Excuse me, where is the restaurant? Where is Xinghua Village in Xinghua Village?

Many people think that Xinghua Village in Fenyang, Shanxi Province is a "real" apricot village. They said that this Xinghua Village is located in the north of Fenyang County, Shanxi Province, and is famous for producing Fenyang wine. Scholars and poets of all ages have left many poems and songs here, praising the beauty of their wine, and Du Mu's poem Qingming is the first among the monuments, which of course shows that the identity of this Xinghua Village is beyond doubt.

However, after textual research, someone raised two questions:

1. According to Du Mu Chronicle, Du Mu has never been to Shanxi in his life. How can he drink in Fenyang?

Second, it never rains in Fenyang Tomb-Sweeping Day, and sometimes it snows. How can it be "rainy in Qingming Festival"?

Both questions are to the point. It seems that Xinghua Village in Fenyang, Shanxi Province is not a "real" apricot village.

Xinghua Village, Guichi County, Anhui Province

Some people think that Xinghua Village in Guichi County, Anhui Province is a "real" Xinghua Village. They said that this apricot blossom village is located in the southwest of Guichi County, and it was also famous for making wine in ancient times. Du Mu was an official in Guichi for two years, during which he loved drinking and outing, which is recorded. The poem Qingming has also been included in the chronicle of Xinghua Village in Guichi County. All these indicate that this is what Du Mushi called Xinghua Village.

The above reasons seem to be sufficient, but after textual research, some people have also raised two questions:

1. When Tomb-Sweeping Day was written, Du Mu had been in office for half a year. He drinks heavily. He doesn't know where Xinghua Village is going. How can he ask the shepherd boy for directions?

Second, since he is an official and drinks with his own servants, why did Du Mu buy it himself?

It can be inferred that the Xinghua Village here is not "real".

Xinghua Village, Yixing City, Jiangsu Province

Some people think that Xinghua Village in Yixing, Jiangsu Province is the real "Xinghua Village". Their view is that Du Mu lived in Huzhou after resigning in his later years. Du Mu was a little depressed at this time, so he often went to Yixing, a neighboring county, to relieve boredom, lived in Shilibei, Yixing, and built a waterside pavilion there. According to local records, there is a village near Shilibei, surrounded by apricot trees. Obviously, this is the Xinghua Village written by Du Mu.

Unfortunately, this statement was finally denied: after research, there is no "restaurant" here and there has never been a history of brewing. The scene written in Qingming has nothing to do with this.

Several "Xinghua Village" have been rejected. Some people say that Du Mu's "Xinghua Village" is actually a general term with no substantive content. "Sikuquanshu Xinghua Village Records" also said: "Du Mu is the guardian of Chiyang, and the Qingming Day poem has' Where is the restaurant? The shepherd boy pointed to the sentence' Xinghua Village', and the word to cover the scenery must be set in a village, and then that sentence fell behind! "

However, most people think that the apricot blossom village in the poem Qingming does exist, but it is too old to distinguish its authenticity.

The mystery of Xinghua Village in Du Mu's poem Qingming seems to be difficult to solve for a while.
