"Shanxi Wild Sheep in mind"
37 years old, I had one of their own company. The company has two personal, financial and me. Finance is mainly for me dealing with particularly troublesome for me, "I really make how much money" issue. Of course, a story of Wang did not happen to me before, in this "anytime, anywhere and communicate unlimited" era, I decided to go to his family in Shanxi travel.
T318 Train stopped at 5:38 am Sanmenxia Station, Wu Yongze at the exit waiting for me. Through the quiet of the Yellow River Bridge, we went to the Xinjiang County, was admitted to the xinjiang hotel. Xinjiang is located in southern Shanxi Province, is Xueren Gui's home, the famous scenic spots with Wang Zhihuan of Guanque Lou, was built in the Sui and Tang's "purple-red Morii Garden", the Yellow River buffalo, there will be smoking Xing-tower. Unfortunately, I have no interest, direct immediate concern of the Wu's home: about 50 km from the county town of Yang Wang.
Yang Wang Chen-rich fruits, with nectarine, apricot and apple. 51 period, the greenhouses where the nectarine has matured, we have to stop the car, sneaking into the shed to adopt a box of nectarines, enjoy wholesale price: 3.2 yuan / jin. Nectarine surface, such as playing a layer of wax, heads little crunchy way.
Wu has been in the car for us to a sheep, therefore, one to the town to see someone slaughtered an old sheep weighing 30 kilograms, Xiaowen of the sheep cry out: The wolf is coming. Unfortunately, the sheep do not understand. Sharp knife stabbed down from the throat, the blood surged in the basin, and then a pick up a knife, cut down on the sheep's head, eyes still wide open. I really hate to see more, just a small town on the turn a bit, bought a bag of Hill residue, bovine, and a July 15 worship wooden cake mold to do. There with a red clay with the noodles in a hot food in a small baking is said to be able to Yangwei, very good to eat.
Town of loess is flying high, sunny day, wearing a straw hat standing on the street doing nothing, feeling played a cowboy in the film. Shanxi dialect, life three treasure: straw hats, steamed bun and cotton-padded jacket. Hat is a special Yellow River woven into the Wei Cao, and that the ears of the old prophets of wearing a hearing aid: This hat can be worn ten years.
Come back, the sheep have been left a share of the long ribs. Shanxi entertain guests, usually in the morning to eat noodles, and then lunch later than normal to open (2:00 later), so we first went to Wu's home. Experienced the real Shanxi compound. Most run-down old house, leaving behind a number of vicissitudes of brick carving. The new compound is usually the door with a glossy screen wall, and then you can see the spacious courtyard. Construction are generally high, one into the living room suddenly felt and the outside temperature. Even the latrine is also great, no eaves, the kinds of persimmon trees, almost no smell, is a very good rest of the places (哈哈)
Wu's motorcycle sat at noon, turning a lap around town, the town before a pond, across a stage, written during the Cultural Revolution slogans and empty it Jigen only age-old pillars. Not far away there are people at the funeral, and set up a large pure white hall.
Three in the afternoon before dinner, fen open side of the roast lamb. Playing dice here, liked to drink, commonly known as "bragging." Did not expect that swept the country Miss K room even kill the technology originated from Shanxi, straight drinking rickety, while hsing go.
Back to the Wu Courtyard and see a beautiful round moon. 坐在院子里drink tea, listen to Washeng 1. Xiao-Wen and her little brother, new knowledge WU Xiang (Wu's youngest son, small named two eggs) for us to perform a "fashion show", while wore straw hat, while holding a slingshot, amused us rock with laughter.
Early morning wake-up has been the voice of a bird. Fresh air and land like a piece of glass. Go to town to eat breakfast, cake for fifty cents an on the tea-oil. Wang Chen-yang famous diamond processing, so you can see in other places do not see the scene: some very run-down shop early edge next to a lot of fashionable shops selling diamond ring, of course, price is not expensive, the average 16 points number of ring plane also 900, only slightly worse process.
Eating breakfast, followed by Wu to "ditch" turn full circle. It was his childhood treasure to play the mountain with his father left him two persimmon trees. (Persimmon can eat can also be used to do the old vinegar, persimmon leaves can be chopped and put inside the existence of a bun fragrance, so persimmon is Baoshu). Silence of the ditch seems to be able to hear the sound of falling leaves. Now the village is no longer used firewood for heating, ditch the plant have also been well protected, there are often hare, fox, etc. come and go.
Noon return to xinjiang City sees apricot patches, into a number of mining, because the season too early, therefore, compare Suanse. Had passed through his hands only addiction. Went to the Wu's friend's house, bought some Huaihua honey, the real pure honey, 5 yuan a pound. Friend said: the city people are rich and did not eat something good, country people had no money to do eat well. Consider also quite justified.
Afternoon Meimeideshui of a life (but I did not dream of turning into a little bee), night eating, animal husbandry, Kawara fat-marbled beef hot pot, drink fen. And then drove nearly an hour to the Houma City singing, honest way Miss do not even have. Fang Ge 20 yuan / hour.
The next morning ate Xian Rou Gamo, and red bean porridge. For us Southerners, the Shanxi seems dry, easy to get angry, but the dust is also relatively large. Therefore, to drink plenty of water Eat more fruit.
Xinjiang There is a Dutch-built Catholic church, is the four biggest Gothic church building (the other in Shanghai, Qingdao and Guangzhou). Guangzhou, the church is said to all to do with stones, while the church here, with the local architectural style of the brick to make it appear blue and calm atmosphere. Was built in 1937, one spent two years time, it took 900 taels of gold, are from a Dutch missionary named Kong donations. The tower was demolished during the Cultural Revolution, and now is the complement built large bell was removed in 1985 and shipped to many countries, and can be considered to complete the final wish of Mr. Kong (God bless him lived to 102 years old). Kneeling on the steps of the two sculptures of sheep, appears to call the Lost soul. Side there is an abandoned charity hospital.
If my company can earn a lot of money, I swear I will go to build a village church, in the prior to paying the money does not rot.
This cranky with, and replace the T362 times train back to Shanghai. Xiaowen in Sanmenxia learned to blow bubble gum outside the railway station.
