Yesterday, I went to Xuchang with my good friend Liu Ying, the main purpose of which was to take a walk in Pangdonglai Life Plaza and feel their meticulous service. Unfortunately, Fat Donglai closed his business yesterday and had to wander elsewhere.
I went to wanda plaza for a walk in the afternoon, but I didn't want to shop. I spent the afternoon with three children from Liu Ying in the Children's Paradise, and visited the ancient city of Cao Wei in the evening.
The ancient city of Cao Wei is actually an old street. The street is very long, the ground is paved with uneven bluestone slabs, both sides are antique buildings, and there are rows of shops. At night, under the bright lights, it looks splendid.
Because it is an ancient city, it is especially lively at night. There are many tourists, and street vendors either shout loudly to attract business or perform to attract customers. But most of them sell snacks and gadgets, and the cultural atmosphere of Cao Wei in the Three Kingdoms is insufficient. The candied haws in Beijing, fried bean jelly in Kaifeng, fried chestnuts in the west, Osmanthus Jelly in the south of the Yangtze River, snail powder in Guangxi, and delicious food in Xi 'an are all available.
When the girl saw the fried bean jelly vendor, it was soft and glutinous, thoroughly refreshing, and the bottom of the pot was very burnt, so she was so greedy that she had to buy a sample. At that time, there were several people waiting in line. I said I would turn around and buy another one. She was very persistent and bought one. As a result, she gave it to me after eating a few mouthfuls, saying it was not delicious. I saw a family selling Osmanthus Jelly, golden yellow, cut into the shape of an oblique triangular prism, which looked very attractive. I imagined it was very sweet and greasy, but the boss said it was not very sweet. So I bought a piece and tasted it, and I felt cheated instantly. Why is this thing made of glutinous rice flour? It's strong and not sweet. The girl also bought Ciba, the price is not expensive, five yuan for fifteen, in a small bowl. Because I haven't eaten this stuff, Jiangnan people are full of eyes when they mention it. Once they eat it, they give it to me again! I knew it wasn't to her taste. Then I tasted one, another glutinous rice ball, and the feeling of eating the skin of glutinous rice balls! Okay, that's enough.
I like several store names. One is the name of the hotel, "Meeting Xi 'an", which seems to be a poetic reunion with an old friend. Needless to guess, it's full of Xi 'an cuisine. Another shop is called "Lost". What is easy for people to lose? Childhood, so it is full of childhood toys. All kinds, ancient and modern, simple and modern, integrated into one!
There is a shop called "Cao Cao Pavilion", and I thought it was finally related to Cao Wei. It must introduce this history. When I went in, I saw only a statue of Cao Cao, and two signboards on both sides introduced the figure and the history of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Others sold snacks and trinkets. It turned out to be selling dog meat by hanging sheep's head!
There are two people in the street wearing blue gowns ready to perform. I thought they were going to talk about cross talk, but I couldn't help thinking of the Deyun Society in Beijing, so I stopped to watch. As a result, the pop song "Don't go, I won't go ..." floated out of the exit, so I'd better hurry and look elsewhere.
Go on, there is a red lantern hanging high, which seems to be ready for the upcoming Lantern Festival. Unfortunately, the lights inside are not lit.
I found another "Dukang Building", which is "generous and unforgettable; How to solve the problem, only Du Kang! " It is also the money-making capital left by Cao Mengde to future generations.
The ancient street is two or three miles long. Go to the end and turn back. People are constantly flowing, and I wonder how long the noisy nightlife will last. Go home, save your strength and visit Fat East tomorrow!
