Going to Zhongxiang was an accident. Dida's son wanted to be the first, and wanted to go to his classmate's house to congratulate him, so he decided to drive to Zhongxiang and then fly to Wuhan. As soon as we arrived at Zhongxiang, he took us directly to Mingxianling Tourist Center, put us down and bought us tickets. To tell the truth, I'm a stranger to Zhong Xiang. I didn't know that some of my brother's classmates were Zhong Xiang until about 30 years ago. The four of us walked into the scenic spot in the scorching sun and walked into Mochou Village in a daze. There is no doubt that in such a place close to home, I first discovered places like Fenghuang Ancient Town and Wuzhen. Every house has its own characteristics. According to this feature, there are different businesses and businesses everywhere. In the small village, everything is available, including hot pot in Chongqing, noodles with minced meat in Shaanxi … all kinds of food and drink. Such a place can meet the needs of the four of us at the same time. We almost fell in love with Mochou Village at first sight.
Walking, Amy suddenly pointed to a house and said, Yu Xiuhua Studio! Look up, really, on the lintel, "Yu Xiuhua Studio" is not conspicuous, but it is there. I don't see anyone. Beautiful curtains are hung on the door, with a blue-green background and a strong sense of design. Anyway, I liked it at first sight. The only window was covered by a poster. Compared with other places, this house is particularly deserted, and few people pay attention to the tourists coming and going.
It suddenly occurred to me that Yu Xiuhua, a Hubei poetess, was born in Zhongxiang. She was called Emily Dickinson of China. It turns out that she is very close to me. Yu Xiu Hua Gang was born with cerebral palsy due to abortion and lack of oxygen, which made her unable to move. Farmers, cerebral palsy and poverty are all related to poetry, which is popular because of it. In this rickety world, a rickety woman!
I took some photos here and then walked on. Amy reminded me, why don't we go in and have a look? So, I returned, walked to the door of the studio, gently pushed open the curtain, only to find that it was not a light curtain. The curtain is too thick for me to push. What I see in blue-green is not cloth, but painting. I can't see anything at all, but I can still vaguely hear some voices, as if I were decorating. What medicine does she sell in the gourd? What are you going to do here? I don't know.
Yu Xiuhua, whose reputation is abroad, is a controversial figure. About Yu Xiuhua, not long ago, many people in our liberal arts and writers' associations were discussing her. Everyone has his own opinion on her poems. I don't know much about them and dare not discuss them rashly. I don't know much about Yu Xiuhua himself, and I don't agree with some of your views. "Yu Xiuhua has her own world, which has nothing to do with the situation and status. She is such a pure poet. " The themes of Yu Xiuhua's poems are mostly about love, affection and feelings of life, as well as her disability and closed village. Baidu Li said: The pain and deformity of life have become the source of her creation. A woman, a woman from the countryside, a woman with cerebral palsy, humble but not humble, can persist in her dreams, can persist in writing in difficulties, and can set off quite a storm in poetry and even in society. Her life moved me more than her poems.
Looking forward to the official operation of her studio, Zhongxiang Mochou Village has more than Xiuhua's studio.
Mochou village is not an ancient village. Mochou Village is full of antique buildings and small village, but this small village is antique and full of charm, with mountains and water, blue tiles and white walls. Mochou Village was originally the hometown of Mo Chounv, a famous song and dance artist of Chu State. For thousands of years, Mochou Lake and Mochou Village have always been good places for literati to pay their respects and visit.
After coming out of Mochou Village, we walked a short distance and arrived at the Ming Tombs. It turns out that Zhongxiang's cultural tourism resources are unique, holding two world-class business cards: "the hometown of longevity in the world" and "the world cultural heritage of Ming Xianling".
Ming Xian Mausoleum was built in 47 years. It is the burial tomb of Emperor Zhu Shiyuan, the father of Emperor Jiajing of Ming Shizong, and Empress Cixiao, the mother. Jiajing's father was not an emperor, but was honored as the emperor by his son after his death, so the Ming Tomb was transformed from the tomb. It is the only tomb in the Ming Dynasty in the six central and southern provinces of China, covering an area of 183438+03 hectares. It is the largest single tomb in the Ming Dynasty. Its planning layout and architectural technology are unique, which plays a connecting role in the ruling system of the Ming Tombs, especially the mausoleum structure of "One Mausoleum and Two Mausoleums" is unique among the tombs of emperors in past dynasties.
I went to the Ming Tombs in Beijing twenty-one years ago, but now I have no deep impression. I only know that the Ming Tombs are the real imperial tombs. Thirteen of the sixteen emperors of the Ming Dynasty were buried there, and the mausoleum of Emperor Jiajing was one of them. The mausoleum of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is the Xiaoling Mausoleum in Nanjing. Unfortunately, when I was in Nanjing, I only went to Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and didn't know much about Xiaoling Mausoleum. Emperor Jiajing's Ming Dynasty Yongling Mausoleum was exquisite in materials and broad in regulations. The completion of Yongling Mountain cost the national treasury a lot of money. To this end, Sejong had to adopt the opinions of ministers and help the palace bell by accepting the example of silver.
At this moment, standing in the Ming Mausoleum and looking at its majestic momentum, you will know how long it took to build, and it must have cost a lot of financial and material resources! Jiajing's filial piety is touching, which is why the Ming Tombs are now in front of us. Only in this way, the pain is sweet.
I forgot what the Ming Tombs looked like. I feel that the Ming Tombs are more standardized than the Ming Tombs, and the cultural relics inside are now better preserved! As the only mausoleum of the Ming Emperor in central and southern China, the Ming Tombs meander like a dragon on the Jianghan Plain, and the feng shui pattern is amazing! Entering from Waimingtang, various animals and civil servants will be separated on both sides of Shinto. It is said that the Ming Mausoleum was "burned" by Li Zicheng at the end of Ming Dynasty, and was destroyed by the Japanese invaders during the Anti-Japanese War. Part of the ground building was seriously damaged. A stone road in the middle is full of potholes and historical vicissitudes. The mausoleum in front of me is real, without excessive repair. There is desolation in the ruins, and there is once glory and richness. Two connected graves, lush, century-old trees. There are not many fairy tourists, it's very quiet! The person named Zhu Can actually visits for free with his ID card, hehe. Away from the hustle and bustle, the Xianling Mausoleum is particularly quiet, and history and culture are hidden in it. I immediately sent a WeChat, recommending my husband to take time to visit Xianling Mausoleum one day and have a close look at history.
On the expressway from Zhongxiang to Wuhan, eldest brother told us that a little Zhongxiang, a dozen children were admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University in the college entrance examination this year! Dida's children got 658 points in the college entrance examination this year. Parents and children are obviously dissatisfied, because the child is the seed player in Chongqing North. A small county-level city, why are there so many children who study well? Why are there poets in the red poetry world? I think it may be inseparable from the rich cultural heritage of this place. Just like Gongan County, which is close to Songzi, children are also proud of reading, and have made some impressive achievements in the college entrance examination in previous years. Capsule fireflies reflect snow, and the police are three yuan, which is where the police are.
On the way back from Yunnan, we stopped in Qianjiang for a few hours by mistake, and we were sent to Cao Yu Memorial Hall by our eldest brother. I visited the memorial hall alone, met and looked up to Mr. Cao Yu, and my heart was full of admiration for him. Mr. Wang was born in Qianjiang, but he has never been to Qianjiang and was buried in Qianjiang after his death. It is also a fallen leaf! In his illness, Mr. Wang once wrote: For many years, I was like a person who had no hometown. I have been to many places, and there is no place that makes me feel that this is my hometown and my country. I am like a bird flying from south to north, with mountains, mountains and plains ... People ask me, "Where are you?" I replied: "Qianjiang". The people of Qianjiang welcomed Mr. Cao Yu back to his hometown with the highest etiquette. The park in Qianjiang is named after Mr. Cao, and a memorial hall has been specially built for people to visit for free.
The mind and mind of Qianjiang people are amazing, and the cultural heritage should be a city's business card and a city's pride. Also a county-level city, several neighbors set an example for us.
In the ancient and beautiful Lijiang, the former residence of Fang Guoyu, a famous Naxi cultural figure, is well preserved and free for people to visit. On the second floor of the former residence, there is a hole in the sky, filled with desks, where many children practice calligraphy. Tourists coming and going have no influence on them. They are very dedicated and serious, and have a profound knowledge of calligraphy. Compared with my students who practice calligraphy every day, it is obviously not at the same level. The influence and inheritance of culture, active acquisition and passive acceptance should be the most fundamental reasons.
When visiting Naxi Wang Fu shogunate, visitors will find that Wanjuan Tower is the most special, and it is taller than other buildings. There are four words "Yuxiang" on the couplet of Wanjuanlou, and these words are also written on a memorial archway next to Lijiang shogunate like running water. Many people understand these words separately, but no one understands them together. It turns out that "it's raining" is the homonym of "going to school" in Naxi language. These four words just reflect the Naxi people's spiritual wisdom of respecting knowledge. King Naxi also advocated reading, hoping that his descendants would become scholars first.
I hope my hometown, Songzi, can be excavated and accumulated more, so that the city's cultural heritage is thicker and more abundant. We hope that Songzi's children, like those in neighboring counties and Lijiang, advocate reading and culture, and "rain and dew will last forever". This is our hope.
