Nothing but wine and poetry.

This is a famous sentence in Bai Juyi's poems about drinking. Of course, when he said "do everything possible", it was relative to seeing friends off. There are not only wine and poems in life, but also many things to do. I've lived most of my life. Every time I look back, my favorite hobby in my life is drinking. Poetry is also a hobby, but I often write small poems, which is after retirement.

? I have a good reputation for drinking. My friends and people who know me will say that I will drink a lot in front of me or behind my back. I remember when I was working in a trade union in Anhui Province in the 1980s, I invited three colleagues (of course, they were all good drinkers) to have a drink at home. First, everyone gave out a bottle of Gu Jing wine (at that time, Gu Jing wine was three yuan per bottle, which was very expensive, because my salary was only more than 50 yuan per month). During the Spring Festival, everyone was in high spirits. After each person successfully drank a bottle, they were still wanting more. I ignored my family's persuasion again and again. At that time, my family lived on the fifth floor of the back building of the Provincial Federation of Trade Unions. When a colleague came downstairs, he stumbled to the last stair and rolled down. His skin is blue and swollen. Fortunately, he was young at that time and returned to normal after two days of drunkenness. Although it happened more than 30 years ago, it seems to be in front of us. To be clear here, although I love drinking, I know that few people call me an alcoholic, because I rarely drink by myself, and I don't socialize or drink for days. After drinking, I often write some poems and essays to express my heart, or suddenly have some ideas to do something beneficial that I like. Needless to say, I also made some "fools" because I was drunk. Sometimes, I accidentally got my friend drunk and even almost died. Now that I think about it, I dare not regret it. But one thing is certain. Although I often lose my manners when I am drunk, I have never lost my virtue. ...

? Therefore, when I was working in Anhui Federation of Trade Unions, I was called "four drinks" by my colleagues in the government. 1993 After being transferred to Shenzhen Sports Bureau, the reputation of drinking only increased. Now I often drink after retirement, and I can drink well. Half a catty of liquor is not drunk. One more thing, although I am retired now, I still have many friends looking for me. Just a few days ago, I had a three-night drink with a friend who came to Shenzhen from Hefei on business. I invited my friend to drink, but I dare not say whether the food is good or not. Wine must be controlled enough. Sometimes wine, white wine and red wine are served together, and finally beer is served and "gargle" is said. I am afraid that others will not drink well, so I often propose a toast to them. When I drink too much wine, there will often be a scene in my poem: "The wine hangs at the end and laughs silently"-the wine really goes down, and I also raise my glass to propose a toast.

? Why I can drink, now that I think about it, it may be caused by family heredity and the influence of life atmosphere. Anyone who knows my family knows that my parents are very hospitable. Because I am the eldest son and my parents are older, I am often called to the table to propose a toast to my uncles and aunts. Over time, I gradually became addicted to alcohol. In 68, I was sent to the countryside. Although my life is hard, sometimes I like to drink some wine because of depression or festivals or when I meet villagers' happy events. At that time, I drank 90 cents a catty of dry sweet potato wine, although it was very spicy. After I went to college and worked, drinking became a common occurrence.

? Why do I love drinking? Because wine has too many benefits.

? China's wine culture is profound and profound. There is a saying in Hanshu: "Wine is the first of the hundred rituals." Ming Xuanzong also said in the Book of Wine: "No wine is no gift." Wine is not only a stimulating drink, but also a cultural drink with special connotation. Drinking is not only a life and eating behavior, but also a social and cultural activity. In today's "no wine, no table", "the table is always full and the wine in the cup is not empty" can be described as a true portrayal of banquets and dinners.

? Sun Simiao, the drug king of the Western Wei Dynasty, is said to have lived 1, 4 1 year. He has a famous saying, "wine is the best medicine." Since ancient times, wine and medicine have been inextricably linked. Let's look at the traditional writing of doctors-there is a unitary, unitary person and wine under the word doctor.

Of course, you can't drink too much. The discussion of wine in traditional Chinese medicine has deepened the cultural connotation of wine. Therefore, whether at the dinner table on holidays or at the usual banquet, we can't ignore the medicinal properties of wine. The medicinal properties of wine are mild and restrained, which is beneficial to health while setting off the atmosphere. Instead of "taking wine as a pulp, running amok, getting drunk and trying to exhaust its essence ...", we can "live in harmony with God and come to the end of our lives when we live to 100 years old" (Su Wen's On Ancient Innocence)

? As we all know, China is an ancient country with poems handed down from generation to generation, and it is also an ancient country rich in famous wines. Poetry is an elegant literary miracle produced by human spiritual labor; Wine is the essence of human material production. In China, since ancient times, poetry and wine have been intertwined and formed an indissoluble bond, thus forming a unique "China poetry and wine culture" in China. The word "wine" appeared 63 times in The Book of Songs, such as "a gentleman has wine" and "Xiaoya". Fish is a beautiful Xiaoya. Lucky day ",said:" Be polite and generous to the guests. " Wait a minute. This is a sweet wine. After the Han Dynasty, there were more poems about wine. Su Wu's farewell poem to Li Ling: "I have a bottle of wine to give to people far away" is very touching. Cao Cao's "Singing to wine, what is life like?" This is a famous saying in the world. Ruan Ji, the seven sages of the bamboo forest, intoned, "It is rare to be a clean man, but a good meeting is rare. I can't talk about wine, it's sad and bitter. " A sad sentence is to drown your sorrows in wine. Tao Qian's fifth drinking poem, "Picking chrysanthemums under the hedge, leisurely seeing Nanshan", is famous all over the world. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Yu Xin said in his poem: "A few glasses of wine are exhausted, and the situation is unknown"; Zhang Lu's poem says: "Sincere to wine, mellow to wine"; And Zhang Zheng's poem "When you sing jade wine, sit down and drink gold" are all well-known sentences. After the Tang and Song Dynasties, poems about drinking became more famous! I like Tang Weng-shou's poem "Drinking" very much: "Never hesitate to get drunk for a hundred years, but Yi Deng can get rid of eternal worries". Li Bai's "If the sky doesn't love wine, the wine star is not in the sky. If the land does not love wine, there should be no Jiuquan in the land. " "After 360 days, you will get drunk every day. There are 36 thousand days in a hundred years, and there must be 300 cups every day. " When you are drunk, you are a guest, and poetry becomes a sense of god. "He sang more poems about wine. Du Fu's sentence, "The west wind gradually sets in the east, and the water in Yuan Ye adds a golden cup", is stirring! Bai Juyi's "One New Year's Wine, Two New Year's Poems" is quite fresh and interesting. The ancients, like people today, regarded wine as a character. A poem by Tang and Meng Jiude said: "Wine is an ancient mirror, which takes people's hearts away." When Lu You was drinking in Song Dynasty, he did not forget to praise Li Bai: "Taibai has ten poems and nine words of wine, and the wine man does not talk about mountains without poems." Su Shi even boasted about wine: "Life is a miracle, and he washed away my troubles." Huang Tingjian also loved wine all his life: "The branch of Huang Ju was born in a slight cold, so don't let the glass dry in life." In The Drinking Poet, women don't let men and women don't. Li Qingzhao, a famous poetess, loves wine as much as Li Bai and Su Shi. Who doesn't know this sentence "It rained suddenly last night, but I didn't sleep long. "?

It has been an indisputable fact since ancient times that poets prefer drinking. The most prosperous period of the combination of poetry and wine was the Tang Dynasty. The wine culture in Tang poetry is a blend of emotion, wine and poetry, which complement each other. As we all know, Li Bai, Du Fu and Bai Juyi all like drinking, and many immortal works were created and handed down at this hearty time.

? There are countless examples of poetic wine culture formed by modern poets' love for wine. Just tell a short story. Chen Yi is a world-famous "Marshal Poet". During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, Chen Yi led the New Fourth Army into Maoshan. At that time, it was very difficult for the army to supply, especially medicine, and Chen Yi was worried about it. On one occasion, he heard that the owner of "Qi Yaoxian Clinic" in Zhenjiang City had escaped into Jiufu Palace in Damaofeng, Maoshan, because of the chaos in the world, so he found Qi Yaoxian with great difficulty. Qi Yaoxian has three virtues: good wine, good chess and good poetry. When he met Chen Yi, he happily said to the little Taoist around him, "I'm glad to meet General Chen today. I am in a good mood. Go and get the wine. " Later, Qi Yaoxian looked at Chen Yi and said, "Medicine can cure fake diseases." Chen Yi laughed and replied, "I'm really worried about wine." They then played a game of chess. Finally, Qi Yaoxian took out all his collected medicinal materials and gave them to Chen Yi, and designated Jiufu Palace as the General Hospital of Jiangnan Command of the New Fourth Army.
