How did people in the Song Dynasty spend their weekends?

The Song Dynasty (960- 1279) has a history of several thousand years. At that time, the Song Dynasty was prosperous and open to the outside world, and "the Eight Wastes fought together, and all countries shared the same wisdom". Not only is the business atmosphere very rich, but the level of civilization is also in the forefront of the world.

Therefore, the weekend life of the people in the Song Dynasty is also quite rich and enviable. Today, we will "cross" to the Song Dynasty to have a look. Maybe people in the Song Dynasty were poorer than we were on weekends!

▌ In the morning-wash your face, brush your teeth and have breakfast.

People in the Song Dynasty would wake up when the timekeeper told the time, and then wash their faces and brush their teeth. Yes, you are not mistaken. Song people didn't have to brush their teeth with their fingers, because there was a toothbrush at that time, and the material was very domineering!

This is a toothbrush used by Song people. Don't think that the ancients brushed their teeth with their fingers.

After washing, everyone went out for breakfast. According to Lu, ordinary people in the Song Dynasty didn't turn on the stove at home. Every morning, many breakfast shops are very busy. For ten or twenty pence, you can buy breakfast such as "tonifying lung", "fried lung" and porridge.

Get up early in the morning, the pavilion is far away from the mountain. Facing the full crown towel, ask for sleep and arrange water. My family and I are rich and thrifty, and we don't envy five-Hou mackerel, soft cook the meat and cooked japonica, which means sweet. Walking in the atrium, the clouds are light and the wind is light. In Zhudao, sit still and sing at will. Wandering around the wine is ripe, calling people in the community, flowers and stones, waterside pavilions, and then falling asleep when drunk.

▌ noon-play football, golf and eat out.

If the weather is fine, the weekend is a good time to play football. Of course, people in the Song Dynasty called it Cuju. In this regard, Lu You, a poet in the Song Dynasty, wrote in Can Chun: "Young people in the countryside know this and are called Cuju everywhere." There is a reason why playing football is so popular, because it was initiated by Song Taizu.

Some literati with poor physical strength will choose a more elegant golf, that is, "pounding pills." Like modern times, this sport is also a status symbol.

This is the "golf" painted in the ancient "Autumn Banquet".

Exercise consumes so much, of course, you should have a good lunch. According to the Tokyo Dream Record, "there are 72 stores in Zheng Jing, and the rest are called Zufen". In other words, there are 72 big hotels and countless small restaurants here, which is simply a paradise for eating goods! Reveal a little secret: when eating, not only people help pour wine, but also singers sing to entertain!

Swing on the swing, too lazy to rub delicate hands. Beside her, the thin Germany hung with crystal dew, and the sweat on her chest permeated with the thin silk robe. Suddenly, a guest came. She was desperate. She walked away without shoes, only wearing socks, and even the gold pin on her head fell off. She ran away shyly and leaned against the door, smelling the fragrance of plum flowers.

▌ Afternoon-Listen to music, have tea and order takeout.

According to the Tokyo Dream, there were as many as ten "Washe Goulan" in the Song Dynasty, and there were "more than 50 large and small Goulan" in Bianjing alone, and some even "can accommodate thousands of people", which has reached the concert scale by visual inspection. There are many kinds of songs for you to choose from, including short singing, pure singing, official tune, zaju and so on. The most popular songs are all here.

Those who don't like listening to music can also have tea at home. The tea-ordering method in the Song Dynasty was very famous, and it became popular immediately after it was introduced to Japan, which made the Japanese tea ceremony.

When drinking tea, you can also talk about the twelve constellations. The study of constellations in the Song Dynasty has been quite in-depth and widely used in various fields such as fortune telling. Lao Shi is a constellation fan. He just blackened Capricorn to pieces.

Southeast shape wins, Sanwu city, Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times. Smoke willow painting bridge, wind curtain and green curtain, interlaced with 100 thousand people. Clouds and trees surround the dike sand, and the raging waves roll frost and snow, and the natural hazards are endless. The city is full of jewels, and every household in Luo Qi is competing for beauty.

Heavy lakes overlap Yue Jiaqing. There are Sanqiu cassia seed and Shili Lotus. Qiang tube clear sky in Wan Li, night, enjoy the lotus. Riding a thousand times with high teeth, listening to flutes and drums and enjoying the haze. The map of the future will be good. I will go back to Fengchi to boast.

In the evening-the night market fights for tea, writes lyrics and paints.

In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, the curfew was completely lifted, and the people of the Song Dynasty lived a colorful nightlife. There are many teahouses near the Bianhe Hongqiao. Rich people often come here to "make tea", and winners usually win a pot of Longjing. This was quite popular in the Northern Song Dynasty when tea culture prevailed. Besides, people can listen to books and eat snacks while drinking tea.

Song Dynasty people who were eating and drinking at night.

"Yu Shi Ming Yan" contains: "Sit in the teahouse. Wang Er, who runs a teahouse, came in with a tea lamp and sang tea. The officer took the tea and looked at Wang Erdao:' Don't borrow people here.' Wang Erdao:' Might as well.' After waiting for a long time, I saw a man and a woman named monk, holding a plate and shouting,' sell quail!' The official waved and shouted, "Buy a baby." When the monk saw the call, he walked into the teahouse with a tray and put it on the table. Put a yellow strip through your mouth, pinch some salt and put it in front of the official, saying,' official, eat your mouth.' "

When people who are full of food and drink come home, they will splash ink, fill in words and draw pictures during tea and record this happy weekend.

It takes time to laugh when you are drunk. Recently, I began to feel that ancient books are completely useless. Matsumoto was drunk last night and asked Matsumoto how drunk I was. I only doubt that I will come and help when I am loose. Push with my hand!

Mr. Chen Yinque once said: China's culture is "the acme of Zhao and Song". Because the literati in the Song Dynasty had their own landscapes in their hearts; People in the Song Dynasty often know more about beauty and life than people today. If you lived in the Song Dynasty, would you know more about the meaning of pursuing life?
