Chapter 285
"Oh my God, Qingxuan and Jincan, your food is delicious! This rice is colorful and looks like it has appetite. And these dishes are spicy and numb. This should be Sichuan and Chongqing dishes? Is it the dishes in your hometown?"
Mike and the others were also very curious about their hometown Yucheng, and they made an appointment to have the opportunity to visit Xu Qingxuan and the others' hometown.
You can't see Yucheng now, but it's still acceptable to eat Yucheng's specialty dishes.
"Yes, this is Sichuan and Chongqing cuisine. The spicy flavor in our house is very light. Can your body accept it?"
Jin Can knows very well that many foreigners can't accept Sichuan-Yu cuisine at all, and they always feel that it's so spicy that it can't stand it and it's so numb.
"We can accept it, we can accept it. I feel that the Sichuan-Yu cuisine is very appetizing. We have to eat an extra bowl of food!"
Since we arrived in China, Mike and the other two found that China not only had a variety of dishes, but also had a lot of staple foods, including rice, noodles, buns, steamed buns, dumplings, hand-made hands, etc., which made them dazzled.
After dinner, the three of them explored the entire courtyard. The three foreigners were very curious about their house and courtyard. After all, after hearing what Jin Can said, this courtyard has a history of hundreds of years. Although it has been renovated in the middle, the main building has not changed.
When the three of them were envious of Xu Qingxuan's family when they lived in such a house that had been established for a longer time than Liguo was founded.
In particular, Alex, who studied history, asked directly: "Qingxuan, do you have such courtyards sold in your capital?"
"There must be, but it is definitely not easy to find a house like ours that is preserved so well! This kind of house depends on fate, and houses like ours have been truly preserved for hundreds of years and are generally not sold to foreigners! If you like it, you can buy the newly built antique courtyard!"
No matter how good a friend is, once national interests are involved, Jin Can still have a high sensitivity. She doesn't want the fewer and fewer courtyards in the capital to fall into the hands of foreigners.
Even if this foreigner is her friend, it's not OK.
After hearing Jin Can's words, Alex was extremely depressed, "If you live in an antique courtyard house, you don't have that kind of taste! Isn't your country reforming and opening up? Why are you still so xenophobic?"
"It's not xenophobic? If your country has any treasures, it will definitely not be willing to be bought by other countries. The same principle is that our courtyard house is the treasure of our country. With hundreds of years of history, just these woods can be preserved, and our maintenance fee is not cheap every year."
As soon as Jin Can said this, Alecchi nodded in understanding and understanding: "You are right. Our country is actually similar to China. Once it involves national historical relics, it is generally very strict."
Moreover, because the founding of Liguo was too short, there was no cultural heritage at all, it just integrated the cultures of various races into a unique culture.
Moreover, in order to make all the citizens of Liguo proud of Liguo, Liguo likes to use Liguo's dream as the theme and promote the superiority of national policies to the public.
In fact, smart people can see that the country is just gathering popularity.
In particular, Alex, who is an upper class, knows that the country is completely useless measures to dominate the world.
Of course, in fact, every country is similar.
"Alex, if you really like this kind of courtyard house, you can live directly in our house when you come to Beijing! There is no one living in our middle courtyard yet."
Xu Qingxuan now has many people living in his home, so he doesn’t care about living in a few more outsiders.
Many people live together. After living for a long time, he and Jin Can have become accustomed to it. They feel that if there are three more people living in such a large courtyard, it will still be too big.
After all, this yard is sandwiched with a yard. As soon as everyone lives in one room, there are still many empty rooms. And although this is a three-in-one courtyard, in fact, in addition to their main rooms, there are many main rooms on both sides of it, which are now empty.
"Yes, Xiao Xuanzi is right. If you like this kind of old courtyard, you should just live in our house. Of course, it doesn't matter if you think it's inconvenient to live in our house. We also have a courtyard in the capital, which is near the Forbidden City. If you don't feel it's not very convenient to go to and from school, you can live there. It just so happened that we have repaired it before and planned to build a B&B there. If you are willing, it's convenient to live there and freely."
Jin Can actually doesn't want more people to live in the family. After all, there are people coming and going, so neither she nor Xu Qingxuan can be quiet.
Mike doesn't like staying at other people's houses. After hearing Jin Can's words, he said directly: "I'll stay in your homestay!"
Logan is an otaku and has always had a good relationship with Mike. When he heard that he wanted to live in a homestay, he said, "I also live in a homestay, but do you have broadband?"
"Yes, there is broadband. After all, our B&B only accepts foreign friends, especially those like you who like Chinese traditional culture. That courtyard is bigger than the courtyard we live in now. If you are willing, we will drive you to the B&B in a while!"
After hearing Jin Can's words, Alex asked with an interest: "Does your courtyard house have a history of hundreds of years?"
"Yes, it's been hundreds of years. I heard that the house where a prince lived in the past was a house with mountains, water, flowers and grass. It was very beautiful. When you live in it, you can think of the environment in which those people were living in in ancient Chinese history! Also, the walls, wood, tiles, etc. inside are mixed with old and new, and you can take a good look at it at that time."
Jin Can thinks that Alex may be the person who is most curious about the cultural heritage of China among the three, so she is also very patient when facing him. After all, she is very happy to promote the culture of China to him.
"A hundred years of history, it would be amazing to think about it! Jin Can, I would also like to go to the Archaeology Department of Peking University to listen to the class, but my Chinese is not good and I can't understand what the teacher said. What should I do?"
Jin Can had no choice when facing Alex's question, "Or you would better learn Chinese first. Only when the language is smooth will you learn smoothly!"
"Oh my God, Jin Can, do you want our lives? You don't know that before you came to China, we had studied Chinese at language schools, but after studying for several months, we still can't speak much Chinese. The pronunciation is really life-threatening!"
When Mike heard Jin Can say that they would learn Chinese, he was in a dilemma for a while.
