Chapter 7 Hefei Tour
1 Accommodation in Hefei
After leaving Chaohu, we went to Hefei and arrived at dusk. Hefei. The driver Uncle Hu and the tour guide Sister Song went home, and we checked into the hotel.
The luggage is packed, but the question is where to eat? We walked east out of the hotel and saw the intersection, so we turned left. Being unfamiliar with the place, I wanted to find a place to eat Anhui cuisine, but I couldn’t find it after looking for a long time. We saw a Mao's restaurant and ate there. We only had Hunan food to eat. We ordered wild mushroom soup, sizzling vermicelli, rice noodles and steamed pork...
The tragedy was heard on the TV: "Reporters speaking from the people, you "Okay!" "Host, behind me is the site of the coal mine collapse in Leiyang City, Hengyang, Hunan Province. 4 people have died and 16 people are trapped. Oh, one more person has been rescued. 5 people have been rescued and 4 are confirmed. Death, 3 people are confirmed to have survived, 4 people have no news. The reporter reported. "Okay, thank you reporter..."
What! Another Leiyang coal mine landslide? Poor coal miners!
2 Bao Gong
The first stop in Hefei: Bao Park.
Before I go, let me find out something about it first!
Bao Zheng was an upright official, and the Emperor of the Song Dynasty liked him very much. He would call Bao Zheng every time he went to court, but Bao Zheng did not want to stand out, so the emperor thought of a way to make Bao Zheng's hat wings. Chief, and ordered that whoever touches Bao Zheng's hat will die! It can be seen that the emperor of the Song Dynasty liked Bao Zheng very much.
When you walk into Bao Gong Temple, you first see Bao River, which is a moat in Luzhou. It turned out that the emperor wanted to give him the entire Luzhou, but Bao Zheng only wanted a section of the moat, which people called "Baohe". Bao Zheng raised fish and lotus roots in the river, and a miracle occurred: the lotus roots in the Bao River had no silk, and the backs of the crucian carp in the pond were black (iron), symbolizing Bao Zheng's "selfless" life.
Bao Gong was an upright official of the Song Dynasty and was also worshiped by the people of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, Li Hongzhang built the Bao Gong Temple for Bao Gong and even inscribed a plaque on it, hoping to hang it in the hall. However, Li Hongzhang's brother had already hung his own plaque on it. Li Hongzhang did not dare to disobey his brother, so he had to hang it outside the door. There are inscriptions on the two pillars.
Bao Zheng also wrote a poem: A pure heart is the root of the disease, and a straight path is the strategy of the body. Good work will eventually make a building, fine steel will not make a hook. Rats and birds are happy when the warehouse is full, but rabbits and foxes are sad when the grass is gone. There are lessons in the history books, don't bring shame to those who come.
Bao Zheng only lived 63 years old, but he had an extraordinary life and extraordinary abilities. Bao Zheng is the pride of Hefei and the pride of the Chinese people! Bao Zheng has always lived in our hearts from the Song Dynasty to the 21st century!
3. Bao Gong Ancestral Hall
Walking into the lobby of Bao Gong Ancestral Hall, there is a bronze statue of Bao Zheng sitting on it. On both sides are Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Chao Chao, and Ma Han. On the left side are three guillotines. The tallest and largest one is the dragon-headed guillotine, which is specially used to chop down some royal nobles; the larger one is the tiger-headed guillotine, which is specially used to chop down some officials; and the smallest one is the dog-headed guillotine, which is specially used to chop down some common people. Of course, this is just folklore, not true. Although ancient people were divided into noble and humble, it was not so complicated!
After leaving the lobby and walking along the corridor, there is a portrait of Bao Gong next to it, which probably tells the story of Bao Zheng's life. Bao Zheng never accepted gifts from the people from birth to death. He served as an official in Duanzhou and later moved to the capital. The inkstones that the people secretly stuffed into his luggage were discovered by him on the boat and thrown into the river. What a breath of fresh air!
Behind the lobby, there is a large lake. The lake is full of willow trees. With the sound of cicadas, the willow trees picked up by the breeze are dancing in the wind. It is so beautiful!
4 Qingfeng Pagoda
There is another attraction in Bao Gong Temple: Qingfeng Pagoda. Qingfeng Tower has seven floors. On the first floor, when you walk in, there is a big bronze statue. Needless to say, it must be Bao Gong! That's right, Mr. Bao stood as straight as a pine tree, holding a stack of case files in his hand. The "moon" scar on his forehead shone brightly. The entire bronze statue looked lively and serious.
We went directly to the top floor of Qingfeng Tower. The facilities are very good. There are not only modern stairs, but also elevators! ! ! The wind on the roof is so strong! You can see the entire moat.
The moat envelops the entire Luzhou, which is also the old Hefei, so it is named the moat.
I took the elevator down to the first floor, and there was a cute little girl on the elevator. Licking the ice cream, her mouth was filled with cream. She smiled so sweetly and looked at me happily. There is a big mural in the hall on the sixth floor. There are many boats on the painting, and there are many flags on the boats. The words on the flags are: Foot Passengers. I asked little sister Xu: "What is a foot guest?" "A foot guest! "Jiao" means resting, "ke" means inn, and the combination means "an inn for resting."" Oh! I didn't expect such a thing!
On the fifth floor, there are a bunch of royal musical instruments - chimes, which are very beautiful and lined up neatly. The staff played a piece of music for us, which was great! We all applauded in unison.
The fourth floor is not a mural, but a painting made of wood. The painting shows a group of people singing Peking Opera, wearing makeup, wearing headdresses, clothes, and holding orchid fingers. Needless to say, you know this. People pinch their throats, twist their bodies, and sing great dramas. It tells the story of when the Huizhou Troupe came to Beijing.
The third to second floors are all murals, dome style.
We met up with my mother, and she was sitting on the ground to rest!
5 Sanhe Ancient Town
The third stop in Hefei: Sanhe Ancient Town.
Sanhe Ancient Town is an ancient town with thousands of years of history. I walked onto the path. The stones on the path were slippery and shiny. They were made by countless people trampling on them. On both sides of the ancient street, you can see that some doors have begun to rot. They are very old and the thresholds are made of stone. Looking up again, there is a lantern hanging in front of the door. There are various surnames on the lantern. It turns out that such surnames are the surnames of the owners of every household. They are hung outside to let business customers know how to do business. call. Also, if you enter someone else's home and find that the table is semicircular, it means that the host is away and is not at home. When the host returns home, the table will return to the round shape.
We met a shop selling Fuguang Cup along the way. Sister Xu said: "The Fuguang Cup here will never be fake, because the owner of the famous Chinese trademark Fuguang Cup lives in Sanhe Ancient Town , he has a villa. "My mother was very happy after hearing this and bought 11 Fuguang cups, made of glass.
Along the way, we visited the former residences of many celebrities, including the former residence of Yang Zhenning’s grandmother. He studied here. My father specially let me walk through the alley he walked when he was studying. Said it was because of his talent. But it wasn’t fun, so I ended up going back to the hotel.
Forgot to mention, I also bought a little bird here. It’s very beautiful, it’s made of ceramic! You can blow it, but you have to put water in it.
Chapter 8 Farewell and Memories
1 Goodbye
There is no more cheerful chirping of magpies in the morning, and the air is filled with the sadness of parting. On the car ride to the airport, there was silence.
A few unrelated people were together for only five days, but they had an indescribable feeling when they parted. Maybe everyone will feel like this, and this may also be the sadness when parting.
When waving goodbye, everyone tried their best to smile, looked back at their backs, and opened their eyes wide for fear of uncontrollable tears bursting out.
When sitting in the waiting room, I no longer jumped up and smiled happily, nor did I have the energy to look up at the blue sky or watch the planes rising into the sky, nor did I look around. Spirit.
I got on the plane, and after it took off, I looked at the entire Hefei city below and thought: Goodbye Jiuhua Mountain, Goodbye Chaohu, Goodbye Sanhe, Goodbye Bao Park, Goodbye Uncle Hu, Goodbye Sister Song, Goodbye Little Sister Xu. ! See you all in Hefei!
Make sure no one around me pays attention to me, let the tears stay freely...
2 Uncle Hu
I often think of Uncle Hu and I can't help but smile. He is a driver and he served us during this trip to Anhui.
Uncle Hu is from Hefei. He is an uncle in his 40s, but he looks only in his 30s. I can call him uncle. He is not tall, has a thin build, and looks very capable. He is well-informed and funny, always smiling and sincere.
He told us the story of his three sons-in-law.
On Qingming Festival, my mother-in-law, father-in-law, three daughters, and three sons-in-law reunited. The father-in-law bought a horse and asked the three sons-in-law to perform drinking orders. The theme was to praise the horse for running fast.
The eldest son-in-law: The horse runs forward, and the mother-in-law pours a cup of tea. The tea is not cold yet, and the horse runs one mile.
Second son-in-law: The horse ran forward, raising dust on the ground. Before the dust settled, the horse ran a mile.
The third son-in-law thought for a while: The horse ran forward, and the mother-in-law farted. The stench was not gone, and the horse ran a mile.
The story is very funny. We all say that Uncle Hu is better than other teachers. He tells stories casually, has a great memory, is so eloquent, and has special concentration. I often laugh so hard that I laugh, but he doesn't do anything wrong.
Uncle Hu knew that I was writing a novel and asked me to include him in it. I said yes.
When we parted, he gave me a lot of pens and a beautiful diary for me to use when writing about him in the future.
Uncle Hu’s words always bring a smile to his face.
I envy Uncle Hu, not only for his talent, but also for his genuine smile.
