The origin of white dolls

People say there are many beautiful women in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Tianshui is also rich in beautiful women. Because of this, there is always a question in people's minds. Suzhou and Hangzhou water towns are green everywhere, and it is normal to have beautiful women. But the impression of Gansu is mostly dry and desolate. How can it be rich in beautiful women? Actually, you are wrong. Tianshui is known as "the small south of Gansu". There are many springs here, which are sweet and sweet, and the white and tender skin is raised by this water. Indeed, in the arid northwest, there are few places with water, and there are even fewer places with water as their place names. However, Longnan, a land located at the junction of Gansu and Shaanxi, is an exception. Not only named after water, but also "Tianshui". Why is it called Tianshui This beautiful place name originated from the legend of "Tianhe Water Injection". According to legend, on that distant day, the sky suddenly flashed red, and the ground cracked a huge crack. The water from Tianhe fell from the sky, filling the cracks on the ground and forming a beautiful lake. The sweet water of Tianhe makes this land lush and attracts human beings to thrive here. Among these ancestors, there are Fuxi, who painted the sky, and Nu Wa, who mended the sky by refining stones. The water of the Tianhe River not only gave birth to an ancient civilization, but also nourished it. All the boys and girls in Huang Xi's hometown are white and tender.

Tianshui "white doll" is also a typical representative of the product of national integration. There are 27 ethnic groups, including Han, Hui, Manchu, Mongolian and Tibetan, living in Tianshui 1.43 million square kilometers, which is basically half of the 56 ethnic groups in China. Tianshui is a place where all ethnic groups meet in history. Ethnic integration has been accompanied by the historical process of Qin Zhou (Qin Zhou is now affiliated to Tianshui). The ancestors of primitive society, such as Han, Hui, Qiang, Tangut, Tubo and Manchu, all mixed here with the change of dynasties. In addition, Tianshui is also an important town of the ancient Silk Road and a bright pearl on the Silk Road. Therefore, it has become a place for China businessmen to communicate with people in the western regions and westerners. The ethnic integration of Tianshui in modern times never stopped. After liberation, people from all over the country came to Tianshui to support the construction of the northwest and the third line, so Tianshui people became Tianshui people who could not even tell them apart. Such a long period of ethnic blending has created today's "white doll".

Aside from the above-mentioned objective conditions such as environment and history, some people like to interpret the beauty of Tianshui from the perspective of myth, and they can also find the origin of Tianshui's rich "white dolls". In all kinds of legends, we all know that Nu Wa, as the leader of primitive tribes, is not only a heroine, but also a beautiful woman. She is not only courageous and resourceful, but also wise and courageous. If we put her in ancient Greek mythology, she should have three positions: beauty, love and wisdom. The beauty, kindness, wisdom, sense of justice and compassion of Tianshui women may be the inheritance of these excellent spirits of Nu Wa. Tianshui was called Qin Zhou in ancient times, with outstanding people and outstanding spirits. In the Fu Jian of the former Qin Dynasty, Su Hui was recorded as beautiful and intelligent since childhood. Women's beauty, talent and noble character make women in the world feel ashamed. Her palindrome poem "Xuan Ji Tu" has far-reaching influence and occupies an important position in the history of China literature, but her purpose is to save her imprisoned husband.

According to legend, Su Hui has a delicate complexion, bright eyes and white teeth, and her manners are particularly elegant. At the age of 28, he married Tao Dou, secretary of the Secretariat of Qin Zhou. Tao Dou was handsome, civil and military, and won the appreciation of Emperor Fu Jian. After the marriage, the young couple loved each other. Unfortunately, suddenly arrival, a political opponent took part in the copy of Tao Dou in front of Fu Jian, framing him as suspected of "factional struggle". Hearing this, Fu Jian demoted Tao Dou to Shu Ren and sent him to the frontier sandbar (now Dunhuang) for hard labor.

Su Hui wrote a missing palindrome poem, which was woven on the brocade handkerchief with colorful silk thread and sold along the street in Qinzhou City to attract the attention of Emperor Fu Jian. This palindrome poem, with a total of 84 1 word and no punctuation marks, is called "Xuan Ji Map", which can be derived from thousands of poems with various poetic styles, and the reading methods are even more strange. Kang Wanmin, a scholar in Ming Dynasty, studied hard all his life, and wrote A Map Reading Method of Xuan Ji, which formed a complete set of reading methods, which can be divided into twelve types: sequential reading, reverse reading, beginning reading, gradually retreating, countdown reading, horizontal reading, oblique reading, four-corner reading, intermediate radiation reading, angular reading, reverse reading and reverse reading. Every poem is full of bitterness, passion and true feelings, which makes people move. Because her poems are so "unique", Zhou Qinren rushed to buy back Wen Jinpa, and Luoyang paper was once expensive. Jinpa soon spread to Fu Jian, and Fu Jian was very moved after reading the palindrome poem. He immediately ordered Tao Dou to be pardoned and Qinzhou secretariat restored. Tao Dou and Su Hui are finally reunited.

Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote in Qin Zhou Miscellaneous Works: "Who is cuter than her? The secluded center is in an empty valley. " It records the beauty of Tianshui. Du Fu is one of the most melancholy poets in the history of China. It is difficult to see his poems about beauty and love. The beauty in Du Fu's poems is Tianshui's "white doll". In his description, this kind of beauty is: the clear spring in the mountain sees its purity, the maid sells pearls to see its poor livelihood, leads Luo to fill the house to see its seclusion ambition, picks flowers without wearing them, sees its chastity, leans against bamboo to see its loneliness at dusk-a stunning beauty both inside and outside. Looking back, Tianshui's "white doll" has existed since ancient times: "If she just turns her head and smiles, there will be hundreds of spells, and the six palaces will disappear" everywhere; There are a lot of people who look like the story of Dixin and Shi. Moreover, in her family, beautiful women, talented women, martial women and embroidered women emerge one after another.

Today's Tianshui "white doll" is even better than the past. They are either prominent in the film industry, or show their faces in the film industry, or make a sound in the music industry, or devote themselves to the literary world, or excel in the technical field, or teach and educate people in the teaching field, or actually serve the domestic economy. They are all like colorful buds, competing with each other in various ways.

On June 22nd, 2007, in the live concert of China Love Meets Tianshui, Taiwan Province singer Cai Qin was envious when she mentioned Tianshui White Doll. She said with emotion that she didn't have the natural good skin of Tianshui girl, so she must come to Tianshui more often in the future. Pei Xinhua, a famous weather forecast host of CCTV and a local beauty in Tianshui, won the title of "the most popular weather program host" in 2005. The audience commented that she had an "angel face". Xin Li, a Tianshui-born beauty, was the runner-up in the Guangdong Division of the New Silk Road Model Contest. Now she is a professional model signed by New Silk Road, replacing singer CoCo Lee as the advertising spokesperson of Hao Di cosmetics. People in a Dream of Red Mansions started broadcasting on August 2, 20061,and the final finals were held on June 9, 2007. Finally, Xu Xing, a white doll in Tianshui, won the top 5 in Baochai Group and now plays the role of Xi Chun. Duan Xiaojie, a white doll from Tianshui, won the 2009 Miss Bikini World Competition.

In fact, it's just one side's soil and water to support one side. Tianshui's unique geographical environment, climatic conditions, soil and water conditions and human conditions make Nanshan Cooper still full of vitality after witnessing 2500 Chinese Spring and Autumn Periods. It also makes Euonymus japonicus, a common deciduous shrub in the Yangtze River basin, not only survive in Tianshui in the northwest, but also grow into a tree with a height of 18 meters and a chest circumference of 2 meters. It is natural to support Tianshui people. Tianshui's superior humanities, geography, water quality, soil quality and climate conditions have given birth to thousands of "white dolls" in Qian Qian; May the beauty and wisdom of thousands of "white dolls" in Qian Qian coexist and become the pride of Tianshui.
