Every year around April 20th, we usher in the valley rain festival. The name "valley rain" comes from the ancient people's saying that rain was born of a hundred valleys, and rain is the most important feature of the valley rain festival. The rain of "valley rain" is more fresh and cheerful, and the first heavy rain of the year generally occurs during the rainy season of the valley, which is very beneficial to spring sowing. As the saying goes: "Qingming breaks snow, valley rain breaks frost", as the last festival of spring, the arrival of valley rain means that the cold wave weather is basically over, and summer is in sight.
If a color is used to represent the valley rain, it is undoubtedly pink. Peach blossoms, begonias and peonies bloom at this time are pink. Pink is a mixture of red and white, also known as concubine or concubine red. If red is striking and lively, and white is formal and pure, then pink is beautiful and soft, eclectic. In traditional opera, characters such as Hua Dan and Qing Yi usually use pink to embellish their faces to highlight the feminine positioning of the characters. In contemporary times, pink means sweet, romantic, elegant, innocent, whether it is home, clothing, jewelry, art, can see the traces of pink, it is traditional and modern, ancient and fashionable.
"Gu Yu Three Dynasties Look at Peonies", therefore, the peony flower is also called the Gu Yu Flower, and it is the only flower named after the solar terms. In traditional Chinese culture, peony flowers are often used as auspicious motifs for the decoration of porcelain, jade and other handicrafts. In the Shandong Museum's "Porcelain Rhyme - Collection of Ming and Qing Official Kiln Porcelain Exhibition", there is a pastel flower pattern jade pot spring vase from the Qing Dynasty, which is painted with blooming pink peonies. This cultural relic has a regular appearance, it is a trumpet mouth, a neck, a shoulder, a round belly shape, the inner wall is glazed with white glaze, the outer wall is painted with pastel floral ornaments, painted with blooming peonies, okra, begonia flowers and flying butterflies and other patterns, the bottom has the "Great Qing Dynasty Xuanun Year" red color letters. The peony flowers are large, full-shaped, pink and dripping, and with the shades of green leaves and flying butterflies, the picture reveals a strong sense of spring and is full of vitality. At that time, the jade pot spring vase was a practical instrument for holding wine, and later gradually evolved into ornamental decorative porcelain, which was fired in kilns after the Song Dynasty. This piece of official kiln ware is much more exquisite than the utensils made in the minyao kiln and its post-Republic of China period, and it is a rare treasure.
In this issue, anchor Xiaoke deliberately wore a string of pink crystals, plus the special support provided by the Hanfu brand "Thirteen More" and the costume photography brand "Splendid Datang" for the column, so that the video was full of romantic taste.
