Jixi Literary Town 丨 Look at Hu Shi's dream back to Huizhou

A lifetime of obsession, no dreams to Huizhou. Jixi Literary Town, a subsidiary of Anhui Cultural Tourism Group, is located in Jixi Shangzhuang, an important birthplace of Hui culture. When it comes to Jixi Shangzhuang, I can always think of many celebrity anecdotes. The theme functional area of the celebrity hometown of Jixi Literary Town includes the famous Hu Shi Former Residence, Hu Shouji House and Hu Kaiwen Memorial Hall in the shangzhuang ancient building complex.

Today, I invite you to walk into Hu Shi's former residence and feel Hu Shi's dream of returning to Huizhou. Hu Shi's former residence, completed in the 23rd year of Qing Guangxu (1897), consists of the former residence body, the east-facing building, the west-facing hall house, the south-facing study, the Hushi private school, the huchuan former residence and the courtyard, covering an area of 1415 square meters, which is a national cultural relics protection unit.

Hu Shi's Jixi Shangzhuang

"I came from the mountains with orchids..." A small poem is fresh and simple, meaning timeless, and widely sung. The side hall of "Loving Mother Reading with Children" serves as the enlightenment study of Hu Shi's childhood, with a gentle breeze and bursts of orchids. As the "hometown of a pot" and "the hometown of culture", Jixi Shangzhuang has a long history of culture. Hu Shi's pen naturally praises the beautiful scenery of his hometown. In Jixi Shangzhuang, Hu Shi received an enlightened education in his childhood and adolescence, and later returned to his hometown to marry his wife. He often said that he was a native of Huizhou, and once wrote the inscription "Strive to be a camel of Huizhou" to encourage his fellow villagers. Even after leaving his hometown, Hu Shi has always paid attention to the development of his hometown, and he has also served as the principal of Shangzhuang Primary School, cultivating the children's scientific method of "bold hypothesis and careful verification". In his later years, Hu Shi still often read and chanted in the Jixi dialect.

Hu Shi's relationship with a pin pot

"This dish is a famous dish of the hometown, please enjoy the light and taste it, the authentic hometown taste." - Hu Shi

Hu Shi mentioned that it is "Jixi Yipin Pot", also known as Hu Shi Yipin Pot, Reunion Pot, Yipin Pot, which originated in Shangzhuang, Jixi County. Folk people often mention the story of Hu Shi and Yipin Pot. During his tenure as ambassador to the United States, Hu Shi frequently entertained foreign guests with this dish and made Hui cuisine go global. Liang Shiqiu went to Hu Shi's house for the first time, and he tasted the Jixi Yipin pot. Liang Shiqiu was full of praise after tasting it, and wrote a description: "A large iron pot, with a caliber of two or three feet, was served hot, and it was still boiling inside. A layer of chicken, a layer of duck, a layer of meat, a layer of oil tofu, dotted with some egg dumplings, as well as radishes, green vegetables, the taste is very good. ”

If you want to taste the most authentic Hu Shi Yi Pin Pot, you must go to the Yi Pin Guo Zhuang Hotel located in Jixi Literature Town. The Hu Shi Yipin pot here is brightly colored, rich in side dishes, and rich in flavor, and the appetite is greatly opened just by looking at it. In addition, Yipin Naozhuang Hotel also has a variety of authentic Hui cuisine, simple and fresh ingredients to create a unique flavor.
