After the ferry, it is a peach forest, which makes people can't help but think of the description in "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring": "Suddenly there is a peach blossom forest, hundreds of steps between the shore, there are no miscellaneous trees in it, it is fragrant and delicious, and the falling flowers are colorful." ā
As soon as you walk into the peach forest, there will be a burst of fragrance to your nose, from time to time there are a few crisp and melodious birdsong in your ears, when you want to look for it, your eyes are full of gorgeous flowers, some bees have come early, are working hard, and colorful butterflies, flapping their wings, dancing, it seems quiet and fresh, which makes people feel refreshed.
There are five or six hundred peach trees in this forest from the ferry to the foot of Ma'anshan, among which there are many peach trees that are tens or hundreds of years old, these peach trees are not from that family, but planted by the ancestors, and have been left from generation to generation.
Because it is mostly some peach trees, the taste is not good, except that the children in the village will make trouble in the ripe season, no one cares, and naturally there is no economic output, someone has mentioned that the yƬ village committee will cut down these peach trees and plant some fruit trees with higher economic value, but everyone opposes them, thinking that these peach trees are more than a few decades old, which is simply the best advertisement for tourism promotion in Taoyuan Village.
The ancestors of the Ye family migrated here at the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, and this is naturally not the "Peach Blossom Spring" described by Tao Yuanming, the ancestors planted peach trees all over the place, perhaps to place good wishes, hoping that this pure land will not be disturbed by the troubled times, and that future generations will be able to multiply and live peacefully.
Han Yueying came here during the National Day holiday last year, so she naturally knew that there was a peach grove here, but she didn't expect that when these peach trees competed to open, it would be so beautiful!
This peach grove is not neatly planted. The ground is lush with grass and every tree has not been pruned by hand. The branches stretch out to their heart's content, in a variety of forms, but there is a touch of wildness.
There is a winding path in the middle of the peach forest, Han Yueying has to stop after walking a few steps, taking pictures with a camera from time to time, and asking Ye Quan to take photos of her and Yaya from time to time.
Ye Quan smiled: "You like peach blossoms so much, come back in half a month, when all the peach blossoms are in full bloom." The scenery is even more beautiful, and it is also the most beautiful time in Taoyuan Village. ā
Han Yueying listened to it and said with a little regret: "It's a pity that school has already started at that time." ā
Passing through the peach grove, the fields are planted with cabbage, radishes, and other vegetables, and in this season, the radishes are almost old, and all of them have grown flower stems.
Yaya jumped into a field by the side of the road. casually folded a few thick flower stems, then tore off one of them and handed it to Han Yueying: "Sister Yueying, you taste it, this is a radish stalk." ā
Han Yueying tasted it, it was a little crisp and delicious. It's not delicious, it's just a taste, at least most of the people in the city haven't seen it, Ye Quan didn't have any snacks when he was a child, but he ate a lot.
Many households in Taoyuan Village raise pigs. Therefore, a lot of radishes were planted, and when the radishes bloomed. White, yellow, and red, from a distance, the field looks like a sea of flowers, and it is another scenery.
I could see the courtyard of Ye Quan's house, Ugly and ugly flapped her wings and flew away, and after a while, the tiger girl ran over from the door of the house, as fast as a bolt of lightning, Ye Ting also came out, standing under the camphor tree at the gate of the courtyard, beckoning to them, obviously receiving the news.
Han Yueying was a little nervous in her heart, and unconsciously slowed down, although she had been to Taoyuan Village last time, and she lived in Ye Quan's house, but the meaning was different, this time it was the daughter-in-law to see her in-laws, the first time in her life.
Before Han Yueying came, her parents also specially told her what to be polite, generous and decent, diligent in her hands and feet, etc., a lot of precautions, she was nervous in her heart, and naturally she couldn't relax.
Fortunately, Han Yueying spent a day with Ye Mingchang and his wife in Jiangning, and knew that both of them were approachable and kind people, so she finally had the bottom of her mind.
Ye Ting saw Han Yueying for the first time, but her joking "sister-in-law" made Han Yueying's face red.
When she arrived in the courtyard, Cao Shuyun came up and asked for warmth, she was very satisfied with Han Yueying, how could she be a little difficult? I can't wait to bring out all the good stuff.

Since Han Yueying last came to Taoyuan Village, only five months have passed, the appearance of the village has changed greatly, the bridge at the head of the village has been almost completed, the dirt road has become a cement road and a gravel road, the sun-dried valley has become a new square, guardrails have been added next to the ditch, some houses have been repaired, and some rural characteristics have been added.
Riding all the way over, Han Yueying didn't feel tired, and after following Ye Quan to visit Ye Mingcheng's house, she wanted to go out for a walk.
Ye Quan said: "It's not too early, let's go to the sandbank." ā
When passing through the reed pond, Ye Quan and the two met more than a dozen outsiders, all of whom were holding valuable cameras and binoculars, some of them had set up tripods and were using telephoto lenses, and some were writing and scratching in their notebooks while observing from a distance.
Han Yueying looked at it for a while, and asked a little puzzled, "Are they bird watching?" ā
Ye Quan said with a smile: "Yes, early spring is the best season for bird watching, and now Taoyuan Village has a certain reputation in the circle of bird watching enthusiasts, as long as the weather is good, people come here to watch birds almost every day." ā
The reed pond from the sandbar to the top is a reed pond of hundreds of acres, the water quality is clear, the food is sufficient, in recent years, because of the propaganda of the Nature Reserve Administration, the villagers have rarely caught birds, especially for the rare wild birds, consciously protected.
This makes this small wetland flock of birds, including geese, Chinese mergansers, water pigeons, great egrets, yellow-billed egrets, black storks, mandarin ducks, blue-breasted pheasants, copper-winged pheasants, kingfishers, sparrows, little white-fronted geese and other more than 10 species of birds.
In fact, not only in the reeds, but also on both sides of the Pingjiang River and in the mountains and forests near Taoyuan Village, there are many birds inhabiting and breeding, which is a good place for bird watching.
Han Yueying saw that among the reeds not far away, a bird flew up or down from time to time, and couldn't help but think, so she simply didn't go to the sandbank, and said, "Let's go and have a look." ā
Ye Quan said: "Then wait, I'll go back and get a telescope and a camera, I need to have special tools for bird watching." ā
Ye Quan went back to the house to get two binoculars and cameras, and Han Yueying prepared to find a suitable location.
When a middle-aged man in his forties saw Ye Quan, he stopped what he was doing, looked at Han Yueying a few times, and greeted him with a smile: "Ye Quan, your girlfriend is here?" ā
Ye Quan introduced: "This is Mr. Yao, an old member of the Yue'an Bird Watching Association. ā
Han Yueying nodded and said, "Hello Teacher Yao, my name is Han Yueying." ā
Yao Runfei has been to Taoyuan Village twice, and each time he came, he stayed at Ye Mingcheng's house for one or two nights, and over time, he and Ye Quan also knew each other.
Seeing that the two of them were also watching birds, Yao Runfei came over and explained some common sense of bird watching, Ye Quan was a little funny when he saw it on the side, this vice president Yao is a middle school teacher and an avid bird watching enthusiast, as long as he sees others interested in bird watching, he will be "a good teacher" and instill a belly of "bird classics" in people.
