Stroll through Zhuzifang, pass through the high archway, the bustling afterglow of the East Street Entrance blows into the alley with the wind, and the shady green trees on the banks of the Antai River are shrouded in the hasty imprints of history.
New life is also injected into Zhu Zifang, handbook shops, cafes, art spaces, is the surprise brought by literary and artistic people to the old alleys.
Between the alleys and alleys, light and shadow are floating, and time is flowing.

In my middle school days, Zhu Zifang seemed to be repaired forever.
On the way to school, in the slightly dilapidated deep alley, it is common to see an old grandmother holding flowers, slowly walking from the other end of the alley to this end of Jinmen Road.
In the early years, Zhu Zifang seemed to be often overlooked, and even if he stayed in the neighborhood for a few years, he only knew that there were several old houses nearby, and never explored their mysteries inside.
I also always felt that ZhuZifang was a bottomless deep alley, because the rows of silver birches along the Antai River blocked the view, making people mistakenly think that if you passed this road, you must pull out the slender branches and leaves in order to freely move on the squeezed path.
Let's take a stroll through ZhuZifang. Entering from the end of South Street, the "Zhuzifang Visitor Center" is our first stop.
Here, you can sit on the stairs on both sides, small talk, read, everything is up to you.
I happened to encounter a group of children on the tour, the childish children's voices swaying in the center, the all-white decoration and the exquisite arrangement on the bookshelves were unbearable.
A few steps forward, there is the "Antai Bridge", which in ancient times was also known as the "Lishi Bridge". Song Dynasty Zeng Gong's poem "Night Over the LiShimen":
"The red sarong light crosses the sloping bridge, and the halo flying into the bucket is repeated." People are still not sleeping in the painting building, and the five tides of the bright moon are full of the.
Although the prosperity of Rongcheng has long been preempted by the opposite East Street Entrance, in the rows of celebrity former residences and garden buildings in Zhu Zifang, the prosperity of the past can always be seen one or two.

On the walking bridge, there are red ribbons left by people's wishes, and "happy and happy" and "healthy and peaceful" are the most common wishes.
The river flows under the bridge, and from between the gaps in the wishing strip, the waves flicker and float, and they are incredibly beautiful.
In my previous impression, Zhu Zifang was slightly shabby. It's like this "Qunhua Xuemei" clothing store by the bridge.
Even the Spring League has faded, this is probably a fragment of the old time, who knows what kind of situation this rusty iron door will be when it is opened?
After the renovation, Zhu Zifang has added a lot of cultural and creative elements, and two or three stories of wall paintings and cartoon models of the same height as people can be seen everywhere.
The sign at the bathroom door is very interesting, "thatched toilet" is the old name, but the typography is full of modern cartoonism, some playful, some crossing.
I don't know when it started, near the end of Jinmen Road, there was a large row of red lanterns hanging, and every time I passed, it was difficult to take my eyes off this red.
If the former residences of celebrities and the gray walls and green tiles add a "nostalgic" label to Zhu Zifang, then fresh shops like "Take You Happy" give it a "new" texture.
In "Bring You Fun", people are really "exploring" the shop.
If you enter from Jinmen Road, you have to go through a long parking lot; if you enter from Zhuzifang, you need to pass through a narrow gate at the entrance of the alley - like the "deep palace" of the old days, with seven twists and eight winds, and there are no holes.
"Take You Happy" is located at No. 6 Zhuzifang, illustrator Guo Guo and Tiger Handbook Organizer Xiao Q hit it off and settled the small handbook shop "Take You Happy" in this century-old mansion deep in fang alley.

Many people say that Fuzhou is not like the north, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and the atmosphere of literature and art does not seem to be strong, but when you really enter the world of literature and art, you will find that there are actually many fellow travelers.
Whether it is running a handbook market or opening a small handbook shop, the two managers have a heart of "try it". In the old mansion, he explored the literary and artistic journey about handicrafts and Fuzhou.
Usually in the shop is the "old store manager", a handmade man.
When I first entered the small shop, the old store manager was telling a story to two girls at the window.
This is a picture book from Zhengzhou, because it has been soaked by the flood, the damage of the book makes some plots can only rely on "guessing", just in this guessing and searching, even adults can bloom here.
When I walked and chatted with the old shopkeeper in the old house, I felt that here, time flows slowly, as if everything is unreasonable, and here it can become reasonable.
Everything full of beauty can also be accurately captured.
Whether it is a handmade bird by the window or a small ornament by the glass door, there is no established photo angle.
Everyone has their own understanding of "beauty", and when I walk here, I can't help but feel that there is beauty everywhere, driving me to freeze them with my camera.
The old mansion has two floors, and walks up the creaky wooden staircase, and the golden light shines on the ground, just like the scene in the movie.
The old store manager said that the owner of the old house returned from New York last month and told them the story of the old house.
In the turbulent times, sadness and joy are a common thing, and today, the past exchanges and runs have been precipitated here, and memory has created a unique flavor of beauty.
Turning a corner, inside the small room, by the small window, the house that was once inhabited by the servants of the old house is now equipped with new tables and chairs, and from the window, looking out, is a high wall.
Turning your head, the greenery on the side terrace is in full bloom. Although it is only a small room, in this old mansion full of historical sense, there is quite a mood.
"Sense of story" and "contingency" are my deepest perceptions of "bringing you pleasure".
Embroidered badges, material bags, and blind boxes all have their own creative stories, moments of inspiration, and the creations have unique details.
Autumn evening came early, the sunset shuttled through the alleys, as if the slow button had been pressed, out of the small shop, stopped by the Antai River for a moment.
Watching the pedestrians coming and going, watching the wind and clouds, I think this is a kind of unconventional beauty, and it is also a gift brought to us by the golden autumn and time.
Fahai Road also belongs to the Zhuzifang neighborhood, the most romantic, probably opposite the Fahai Temple side by side with several large trees.
In the evening, the sun crosses through the gaps in the leaves, leaving a shadow on the white wall, and also reflecting the rush of passers-by romantically.
The "Garden Lane" is on the side of Fahai Road, twisting and turning along the path, and "Joyful Coffee" appears in front of your eyes.
Enter the shop for a cup of coffee sprinkled with osmanthus flowers, sit on the rooftop and take a nap, watching the sun gradually set behind the White Tower, and watching the sunset of the city cover the entire sky.
The "Little Beaver" handicraft shop and the "Little Mountain Shop" stand side by side, in the corner of the fuxue lane, people can create freely here, art grows "savagely" here, stop and go, you will encounter countless unknown surprises.
By June, at the southernmost tip of Zhuzifang, the kapok of the front alley of the academy will fall on the roof of the Temple of Literature, the fall will touch the dust on the top of the old building, and the thunderstorm in the middle of summer will wash them to the ground, as if everything has just begun.
In the replacement of old and new life, the steps of residents who have walked through Zhuzifang countless times will not be forgotten by the bluestone road, and the lanterns at the entrance of the alley will surely record the prosperity and loneliness of the years.
In the Zhuzifang neighborhood, we see new students, but we have never forgotten that those people and things have also come.
