Fun tea couplets-the combination of tea and couplets

Because of the elegance and leisure of drinking tea, it is often combined with tasting poetry, which is also the unique artistic conception of life in China, and the couplets of drinking tea can best reflect this artistic conception of life. Poetry is made up of tea. It's fun to taste tea slowly and savor poetry carefully. Everyone knows Zheng Banqiao's couplets about tea:

Sit down, sit down, sit down;

Tea, make tea, make good tea.

This couplet has clear language, easy to understand and neat rhythm. The irony contained in it is of course related to an experience of Zheng Banqiao: once he visited Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang, the monk who hosted him in the temple thought he was just an ordinary tourist and casually said, "Sit down and have tea." Zheng Banqiao ignored him, but carefully appreciated the paintings and calligraphy on the wall. Seeing him like this, the monk thought that this man was probably not an ordinary layman, so he greeted him a little politely: "Please sit down and make tea." As he spoke, he stepped forward and asked his name. When he learned that it was a famous painter Zheng Banqiao, he immediately smiled and said respectfully, "Please sit down and make tea." When Zheng Banqiao left, the monk took out a piece of paper and ink and asked him to write a couplet for Jinshan Temple, so there was a couplet similar to a doggerel above, which mocked the snobbish social atmosphere.

However, Zheng Banqiao's couplets are secular, far from tea and tea art, and more teahouses, teahouses and teahouses' couplets directly reflect the essence of tea. Such as "clear spring cooking sparrow tongue; Boil the dragon ball alive ","Cao Rui shoots his tongue; Come and try beautiful sentences such as "Er Quan on earth" and couplets directly embedded in tea names, such as "Mountains are everywhere; "Biluochunxiang Wan Li drunk" and so on, give people a feeling of adding points to green tea, showing the natural artistic conception of fragrant fragrance and the brand implication of famous tea.

Others are based on the eulogies left by poets and writers of past dynasties, which are naturally brought together or slightly modified to achieve another taste. For example, when Qian Qi's Poem on Tea and Li Bai's Poem on Drinking are combined, a new couplet is formed: "Yang Xian's spring tea is Yao Cao Bi; Lanling wine tulips. " Another example is Su Shi's famous sentence "I want to compare the West Lake to the West Lake; Heavy makeup is always appropriate. " Change it to "I want to compare the West Lake to the West Lake; Always beautiful. " There is also an open-minded charm. There is also the double beauty of "clear water printing green hills" and "tea on Roby Peak", which makes people wander briskly in the imagination of the beautiful scenery of tea making.

What tea reveals is "love". Tea has existed in China for thousands of years, and has already spread its rich fragrance to every inch and corner of the motherland. Tea tastes lyrical, and there are countless couplets devoted to tea. Shallow: "a cup of small world; Taste human feelings "; Elegant as: "a thousand glasses of wine can't make a bosom friend;" A cup of green tea can be intoxicating. "Simple:" When I wake up, my tea is full; Live a good life. "These tea couplets are a good blend of people's real feelings.

Tea is essential for entertaining guests, entertaining guests and connecting feelings. There is such a couplet in a Jiangxi guild hall in Zhenjiang: most of the seats are fellow villagers, and they like to collapse tea and cigarettes, which is suitable for Nanpu to face the clouds and the west hills; Don't open a scenic spot on the river. In the past two months, try to see the snow waves flowing eastward and the clear clouds in the north.

This is a unique couplet, a culture with endless meanings, which is constructed by cultural people using the unique nature of Chinese and using rhetorical devices such as mosaic, homophonic and palindrome to skillfully combine friendship and artistic conception with specific names and teahouses. In the process of enjoying the tea party, you will gradually be infected by a charming culture and cultivate your mood.
