Breaking into the Guandong - Northeastern people's eternal nostalgia

One day in late April, Duhui City, secretary-general of the local culture research association, Mr. Fan Yunge sent me an invitation, the research association to the 29th of this month to Duhui City, Caoyuanzi Township to carry out a picking about the old objects, but also will be held in the research association of an annual meeting. As a humanities and history enthusiasts, old objects and old buildings is for many years I am extremely interested in the field (not dare to say research), that day just vacation, so I gladly agreed to go.

April 29th this day, the sky is clear, sun and wind. At about 8:30 in the morning, our party of 17 people excitedly drove to the vegetable garden town of Dabuxiu village, along the way, I and the same car Duhui ten school principal Song Yang, Duhui city famous cultural scholars Wang Jinshi brother, Duhui city famous farmer poet Yang Chengjun brother and the driver brother and others on the culture of the vernacular and other humanities and history issues to talk about very much, ignoring all the way to the laborious.

The car off the highway, straight into the so-called "Jilin tomato township" in the vegetable garden town. According to Ren big brother said: "'vegetable garden' of the name of a place from the Guangxu period there is a family surnamed Ding in this garden planting, known as 'Ding family garden', the Middle East Railway was built, set up a station here, and once to the 'Ding family vegetable garden' named (now Yaojia station)."

Talking about the human history and customs related to the vegetable garden, the driver is more eloquent, and I realized that this brother must not be idle. Later, I realized that the driver is the owner of the destination of our trip - Dewei City, the first collection of old objects mainly in the Guandong native culture garden director Xiao and brother.

After leaving the town of Caiyuanzi, we followed the newly built concrete road all the way to the north, and gradually we drove into a farming area dominated by paddy fields. Newly-turned rice paddies and long waterways are everywhere, and I think if it were June or July, this would be a mesmerizing scene of windswept rice waves.

The village of Dabuxiu is located on the south bank of the Songhua River, and the long Songhua River dam is visible from the concrete road that runs alongside the village. After less than an hour's drive, our SUV stopped at a spacious north-south facing compound in the village.

When we got off the bus, a barn with no door or exterior wall on the east side of the compound drew our attention, and the first thing that caught our eye was the many familiar old objects.

There's no time to get excited, so let's go outside and take a look at the gate, which is very characteristic of the Kanto region.

The gate is decorated with pine veneer, and because the cultural park is newly established, there is no plaque on the door, just a red silk cloth printed with the words "Vegetable garden to break into the Kanto Folklore Culture Park" instead of the door for the time being. The west side of the courtyard door, an old windlass and pure willow preparation of willow canisters there waiting for our visit.

Driven by interest, people have long opened the iron fence into the barn. The barn is filled with old-fashioned farming tools, and since space is limited and there are a lot of objects, the floor, walls and even the roof are fully utilized, turning the barn into a three-dimensional exhibition hall.

Whether it's for plowing, harvesting, transporting or storing, all kinds of agricultural tools are available. We are in the middle of it, and start to have an interesting zero-distance contact with these farming tools that were once closely related to our farming life in the past.

Three not very spacious barns, the most eye-catching is placed in the south side of a flower wheel wagon.

Flower wheel wagon is an ancient car, the wheels are solid birch or quercus wood, wheel hub above the uniform distribution of eighteen small arm-thick spokes, radial connection to the hub rim (wooden wheel), rims outside the installation of iron, wheels outward side can be seen to strengthen many than the copper slightly larger than the side of the "mushroom nails".

The axle is also made of wood, thick and thin bowl, traveling needs to be lubricated (called oil). See this car, so I can not help but think of the pre-Qin era of this kind of wooden wheeled car is an important measure of a country's military strength or not.

The "Land of Ten Thousand Riders" was synonymous with a strong country at that time. I think of the allusion to the "An Che Pu Wheel" (a carriage whose wheels are wrapped in aromatic cattail leaves to ease the bumps), which was the way in which Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty recruited the elderly social virtues such as Meixian, and although his desire to be a wise man was appreciated, Meixian was already very old, and this primitive vibration damping did not allow him to get any comfort in the carriage. The car was not comfortable, before reaching Chang'an, he could not withstand the tossing and turning, he died.

Thousands of sails have passed by the side of a sinking boat, and ten thousand trees have sprung up in front of a sick tree. Although the flower-wheeled cart condenses our ancient great country's craftsmanship, and is a high degree of condensation of the collective wisdom and hard work of thousands of years of working people, it is ultimately a backward productive force compared to the rubber-wheeled horse-drawn carts of later generations.

Interestingly, the director of the garden filial piety and elder brother intentionally placed a rubber-wheeled wagon side by side with it, the stark contrast between the old and new modes of production, is the people's ability to conquer the natural handover and inheritance, social progress and development of the trajectory and the inevitable trend of the people here more at a glance.

Flower wheel north, an old unicycle also aroused people's keen interest. With today's common unicycle is different, the car's body, including wheels are wooden, years of dust has long made it lose its former proud luster.

Wooden unicycle was once more than a hundred years ago, "to break into the East," an important mark, a little bit of knowledge of the history of the Northeast Northeast people know that the Northeast was originally the hometown of the Manchu and other nomadic people, the beginning of the Qing dynasty during the Shunzhi years is the construction of the Willow Border to protect the Manchus once the "Longxing land! "

But, in order to make a living, there has been a constant stream of people who have broken the ban to make a living in the Guandong province.

Many villages in the Northeast are Qianjia years by thousands of miles to break into the Guandong Guanli Han people established, most of them are Hebei, Shandong area of the affected farmers, due to their own poverty, often this wheelbarrow loaded with all the belongings, with their wives and children, full of longing for the distant Guandong, embarked on the reluctant "break into the East! The first is the "Battle of the Bulge", which is the first of its kind in the world.

They wickerwork, dusty, all the way to the Guandong land, by a pair of hard-working hands, open up the grass, from living in a horse frame to the hut to the comfortable housing, from penniless to the life of the rich and stable, will be passionate and blood and sweat sprinkled in the Guandong this hot spot, wrote a magnificent and not lack of sadness of the history of the Northeast immigrants.

Later generations of us can live in peace today, remembering our ancestors, we should always have respect and gratitude.

In the barn, the well-preserved plough stick, windmill car for removing chaff shells, grain storage _, measuring grain bucket, saddle stirrups, the old-fashioned planter columbarium, waterwheel, spinning wheel, pulling the faa with faa knife and other agricultural tools are all available in a wide range of categories, so I'm sorry for not listing them.

The next room displays the daily life tools of the old farming families, whether it is the thread boards and sock sole boards used for mending clothes, the pancake griddle used for food and drink, the big and small copper pots, the exquisite kangtables, as well as the leather ___, the straw shoes, the straw hats, the tobacco bag poles, the blind bye stools, the bamboo tubes and so on, the old objects that are closely related to people's food, clothing, housing and transportation are all on display.

The old bellows, discarded fire pots, lighting lamps, old clocks and so on continue to arouse people's interest.

In the showroom of Ren's carpenter's tools, I saw a series of genealogical books related to the Haiyang Ren family, and through conversation with Ren, I learned that Ren's ancestry is from Haiyang County in Shandong Dengzhou Prefecture, which is neighboring Rongcheng, my ancestral home, which has brought us closer together as two people who love local culture.

***the same ancestry, ****the same nostalgia, the same strong sense of family, so that our two original in the sea of people even if they should meet strangers in this sunny spring began to have an intersection.

Looking at the dusty old objects in the simple exhibition hall, I was overwhelmed with emotion.

In the long history, they have been the masters of our economic and cultural life, and in our daily life, they have been injected with incomparable vitality.

And now, they are nearly forgotten, only helplessly and silently sleep here, looking forward to some kind of power of the new call. I know that as long as our nostalgia is still there, we will activate them again today with some kind of local sentiment.

After the tour, I walked alone in the middle of the town, from east to west, examining a few remaining grass huts, passing the long diversion canal, passing a tall stack of bone grass, passing a white hut cultivating rice seedlings, and unconsciously walking to the westernmost part of the town.

Looking ahead, the sky was high and everything was silent. In the distance, a farm tractor was methodically turning the ground in the field. A southwesterly wind slowly rushes across the face, so warm spring ......
