The name of Wu Yachang is derived from the fact that Wu Zhijia lived here in the Ming Dynasty, hence the name. Wuyachang is a long lane from east to west, which is about 400 meters long and 3-4 meters wide. Together with the riverside buildings in Shiquan Street and Shiquan River, it forms a beautiful scenery with Suzhou characteristics. Nowadays, cafes, workshops, design rooms, fashion clothes shops and private clubs have settled in this area of less than one mile.
This "Red Bean" is widely circulated, which is well known to women and children. Some people say that Wang Wei traveled through the South China, and after listening to the story of Xiao Tong and Huiru, he was inspired, and he wrote poems in one fell swoop, pinning his hopes on beautiful love. It was also said that this poem was written for Li Guinian and expressed profound friendship. Li Guinian is a famous musician of the Qiwang family, and Du Fu once wrote the poem on meeting li guinian down the river: "It's common in Qiwang's house, but Cui Jiutang heard it several times before. It's another year of good scenery, and it's a good time to fall flowers. " It is said in the series "The Poem of Daming Palace" that Wang Wei and Princess Taiping are in love with each other, and this poem is for Princess Taiping. Others said that this poem was written for his wife.
When it comes to red beans, we can't help thinking of the love story of Xiao Tong and Huiru. "when those red berries come in springtime" refers to Gu Shan in the south of the Yangtze River, where Xiao Tong once edited The Selected Works of Zhaoming. One day, he felt tired, so he trusted the horse to go out and relax. Jiangnan is the time when the peach is pink and the willow is green, and the river is green as blue. Everywhere, there are songs and dances, and the apricot flowers are misty and rainy. Xiao Tong couldn't help but be swayed by the spring, and unconsciously, she met a young woman, pink peach blossom, whose eyes flowed like a light cloud.
