I don't know where I go. I'm casual. I don't have a preset destination or a travel guide, so I can go wherever I want.
Although the small bridges and flowing water houses depicted by the Tianjingsha in Ma Zhiyuan are the scenery of the ancient road in the west of Beijing, I always feel that it is more appropriate to compare them with the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River.
One Qinhuai River and several stone arch bridges are structurally similar to the ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River.
The difference is that the ancient town is a place where ordinary people live, or with several large gentry, it has simple folk customs; Qinhuai River is a place where famous families live together, where literati linger, where talented people and beautiful women are romantic, and Qinhuai Bayan is the spokesperson of Qinhuai River's lamp shadow. The business atmosphere is heavy and the smell of gold powder is rich. It was once extremely prosperous and famous.
Since I'm visiting Qinhuai River, I'll dig out Zhu Ziqing's "Qinhuai River in the Shadow of Paddle Lights" and read it to compare the past and the present.
Things are very different in the same Qinhuai River. Now, the lamp shadow is still there, and the singer is gone, leaving Li Xiangjun's former residence, which can be vaguely mourned.
There are two kinds of boats in Zhu Ziqing's works, one is a painting boat, and the other is a seven-board boat. Nowadays, the only boat that shuttles through Qinhuai River can take dozens of people. The boat is decorated with colorful lights, reflecting the river. The original boat is electric, and naturally it is equipped with electric lights. Compared with the previous Zhu Ziqing era, it may be faster and brighter. However, only the motor chug chug, but there is no paddle sound.
A few days ago in Zhujiajiao, I took an awning boat rocked by a boatman. Only six people can sit on it, and I can also take photos at the bow. Nowadays, when I look at the original boat, I always feel that the taste is not enough. There are neat rows of tourists sitting in the original boat, and there is no room for walking, even standing, and they are not allowed to go out to the deck. It's okay to sit on the side of the ship's rail, so you can give him a look. When you are happy, you can wave with the people on the shore. Sitting in the middle, sandwiched by others in all directions, is boring to watch, and the charm is discounted, so there is no interest in taking a cruise.
instead of taking a cruise, let's find a place near the water.
In order to find the melody, I specially chose a music restaurant called Shibapai. There is a small stage in the inner room. Punk-style female musicians play the guitar and sing by themselves. At first glance, they decided that they were against the Qinhuai River. I couldn't think of the gentleness of Liu Rushi. Maybe it was poisoned too deeply by Zhu Ziqing. I always compare it with Qinhuai River in the shadow of oars. This melody is not what I wanted. Fortunately, it faces the river outdoors.
The wind in late spring, with the water vapor in the south of the Yangtze River, makes southerners living in Beijing feel particularly cordial. Not far from a single-hole stone bridge, a boat is passing by. Although there are not many people on the upper reaches of the bridge, it is not cold and cheerless on a non-holiday night. On the other side is a trail near the water. People who don't take a boat walk on the shore to watch the night in Qinhuai.
Every few minutes, a painting boat comes from the darkness, and most people choose a cruise ship! The closer the lighting is, the brighter it will be. When it passes through the bridge opening, the shadow of the lamp will become more and more blurred, and then it will disappear in the distance.
Wu Di Wu Nong's soft language, such as a few rocking boats, a singer standing on the deck singing a few words, so that the song is ethereal on the water and a few incomprehensible dialects are heard, how charming it is! The singer was dressed in Hanfu, letting the river wind blow his long skirt, while the swaying man wore coarse clothes and a hat. How picturesque it was! Leaning against the railing, I daydreamed aimlessly, as if there was a Liu Rushi and a Dong Xiaowan for a while ...
Occasionally, people in the original boat waved at me, and I smiled and waved in return. People in the boat patted me on the railing, and I put the original boat into the camera, which was quite artistic, "The bright moon decorated your window, and you decorated other people's dreams".
A plate of fresh braised broad beans, a plate of Longjing shrimp, a bowl of duck blood vermicelli soup, and a boiled edamame are authentic Jinling characteristics, and accompany me in the time of Jinling Qinhuai ...
