Guanzhuang Town is a famous town with a long history in Biyang County. Its history can be traced back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the Zhangjia Courtyard in xia zhuang, Guanzhuang Town is the best historical witness.
With the click of the camera, we stepped on the broken bricks and walked into the Zhangjia Courtyard. Faced with a large courtyard of several thousand square meters, we were amazed at the background and financial resources of the Zhang family at that time.
Sunlight falls from the cracks of wild leaves, as if through this time to find the original scenery and stories.
It was also an autumn.
Autumn wind blows gently, and several pomegranate leaves fall. The sparse leaves on the tree can't stop the red pomegranate body, and the full seeds are tightly gathered together. The ever-expanding desire for growth broke the bondage of mother. The crystal as bright as a gem reflects Qiuyang's attachment, the broom sweeps the yellow leaves gently, and the bamboo leaves sweep across every inch of the yard, and the yard is clean and tidy again soon.
"Sir, this is the rent account this year. Please have a look. " A health promotion ledger was handed over.
"Read," a long sound with majestic power. The speaker is an old man with closed eyes, lying on his back in a plush chair, enjoying the warm sunshine, and thick round crystal glasses divide the world into two colors.
"This autumn, I received: rice ... sorghum ... millet ... corn. ......
Master Zhang fell asleep while listening. This deep sleep lasted for hundreds of years.
With the flying rabbit gone, times have changed. When we visited, the Zhangjia Courtyard was not what it used to be.
Family precepts are still there, there are not many rooms, and collapsed foundations are everywhere.
The first room of the hospital is still there, and a couplet is conspicuously engraved on the high square column:
If a person is not holy, it is difficult to stand on his feet.
If you don't advance, you will retreat. What time are you coming back?
Family precepts are the motto of a family, and the prominent Zhang family reached its peak under the guidance of this philosophical couplet.
The Zhangjia Courtyard runs through the whole village, just like a small town, occupying half of the village.
"Jinxiazhuang, Yinshimen and Honghe are a cornucopia." This is a xia zhuang folk song that has been circulated for thousands of years. Xia zhuang, Shimen and Honghe are neighboring villages, where the terrain is flat and the soil is fertile, and the yield of an acre of crops is twice that of other places.
The Zhang family moved here for a certain reason. First of all, the fertile land here can provide enough food and clothes for their children and grandchildren. Second, there is a river behind the village, which goes around the village all the year round. From the perspective of geomantic omen, it is indeed a good place for human beings to thrive.
Only a few hundred years in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, this old house built by Zhang's ancestors has become like this.
It is often said that wealth is less than three generations. Perhaps this conforms to the natural law of historical development. Will the builders of the Zhangjia Courtyard be told that they will not regret it?
While admiring the wisdom and historical civilization of the ancients, he lamented the changes of history.
I have seen the old house of the Zhang family in xia zhuang, and I wonder if I can shake some people's greedy dream of buying a house. Maybe your real estate today will become a ruin under your feet in the next century.
