Chapter 203
(Happy New Year! Happy New Year! I wish everyone a happy New Year!)
(Happy New Year, I wish all readers may you be successful every year and be happy every year.
May all the regrets of last year be the foreshadowing of surprises this year.)
Bathing is called bathing in the Chaoshan area and bathing in the Northeast area.
Wash your hair and body, "The Rites of Zhou·Tianguan·Gongren": "The palace people are in charge of repairing the king's six bedrooms, making wells for them, getting rid of them, removing their stench, and sharing the king's bath."
Bai Juyi once said in the poem "Bathing": "If you don't bathe for many years, your skin will be covered with dirt."
Dai Mingshi's "Combined Biography of the Two Kings of Yang and Liu" of the Qing Dynasty: "He took a bath and burned incense, and wrote a list of the Lieutenant Emperor."
Liang Qichao's "Reading Japanese Bibliographic Records": "If the water in the pond is not easy to move, it will be smelly and rotten; if the body and face are not bathed, it will be filled with dirt and filth."
During the Western Zhou Dynasty, after etiquette was established, bathing etiquette gradually became customized.
Since bathing has penetrated into all aspects of society, people have a deep understanding of bathing, and they not only regard bathing simply as a way to cleanse the body and moisturize the body.
In the pre-Qin Dynasty, it was considered a solemn etiquette to bathe and purify one's body before worshiping gods and ancestors. This was already a law, which showed that the heart was clean and pious.
It is called a precept, also known as fasting.
The ritual of fasting began in the Yin and Shang Dynasties and became custom-made in the Western Zhou Dynasty. The ritual of fasting in the Western Zhou Dynasty was very solemn and sophisticated. Fasting was required twice before every major sacrificial event.
The first time it is held ten or three days before the festival is called the precepts.
The second time is carried out three days or one day before the festival, and is called Su.
There are certain ceremonies presided over by full-time officials, who are required to fast from meat and fish and take baths to show their respect for the gods.
Fasting and bathing have become an important part of the sacrificial rituals of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and were managed by full-time officials.
This is recorded in "Zhou Li".
In the new era, red tape is disappearing, but the enjoyment part remains.
The three of them drove to the front door of the New World Hotel. Qian Zhongshan locked his pistol into the hidden compartment of the front fender.
The guns previously issued by the Harbin Police Department have been secretly withdrawn by the Inspectorate.
The gun in his hand was bought through Zhang, a locksmith at Dongda Market. It was said to be an ominous gun, and the owner who held it died.
Moreover, there are several lawsuits involving human lives related to this gun.
For spies, this is a trivial matter.
After all, the Criminal Division will not compete with the Secret Service Division for business.
"Get off, get off!"
"Be cheerful and don't act so sullenly that you don't want to let strangers in!"
"laugh!"
Qian Zhongshan locked the car door and shouted loudly to the two idiots in the car behind him.
It was so loud that the receptionist at the entrance of the New World Hotel naturally noticed the excitement and walked over quickly.
Last month, Harbin Daily announced the registration status of cars last year, showing that there were only 133 units in total.
If you think about it from the bottom of your head, these people are either rich or noble, and they are not something ordinary people can mess with.
The receptionists and concierges rely on their ability to see the food, so naturally they can't afford to offend such a crowd-pleaser.
"Chief Qian, you haven't been here for a while. Are you going to eat or take a bath today?"
From what Yingbin said, we knew that Qian Zhongshan was a frequent visitor to the New World.
"You kid, are you still making a living in the New World?"
"Let's eat later and take a shower first. My body is not feeling well. I need to find a girl to give it a good massage!"
"The two little brothers at the back are also with me."
"Everything I spend in the New World tonight is mine. Hurry up and open the door. I'm freezing to death!" Qian Zhongshan took out a few cents from his wallet and tipped the familiar greeter.
The greeter immediately opened the door, welcomed the three distinguished guests in, and greeted the waiters inside, greeting them well.
Throwing his coat into the closet, Qian Zhongshan swaggered along the corridor and entered the bathing area.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, the bathhouse is still as lively as ever.
It was because of the sudden large-scale manhunt that many old faces disappeared, which made Qian Zhongshan a little regretful.
His hands have been itchy recently, and he wants to rub them with his old friends some more!
Qian Zhongshan took off his clothes. There were a lot of big men in the bathhouse, so there was no need to be polite.
If there were no women in this world, the meaning of clothes would be greatly reduced. Of course, in the cold winter months, you still have to wear more clothes.
The New World Bathhouse opened many years later than the Hengde Bathhouse, but the latecomer has caught up and has already left the elder far behind.
The key to success is this six-meter-long, two-meter-wide public bathtub.
(I really can't find the right word)
The hot water in the large pool is over 40 degrees Celsius. When you lie down in it, you feel extremely comfortable and can drive away all the fatigue of the day.
Qian Zhongshan sat in, soaked the towel and covered his face to relieve the fatigue of the whole day.
"Green radish, green radish, sir, do you want green radish?"
Qian Zhongshan had just closed his eyes when he was disturbed by the shouting. He took away the towel with some annoyance and said to the waiter: "Put down a plate and get out of here!" After scolding, he also shook the hand on his wrist at the salesman.
hand cards.
After making money, the salesman didn't care whether he was scolded or not. He immediately put down a plate of green radishes, remembered the number in his hand, and ran away while the customer was not angry.
Qian Zhongshan doesn't like eating green radish, he likes smelling it.
When I was still in my hometown, my family would plant a large circle of radishes around the fields in early autumn, and wait until they grew up to cook them as vegetables.
No matter how delicious something is, you will get tired of it if you eat too much, not to mention vegetables like radish which don’t have much flavor.
Having lived in Harbin for many years, Qian Zhongshan has almost forgotten what his hometown is like.
He could only remember the old camphor tree in the yard at home. His father often said that when his sister grew up, he would cut it down and make two camphor wood boxes to give to Niu Niu as a dowry.
It is a man's responsibility to go out to study and bring glory to his family.
After entering the military academy, participating in the Northern Expedition, and buying a house and land in Nanjing, the family was on the right track under his hands.
However, he has become more human than human, and more ghost than ghost.
Sometimes, he even forgets what his name is!
Is it Qian Zhongshan or Rong Yihai?
A top field agent will completely integrate into the false identity and become that person.
The familiar process is painful and long.
"Sir, please cover yourself up for a while, then you are going to see the former Prime Minister!"
Just when Qian Zhongshan was thinking a lot, a familiar voice suddenly came to his ears.
"I am so filthy that I have no face to see the former Prime Minister."
"It's better to go to hell. Where are all my old friends? If I'm unlucky enough to go to heaven, I'll be in trouble!"
Qian Zhongshan wiped his face with a towel and looked at the man beside him with burning eyes, but the expression on his face was slightly helpless.
Hell and heaven are just different places of residence.
