Lesson 2 Winter in Jinan Lao She For someone who is used to living in
Beiping, like me, it is a miracle if the wind does not blow in winter; there is
no wind in Jinan in winter. For someone who has just returned from London, like
me, it would be a miracle if I could see daylight in winter; the winter in
Jinan is loud and clear. Naturally, in tropical places, the daylight is always
so poisonous, and the loud weather is a bit frightening. However, in the winter
of northern China, Jinan is really a precious place to have warm and clear
weather. If there is sunshine alone, it is
not surprising. Just close your eyes and think: isn't it an ideal situation to
have an old city with mountains and water, all under the sun, sleeping in peace
and warmth, waiting for the spring breeze to wake them up? The hills surround Jinan, with only
the north side missing a bit of the mouth. This circle of hills is especially
lovely in winter, as if they are putting Jinan in a small cradle, quietly and
motionlessly whispering, "Don't worry, it will be warm here." Really,
the people of Jinan are smiling in winter. As soon as they look at the hills,
they feel that they have something to fall back on. When they see the hills
from the sky, they unconsciously think: "Tomorrow may be spring, right?
With such warmth, the grass might be green this night, right?" It is this
fantasy can not be realized, they are not anxious, because there is such a charitable
winter, why hope for anything else! The best thing is to have a little
snow. Look, the pines on the mountain are getting more and more green and
black, and the tips of the trees are topped with a child's white flowers, like
Japanese nursing maids. The tip of the mountain is all white, giving the blue
sky a silver edge. On the slope of the mountain, some places are thicker with
snow, and some places are still exposed with grass; thus, one is white and one
is dark yellow, giving the mountains a flowery coat with water patterns;
looking at it, the flowery coat seems to be blown by the wind, making you wish
to see a little more beautiful skin of the mountain. When the sunset is near,
the yellowish sunlight slants on the mountainside, the thin snow seems to be
suddenly shy, slightly showing some pink. It's just a little snow, Jinan can't
take a lot of snow, those hills are too showy! The old Jinan, the city so narrow,
outside the city and so spacious, the hillside lying on some small villages,
small villages on the roof of the lying snow, yes, this is a small ink
painting, perhaps the famous hands of the Tang Dynasty painting it. The water, not only does not freeze,
but on the contrary, in the green duckweed with some hot air, algae is really
green, the year-round storage of green all out. The clearer the day, the
greener the algae, with the spirit of these green, the water can not bear to freeze,
and those long branches of the weeping willow to take a shadow in the water!
Look, by the clarification of the river slowly look up, the air, mid-air, the
sky, from top to bottom are so clear, so blue, the whole is a piece of ethereal
blue crystal. In this crystal, there are red rooftops, yellow grass hills, and
small gray shadows of trees like small flowers on a carpet; this is Jinan in
winter. |
