Jiangxi's northern Jiangxi is adjacent to Hunan, Hubei and other places. Its capital is the famous Nanchang, and its south is the famous Jinggangshan. In such an area, most people dare not mention him casually. In addition, Jiangxi is mainly mountainous, and the development space is limited after all. Therefore, its sense of existence has always been suppressed in a lower position.
However, when we mention Jiangxi in the Ming Dynasty, we have to mention Wang Yangming, a master of mind, who has always played a very important role in the history of China's idealistic philosophy.
He always does whatever he wants. He also likes Gezhu and thinks about his life. He is a great man who has seen through the philosophy of the world. If it is not the limitation of the times, he will certainly make more effective achievements. After all, he was the main contributor to pacify the rebellion of Ning Wang. If it were not for the current situation, he would certainly be able to achieve greater success.
Jiangxi is also the birthplace of the famous Duanyan, which was very popular among the dignitaries in ancient times. Bao Zheng, a famous official in the Song Dynasty, also liked to use it very much. There is a legend that Bao Qingtian did not accept gifts when he was an official in Jiangxi, and as a result, he threw Duanyan into the river and threw it out of a scenic spot.
The folk customs in Jiangxi mainly have the following four points:
1. Tea-picking opera: Gannan tea-picking opera is one of the local operas in Jiangxi. It evolved from the combination of folk tea-picking lanterns and folk lanterns, and then absorbed and combined with folk dances in Nanchang. Nanchang tea-picking drama is humorous, beautiful and affectionate, and has a strong local flavor of Nanchang.
2. "drying the robes on June 6th": It is said that the sixth day of the sixth lunar month is the day when the Dragon Prince and the temple bodhisattvas dry their robes. This day is full of yang and the climate is dry. The clothes that have been sun-dried on June 6th will not be moldy and moth-eaten. Therefore, on this day, every household has to rummage through all the clothes in the house and take them out to dry. This custom is actually a worship of the sun.
3. Begging for children: The custom of begging for children in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province is very local. In ancient Nanchang, there was a high-earth bridge in the center of the West Lake District, and there were 12 stone railings on the bridge. Every year on the night of August 15th, women came to the bridge, and when the moon reached the mid-day, they touched the stone pillars on both sides of Gao Qiao with their hands, and even put them in their arms. It was said that this would give birth to boys.
4. Ge Yang Opera, also known as Ge Opera and Gao Opera, is one of the four famous vocal systems in local operas in China. In the early Ming Dynasty, it was named after its formation in Ge Yang County, Jiangxi Province. The main performance features of Ge Yang Opera are big movements, rigorous figure, lively scenes and strong local flavor, which is suitable for folk performances. At present, there are 11 high-pitched operas in China that are related to Ge Yang Opera.
These things, which are ignored in the whole country, are still very precious in Jiangxi. For example, boys are always stronger and generally more capable than girls, so they are still valued in Jiangxi.
