No one can resist the charm of peony.
I am infatuated with peony in my hometown, which is a heavy gift I received after visiting Xu Ling village in Jin Meng.
Just after a long summer, I just saw peony in the downtown area. I still want to see more flowers when I go back to my hometown, some flowers in the country, different flowers. The peasant woman who stood at the east end of the village early said with a smile, you are not too late. It would be better if it were earlier. Here, the mountains are green, the clouds are green, thousands of acres of peony flowers bloom, bees and butterflies dance, and tourists are happy. I don't believe you!
I walked east along the neat cement road, smelling the fragrance and exploring the secluded place. Sometimes I catch a glimpse of stone mills and old wells, and sometimes I see dung-sucking cars and tractors. There stands a quaint wooden door, with the four-character signboard of "Hundred Herbs Valley" on the lintel. The font is vigorous, and the eye-catching "shaoyaoju" arrow points to the northeast, much like the proud peasant mother and daughter, welcoming the guests with a smile in the breeze. No access control, no tickets, free to come and go. If you come, you are the owner here. I'm surprised and happy.
Xu Ling Village (formerly known as Sujialing, named after Queen Ji Bo once stayed here) belongs to Chengguan Town, located about 6 miles northeast of Jin Meng District, located in Mangshan Hill, surrounded by valleys, with ten years and nine droughts. Crops are mainly wheat, corn, sweet potatoes and peanuts, and their lives are relatively poor. In recent years, the village cadres have helped the poor, flourishing, leading geese, and cadres have twisted into a rope, which has made the village look brand-new, the village style harmonious, the industry breakthrough and the economic recovery. Among them, the striking White Grass Valley came into being, which is also the base of the Chinese herbal medicine project in this town. It used to be an unknown barren slope in the east of the village. There are many wild vegetables and flowers, with flowers in three seasons and green in four seasons. It is a good place to stay away from the noise and let go of your mood. Nowadays, with the help of rural revitalization and project development, the village has planted pieces of Gleditsia sinensis and interplanted peony and other medicinal materials, which are distributed in a terrace. The interest of shaoyaoju's nickname originated from a beautiful scene in Baicao Valley.
I walked slowly along the forest path, stood tall, looked up at the blue sky overhead, looked around the distant mountains and green waters, and looked down at the peony in full bloom at my feet. In the poor ravines that nobody cared about in the past, many people enjoyed flowers like a flood.
Shuttling through the patchwork sea of flowers is like reading a beautiful prose poem. Every line, every sentence, every word, every punctuation is dipped in flowers. Everyone can feel the beauty of birds and flowers, the refreshing mountain breeze, the peony blushes and thrives, trying to show the most beautiful side to tourists. It's really beautiful. How does the lens capture the curiosity and highlights of downstream people? Peony flower, this magical flower of love, makes people deeply moved and intoxicated. We look around in the flowers, linger in the flowers, wander in the sea of flowers and fly quietly.
Some old couples walk slowly, hiding in the flowers, fondling the branches to smell the flowers, studying them carefully, whispering, peony and peony are sister flowers, which really deserves to be called flower phase; Some middle-aged men and women, in no hurry, crouched down to pick up the scattered residual flowers, gently blew away the dust, carefully held them in their hands and stared intently; Some young lovers jump fast, chase bees and tease butterflies, wipe residual petals on their faces, and don't forget to take selfies for fun; I don't know where the students come from. They are the most naive and romantic. They freely dive into the sea of flowers and read peony poems passionately. I am very touched and shocked. ...
Yes, the peony here is amazing, suffocating and fascinating, which can be compared with the peony written by celebrities: Han Yu's "magnificent fragrance has never been seen before, with red light flashing and green cages shining." How much does it weigh in Asgard? Pan Xian's "flattery and cheating on peaches and plums" won and continued the leading edge phoenix. Every spring, it's the same everywhere. " . Tasting every flower, touching every leaf, peeping at every root, smelling every handful of soil, smelling every wisp of fragrance, seems to be immersed in Tang poetry and Song poetry, comfortable, natural, gentle and quiet. Where can I appreciate the beauty and mystery of "leisurely seeing Nanshan"? Just looking at the peony, it still tastes a little bit.
Looking back, you can still see the Qiao family courtyard in the north of the village. In the courtyard, there are ancient pagodas for shading, red stone and blue bricks, carved dragons and phoenixes, and ridged beasts. After the transformation, the quadrangle is still intact, still showing the architectural style of the Qing Dynasty, bearing the kindness and virtue of the Qiao family in promoting medical skills to help the poor and save the people and benefit the neighborhood.
Don't forget that the cultural square in the village is also worth visiting. "If you want to find a branch, it's hard to find party member", a big stage with complete leisure and fitness facilities, rain or shine, and a clean and tidy activity venue. Super Brain (Village Committee 3) stands by, much like the exuberant stamens of Paeonia lactiflora, the valley of white grass, shaoyaoju, rapeseed oil, beautiful village appearance and sweet life, all of which are colorful petals derived from it. Here, the national flag, party flag, party emblem and villagers are all here.
Before I left, I stopped to look back affectionately, and the couplets read "Outline of Li Shizhen Watering Grass" and "Sun Simiao Visiting Xulingxian Village". It seems to be the most extraordinary and the easiest and most difficult to achieve. Please firmly believe that the ancient medical sage and drug king will travel through time and space and enjoy the great glory of the revitalization of Xuling in the new era together!
