Chapter 211 211 Calendar (asking for monthly votes)
Yao Xiaoqing went to the fields and saw that the radish seedlings were growing very well.
Turning to the taro field, I saw Xiang and several women digging taro. Over there, Shan Amu and several women were sowing wheat seeds.
Shan Amu saw Yao Xiaoqing and said worriedly: "Xiaoqing, I'm still a little worried that these wheat seeds will freeze to death."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Amu, I just used a small and a half wheat seeds. Let's try planting for one season and see if we can grow wheat."
She paused and said, "I'm worried that the wheat seeds will freeze to death. Let's do this! After you sow the wheat seeds, use a small stone to crush the soil and bury the wheat seeds in the soil. It should prevent them from freezing to death."
Shan Amu nodded, "I understand, just like covering the taro with soil, covering the wheat seeds with a layer of soil."
"Yes, come back after you finish peeing."
Yao Xiaoqing went to the kitchen to find a few charcoal sticks as thick as her little finger, stuffed them into a reed tube, found a straight piece of thick bamboo, and took it back to the yard. She took out a notepad from her bag, which contained her estimate.
According to the recorded date, today is late September.
Judging from the above records, it started snowing not long after autumn last year. This year, except for the dry weather, everything else is normal.
Yao Xiaoqing thought that the water in the cave had been flowing continuously, and the Heavenly Stem had not had much influence on the tribe.
When Jiang Li arrived, he saw Yao Xiaoqing sitting at the table in the main room and walked in with a smile, "Qing Wu, I heard Uncle Hu say that you made the paper."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, "Yes, I also left some window paper for you. I wanted to give you a surprise." She said, taking out the window paper and the selected paper placed in the frame.
on the table.
"Great, well done." Jiang Li held a piece of paper and marveled, "Qing Wu, you are so amazing, is there anything else you can't do?"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "What I asked you to do is something I don't know how to do."
Jiang Li smiled and nodded, "As you say, I will definitely do it."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "I thought I'm already here, I can't live in a muddle-headed way! Just before the autumn harvest last year, I chose a full-moon night and started recording from that day."
"Because we have a Gregorian calendar and a lunar calendar, most of the younger generation like us can't remember the solar terms of the lunar calendar. Oh! There are also twelve zodiac signs. I only remember that after the Year of Rat, it is the Year of Ox and the Year of Tiger. I am behind
I just can’t remember it.”
She took out the notebook and pushed it in front of Jiang Li, "The time and weather I recorded are on it. I want you to help me draw a big calendar and paste it on the wall, and mark the lunar solar terms. I will have one in the future.
Reference.”
Jiang Li picked up the notebook and looked at the date and weather recorded on it. He smiled mockingly, "Qing Wu, compared with you, I am really a seven-foot man. This is the attitude you should have in life.
I have to learn from you in the future."
"Hey!" Yao Xiaoqing smiled and waved, "Don't praise me. I just want to make myself more comfortable."
"If you want to make yourself more comfortable, you have to have that ability." Jiang Li said with a smile, "If you just want to draw an almanac to let everyone know what year, month and day today is, it's easy. Just these twenty-four
I heard that the exact time of the solar terms is calculated using the solar meridian."
"This is the first time I've heard of the Sun's Yellow Meridian! Do you know how to calculate it?"
Jiang Li looked at Yao Xiaoqing with a look of shame, "I don't understand either. But it is also said in the solar terms song: a year is divided into twelve months, and the twenty-four months are closely connected. According to the Gregorian calendar, the two seasons do not change every month.
In the first half of the year, it falls on the sixth day of the year, and in the second half of the year, it falls on the eighth day, and on the third day of the year. These are the festivals, and the difference is only one or two days.
The most important thing is that we don’t know whether the dates written down are accurate. If we don’t require precise time, I can draw one based on the Jin Dynasty’s almanac, do you agree?”
After Yao Xiaoqing heard this, he thought it would be better to draw one according to the almanac of the Jin Dynasty. "Okay, I will draw it according to the almanac of the Jin Dynasty. When you mark the numbers, please use the way I wrote."
"Okay!" Jiang Li readily agreed, picked up paper, pen and bamboo pieces and began to draw, "We started recording this January, and this year is the first year of Yaoshan..."
Two hours later, Jiang Li had completed four calendar paintings.
There is also a picture of a big golden rat lying on a pile of corn and beans on each picture.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at the cute golden rat and the neat fonts on the painting and praised: "Jiang Li, your calligraphy and painting are good."
Jiang Li smiled and pointed at the simplified Chinese characters on the notebook, "I told you not to be angry. I found that the characters you wrote were missing arms and legs. Is this how the characters are written in your place, or is there some other reason?
"
Yao Xiaoqing glanced at him and said, "What's there to be angry about? We have simplified and traditional Chinese characters, but what you write is traditional Chinese characters."
"Oh!" Jiang Li suddenly realized, "So you have two kinds of characters, so when you take the scientific examination, do you also use two fonts?"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "All exams are in simplified Chinese." She took a calendar and the remaining paper, rolled them together and put them in the basket, "Take these papers back to write, draw and play."
"Okay!" Jiang Li readily agreed, then thought about it and said, "Qing Wu, I'll help you write two thousand-character texts for you, and you can teach them how to read."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded with a smile on her face, "Okay!"
Jiang Li felt that her smile was as bright as the morning glow, bright and moving. He raised his lips and said with a smile: "When I have free time, I will find some paint, draw next year's calendar, and dye some red paper so that I can write Spring Festival couplets during the New Year.
, draw New Year pictures, and get together to celebrate the New Year.”
"Okay!" Yao Xiaoqing looked at him with a smile, "I'm just waiting for your paint."
Looking at her smile, Jiang Li suddenly felt a little hot on his face, so he concealed it and lifted up his backpack, "I'll go back first. You wait for me to get the paint."
Yao Xiaoqing took two steps forward, "Walk slowly!"
"Okay!" Jiang Li waved his hand and left in a hurry.
Yao Xiaoqing turned around and posted one calendar in the main room, one in the stoneware room, and one in the canteen.
Hua held her waist and walked to the calendar, "Xiaoqing, why did you draw a big mouse eating corn and beans?"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "This is called a calendar. You see, September 19th is today, and tomorrow will be 20th..."
Hua looked at her with a blushing face and said, "Xiaoqing, I can only count, but I haven't memorized the numbers you taught me."
"Be lazy!" Yao Xiaoqing smiled and nodded her forehead, "Wait until I teach you again."
"Hey!" Hua touched her belly and responded with a smile.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at her swollen belly and said, "Hua, how long will it take for you to have a baby?"
"Mom said next spring." Hua smiled happily.
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "It's still early!"
At this time, Shan Amu came in carrying a blue taro and said, "Xiao Qing, it's raining lightly. Should Mu Feng and the others be back today?"
