Chapter 15 The Called Man

Chapter 15 The called man

Cao Yanyan also had the stubborn temper of a girl from the Northwest. When she saw Shen Qingcheng ignore her and ignore her, she felt a little aggrieved inexplicably.

"I said, why are you so unkind and gentle, you look gentle, and how do you do things like wood? Do you still want to buy a good luminous cup for your friends?"

Cao Yanyan muttered and complained to Shen Qingcheng. Shen Qingcheng didn't want to provoke Cao Yanyan, but seeing Helanshan and Dr. Stephen were about to walk to the car, Shen Qingcheng thought that it would be better to have less than more things, so he finally spoke.

"Cao...Cao Yanyan, I'm sorry, I just felt sorry for you. I don't like to talk. Whether you say it's boring or a piece of wood, I'm due to my personality. Then, my friend's luminous cup is still up to you."

Shen Qingcheng spoke with a slow speech, his voice was very magnetic, which made Cao Yanyan stunned. "Then... man, has anyone told you that your voice sounds nice, just like the anchor's voice..."

Shen Qingcheng replied shyly to Cao Yanyan, "Thank you for your praise."

When he got on the bus in Helan Mountain, he heard Shen Qingcheng politely say thank you to Cao Yanyan for his praise. He was very curious, "Yanyan, why did you praise Shen Expert just now?"

Cao Yanyan covered her mouth and smiled, "Uncle He, have you noticed this man..." After a man said nothing, Cao Yanyan immediately felt something was wrong and quickly changed her words, "Expert Shen's voice sounds nice, just like the anchor's voice."

Helanshan heard the original meaning of Cao Yanyan's words, "Yanyan, don't talk to experts in our dialect slang to avoid misunderstandings."

Cao Yanyan actually thought it was inappropriate. After all, she was not familiar with Shen Qingcheng, but for some reason she just liked to call Shen Qingcheng a "man".

Helanshan was afraid that Shen Qingcheng would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained to Shen Qingcheng.

"Expert Shen, don't get me wrong. Yanyan calls you a man as a slang in our local dialect.

The term "hanzi" originated from the Han Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, several generals such as Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and Li Guang all defeated the Huns, made great contributions and became famous.

Because of the brave wars of our Han Dynasty, the Huns respected our Han Dynasty soldiers and generals as men. The locals have used the title of "man" to this day, and they will call them men when they see respected men."

Shen Qingcheng felt a little guilty after hearing Helanshan’s explanation. Just now, when Cao Yanyan called him a man, his first feeling in his heart was that Cao Yanyan was frivolous.

"Yan Yan, I'm sorry just now, I blame me for being embarrassed and unaware of this slang term..." Shen Qingcheng sincerely apologized to Cao Yanyan.

After listening to the whole story, Stephen couldn't help laughing, "Old He is right. When the city people do have this slang. When I first came here many years ago, some people always called me a foreign man.

At first I thought this was a frivolous word, but after I got to know it, they regarded me as Huaguotong and a respectful title for me. To be honest, I really want to be a man."

Stephen's words made the entourage of the Dunhuang Cultural Relics Institute laugh.

The originally tense atmosphere in the car was humorously resolved by Dr. Stephen. After seeing everyone, Cao Yanyan called out to the driver. "Master Li, let's go back to the Dunhuang B&B Hotel."

The driver's name is Li Gandang, a full-time driver at the Dunhuang Cultural Relics Institute. He has a flat head and a beer belly. Although he is not good-looking, he has the simplicity of a man from the northwest.

Helanshan introduced Li Gandang to everyone, "This is an old driver of our Cultural Relics Institute. His name is Li Gandang, a native of Dunhuang. He has many years of experience in accompanying scientific research in the field."

Li Gandang was praised by Helanshan, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"Director He, don't praise you for being a good person. I will be floating now." Li Gandang smiled honestly.

When Shen Qingcheng heard Helanshan introduce Li Gan at that time, he was very envious of him when he talked about his many years of experience in accompanying the scientific examination.

Shen Qingcheng discovered that his trip to Dunhuang might be the most right thing he has done in his life.

Along the way, Cao Yanyan introduced the customs and folk customs of Dunhuang to everyone in front of Dunhuang's guide.

"Dunhuang is a county-level city in Gansu Province, managed by Jiuquan City. It is located at the westernmost end of the Hexi Corridor and is located at the intersection of Gansu, Qinghai and Xinjiang. Dunhuang is a node city on the Silk Road. It is famous all over the world for its "Dunhuang Grottoes" and "Dunhuang Murals". It is the location of the World Heritage Sites Mogao Grottoes and Yumen Pass and Yangguan on the border of the Han Great Wall. It is also a national historical and cultural city.

There are 265 cultural relics and attractions in Dunhuang City, including three world cultural heritage sites, namely Mogao Grottoes, Yumen Pass ruins, Xuanquan Site, and four national key cultural relics protection units, namely Mogao Grottoes, Yumen Pass ruins, Xuanquan Site, and the Great Wall in Dunhuang.

There is also the "April 8 Temple Fair" in Dunhuang, which is a traditional folk festival. On the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, local residents, especially Buddhist believers, bring their elderly and young people to the memory of Shigaamuni Nezh, gather in groups in Mogao Grottoes, Sanwei Mountain, and Leiyin Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, and worship ancestors."

When Shen Qingcheng heard the "April Eight Temple Fair", he felt a little moved. Especially when he heard people gathered in Mogao Grottoes to burn incense and worship Buddha, and worshipped ancestors, he wanted to integrate into it with his own eyes.

"Yanyan, you are really a Dunhuang Pass. Can you ask, has this temple fair not been there at other times?" Shen Qingcheng asked with hope.

Cao Yanyan shook her head, "No, this April 8 temple fair has been passed down for more than a thousand years. Every year it is on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month. Whether it is windy, rainy or beautiful, people will follow the appointment as usual."

Shen Qingcheng couldn't help but feel a little regretful after hearing this. It's hot summer day and the April 8th Temple Fair has passed. If he wants to participate, he may have to wait until next year.

Chen Yuliang sat next to Shen Qingcheng. When he saw Shen Qingcheng sighing, he hurriedly patted Shen Qingcheng on the shoulder, "Qingcheng, if you want to participate, we will come next year?"

Shen Qingcheng nodded, "Okay, thank you teacher."

Cao Yanyan distracted Shen Qingcheng from the spotlight, and she continued to tell everyone about Dunhuang's specialties.

"Dunhuang is known as the "Guazhou", so our Dunhuang is another hometown of fruits and vegetables. Our Dunhuang produces a variety of sweet and delicious fruits and vegetables.

Handmade carpets, colored sculptures, craft camels, luminescent cups, crystal stone glasses, craft calligraphy and paintings, wax dyes, Dunhuang Robu Lamb Tea and textiles are all Dunhuang specialties, but our Dunhuang specialties are most famous for their sweet fruits and melons, Dunhuang Robu Lamb Tea and luminescent cups.”

When Zhou Qingyang heard Luobumacha, he became interested. He asked Cao Yanyan without saying a word.
