Sanmao, a female writer in Taiwan Province Province, went to Zhouzhuang in the early 1980s and had a good impression on Zhouzhuang. When she left, she told the local people who accompanied her that she would come again and she would definitely come.
However, it didn't take long for her to commit suicide in Taiwan Province Province, which failed to do so, leaving a regret for the world and Zhouzhuang.
In front of Zhouzhuang's "strange building", there is a huge stone tablet engraved with an article by Wang Jianbing, a famous China writer, in which Sanmao is also mentioned.
The article says: Sanmao loves to surf. Sanmao's footprints are all over the world. Sanmao's long hair is infected with all kinds of winds. Sanmao came to Zhouzhuang and cried. Sanmao holds Zhouzhuang like a grandmother who has been away for a long time. Sanmao is actually very lonely inside. Sanmao nagged Zhouzhuang day and night and ate snacks made by Zhouzhuang. San Mao said, I will come again, I will definitely come. Sanmao left in tears. When Sanmao left, she finally kissed the yellow rape flower given to her by Zhouzhuang, Huang Shoupa. Zhouzhuang's regret is that Sanmao didn't stay long. As soon as Sanmao left Zhouzhuang, she fell into greater loneliness and finally gave herself to a pair of socks. Sanmao still talked about Zhouzhuang when he died. Zhouzhuang knows that Zhouzhuang has always said so.
Maybe so. After San Mao returned to Taiwan Province Province, he left this world in a hurry without writing a word about Zhouzhuang. This may be the cause of loneliness, or it may be other reasons.
I once searched for Sanmao's travel notes, essays or essays about Zhouzhuang on the Internet, but unfortunately I didn't find them, nor did I find them.
When I was about to leave Zhouzhuang with my schoolbag on my back, I chatted casually with a tour guide. When I asked San Mao if he had written anything about Zhouzhuang in the past, the tour guide said, maybe not. However, if you want to know the detailed answer, you may have to go to Sanmao Teahouse to look for it.
Because of the time schedule, I didn't go to Sanmao Teahouse to look for it. On the high-speed train back to the station, I found some introductions of Sanmao Teahouse on the Internet, only to know that the owner of this teahouse was a news writer in the county when Sanmao came to Zhouzhuang. He didn't see Sanmao either, but he wrote a communication report "Sanmao in Zhouzhuang" according to the description of the person who accompanied Sanmao to visit Zhouzhuang at that time.
When this article appeared in the newspaper, the teahouse owner asked the newspaper to show it to Sanmao and wrote a letter to Sanmao. Soon after, Sanmao wrote back to him. In the letter, San Mao also said that he would come to Zhouzhuang next time and stay in Zhouzhuang for a long time.
In this way, the two had three or four letters until Sanmao died. The owner of the teahouse opened this teahouse in Zhouzhuang in memory of Sanmao and for Sanmao's unfulfilled wish.
Unfortunately, I don't have time to go, let alone talk to the teahouse owner about San Mao. However, this has become the best reason why I have to go to Zhouzhuang again. No one is there.
I saw a little book named Celebrity and Zhouzhuang in Ye Chuchen Memorial Hall that day, so I bought it. Back to the resident hotel, it took me more than a day to finish reading it. Coincidentally, the author of this book is the owner of Sanmao Teahouse, which contains articles commemorating Sanmao and his letters with Sanmao.
Perhaps Sanmao loved Zhouzhuang so much that she was killed by depression before she could savor Zhouzhuang.
Perhaps this is the charm of Zhouzhuang, which makes Sanmao leave with tears, and also makes Sanmao still think about it and remember it in another world.
Perhaps, this is a sad story about San Mao and Zhouzhuang as a living person and a person who likes Zhouzhuang.
