Can you introduce the scenic spots of Wangjia Courtyard in the ancient city of Shanhaiguan?

The scenic spot we are talking about today is in Shanhaiguan.

Although? The first level in the world? It is a famous AAAAA scenic spot, but this royal courtyard in Shanhaiguan ancient city is a place that people who have lived in the old city for many years may not have been to.

In the scenic spot of Wang Family Courtyard, no matter from the government or the people, most people can touch, touch and take photos at close range. For example, this finely carved and priceless mahogany chair left by Master Wang has no problem for tourists to sit directly on it. This situation has never happened in my previous travels, whether it is the folk museum or the Shanxi Merchants Courtyard. So this scenic spot makes people feel very cordial, so I spent an hour visiting and shooting this scenic spot, from which I learned the historical stories circulated by the people.

The owner of the Wang Family Courtyard is from Taiyuan, Shanxi. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, more than 30 million people in the Central Plains suffered from famine, including the Wang family who fled to Shanhaiguan and took root here. At first, the Wangs were in the tofu business, just like Mr. Qiao in the Qiao Family Courtyard in Jinzhong, Shanxi. After visiting so many Shanxi merchants' courtyards, I suddenly found that there were so many Shanxi merchants who started selling tofu that now I can't underestimate those who sell tofu. It is unique to say that Shanxi people do business. Master Wang, who sold tofu at first, became a salt merchant when he sold it, and later opened one bank after another. Since then, the financial resources have been rolling in, the family business has flourished, and it has gradually become rich in Shanhaiguan. Legend has it that all the assets of Shanhaiguan were owned by the Wangs at that time, so Master Wang left a folk name called? Wang Bancheng? .

If you have been to the quadrangles of Shanxi merchants, you will find that they are typical northern quadrangles. Shanxi merchants also have a very traditional northerner thinking, attach importance to feudalism, and have many special rules at home. Therefore, we can clearly see the family style and rules dominated by strict rules and regulations and the idea that men are superior to women. A simple chair is very elegant in the courtyard of Shanxi merchants. A chair with an armrest is called. Dry chair? What is a chair without armrests? Kun chair? .

There are two Gankun hexagrams in Zhouyi, which refer to Yin and Yang, male as Yang and female as Yin. ? Dry chair? Is this a man's chair? Kun chair? This is the women's seat of Wang Jiayi feudal society and every Shanxi merchant family, and the status of men is higher than that of women. Generally speaking, a chair with armrests is the main seat and will be placed in an important position, while a chair without armrests is regarded as a kind of chair? Supplement? Put it in the second place, indicating that the status is relatively low. It goes without saying that this grade difference will be reflected in ancient furniture in China. When a guest comes home, the host brings a chair. When the guest looks at the chair, he will understand his position in the host's mind. But these things can't be said, only? Meaning? . So you see how reserved Chinese people are, and a lot of bitter water can only be swallowed.

Still reflect? Grade? Yes, the office is the same as ordinary. In the Wang family, only the eldest son and grandson are entitled to sleep in the cradle of the host family. So in ancient times, Out? How important it is, the child born to the youngest wife will never turn over. At the same time, only the eldest son born by the first wife is eligible to live in the room opposite the master, and the furnishings of the eldest son's room are superior to others? Prostitute? Kid. Wang jiapei? The eldest son and grandson? Say, if the first wife accidentally gave birth to a worthless eldest son, will there be other sons in the family? Make up? Come, but there is still no way to change him? Inferiority? Identity. Knowing these rules of a big family, I suddenly feel that modern people born in New China are really happy!

I always advise my friends to visit museums and exhibition halls, because there are many interesting things in them, such as the meaning of decorations, which are very interesting and interesting. Look at this piece of jade, which is engraved with pine cranes, meaning: pine cranes prolong life; Look at this room. Before and after Wu Sangui led the Qing soldiers into the customs, he once hid Gone with the Wind Chen Yuanyuan, who was famous in Qin Jin, dominated the south of the Yangtze River, and influenced the alternation of Ming and Qing Dynasties. The stone lion at Chen Yuanyuan's door had a special meaning.

Who is this stone lion? A lioness. Chen Yuanyuan was childless all her life, and the woman who couldn't control herself in troubled times only pinned her mind on these decorations;

Look at this humble object, which is the dowry of the Wangs' daughter. When the daughter gets married, if the porter carries a brick, it means that Master Wang gave the son-in-law a house. If he chooses a board, he will give him a sidewalk.

Large families like to keep turtles, and they will prepare exquisite ponds for them, that is, they will send longevity wishes to turtles.

Wang Jia Courtyard in Shanhaiguan Ancient City is also a folk museum, so there are many folk collections.

Shadow play, for example, is made of donkey skin. This kind of skin is not easy to break and is very elastic.

Master Wang has five wives and 10 daughters, as the saying goes? The lives of three women? Is it easy for so many women to live in one yard? Trouble? Yes, that's why Master Wang has prepared a shadow play to show to these women every day, which is also a way to maintain family peace.

In addition, I also saw an ancient juicer. It turns out that this thing is not the wisdom of modern people.

Also, seeing this barber man, I finally understand why there is a saying called? Shaving your head and carrying your load is hot? .

On this shaving pole, there is a stool for guests to sit in the middle. On both sides of the stool, the box at one end is used to put shaving tools, and the bellows at the other end is used to heat shampoo for guests. So what is the ending? Is it hot? Yes

Shaving your head and carrying your load is hot? That's how it happened.
