Chapter 91 Shu Di - Sichuan Opera

Lu Zheng took a bite of the beef, and the entrance was hot and spicy, burning the tongue, but the softness and hardness were moderate, and when he took another bite, it was even more fragrant and tender, fragrant, numb, and spicy. Look at the pot again, a pot is red and bright, and it is about to rush out of the pot, and it is hot all over the country.

How can this meal be described in a cool word. Not only are the ingredients fresh here, but the spicy taste and beauty of Shuwei hot pot are vividly reflected, which makes Lu Zheng nostalgic.

In the end, they had eaten all the dishes, and the time came around two o'clock in the afternoon.

Lu Zheng slowly stood up with the support of the scumbag, there was no way, he ate too much.

Lu Zheng insisted on walking by himself for a while, and when he came out, he saw a full of houses and lush wheat seedlings not far away.

After going back and forth on a ridge for a while, you can hear the barking of dogs, the miserable cries of pigs, and the heart-rending cries of children from the nearby village......

These sounds caused the ducks and geese in the pond not far away to quack, which is a picture of an idyllic scene, and it is really picturesque of rivers and mountains.

Lu Zheng felt very interesting, and unconsciously, his stomach was not so supportive, and he waved his hand to signal the scum Hui to enter the city.

Of course, there is also an ancient town here, there are six big banyan trees in the town that are more than 1,000 years old, buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties abound, and they are well preserved so far, in addition, ancient temples, ancient water and land wharves and quaint folk customs.

Lu Zheng didn't plan to stay here today, he was going to go to Furong City before the evening.

According to historical records, the city was built around the middle of the fifth century BC. But the excavation of the Jinsha site has brought new evidence of its construction time, and its founding history dates back to 3,200 years ago.

During the Tang Dynasty, Mr. Shaolingye, that is, the poet saint, said "...... Flower heavy brocade official city. "Let the hibiscus blossom in full bloom.

That's right, this place is named after the hibiscus flower, and Han Yu has a poem:

The newly opened cold dew bushes are far redder than the water.

Bright colors are jealous of each other, and Jia Ming's puppets are the same.

There is a place here called Kuanzhai Alley, which consists of Kuan Alley, Narrow Alley and Well Alley.

The wide alley is narrow, the narrow alley is wide, and the well alley is new!

It is a Qing Dynasty block that records the vicissitudes of the history of Furong City, and its architectural style has the characteristics of both western Sichuan houses and northern courtyard houses.

Its "fishbackbone" shaped road pattern is convenient for residents to manage spontaneously, laying the foundation for the quiet and leisurely life of the residents of Furong City.

There are 48 courtyard houses here, built in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, you can see its gray bricks and tiles, door piers, tethered horse stones, window sashes, finches for hanging flower columns, etc., from the details to reproduce the life charm of the people of Furong City.

In addition to these, there is also its folk culture.

Lu Shu told Lu Zheng that before liberation, there were six classic folk customs in Furong City: visiting the fish market, repairing bamboo utensils, mending mats, repairing buckets, playing straw shoes, and valet cooking.

Visit the fish market: Furong City was once known as the "Oriental Water City", according to the "General Review" record, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were more than 20 ponds in the city, so the old Furong City people did not worry about no fish to eat.

Wild loaches and yellow eels are by no means as valuable as they are today, and most people can afford to eat them. In particular, carp and crucian carp are abundant and not uncommon.

At dawn, people inside and outside the city who make a living from fishing and shrimp flock to the fish market and shrimp market located on Nanmen Street and Huguangguan Street.

The eating habits of the people of Old Furong City seem to be heavy on pork and light on fish and shrimp, and they are good at changing tricks on pork, and the cooking of fish is relatively simple.

Bamboo repairer: Bamboo is a plant in the south, Su Dongpo left a famous saying: "It is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo." ”

Craftsmen who repair bamboo utensils usually carry bundles of bamboo, strips and tools in all directions, so that they do not have to worry about finding a business.

From chopsticks for eating, baskets for grocery shopping to a series of cooking utensils, tables, chairs and benches in the kitchen, bamboo poles for drying clothes, bamboo baskets for travel, and brooms for sweeping the floor, all of them are bamboo.

This shows the importance of bamboo in the lives of the people of Furong City.

Repair mat: This is the after-sales service at that time, and you have to repair the bamboo mat when it is sold.

At that time, in the summer, there were many occupations of "selling coolness", some children were specially engaged in teahouses, barber shops and other public places to shake fans for others, acting as "electric fans" for others, and some selling cool and sweet ice powder and cold water......

Repair buckets: At that time, there was no running water, so you had to use buckets to go to the well to fetch water and go to the river to fetch water.

If the barrel leaks or falls apart, it will never be used as firewood. If there is a small problem, you can fix it yourself, and if there is a big problem, let a professional cooper repair it.

Straw sandals: The cheapest shoes at that time were straw sandals. Because everyone has to wear shoes, and the lightness and comfort of straw sandals are also deeply loved by people.

Valet cooking: The thoughtfulness and meticulousness of the service industry in the old city are quite humane, the cigarettes sold in the teahouse can be sold, the bowl is broken, the knife is blunt, someone sharpens, the house is leaking, some people sell the warmth, and the hot day is cool......

There is also a convenience measure in the noodle restaurant - valet cooking. Customers bring bowls of cold rice, and the restaurant will use noodle soup to make the rice steaming hot without charging a penny. If you still have a few small dollars in your pocket, you can also come to a bowl of somen fat sausage and cook cold noodles or something.

Of course, all of this is a long time ago.

Listen, the group of children sang: "Carrots, sip sweet, see and see for the New Year".

The current people of Furong City have started to make various preparations for the New Year since the eighth day of the lunar month and purchase New Year's goods.

The most important of these is to buy new clothes and push dumplings. The glutinous rice should be soaked in cold water for three days, pushed into powder with a stone mill, and then pressed out of the flour wrapped in rice balls with a bench.

Lu Zheng didn't come here today mainly to listen to the opera, Sichuan Opera.

One of the opera arts in southwest China, it is a traditional opera that integrates five kinds of vocal arts: Gaojiao, Kunqu Opera, Huqin (i.e., Pihuang), Danju (i.e., Bangzi) and Shuxi folk lantern opera, and is the first batch of intangible cultural heritage.

It was formed during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty and was mainly popular in the Han areas of the four provinces and cities in the southwest.

Sichuan opera has distinctive characteristics, with a high tone and amazing face-changing skills that are different from other dramas, and it is well known for this.

The language of Sichuan Opera is lively, humorous, full of distinctive local colors, rich life atmosphere and a wide mass base. There are hundreds of repertoire commonly found on the stage, singing, doing, reading, and playing, with humorous witty words, instrumental music, and unique face-changing, fire-breathing, and water sleeves......

The script has high literary value, the performance is real and delicate, humorous and witty, and the atmosphere of life is rich, which is loved by the masses.

Some actors have also created a lot of stunts, such as lifting, opening eyes, changing faces, drilling fire rings, hiding knives, etc., and are good at using stunts to create characters, which is breathtaking.
