From Jingdezhen to Wuyuan, the national highway goes down to the village. White walls, black tiles, red persimmons, yellow apricots, rice ears, buffaloes, stone bridges, mountains, and green waters form a beautiful picture of southern Anhui.
Suddenly I felt that I should take a break, so I sat in front of the long table of this B&B. I accidentally opened a book "Rural Talk". It seems that the owner of the B&B wrote some stories about the relationship with this old house. The writing is good.
It turns out that this B&B was rebuilt from a house with a history of more than 180 years between the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There is a plaque of "Seven Leaves of Fortune" bestowed by Emperor Daoguang. Dongping and Xijing are quaint and the site selection also follows the principle of "pillowing on mountains, surrounded by water, and painting screens". Seven leaves represent seven generations. The seven generations living here have lived to be over 90 years old, blooming and spreading leaves, multiplying and peaceful. I think this house is blessed by some luck.
Many students are painting and sketching beside Tongji Bridge at the entrance of the village. The strokes are full of the charm of Huizhou architecture. There is an old maple tree by the river not far from the ancient house. There are groups of butterflies, and villagers are still washing clothes by the stream... Next to the wooden bench bridge is the ridge of the field with the fragrance of rice. The rice ears are ripe and golden and drooping.
Is there a little fear of time, the years are peaceful🌾
The leaves are falling, and the chubby dog is waiting for me at the door of the house. The store owner prepared one non-spicy meat and two vegetables at my request, and brought a pot of homemade osmanthus rice wine, so let's drink it🍻
