Prose from foreign wives to Zhifu

I am a foreigner, because I admire Dahan's bravery and sense of responsibility. I married the eldest brother of Yantai, and I followed my husband from Henan in the Central Plains to his hometown of Yantai. The first time I entered my husband's house, I made a lot of jokes because I didn't understand Yantai dialect, which was always cited as a joke by my aunt and aunt.

As soon as she entered the door that day, her mother-in-law came face to face and said, "It's a long journey to marry us from Yantai. Come on, Nana will give you a broken head to eat. " I wondered in my heart: "What is a broken monitor?" A plate of strawberries will be served later. I smiled. "This is not a strawberry? How to call a broken monitor? " Make my aunt, aunt, aunt laugh together. They explained that strawberry is a written language and "broken class head" is a hometown dialect.

Eat at noon and cook jiaozi. When Jiaozi came to the table, her sister-in-law asked, "Sister-in-law, are you taboo?" I thought I was asking if I had any taboos, so I quickly replied smartly, "I am Han, and I have no taboos." Everyone laughed. After a while, everyone got a small dish of vinegar, but I didn't. I like jiaozi who is dipped in vinegar very much, so I said, "I want to be jealous, too." Everyone burst into laughter: "Who are you jealous of? We Yantai people call vinegar taboo. " I think: it is said that Minnan people are very particular, and this Zhifu person is also very particular! Everyone laughed again.

After dinner, a neighbor came to see me, looked at me for a long time and said, "Aunt, your new wife is very thin, unlike your family." I didn't understand and asked, "What?" The whole family laughed. "Praise you and say that your skin is white." My mother-in-law explained. I bowed my head in embarrassment and blushed. My sister-in-law said, "Do you know what darkness is? It is that the skin is very black, and the mother-in-law is like a mother-in-law, and the words are very black. " I said, "Is it dark?" Made everyone laugh again.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, my brother-in-law asked, "Sister-in-law, we are going to take a bath in the sea. Are you going? " As soon as I heard it was a bath, I quickly said, "I don't take a bath, I don't take a bath." My mother-in-law said, "Don't you want to see the difference between the sea in Yantai and the sea in Xiamen?" They went swimming at the seaside. Go with them. " Oh, I just realized that "sea bath" is swimming! So I found my bathing suit and followed them quickly.

There is a fish for dinner in the evening. It suddenly occurred to me that eating fish in Xiamen is not allowed to turn over, so I dare not move chopsticks easily. As a result, we ate one side of the fish and everyone turned it over. He said, "Come here, come here." Oh, I suddenly understand that finding another word to replace it is a taboo, just like jealousy is a "taboo".

Just then, my husband came back and saw my embarrassment. He quickly said, "What are you doing?" ? Take us foreigners to drive Ang? "I didn't understand. Sister-in-law said, "Where is it? This is just a little joke. "It took me a long time to understand what Kaiang meant.

In a blink of an eye, I have been in Yantai for more than 30 years, and I have regarded myself as a Zhifu person. I am grateful for my second hometown when I think of the little things I just came to Yantai. It was Yantai who accepted a daughter-in-law from afar! Thank you Yantai mother for her generosity!

Now I will think of the first time when husband and wife stood by the seaside in Yantai with their children. The fiery red sun spewed out from the east, and the sea was gilded with gold by the morning glow, and the waves were rough. Boats and ports are inlaid with Phnom Penh, which is as beautiful as a fairy tale. Looking at all this, thinking that I will live in Zhifu's arms, my heart is drunk! My husband said to me, "Zhifu Bay is my mother's harbor and Yantai Mountain is my father's mountain. When I was a child, I grew up eating the aquatic products in Zhifu Bay. Now that I am back, I must do my best to serve Zhifu Bay. " I said, "From now on, I will love Zhifu as my hometown, and I will dedicate my life to Zhifu Bay." We have been teaching for 26 years since then.

Now I have learned many Yantai dialects, such as calling bighead carp "white and blue clip", flounder "fish", horseface fish "skinned wolf", and some clams "ga" such as "flying ga" and "Mao ga". Some dialects are vivid, such as tickling, which is called "one stroke and one style". There are also some dialects that gradually withdraw from the historical stage as young people learn Putonghua. For example, matches used to be called "matches" and "holding lamps", but now they are called matches. Strawberries are rarely called "broken heads".

At the beginning, the students praised us as good teachers, like brothers and sisters; Gradually with the passage of time, students began to say that we are good teachers like our parents; We don't care about these names, just preach, teach and dispel doubts. Until one day, we found that freshmen began to call us good teachers like grandparents! Ah, we are elders! Our youth and prime of life slipped away inadvertently. We burned silently for 26 years with our own labor and sweat, burning the best time of our lives and illuminating the way forward for our classmates. We are very satisfied! For returning to the embrace of Zhifu's mother, we thank God's love and the country's reform and opening up policy! I would also like to thank my fellow villagers in Zhifu for accepting me as a foreign daughter-in-law.
