Jianshui is a name that sounds a little different from Yunnan's traditional style. I drove thousands of kilometers to its door and realized that it was actually a small county under the jurisdiction of a minority autonomous prefecture. It wasn't until I actually entered it that I found that it was lined with ancient buildings just like its name. Like water overflowing
Before coming here, I had seen the introduction of this B&B by chance. At that time, I was deeply impressed by the old pomegranate tree in the courtyard and the compliments of the proprietress’s cooking skills. At the same time, I was also yearning for the proprietor’s previous experience in making pottery, so I decisively booked two days.
first meeting
The location indicated by the navigation was disconnected. After contacting the boss, we parked in a large parking lot. After parking the car, we saw a man with flowery arms smiling by the wall. After greeting him, he enthusiastically led him into the yard. Beyond the stairs was the main entrance of the B&B.

Upon entering the door, there is a screen wall with various bonsais and flowers. Before entering the room, the boss invites you to sit down and drink a few cups of Kung Fu tea. This scene appeared frequently in the following days. Everyone really loves tea.
The first thing the boss asked was why we came to Jianshui. In fact, my wife and I had watched "Daily Life of Literature" and were attracted by Jianshui's quietness and peace in the episode where we met Teacher Yu Jian. The boss also knew a little about Teacher Jian. They should all be people who like literature.
This B&B was renovated from the old mansion of the government office more than 400 years ago. It is the third entrance of the three-entry courtyard. The place is not big, but it is very charming. The room we stayed in at night has been fully modernized and improved, and some are available downstairs. When you open the window in the laundry and drying room, you can see the old tower of Yuhuang Pavilion and take a closer look.
Life
During the two days he lived in the hospital, my son spent most of the time downstairs chatting and having fun with his boss, his wife, his brother, his brother-in-law, his sister-in-law, his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Yes, he has figured out all the relationships between the boss and his family, just like family members. Generally, you can feel as comfortable here as if you were at home
It’s a pity that the B&B does not provide dinner every morning. There is special grass sprout rice noodles every morning, and here you can sleep until you wake up naturally. Even if you wake up at 11 o’clock, you can still eat a bowl of freshly made delicious rice noodles. I remember that I have to hold on after 8 o’clock. How can I feel sorry for the steamed buns and hard-boiled eggs that I eat when I wake up?
The first meal we had when we arrived was the Xiaobo BBQ recommended by the B&B. It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the B&B. In fact, it is not far from various places in the city. You can rest assured and take your time. We sat down to have a barbecue and waited for about 1 and a half hours before leaving. If you order it, you may have to wait 2 hours, but the moment the barbecue comes into your mouth, I think it is worth the wait and the price is very reasonable. I think it is really good.
I didn’t want to eat barbecue the next day. I passed by the vegetable market and saw some wild mushrooms. I wanted to buy some mushrooms and go to the B&B to cook for myself. My cooking skills are also good, but I was afraid that not handling the mushrooms well would affect the rest of the trip. So I decided to go to the local area, which is also famous. The guests who had packed up at the restaurant and went out for fun had not yet returned to their rooms, leaving us alone as a family. We sat under the pomegranate tree, drank wine, admired the moon, and had a delicious meal like the ancients. During this period, the pomegranates on our heads ripened and fell. It was a rare experience. one
