那是个寒冷的冬日傍晚，落日的斜阳在窗棂上投下了长长的影子，城市渐渐安静下来，只有偶尔一两辆车经过，脚步声在静默的街道上回荡。在福州的老城区，这个被时间遗忘的角落，仿佛是时光的凝视者，静静地守望着历史的痕迹。突然，面前出现了一座类似欧式建筑，斑驳的外墙上生长着青苔，显得庄严而古老。我知道，这里就是那家神秘的“ITADE地板美术馆”。这个晚上，它将成为一场别样的圣诞仪式，让人陶醉其中。
It was a cold winter evening, and the setting sun cast long shadows on the window frames. The city gradually quieted down, with only one or two cars passing by occasionally, and footsteps echoing on the silent streets. In the old urban area of Fuzhou, this forgotten corner is like a gazer of time, quietly watching the traces of history. Suddenly, a European style building appeared in front of me, with moss growing on the mottled exterior walls, appearing solemn and ancient. I know, this is the mysterious ITADE Flooring Art Museum. This evening, it will become a unique Christmas ceremony, making people intoxicated.
推开沉重的木门，一股淡淡的香气迎面扑来，似乎是木头的气息，混合着岁月的味道。里面的陈设看起来像一间工坊，墙壁与地板都饰有历经沧桑的深色木纹，那些纹路仿佛是时间的印记，记录着岁月的故事。几位中年男子坐在里面低声交谈，橘黄的灯光打在他们认真的侧脸上，映照出深思熟虑的表情。
Pushing open the heavy wooden door, a faint aroma rushed towards me, seemingly the scent of wood mixed with the scent of time. The furnishings inside look like a workshop, with walls and floors adorned with dark wood patterns that have weathered history. These patterns seem like imprints of time, recording the stories of time. Several middle-aged men sat inside and whispered, with orange lights shining on their serious profile faces, reflecting thoughtful expressions.
“您来了，我们正准备开始今晚的木地板设计分享会。”一个人站起身来，他应该就是馆长江久学了。
"You're here, we're just about to start tonight's wooden floor design sharing meeting." A person stood up, probably Guan Changjiang Jiuxue.
我找了个位置坐下，茶几上摆放着一本厚重的图册，上面展示着各种不同的木料和木纹。江久学为我翻开了那本图册，图册中的每一页都仿佛是一张艺术品，展现出木地板的多样性和美丽。、
I found a seat to sit down, and on the coffee table was a thick picture book displaying various types of wood and grain. Jiang Jiuxue opened the picture album for me, and every page in the album seemed like a piece of art, showcasing the diversity and beauty of wooden flooring.
“每一种木头都有其生长的历史，选择和设计木地板就是在讲述一个故事。”江久学的声音低沉而富有磁性，他的话语充满了对木材和工艺的热爱。
"Every type of wood has its own history of growth, and choosing and designing wooden flooring is telling a story." Jiang Jiuxue's voice was low and magnetic, and his words were full of love for wood and craftsmanship.
我静静地聆听，仿佛被带回到了过去。我看见广袤的原始森林，古老的大树深深扎根在大地，它们的年轮承载着岁月的沉淀，成为了珍贵的木地板。这让我感受到生命中那些美好而神秘的连接，每一块木地板都是一个故事的开始。
I listened quietly, as if being taken back to the past. I see vast primitive forests, ancient trees deeply rooted in the earth, their rings carrying the sediment of time, becoming precious wooden floors. This makes me feel the beautiful and mysterious connections in life, and every wooden floor is the beginning of a story.
“我们先来看看这块槭木......”江久学的讲解声将我的思绪带回了现实。我看见他指着一块木板，上面有一道狭长的暗纹。
"Let's take a look at this maple tree first..." Jiang Jiuxue's explanation brought my thoughts back to reality. I saw him pointing to a wooden board with a narrow dark stripe on it.
“这道纹路记载了它过去的故事......”他的声音突然模糊起来，我感觉整个空间都变得朦胧而虚无。我仿佛被引导进入了某种过去的回忆。
"This pattern records its past story..." His voice suddenly blurred, and I felt the entire space become hazy and void. I seem to be guided into some kind of past memory.
我看见一个映着夕阳的湖边，一棵高大的槭树伫立在那里。它的树干上有一道狭长的裂痕，一只白鹭站在裂口边梳理着翅膀。这一切都那么静谧，却在无声地述说着某种悲伤的往事......
I saw a tall maple tree standing by a lake reflecting the sunset. There is a narrow crack on its trunk, and a white egret stands by the crack combing its wings. All of this is so quiet, yet silently recounting some sad past
“先生，您还好吗？”江久学的声音将我的意识唤回现实。
"Sir, are you okay?" Jiang Jiuxue's voice awakened my consciousness back to reality.
“我很好，请继续。”我努力克制住内心涌起的感动，这神秘的记忆从何而来，我并不得而知。
"I'm fine, please continue." I tried to restrain the surging emotion in my heart, but I don't know where this mysterious memory comes from.
接下来，江久学详细介绍了木地板的制作过程，他娓娓道出每个步骤中匠人的心血与技巧。我感受到他对这传统工艺的热爱，以及对每一种木料独特故事的尊重。
Next, Jiang Jiuxue gave a detailed introduction to the production process of wooden flooring, and he recounted the craftsman's hard work and skills in each step. I feel his love for this traditional craft and respect for the unique stories of each type of wood.
“您看，这块拼接而成的圣诞地板，就像是一个温暖的故事。”他指着墙上一块嵌有圣诞元素图案的地板说道。
"You see, this spliced Christmas floor is like a warm story," he said, pointing to a floor embedded with Christmas element patterns on the wall.
我静静凝视着那美丽的图案，仿佛看见热闹的圣诞集市，一家人欢聚在烛光下，这些生动场景就隐藏在木料的纹路里，需要我们用心去发现、解读。
I silently gazed at the beautiful pattern, as if seeing the bustling Christmas market where the family gathered under the candlelight. These vivid scenes were hidden in the patterns of the wood, and we needed to discover and interpret them with our hearts.
当这个神奇的分享会结束时，江久学送我到门口，夜色已悄然降临。
When this magical sharing event ended, Jiang Jiuxue escorted me to the door, and night had quietly fallen.
“希望您能通过木地板的故事，感受到生命中那些美妙的连接。”他说。
"I hope you can experience the wonderful connections in life through the story of wooden flooring," he said.
我谢过他，望着那座古老建筑的剪影，一种难言的感动在心中翻滚。也许我们每个人的心中，都隐藏着那样一个神秘的空间，承载着生命中不为人知的过往与连接，需要我们用一颗虔诚的心去发现、倾听。在这个寒冷的冬夜，我感到了一份特殊的温暖，一份来自木地板背后的故事的温暖，这个分享会让我更加珍视生命中的每一份美好，每一段连接。或许，这正是圣诞季节所要传达的信息——关爱、分享、感悟。这个夜晚，我留下了美丽的回忆，带着对木地板艺术的更深理解，回家的路上，我心中充满了感恩和温暖。
I thanked him and looked at the silhouette of that ancient building, feeling an indescribable emotion rolling in my heart. Perhaps in each of us, there is a mysterious space hidden in our hearts, carrying the unknown past and connections of life. We need to discover and listen with a devout heart. On this cold winter night, I feel a special warmth, a warmth from the story behind the wooden floor. This sharing will make me cherish every beauty and connection in life even more. Perhaps this is the message that the Christmas season is meant to convey - love, sharing, and insight. This night, I left beautiful memories, with a deeper understanding of the art of wooden flooring. On the way home, my heart was filled with gratitude and warmth.
每一次的分享会，都让所有工匠们认识和体会到了欧洲木地板及其制作过程，制作工艺，这也是让江久学最有成就感的地方。ITADE美术馆，也让越来也多的人感受到艺术与生活的贯通。
Every sharing session allowed all craftsmen to understand and experience European wooden flooring and its production process, as well as its craftsmanship. This is also the most fulfilling aspect for Jiang Jiuxue. The ITADE Art Museum has also made more and more people feel the connection between art and life.
