Due to the epidemic this year, most of the time I stayed at home and didn't have to tidy up. I was lazy reading, listening to music, watching movies and drinking tea. It was quiet and comfortable, and I enjoyed myself. However, after I had been in the nest for a long time, I wanted to escape. In March, I went back to my hometown for the first time. After a week, I used to go to the hospital many times and usually returned in three or four days. In addition, my sore throat that could not improve after taking medicine for a long time has gradually improved. Maybe the countryside is a good place to repair my poor body and anxious soul. This time, a friend was a little depressed and wanted to go to the surrounding area for a short vacation to relax. She was once an executive director of the Fortune 500 and had super executive power. Therefore, as soon as she suggested, I agreed, she immediately booked a place, booked a trip, and booked a B & B. I was happy to follow.

The 8:20 high-speed train goes to Hangzhou East. Due to the special period, the express train could not be booked three hours after applying for the Hangzhou Health Code, so I took a taxi to Qingzhiwu. As soon as I got off the car and entered the gate, I felt like I had seen it before. It turned out that this was near the Yuquan Campus of Zhejiang University. A classmate who taught at Zhejiang University many years ago showed me around.

Qingzhiwu: Villages existed in the Jin Dynasty. Volume 5 of the Southern Song Dynasty's "Old Things in Wulin": Hushan Shengzhong, called Qingzhiwu. In Bai Juyi's works,"The color of the jade spring is clear, and the body of the floating clouds is leisurely", which is recited in Qingzhiwu. Qingzhiwu is located on the north side of Yugu Road, between the Yuquan Campus of Zhejiang University and the Botanical Garden.

This small village now houses as many coffee and tea bars, restaurants and B & Bs, which is attractive next to famous schools and scenic spots.

My friend originally had a reservation for B & B, but it was not what he expected when he arrived, so he canceled the reservation and chose it after a field trip. Due to the special period, there were plenty of rooms to choose from. We walked all the way along the main road. It was already noon and it was very hot and irritable. When we walked for more than half of the way, the air suddenly became fresh and comfortable, and our mood suddenly became happy. It really matched the strange scenery deep in the alley. The beautiful scenery was often hidden in the corner, so we walked into the reception desk with blue lotus flowers. The young lady at the front desk was very enthusiastic and took the trouble to show us the three buildings next to her.(Pillow clouds, Africa, on the stream) There were many rooms. Finally, we chose the afternoon on the stream with a balcony, a garden, a flowing stream, and a wide view and fresh air.

There are a total of 10 rooms on the river: If, Meet, Afternoon, Anran, Flowing Time, White Moonlight, Follow Her, Bao Dong, When, Xixi, there is a cafe and gallery on the first floor and a small courtyard with a swing

Xishang-let her There is also a small tea room when I saw the round bed room, I remembered that the B & B that lived in Weizhou Island in 2017 for wedding photos also had such a room. At that time, we chose a sea view room with a balcony to watch the scenery. The brain usually likes regular information, and this time we also chose a balcony room with a wide view and beautiful scenery.

Almost all rooms prefer balconies, courtyards, hanging chairs, fresh air and wide views.afternoon

This is the book "Leaving Part of the Time to Strangers" written by Wu Hou, the owner of the B & B. The book shares his feelings and insights on how to open a popular B & B.

Nowadays, everyone is busy in life, and they are afraid of disturbing others. In the end, they couldn't help but call his classmates to say hello. I didn't expect him to have Longjing tea delivered to me from the Ming Dynasty, so I had a balcony to drink Longjing tea in the morning. It was fun! I was going to the store to buy mineral water to make tea, but later I found that tap water was also good.

Two sunny afternoons, I met the owners of two books in a corner making a cup of tea and listening to them tell their life stories!

Lunch choices are OKPushu, I just happened to have dinner near the window, with beautiful scenery and delicious food, so happy!

The next morning, my friend had something to do at home and had to go back. After sending my friend off, I started to stroll around and discovered another branch of the blue lotus flower.the Ranger, next to it is a tea garden.

I really think it's that bear, lying lazily there in a daze---

While traveling, I saw an old man sitting in a wheelchair and stepping uphill with his feet. From time to time, he would come down to push him. I asked him if he needed help. He looked at me and didn't respond. He might be deaf. If he could be like this, he should be his daily life, so I walked aside, and when I walked back, I met him again, and he had already climbed the slope. As Finnish writer Tim Monina said: When traveling, don't just go sightseeing, but experience what it feels like to live there. I like to capture touching moments of such encounters.

porcelain sound: Seeing that the outer wall was covered with porcelain, I thought of the porcelain house in Tianjin. I liked porcelain, so I went in to find out.

Shen residenceWhen I went there, I saw several groups of people taking photos. It seems that this is also a photography base.

After going around and around, I finally discovered Evian written in the book. It really came from the owner's order: Flowing water falls on the beach without intention, white clouds emerge on the edge without intention

I had a bowl of shrimp fried udon for coffee elsewhere, and I also had some coffee

The blue lotus flowers described in the book have been successfully opened in all places in Qingzhiwu. Every house has surprises and is new to everything I have seen in the past. In addition, the Pu Shu, Shen Zhai, Ci Yin, and Chatian Wu Se I saw also had some characteristics, but the others I passed by did not have a deep impression. (Purely personal opinion)

In the past, most of my travels stayed in youth hostels and B & Bs. I like to gather together at night and tell interesting stories about their travel experiences. Sometimes I will meet the owners of Youth Hostel B & B and listen to their connection with Youth Hostel B & B. Stories, I will have a deeper understanding of the story behind my favorite style of Youth Hostel B & B. There were very few tourists due to the epidemic this time, and I also met them for two quiet afternoons through reading.

Hangzhou Botanical Garden: There are nine exhibition areas and four experimental areas including plant classification, economic plants, bamboo plants, ornamental plants, trees, and landscape gardens. The ornamental plant area consists of Mulan Mountain Tea Garden, Rhododendron Maple Garden, Osmanthus Crape Garden, Peach Blossom Garden, Lingfeng Plum Garden, Baicao Garden, Shanshui Garden, and Bamboo Plant Area.

I entered from the entrance of Qingzhiwu in the Botanical Garden, and kept going along the main road from the door near Yuquan Yuyue. I turned a corner and reached the entrance of Qingzhiwu. It took me almost 2 hours to walk

Because my friend's family had something to do and I rushed back early in the morning, I went to the Botanical Garden alone. I didn't go there until 4 p.m. when the sun was about to go down. Therefore, I was afraid of getting lost and walking on the main road and running into an older sister, so I took the initiative to find out what was fun. She suggested that I find the green plum trees on the roadside, so that I wouldn't be afraid if I had something to do.

Green plum and peach? Based on my knowledge, I inferred that the green plum is small, the peach is slightly larger, the green plum surface is smooth, and the peach surface is fluffy.

When I encountered various photography scenes in Yuquan Fish Jump, it seemed like a fast-moving anchor was taking material, and I like to secretly take pictures of people who are focused on their work.

After visiting the Botanical Garden, I ate a bowl of rice noodles in Qingzhiwu, and it was almost past the rush hour. Therefore, at 6:30, I called an express train to return home, ending my two-day life in Qingzhiwu.

Summary :

As said in the Book of Marquis Wu: Everyone has two selves in their hearts: one stays in this worldly world and struggles in pain, drifting with the so-called rules of life and saying insincere words; the other stays in the spiritual world. Desiring to be the most authentic self

Perhaps the simple and free life in the countryside when I was a child has always affected me, and I still live in my own world in a fast-paced big city. As I get older, I miss the more I miss the promiscuity, without worldly competition and pressure, pastoral rural life, but I have found that I can't go back---

Therefore, the best way is to leave the noisy and crowded city occasionally, go to places with mountains and rivers to get close to nature, and breathe fresh air.

Cost of this trip:

Eat: Lunch on the first day of Pu Shu 4 dishes 104 yuan, dinner Nanshan South 4 dishes 130 yuan

The next day, breakfast porridge with steamed dumplings and dumplings was 37 yuan, and lunch Evian's coffee and shrimp fried udon was 55 yuan

Dinner: Tomato Fish Ball Rice Noodles 22 yuan, Subtotal 212.5/person

Accommodation: 299/2=149.5 yuan (different apps have different prices, and different people have different prices for the same app. After selecting the cheapest one, I saved 81 yuan). I just happened to find that the price of B & B has dropped a lot, and now it only costs 199 yuan.

Line: round-trip high-speed rail 118, round-trip taxi 47/2+36.09=59.69 yuan Subtotal: 177.69 yuan

Total cost of this trip: 539.69 yuan

Finally, use Sanmao's words to summarize the trip:

Real happiness is not ecstasy or the absence of pain. It is a long flow of fine water and a clear sea. Being an ordinary person among all living beings and enjoying the joy of a moment of life.
