Like all with the millennium-old cities, old town of Suzhou is also very concentrated, almost from the map in terms of a square-shaped quadrilateral. Basically, build and runs through the whole of the old city, in addition to the three horizontal 4 vertical spider web in general dense stream and a three-step, five-step Gexinggese a bridge outside the Watari, and then there are those who used to live, stay over a man of a certain politicians or Tang or Qing Ming, or the old-fashioned buildings and streets where they are located.
Out from the Humble Administrator's Garden, a stroll along the garden path south. Roads are not wide open on both sides are full of special features to do business, tourists shops, perhaps now more and more smart outsiders, rarely, from time to time there are a boss or female boss, speaking in I could not understand the "Wu thick soft words "to sell me something.
On that day, my hometown, Zhengzhou, under the first snow of this winter, while the phone is a good one this side sunny.
OK to look at the map is long overdue, but I was a little "to protect neighborhoods" feeling not found in the well, a roadside vegetables aunt gave me "vernacular," for a long time before they finally understand, I have gone through.
Re-Shui turn back, the river bridge on both sides of the two wide alley! Heart began to wonder, Is it really because of our ancestors left behind the "industry" too much it?
Doubt doubt go to see, or want to see. Shun path along this road, but 10 steps, click on the open road in front of a lot, three horizontal 4 vertical they do not know exactly which one of the river north and south winds, probably about 10 meters wide river in the afternoon sun careless leisurely lazy lazy The scatter on the top, no wind, no waves. To go a few steps there will be several stages of bluestone steps, a first-order-order did not direct the water. Shore, no, we should say the water, thick layers of piling up a wide section of stone, stone brick base of the above is out of houses. "Monarch to Gusu see, people do pillow River. Furumiya busy little arable land, more bridges Water Alley. The night market to buy Ling Ou, Chun-ship Yohomi. Afar moon night, Acacia at the Fishermen's Song." This is the first Chinese Du Xun-he poetic description of the old Suzhou sadly leaning daily life for people living river scenes, and today, this is still along the river pass away, "Rendezvous overlooking the boat series," the old-fashioned street in front of the emergence of the Sang Sang.
That day with the people on both sides of the river is not a lot, or in the face, or sideways from time to time one or two dressed in case of partial deduction commoner, his head wrapped in plain towel, a bit on the older woman, or make or assume one or two A large red paint bucket in the river wash. I know that this is only the south was the usual harem women's private matter --- toilet. It appears that between them the majority of Xu is to recognize, and crafts, while also laughing with each other to say, but where authentic Wu made but I do not understand is the word. I remember my friends and I have said in the past with series as the horses, to the era of ship travel, the little boat, is the ordinary people spread news, gossip and should be, according to the now now that the old style Although not present, could be this popular and simple habits, or to inherited down, the only difference from the water migrating to the shore.
Initially denied that was quite can not understand the families who live along the river, while we have not used the river water, steamed rice cooking, but routine sweeping and cleaning clothes and the like, is still largely dependent on the front of the Creek, such a " ruin, "the first place? But to wait for longer time, more to see and reach more people, events, scenery, slowly and understand. This stream is actually All roads lead to the river and the vast ocean, like exhausted all of the nourishment with the survival of the people depend on it, only the capacity-load to demand nothing. If we say that a certain somewhat different, it can only be the size and how many just Bale. Probably for this reason that human beings have a hydrophilic nature Bar!
Legitimate children, ear faint of heard a voice. Far from the best office, a shed on the surface of the water the boat is slowly opened, the "guru" "Gollum", slowly getting closer, the sound also will be the real them. It was a lot of wind and the sun appear to have experienced the Ukrainian wooden shed, the original wood color has less to identify, to see just a layer of Ukraine in the eyes of color. The dark sky and gradually down the river just now that a layer of bright golden slowly switching costs to the Yau green, the water reflected on the reflection of the riverside houses. Rivers, stone bridge, the vessel, housing a shadow, a good one graceful ink and light color pictures gentle.
Love to listen to spoken, and now in Suzhou city, in addition to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal outside the city are still a number of small rivers and outer Beidaihe is also connected together, this would still be manned vessels licensed movement. Early in the morning, outside the city a lot of farmers will take fresh fruits, vegetables with dew, its own little boat paddled the river, the river's Aunt aunt or even just one basket, rope a few feet, you can light Province band of light back panning. Also heard of another way, Suzhou, known as "Wu," it is "fish" means, in so far in Suzhou dialect "Wu" and "fish" is a pronounced "ng", and Suzhou, the "Soviet" character Its Traditional wording of "Su", from the general shape seems to mean if true. From this, the water seemed to Suzhou and Suzhou have become indispensable to the physical image.
