At the foot of Yanshan Mountain, back to the river, is my hometown-Yutian, which is famous for "planting stones to get jade".
There is a beautiful legend in our hometown. On the top of the high Mashan Temple in guo jia cun Township, yutian county, Hebei Province, stands a monument. The monument is1.95m high, 0.795m wide and 0.22m thick. It is engraved with "April of the third year of Qianlong" and "Before the restoration of yutian county, Luancheng County Magistrate, Zhengding Prefecture, Guo Jian Zhangpei, Gong Sheng Ruanda Du Lixiu, Zhang Sheng". The tablet is engraved with the words "the place where the ancients planted jade" and tells a good story.
Looking back for a long time, Mashan is extremely dry. Teenagers are far away from water, making righteous pulp, giving up passers-by, and the listeners are moved. As soon as An Weng arrived, he stoned him after dinner. As the cloud says, "plant this on the top of the mountain and you will get good jade." Yang Boyong acted according to his words. For a few days, the state-owned enterprises operated seamlessly, and Bai Bi was born without a stone. From then on, the land at the foot of the mountain was called Yutian.
Yutian has a long history, and there are precious cultural relics underground. Yutian people are hardworking and brave, and have made amazing achievements in the struggle against feudal rule and foreign aggression.
The beautiful legend of planting jade in Mashan tells the origin of the name of this land, which is more like the eternal truth that people should be honest, kind, kind and compassionate, and good people should be rewarded! It is really worth learning and emulating by our future generations.
One side of the soil and water raises one side, and Yutian Hot Land has raised hundreds of thousands of hardworking, brave and kind people. Back home, villagers who used to make a living from fish and shrimp, weaving seats and baskets now make a living from farming and business; Mountain people who eat melons, pears, peaches, sweet potatoes and persimmons; On the vast plains, some people mainly engage in vegetables, corn and wheat ... It is particularly worth mentioning that Yutian's Chinese cabbage and golden jujube have long been famous.
Take Yutian Chinese Cabbage as an example. It is famous for Jade Cuisine written by Mr. Lu Xun. Many people don't agree with this and think it's nothing unusual. Actually, it is not. For that variety, most of the cabbages we eat are not traditional Yutian cabbages. Most of the truly traditional Chinese cabbages refer to two-package tips and three-package tips, which are small but full and green in color. It is characterized by less water, not bad, easy to preserve and especially sweet to make. Jiaozi, a steamed stuffed bun, is also delicious. Used to make a plate of vinegar-pickled cabbage and stewed cabbage with vermicelli, coupled with roasted red pepper, will definitely make your appetite open and your face sweat. Of course, shredding Chinese cabbage, adding minced garlic, sesame oil, refined salt and aged vinegar, is fragrant and delicious, and is also a good appetizer. Of course, this is just its taste, and its rich nutritional value is even more amazing!
Chinese cabbage is rich in crude fiber, which can not only moisten intestines and detoxify, but also stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis, promote defecation and help digestion. It has a good effect on preventing intestinal cancer. The air is particularly dry in autumn and winter, and the cold wind does great harm to people's skin. Chinese cabbage is rich in vitamin C and vitamin E. Eating more Chinese cabbage can have a good skin care and beauty effect. Scientists at the new york Institute of Hormones in the United States found that the incidence of breast cancer among women in China and Japan is much lower than that of western women, because they often eat cabbage. There are some trace elements in Chinese cabbage, which can help to decompose estrogen related to breast cancer. It is especially suitable for patients with lung heat cough, constipation and kidney disease, and women should also eat more.
About golden jujube, it is even more famous. Because the dried jujube is connected by gold thread when peeled off, the entrance is as sweet as honey and the appearance is like pearl, so it is called golden thread jujube. It is characterized by bright red color, thin skin and thick meat, small core, sweet taste and high nutritional value. It is regarded as a good nourishing product, which has the functions of nourishing the heart, moistening the lungs, harmonizing the spleen and strengthening the stomach, benefiting qi and promoting fluid production, enriching blood and beautifying the face. It is suitable for treating spleen and stomach weakness, qi deficiency, anemia, chlorosis, cough due to lung deficiency, insomnia, fatigue, hypertension, hepatitis, etc.
Of course, this is only a part of our Yutian characteristics. Jingjue Temple in Yutian and Xu Jiujing, the magistrate of Qipin Ancient County, are all witnesses of Yutian's history. Friend, don't you want to visit this precious land of fish?
