The affection of plants

-Comment on "Everything gives me affection"?

? Plants are silent and independent, as if they are your emotional demands in the world. They don't exist to please anyone. When your tired eyes are immersed in the green, you get a little pleasure and security. Like plants, they need very little, as long as soil, air, sunshine and water, it will give you a shade, a touch of color and a wisp of fragrance. Sometimes, I like to know about plants. Although I don't know what family and genus it is, I always feel that those plants are like friends around me, and they don't feel lonely with these familiar friends.

? I have also read some essays about vegetation for this reason. Alai's Vegetation Utopia is mainly based on the vegetation in Chengdu. The anthology has a middle-aged style, but it always feels too formal and there are not many places that people can remember.

? Shen Shuzhi's "Flowers of Eighty and Ninety" is trivial and plain, with a little fresh literary style.

? Xin Xu's Caiqing is informative and illustrated, which can be used as a teaching material to distinguish plants, insects and birds.

Ling Xiaoxi's Sixteen Beats among Flowers explains flowers and trees from three aspects: poetry, sound and painting. This book is full of poetic ethereal beauty, but after reading it completely, I feel that I lack touching feelings. Like a beauty in the clouds, beauty is beautiful, but it is not grounded.

? There is no need to elaborate on Wang Lao's "human vegetation". This old urchin's essay on vegetation, which appeals to both refined and popular tastes, returns to the original, with childlike cunning and open-minded view of the world, makes people laugh and read it carefully.

? A simple flower seems simple, but if you understand it thoroughly, then a plant covers so much knowledge. It can be said that most articles about plants will be quoted from classics, which are mixed with many allusions. However, like Cao Pingbo, there are too few plant essays that skillfully connect the literary and historical allusions, plant knowledge, her own life experience and life thinking in The Book of Songs, Songs of the South, Compendium of Materia Medica, Classic of Mountains and Seas, Chinese Classics and Tea Classics into an organism linked by blood, giving people a relaxed and enjoyable reading and enjoyment.

I am in the official account of WeChat; The column read a series of articles about plants by Cao Pingbo. After reading one article after another, people feel that the writing style is so transparent and sophisticated that it doesn't look like it was written by a girl born after 90. Knowing that Cao Pingbo's article had been published, I bought her "Everything gives me affection" online and read it carefully.

She wrote about 52 kinds of plants once a week, which is exactly one year. And these 52 articles are divided according to "warm summer and cool cold", which means "spring, summer, autumn and winter, each has its own needs, warm summer and cool cold, and each has its own place." The plants in Cao Pingbo's eyes are affectionate. The vegetation is moist, and the girl's words are stained with talent and aura because of the vegetation. It's easy and pleasant to read, which makes people smile.

? At the beginning, it says, "On the roof of a cafe in Yangshuo, I almost screamed when I saw the biggest picture of Prince I have ever seen." Another example is this article on solar terms in the long summer. She wrote about the solemnity and sense of ceremony that people treated solar terms in the past. She wrote: "In the past, festivals were just festivals, like shiny buttons, firmly nailed to the sleeves of time. Unbutton a button and you can catch a glimpse of the fresh meat in an inch of the world. " Ha ha, how can such clever words not attract you to continue reading?

? Unconsciously, people reach middle age. At this age, they have experienced some ups and downs in life, and they have more thoughts on life while studying. Therefore, only those words with a sense of life and a philosophy of life can move me more. Cao Pingbo's words have such characteristics.

For example, this article is written for the neem tree in her childhood memory. She wrote: "I gradually became convinced that life is really not a straight line, but an arc, so I have to tell myself that I will never meet those two neem flowers again in my life. Now this is not the way to satisfy them. After all, in fact, there are few resolute departures in the world, and more are the return of thousands of foreshadowing. "

Such as; This article is about the cognition of tea: "It seems to be a unique thing in my hometown, which provides all the people in the world with the possibility of looking back countless times, so that they can expect their old friend Wan Li to return at the steepest night in the fireworks in different places, and then have a drink under the lamp and say that they have a lifetime."

? If you write bougainvillea, "They are lying on the doors and windows of houses eroded by wind and rain, as if shaking hands with stubborn fate. Since then, they no longer want to travel around the world, but just want to live here forever. "

? My favorite is this one. Cao Pingbo wrote that her father was old and always felt that he had accomplished nothing and was unhappy. Only when he recalls picking raspberries and thunder flowers in his childhood will he become gentle. She wrote: "I have always felt that I can't go back. This may be considered as the most deserted four words in the world, and I can cry for it ... After so many years, he finally reached middle age, and every time I saw his white hair, I felt sorry for it. Life is marked on the boat, trying to remember the past, thinking that I will have plenty of leisure to realize all my long-cherished wishes in the future. Who knows that water can carry a boat and also overturn it. " This passage is very similar to my middle-aged life. I have accomplished nothing, and I am always depressed. However, water pushes the boat, and I can't go back.

? This is the case with Cao Pingbo's writing style, which is smooth, round and transparent, with the beauty of agility, artistic conception and philosophical thinking. When reading, I often feel close to my heart.

? What is vegetation? Vegetation is the little green in our life, providing us with shelter and comfort. The writer Wang Kailing once said: "The vegetation is deep and blessed; Many flowers and fruits are born and raised. I think that if one day, I am sent to the wilderness with a volume of Compendium of Materia Medica, I can live and be carefree. "

Cao Pingbo, a post-90 s girl, said: vegetation is the sweet ending of the season and the poetic ending of the year. It witnessed the heavy moment when people sat in the barn drinking spring mash, and also witnessed the biggest and most impermanent life and death ballad in the world. When life becomes a long line of no return, but fortunately it is accompanied by vegetation and the four seasons have cycles, they tie a rope on everyone's life path to record it. Therefore, vegetation is not vegetation. Vegetation is what you need to measure and measure. People who love each other must remember it. People who know each other are waiting to look back. People who travel far away have to return to their hometown and meet every grass, tree, stone and tile in their memory.
