Chapter 62 go to shanxi

When he returned home after a field trip, Sicheng felt that he was the happiest person.Washing off his exhaustion, changing into casual clothes at home, and holding a cup of fragrant tea, Huiyin eagerly asked him about various situations and knowledge during his investigation while flipping through various materials of his surveying and mapping. When the photos taken by Sicheng were washed out, Huiyin was even more emotional: "The same temple was built in the Qing Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty. There is such a big difference! The eaves and brackets of the Three Great Scholars Hall make people feel It is heavy, and the temples of the Qing Dynasty lack this sense of heaviness and strength."

Huiyin looked forward to going out with Sicheng as soon as possible to see with his own eyes the treasures hidden in the deserted villages and mountains. The family is still very lively, not only old and new friends, but also relatives from the Liang and Lin families who often come to visit.Sicheng's two nieces are in college, and they usually come to Beizongbu Hutong for weekends. Sometimes their classmates also come together, because they like the artistic atmosphere and free atmosphere of the Liang family, and because they can meet here. literary celebrities.Although Huiyin is always busy with housework, he still publishes new poems from time to time.Sorting out Sicheng's investigation materials is also something she is willing to do.

In 1932, she completed her architectural thesis "Pingjiao Architectural Miscellaneous Records", designed the geological museum for Yenching University, and, together with Liang Sicheng, designed the dormitory for female college students in Huilou of Yenching University.The handrails of the stairs in the Huilou are slightly narrower than those of ordinary dormitory buildings, because female students have relatively small hands.Huiyin pays attention to details and pays attention to the perfection of details.The perfection of life is often determined by the details, and the perfection of a building is also determined by the details.

In 1933, his son Congjie turned one year old.There are round dimples on his chubby little hands, and he laughs when he sees people, which is very cute.Xiao Zaibing, who is more than three years old, already knows that she loves beauty. Every morning she wakes up and chooses her favorite dress to wear.Watching the child grow up day by day, amazed by everything in the world, and often ask some interesting questions unexpectedly, Huiyin is very happy.A pair of young children make Huiyin very busy and very happy.At work, she never compromises easily when discussing issues.But when I was with my children, I lost my mind at all.She dotes on the children, lets them go, and doesn't know how to love them.When Sicheng went to Shanxi for inspection, she decided to go with her, but seeing her lovely child before leaving, it was really hard to leave.But she still made various preparations before going out together with Sicheng.They spend a lot of time visiting the library, reading local chronicles and other books in various places, learning about the history, geography and religion of the place to be inspected, and recording the relevant architectural texts in order to formulate inspection catalogs and inspection plans .

Then there is the support of the local government.Most of the places they inspected were poor and remote areas. Without the support of the local government, their actions would be hindered because they were not understood by the local people, and sometimes even their lives were in danger.Before each departure, Zhu Qiqian, the president of the Construction Society, greeted the local government and the garrison through various relationships, asking them to give necessary care and protection to the inspectors; after the inspection, the local government was asked to properly protect these ancient buildings cultural relics.

Of course, there must be material preparations.Ancient architecture inspection is an obscure job.The construction society has limited funds. In addition to measuring and photographing instruments, each of them has a tool bag. When they climb on ancient buildings, the retractable rulers and other self-made tools in the bag can come in handy. .Drawing lessons from previous field trips where they had nowhere to eat and stay, they also prepared light hammocks, camp beds and some canned food.Sicheng and Huiyin planned to go to Datong first, and then to Yingxian.There are Yungang Grottoes in Datong, and there are Liao Dynasty wooden pagodas in Ying County.For a long time, the ancient wooden pagoda in Yingxian County has been giving Sicheng a hard time sleeping and eating.
