Chapter 217 Hutongs and Courtyards in Yanjing!

After Song Xinmin and Hou Kai left.

Yang Ming rested in the luxurious suite of Yanjing Hotel.

There are no computers here, but there are televisions and newspapers.

What I see now are domestic newspapers.

The information in the newspaper is not all, but you can learn a lot.

. . .

noon.

Yang Ming, Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, Tang Yun, who had just arrived, and Chen Zhenhua's bodyguards went to Yanjing Hotel for lunch.

Yesterday, she accompanied Mr. Yang to climb the Great Wall for a day. As an old Yanjing native, Tang Yun found that she couldn't bear it when she came back. She was also curious about how Mr. Yang, a rich man from Xiangjiang's rich family, did it. .

After having breakfast at the restaurant of Yanjing Hotel.

Tang Yun asked: "Mr. Yang, where are you going this afternoon?"

Yang Ming has been to a lot of places these days.

Things like the National Museum of History, the Forbidden City, Tian'anmen, the Summer Palace, and the Badaling Great Wall that I went to yesterday, and probably the Ming Tombs, and I haven't been to Xiangshan Park yet.

For example, the Ming Tombs is the largest existing imperial tomb complex in China and even the world, with the largest number of imperial tombs.

The mausoleum and underground palace belonging to the Ming emperor.

It's okay to visit during the day, but it's eerie and gloomy at night, so it's not suitable to visit.

Yang Ming doesn't plan to go for the time being.

As for Xiangshan Park.

The red leaves of Xiangshan Park are famous both at home and abroad.

Especially when autumn comes, the red leaves in Xiangshan begin to turn red.

During the National Day, the red leaves in Xiangshan became even redder. Yang Ming planned to take time to see it before leaving Yanjing.

"Ms. Tang, I want to take a look around the local area. However, we won't take the bus."

local?

The most representative features of Yanjing are of course the hutongs and courtyard houses.

Before this, Yanjing had demolished many alleys and courtyard houses.

Some hutongs and courtyards are still preserved, which are basically where local indigenous people live.

Tang Yun is an old Yanjing native. She grew up in Yanjing. She is Rong Zhijian's cousin, and her family background is naturally considered good.

Now I know that Yang Ming wants to see the real life in the local area.

"Mr. Yang, let me take you to see the alley."

alley?

Hutong, also called "long", "alley" or "alley", refers to the relatively small streets between the main streets in towns or villages, leading to the interior of residential areas.

It is an integral part of communicating local traffic.

According to road accessibility, alleys are divided into dead ends and live alleys.

The former has only one opening, which ends deep into the residential area and is interrupted inside; while the latter communicates two or more main streets.

Hutongs are a major feature of Yanjing and Suzhou.

But Suzhou calls it "alley".

When Yang Ming lived in Yanjing in his previous life, of course he knew alleys and courtyards.

At that time, Yanjing was already very modern.

Those very distinctive hutongs and courtyard houses were basically demolished and turned into high-rise buildings in Yanjing.

At this time, in the late 1970s, the terms "Yanjing's first ring road, second ring road, and even third ring road" had not really appeared, and real estate had not been commercialized, which meant that there were still many hutongs and even courtyard houses. .

In that case, Yang Ming really wanted to take a look.

Zhong Chuhong, Ah Zhu, and Lin Xiuzhi are from Xiangjiang. They don't know the difference between hutongs and the streets and alleys in Xiangjiang.

Only when they actually see it do they really know the difference.

Yang Ming, Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, and Chen Zhenhua, led by Tang Yun, did not need to ride in those high-end Hongqi cars.

The group left the Yanjing Hotel and went to a nearby alley.

On the road.

Yang Ming saw many young men and women wearing similar factory uniforms walking by, talking and laughing.

Some of these young men and women were riding 28-bar bicycles, and some were walking.

Yang Ming knew that these people should be the people who eat iron rice bowls in this era.

They either work in government agencies or in state-owned enterprises in Yanjing.

After a month, you will receive different wages and benefits according to different levels.

Even then, they are already a group of people with relatively high incomes in the country.

Compared with these people, most ordinary farmers may not have an income of a few yuan a month, they may not even have enough food to eat, and they may not have many meals of meat throughout the year.

This is the situation under the domestic planned economy in this era!

Ah Zhu pushed Yang Ming in the wheelchair, and Tang Yun introduced him to him.

Tang Yun was wearing a beautiful colorful skirt and hat. She looked as well dressed as the fashionable young men and women in Xiangjiang.

This kind of skirt is not available in China. Obviously, it should have been sent to her by Rong's family overseas.

In order to leave a good impression in front of Mr. Yang, Tang Yun also dressed well.

Tang Yun introduced it from the side, and Yang Ming also took note of it.

When you come to a place.

Yang Ming had already seen the houses on both sides of the road.

The road is not big, except for some old trees that have no leaves. On both sides are the courtyards that Tang Yun mentioned.

Why are the hutongs in Yanjing different from the alleys in other cities?

The difference lies here.

The formation of Hutongs in Yanjing is mostly related to the local courtyard houses.

There are courtyards on both sides of the alley and a road in the middle, forming an alley.

However, alleys in other cities may be small roads formed by urban villages.

"Mr. Yang, this is a very unique alley in Yanjing. Also, there are courtyards on both sides of the alley."

Yang Ming looked over.

One of the courtyards was really not small, but when I looked inside, I didn't see anyone.

Tang Yun introduced them as they walked.

It's not just Yang Ming and the others. In fact, they occasionally have other white tourists who have just come from abroad for inspection or tourism. Those white tourists take out their cameras to take pictures.

Later, most of the remaining alleys and courtyard houses of this era were photographed by white people.

It’s not that there are no cameras in the country, nor that you can’t take pictures.

Nowadays, domestic and foreign countries are like two worlds in terms of material and spiritual aspects. No one has the leisure to take pictures everywhere with a camera.

"Master, that tree in front is so beautiful."

Ah Zhu suddenly stopped and pointed to an old tree in front of him.

The old tree has no leaves and is covered with yellow persimmons.

This is the persimmon tree.

However, persimmons can be eaten directly or made into persimmon cakes. Not many people really like to eat them.

Eating large amounts of persimmons for a long time or on an empty stomach may cause certain effects, such as increasing the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and irritating the gastrointestinal tract.

Excessive intake of persimmons may increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and easily cause abdominal distension and pain or nausea and vomiting.

At the same time, persimmon is a cold fruit. For people with spleen and stomach deficiency, eating too much persimmon may cause irritation to the gastrointestinal tract, and may also be accompanied by adverse reactions such as increased stool frequency.

The branches of this persimmon tree are covered with persimmons, but no matter how poor you are, not many people actually eat them, so many of them are eaten directly on the tree by birds, crows, or fall to the ground.

Looking back now, as a landscape tree, it is quite beautiful.

In addition to persimmon trees, there are also locust trees.

Yang Ming remembered that he had visited the preserved alleys and courtyards in his previous life. Basically, he could no longer see any trees.

This is the characteristic of Yanjing Hutong in the late 1970s!

Not many people.

very quiet.

The road also looks relatively clean.
