An hour has two hours, divided into "beginning" and "positive", "beginning" represents the previous hour, and "positive" represents the next hour; Each of these hours has four quarters, and one quarter is fifteen minutes. So: "Mao Zheng three quarters" is 06:45.

A quarter is fifteen minutes, but an hour is divided into "beginning" and "positive", and the beginning of Mao is from five to six o'clock, divided into three quarters. Mao is exactly six to seven o'clock, divided into three quarters. Half past six is called "Mao Zheng two quarters"."Mao is three quarters"It was 6:45.

It's five o'clock to seven o'clock, how can it be 7:45? In addition, each hour is divided into the beginning and the beginning, and 6 o'clock is the "positive" of the Mao time, and the "Mao Zheng 3 quarter" should be 6:45

According to the sub ugly Yin Mao. After 11-01 o'clock in sub-time, add 6 hours, that is, 5-7 o'clock. And then it's three quarters. That means 6-7 plus three quarters and 45 minutes. It was around 6:45.

Every morning at 5 a.m., the hour is 15 minutes. The third quarter is 6:45

The right on the 2nd floor, hehe

A moment of excitement is ten brightness and five minutes, but an hour is divided into "beginning" and "positive", and the beginning of Mao is five to six o'clock, divided into three quarters. Mao is exactly six to seven o'clock, divided into three quarters. Half past six is called "Mao Zheng two quarters"."Mao is three quarters"It was 6:45.

Because clocks and watches were introduced to China in the late Ming Dynasty, it was the era described in "Dream of Red Mansions".

There are eleven mentions of clocks and watches in The Dream of Red Mansions, mainly self-striking bells.

1, the sixth episode "Grandma Liu entered the Rongguo Mansion" Grandma Liu suddenly saw a box hanging on the pillar in the hall, and there was a weighing stone at the bottom, but it was not a chaotic disguise.

2, the fifty-first episode of "Hu Yong's indiscriminate use of tiger and wolf medicine" Qingwen in Yihong Hospital injured the wind and clouds due to a cold and a warm: Baoyu asked: Can your head be hot?

Qingwen coughed twice. He said, "It's irrelevant, it's so delicate there," he said, and only listened to the "self-striking bell" on the ten grids in the outer room.

3, the fifty-second episode of "Yong Qingwen's illness to make up for the finch Jin Qiu" describes that Qingwen's illness has not yet healed and she made up for Baoyu until late at night, begging Baoyu to say: "Little ancestor, you just sleep!" "Xiayun:

Baoyu saw that he was in a hurry, so he had to fall asleep indiscriminately, but he still couldn't sleep. At one time, I only heard the "self-striking bell" have struck four times.

4, the eighty-ninth episode "People and Dead Things in the Son's Words", the seventy-second episode "Laiwang Women Rely on the Power to Marry Together", the ninety-second episode "Playing Mother Beads Jia Zhengshen Gathering and Dispersing", the thirteenth episode "Wang Xifeng Assists Ning Guofu", the nineteenth episode "Affectionate and Sincere Night Flower Explanation", and the forty-fifth episode "Wind and rain and sunset stuffy wind and rain words" all mention clocks and watches, and will not be repeated one by one.

Note: In 1580 (Ming Dynasty), the Western missionary Luo Mingjian introduced the chiming bell to China. In 1600 A.D. (late Ming Dynasty), Ji Tanran made the "Tower of Babel" (self-ringing bell) In the tenth year of Wanli (1582 A.D.), two Jesuits, Michael Ruggieri (1543 - 1607) and Francisco Pasio (1554 - 1612), on a rare opportunity to meet with the governor of Guangdong, presented a Western chiming bell unheard of by Chinese as a gift in exchange for their stay in Zhaoqing.

The special residency of four or five months set the stage for the activities of Catholic missionaries such as Matteo Ricci (1552 -1610) in the late Ming Dynasty.

: There are many descriptions of clocks and moments in Dream of Red Mansions. For example, in the fourteenth chapter, Sister Feng said:

I'll do it at the second moment. I'm having breakfast. "In the nineteenth time, when I wrote Baoyu's life to take the watch, sure enough, the needle had pointed to the second quarter of the first month.

In the forty-fifth time, Baoyu took out a walnut-sized gold watch from his bosom, and looked at it, and the needle had been pointed to the end of the war. In the seventy-eighth episode, it was written that Qingwen died at the second moment. In the eighty-ninth episode, Bao Yu listened to the bell ringing on the shelf, looked down at his watch, and the needle had pointed to the second quarter of the first month, and so on.

These ancient methods of timekeeping are naturally a question for today's readers. I don't know exactly what time it is. In order to illustrate this issue, it is necessary to mention the history of clocks and watches in our country.

Clocks began to be introduced to China from Europe in the late Ming Dynasty, but Arabic numerals and Roman numerals were foreign languages that Chinese did not know at that time, and in order to adapt to the habits of the Chinese, foreign watchmakers changed him to Zi Qiu Yin 12 o'clock.

The clock you are talking about should be the earliest "hour clock".

Miaoyu is a nun, and there must be a bell in her house. As the saying goes: Which monk doesn't hit the bell!

Actually, ......Just like that peacock fur, it's also a foreign ......
