Lian Po is old, and when traveling, one needs to know and obey the old. The trip to Siming Mountain, we avoided drifting, which was a move to seek good luck and avoid bad luck.
-------------------------
The two-day trip to Siming Mountain from August 4th to August 5th was accidental. On July 25th, I met Qian Jun near Pudong Yaohan, intending to sign a contract with a well-known travel agency in Shanghai. As a result, the prosperous stores in those days are now empty. Disappointed, he drank tea at Starbucks and dialed the phone number of the store manager of a Chase Journey store while drinking tea. So, after having a delicious meal at the "Grandma's House" on the eighth floor of China Resources Times Square, I went straight to Datong on Tibet Road. The program was dazzling and charming, and Siming Mountain was finally selected.
On the morning of August 4th, come to the pick-up location - Liuhe Road (Niuzhuang intersection). Accident! The buses of various travel agencies are parked here, and they will be sent to various scenic spots in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Shandong. I used to only know that the museum in People's Square and the Workers' Cultural Palace are the distribution centers of various travel agencies in Shanghai.



After meeting Qian Jun, according to the license plate number given by the tour guide, I went around twice, but still couldn't find it. I only found it after calling the tour guide. It's summer vacation, and many parents bring their children.


Siming Mountain two-day tour, buy one get one free, the tour fee for two people is only 438 yuan. Most of the group members came to "Beidou Bay Rafting".


Overnight, I entered "Beidou Bay Rafting" on Baidu, and the photos are as follows:





The drifting place is no different from a mountain ditch. After reading the following text from the tourists (not a single word has been changed), it is even more exciting to visit.


-- I didn't bring a change of clothes before I went, and I regretted it in the end. Basically, the first time I bend down, my whole body will be wet.


-- The whole person is like sitting in the water.


-- Tickets are 160 per person, which is a bit expensive. But with the group should be cheaper.


-- It's best not to bring anything, or you will really regret it. My friend's earphones and my small bag are all scrapped! ! !


-- In the end, it was simply equivalent to lying in the water...but the water was very dirty!


At this age, how can you be interested in such drifting?


Soon after getting on the bus, the tour guide began to charge for rafting, 100 oceans per person.


-- I checked on the Internet, the situation is not good, so let's not participate. (I said to Qian Jun)


-- OK, listen to you, don't go rafting anymore. (Qian Jun is considerate, even if he brought swimming trunks, he readily agreed)


-- The rafting I long for is to sit on a bamboo raft with picturesque scenery on both sides of the river, and take pictures while watching the scenery on the bamboo raft. (After listening to me relay the comments of online tourists, Qian Jun said again)


-- Just like what was sung in the previous "Sparkling Red Star" -- small bamboo rafts in the middle of the river, walking on both sides of the majestic green mountains. The eagle spreads its wings and flies, even in the storm... (I say)


-- Yes indeed.


-- Bamboo rafting in Wuyi Mountain is a bit like this.


The following photos were taken on August 19, 2008 (during the Beijing Olympic Games) while rafting on a bamboo raft on the Jiuqu River in Wuyi Mountain.





In addition, I told Mr. Qian that I traveled to Bali Island in February 2006 and participated in a well-known local rafting activity on February 14, which left a deep impression on me. After one hour of rafting, the kayaks capsized three times, and all adults and children fell into the water. Fortunately, each kayak has a "boss", or "helmsman", who is at the helm and rescued, and there are surprises every time. No risk, or risk without injury!


It's not a small ditch in the mountains, it's not muddy water, it's a real close contact with nature, it's a rare experience in life.


Please see the photos of drifting in Bali six years ago.







All the group members went rafting, put on life jackets, and rushed away.


How will Mr. Qian and I spend these two hours?


The two wandered around, sometimes on the avenue, and sometimes on the rice fields.


Along the way, blue sky and white clouds, undulating mountains, lush forests and bamboos, streams and reservoirs, we were intoxicated by it. More than two hours of driving took us to such a mountainous place!


Qian Jun's family lives on Beijing Road. He has a famous saying: "Street corner garden can also let me sit for half a day... . . .


I live in Liu'an, and I exercise with my wife in Liu'an every day. Liu'an and Di Caibang are parallel. I don't know how many times I have posted photos of Liu'an and Di Caibang on my blog. Spring, summer, autumn and winter, cloudy, sunny, rainy and snowy. ... A fan told me that I have never been to Liu'an, but I am already familiar with the plants and trees there!


Loving nature - this is the "commonness" between Mr. Qian and me.


-- What kind of flower is this?


-- Lagerstroemia indica. (Qian Jun answered)


-- what is this?


-- Yam.


-- What is this?


-- Isn't this Cigu?


-- No, this is taro!


-- Hahaha.


Mr. Qian and I walk the avenue and step on the rice paddies. One question and one answer, enjoying a different kind of fun.


Not far away, I saw a reservoir with vast water surface. Facing the reservoir, there is a farmhouse with an open gate and crape myrtle flowers blooming outside the gate. There is also a large-character signboard of "Zixi Farmhouse" on the white wall.

















Walk into "Zixi Farmhouse".


We have just received three or four tables of lunch guests (brought by travel agencies, 400 yuan per table), and the host is busy cleaning up.


Qian Jun is a capable man. After chatting with one of them, we both became guests of "Zixi Farmhouse", and we were ushered into a small clean restaurant. The host brought two cups of homemade green tea, which tasted good, and also served a plate of Salt-baked potatoes, a local specialty, are edible with peeled potatoes and a unique flavor.



The taste of salt baked potatoes with local tea is comparable to that of Longjing [Reprinted from Qian Junzhi's blog]




Later, I found out that one of the migrant workers was from Guizhou, and Mr. Qian could speak authentic Guiyang dialect. After a few conversations, he fell in love with his hometown. So there is this courtesy.


The small restaurant is neat and clean, with green bamboos outside the window, and cool wind blowing in from the window.


The two drank tea and chatted, feeling a different kind of farmhouse joy.


At noon, because I drank a little wine, I felt drowsy in this secluded place, so I collapsed on the "bed" made up of four chairs.


-- I'll take a break. (I greet Mr. Qian)


-- Go to bed, I'll go chat with my fellow villagers. (Qian Jun knew me and used the word "sleep")


Said to take a break, hit the pillow (my satchel) with my head for a few minutes, and fell asleep. I slept so soundly. How is this "bed" different from a five-star hotel? [The following pictures and texts are transferred from Qian Junzhi's blog]


Teacher Mao will take a break to snore within a minute after drinking and eating

When I woke up, I bid farewell to "Zixi Farmhouse", paid for the tea, and went straight to the assembled bus.


-- It's better that you don't go rafting. (Just got in the car, before sitting down, a woman sitting next to me told me)


-- why? (I asked)


-- While rafting, my husband fell off the raft, and his hands and feet were scratched by the rocks.


After waiting for a long time for the bus, an old man with white hair limped onto the bus. His right arm and left leg were wrapped in white gauze and painted with purple lotion. When the group members saw it, they all clicked their tongues and expressed sympathy.


-- Fortunately, I didn't go, not only saved money, not only enjoyed the farmhouse fun I found, but if I went rafting, the rafting taste of Wuyi Mountain and Bali would be washed away! (I thought to myself)





Qian Jun is really capable.


Except for the "Zixi Farmhouse" just now, this is the second time to enjoy the self-seeking farmhouse. The first time I enjoyed Zimu Farmhouse was today's lunch.


At lunch time, the bus passed by a small town with many restaurants without stopping, but stopped at a farmhouse restaurant that "doesn't go in front of the village or back in the back".


There were nearly 50 tourists in a car, and they had no choice but to file in with the tour guide. Each person spent 30 yuan, not to mention the lack of food and the taste. Qian Jun and I are used to eating slowly, and don't really like the "purchasing" style of "wind and clouds".


The farmhouse restaurant is in a hurry. A dozen or so group members wanted to order food by themselves. However, the restaurant has no time to take care of a group of "individual guests".


So, the group members of the big family took out the prepared bread and started to eat the bread for lunch.


-- Let's go to the farmhouse opposite. (Qian Jun waved his hand)


-- Okay, let's just fill our hunger with instant noodles. (I answer)


Entering the farmhouse, I am looking around at the farmhouse.


-- Done, eat with them! (Qian Jun said)


-- what? So simple? What's going on?


Qian Jun didn't have time to answer. The two hosts, an old couple, had delivered chopsticks to us and opened a bottle of beer for us.


That's how lunch started. Unexpected.


This is real farm food, farm music.


There are several dishes on the table - steamed bacon, braised snails, fried shredded potatoes, steamed faucet roast, fried cowpea.


It's been a long time, the faucet is roasted, although it's a little salty, it's definitely "with rice".


In addition to bacon and roasted faucets, the old man went down to the lake to touch the snails, potatoes and cowpeas were grown in his own fields, and even the white rice came from his own rice fields!


The old man, shirtless, 79 years old, hale and hearty, with a voice like a bell, and the old lady is also healthy and optimistic. At such an age, I still go to work in the fields every day. I have given birth to three boys and three girls in my life, and they all live in Ningbo City. It is rare to get together.


-- As long as we are in good health and they have a good life, that's fine. (The old man believes in Jesus, and there are pictures of Jesus and religious couplets on the wall. He said cheerfully)









Walking out of the farmhouse with Qian Jun, I feel satisfied.


-- Today, when the taste of farmhouse music has changed, this lunch is pure farmhouse music!


Looking at the signboard of the "Tiantian Farmhouse" restaurant brought in by the tour guide, Qian Jun said with emotion!


-- Looking for a farmhouse without climbing Siming Mountain. (I add)
