A trip to Fuyuan

(Friday, February 1, 2013)

In the middle of the night of January 25, 2013, my husband, brother-in-law and sister and I took the "Harbin East - Fuyuan" train to Fuyuan to attend our nephew's wedding. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

My husband and I sit on a hard sleeper, both on the top bunk, and it was really hard for us in our sixties to climb up to the bunk, while my brother-in-law sat on a hard bed.

The next morning, about past Qianqian Town, through the car window, I looked out of the car and saw that the field was covered with heavy snow, and the dead grass on the snow was swaying in the wind.

In the distant and nearby woods, only the pine trees are covered with green leaves, and the rest of the trees are bare.

The trees were dense and thin, not tall but neat, as if straightened with a thread.

In the distance, mountains loom in the distance, with a pale blue horizon.

In the white expanse of the earth, there was occasionally a small house, and there was a small house that was actually inhabited, and the chimney emitted gray smoke.

I'm wondering, what is this little house far away from the world for?

At 9:57, the train arrived at Fuyuan County on time.

This train, originally only to Qianjin Town, began to extend to Fuyuan County on December 18, 2012, and since then, to Fuyuan, there are not only ships, cars, but also trains.

The railway station of Fuyuan County is newly built, located in the suburbs far away from the county seat, a lonely big house, light gray, and there are three bright red characters of "Fuyuan Station" in the center. The roof has a semi-circular shape.

Directly in front of Fuyuan Station is a road that is not too wide, leading to the county seat.

On the left and right sides of the road are birch forests, densely turned, tall, but thin trees.

Standing at the intersection and looking ahead, it is a winding road, and it is uneven.

At this time, the wind was blowing very tightly, and it had just snowed, and the temperature was very low, and the cold was pressing.

After taking a car for more than 20 minutes, I arrived at the county seat.

On both sides of the street, there are also many buildings, and various shops are one after another.

Finally, I came to my nephew's new house.

New house, 5th floor, 76 square meters.

As soon as I entered, there was the living room, which was about the same size as my living room. To the north is a sofa with a large photo of the couple hanging on the wall. On the south wall, there is a 42-inch large color TV, which is playing the wedding photos of the newlyweds, which is very stylish and beautiful.

To the south of the living room is the bathroom.

To the east of the living room is the bedroom, kitchen, dining room, and the refrigerator with double doors is placed on the west side of the dining room.

On the west side of the living room is the bedroom, where the couple lived.

The whole new house, with reasonable layout, is warm and pleasant.

After looking at the new house, I went to the wedding venue - Jin Fuyuan Hotel.

Jin Fuyuan Hotel is very large, with a wedding hall on the left and a banquet table on the right.

The banquet table was full of guests.

The customs and habits of this place in Fuyuan are very individual, whether it is a red thing or a white thing, the table is not pulled for two days, and the dumplings are eaten in the morning on the day of the wedding.

That's interesting, in the morning, at five o'clock, it's still dark in winter, and I start making dumplings.

There is a table surrounded by seven people who come to roll the skin, and there is one person who is in charge of delivering the skin to the person who makes the dumplings.

There are four tables full of people making dumplings.

When the day dawns, it's even more lively, this side of the bun, cooked inside, eaten outside, it's really unique.

It is said that the table will not be pulled for two days, but in fact it will not be pulled for three days, and Zhang Luo is mainly the bride's parents because they are locals.

On the 27th, a grand wedding ceremony was held at the Jinfuyuan Hotel.

The master of ceremonies is a young man in his thirties, wearing a black tuxedo, a small flat head, and a very temperamental.

Before the ceremony officially began, the bride's friend sang "Good Luck Coming" to congratulate, her voice was high-pitched, loud, and she sang very rhyme.

After she finished singing, three eleven or twelve-year-old girls danced.

The three little girls, wearing flowered hats, short skirts, and glasses, danced gracefully, and many people stood up behind them to watch, and some people used mobile phones to record the video.

After the three girls danced, the master of ceremonies presided over and distributed a 500 yuan lottery ticket.

Next, it's time to give gifts.

The first gift was a toy mouse. However, this little mouse is not small, it is two feet long.

There is only one gift, to whom?

The master of ceremonies ordered: Whoever runs to the master of ceremonies first will be given to whomever he wants.

After a while, many people were eager to try, and as a result, a girl on the west side succeeded.

The second gift is a giant panda, which is also two feet long.

Who will this gift go to?

Haha, the condition is: the bride announces her mobile phone number, and then, whoever first calls the bride through the mobile phone is the owner of the gift.

I sat in the front, and when I looked back, many people were holding their phones, and even the groom's uncle next to me was eager to try, but as a result, a girl on the right took it away!

The appearance of these two gifts is very ingenious and interesting.

The following program is: Look at the big TV screen on the right side of the rostrum.

The bride used to be a junior high school teacher, and although she didn't teach for a long time, she had a lot of feelings with the students.

On the big screen, the students who had been taught by the bride gathered in the classroom, first a few students congratulated one by one, and later, all the students shouted in unison: "I wish Teacher Wang Yuan a happy wedding!" "We miss you!"

This show is not only fresh and chic, but also timeless.

Then, the master of ceremonies said, "We welcome the bride and groom with warm applause!"

Amid thunderous applause, the bride and groom entered.

The groom wears a black gown with a white shirt and a bow around his neck.

The bride wears a white wedding dress.

The two newlyweds walked slowly hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder, on the blue-glowing glass path on the ground, and in front of them was a pair of golden boys and girls carrying flower baskets, throwing colorful scraps of paper with their small white hands. The long skirt behind the bride is supported by a male and female bridesmaid.

"Wedding March" is playing.

This scene is truly spectacular and romantic.

After the bride and groom appear, it is the parents of both of them who make their appearance.

The groom's mother (whose father died), she was dressed in a fashionable red velvet coat, white necklace, black pants, brown high boots, she waved her hands and greeted the audience, delicate and pleasant.

The bride's parents, the father is dressed in a black suit, the mother is in a bun at the back of her head, a red tweed cardigan, black pants, and black high boots, this old couple is also wonderful.

At 11:18, the master of ceremonies announced loudly: "Mr. Yin Shi, Miss Wang Yuan's wedding and romantic ceremony has officially begun!"

The music was played high, and the applause was thunderous.

The iron cylinder hanging above the wedding table suddenly erupted yellow and bright flames, forming golden and bright columns, which was really beautiful and magnificent, pleasing to the eye.

It's exciting, it's exciting!

The master of ceremonies looked at the bridegroom and asked, "Mr. Yin Shi, are you willing to marry this beautiful, generous, gentle, and virtuous Miss Wang Yuan?"

Wow, this is a Western-style church wedding style!

The master of ceremonies asked the bride a similar question.

A couple of newcomers, with a smile on their faces, all replied loudly: "I do!"

The audience immediately burst into cheers and thunderous applause.

I really noticed that the bride and groom were smiling all the time, this was their big day, they were willing to love each other, and their hearts were happy!

.............

The whole wedding ceremony is both novel and chic, both traditional and innovative.

To be honest, if it weren't for my nephew settling down in Fuyuan and holding a wedding, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to come to Fuyuan for a visit in my life!

Fuyuan, located in the easternmost part of Heilongjiang Province and the easternmost part of China, is opposite Russia.

It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, and this water is Heilongjiang.

I didn't go out of my way to observe the whole picture of Fuyuan, the entire Fuyuan City seems to be in the lowest place, and the city is also uneven.

The buildings on both sides of the street, one next to the other, have Russian characters on them, and some of them have a Russian flavor.

When the weather is warm, from May to October, Russians come here to trade. Of course, people here also go to trade on the Russian side.

I also saw a "big trade market" dedicated to trade, but it was closed during the cold winter months.

The air in Fuyuan is very good, fresh and pleasant, and very clean, some people say that it can be compared with Dalian.

Fuyuan's specialty is fish, and salmon is the first to be here.

Walking on the street, you can see the side of the road piled up fish, there are many varieties, more than two feet high "crucian carp market" is inserted upside down on the ground, slim and elegant, this is a fish I have never seen, and what kind of pike, crucian carp, carp and so on.

Although fish is a specialty of Fuyuan, its price is very expensive and expensive, just like Dalian, although it produces seafood, but the price is very expensive.

Fuyuan is not only expensive for fish, but also for other items, for example, its dried tofu costs five yuan a catty, while my house has four yuan a catty. Fuyuan's eggs are five yuan a catty, and my family has four yuan and eighty-one catties.

On the first two nights of our return, we went to the local famous fish restaurant "Yiliga" for dinner, and spent 700 yuan on six dishes and one soup, including 180 yuan for a rabbit fish.

It is said that there are no fake fish in this fish restaurant, all river fish, the goods are genuine, not fake and real, therefore, the fish restaurant is prosperous and enduring.

Fuyuan County also has a history of many years, and it existed when the Japanese devils ruled.

As for the year and month when Fuyuan was founded, I didn't investigate.

The groom's maternal grandfather, my brother and sister's father, Dai Xiang, worked here for ten years, in the sixties and seventies of the twentieth century, and it was a special period.

At that time, Dai Xiang was a grassroots cadre, he was criticized and fought, his wife was forced to commit suicide, and the remnants of vomiting after drinking the medicine were eaten by his young son, who is still in his forties and has a low IQ.

Dai Xiang said that at that time, he came to Fuyuan to work for a short time, and some people summarized several major monsters in Fuyuan: the draft is sacked, the car is not as fast as the dog climbs the plow, and the woman works faster than the man, crutches, bending over, and shedding tears on his head.

Dai Xiang is seventy-seven years old, and although he is in his old age, he is strong in spirit and can speak well. At the banquet table, he talked eloquently, and his little grandson said, "Grandpa, you are commenting on books again." ”

When everyone in the room heard this, they all laughed.

Dai Xiang wore the commemorative medal of the agricultural reclamation on his chest, I think the old man is very funny, but when he thinks about it, he revisited the old place, how can he forget the ups and downs in the eventful years of that year, how can he not cherish the aftertaste? Moreover, he was the first person to introduce ships and automobiles to Fuyuan?

At the banquet table, I met a poet from Fuyuan, he was the bride's uncle, he was sixty-seven years old, his name was Wang Shudong.

At the wine table, the poet recited a poem he had written for the newlyweds: "Wang Yuan is delicate and cool, creating a romantic poem of youth." The colorful phoenix is in the sky and has wings, and they are infatuated with each other. He also wrote a Tibetan poem for Dai Xiang "Dai Xiang Gao Shou", but unfortunately I didn't remember a word.

The poet said that the Northern Press had published two of his poetry collections, and that his third poetry collection had been taken out of manuscript.

At the banquet table, there was another person who was very interesting, he was in his forties, with small eyes, a small nose, a small mouth, and even more strangely, his teeth, as small as a teething child, this was the first time in my life that I saw an adult with the teeth of a young child.

This person probably drank too much, he ran to our table several times, toasted, talked, he said: "My mother is ninety-three years old, and let me find her a partner, and I want to find someone older than her, my mother, where can I find it?"

His words made people laugh, but they couldn't laugh out, so they had to hold back their laughter, which made people feel so uncomfortable.

Sometimes, I followed my younger sibling and her local relatives to the streets to a big supermarket called "Home Tesco".

This supermarket is huge, with a wide range of items and a wide variety of items.

Its special feature is that if you carry a pocket on your back, the waiter will use a special cloth pocket made by the supermarket to put your pocket in, seal it, and then open it and return your pocket when you have finished shopping.

I walked in Fuyuan Street, but I didn't see the bus stop, relatives said that there is no bus stop here, they are all "beckoning to stop", get on the bus anytime and anywhere, get off anytime and anywhere, according to your wishes, it is a five-yuan fare.

Fuyuan, which is indeed very small, stood and looked around, and saw the head at a glance, and even saw the mountains in the distance outside the city.

At 3 p.m. on January 31, we took the train to the railway station in Fuyuan, ready to take the K7066 train "Fuyuan-Harbin East" at 4 o'clock to go home.

Walking into the waiting room of Fuyuan station, it is sparsely populated, with few rows of chairs and few passengers.

However, at this small departure station, tickets are quite difficult to buy.

When I got on the train, I noticed that the height of the platform was the same as the iron steps under the door of the train.

The train started slowly, gradually moving away from Fuyuan County and rushing towards my homeland.
