When we arrived in the hot sun, the girl who picked us up from the B&B was already waiting for us. When we stepped into the hall, the breeze with the subtle fragrance of wood blew on our faces. The century-old Hui-style beams and pillars contrasted with the contemporary design. The girl stroked the carved window lattices with her fingertips and told the story of five generations guarding this old house. The moonlight in southern Anhui had not yet climbed over the horse-head wall. Seeing that we were coming back late, she offered us water and said, "It's good to be a little tipsy, but it's better to quench your thirst." It was very considerate and lovely. The bowl of noodles with toppings in the morning light was so fresh that I missed the runny fried eggs that I hadn't tasted yet, which added a lovely blank space to this ink painting-like stop.
