The feeling of drying a cigarette pot

When I was young, I often watched my grandfather smoke a cigarette. His carefree appearance makes me look forward to the future. The ashtray is a tool to realize this vision, so I will have my own ashtray in the future, which has become my childhood ideal.

Ten years ago, I was a soldier in the army of smokers. Starting from nearly two packs of cigarettes a day, I felt that I couldn't support the economy and had the idea of smoking dry cigarettes, so I bought a dry cigarette pot. I never thought that I would be seen by the unit leader without smoking for a few days. He said: I don't think I promoted you, smoking a cigarette and pretending to be an old man.

In a word, let me hide the dry hookah and give up my hobby of smoking, but my love for dry hookah has not diminished.

After the New Year, a friend gave me a broom and a smoking pot pole, but because wood porcelain was not easy to process, I gave it up and gave it to a hard time. Some people also sent Zhu Mo tobacco rods, but they were easy to crack and gave up; Others went to the rural exchange meeting with acquaintances, strolled around and looked at the dry hookah. They are either dissatisfied or worthless and never do it. I also tried to transform my grandfather's smoking pot, but I felt disrespectful and gave up.

Some time ago, the epidemic prevention and control was a bit loose. When I passed the farmer's market one morning, I found that my father's stall selling hookahs and pole was deserted, so I looked around. In the face of my honest father, I bought a dry smoking pot with a sense of intimacy.

It really doesn't match: the cigarette rod is too thin, the cigarette holder is not atmospheric, and the copper tube lacks the aesthetic feeling of brazing flowers, although it has a back.

However, this dry hookah is the basis for me to firmly have a satisfactory hookah.

By chance, a friend in the painting and calligraphy circles heard about my hookah complex and gave me a dry hookah pole, saying it was made of Nanshan full-flowered shrub.

In fact, according to the biological name, what we call the whole flower locally should be called the whole wood. Tongtuo wood is called "Cao Tong" because of its big pith, light and soft texture and white color, and sliced paper is called "Cao Tong paper", which is used to refine paper flowers and small handicrafts. Chinese medicine regards medulla tetrapanacis as a diuretic, which has the effect of cooling and dissipating heat.

According to the characteristics of large pith and soft pith, its pith is easy to be punctured, which is convenient for making the bong rod. According to teacher Wei, a woodcut artist in our region, making all the flowers into dry hookahs is one of the best tobacco stems in Guanzhong area. In short, I was very touched and really met my good friend who really treated me.

Next, it is to process the hookah rod. Dry in the shade, poke through the pith of stem, scrape off the outer skin, and cut into two sections according to the inner diameter of cigarette holder and pipe.

Yum's cigarette rod is a bit monotonous. He thinks carving will be better, so he asks Mr. Ma, a pyrography artist, to decorate the cigarette rod with pyrography. Originally, I thought that flipping Xiangyun should be more in line with the calm philosophy of "everything is a smoke cloud", but it was run over by the idea of "a handful of dead plum blossoms", which turned into a thoughtful feeling and might be ridiculed as "sentimental Ying Xiao Wo".

The pendant ornaments of the cigarette pot are exquisite. I chose an old Yu Pei with a gossip pattern: Yu Pei is a treasure, but the dry opium pot has become a treasure in my heart; Gossip means indifference to life, all gossip need not be taken seriously, and happiness in the present is the true meaning.

Tobacco bags must be big red, just to celebrate, especially golden ones with longevity patterns, which make people feel happy and refreshed.

The cigarette case is mahogany, which was given by a nephew in Calligraphy and Painting Street. Cigarette block, also called cigarette packet block and cigarette packet block, is an obstacle to prevent cigarette packets (bags) from sliding freely on the tobacco rod, and is also an ornament of the tobacco pot.

My dream came true when I was young, but I can't smoke with it. After all, the bad habit of smoking is not good for your health, and it also affects the surrounding environment. This can be regarded as abandonment in inheritance.
