I am many years in the courtyard

Chapter 564, Teaching

In 1986, the capital city was filled with bright fireworks and a strong flavor of the new year.

"Happy New Year to Grandpa. I wish Grandpa good health, all the best in the New Year, and live a prosperous life."

"Happy New Year to grandma. I wish grandma good luck and good health, always smile, and good luck in the Year of the Tiger."

On the first day of the new year, Xu Shan and his two brothers came to the living room early in the morning. They saw their grandparents sitting on chairs and hugging their fourth and fifth uncles with smiles. They immediately kowtowed to their grandparents and saluted. say hello.

In fact, according to the traditional customs on Hong Kong Island, it is enough to hand over the album for editing.

But this side of the capital is in the north, and etiquette and customs are very different.

In fact, their mother He Minhong taught Xu Shan and his two brothers this trick.

He Minhong was a student of the Chinese Department of Peking University before and can be considered a relatively traditional person.

Since marrying Xiaodian, because of her affluent life, she has become more interested in pursuing traditional culture.

Then at the back is the richest man in Hong Kong Island.

In my previous life, every time I returned to my hometown for the Chinese New Year, my parents would always say something like: I got up so late again, why don’t I go to worship my ancestors earlier?

Speaking of this, we have to mention the custom of burning the first incense on the first day of the Lunar New Year in the South, which is the first incense stick, the first incense burner or the first incense burner.

Therefore, it is because of these customs that I have been particularly disgusted for many years.

The custom of burning incense has a long history and has been popular as early as the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, for many years, there were only thirteen people in a family. According to the standard of ten people at a table, for many years, there was not enough room for a family to sit at one table.

He was obviously a veteran many years ago. Even after going to Hong Kong Island in 1966, he was still in the special operations team.

This is a way of worshiping Buddha and worshiping gods.

In the 1990s and millennium, southern rural areas were greatly affected by reform.

Of course, I won't let them disrupt their usual work and rest habits. They get up at the same time as they should, and there is not much change from usual times.

I have seen related news many years ago. In 2006, the starting price for the first incense stick on New Year's Eve at Yunju Temple in Beijing was 660 yuan.

After all, after working hard for a whole year, I was finally able to go back to my hometown and relax, but I still had to be called out to burn the so-called incense on my head early.

After all, these brothers and sisters are almost all grandparents for many years now. When they get together for the New Year's Eve dinner, it is not the two or three tables used before, but seven or eight tables to accommodate so many people.

But Lao Xu is still here, and the tradition of the family gathering together for New Year's Eve dinner every year has not changed.

Why don’t people in the south like to watch the Spring Festival Gala every year?

In addition to this Shaotouxiang culture, Sangong culture is also very popular.

As a result, religion has gradually become commercialized.

The conflicts in the previous life were not passed down in this life for many years, and little ones and the other brothers were not allowed to get up early to pay New Year greetings.

Not mentioning Xu Danian and his brothers, but just talking about myself in many years, there are only ten children in his family, including Xiaodou Bao and White Tofu, but there are also three more children, He Minhong, mother and son.

But after the 1980s and 1990s, the economy took off rapidly, and money became an "important indicator" for the whole society.

For example, her father-in-law has been writing novels for many years. Although he has been more talented in running businesses for many years, no matter how you look at it, he is more of a Confucian businessman and his temperament is more scholarly.

Therefore, during the Spring Festival every year, the Xu family has more laughter and laughter.

From "stopping in the temple and competing to burn incense at the fifth watch of the night", we can know the piety and respect that people had for the gods at that time.

This is where the conflict with my parents comes from.

Therefore, every Spring Festival or some major festivals come, many ancient and famous temples sell high-priced "head pillar incense".

The Spring Festival is a time for reunion, not a time for educating children.

It was relatively quiet.

In addition, brothers Xu Danian, Xu Nian and others also give out red envelopes.

Today is the Spring Festival, a day of great joy, and the whole family should be happy.

This year, brothers Xu Yuantong and Xu Yuanxi have grown up a lot, so naturally they won't cry easily.

In fact, it stands to reason that now should be the time for the family to have New Year's Eve dinner separately.

For example, in Yulin Village where Tan Xiaolian lives, Tan Xiaolian and her foursome are all girls, not men. Otherwise, they would definitely be called to the ancestral hall to burn incense before midnight on New Year's Eve.

She really likes to read books. There is a saying that poetry and books are in your heart, and she admires this sentence the most.

At some religious sites in Nanyue Hengshan, the "first incense stick" of the New Year was sold for more than 100,000 yuan.

Volume 8 of "Tokyo Menghualu", "The Birthday of Cui Fujun on June 6th" records that on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month of the lunar calendar, on the birthday of Cui Fujun, a Tang Dynasty native, people worshiped him at Cui Fujun Temple in the capital:

In addition to the couple who have given out red envelopes for many years, seniors such as Zhang Mingde, Lao Xu, and Zhou Hongmei also give out red envelopes.

But even though everyone knows that he has been very rich and good at doing business for many years, it seems that it is difficult to see in him the 'money smell' of those Chinese businessmen. Instead, he has the 'book smell' of a scholar.

Naturally, it is also because it has been able to be organized over many years. Otherwise, there would probably not be such a tradition at all.

It can also be inferred from this that burning incense was popular before the Song Dynasty, and during the Song Dynasty, burning incense was mainly used in Taoist or folk belief temples.

Many years ago and Qin Huairu were very happy to give out red envelopes to the children.

"Okay, okay, happy new year to you too, come and get your red envelopes."

As a result, he was called a great writer because he wrote novels in Hong Kong Island for several years.

In the first two years, when the children were still young, crying was inevitable.

We eat the New Year's Eve dinner together, and of course we eat together on the New Year's Day.

Their brothers' house in the capital is near Nanchizi Street, not too far away.

What's more, the courtyard house of many years ago had a lot of houses and could easily accommodate a large family.

After a round, Xu Shanyou and the others kowtowed a lot, and at the same time, the red envelopes in their hands were also very generous.

How can I put it, everyone in the family is not short of money, so they will naturally be willing to give out red envelopes.

How much money can a red envelope have?

Anyway, the Xu family will not be short of this little money.

"Sister Tuanzi, please help me take a look at my daughter. She seems to have become ugly and often has to breathe through her mouth. She always opens her mouth. I have told her many times, but she still doesn't listen."

On the afternoon of the second grade of junior high school, under the clear sky in Beijing, in the large courtyard of the courtyard, several children were chasing each other and playing, making the whole courtyard very lively. But at this time, Xu Luwan led her daughter Rao Xinyu over and consulted with Xiaotuanzi.

Xiaotuanzi was eating water chestnuts, peeling them with a knife in his hand.

Hearing this, he smiled and asked Rao Xinyu to open his mouth and take a look, but he didn't see anything wrong.

Then he put the horse's hoof in his mouth and prepared to take the little guy's pulse.

Water chestnut is an economic crop in the south, and it is not very popular in Huimin Supermarket, but it is a food that is both a fruit and a vegetable that many people like to eat.

I have liked this kind of fruit for many years. In several counties around Jiangbei County, many people like to grow water chestnuts.

It is a cold food and has miraculous effects in reducing fire.

It is delicious eaten raw or cooked.

The child Rao Xinyu is the same age as Xiaodoubao's daughter Jiang Yuexi, but Rao Xinyu is a few months older than Jiang Yuexi.

Her mother, Xu Luwan, was born in 1962. She got married when she was 18, that is, in 1980, and gave birth to a child named Rao Xinyu the following year.

Time flies so fast, she was just a little kid at the beginning, and now her child is five years old.

At this moment, Xu Luwan felt that her daughter had become ugly, but her parents, Xu Baibai and Yao Chunxi, did not think so.

In the eyes of Xu Baibai and Yao Chunxi, Rao Xinyu was originally a cute little girl, why did she become ugly?

After checking his pulse for a while, Xiaotuanzi suddenly frowned.

Because she didn't report any special circumstances.

In the yard at this time, in addition to Xiaotuanzi, Xiaodou Bao and Hot Wheels were also there.

None of them planned to bother for many years, just because they felt that they would definitely be able to solve this matter.

"Sister, come here for a moment."

Xiaodou Bao, who was chatting with Qin Huairu, Yao Chunxi, and Lou Xiao'e, heard her sister's greeting and went over immediately.

"What's wrong? Xinyu is sick?"

Xiao Doubao, who came over, thought that Rao Xinyu was sick.

After Xiaotuanzi opened his mouth and briefly stated his condition, Xiaodoubao suddenly became interested.

For Xiaodou Bao, she likes difficult and complicated diseases like this the most.

Because only in this way can she grow faster.

As long as she accumulates more similar difficult and complicated diseases, she can become a miracle doctor praised by everyone like her father.

So, before Xiaotuanzi finished speaking, Xiaodoubao had already put his hand on Rao Xinyu's little hand and started taking the pulse.

Xu Luwan looked nervously and expectantly on the side, "Sister Yi, my daughter is not really sick, is she? In the past six months, she always feels that she has changed a lot, eating, sleeping, napping, walking, etc. Breathe through your mouth.”

In fact, it's not just as simple as breathing through her mouth, but she seems to be unable to close her mouth. Her mouth always opens again soon after someone reminds her.

In addition, Rao Xinyu is not as beautiful and smiling as before.

In short, this is not a good thing.

Xiaodoubao frowned and said nothing. After a while, he said:

"The result of my pulse test is that Xinyu has no problem and is in good health. As for the symptom of her mouth, I'm not sure what the disease is."

"How about we ask dad?"

In the last sentence, Xiaodoubao looked at Xiaotuanzi and tentatively asked questions.

Hearing Xiaodou Bao's words, Xu Luwan suddenly became even more nervous, because if she hadn't known about it for so many years, then she was probably worried in vain.

However, her daughter Rao Xinyu is indeed not as cute as before.

For Xu Luwan, whether her daughter is beautiful or not is not a big deal, but the problem is that she has symptoms now, but even Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi, two so-called traditional Chinese medicine doctors, can't solve this problem. It's a bit troublesome.

Yesterday, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Mingde went back to the Stone Temple. Otherwise, you could ask him to help take a look today.

I don’t know if I need to trouble the old miracle doctor Zhang Mingde later.

Xiaotuanzi nodded, and then the two sisters took Rao Xinyu there for many years.

The latter was teaching his two young sons to count, and stopped when he saw Xiaodoubao and the others approaching.

Soon, it took many years to find out what was going on.

"Xinyu, open your mouth and let me see."

Many years ago, I said something to the little guy Rao Xinyu, and the little guy was quite cooperative and opened his mouth.

Almost instantly, he saw it.

There is something wrong with Rao Xinyu's teeth, and now he has a tendency to have an atretic overbite.

In professional terms, it is an inverted overbite, which is a category in dentistry.

The main reason is that the teeth are dug in, the tongue is tilted inward, and the lower teeth cannot be seen at all when biting.

Now Rao Xinyu already has this tendency, but it is not obvious yet.

"Let me give you a brief explanation. Look at the teeth in her lower jaw. Have they begun to tilt inward?" Many years ago pointed to the teeth in Rao Xinyu's small mouth and explained to the Xiaodoubao sisters.

On the other side, Hot Wheels had already heard the sound and came over. He was also very interested in such on-site teaching.

"The most common hazard is abnormal tooth wear. Age-inconsistent wear will occur on the lingual side of the upper front teeth and the labial side of the lower front teeth."

"Sometimes the incisal edges of the teeth are even ground into a knife-edge shape. No matter how long the time passes, defects in the dental tissue will appear, symptoms of dentin sensitivity will appear, and even if the severity is severe, symptoms of pulpitis will appear. These are all harmful to the dental tissue. s damage."

“Secondly, atresia is accompanied by deep overbite. If it is severe enough that the incisal edge of the mandibular anterior teeth bites onto the mucosa on the palatal side of the maxilla, it may cause the gums on the palatal side of the maxillary front teeth to recede or the gums on the labial side of the lower front teeth to recede. This The first is damage to the periodontal tissue.”

“Thirdly, because after the upper front teeth are lingually tilted, the lower jaw is actually controlled in a relatively backward position by the lingually tilted upper front teeth. This will lead to underdevelopment of the mandible in children during the growth and development period, that is, micromandibular deformity in which the mandible is retruded. , which has a greater impact on the appearance of the profile.”

"Finally, long-term forced mandibular retraction, which requires opening the mouth first and then extending the mandible forward, will increase the burden on the temporomandibular joint and may cause symptoms or signs of temporomandibular joint disease."

After listening to these words for many years, Xiaodoubao and his three siblings were dumbfounded. So there is such a disease?

Teeth have never been the focus of traditional Chinese medicine. They focus more on internal conditioning, acupuncture, etc.

But for many years now, it has become a very in-depth point in the field of dentistry.

"At that time, we will arrange for her to use more advanced equipment for X-ray examination, and we will be able to confirm it quickly."
