Baishuiyang has been very popular recently. Yangmei in June just made a name for itself, and the rural competition in July caught the attention of the whole network. Baishuiyang is a town in Linhai, Taizhou. The name of the competition is also a combination of local and foreign elements, called Village BA, and its full name is the Rural Basketball League. The village BA in Baishuiyang has been held for seven consecutive sessions, with each year becoming more and more lively. During the three dog days, the dogs in the village are so hot that they open their tongues and pant, and the competition is usually held at night. The elderly lady in the village is a delicate girl, shaking her fan and pulling her throat at the open-air court in Shuanglou Village. With every goal scored, cheers echoed like mountains and seas roaring.
The final whistle sounded, and the dust settled for the champions and runners up. The audience is very concerned about what the prize is and their eyes are fixed on the podium.
The staff, like the monk Sha from Journey to the West, carried a burden and entered the venue. Haha, the champion's prize is actually a load of emerald crown pears! This load of pears weighs 100 pounds. The prize for the runner up and third place is one shoulder each of the high mountain yellow peaches, which is also 100 pounds. From the perspective of prizes, the value of Cuiguan pear is higher than that of Huangtao. Q: Why are fruits given as prizes? Answer, because it belongs to the local area. Why did you choose Cuiguan pear as the champion's prize? Answer loudly, because in its name, there is a champion's crown. This is the most down-to-earth championship prize I have ever seen, leaving a deep impression.
In the past, the one red and one white of Baishuiyang were famous far and wide. Now with the village BA, one green and one yellow, they have also emerged from the circle. Cuiguan pear, like the village BA, is also worth mentioning. There are many flowers and trees in Jiangnan, and the spring breeze blows together. The peach and pear blossoms in the white water bloom into a sunset, with a bright red moon and white light. I like the tranquility and beauty of pear blossoms. There is an annual Peach Blossom Festival in Baishuiyang. My friends took me to see the peach blossoms, but I was distracted by them. On the roadside, in a farmyard, there are two pear blossoms blooming, with long branches and snow-white flowers extending outside the old house, making people feel only the simplicity of spring. I happened to see an old pear tree, aged, with a thick and sturdy body, branches as black as iron, and an old and weathered appearance. As soon as it blooms, it is clear that it is the young girl of cardamom. In the distant fields, thousands of acres of pear blossoms bloom together, blooming in a grand and magnificent manner. Bai Juyi wrote poetry, and the green flag sold wine while the pear blossoms were blooming. The meaning is that when pear blossoms bloom, it is advisable to drink spring wine in a tavern hanging a blue flag. Once upon a time, there was a wine called "Pear Blossom Spring", which was brewed while the pear blossoms were blooming. There are various nicknames for wine, such as Du Kang, Huan Bo, cup in the cup, teapot cup, pot in the pot, Qingjiu, Forget Worry, Sweeping Sorrow Broom, Prajnaparamita Soup, Qingsheng, Zhuoxian... I think the most elegant name is Li Hua Chun. I don't drink alcohol. If there is a pear blossom spring in the village, I can get drunk in the spring.
My girlfriend Genying and I watched pear blossoms together, and she sighed: All memories of pear blossoms come from the countryside, and only tiled houses, farmhouses, distant mountains, and the earth can highlight the cold beauty of pear blossoms. Genying is a grassroots cadre who is usually busy with the renovation of old houses, demolition and land acquisition. When the pear blossoms bloom, she becomes a romantic poet.
From flowering to fruiting, pear trees are full of anticipation. The hometown is the kingdom of fruits. In early years, pears were very famous. There were 56 kinds of pears, including honey pears, fragrant pears, snow pear pears, plum pears, Qingxiao pears, Shuili pears, etc., as well as pig's head snow pear pears, dagou pears, toilet pears, toad pears, hemp shell pears, and cooked rice pears with strange names. There is a pear called Autumn Laughter, as if in autumn, one will burst into laughter.
There is a type of reed wrapped pear. After the pear flowers wither, the pear tree produces green fruits, and fruit farmers wrap the pears in reed leaf bags. The broad Ruo leaves are often used to wrap Zongzi in the south of the Yangtze River. I never thought there was such a wonderful use. The bamboo leaf bag is made of seven or eight folded bamboo leaves, which are then sewn together with paper grass ropes and placed on the fruit to prevent insects and birds from pecking. This pear is called Ruobao pear, also known as Pubao pear. After bagging the green pears, it seems like they have moved into a grass house that is warm in spring and cool in summer, with insect infestations blocked outside the door. Nowadays, pears are still bagged, but no longer wrapped in straw. Instead, paper bags are used to improve living conditions. Pears are moved from grass houses to paper houses.
Actually, I don't care if the pear has been bitten by bees and pecked by birds. Bees have a greedy mouth, and any fruit that has been bitten by bees is always exceptionally sweet. Birds are also picky foodies, always picking the sweetest bite. But fruit farmers always take good care of their fruits in order to give them a good appearance, fearing that their fruits will break their appearance and lose their value.
When I was a child, there were still many out of town pears in the market. The one I ate the most was Dangshan pear, which I always heard was Tangshan pear. Later, I found out it was Dangshan pear in Anhui. Dangshan pear has a green and large skin, which is crispy and refreshing. The skin is initially green yellow, and later turns earthy yellow. Laiyang pear has also been eaten a lot. It has a rough appearance and looks old, but the skin is old and the flesh is tender, crispy and sweet. When Du Yuesheng was not yet successful, he worked as a street runner in Shili Yangchang, making a living by selling pears. He was selling Laiyang pears, and he ran around the 16th shop shouting to sell pears. It only took seven seconds to peel a pear, and a row of pear skins kept peeling. He was nicknamed "Laiyang Pear" by others.
In recent years, I have been eating Cuiguan pear from my hometown, and I have almost forgotten the taste of Dangshan pear and Laiyang pear. Cuiguan pear has a good name that sounds a bit refreshing. This type of pear has a thin green skin. Take a bite, it is delicate and refreshing, and the taste is a bit like the famous Korla pear in Xinjiang. However, the Korla pear has a light green skin and a small size, while the Cuiguan pear is full and tall, with the charm of a Tang Dynasty lady. Mature Cuiguan pears have fine skin and tender flesh. If accidentally touched, they will release a cloud of jade paste, known as "June snow". I prefer fruits with a sweet and refreshing taste, and after eating, there is a slight freshness between my lips and teeth.
The emerald crown pear with white water is sweet and crisp. When the pear is ripe, a small brown patch can be seen on the green skin, which is snow-white and plump inside, sweet and juicy. Freeze in the refrigerator for a while, cut it into pieces, place it on a celadon plate, poke it with a toothpick and take a bite, it is especially crispy and sweet, and the internal organs also instantly cool down.
In the eyes of ancient people, fruits, like humans, also had generations. The Book of Song said that pears were the "ancestor of a hundred fruits.". In ancient times, pears were also known as honey father, quick fruit, jade milk, etc. The ancients believed that pears were the father and ancestor of fruits. But it does not easily qualify for aging, but can be eaten raw or cooked, which can clear the heat of the six organs and nourish the yin of the five organs. Someone is suffering from tuberculosis, so he asked the late Ming physician Fu Qingzhu. The prescription Fu Qingzhu prescribed for him was a ship of pears. The tuberculosis ghost traveled from Shanxi to Henan, sitting on a boat with nothing to do and eating pears. As a result, before the person arrived home, the disease healed.
My son coughed when he was a child, and I couldn't bear it. He went to the hospital for injections and suffered from the pain of skin and flesh. The old man told me a folk prescription, Sichuan Bei stewed pear can relieve cough. I went to the pharmacy to buy Chuanbei powder, hollowed out the pears, added Chuanbei and rock sugar, simmered them in water, and ate them a few times. Sure enough, they were good.
There are many famous people who love pears. In the past, Wang Xianzhi wrote "Sending Pears", which said, "Sending three hundred pears today. In the late snow, it's not good." Just like his father Wang Xizhi sending oranges, he made three hundred at once. Li Bai said, "Wine drinkers love autumn vegetables, while mountain dishes recommend frost pears." - What is used to make wine? Autumn vegetables and fruits, a plate of frosted pears to appetizer!
