Gudu summer

This summer, the Shaojia Ferry on the bank of Yaojiang has stopped for more than half a year.

Another bridge connecting Ningbo Haishu and Jiangbei West Hong Bridge has been opened to traffic.

Banpudu, who has hundreds of years of history, is still waiting for guests.

The ferry people travel back and forth over and over, not slow or slow.

Photographers Huang Congtao and Huang Youlan came here again and again,

Ding Gudu's morning dusk every day- 定 ——

Banpuku was once the transportation of Yaojiang traffic,

More than 800 years ago, the upstream and downstream and the opposite -bank merchants were transferred here.

Later, the Zheng family, who lived in Banpu Village, donated the land to build a righteous ferry.

Create three ferry ships, take turns to send off from the day and night.

The trapezine and the Banpu Village will bring the bustling past and poetry.

Today, this Jiangnan village is one of the top ten historical and cultural villages in Ningbo.

The stone pillars next to the ferry are still there,

But no longer quoted at night like that year,

Just silently witnessed the flow of time, people come and go.

The ferry boat drives very early every day,

This photo was taken at 5:46 am,

The ferry in Chaoxia is like a oil painting.

In order to shoot the first class, the Huang Congtao couple got up early,

But when he arrived, he had gone back and forth several times.

"It will drive at four o'clock at four o'clock."

He said that this is the tradition left by the Banpu Watanabe.

Yan Guohua lived nearby, and the steering wheel of the ferry ship was only three or four years.

His predecessor is Zhuang Jianmin, and he has grown up here since he was a child.

Since the age of 37, he has started to work, and has passed a trip, nearly 30 years have passed.

"Come slowly, be careful of your feet." "Sit well."

In the sound of the sudden motor, people, goods, and battery cars were all on the boat.

Zhuang Jianmin said that it would rather take a step slowly, and you have to wait for someone and the electric car to stabilize and then drive again.

There is also a boat that can not stay up late, drink, the engine must be standardized ...

These Yan Guohua also remembered, "Be careful to get thousands of years."

Early in the morning, sent the villagers to Takahashi and other places on the other side, and then returned in the evening.

Except for these two small peaks, the time to stay at the ferry is long and lonely.

When gossip with the villagers, Zhuang Jianmin occasionally thought of a child,

At that time, there were dozens of merchants such as rice shops, oil shops, and inn, and other dozens of merchants.

"The busiest is Yang Meiji. The people on the other side crowded the boat and took the bayberry to Sanqi City. Many people picked firewood and mountain goods to buy and sell. A group of children turned around the boat. It's. "

Now those shops are gone,

There is only a small barber shop next to the ferry.

This shop has also opened for many years,

The master who was shaving said that his craftsmanship was passed down from Grandpa.

Zhuang Jianmin retired, but still stayed by the ferry,

Occasionally, Yan Guohua handles.

"As long as the ferry is still open, the person who ferry is there."

He raised a puppy and took a leisurely play.

The green mountains and green water, the sky is low, the clouds are wide,

The old boatman and yellow dog on the side of the ferry are easily reminiscent of Shen Congwen’s "Border City".

It's just that the girl Cui Cui is missing.

"How can young people do this."

The speed speed up and bridge roads over the years, extending bridge roads,

It's hard to say how long Gudu can run,

But we are still grateful to the poeticness of the persistence and nostalgia.

"If you can't find a flower that can be delivered by the ferry, let's don't get the blessing on the placket."

I hope that in the future, the beauty of the ferry is not only in Xi Murong's poems, Cai Qin’s song,

It is still in real daily life, lively memories.
