? The first thing you need to know is how good it is to live in such an environment! It is said that one side of the water and soil to raise one side of the people, Jiangnan certainly more out of the literati talent. Writing here and inadvertently remembered Lu Xun's "social theater", "my hometown", Shen Congwen's "Border Town". Lu Xun's two essays focus on describing the beauty of the water towns in Jiangnan. One of the scenes I still can't forget is sitting on a boat on a bright moonlit night, with the breeze blowing on my face, mixed with the fragrance of grass and wheat seedlings. My friends were paddling happily, the boat was moving fast, and the mountains and trees in the distance were receding rapidly. The partners of the joyful laughter and the singing of insects and frogs broke the quiet moonlit night, the author's heart is very happy and very much looking forward to the social theater. It's really beautiful, so beautiful, exuding the innocent and lively atmosphere unique to childhood. It y evokes the memories of my childhood, those carefree days, playing games with my friends, fishing for shrimp.
Writing is far away, or quickly feel the charm of Suzhou! First of all, let's talk about the lotus root and Brasenia schrebergeri in Suzhou. Early in the morning in the new autumn, the door will pass by many townspeople, each of them carrying a pair of burdens, holding a fresh jade-colored long section of lotus root, with a cheerful smile on their faces. Cut the lotus root into thin slices, chew a mouthful, and you can taste the light and sweet flavor, and there is no lotus root residue, which is not comparable to lotus root elsewhere. Brasenia schreberi is best produced in Taihu Lake and West Lake in Hangzhou, which is tender and smooth, with a fat flavor. Brasenia schreberi itself has no flavor, the taste of all good in the soup, get a taste of the people, no one said great. Then talk about the kunqu in Suzhou, kunqu is downright scholarly class entertainment products, naturally, kunqu in the rhetoric of the meaning of the general public can not understand. In addition, its tune is very slow, a word extended to more than a dozen beats, it is even more difficult to understand, so listen to the first to memorize the text of the song. The string performance of kunqu, song and dance, movement and singing should be consistent. I'm afraid it's more difficult to pass on the kunqu nowadays because of its special characteristics!
The most common means of transportation in the water town is the boat, and there are three kinds of boats on the rivers of Suzhou, namely, the dangdang boat, the fast boat, and the crow's nest boat. The layout of the boat and boat food is very delicate, boat food are small bowls, do the same is the same, soup is not mixed, the material is not sloppy, look also very delicate. Sitting on the boat in the city tour, originally thought it was a very good thing, but sometimes encountered a lot of traveling boats, the river is narrower, it is crowded, but fortunately the boatman's skill is high, will not touch the boat. Inside the city, the river is more seriously polluted, most of the residents of the city's domestic garbage discharged into the river, in the summer, you will see white and green watermelon rinds floating in the river. Out of the city, the river is wide, the pollution is gone, and the view is suddenly also a lot of broad.
? Suzhou's famous tea Biluochun is not less, produced in the Dongting East and West Mountain, the cord is slender, curled like a snail, velvet cloak, silver green hidden green, seems to contain infinite spring color. Soup color green and clear, rich aroma, mellow flavor. Early in the morning to the tea garden in the countryside, light sunshine through out, the wind blowing trees, full of dancing new green. Roadside saw tea picking women, each hanging a contempt basket, full of tea buds picked. The first is said to be only four or five times a year.
Mention of Suzhou will be associated with the Suzhou Garden, such as the Humble Administrator's Garden. I'm afraid that the garden is the most indispensable is the rockery, but the rockery is stacked up by the chaotic stone blocks, high and low, convex and concave, the sun shines in the name of the above a dark piece, fragmented, not like a real mountain. But why is it still indispensable in the garden? It is said that the rockery in the garden plays a barrier role, if the whole garden scenery at a glance, it seems too monotonous, too blunt. On the contrary, if there is a rockery of the cover, the peaks and valleys, since it is a unique flavor. There is also a stone is also a spiritual object, is an important part of nature, the owner of the garden want to have most of the things in the world, will be the landscape, flowers, plants, fish and insects are all in the eye, have a sense of fulfillment to meet. Flower walls are also highly valued in garden architecture and serve as a barrier. The wall is built into a variety of openwork patterns, through the light, you can see the view of the partition wall, it seems more interesting.
