Thay vì tìm người cùng mình nói chuyện, chi bằng tìm người cùng mình im lặng.
//
与其找一个人陪自己聊天，不如找一个人陪自己沉默。
//
Instead of finding someone to chat with you, it is better to find someone to keep silent with you.

Đồng niên vô tri đáng yêu, thiếu niên vô tri đáng cười, thanh niên vô tri đáng thương, trung niên vô tri đáng tiếc, lão niên vô tri đáng buồn.

童年的无知可爱，少年的无知可笑，青年的无知可怜，中年的无知可叹，老年的无知可悲。

Childhood ignorance is lovely, juvenile ignorance is ridiculous, youth ignorance is pitiful, middle-aged ignorance is deplorable, and old-age ignorance is pathetic.

Before leaving Haining, Jiaxing, we dropped by a place called Yanguan Old Town. It was raining a bit while I walked through some old houses, the Qiantang River Dam, Jin Young’s college, the former residence of Wang Guowei. Most doors were closed, and there were only a few tourists here. It was a pity. I wished to see more inside of the town.
Then we really left Zhejiang to come back to Anhui province. On the way, the tour guide introduced to us a dry fruit called wuyanguo (5-eye fruit) which later I found out was called Nepali hog plum. I tasted really good.
We had a late lunch at 2PM somewhere in Anhui, then we went to see another UNESCO world heritage site called Xidi Ancient Village at 4PM. This place must have been the best place of this trip.
After seeing a nice welcome dance, I was strolling around the village. There were art students with their sketchbooks, easels and tools which made this village so romantic.
I saw them drying sausages and ducks on the walls. I then went to the hill nearby and looked down the village. It was peaceful here.
On the way out, I found a student card someone dropped. I couldn’t find the guy so I gave it to someone instead.
This was the first time I looked carefully at the Huizhou architecture: white wall, black tile, arch over the gate, and horse-head wall.
Because we had to be present at the airport early in the evening, we had an early dinner at 6:30PM. I also tried for the first time the popular boba milk tea ice cream.
At 7:30PM, I said goodbye to Anhui at Huangshan Tunxi Airport and waited for the flight to take me home to Ho Chi Minh City.
