Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It's almost 7 o'clock in the evening, when the sun has just set and the lanterns are starting to turn on in Guangzhou, people are coming and going in Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street in Liwan District, from west to east, from the streets to alleys, from Lianxiang Tower to Shangxiajiu Square it's so lively  It's like a celebration.

    Amid the noisy crowd, Ye Wei dragged his suitcase and watched.

    There are many shops on both sides of the arcade street, each with a time-honored brand. The streets are dotted with classical bronze statues that tell the story of Xiguan style, herbal tea stalls, children, Miss Xiguan, etc. Stalls and ghost vendors are everywhere, selling clothes, snacks,  Selling this and that is dizzying.

    marvelous!  This is one of his favorite aspects of China. Westerners who have never lived or traveled in China will not understand why every Chinese city is said to be a city that never sleeps. The farmer's market night market in Los Angeles cannot compare to what he sees in front of him.

    This is not a small enclosed area, nor is it the same as good areas like Brentwood or Beverly Hills. This is the city center, but you don¡¯t have to worry about being robbed or surrounded by a group of thieves, illegal immigrants or homeless people when walking on the street.  Live, with a gun pointed at your head.

    ¡°If he were walking in downtown La, or the Civic Center in San Francisco, my mother¡¯s hometown, his backpack and suitcase would have been gone long ago, and his life might have been lost.  So this excitement is really cool, especially after coming back from Kenya, it becomes even more precious.

    Ye Wei is a "China Hand", but he is far more than just a China Hand. In his heart, he has dual nationality of the United States and China.  Many people he knew had dual nationality, Lily was British and American, Nina was Bulgarian and Canadian, Lev was French and American but he was not.

    Whenever China launches this policy, he will apply immediately.

    Ye Wei feels that he is very lucky. Since he was a child, he has not had the troubles and confusions that Chinese people have. This is all due to the good education of his parents!  It allowed him to truly understand his hometown and root culture since he was a child, which became one of the sources of self-confidence.

    Looking for the long-lost aroma, I walked into a small alley and saw various billboards labeled "Guilin Rice Noodles", "Clay Rice", "Sugar Water", "Fish Skin", etc.

    There were not many tourists in the alley, so Ye Wei did not go into any shop, but went straight to a tricycle snack stall.  He likes to eat these ghost stalls, and his mouth watered when he looked at the fish eggs, beef offal, fish skin and other authentic Guangzhou snacks on the cart.

    After swallowing, he gave the stall owner a 50-yuan note and started taking action!

    I took a bamboo stick and skewered the fish eggs, bit into the first one and ate it. After three years, it was as delicious as the Guangzhou fish eggs in my memory, chewy and chewy, just like  Peeing beef balls from "God of Cookery".

    Ye Wei couldn't help but sigh: "That's right"

    That¡¯s the taste, that¡¯s the feeling, right!

    He closed his eyes in enjoyment and shook his head a little while eating. He had tasted delicacies from all over the world, but when compared delicacies are also one of his favorite aspects of China.  He could live in Guangzhou for a whole year without being too fat to walk.

    "Beautiful boy, this one seems to be from a fake one?" the grandmother, who was holding the banknotes in her right hand, suddenly said.

    "Scared?" Ye Wei stopped when he was about to bite the second fish egg.  Grandma looks to be in her sixties. Although her hair is half white, she is not very old. She is wearing a purple T-shirt and black wide pants, exuding a spirit unique to Chinese women.

    "I'm afraid, this picture is just fake." Grandma was a little angry. She glanced at the tall tattoos on her hands from the corner of her eyes and said, "Evil ghost."

    Ye Wei probably understood that grandma said that the money was counterfeit. She had exchanged some RMB at the airport before, and that the money was the taxi driver's change.  He wanted to explain: "Grandma" But he didn't know how to say it for a while. His Cantonese was very limited. Most of it came from Hong Kong movies, and a small part came from his life around him and the days he lived in Scarborough.

    Being called grandma, and seeing that this guy wanted to deny it, the middle-aged and elderly woman suddenly became angry, pointed at him and cursed: "You devil, you have beautiful eyebrows and good looks, but you have sand lice!"

    "I don't mean it!" Ye Wei apologized quickly. He didn't want to quarrel with grandma, but he also understood that grandma would be angry after working so hard to make some money and then receiving counterfeit money.  He had no choice but to explain in Mandarin: "I'm sorry, grandma, I just collected this money from the taxi driver. I'll give you another one."

    "I don't know how to listen to you cooking winter melon!" Grandma became even more angry and asked passers-by to help: "Why, my friend is running away! It's a waste of money!"

    Ye Wei twisted the string of fish eggs, took out her wallet, took out a hundred-dollar bill, handed it to grandma, and said in broken Cantonese: "Use this."

    Although grandma took the money, she decided that this friend was not a good person because of those tattoos, so she examined the banknote carefully with suspicion.

    ??"This was redeemed from the airport, it must be real." Ye Wei spoke in Mandarin, put the 50 yuan back into his wallet, and continued to eat delicious fish eggs.

    The matter has attracted the attention of people around. First, a local middle-aged uncle came over. While looking at the young people who were just passing by, he asked: "What's the matter, pretty girl?" Grandma was annoyed.  He said, "What a ghost, Luo. I'm more fake than Zhang. I think I'm Lulu."

    A few diners passing by stopped to watch, and they were all a little surprised at how tall and handsome the young man was, so they took a few more glances.

    But when I saw clearly the tattoos on his hands and small arms that were not covered by his red short-sleeved T-shirt, which read, "I am guilty of God, there is nothing to pray for."  The melons are spread out, and there are small holes cut above and below the knees of the jeans. They are either rotten or fat.

    "Haha." Ye Wei laughed, feeling that this incident was very interesting, and also remembered the "Uncle Bus Incident", which was a Hong Kong video that became very popular on YouTube this year.

    Two more girls who looked like high school students gathered around. He thought he was going to be recognized this time, but no, no one recognized him.

    "Beautiful girl, what are you talking about?" the middle-aged uncle asked, dissatisfied with the laughter of this bad guy but suppressing his tone.

    Ye Wei explained to everyone seriously: "No, this is a misunderstanding. I just came to Guangzhou and came to Shangxiajiu for dinner. The fake money was given to me by the airport taxi driver. I don't know. I have already  I gave it to my pretty girl."

    ??????????????????????????????????????Everyone who knew Mandarin understood it clearly, and saw that grandma was indeed holding a 100 yuan note in her hand, and a few people immediately left.  The middle-aged uncle translated to my grandma: "Beautiful girl, we are not connected to each other, we are connected to a taxi driver Kunzuojie."

    "What do I know about Zhang Jianliu?" Grandma couldn't believe it.

    Ye Wei looked at the passers-by with confusion and asked them what grandma meant.  One of the two girls with an oval face said boldly: "She is doubting the authenticity of the money." He nodded: "That's understandable. Girl pretty girl, please help me tell my pretty aunt that I  I really don¡¯t mean to lie, it¡¯s actually very simple, just keep an eye on me, pretty girl, just go to any store to check it with a banknote detector.¡±

    "Okay." The girl's voice was a little excited: "I asked you to go check the money. Let me verify him." Another girl with a round face was peeking at the handsome boy. She felt that this guy looked like a celebrity model. No idol he could think of could compare with him.  , so tall, is he an athlete?

    Grandma accepted this suggestion, let everyone take a look at the ghost boy, and walked to the "Fat Mom's Claypot Rice" next to it.

    "Thank you everyone." Ye Wei thanked him with a smile and then took action!  He took another bamboo stick and ate a bunch of beef offal.  Everyone around looked surprised, and no one tried to stop him. The middle-aged uncle said: "Feed the young boy" Ye Wei hurriedly said: "Everyone counted, I bought five skewers! This is the second skewer."

    The two girls were looking at him secretly, whispering to each other, "Hang-up? What's the shape? The head-to-head distance seems to speak English? Is the hem 'enough'?"

    Ye Wei didn¡¯t finish the bunch of beef offal. Grandma came back soon. Most of her anger had gone away. She quickly gave him some change and complained: ¡°It¡¯s better to get a taxi.¡±

    The matter was successfully resolved, and the middle-aged uncle and other well-meaning people left.  The two girls nodded while discussing, and the oval-faced girl stepped forward and asked, "Handsome guy, which celebrity are you like?" The handsome boy smiled, and the round-faced girl said excitedly, "Is it from "Come on! Good Man"?"

    "No" Ye Weiyi was stunned. Is that a movie?  TV drama?  I heard that a phenomenal movie called "Crazy Stone" is currently being released in the Mainland.  Not being recognized, he felt a little disappointed this time and shrugged: "I'm not a star, my name is Ye Wei, the Ye of Ye, the only Wei."

    That movie genius, Brother Wei, do you have any impressions?

    Not a star.  The two girls couldn't hide their disappointment, but they always felt that this person was extraordinary, so devilishYe Wei?  It¡¯s like I¡¯ve heard it before.

    "Hey, it's nice to meet you." Seeing them thinking, Ye Wei had the habit of teasing girls again, so he couldn't help but smile: "Two pretty girls, I said my name, but you didn't say it, isn't that rude?  ¡±

    "Haha." They looked at each other and laughed, without saying their names.  Since he is not a celebrity, this muscular man with tattoos may be Young and Dangerous They dare not pay attention to his flirting, but they don't want to leave like this.

    Grandma looked at the laozi with a cold and wary look, and reminded: "Sister, you should ignore me, Mr. Didao is inhumane."

    "I'm not a bad person." Ye Wei shrugged and made a face. In fact, he was really not just teasing girls: "That's it, I want to take some travel photos of Guangzhou, and I want you to be my pet, right here, just  Now, can you take a set of street photos?¡±

      Seeing them stunned, he explained: "i-think girls are one of the important features of every city. Girls in Guangzhou have completely different feelings from girls in Los Angeles and New York. Girls in Guangzhou have a unique beauty of southern China."  Temperament. You guys are great and will be very photogenic.¡±

    "Are you from abroad?" the round-faced girl asked, and they all heard his spontaneous English.

    "Yes, but I am Chinese." Ye Weixiao said, "How about? Just take a few pictures?"

    The two girls whispered a few words, laughed happily, and walked quickly out of the alley, ignoring "Ye Wei", saying that he was a pyramid schemer.

    "Hey! OK." Ye Wei watched them helplessly, what's wrong with me?  Grandma drove him away and said: "You can open it when the food is ready. Block the sun so that no one dares to help." He didn't quite understand what he heard, but he took the suitcase and left knowingly, and continued eating elsewhere!

    ¡­¡­

    That night, Ye Wei had a full meal at Shangxiajiu, eating various stall snacks along the way. Finally, he went to Yinji Rice Roll and had a bowl of chicken porridge, beef rice roll and shrimp rice roll.  After eating almost to full capacity, he went to the hotel he had reserved, the White Swan Hotel in Guangzhou, with a satisfied stomach.

    The tattoo brought him a lot of trouble, and everyone seemed to be wary of him.  He knew that it was due to differences in social attitudes. The United States had certain reservations about tattoos, but people with tattoos in China were usually not good people, so it was most normal to have this caution.  I have to wear long-sleeved clothes when I go out tomorrow. I can't help my fingers. In such hot weather, I can't wear gloves.

    Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the Pearl River View Executive Suite, Ye Wei looked at the bright city night view outside, with beautiful cruise ships passing slowly on the Pearl River.

    Compared to the summer of 2003, the whole city has seen new development, and the ancient country is glowing with more and more vitality, which is great.

    The current big ship is sailing in the long river of history, sailing towards a better future, endlessly.

    This is the charm of China, and he wants to experience more.
