Another year of pear blossom white

The spring breeze is getting warmer and warmer, and there are no clouds in Wan Li. On April 10, the 5th Zezhou Nanling Pear Flower Tourism and Culture Festival kicked off in Gewan Village.

Another year, pear blossoms are white, and thousands of acres of trees are like the sea. There are clusters of pear blossoms everywhere at the foot of the mountain, like snowdrifts, clouds and silver waves, which dress up the rolling Nanling Mountains as a natural garden.

Early in the morning, people from Shiliba Township came here one after another to enjoy Gewangu Village, the scenery of the pear garden, the traditional food, the nostalgia, the charm and passion brought by the bustling pear garden, and all the laughter and laughter held in their stomachs were spilled at the pear flower festival.

? Lihua market

Located at the entrance of Gewan Village, the spacious venue is Pear Flower Market, with traditional skills and special cuisine. Whether it's the music performance of "Ecological Zezhou, Spring", the writing of poetry couplets with "flying flowers and long rhyme", or the snack tasting of "A clever woman can't cook without rice", this is the first stop for tourists to punch in.

Duan Xiaojun, a farmer paper-cut artist, arrived from Gao Hui village, 70 miles away. The paper-cut works he brought include "Pear Blossoms Attract Butterflies" and "Welcome to the Ancient Village", all of which are vigorous and smooth. Whether it's people or flowers, cordyceps or fish, they are lifelike and lifelike. He told me that he was creating paper-cut works to celebrate the centenary of the founding of the Party. The banner is 20 meters long and 1 meter wide, which shows the main contributions of the party in various historical periods in stages.

The secretary of the Party branch of Daojie Village is often an excellent peasant entrepreneur. He brought the leather goods produced by Zezhou Haowai Trading Co., Ltd. to tourists. He combined modern design technology, selected the first-class cowhide and sewed it by hand with the exquisite skills of traditional cobblers, which was well received by customers.

In the southwest of Liyuan Market Square, there are two rows of local products brought by local farmers: honey products, peppers, "century-old yellow" stone mill millet, stone mill wheat flour, local sunflower oil, ecological yellow tea, dried pear slices and persimmon bumps stuffed with corn flour and beans. ......

Nanling Town has a wide hillside, lush vegetation, mountain springs all over the town, and mountains and rivers are rich in minerals, which has the effect of health preservation and treatment. There are a lot of fruits, among which crisp pears, walnuts, honey, tofu, persimmons and longevity cakes are called "six treasures" and are the most popular foods in Jincheng market.

Du Xiaobing, a 53-year-old villager from Gewan Village, came to the pear flower market with his honey products. Lv Jixiang, the president of Nanling Bee Industry Association, told me that there are many kinds of fruit trees in Nanling, and the flowering period lasts for several months in turn, which provides unique natural conditions for beekeepers. Beekeeping cooperatives and companies have been established in the town to provide raw materials, technical training, product processing and sales for beekeepers in the town. A few years ago, Du Xiaobing was poor because of his disability. The staff of Nanling Sub-branch of Zezhou Agricultural Bank took the initiative to help him make his own pure natural honey into a "Tujia characteristic" brand. The little bee took off the hat of poverty and paved the way for him to get rich.

The golden yellow "centennial yellow" stone mill millet brought by farmers in Wucheng and Gewan villages suddenly attracted tourists. The southeast of Nanling belongs to the red soil zone, with long growth cycle and high nutritional value. At the same time, the nutritional components of millet are concentrated in the epidermis, and the stone mill millet does not produce high temperature in the process of low-speed operation, which avoids the damage of mechanical equipment to the quality of raw grain and completely retains the nutritional components such as minerals and vitamins of millet itself.

? Poetic advertisements bring endless aftertaste to tourists;

? "Looking back a thousand times in my last life, I met once in my life." "One day, the bright red jujube was pitted and I met a walnut wrapped in skin. The walnut said to jujube that jujube would pit you together!" "Eat' a hundred years old yellow' and get along well for a hundred years!" ......

Near lunch time, the tourists are already hungry. So, they approached various "farmhouse" restaurants and chose delicious food: fried millet with leek, Lamian Noodles with Toona sinensis, and millet pancake with small tobacco. Every kind of food carries a culture, every dish carries a unique charm, and it is also full of the simple and kind affection of the mountain people.

? Aunt Li of Caohe Village used oil plaid hemp to make persimmons on the spot, which attracted tourists to buy them.

? I saw Aunt Li beating the noodles into gluten with hot water in a big pot, then adding some alkaline noodles and stirring them repeatedly. After a while, put the washed persimmons into the batter, then dip them in the batter with just the right viscosity with chopsticks, wrap the persimmons in the middle of the batter layer by layer, wrap them into balls and put them into a hot oil pan. ....................................................................................................................

? "Chai Huo Fu Bing" is a traditional food that suddenly "caught fire" after being broadcast by CCTV in Duanhe Village in recent years. Duan put the "firewood cake" made at home on the table. The word "Fu" is printed on it, and it has a lace firewood blessing cake, which is crisp and yellow, with sweet persimmon juice and honey on it, and has the smell of firewood. It's really mouth watering!

? Duan, while attracting tourists, introduces the making process of firewood praying cakes to tourists:

? The original name of "Chai Fu Cake" is "Earth Moon Cake", which needs several procedures, such as kneading dough, kneading dough, rolling, spreading cakes, stuffing, pinching edges, printing, coloring and baking. The most critical process is baking. The baked moon cake has a unique taste and can maintain the taste of fruity wood by using the firewood baking method passed down from generation to generation.

? Please think about it! On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, on the day of festive harvest, when you are drinking Huang Chengcheng's millet and rice soup, while holding round persimmons and chewing sweet fortune cookie, you will feel that your life and your life are all sweet.

Flower sea blind date

? Or a romantic advertisement attracted me:

? "I am lucky to have three lives, and I deeply love it. The spring breeze is not as good as yours. I am waiting for you at the Pear Blossom Festival! "

? With the flow of people enjoying flowers, I came to the courtyard of Gewan Village Committee. Under the background of "Love is here, youth has an appointment", the youth networking activity of "Meeting Lovers among Flowers" jointly organized by Jincheng Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League was held here.

? In the courtyard of about 300 square meters, young men and women from all over the world are smiling and eager to see lovers who are about to become beautiful here.

? Dong Shengwei, the host of Jincheng TV Station, and Yue, two handsome men and beautiful women, hosted this ingenious networking activity with their loud and standard Mandarin.

? Ms. Yue told me that the people who attended the meeting at the scene were only a small part of the more than 3,000 people declared online, and the rest could not come for various reasons.

? In the compound, young men and women form two big circles, with young men in the periphery and young women in the inner circle. Each blind date wears a sign on his chest with only one number on it, and no one knows the other person's name and address.

After the exchange began, the man stayed where he was and the young woman moved her seat. The communication time for each pair of men and women is 3 minutes. Three minutes later, the woman walked to the next man.

? Man 0356 came by bus from Gaoping early in the morning. He is a tall man with a square face and strong arms. He seems to be a very honest young man. He is engaged in forestry management, working in the mountains all the year round and having limited contact with people. So he is nearly 30 years old and hasn't found a suitable girlfriend yet. Today's date, he talked several times in a row, but he was indifferent. When he saw the woman with the number 1 1 14, they looked at each other for a while and suddenly pulled the chair closer, lowering their voices. ......

? 1 1 14 is a rural primary school teacher. She is still single because she is busy teaching.

? It's 3 minutes, and when the host announced "changing places",114 didn't seem to hear it, and his body moved, but his eyes still stayed on the slightly shy cheek of 0356. It was not until the third person arrived that the two men took out their mobile phones and left their contact information. This may be "love at first sight".

? No.3567 woman lives in the countryside and works in the city all the year round. With her embroidery and knitting skills, her annual income exceeds 654.38 million yuan. Blind date, she is looking for a lover, no matter what job, no matter what family conditions, as long as like-minded. ......

? Of course, among these men and women, there is also a mood: blind date in the flower sea, in the bustling pear garden, although not married, can not be together for a lifetime, but we can not miss this rare and beautiful encounter. ......

? Near 12, the host led everyone to sing the song "Meeting", and the young men and women present were in a state of revelry. ......

? "I think, I wait, I look forward to, but the future can't be arranged.

? On a cloudy day, in the evening, there is a future person waiting outside the window.

? Look left, right and forward. How many turns does love take?

? What kind of conversation will there be when I meet someone, and how far is the person I am waiting for in the future? ......

? I met you as the most beautiful accident, and one day my mystery will be solved ... "?

? Looking at this lively youth association, I can't be calm for a long time. ......

? With the development of the times, the post-80s and post-90s youth are entering a critical period of their lives. However, some older young people, known as "leftover men and women", failed to enter the marriage hall smoothly for one reason or another, which brought down the happiness index of life and brought heavy pressure to parents and families. ......

? Whenever he or she walks in the street, he or she sees other couples holding hands and smiling sweetly. It's still a family of three. Young parents protect their children on both sides, holding their children's hands. When the children jump, the faces of the whole family are filled with happy smiles ..... Under such circumstances and scenes, how can single people not feel lost in their situation?

Thanks to the Jincheng Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League and the Municipal Women's Federation, and thanks to the party committee and government of Nanling Town who are willing to be matchmakers, this once-in-a-lifetime magpie bridge has been set up to build a communication platform for single young men and women, so that a couple of lovers can meet here, find their other half, and then enjoy a good time in the bright streets under the bright moonlight.

Appreciate flowers in pear garden

The pear garden in the west of Gewan Village was expanded on the basis of the Foxconn New Youguo Demonstration Park invested by Taiwanese businessman Mr. Guo Taiming. In the pear orchard of hundreds of acres, pear blossoms from tree to tree are crowded in clusters, elegant and transparent, bright and beautiful. There are many small yellow flowers on the ground, and the pear trees are mixed with colorful peach blossoms, cherry blossoms and apricot flowers, which are blooming one after another. It can really be said: "Pear blossoms are full of snow, and all kinds of red and purple compete for Fang Fei."

? Wandering in Gewan Pear Garden, strolling among pear blossoms, looking at the pear blossoms as snow, facing the fragrant spring breeze, I can't help but think of the lost years. ......

In the mid-1950s, Master Chen from Gepo Village in Nanling came to our village with several young people to help graft pear trees. Master Chen is a fruit tree technician trained by the county government. In addition to grafting local fruit trees, he also went to surrounding towns to help promote high-quality fruit tree varieties and improve grafted old tree varieties. Master Chen led several people in our village to graft the original Dulu pear tree into rhubarb pear tree in a field not far from my home. I also play with adults.

? Master Chen sawed off half of Dulu pear tree with hacksaw, then sawed an inch or two on the stump, sharpened the stems of tender pear branches and inserted new buds, then tied the stump and tender pear teeth tightly with hemp rope, and then wrapped the joint with soil and mud, only showing a little tender teeth. "Three peaches, three apricots and four pears for five years". In a few years, the grafted pear trees will bear Huang Chengcheng Dahuang pear. Rhubarb pear is sweet in taste, thick in skin and resistant to storage. By next spring, the whole house will smell of pears.

? In the 1990s, when I was working in Lizhai Middle School, one day, after being introduced by the village leaders, I took the technicians from the school forest farm to Nanling to buy back more than 1000 seedlings of Dangshan crisp pear, and asked the forestry technicians in Nanling Township to help teach the students the cultivation and grafting techniques of Dangshan crisp pear. ......

? "It goes without saying that peaches and plums go their separate ways." The fruitful results contain the concern and support of the Party and the people's government for the people in the old liberated areas, and condense the painstaking efforts of people in mountainous areas from generation to generation. Today, Nanling and Lizhai are a family, and they will go hand in hand on the journey of realizing the "Chinese Dream" of great rejuvenation.

? Suddenly, a familiar song in front of me interrupted my train of thought: "Sun Ye came up with a shot high, and Cui E remembered something. The waist of Beishan is sour and sweet, which makes me feel sour ... "

? Isn't this what I often heard when I was a child? I hurried over to find two women in their sixties singing "Peiyong Yangko".

At this time, I found that "Peking Opera and Henan Opera" were hung on the fences on both sides of the 100-meter-long path from the gate house of "Liyuan", as well as stills of famous dramas and classic plays of Shangdang Bangzi.

According to "Book of Rites and Music in the New Tang Dynasty", "Xuanzong knew temperament and loved music, so he chose 300 children of geisha in the left to teach in the pear garden ..." The original pear garden refers to the place where Xuanzong trained musicians in the Tang Dynasty, and later people called the troupe "pear garden". Now the designers of Gewan Pear Garden have become attached to opera, which is really creative!

Peiyong Yangko originated in the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, belonging to a dry-board opera, which only played the clapper board without orchestral strings. The play is short and pithy, and it is very popular with the audience. After hundreds of years, it has been passed down from generation to generation. There used to be a saying: "every village is full of yangko and drama, and everyone will hum a few words." Sing on the stage at night and sing to the ground during the day. " Nowadays, singing in the countryside and entering the city has become a beautiful business card for rural revitalization.

Wangtou Village is the birthplace of Shangdang Bangzi. There used to be a beautiful saying that "there are three plays in a row, and there is no need to ask for gifts from other places". The village still retains the only "Kaiyuan Palace" dedicated to Li Longji, the ancestor of Liyuan. The phrase "Qiu, Luo, Li Zhai and Wang Chengtou are either singing operas or scratching their heads" succinctly expresses the opera culture of Nanling Town. Liyuan Villa named after Liyuan, Shi Sheng Liyuan Shangdang Bangzi Art Troupe, and Liyuan Children's Exhibition Team ... What is more telling is that Liyuan has been passed down from generation to generation, and there are successors.

? Seeing this, I understand that the design of "taking flowers as the medium, mountains as the medium, paving the way for tourism, setting up a stage for culture and singing opera for economy and trade" by the county and town party committees and governments is ambitious!

The wheel of history is rolling forward. Laopei's foot yangko and old Shangdang Bangzi are just traditional plays sung by the people in the old liberated areas according to an old script for hundreds of years. Now, the Party Committee and government of Xinnanling Town are planning a modern drama with the theme of "Clear water and green mountains are priceless" and the content of transformation and development:

On the stage with 5,000 square kilometers of land, under the correct leadership of the town party Committee and government, the people of the town will comprehensively develop characteristic agriculture and aquaculture and provide cheap agricultural and sideline products for the market; The tourism industry has developed in an all-round way, with the natural scenery tour as the main line, the traditional ancient village tour as the main line of Gewan, Suanjiao and Duanhe, the red commemorative tour as the main line of Tuling, Gan Tang and Huangsha, and the agricultural special products publicity month as the main line of Gewan Pear Blossom Festival and traditional cultural festival. Mountains and rivers and fields complement each other, and tradition and modernity complement each other.

It can be predicted that on the grand blueprint for the development of Nanling Town, nearly 30,000 people in the old liberated areas will board Zezhou, Jincheng and even the national stage with brand-new ideas and heroic momentum, and present a heavy gift to the CPC Central Committee, the people of the whole country and the centenary of the founding of the Party!
