Composition: the beauty of hometown

I sometimes chat with my friends on MSN and say that as a northerner ... my friends are surprised to ask, are you a northerner? It won't be from the northeast, will it? My friend laughed when I said I was from Fuyang, Anhui Province, which is in the northwest of Anhui Province. For them as far away as Beijing, the south of the Yellow River is the south. I call myself a northerner, which is a bit boastful.

But in my mind, Fuyang is a very northern city, and it is getting more and more northern.

Food: it's messy and rich.

The beauty of Fuyang snacks lies in the richness of this chaos. Even simple snacks have many levels of flavor.

Southerners eat rice and northerners eat noodles. Strict choice of words is inevitably biased, but it is basically no problem to say that this is a general trend. The food in Fuyang is mostly pasta. When I was a child, I liked to go to the grain store. I don't like white rice noodles, but I like to see the spectacular fried dumplings there. The golden plates piled up like a mountain, and the oil overflowed. Now when I see the word "rotten rice", I will think of that scene unreasonably.

Later, I learned that Zanzi was invented by ethnic brothers and is still the protagonist in Eid al-Fitr cuisine. Its popularity in Fuyang is probably related to this multi-ethnic city. Many foods in Fuyang have an exotic flavor that seems to be found only in the northwest. When I was a child, I visited the night market with my parents, and I often saw a "pure religion" wooden sign hanging on the snack bar. Later,' re gradually disappeared, which made people feel melancholy. A few years ago, when I went to Kaifeng, I saw such a wooden sign at the food stall. Just like when I was a child, I was ecstatic to see my old friend again.

Although brands are rarely displayed, most foods in Fuyang are rough and rich made by non-Han people. For example, granola, a noodle-like, rounder and thicker pasta rolled by a machine, is always unknown to outsiders, but when I miss the taste of my hometown, what I remember most is this low-key and simple granola.

Only when all kinds of ingredients and ingredients are matched can the style of Grate be reflected. The main ingredients are Chili oil and sesame sauce. Spicy Chili oil and sesame sauce, mixed together, are fragrant and spicy, and complement each other. There is no certain regularity in ingredients, which can also determine the success or failure of a grappa store. Usually, it belongs to the genus bean sprouts. If you pay attention, it will add a lot of unexpected things. I often go to a small town, but it seems normal to say that there are more broken flowers. However, the strength and taste of the vine itself, the crispness of beans and bean sprouts are relatively soft, but the fragrance and hardness of peanuts are just right. Because it is finely divided, don't steal the limelight. Chewing all the above together is a kind of richness, and the beauty of the world lies between the lips and teeth. At least at that moment, I was satisfied with my life.

The beauty of Fuyang snacks lies in the richness of this chaos. Even simple snacks have many levels of flavor. Sesame paste is active in all kinds of snacks because of its special flavor presentation ability. Eating cold rice noodles in Hefei often feels weak. It is because of the lack of sesame sauce, Chili oil and soy sauce vinegar, which can not form a sticky feeling between you and me.

Fuyang always deliberately wants to do the simplest, not the simplest. When I was studying, the eight-treasure porridge sold at the school gate was only a few cents a bowl, but there were dozens of raw materials such as lotus root starch, sesame seeds, wheat kernels, raisins, dried tangerines and roses. The woman selling eight-treasure porridge patiently took the eight-treasure porridge out of the bottles and jars in front of her and put it in a small porcelain bowl. Then, the hot water in the long-billed copper pot is slowly mixed in, and the lotus root starch becomes translucent and colorful.

Generally speaking, cities are becoming less and less stylized. I went back to Fuyang in the past two years and saw that its northern characteristics are getting stronger and stronger. My friend took me to Wang Fu Road to eat snacks. It turned out to be sheep's head and hoof, cooked in an iron pot, steaming hot. If you want to eat, you can have it now. Although I didn't dare to ask, in the cold weather, sitting in a shop blackened by lampblack, watching the people coming and going on the road outside, and the stage of singing Henan Opera in Qinghe Square in the distance, for a time, I felt a palpitation in the distance. Yes, living in a foreign country, when we are far away from home, living in a foreign land and being looked back again and again, our hometown will become another place worth tasting.

Beauty: a strong daughter

Among the Fuyang women I know, there are many daughters who can toss and turn.

Speaking of food, it's the beauty's turn. Once upon a time, I was as confident about the beauty of Fuyang as I was about the food of Fuyang. I thought personally, I had seen the most beautiful woman in Fuyang. Later our director helped me popularize the knowledge of statistics. Because I spent the longest time in this city, I met the most beautiful woman in Fuyang. If I can divide the number by time accurately, I will find that this is not the case.

But in any case, walking on the streets of Fuyang, you will never feel lonely. Perhaps it is close to the Huaihe River, and refugees from both sides of the strait come and go. The advantage of the combination of North and South lies in its appearance. Generally speaking, girls in Fuyang have good skin and regular facial features. On the other hand, Fuyang is a small city, but it is very particular about clothes. Six months ago, the planner of the publishing company signed a deal with me in Fuyang. When I looked up, I was very surprised to see a specialty store. According to him, this kind of specialty store can only be seen in Beijing and only in relatively high-end shopping malls. I think of one thing when I write here. There are always people who criticize me for being sloppy after I get married and have children, and it is getting worse and worse. In fact, my image index is low, which may have nothing to do with my family life. More likely, the longer I leave Fuyang, the less and less influence it has on me.

In any case, women in Fuyang are not much more special than women in other places, except for their personal feelings. Personally, I think women in my hometown are better than people. Of course, there are people with various personalities everywhere. I'm talking about my personal experience, or a group that stands out in my sight.

In Fuyang, there are many gentle, humble and thrifty women like my mother, perhaps most of them. But, you know, people like my mother have nothing to write about. Their colors are too light and their lives are too straightforward. I have been interested in something completely different from my mother since I was a child. How can I describe them? Let's use what people say about my fellow villager Cao Cao: a capable minister who manages the world and a lean man in troubled times.

This kind of women is characterized by outstanding appearance and intelligence. If they meet nice people, they are definitely excellent housewives who can get out of the kitchen under the hall and play well, big and small. However, because they have some excellent qualities, they have more expectations for life. If people are unlucky, the sentence "marry a chicken and follow a dog, marry a dog and follow a dog" is simply absurd truth to them. They will never go with the flow and be at the mercy of fate. That kind of struggle is reflected in the eyes of others and becomes two words, called "tossing".

Among the Fuyang women I know, there are many women who can toss and turn, and they are endless. They must gather all their energy and see all their dreams shine. They generally don't want to be trapped in a small town, and their goal is always far away. While doing business, they often leave many topics for others. Do you know Pan Wei? Not long ago, he frequently made headlines in entertainment news. I didn't remember until I saw the photo. Isn't this the Fuyang beauty who often takes photos with my brother Daewoo? Let's not discuss her feelings here for the time being. Just look at the media reports. She loves golf, is good at cooking, likes cleaning the house, and often keeps a book beside her bed. That enterprising spirit shows the true nature of Fuyang women.

Beautiful scenery: Yousiling Garden

This garden of Youjia was built by a commander named You. This commander You has some relatives in my house. Maybe they can play with me.

Now, it's time to talk about the beautiful scenery. Although I really want to show off the beauty of our hometown, I really want to do a good job in Baidu, and then use my good words to make those data and nouns beautiful, but a writer's conscience prevents me from doing so. On second thought, I have to admit that my hometown is not a place famous for its scenery.

I remember when I was in primary school, my teacher took us for a spring outing. The first year was Qingying Park, the second year was Kuixing Building-we called it a three-story building, the third year was Wenchang Pavilion-we called it a seven-story building, and the third year we went to Yingzhou West Lake-these are very staple foods. Local literati may be able to carefully collect history and compile a gorgeous article, but in

When I returned to primary school, it was already the fourth year. There is nowhere else to go in the local area. After careful consideration, the teacher decided to take us to Yingshang County, a nearby county, where I was born, for a long trip and visit Youjia Garden there.

Yingshang county belonged to Fuyang area at that time, and now Fuyang city. I think it's not too far-fetched to write the scenery there in my article. This is a land of plenty, near the Huaihe River, with flowing water. My father also wrote a poem about it. I forgot the specific sentence. In short, it is more meaningful than Fuyang city.

Yingshang County today is like a tourist attraction, Xiaozhangzhuang and Bali River. In the tourist season, major newspapers will publish advertisements, but these were built later. In my distant childhood, when it comes to playing in yingshang, Youjia Garden is the first choice.

Youjia Garden is a few kilometers west of Yingshang County, with lush foliage and vegetation. I didn't know what was good about it when I was a child. I just saw many rare plants and collected some rare fruits. This is also a lovely gift for friends.

Later, I heard from my grandmother that the garden of the Youjia family was built by a commander named Beiyang. The commander of the Youjia family has some relatives with my family, and maybe he can play with me. I am very proud to hear this news. I asked my grandmother to be more specific, but she couldn't explain it clearly, because she was a relative of my grandfather's side. Asked my grandfather, he said, it doesn't matter at all, but it does matter. When Commander You worked in Yingshang County Public Security Bureau, as a prisoner in custody, he often helped them send flowers and plants.

According to my grandfather, after liberation, You Xuanyin, the governor of seven counties in western Henan, was arrested and sentenced for various reasons. Fortunately, however, he has a son who has taken a different road from him and holds an important position in the Ministry of Water Resources or somewhere. So he doesn't have to suffer from detention, pruning flowers and plants in the yard of the public security bureau.

Commander You is a bit like Qiu Weng, who loves flowers like life. It seems that before liberation, he had retired from the army and left the life of a military horse behind him. Only the flowers and plants in that garden are his life. Because of this, the change of the situation did not make him feel much pain. He is very comfortable in the courtyard of the public security bureau, guarding the flowers and plants wholeheartedly, as if he had found a place where his soul is safe.

My grandfather also grows flowers in the office, but he doesn't care. Sometimes he goes to the countryside to do a case and doesn't come back for ten and a half months, and the delicate flowers and plants are half dead. My grandfather gave them to Commander You and asked him to save his life. Every time he goes, Commander You says angrily, Where do you grow flowers? It will be bad luck to follow you.

When listening to grandpa's report, I thought, after all, Commander You was still guilty at that time, and he dared to talk to my police officer like this. Apart from his son, it is probably because of his love for flowers and plants that he can't leave it alone.

I asked my grandfather, Commander You, what he looked like. He said he was a little old man, but he looked clean and energetic. So I saw a very clean and energetic little old man in that huge garden, looking at his little flowers and plants, with distant eyes and deep love.

Why did such a man join the army? What made him lay down his weapon and pick up a flower hoe? There should be a special story behind it. Maybe one day, I can understand the ins and outs of this story and write it down.

More importantly, Yingshang, as the background of this story, left me a complete impression of the county besides the natural scenery. In my early years, I walked down the street with my grandmother, greeted an acquaintance in three steps, and communicated with my parents.

There are always colliding stone roads in narrow alleys, and what makes me feel more meaningful and poetic is those mornings in the county. Under the steps of the department store, there is an old farmer squatting there selling things, or a few green onions, or a wisp of tobacco leaves. It only costs a few cents to sell them all. Such a small business reminds me now that they are not selling things, but loneliness.
