1. The silk reeling incident in ancient times?Leizu was the empress of Emperor Huang. She was virtuous and kind, and she was the founder of teaching people to raise silkworms and reel silk. Legend has it that when Huangdi celebrated his victory over Chiyou, a beautiful girl wearing horse skin came to offer silk. This was the legendary silkworm god. It turns out that in ancient times, a father and daughter raised a horse. Because the father had been away on an expedition for several months, the daughter missed her father very much. While feeding the horse, she joked, "Horse, horse, if you can find your father, I will marry you." Unexpectedly, the horse heard the girl's words, broke free from the reins and ran away. A few days later, it carried the girl's father back. The father and daughter were very happy to meet, but the daughter did not mention anything about marrying the horse. From then on, the horse lost its appetite and kept wailing. The father was puzzled, so the daughter told him what happened. After knowing the truth, the father felt that it would be a disgrace to the family if the horse became his son-in-law, so he had to kill the horse with great pain and peel off the horse skin to dry in the yard. Unexpectedly, the girl was still not satisfied, and stepped on the horse skin and said, "You are a beast, and you still want to marry me, you deserve to be killed!" Unexpectedly, the horse skin suddenly jumped up from the ground, wrapped the girl up and ran away. From then on, the girl wore horse skin, lived in the branches, shook her head and spit out silk, day and night, as if telling her unfortunate experience. Later, people called the creature that spit silk "silkworm", the tree "mulberry", and the girl wearing horse skin became the silkworm god. Today, the Yellow Emperor's celebration has the silkworm god offering treasures, which adds to the festive atmosphere. Leizu listened to Huangdi's story about the silkworm god, and then looked at the treasures offered by the silkworm god - two twists of silk that were yellow like gold and white like silver. She couldn't calm down for a long time. She secretly made up her mind to make the silk spun by the unfortunate girl become useful to the people of the world. So she got up early and went to bed late to raise silkworms. With her careful care, the silkworms multiplied and the number of silkworms increased. She used her accumulated experience in raising silkworms to teach more women to raise silkworms. After they mastered the silkworm raising technology, Leizu, with her wisdom and extraordinary talents, painstakingly studied silk weaving technology. She and her sisters repeatedly discussed and exchanged skills many times. After countless failures and explorations, she finally used silk to weave a kind of light and soft silk that was as smooth as flowing clouds and water. In order to commemorate the Snail Ancestor, later generations built temples and offered sacrifices to Leizu wherever she went. Some legends simply called Leizu the Goddess of Silkworms. Now, there are many places in my country named after Leizu, such as Leizu Mountain, Leizu Ping, Leizu Cave, Leizu Peak, etc. 2. What did Leizu show by raising silkworms?That is: Leizu invented and spread sericulture and silk reeling, and was revered as the "Silkworm Ancestor" by later generations and the "Silkworm Goddess" by the people; she not only left behind material civilization for future generations to escape the cold and heat, but her spirit of "creation, invention, dedication, and taking the world as one's own responsibility" will shine through the ages. Therefore, promoting Leizu culture should be the unshirkable responsibility of us and China today. This is also the reason why many places across the country are vying to declare that Leizu is their fellow countryman. 3. Founder of sericulture and silk reeling?Leizu The founder of sericulture and silk reeling was Leizu, a figure in ancient China. She was the wife of Emperor Huangdi. She invented sericulture and was known in history as Leizu the First Silkworm. Leizu was a great inventor, scientist, and politician. Together with Huangdi, she quelled wars and stabilized the people. She not only promoted the development of human civilization, but also promoted the progress of the Chinese nation. 4. Who is the King of Silk?Legend has it that it was Leizu who invented sericulture and silk reeling. Leizu, also known as Lizu, was a figure in ancient China. She was the daughter of Xiling clan and the first wife of Emperor Huangdi. She invented sericulture, which is known in history as Leizu the founder of sericulture. 5. What lesson does the story of Leizu raising silkworms teach us?Leizu's silkworm breeding and silk reeling tell us that our ancestors' discoveries and creations came from production practice. They were hardworking, wise, good at drawing knowledge and summarizing laws from life experience, leaving behind valuable life skills for future generations. In ancient times, there was a princess named Leizu in the Xiling tribe. She was young, beautiful, smart and clever, and everyone in the tribe loved her. One day, Leizu built a stove under a mulberry tree to boil water. While adding firewood to the stove, she watched the white silkworms on the mulberry tree spinning cocoons, and she became more and more fascinated. Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and a cocoon fell from the mulberry tree and fell into the boiling water pot. Leizu was afraid of dirtying the boiling water, so she used a branch to fish out the cocoon. But she didn't get the cocoon, but a long, white, transparent silk thread, which kept getting longer and longer. Leizu then used a short branch to wind the silk thread up into a ball. Leizu looked at the ball of pure white silk thread and suddenly remembered the scene of her and the girls weaving cloth with plant tendons. She came up with the idea of using this silk thread to replace plant tendons for weaving. She picked a few more silk cocoons and wound them into silk threads. She tried it out and really wove a piece of white silk. When she put it on her body, it was soft and beautiful. The girls in the tribe were very surprised. Leizu began to teach them to collect silk cocoons from mulberry trees in the wild, to spin silk threads and weave silk. Later, she picked mulberry trees and raised silkworms, and reeled silk and wove silk by herself. Soon, the Xuanyuan tribe and the Xiling tribe formed an alliance, and Leizu married the leader of the Xuanyuan tribe. When she got married, Leizu made a beautiful dress with the silk she had woven, and dyed it red with Impatiens petals, which made her even more beautiful. She made a spacious robe for the leader of the Xuanyuan tribe, dyed it yellow with the fruit of the gardenia, which shone with golden light and looked very majestic. From then on, the ancestors of the tribe called him "Yellow Emperor". Because Leizu was the first to pick mulberry leaves and raise silkworms, later silkworm farmers respectfully called her "the first silkworm god" or "the goddess of silkworms." |
