29, Fenghuang Ancient Town

Li Wei naturally agreed. After asking Luo Yuan, Li Wei found out that she did not work in South China County, but that her ancestral home was in South China. Their family all lived in Qinxi City. There was a grandfather who lived in the countryside of South China and never wanted to go to the city.

She will come back to see him after a while.

The house when she met Li Wei that day was originally bought by her father for her grandfather to live in. As a result, her grandfather did not live in it, so it remained empty. She would only stay there for a few days when she returned to South China.

This time, she had a week's annual leave to take, so she came to South China again. She had gone back to her hometown to visit her grandfather a few days ago. She didn't know how to spend the remaining two days, but she happened to meet Li Wei and wanted to let him go.

Be his guide and go to the most interesting places in South China for two days.

"You have found the right person. Brother Wei is very familiar with various tourist attractions in South China."

Fang Xinran was very happy when she heard that Li Wei didn't have a girlfriend yet. She also felt strange that she was already thirty years old this year, but she was seven or eight years older than this guy? Did she still want to have something happen with him?

She couldn't help but think of the majestic thing she saw when she gave him a bath last night. Suddenly her eyes warmed and her heart beat, and her body reacted. This had not happened in several years. What was wrong with her?

Luo Yuan happily discussed with Li Wei where to go, and finally Fang Xinran suggested that they go to Fenghuang Ancient Village to enjoy the scenery of the village with Miao characteristics during the day and the ethnic dance at night.

Finally, Luo Yuan said: "Sister Fang, if you have nothing to do these days, can you come too?"

Fang Xinran looked at Li Wei and said, "Okay, I'm fine these days." "Okay, let's set off now." Luo Yuan said excitedly.

"But, I'm still wearing high heels." Fang Xinran hesitated again. She naturally saw that Luo Yuan liked Li Wei very much. Would she become a lightbulb if she went?

Luo Yuan found a pair of her sneakers, and Fang Xinran wore them. The size was just right. She thought to herself, she didn't expect Luo Yuan to be so tall, but her feet were so small. This might have been arranged by God, so she went there. She vaguely felt that

During these two days of travel, something would definitely happen between her and Li Wei, and she was a little scared, but also a little hopeful.

Li Wei called County Magistrate Liu to ask for leave, and told Yang Wujun that if something happened, he would help him. Yang Wujun knew that Li Wei had been working very hard these days, so he naturally agreed readily.

Fang Xinran also called Director Bai to ask for leave, and then called her home to say something. When Fang Xinran called, she did not avoid them. Li Wei heard that Fang Xinran's voice was a little cold when she called her husband.

Her husband's reaction was also very cold. He only said that he understood and hung up the phone without asking where she was going. Li Wei guessed that there was probably something wrong with their relationship.

Luo Yuan came back this time with a Nissan, which came in handy. The three of them drove to the supermarket to buy the things they needed for the journey, and then Li Wei drove off.

Fenghuang Ancient Town is only 140 kilometers away from the county seat of South China. Li Wei drove for two hours and came to the foot of a big mountain. Fang Xinran said: "We will get there just after climbing over this mountain."

The car wound its way up the road and climbed over a mountain ridge, but it was full of greenery and the entire valley was covered with bamboo forests. After driving down for more than ten minutes, the car only heard the roar of water, and a silver-ribbed river appeared in front of us.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Luo Yuan shouted excitedly. She asked Li Wei to stop the car, and the three of them walked through a patch of bamboo and came to the river. The river was about five or six feet wide. The water was clear to the bottom, and there were all kinds of fish.

The children are roaming in the water, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

The three of them got into the car and went down the river. They turned around a mountain pass and saw a village in front of them.

Fang Xinran told Li Wei and Luo Yuan that Fenghuang Ancient Town is the only Miao village in Hecheng. It is located on the Heishi River and is the main tourist area. On both sides of the river, there are stilted buildings with Miao characteristics. They were all built in the late Qing Dynasty.

The preservation is relatively complete.

Fang Xinran was familiar with this place and directed Li Wei to drive the car into a large courtyard outside the village, saying that this was the best hotel in Fenghuang Ancient Town.

The large yard was filled with various cars and medium-sized universities. It seemed that there were quite a lot of tourists. They went in and registered for two houses facing the river. Seeing that it was already lunch time, Fang Xinran said: "Let's go, I will take you there."

Eat the special snacks of the Miao people.”

The three of them walked into an old street. There were antique bamboo houses on both sides, and the stone slabs were paved under their feet. The stone slabs had been polished very smooth by the feet of pedestrians, which showed that they were very old.

There were many people wearing Miao costumes on the street. Fang Xinran said happily: "We are so lucky, we should have caught up with the Miao festival."

She approached an old man and asked, and then she found out that today was the Miao people's "Autumn Festival"

Fang Xinran said that catching up with autumn is one of the large-scale festive festivals of the Miao people. Every year on the day of "Beginning of Autumn", the Miao people stop farm work, dress in festive costumes, and come to Fenghuang Ancient Town to watch the folk performances. This day is the most popular day in Fenghuang Ancient Town.

It was a lively day, with crowds of people rubbing shoulders, figures swaying on the surrounding hillsides, flowers blooming, singing and laughing, making it very lively.

It is said that catching autumn is also called "catching the swing". A long time ago, there was a young man named Bagui Dara in the Miao village. He was upright, brave and good at shooting, and was deeply admired by everyone. One day, he went out hunting and saw an eagle coming from the mountain.

As it passed by in the air, he drew his bow and shot an arrow. One arrow hit the mountain eagle, and a flower shoe fell down at the same time. The flower shoe was extremely exquisitely embroidered, and you could tell at a glance that it was made by a smart and beautiful Miao girl.

Zhizhi Bagui Darja was determined to find the owner of this floral shoe. With the help of his fellow villagers, he designed and manufactured a windmill-shaped swing that could seat eight people at the same time, named it "Eight People Autumn".

On the day of the Beginning of Autumn, he invited men and women from villages near and far to play on the swing for fun. Playing on the swing is the favorite activity of Miao girls. Baguidajiu thought that the girl who made floral shoes would definitely come. Sure enough, Baguidajia

His wish came true. On the autumn field, he found the owner of the flower shoe - the beautiful girl Qiniang.

They established a relationship through duet singing Miao songs, became husband and wife, and lived a very happy life.

Since then, "playing on the swing" and "Miao singing" have become the two must-have programs of the "Autumn Festival". Miao girls and boys also like to find their sweethearts at the Autumn Festival.

After Fang Xinran finished speaking, she joked: "You two have to behave well today and say that you can't find your sweethearts."

Hearing what Fang Xinran said, Luo Yuan glanced at Li Wei quickly, with a hint of shyness on her face and said, "I'm not looking for Miao men. They all have white cloths wrapped around their heads. It's so strange."

Li Wei said carelessly: "I heard that Miao girls are very beautiful, so it would be good to find one as a girlfriend."

Fang Xinran said that she had been here two years ago and there was a small shop that made a very good Miao-style snack "braised chicken in bamboo tubes". I wonder if it is still there.

The three of them walked a few more steps and crossed a street. Fang Xinran said excitedly: "We're here, the storefront hasn't changed yet."

I saw a signboard of "Miao Style Snack Shop" hanging on a bamboo building at the corner of the street. They went in and sat down, and after ordering snacks, Fang Xinran introduced that the braised chicken in a bamboo tube is a piece of old yellow bamboo tube.

, leave a knot on one end, and use the open end as a "pot". When making it, first chop the washed chicken liver, gizzards and offal, and add it with mushrooms, bamboo leaf vegetables, green mint, garlic paste, grass fruit noodles, and walnut kernels.

Mix the antler and salt evenly, then stuff them all into the bamboo tube. Seal the joints with banana leaves, put the bamboo tube over the charcoal fire and bake it. When oil beads emerge from the bamboo tube, the food inside will be cooked. Use it when eating

The knife breaks open the bamboo joints, and the strange fragrance overflows. You will have a long aftertaste in the morning after eating.

After more than twenty minutes, a waiter in Miao costume brought two steaming fat bears with oily bamboo joints on the bamboo table, and skillfully broke the bamboo joints in half with a knife.

Li Wei and Luo Yuan had already been aroused by Fang Xinran. They picked up their chopsticks and started eating, shouting that it was hot, sucking and eating, shouting, "It's delicious."

After the three of them had eaten, they came to the "Autumn Field" in the west of Fenghuang Ancient Town.
