    ?

    ? On Tuesday, May 14, 2019, thunderstorms 29c/ 19c

    The next day, the crew planned to conduct in-depth publicity in the surrounding areas.  I asked the lower court, and the other party recommended to go to Zhegao Town, a thousand-year-old town.  Director Zhang Yu made a decisive decision, and all the staff set off.

    More than an hour later, the bus arrived at the famous Chaohu Ancient Town along the highway.

    Under the guidance of the locals, they parked the car at the bus station and walked towards the town. Time seemed to slow down suddenly.

    From the suburbs to the town is a high and wide soil slope, with weeds growing on both sides.  On one side of the slope, there is a flat rice field below.

    This is the season for transplanting rice seedlings. As the saying goes, "pigs in the first month, cows in May", the buffaloes in May are the hardest, and they have to plow in the fields filled with water.

    Jiang Mengmeng is a proper city girl. She has never seen such a scene before, standing on the dirt slope and stopping.  She asked Xiao Si: "Is this how your village cultivates the land?"

    In the paddy field, a big buffalo was walking steadily in the muddy water with a plow on its body.  A farmer was standing on the plow, shouting and commanding his old mate.  Seen from a distance, the buffalo is pulling him to ride the wind and waves.

    Xiao Si rubbed his head and said with a smile: "My home is in the northwest, so how can there be such a rice field? Even the cows look different. It's the first time I've seen such a big buffalo."

    Following the big soil slope, we came to a roadway made of bluestone slabs.  The bluestone slabs are large original ecological stones, which are embedded in the street after being polished.

    Between the gaps in the bluestone slabs, there are always some tenacious green plants poking out their branches and leaves.

    Some actresses wear high heels, and it is not easy to walk on the uneven stone road.  Gu Feng walked forward with his arm on Ah Bao, as if she was an old lady who needed help.

    The doors of many houses are open, and most of the people inside are old people, trembling and busy.

    The boy looked inside curiously, but he couldn't see any young people.  Many young people in this town have gone out to work.

    Near Zhegao Town are Chaohu City and Hefei City. Although the town is a land of fish and rice, it suffers from floods. A Zhegao River, which is almost as wide as the Qinhuai River, runs across the center of Zhegao Town, dividing it into east and west sides.  The average altitude of this town is only a dozen meters

    ? In the families of the residents living along the river, the student children suffered from being flooded since they were young. When they grow up, they go to Chaohu City, which is slightly higher, or to Hefei City, or to other places.

    Over the years, the bustling street market has gradually become deserted

    Both sides are full of Hui-style dwellings, and the side facing the street is full of walls made of wood planks and bricks.  These planks are detachable.  From the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, most of these dwellings were shops.

    Director Zhang said: "People in Hefei told me before that Zhegao was famous far and wide earlier, let's go have breakfast!"

    Everyone naturally has no objection.  This group of stylishly dressed strangers did not cause much disturbance in the town. The residents of each family were busy with their livelihoods, and few idlers came out to watch.

    Walking along Qiaoxi Street to Yulan Bridge, you will find the sparkling Zhegao River. Weeping willows are planted on both sides of the river, and the willow leaves are lush and whirling, swaying and dancing in the summer wind.

    Jiang Mengmeng looked around, feeling very novel.  The cicadas on the tree sang loudly.  Xiaosi took her little hand and walked forward leisurely, occasionally the two looked at each other and smiled.

    It took only ten or twenty minutes to walk through Qiaoxi Street. When I reached the attic at the end of the bridge, I walked to the dim sum shop.

    When the restaurant owner saw so many foreign guests, he was overjoyed.  He immediately greeted everyone to sit down energetically.  Show them the menu.

    Hot dried silk is also one of the local specialties, but compared with Yangzhou dried silk, the Zhegao version is more bold and unrestrained.

    When the spring rolls were delivered, the crew couldn't help being amazed.  The spring roll filling here is filled with local celery sprouts. It is tender and delicious. It is served with meat filling. The outside is burnt and crispy.

    Lion's head is a kind of deep-fried pasta, shaped like a lion's round head, and it is layered on top of each other. Men love to eat it.

    ? After enjoying the morning tea, everyone discussed that it would be better for them to go on their own free time, but Director Zhang was also afraid that everyone would be separated, so he asked to go together.  Each group must have no fewer than four people.

    "Everyone, each group must have a team leader, you decide for yourself. If anyone gets lost, I will ask the team leader!" Director Zhang picked up his SLR camera and beckoned the leaders to go with him.

    "Brother Gu Feng, you are the team leader of the three of us!" Xiaosi, Jiang Mengmeng and Abao said in unison.  Brother Feng obliged to agree.

    It's the first time for Ah Bao to be so closeShe was very happy when she came into contact with the river. There are some passages around the river that can go down to the river. They are made of stone slabs, one level at a time. She ran down faster than a rabbit.

    Gu Feng startled the boss, and quickly followed his girlfriend to run down.  This girl didn't know the ferocity of the river, so she took off her shoes recklessly and was about to step on the water!

    "Oh, this river is bottomless, how can you go down, girl? If you go down, you will die!" A woman who was washing clothes by the river hurriedly stopped her.

    Xiao Si saw a long bamboo pole lying beside the river, so he picked it up and stuck it towards the bottom of the river.  This bamboo pole was several meters long, and it was completely stuck!

    Only then did Ah Bao shrink back in fright.  She pouted and said, "Then what's the fun?"

    Gu Feng smiled, took out two ham sausages, found a roll of cotton thread from nowhere, and ordered the three little followers: "Go find some dead branches and come here. We'll catch lobsters. But it's agreed, no one is allowed to leave."  It's too close to the river."

    It didn't take long for the three of them to pick up four long dead branches and tie cotton thread on one end, and a small piece of ham sausage on the other end of the thread.

    Jiang Mengmeng couldn't believe it, threw the bait into the water, and muttered, "Can this work?"

    Xiaosi's eyes are very good, he can already see a few red prawns swimming towards the bait ready to go.  I only felt that the hanging wire moved slightly, and then stopped for half a second. When the lobster swallowed the bait, it quickly lifted it out of the water before it could spit out the cotton thread!

    "Okay! Such a big lobster! It's so fierce, how to catch it?" The two girls cried out happily, but they were at a loss.

    Xiao Si said: "There is a grocery store by the roadside, I'll go and buy a plastic bucket."

    "Hurry up, hurry up, I also caught a big one here! My God, what should I do?!" Abao carefully pinched the lobster by its back to prevent it from crawling back into the water.

    When the boy came back with the bucket in his hand, he still had a few more sausages in his hand.

    Before everyone had dinner at noon, Jiang Mengmeng and the others were the last to arrive at the restaurant.  Everyone saw a few guys smiling like they had picked up some big treasure, and Xiao Si was holding a plastic bucket in his hand.

    "What did you guys do in the morning? What's in this bucket?" Assistant Li asked curiously.

    Ah Bao held the dead branch of the shrimp fishing and was reluctant to throw it away. He said with a smile on his face: "This is the lobster we caught with our own hands. I will give you extra lunch at noon! It's a bucket full!" (Remember the website website: www.  hlnovel.com
