D12:八月桂花香- zoushi sugar
Who remember Chensong Ren's "八月桂花香," Rowan was hidden bitterness melancholy singing the theme song, as if suffering the fate of all of the changes are fatalistic, are able to respond calmly tunes. He did not expect, in the August zoushi actually smell the sweet-scented osmanthus fragrant.
"Corner", which means deposition of the water's edge, the corner so because the city side of the growing deposition Yuanjiang named.
Zoushi ancient times, because the water in this Yuanjiang slowed suddenly widened, boatman can be diverted at this rest stop for ships, Guizhou, Chongqing and other places of geographical advantages, have had several busy, especially during the war, large numbers of KMT officials ways to go here in Chongqing , ultimately, to do business in this, and entertainment, fireworks and all commercial shipping so strong together, Shen Cong-wen in the "Notes on Western Hunan" in Taoyuan specifically mentioned in the "flower donation" is Yanhua Xiang pay taxes. Such a thought, that our government may be more open than some of the Netherlands, red-light district of the legalization of tax administration may be earlier?
Today's corner, however, the city must difficult than the Xi. We can only figure in the streets and to search for "small Nanking," had been clues.
Withered down the street lost spacious, street-line pass by the eyes of a lack of goodwill, mostly self-serving, as the cold spectator; any bright colors in the overall tone of dust mixed with the taste, gay people are not up. Once-bustling left for today, I probably only bones of the contempt and the streets open-air teahouses, old people with old hat, a cup of tea a day of "running Fu," Time, home-style and lamented on the floating winds down. Ren is more dark and gloomy today.
Also allows zoushi not be forgotten, perhaps only a sweet-scented osmanthus sugar. The old state-run sugar sweet-scented osmanthus is more dire straits than zoushi, only the backyard of a private sugar mills are still being heated to produce osmanthus sugar, footsteps follow clues Yi Xiang walked over. The past happened, sweet-scented osmanthus incense in August after the September picking off a layer of sugar to marinate in a layer of sweet-scented osmanthus half the height of magnetic tank, waiting in October next year's March the Osmanthus sugar production period. Older workers are basically in a state of complete hand-made sweet-scented osmanthus sugar, fried fried stuffing sugar, rock sugar, packet stuffing, smoking section, on the linen, with a few processes down, sweet-scented osmanthus sugar in the baked. The most ironic of all, a process should be considered sprout, sprout, by definition is to 100 kilograms of ice in the cold water pool to be set down precisely the temperature of sugar smoothing board, wrapped into a sweet-scented osmanthus made 160 kilograms of sugar filling a large bag of sugar Several workers shouting the hold to the warm hearth to bake, so that Microsoft is not big bag of sugar workers in the hands of its capability to make the effort, taking a non-wide non-sugar narrow section, which wrapped stream fragrance Osmanthus stuffing. Chopping board apart, Wang Dan, another worker put out the sugar orderly and tidy yards of documented on-board, and after cooling cut glue sesame.
Pumping of the process, and that the workers put two hands left to put the right move under the action, no rules to follow are totally natural, like some kind of ineffable gestures, also deemed an abstract dance, dynamic and harmonious.
Visit sweet-scented osmanthus sugar filling, the manager opened a hoard of sugar filling that bamboo lid, a surge of Yixiang hit, will I drown drunk.
Since then, the sweet-scented osmanthus with wine Xiangpiao always in my memory.
