There are stalks in any era, but what stalks are there among ancient literati?

Speaking of some stalks of the ancients, we really can't help laughing. Even now, not many people can do something.

The first thing we want to say is that Zeng Guofan loves to write elegiac couplets.

Zeng Guofan has a very special hobby, that is, he likes to write elegiac couplets for people. Elegiac couplets, that is, couplets to be hung on both walls after death, express people's grief and cannot be written to the living.

Zeng Guofan and Mr. Zeng are a good image of an enthusiastic citizen. As soon as he heard that someone had died, he immediately wrote elegiac couplets in other people's homes, and other people's homes might not react.

But people can't die every day, can they? So he can't write elegiac couplets every day, just write elegiac couplets in his own home.

Once, a friend came to his house to play, and when he saw him writing couplets, he wanted to have a look, but Zeng Guofan resolutely refused to let his friends read them. But this friend is also a stubborn temper, and he has to look at Zeng Guofan's couplets. After all kinds of looting, I finally saw the couplet, and then I almost died, because this time it was written for him.

Zeng Guofan began to sketch elegies because of one's itchy fingers. It turned out to be a joke.

Besides, the second particularly famous terrier comes from Zhang Ji, a poet in the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Ji can be said to be Du Fu's brain powder. His worship of Du Fu is deeper than that of many fans now. Although he is also famous, he feels that he is not as talented as Du Fu, so he writes Du Fu's poems on paper, then burns the paper, wipes the dust on the paper with honey and eats a few mouthfuls every day.

Just as we eat pig brain to supplement pig brain now, Zhang Ji is eating literary talent to supplement literary talent.

The creativity of the ancients is not weaker than that of modern people, and many of them make people laugh. You can get to know them better when you have time.
