I say you are April in the world,
The sound of laughter lights up the wind in all directions;
The light spirits dance and change in the light of spring. .
You are the clouds in the morning in April.
The wind is blowing softly at dusk,
The stars are shining inadvertently, and the fine raindrops are sprinkled in front of the flowers.
That lightness, that Tingting, you are,
You wear the crown of fresh flowers, you are
Innocence, solemnity, you are every night full moon.
The goose yellow behind the snowflakes, you are like;
The fresh green with the first buds, you are;
The soft joy and water are floating in your dreams and expectations of white lotus.
You are the flowers blooming from tree to tree.
It is Yan Zai Liang Wen who whispers, - You are love, warmth,
Hope, you are April in the world!
This little poem "You Are April in the World" with fresh style, meaningful artistic conception and full of spirituality has been popular for more than half a century and has touched many men and women. In the stormy old China, it was like a white lotus emerging from the water, swaying in the wind with a strong warmth...
"The great Si Si's Huiyin is the Bai Sinan" - this poem is the name of Lin Huiyin The reason why I first met Lin Huiyin was because of her poems and her emotions. She has made great achievements in poetry, novels, essays, dramas, paintings, translations, etc., and has left many almost legendary colors in our hearts, almost marking the colors of an era. Outstanding talent, stunning appearance, emotional life is like a spring fairy tale, happy and romantic.
What is even more noteworthy is that when introducing the character, she also has an identity that cannot be ignored - "architect". There are pictures in her poems, and she and Mr. Liang Sicheng have devoted their lives to In studying and protecting ancient buildings, in addition to a 10-year investigation of great significance, he also wrote the "History of Chinese Architecture", presided over the establishment of the Department of Architecture at Tsinghua University, and finalized the Chinese architectural research system as blank as a blank sheet of paper. The most valuable scholar in research. Today, let’s take a closer look at the life of Lin Huiyin as an architect.
In the 15 years from 1930 to 1945, Liang Lin and his wife traveled to 15 provinces and more than 190 counties in China, inspecting and mapping 2,738 ancient buildings, many of which were ancient buildings. It was through their inspection that the architecture gained outside recognition and was protected from then on. For example, the Dashiqiao in Zhaozhou, Hebei, the wooden pagoda in Yingxian, Shanxi, and the Foguang Temple in Mount Wutai, etc. They have traveled all over Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi and other places, surveyed and mapped more than 200 groups of buildings distributed in various places, and completed 1,898 surveying drawings.
Their field trips are actually a race against time. In addition to natural and human damage, war is approaching, and once ancient buildings are destroyed, it will last forever. They also know that even if there is no war, a stick of incense, a thunder and lightning, or a wrong thought of a person may turn the ancient building into ashes in an instant. They must pick up every piece of the scattered ruins on the land of the motherland in the shortest possible time. Every pearl.
Dule Temple in Jixian County
In April 1932, Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin presided over the survey and mapped the Dule Temple in Jixian County, an ancient Liao Dynasty building in the suburbs of Peiping. This was the first time that modern science was used in our country Then, in June 1933, we investigated Baodi Guangji Temple, in March 1933 we investigated Zhengding Longxing Temple, Hua Pagoda, Qing Pagoda and other ancient buildings; in November 1933 we investigated Zhaozhou Dashiqiao, Xiaoshiqiao, Tuo Roni Jingzhuan, these academic achievements have groundbreaking historical significance.
This is their first major discovery in the field. The mountain gate and Guanyin Pavilion in Dule Temple are original structures from the Liao Dynasty. Guanyin Pavilion is so similar to the Tang Dynasty buildings in Dunhuang murals. A sudden sight can give people the illusion of entering the paradise world in Dunhuang murals. Liang Sicheng had always had a soft spot for this charming Liao Dynasty pavilion throughout his life.
Foguang Temple in Mount Wutai
In June 1937, Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin began their third inspection in Shanxi. This trip was aimed at Foguang Temple in Wutai Mountain. They hoped to find a wooden building from the Tang Dynasty to refute the statement that wooden buildings from the Tang Dynasty could only be found in Japan.
During this inspection, the "July 7th Incident" occurred. After settling in Kunming, members of the Architecture Society arrived one after another. They began to inspect ancient buildings in the southwest again, and this time became their last trip and inspection.
The main hall of Foguang Temple in Wutai Mountain, Shanxi Province, can be called a national treasure among China's existing ancient buildings. It contains precious Tang Dynasty architecture, sculptures, murals and inscriptions, and has extremely high historical and artistic value.
"In June 1937, I went with Mo Zongjiang, Lin Huiyin, and Ji Yutang from the China Construction Society investigation team to this famous mountain in Shanxi to explore ancient temples. After arriving in Wutai County, we did not enter From Taihuai, we turned north and headed towards the outskirts of Nantai. We rode pack mules into the mountains, walking on a steep and circuitous road, leaning against the shore, which was rugged and dangerous. We could overlook Tianlong as it curved along the mountain. , the trees are beautiful; the nearby mountains are in front of us, and the mountains in the distance are surrounded by majestic forms. The journey is very quiet and the scenery is very beautiful. At dusk, we arrived at Foguang Zhenrong Temple near Doucun and paid our respects. The main hall is a surprise. We have always held the belief that domestic temples must have Tang Dynasty architecture, and once we get a proof here." ——Liang Sicheng's "Record of the Architecture of Foguang Temple in Wutai Mountain"

"We should believe that everyone comes to the world with a mission. No matter how ordinary, small or insignificant he is, there will always be a corner where he will be put aside. , there is always someone who needs his presence. Some people live a life of simple stability and happiness in their own small world without being disturbed. Some people perform with gorgeous gestures in the chaotic world. A life of joys and sorrows."
Lin Huiyin is as famous as a "talented woman of the Republic of China" in literature, such as Xiao Hong and Zhang Ailing. Her representative poems are "You Are April in the World", "Lotus Lantern", " "Ninety-Nine Degrees" and so on.
"People say that when you carry your luggage, you are a passerby; when you put down your baggage, you find your hometown. In fact, everyone understands that there is no absolute stability in life. Since we are all passers-by, we should take it easy with us. With an indifferent heart, she walks through the fleeting years, smiling at the ups and downs of the world."
Her life has been dancing in peace and forging ahead calmly. The poems she wrote and her discussion and exploration of the characteristics of Chinese architecture are still the essence of our study today.
