Because I like calligraphy, I once worshipped an old gentleman as a teacher. The teacher saw that I had some hairy grass, and it was estimated that I wouldn't live long, so she casually said, let's go to the mysterious tower first.

The Xuanta mentioned by the old man is a rubbings of Xuanta Monument written by Liu Gongquan, a calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty. For those who learn calligraphy, it belongs to the level of primary school students-please don't get me wrong, I don't mean to despise Liu Zi-I mean that Liu Zi is so famous among China people that even primary school students use it as a model for painting red. Anyone who knows a little about calligraphy knows Yan Liu Ou Zhao, the four famous artists since the Tang and Song Dynasties, and Liuzi is especially famous for his regular shape and strict statutes. Naturally, I can imagine that I am not old enough to paint red mold. How can I still sit still? So there is no name in the end, and giving up halfway is an inevitable outcome.

There are also gains, and I like to ponder this square character from now on.

One day, I was chatting with a colleague, and somehow I suddenly turned to calligraphy. To tell the truth, although I haven't learned anything, I still have a little feeling and taste in appreciating other people's works-just like cooking, I can't do it myself, but it doesn't hinder the taste of other people's dishes; And as long as you put your heart into it, you may become a gourmet. Colleagues solemnly said that they recently knew a calligrapher who wrote very well. Ask me if I'm interested in getting you a Amo bag? After a little hesitation, I decided to accept the kindness of my colleagues.

But what should I write? In my opinion, calligraphy and painting works are either famous and can be used for collection; Either in time, it can be used as decoration. As a decorative painting and calligraphy work, there is no need to be too picky, as long as there are good contents and basic rules. I don't remember what fame he said this calligrapher was. Maybe he is a rising star in Ran Ran. So I hesitated what to write.

Suddenly I thought of the topic of personnel management around me recently, and somehow I thought of the over-written word mentioned by Lu Xun in some articles. Why not write a couplet about people? By this time, I already know what to do. However, I don't know whether the calligrapher is young or old, and whether he really has a name. In case the calligrapher sees that I deliberately embarrass him, won't my colleagues be looked down upon by me?

I don't care so much anymore. So, GongGongZheng wrote fourteen words:

Everybody follow everybody, everybody follow everybody.

I explained to my colleagues that I must write in simplified Chinese characters as it is. He is a little confused, and I am a little proud.

Everyone who likes calligraphy knows that Wang Xizhi, a book sage, once wrote more than a dozen variant characters in a manuscript-but that was interspersed among articles. It is objectively feasible to seek some changes in the case of different upper and lower characters. If the book saint had been asked to write a dozen or dozens of words in a row, I think he would have been sweating if he hadn't dropped his pen in anger.

Of course he can't write. Even if the old man asks him a word, he will try his best to keep a pool of white geese to please him, not to mention waiting for such a boring trick.

But then one day, I actually saw the word in my colleague's office. The words are written vertically, and there seems to be a postscript to the effect that he himself is noncommittal about the meaning of this couplet. I read the word, but I am noncommittal about it.

I don't know why, but later my colleague didn't send me that word; It doesn't belong to me, so I don't need it back. Remember this as a story for everyone.

Second, the department

Once, I bought a fan in Wuhan calligraphy and painting market. It's from the Qing dynasty. Very old, still a little disabled. The sector is well-organized and beautifully written, and the size of words is between lower case and middle case-it is carefully designed by the author according to the content and sector size of the book, but the content is not rigid and free and easy:

Running around the sun and the moon, it seems that the taste is not as good as a pot of tea. thousands of books looks at him; Tired, bamboo and rattan bed sleeps him; When he woke up, he was intoxicated with flowers. When the guest comes, tell jokes, guess crossword puzzles, draw some loose bamboo, write some love poems, and accompany him to play chess for a while. Endless human feelings; Seeking endless human interests; This will always be a scene to realize Tang Wu's punishment and five hegemony. You've been traveling for years, and who knows the fun?

Although the style of writing is beautiful, I mainly appreciate his passage. The signature and seal are a little vague. When they are combined, the handwriting that can be vaguely recognized is: the number of sheets.

Because I like it, I remember the content. This fan was later forcibly taken away by my good friend Mr. Xu, and he also liked the words in the fan. I put a pile of cash on the table without asking the price. He may have consulted relevant experts. According to his eyesight at that time, it was really difficult to make an accurate appraisal of this thing.

Later, I also mentioned this fan to some friends who like calligraphy and recited the contents to them. Most of them like it very much, and some friends asked me to copy the content and show it to them.

Later, a friend opened a teahouse. I suggest asking the calligrapher to write this passage down and hang it in the hall for decoration. Secondly, you can enjoy tea at the same time. The friend said, then you can ask someone to write it. Where do you know any calligraphers? I happened to meet an old man at a friend's house talking about mountains (in Beijing dialect, casually talking about the sky) and talked about it. I don't want him to promise. I respectfully copied the text and marked it as ink left by the Qing Dynasty and gave it to him. In a few days, the words were written and sent.

At first glance, I'm not satisfied, but I'm grateful-I can finally make friends. This friend who seeks words doesn't know anything about literature, but he is willing to talk about what he has seen and heard. Then, I know that calligraphers claim to be Taoist priests; Maybe a poet-because he said he could change that paragraph better.

I was startled.

I think that if Zhang Shuruo was an official in the Qing Dynasty, the official must be young, and we should have heard of the older ones. Should not be very famous literati or painter, if famous, there will be works handed down, then we will witness them. Now, he only keeps this worn-out fan handed down from generation to generation. How can I evaluate it?

But I like his passage, which is both poetry and prose. After careful taste, from some people's point of view, those words don't seem to be as beautiful as Li Qing; The realm does not seem to be very ambitious and broad-minded, and even a little helpless, evasive and cynical.

However, that's Zhang Shu's words, which is a portrayal of Zhang Shu's mood-straight from the book, without affectation.

I wonder if this ancient man named Zhang Shu has any other masterpieces handed down from generation to generation? This scroll plate alone has made me taste a lot of life.

As a late student at school, how dare I judge and give orders?
