Chapter 165

"Still eating, be careful of becoming a fat woman." Lu Dongjie picked up the tea cup and took a sip, smiling and saying,

"Hmph, you obviously eat more than me." Mi Xue glanced at him dissatisfied, and then said softly: "The terrible food I've eaten in the hotel these days has almost made me anorexic."

"I've been working as a cow and horse these past few days. If I don't eat more, how can I have the energy to go to the fields and plow the fields?" Lu Dongjie suddenly laughed in a narrow voice.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I will ignore you." Mi Xue paused with the shrimp dumplings in her hands, her pretty face couldn't help but blush, and she said in a low voice.

The two of them were on the second floor of Tai Tung Teahouse on Morse Street in Chinatown. This is an authentic teahouse. The two of them came at the right time, neither early nor late. They didn't have to squeeze in with other people and were forced to listen.

A long talk.

After drinking morning tea, this pair of drag friends started strolling along Morse Street in the Chinatown area. Both of them were dressed in cool casual clothes, not busy with mundane affairs, and felt very happy and relaxed physically and mentally.

In this foreign country, there is no need to worry about being recognized by others all the time, and unnecessary troubles are avoided. Mi Xue's temperament has become more relaxed and generous. She holds Lu Dongjie's hand and walks around, doing some intimate things.

There will naturally be no worries about the movements between each other.

After three consecutive days of intense rehearsals and performances, the entire Jiashi team is physically and mentally exhausted, so we all stayed in Singapore for one day today, taking advantage of this rare opportunity to travel in pairs or groups to relax and relax.

Mood.

However, the current overall environment of Singapore, whether it is economic development or urban planning and design, is still a little worse than that of Xiangjiang. Except for the core area of ​​Orchard Road, other areas are just like the urban-rural fringe.

After Singapore became an independent country, it developed closely with Hong Kong and became an entrepot trade center between China and Southeast Asia, providing a special bridge link for China's foreign commercial trade.

It is precisely because of this situation that many Chinese are willing to immigrate to the Straits Settlements, mostly Hokkien and Cantonese. To a certain extent, Singapore's development is due to the continuous immigration from China.

wave.

This wave of immigration not only caused the rapid expansion of Singapore's population, injecting fresh blood into this young country and increasing the demographic dividend, but also strengthened the cultural ties between Singapore and China, especially language and customs.

, beliefs, religious practices, etc.

Therefore, when visiting Jiashi, a group of people usually don’t have to worry about not adapting to the language and customs. If you speak Mandarin, Cantonese and Hokkien, most of them will be ok. If it doesn’t work, you can just hold back a few words in English and make a few gestures, and you will still have no problem.

.

The south bank of the Singapore River is designated as a Chinese residential area, called Chinatown. It is also called Chinatown. Many houses in the entire area have Chinese architectural features. The identities of the Chinese living here are roughly the same, and the difference is only in the time of immigration.

successively.

"Why did you bring me here?" Lu Dongjie stopped, looked around, shook his head and smiled.

"Let's see what we can buy." Mi Xue rolled her eyes at him, took his hand and continued walking inside.

"Here?" Lu Dongjie glanced at her suspiciously, then carefully looked at the goods sold by these merchants, and then nodded with a clear smile.

Mi Xue looked at his smiling eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. She looked dizzy, glanced at him, and said with a chuckle: "You are such a bad guy, you always have random thoughts."

After Mi Xue finished speaking, she didn't want to explain, and pulled Lu Dongjie to continue walking inside.

This is the China Town in Chinatown, a flea market exclusively for tourists. As far as you can see, it is full of red colors. Mainly accessories such as red envelopes, red candles, Chinese knots, and wedding dresses.

The two walked around for a while before stopping at a shop selling sacred and Buddhist ornaments.

"What do you think of this?" Mi Xue chose for a while, then picked up a string of Buddhist beads and asked Lu Dongjie.

"Isn't this suitable for me?" Lu Dongjie smiled and shook his head and glanced at her.

"Hehe, you have a nice thought, it's not like I bought it for you." Mi Xue was stunned for a moment, then started to giggle.

"Did I express my feelings wrongly again?" Lu Dongjie touched his nose awkwardly.

"Forget it, it's no use asking you, a person who has no faith." Mi Xue glanced at him with a smile and said to herself.

"Who says I have no faith? Some of you believe in Buddha and some believe in Jesus." Lu Dongjie retorted. Facing Mi Xue's suspicious eyes, he said righteously: "We believe in Brother Guan."

"Pfft, you cops and gangsters all trust Brother Guan, who do you think he will protect?" Mi Xue looked at Lu Dongjie jokingly.

"What we worship is morality, and what they worship is loyalty. There is a difference," Lu Dongjie replied with a smile.

"You're so quibbling, I can't help you." Mi Xue looked at him with beautiful eyes and said lightly.

After the two of them visited Chinatown, they continued walking along the street to the next stop, and then wandered around the stalls in front of the Chinatown Building. This was a second-hand goods trading market, and the stalls were full of

There are some pocket watches, Buddha statues, calligraphy and paintings, old books and other things, some are exquisite and some are rough, and they look very old.

"Do you think this place is familiar?" Lu Dongjie suddenly stopped and patted her hand with a smile.

"Here?" Mi Xue was asked by Lu Dongjie. She immediately looked around with interest, then shook her head and said, "I have no impression."

"I guess you won't go to the street stall market in Sham Shui Po." Lu Dongjie smiled and shook his head, holding her little hand and continuing to move forward.

Mi Xue snorted and chuckled, "Then you can take me there next time."

Lu Dongjie saw an old book at an old bookstall. He picked it up and was about to open it to read, but was reminded by an old stall owner: "Young man, this book was written by Dongyangzai. Just read it."

Don’t believe it”

"Really? I really want to see the Japanese style of writing." Lu Dongjie opened it and looked at it. It was indeed written by an Asian.

This is a book that reveals the history of the Communist Party of Malaya. Lu Dongjie only roughly flipped through it and knew what the book was about.

Lu Dongjie silently put down the book, shook his head and left with a smile.

Their last stop was Thian Hock Temple, which is the oldest Chinese temple in Singapore. It is mainly dedicated to Mazu, the goddess of the sea. The early Chinese immigrants felt that Mazu had protected them from the difficult South China Sea, so they specially built and operated it here.

of.

This temple adopts a unique Minnan architectural style, which is characterized by detailed statues of dragons and gods and Buddhas, as well as colorful broken porcelain shards on the roof ridge. This building is a traditional Chinese palace shape with a wooden frame structure, which was never used when it was built.

A nail is used.
