Tianshui rumor said: Qinan brown seed water hemp.

Clean water, what a wonderful name, what a wonderful place!

Such a place is indeed the name of its name. There is a river with blue waves, which is called the Ngau Tau river. In such a place, because there are clear rivers, there is naturally a good linen. If the water is a turquoise, which is hidden in the northeast corner of Qinzhou City, it is a bunch of fresh and tender hairs on the turquoise.

In fact, as early as in the long "Book of Songs" era, hemp, as a traditional crop, has become the raw material of people's clothing.

This kind of plant far from the Book of Songs era is still widely planted in the Qingshui area.

The emergence of a pair of hemp shoes is really from the hands, unlike the shoes and sneakers on the production line so boring and boring, it is immersed in the technology of light, is a footnote of agricultural civilization, is a period of inheritance.

One summer, I met a poor family in Cao Chuan Township, Qingshui County, and saw a long process of becoming a pair of shoes.

The host is fifty, honest and honest.

He used to plant seeds every year, not to eat hemp seed oil, but to wear flax shoes.

The autumn sun shines in this courtyard, quiet and beautiful.

He buried himself in the sunshine after the big tree was filtered, and made a pair of hemp shoes carefully.

First put the long plaited plait into a flat case and lay it on the bottom.

At this time, he looked up and said with a grain of wood: "this is called the thousand layer floor.

In this way, the road is long and the feet are comfortable.

Then, like planting seedlings, planted a slightly thicker hemp rope on the side of the sole, and made the upper, string up one by one, and then make the bridge of the nose.

At this point, it is necessary to drum up the shoes with a kind of name of the water, which means the shoe last, a prototype of a pair of shoes, but it is far from enough. Like a fine piece of art, it needs polishing.

The old man found out a crochet knitted fabric specially used for knitting, hooking out the shoes and ears of the braid, and dyeing before working.

Shoes become successful.

The old man is old, but she has no eyes, and has exquisite hands like women.

He said, "if you are used to it, where will your hands be?"

Those hands with a knife carved texture, when picking up a hook to complete these movements, the forehead emit sweat.

He wiped his cuff, and laughed, "too tight!"

Ordinarily, he must have done it in a courtyard alone.

It will be more comfortable and handy.

He also took out a couple of pairs of shoes that he had saved at home.

There are tippers on the tip of the head, which are called "red mother". They are called "loving mothers and their relatives". There are "single whip saviours", each with moral implications. Some styles even contain an ancient story or legend.

Originally, their thoughts and thoughts were hidden in a pair of shoes.

At this time, when we look at it again, we will find that the greatest culture is often hidden in remote and remote folk.

I do not know that in 759 ad, Du Fu, the great poet who left "Tianma" and "the sleeves reveal two cubits", is wearing a pair of hemp shoes in Qinzhou.

It is said that when Ji Hongchang was guarding Longnan in that year, he once held a martial arts competition in Tianshui, and the last prize was a pair of plain hemp shoes.

I do not know whether this is true or false, but I think that the ancients both had the saying "leather skin is good, and Mogui is inferior to Ma". This is a respect for Ma, a respect for a craft, and a respect for the kindness of the earth.

We forget the modern people, we should learn to respect the craft and the earth.
