and western nationalities or from abroad Sui, Hu Tao, the ancestor of cucumber also cannot avoid custom, say for cucumber. half on change dropped yellow last name, have episode among them.
Two say.
One of, du Bao " great undertaking gleaning records " : (great undertaking of the Sui Dynasty) 4 years (the Christian era 608 years) in September, ... change cucumber to be White Dew cucumber... .
One of, the Tang Dynasty " gleaning of a book on Chinese medicine " , to avoid stone is strapped when the Zhao after saying avoid as taboo and change. Ming Dynasty Zhu Guozhen " emerge an essay " insisting to say is advance generation, on time, about the same.
Shi Le is the Han nationality of Jie person blame, became a the emperor, have appearance play the ape, must place of course place a fair amount of confidence just resemble an appearance. Hold the post of moustache of people mess things up to go to the ground believing mouth bullshit, have owe gravity, make by force then the route that cucumber took caraway change name, abandon " introduced from the northern and western nationalities or from abroad " and " yellow " .
Evade one thing, in ancient time very formal, approximate network opinion on public affairs to direct correctly. Nanjing makes build Ye in moment of the Three Kingdoms, for emperor of Min of advance of steer clear of the name of minister Ye avoid as taboo, changed; Wide hill of Yangzhou original name, to avoid of Yang An avoid as taboo, called very long river. Not only local name such, use a plant also cannot escape by sheer luck. Know why the tiger still calls tiger? That is to evade of Tang Gaozu ancestor namely Li Yuan the name of his grandfather avoid as taboo, li Yuan's grandfather calls Li Hu. In develop emperor public government office, call carp constant red snapper, all the son name carp because of Confucius. Nevertheless, this bit of power and prestige also can play in courtyard of oneself government office only, arrived to send birthday present to weigh congratulate to happiness of old Buddha kind, return so that be written into the carp euqally. Of close a bit, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.established by Hong Xiuquan during the Taiping Revolution. the largest of pleasant uprisings in China's history that did not become a thing repeatedly rectified " admire evades model of written characters surely " come out, to avoid the name of his foreign grandfather Jesus avoid as taboo, " 10 thousand countries come Chao Jijing avoids model of written characters instructs " : Ye avoids say also, , word, revive avoids call Ta , Yi Jia. this word, express rise again, come to one's senses. Regrettablly is, be aed form of a address for an official or rich man by Ceng Jiu as day Beijing after blood of breach of Quan of avoid as taboo country is washed, celestial day king also does not have courage to open an eye to look at this world again.
Shi Le builds hind Zhao is in involute the manners and morals of the time is powerful temporarily. Hear the dance since chicken and Ji Ji midstream these two idiom know, below the Zu Tiliu that fights with Shi Le namely. Shi Le shows now Xing Tai, capital leaving north is not quite far, the name that suitable handgrip cucumber still does not forget in the years that flies violently in flames of war changed, visible cucumber is in the content that at that time already is common, quite common.
became clear why is cucumber surnamed yellow, other good said.
Mr Zhou Zunren is free collect " bitter tea essay " in clear person of a compose thanks the book review that city wall, table of contents cries " feed flavour miscellaneous chant note " . That book is a peotry anthology, "Become 101 in all, each coefficient character falls at the problem " (Xie Yong author's preface) . Make a poetry oneself, oneself are added note, saved later generations intelligence. Among them one notes say cucumber cloud: King melon, or all melon give birth to Yun Yixian, melon of friend name king. Still ear of squid lord You. The capital gives You Zao. Today south the person all breathes out king melon, boreal person all renown cucumber, king Huang Jinyin, the person is not divided south, pass bluff already long, cannot change then.
Putting aside say now, xie Yong is Shanghai person, the name at that time calls Jia Shanfeng town of short for the Jinghe River, a much prettier name. The person hard to avoid that pretty name abuttals is born also makes muddleheaded, in order to be born early or late denominate and " king " , still catch a squid to pay a back, according to this logic is pushed act, compare with my little sister, willing, my surname also must be gone to " king " lean on the word, heroes still does not have angry angry verbal, one height raises my father head leather belt rushs, allow to decide!
Nevertheless, thanked a gentleman to still say the word of truth of some of press close to, affirmed the difference of language of north and south. So Wang Shimao of little brother of chastity of world of king of reread Ming Dynasty " Yu Shu learning garden " when, had excuse heart. Face this to be south Nanjing bleach gens to leave one's native place the character of government-owned person place that officialdom swims says " king melon Yan Jing person optimal, in planted firebox, force unripe Hua Xie, small fact of the knot at the beginning of Feburary. " when, also can be excused quite. Wang Shimao's native place is Jiangsu too storehouse.
Compare private write relatively, government-owned compile a book still is take scientific drive. " annals of government office of Guang Xushun weather " : Cucumber namely cucumber, today the person that Beijing division was having small cucumber in Feburary, if slightness points to, be like,valence is held high rice, fan Yangui's guest, in order to shows precious also, actually igneous approach and unripe ear.
A word has two meanings, tell a reader overbearingly, not cranky draw a forced analogy, the original name of cucumber calls cucumber, did not differ. Another meaning, tell people, when this cucumber also has Jin Gui.
Xie Yong also does not object, and be in its " feed flavour miscellaneous chant note " cucumber in did farther specification: Boreal common still feeds new king melon, go out first, urgent the noble with carry out, noble also is a person of extraordinary powers with foretaste, prep before the Beginning of Summer. The person that its go out the earliest, although not beautiful, can money of two Yi Qian.
The booth that get large faces this kind of introduced from the northern and western nationalities or from abroad a place of strategic importance having the of great capacity, today is done not have tomorrow is not the practice that get along had a bit word, " gramineous bead a string " : See at the beginning of cucumber than ginseng, the little value that be like hairpin counts gold. Small matter cannot add life,
Wang Shimao, xie Yong, large wells balanced, these 3 says cucumber, produce in the winter, beijing word, make a hole child goods. Hole child goods is to turn over seasonal vegetable, add plant of lukewarm methodological implantation summer artificially in the support in warm hole in the winter. Fume earthnut leaf, fancy suiting, call hothouse flower. There still is one to be in a tourist attraction to call hothouse flower a depressed place in Beijing Zhongshan park now now, that exhibits the abuttals of flowers of those artificial and ecbolic summer to people in winter namely.
Turn over flowers and plants of seasonal implantation vegetables what is this technology strange thing, yuan Zaihan face had. Cha Shen goes " the sea of faces writes down " : Han Taiguan is planted field leek of wintry raw onion eatas surname, use up night accumulate fire, wait for lukewarm Chun Naisheng, does the thing see " Chinese book? Official of call together letter is passed " , issue early greens today namely its law. Stand inside Ming Dynasty, not hesitate thick value kitchens with offerring drive.
Bright Qing Dynasty during, beijing has wintry day to be bred technically turn over seasonal floral place, the hole is a flower that folk breathes out child. Beautiful hole child: Simple and easy wood is worn build, a house with walls of rammed earth of wall of area north earth, very child take mashed vegetable or fruit with broomcorn straw, before tall hind bottom north is low south tall, chao Na area has been papered with Dong Chang paper, along back wall the base that divide a layer becomes earthy stage, igneous way is opened below, it is furnace directly, another is a crock of human excrement. Flowers and trees, vegetables is planted go up in paper of stage of these a few earth, flowers and trees calls hothouse flower, vegetable (the summer such as cucumber, hyacinth bean, aubergine is vegetable) cry " hole child goods " . -- Deng cloud countryside " cloud countryside eats a word " .
Later, as industrial development, prosperous paper is replaced by plastic cloth east, path of fire of bricky build by laying bricks or stones turned a compound of sand into the canal, tutaizi was done not have, plant straight have an inoculation buckles the land under to go up in plastic cover. Wall of earth of a house with walls of rammed earth, a side south the face, with wide bamboo piece build arch, arch one's back is overspread with plastic cloth, the Fu on plastic cloth times with cattail mat roll put, daylighting heat preservation holds concurrently. Igneous path sticks boreal wall, the land that cultivates cultivated substance with place lies between fosse of one leg depth, fosse person for the road, warm canopy is low, convenient garden person walk activity also. Entrance place is blocked with thick cotton door curtain, furnace of bricky build by laying bricks or stones receives canal of a compound of sand to come loose hot, mouth Xiang Tian, leave hole having ash.
Hole child in make a fire, do not say to have mucky crock, that flavour really awful. Redneck is so extremely bitter, no matter be,earthing up a flower still is kind of cucumber, not be very at ease work. The cucumber that comes down at the beginning of March, jin Gui is inevitable then. Poor common people does not get make inquires, ask not to rise. What noble has expensive thing is expensive, pointing to the silver in bag to say completely.
Where is the spring of the poor person that when is Beijing and cucumber? It is the city below terrestrial cucumber when. The city below the terrestrial cucumber of old Beijing did not come down a few days with respect to cheap. 6789 months of of the summer cucumber between blot out the sky and cover up the earth. That battle array, only deep autumn the city below Chinese cabbage can have one to compare. At the beginning of changing, qiu Yishen, there always is the Long You since two cues platoon on the street, one is to buy chimney, one is to buy Chinese cabbage. Cucumber leaves town, otherwise. No matter blow,rain, there are those in the heart of the people before vegetable stall dear. This cannot be bought, then the home goes, have a plenty of.
Then derive went out to have a way sundrily.
Close with shallot bloat say bloat for cucumber green, green hot melon is fragile 2 flavour are equational; Cut man and perillaseed leaf chili to close bloat satisfy a craving for delicious food go with rice holds satisfy a craving concurrently. Ding Ge of fourth chili of pickles fourth cucumber mixes calling end 3 man, always eat not be bored with. Flat perhaps what also does not deserve, the knife was patted, balm of the mashed garlic on the dot gathers salt, pat cucumber go with wine to always eat to always have.
A bit of riches and honour have a way, roast duck barbecue matchs with melon, wooden Xi flesh is spruce with melon piece, qing Dynasty fries shelled fresh shrimps to draw out the melon arc assist of flesh to make with flay. Anxious smooth cutlet makes on, soft saute cutlet also is become, fry cake to be able to be put, do not be short of in noodles in soup, even of cool side of street edge sell also smoke did not take client empty shelves takes out Ca bed loiter to go up match cucumber in order to complement of silk of the cucumber in bowl use up.
Still remember those door between one's early years child on does gush wear " dish " is the word pulling pane of twigs of the chaste tree to stand toward dish on the ave of discharge cucumber 130? Those use calipers or steel needle measures a diameter to classification the cucumber of outfit, to sneak away continuously carry out form is good-looking be dropped by redneck with young other people -- that encounters wind small the little ground place that swings the gherkin that is in to be bent a bit, be written down? Bowl of china of that blue Bian Bai, the salted and fermented soya paste in the bowl, the appreciably in dish of edge of salted and fermented soya paste has knife rust flavour to be piled up very the melon of neat, still have impression? Beijing opera is put in the radio, sound giving gong can be stolen happy, associating cucumber strikes gong -- one hammer buying and selling, a two part allegorical saying with that unripe crisp, how long to say?
The cucumber that climbs to wear itchy of wool cloth with soft nap in that steals melon in the ground, the star of all over the sky. That goes out oneself melon seedlings side the wall is mounted dead alone the helianthus lever of Ting, the Na Duo that endures a wall to leaving is beautiful, maize flower, that only impatient bee of Hua Shanggong abdomen of yellow, the small melon that offends more finely than the little finger easily quivers, where does your concern go to? Still have well of king government office crossroad southeast horn often is the same as Cheng Xiang to did not tear open moment, how did that distinctive taste that makes acerbity cucumber become the history suddenly? The 6 sauce that reside surely breed melon still has, front door, 2 years did not go? Does sauce breed the jade green of melon returns so lukewarm profit?
Birthplace can latch boy far away from home, cate is a cord.
Be like cucumber, fu Yefu is gotten, cheap also cheap is gotten, still establish a lot.
