Lingnan Story Guangfu Story Lingnan is located at the southernmost tip of China and consists of mainland and islands. The mainland part includes Guangdong and Guangxi, and the island Buffon includes Hainan Island and Hainan Islands.

Although Lingnan is not as gentle and gentle as Jiangnan, Lingnan has given birth to a unique Lingnan culture with its unique geographical location.

Lingnan culture is diverse, mainly Guangxi culture and Cantonese culture, while Cantonese culture is divided into Guangfu culture, Hakka culture and Chaoshan culture.

Fortunately, I was born in the Lingnan area and have been influenced by Guangfu culture since I was a child.

My childhood memory is that there are many delicious foods in Guangzhou. When I was a little older, I discovered the sign of "eating in Guangzhou" and thought about it.

There is no shortage of special snacks from the beginning to the end of the year.

During the Spring Festival, every household will make various kinds of oil fruits, which are fried until they are crispy and fragrant. When I was a child, whenever my grandmother and mother would make oil fruits together, they would always cook them with my cousins ??in a leisurely manner.

Give it a try, because every time at this time, we are inevitably scolded a few times.

However, we are all members of the death squad, so when we turn around, we will continue our mischief. In the end, grandma will always use her trump card, pull out a bamboo and say to us: "Which of you wants to eat the rattan?"

Braised pork?" We realized what was going on, so we turned around, stopped, and went out to be crazy again.

Now, when I grow up, I don’t know how to cook youguo, I am only responsible for eating it, and my grandma rarely cooks it herself, but she will still come back to the world after our begging.

No way, who told us to be so greedy?

During the Lantern Festival, glutinous rice balls are indispensable. Whether we make them ourselves or buy them, on this day, we must eat glutinous rice balls.

Someone once said: "If you can't eat glutinous rice balls during the Lantern Festival, it will be a difficult year." Although I don't believe it, doesn't it illustrate the inheritance of the custom of eating glutinous rice balls?

Eat glutinous rice balls during the Lantern Festival, eat cold food during the Qingming Festival, eat rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival, etc. You can never forget to comfort your stomach during the big and small festivals throughout the year.

During festivals, one dish that is always on the table is chicken. People always say: "There is no feast without chicken." To be honest, no matter what festival it is, there will always be a plate of chicken on the table, no matter how other dishes change.

Customs are an important part of Lingnan culture, and snacks in each place are an important part of Lingnan culture.

Guangzhou's pork belly chicken, Heyuan's rice noodles, Meizhou's grapefruit, Chaoshan's barley sticks, Zhanjiang's oranges, Guangzhou's Zengcheng's lychees, etc. are all famous in China.

Su Shi once said: "If you eat three hundred lychees a day, you will grow up to be a Lingnan native." It can be seen that the temptation of lychees is great!

And I, very fortunately, was born and grew up in the land of lychees.

Every year when summer comes, I can enjoy the lychees from our hometown.

In fact, the famous lychee at home and abroad is the second generation of green lychee.

There is also a legend about the origin of hanging green lychees.

Legend has it that the green lychee used to be just an ordinary lychee. Although it is also very delicious, it certainly cannot be compared with the green lychee.

Legend has it that one day, the fairy He Xiangu in the sky was attached to her hometown, so she went home to see her home. Her home was the house she had in the mortal world before she returned to heaven.

She fell asleep unknowingly, and when it was dawn, because the heaven was also going to court early, she hurriedly left a green ribbon on a lychee tree.

In summer, people are surprised to find that the tree is very thick and has a green ribbon-like shell wrapped around the lychee shell, so it is also known as the hanging green lychee.

The green lychees are also particularly succulent and crystal clear.

In fact, different varieties of lychees have different characteristics, different tastes and endless fun.

Lingnan, my hometown, everything is so beautiful!

In the south of Guangfu City in Yongnian, there is Nanqiao Village. On the west side of Nanqiao and on the north bank of the Fuyang River, there is a Lu Xian Temple (called Lu Gongtang by locals).

Here, the scenery is picturesque and it is one of the famous gardens in Guangfu.

Every spring, when the flowers are in full bloom, there is an endless stream of people from around here to enjoy the flowers.

In the west wing of Lu Gongtang, there are two peonies, four or five feet high, which were bought from Caozhou in the sixth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty.

This peony is different from other peonies in that it has two flowers on one flower; one is dark red, the other is light white, and they are divided into two halves, which are charming and beautiful, just like two sisters.

Therefore, people praised her as "Er Qiao Peony".

Once, Wang Gui, the prefect of Guangfu, saw the flowers of "Two Peonies" blooming as big as the mouth of a bowl. They were so bright and colorful that he impromptuly wrote a couplet and engraved it on both sides of the doorpost. The couplet was: Throw away the three drunkennesses.

The building is high, to ferry sentient beings to the north of Hebei; to lock up Erqiao Huahao, there is no husband in Jiangdong.

Why do people like "Two Peonies" so much?

Because she has a touching story.

Legend has it that there was a scholar named Wu Zhentian in the East Street of this city. He was knowledgeable and helpful, and was known as "Wu Shanren". People all over Guangping Prefecture knew him and enjoyed high prestige among the masses.

Once he had three identical dreams for three days in a row: He went to Caozhou for a visit, and two fairies stood under an unflowered peony plant on the west side of the garden. They frequently and politely asked him to marry his two sisters.

He was brought to Nanqiao, Guangfu to settle down in Lv Gong Temple.

He felt that this dream was very strange and there must be a reason for it, so he told the villagers.

The villagers all believed that the fairy's dream was a good sign, and they asked him to go to Caozhou Garden to see what happened in person.

Everyone collected enough money for him to travel and asked him to go to Caozhou before the Qingming Festival in March of the sixth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty.

Strangely enough, Wu Zhentian had never been to Caozhou, but after arriving in Caozhou, everything he saw was exactly the same as what he saw in his dream.
