The nostalgic hut in the depths of the old alley next to Chunxi Road has accumulated the warmth of generations.

The old lane in Chengdu, lying in the twilight of the morning, was suddenly awakened by several dogs barking and a whisper in the depths. Sandwiched between Chunxi Road and the Second Hospital of the City, it meanders to the bustling streets, but it is a world of its own.

Mottled walls, continuous broken tiles, empty birdcages on the roof, each holding the old feelings, have become eternal in the ever-changing city, carefully feeding the daily fireworks and becoming beautiful in the shape of order.

Along the long lane and following Zhou Xuan's gentle tone, I found a log cabin with years of accumulation. Time is its curtain, and it is an old dream for people to open it.

Climbing the steep iron ladder, the fairy hut stood quietly in the early morning sun, and the wisteria by the window was full of rich autumn fruits.

Cong told us that every season here has a different scene. In early summer, the leaves are lush, but in winter, they wither and slump, which is another scene.

In this small world of seven or eight square meters, there are many years of memories.

Domestic cameras such as Oriental, Seagull, Phoenix and Qingdao Flash are displayed on the cabinet. The tapes and DVDs of the 1970s and 1980s are still circulating in tape recorders and DVDs. Photo albums, graduation memorabilia, comic books and video periodicals have serialized the feelings of generations.

In the 1980s, old-fashioned desk lamps, clocks, fans, telephones, leather boxes and tea sets were common. In the 1990s, video games and military chess aroused the fun of childhood.

Open the tin pencil box used as a child, with addition and subtraction multiplication tables and lovely stickers on the back. The old photos cut by Kodak photography gradually turn yellow on windy days.

The old things in the cabin were put aside at will, not wanting to show the uniformity of the grocery store. There is no profit, no selling old things, no concept of guests. Coming to a cabin is like coming to a friend's house, where we can open our hearts and talk intimately.

Two years ago, a group of like-minded friends formed a small house with the original intention of preserving old things and looking for the voice of the times. Low-key and bearded acquaintance, * * * tried to build a hut in their hearts.

Obsessed with low-key folk bands, she likes old plays and events in MV. She named this place "Fairy House" according to the lyrics of Cuiping Sewing House Band.

Beard, deeply influenced by his uncle's nostalgia, likes the expression of movies and songs in the past. They are ups and downs, just as emotional as teacher China teaches students to read aloud, but now the mood of dialogue between people has degenerated. He hopes that the hut can take some emotional routes and create a field with a sense of the times through it.

"In the cabin, time passes slowly." A Cong, who is lively and friendly, likes the slow life here. For her, the happiest thing is to make many interesting friends through the cabin.

The imaginary hut must be warm and comfortable. They traveled all over the old streets of Chengdu and finally found the ideal place.

The small single room hidden above the attic happens to be a gentle and intimate wooden structure, surrounded by windows. The sun shines into the room and prunes countless branches and leaves of wisteria, just like sitting under the blue sky.

"At that time, I still felt that this hut was too big, and now it is just right." Beard smiled and said, "If this cabin is too big, the things behind it will be far away from us. Because it is small, it feels very warm and intimate. "

Because "small", there can only accommodate seven or eight people here, and seven or eight people just create the warmth of home, because "small" has narrowed our distance.

The hut is hard-won, and all the memories are filled up bit by bit through painstaking efforts. Low-key bearded people look around for old things, and two people carry heavy old cupboards upstairs, with steep and dangerous ladders hanging in the air. Neither of them dared to relax, and the process was long and arduous.

They seldom go to the second-hand market to find old things of unknown origin, hoping that everything has its own story and origin like their own.

Most of the objects in the collection are for your own use, left by yourself, and some are given by friends and carefully preserved. Maybe decades later, friends will feel deeply when they see that their things are still here.

They don't want to collect things as decorations and pure nostalgia to fill the hut, but to collect things that can continue to be used in life. Radio, video camera and record player can be used now. The hut is alive and has a life temperature.

A log cabin is like a home left over from the last century, with many ordinary and warm days. Because of this simple and real simplicity, it is easy to gather friends in the hut. Tired from work, seven or eight people sit together, drink tea, chat at home, share stories and legends of old Chengdu, truly integrate into daily life and feel the content of the old days.

Listening to old songs in a cabin full of retro temperament has a different feeling. The operation of fingertip keys brings a strong sensory experience. Zhou Xuan's Nights on the Beach and Full Moon Flowers exist in ancient and modern times, while the 265,438+0 century's Deep Rain and Little Girl under the Street Lamp brought people into a nostalgic situation, and Teresa Teng's tenderness is still in my ears.

There is a movie here once a week. Movies are shown to you by old TV sets in an unconventional way. Most of them are China movies, and most of them are old movies from 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, which can be traced back to 1930s and 40s.

Cong made tea for everyone, and after chatting, he entered the state of watching movies together. The plot of old movies is not as tortuous and complicated as that of contemporary movies. Its narrative is simple, and each frame is a picture of life, from which we can deeply feel the living environment and emotional experience of an era.

Beard said: "Sometimes watching movies, sitting on the beach drinking tea, opening the window of the hut, the breeze blows, as if sitting on the beach." ? There is a "freeze-frame" effect here, which is to reproduce the old scene and make people remember it forever. Opening a nostalgic cinema in a log cabin seems to be full of sporadic years, and there are so many old movies that I don't know when I can enjoy them.

The 1980s and 1990s are in a transitional period, which is an era of accelerated modernization and rapid elimination.

In the past, old Chengdu was laid back, with tea shops all over the streets. People drink tea and play mahjong and live a luxurious life. Now that the city is re-planned and demolished, some old streets and lanes are gradually disappearing from people's vision, and the way of speaking of old Chengdu people is gradually submerged in the changes of the times.

The hut wants to carefully preserve those things that have been eliminated by time, collect information and images about old Chengdu, and continue the lifestyle of old Chengdu.

It hides in the old alley, keeps quiet in the noise, cultivates a slow mind, and reaches a tacit understanding with the leisurely tone of old Chengdu. Cats and dogs strolled lazily in the old alley, several vertical and horizontal hangers hung with yesterday's innocence, and the fragrance of the kitchen was close to people's hearts.

They chat at home after dinner, listen to music, watch movies and don't ask about current events. Time is connected in a line in trivial daily life, only those trivial little days that chatter endlessly.

In the second half of each year, the hut will also hold outdoor activities and go hiking in unknown towns in the suburbs of Chengdu.

Stroll around the alleys, climb mountains, catch up with the past at the head of the township dam, learn about local ballads and books, truly integrate into local life, feel the rich local customs and humanistic atmosphere, and inherit Chengdu folk culture in this form.

"Before, we went to the town south of Shuangliu and took a group photo in an old clock. At that time, we were not low-key, so it was very interesting to put low-key photos of our childhood on P. " Beard looked at the photo in the photo frame and smiled. Finally, the hut has the present appearance in the form of accumulation.

The wooden house is a concentrated point where people look for the truth in the old days and the times in the real memories.

After the baptism of time, these beautiful old things have been endowed with deep feelings. They once existed and became the epitome of an era, which is worth cherishing and remembering.

They should not only stay in the memory of most people, but also be revived in life, not living in the dimension of the past, but going deep into the present, so that people can be compensated in the subsequent emotions.

I have been to the cabin, maybe I can hear the sigh.

"This is a song that my father has heard. I really want to hear it again. This is the tea I drank when I grew a beard. I really want another drink. "
