Travel through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 159 It's the New Year Again

It has been a long time since the long-distance running, and even the rewards after this battle have been awarded.

The whole Youzhou was once again in a state of calm. Those families whose families were killed in battle were also secretly licking their wounds. They didn't have any complaints. The treatment Yang Yu gave them was really high, so that they no longer had any redundant thoughts.

Besides, even if there is no treatment, they have an idea. You know, among all the families, that family has not seen dozens of battles. Family members died in battle, and some families didn't even receive the ashes, so they suffered the same, so they were very grateful to Yang Yu.

Because war is inevitable, and the only thing that can be avoided is to make their wounds shallower, shallower, shallower, and that is enough.

"Shopkeeper, are you a Spring Festival couplet?" "Well, this is the legendary couplet, also known as the Spring Festival couplet. However, the method of posting this year has been changed. The lord said that this will be officially posted on the day of the new year, because, From the beginning of the year, it is considered to be the official Chinese New Year."

On the day of Laba, all the grocery stores in Youzhou started a comprehensive distribution of goods, that is, Spring Festival couplets, New Year pictures, Zaowang paintings, etc. However, at this time, this rule is officially given, that is, Spring Festival couplets, Why do you do this when you start posting from a young age, instead of on the New Year's day.

Yang Yu, I have Yang Yu's thoughts, because they didn't give up on the door god at this time, that is, the mahogany god Tu Yulei, this one is hung on both sides of the door, not on the door, this door god is on the big door. Since the New Year is posted, then there is no need to be so particular about Spring Festival couplets.

In particular, the Spring Festival couplets sold now are all printed matter, and only some literate families in the city will write the Spring Festival couplets and post them themselves.

"Then, shopkeeper, what's the matter with these green Spring Festival couplets?" When someone dies, this kind of green Spring Festival couplets should be pasted up, but they don’t have to.”

It is better to form a rule, but why is it one year instead of three years? At this time, all the rules of later generations are really not very applicable, especially since wars will happen from time to time, so it is impossible The time for them to keep their filial piety is too long. If it is too long, things may be delayed. When the world really settles down, naturally, someone will change some things.

Spring Festival couplets, this is the best-selling item in every grocery store, whether it is red or green, as soon as it appeared in the grocery store, it was looted.

"Have you heard that last year, the Spring Festival couplets we envied are now sold in grocery stores." "Spring Festival couplets, what Spring Festival couplets?" The old Li family in our village pasted the red paper and black letters on the gate. At that time, the whole village didn’t come to visit. You see, Lao Li, this year’s life is obviously much more prosperous than last year. , because of posting this Spring Festival couplet.”

This, it's a coincidence that no one was killed in the old Li's family, otherwise, what would the folklore be, would the Spring Festival couplets not be easy to sell?
"Head of the family, I heard that there are Spring Festival couplets for sale now, but this year they are all printed, and they are all written in Madam Cai's handwriting. We suffer because we didn't get the handwriting of people above the general level last year. , That’s why Xiao Er went, but now it’s ready, this is Madam Cai’s handwriting, but our Youzhou No. [-] handwriting, we have to buy it quickly.”

"No, didn't the lord order that if someone died in the family, can't post couplets this year?"

"Master, this, you don't know, they have green couplets, are they prepared for people like us? I must buy them, and I will buy more. I will paste all the doors in the house, so that I can bless you." Our family is lucky in the coming year, and we can also bless Xiao Er to be at ease underground."

"My lord, that's how it is. After the Spring Festival couplets were scattered, there was a lot of applause. I rarely heard any bad voices. They all said that there is hope for the coming year. This New Year will be more prosperous. .”

Soon, all the news came to Yang Yu. It seems that the Spring Festival couplets have been officially popularized. It is necessary to have three or five people who can write Spring Festival couplets instead of buying this kind of printed matter.

"Then, what about some cities?" "My lord, in some big cities, such as the city we live in, people say that they have cut the paper and wait for someone to write couplets, while in some small cities, they just buy it." The printed matter, this one, seems to have something to do with the cultural people in this city."

"Well, I see. Send me an order to let all the generals go down and write Spring Festival couplets for people from now on. However, I want to see more new couplets this year."

Whether it's to buy people's hearts or to be close to the people, it is necessary to let the generals go down to write Spring Festival couplets. Perhaps, with Yang Yu, there is no need to suck pus for the soldiers, and there is no need for Yang Yu to sleep with others, because Between the high-ranking general and Yang Yu, they already had a closely connected network, so there was no need to do some things that were too pretentious.

However, between ordinary people, Yang Yu needs an idea that ordinary people can think about, that is, maybe, in a few years, I will also be a general, even if I am not a general, I can still be a general in the state pastoral mansion. If you want to work in the government, the prerequisite for the job is that you need to enter the academy to study. Yang Yu did this to let these people have enough confidence to go to the academy to study. Otherwise, there are academies, but few study, and even Those who came to study were all the children of rich families, this was not in line with Yang Yu's wishes.

He needs to break the saying of poor and rich families. What Yang Yu needs is not confrontation, but mixing. Cao Cao's difference comes from them.

That's what Yang Yu thinks, but what about the generals?Are they willing to write Spring Festival couplets for others?
Of course I am willing, this is something to show my face, why not!However, they don't think about being close to the people, but they care about Yang Yu's opinion. If they don't write couplets for people, what will Yang Yu think of them.

Therefore, the generals took this as a task to complete, and by the way, they could also show off their calligraphy, so why not do it!
