Every time I hear, think about, or see Anhui on TV, a strange emotion will rush into my heart. In fact, I was born and raised in Shanghai, and it was the Huangpu River that nurtured me.

Although he was born and raised in Shanghai, his place of origin on his household register indicates that he is from Anhui, and he has little to do with Anhui. When my parents were still young and my grandmother was still alive, there were often visits from close relatives in Anhui. Now that I am old, there are still many people in Anhui who are completely ignorant. It is conceivable that in my lifetime, even if fellow villagers meet on the street, they will no longer be like strangers.

Not only me, but also my children and grandchildren can still speak standard Anhui dialect (with a slight Shanghainese accent). We cannot throw away or forget the things of our ancestors! However, there is no guarantee that future generations will always be able to speak the standard Anhui dialect.

Anhui people seem to be less than ideal in people’s overall impression, but I have never felt uneasy because I am an Anhui person. Anhui has produced countless outstanding talents. Anhui people have made indelible contributions to the development of Chinese history. !

Among the people I interact with, if anyone speaks rudely to Anhui people as a whole, I will sternly reprimand him or even break off the relationship! Because I am from Anhui, and you are insulting me, I will naturally fight back. If you look down on Anhui people, I will not look down on you. For those who like regional blackness, don't treat them as normal people. They are irrational and do not deserve to be normal people! Let me ask, are there no evil people in that land? When looking at the problem, why don't you give some perspective? !

Now that I am old, I am getting closer and closer to the end of my life. I may not have the slightest connection with my "ancestral home" Anhui, but I can never change that I am an Anhui person from the beginning to the end. I am an Anhui person by birth. , Death is an Anhui ghost!

If I tell you that nowadays, when you meet Anhui people in Shanghai, whether they are familiar or unfamiliar, you always feel like being close to each other, you probably won’t find it strange.

Anhui is my hometown. When it comes to Anhui, there are too many wonderful things. When I think of Anhui, the first thing that comes to my mind is its beautiful landscapes, the Huangshan Mountain, which is one of the wonders in the world.

I remember when I first went to Huangshan, I was only sixteen or seventeen years old. My father’s brother, my eldest uncle, was in Huangshan. He was only in his forties or fifties at the time and worked at the Huangshan Rainfall Station. They measured the rainfall in Huangshan Mountain in the weather forecast. I took a bus from my hometown in Wuhu County, Anhui Province, to Huangshan Mountain, which took five or six hours. , the transportation at that time was very underdeveloped, and the bus meandered away, passing through the mountains and ridges, and when we arrived at Huangshan, I was very excited. A little boy, a handsome young man, looked around at the beautiful Huangshan with curious eyes. I just remember that there was a group of students from Shanghai who stayed with us in a Datongpu (I remember it was a hotel on Guangmingding). We chatted about what we had seen that day and were very excited.

The photographic equipment at that time was not very advanced. It is not as convenient as mobile phones now. At that time, all films were black and white, and there were very few color ones. The 120 camera was very novel, but I also took a lot of photos. The photos are still in my photo album. I look at them whenever I have nothing to do and reminisce about my youthful days.

Thirty years later, Huangshan is now even more beautiful, and the welcoming pines are still standing proudly, attracting tourists from all over the world to see and experience Huangshan. And the transportation is also very convenient. It only takes less than two hours to get from Hefei, the capital of Anhui Province, to Huangshan by train. I'm just busy with work and haven't been there for N years. I really want to go to Huangshan again when I have time to feel the feelings of my youth.

I know that when many people hear the word Anhui, they equate it with "poor". But to me, the word Anhui means kindness and peace of mind.

I am an authentic Anhui native. I grew up in Chizhou, Anhui. I studied in Huangshan, Anhui for four years of college. Even my friends around me are from Anqing, Suzhou, Wuhu, and Liuzhou. People from An, Xuancheng and other places, all my childhood memories are inseparable from this province.

At this moment, I am at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport. Looking at this city with people coming and going, I can't help but have the urge to go home. How many migrant Anhui people like me are there in this huge magical city?

It has only been a year since I graduated, but I often hear the elders around me say: It would be best if you could stay in Hangzhou (Shanghai, Nanjing) in the future.

Is starting a family and starting a business in a foreign land really a happy thing? I have no idea. Maybe it’s because I know too well that I don’t have that ability, maybe it’s because I’m too attached to my family, and the “achievement” my elders call me is not that worthy of happiness for me.

I must be a very unambitious person. I just want to live in Anhui when I grow old. Chizhou, Huangshan, and Wuhu are actually not bad either. I want to climb Huangshan Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain, and Tianzhu Mountain. I want to raise a dog and a cat in a small town to bask in the sun. I want my parents to be around. I want to turn around and meet someone I met when I was young. people.

I have never dreamed of going to Huizhou.

Anhui Province originally had nothing to do with me. It was just a province in China. However, it was only four years since my son was admitted to Hefei University of Technology. After graduation, he stayed in Hefei to work. Relatives and friends like to ask, where does your son work? I talked about Hefei City, Anhui Province. Most of them said, oh, it is such a poor place, so poor. The people who came to us to beg for rice in the past were all Anhui people. A few friends who often go out said that Anhui is not the place now. It was Anhui in the past. Now it is developing very quickly. It is a good place and it is a developing city. In this way, my son has become half Anhui. He has been studying and working for several years, and I have been there many times. Now Anhui’s high-speed rail, airport, and subway are developing more conveniently, and people’s lives are getting better and better. . good.

I am from the suburbs of Shanghai. When I mention Anhui, the first thing I think of is the two friends I met when I was 18 years old while working in the Computer City. I was all sick and didn’t want to go home. They were the ones who kept me company, wandering around with me and singing at night. For ten yuan in the bathroom, I could sleep on the sofa all night. After I stopped working, I still contacted them, but they went to another area. It gradually faded away, and then came Huangshan and Hongcun, because when my current wife and I went to Anhui, we only went to Huangshan. It was very beautiful, and the local chicken crispy rice was delicious.

Finally, there is my brother-in-law. My wife’s sister’s husband gets along well with me. He used to make fishing machines, but now he has opened a lunch shop. Anyway, he doesn’t go to work, he just wants to Being a boss is a great idea haha.

There are also many people from Anhui in our company. If I meet someone I say hello, I am not familiar with them. Everywhere there are people with no quality and bad character, so there are also bad Anhui people when you meet them. This is actually nothing. There are good and bad people everywhere. The key point is that those who have no quality and no character still keep saying that Shanghai people are not good. No matter what, this is not good, and you are not forced to do it, right? You can't beat them to death with a stick and everything will be fine. There are good and bad everywhere. In fact, we are all just protecting our hometown. For example, now it has become an international topic, Shanghai and Mumbai, China. People in Mumbai say that Mumbai is much better than Shanghai. This is true, and I believe everyone will do their best. Quite Shanghai-like, right?

When it comes to Anhui, my first reaction is to block... Why? Every year when I go home, I travel all the way through Zhejiang, Anhui, Henan, and Shaanxi. The total journey is 1,800 kilometers, from where I am to Anhui, which is 1,700 kilometers, including 200 kilometers in Zhejiang.

The remaining 500 kilometers have to be walked for more than 20 hours at a time. It is too painful, I can’t walk, I can’t rest, just like that...

Out In Anhui, I will basically finish the remaining 1,100 kilometers in twelve or thirteen hours.

The second is that the girls are beautiful and have good temperament. I'm not talking about the highway toll collector, because the first time I met was a boy, the second time it was a boy, and the third time I was ETC...

It was a girl I met every day. All beautiful.

Anhui has undergone earth-shaking changes in the past ten years. It is no longer synonymous with poverty, shabby, and rotten in people’s image in the past. I think these thoughts are also due to the fact that many migrant workers in Anhui were forced to live in the past few decades. They were forced to go out to work along the coast. At that time, almost every worker had one or two fertilizer bags to hold daily necessities. They couldn't help but be poor. Later, living conditions improved, and fertilizer bags gradually faded out of people's sight. With economic development in recent years, Anhui has made achievements in many fields. For example, urban construction, represented by counties and cities, is growing at a rate exceeding the national average every year. As cities expand, people's lives, consumption and entertainment methods have also changed. It is also becoming more and more diversified and high-quality. Even in many counties, you can see many high-end brand-name stores, covering people's clothing, food, housing, transportation, etc. This mainly refers to northern Anhui, the least developed place in Anhui. In the past few years, they have also made great efforts to develop, such as Nike, Anta, Heilan House, etc. in the clothing industry, Hengdian and Wanda in the film industry, Laomiao, Lao Fengxiang and so on. The mileage of high-speed rail is also among the highest in the country. Now every prefecture-level city has high-speed rail, making it more convenient for people to travel. In terms of population growth in various provinces and cities across the country, which was just released, Anhui also performed well (excluding natural population growth). This is despite the fact that the population of many provinces and cities is decreasing or growing slowly, it can increase significantly by 400,000. This is You can also tell something from the side. Although it cannot compare with Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, we are taking small steps and I believe it will get better and better in the future. A corner of Wanbei County.

Southern Anhui has beautiful scenery, and northern Anhui has many brothers

I love Anhui

I was in Suzhou in 2008 Carrying plates

One of my brothers in Tongling often took me to Xinhua Bookstore to enjoy the cool air and read books

The 20 yuan pack of cigarettes he gave me when I left for school was my day’s salary.

11 years have passed and we have contacted occasionally

But I know that I will always remember this brother

I only hope to go to Tongling to see his children when I have time

Wrap him a 5,000 red envelope

It’s so tacky, but I like Anhui people

The general impression is good

For many years When I was working in Taizhou, Zhejiang, I was defrauded by a colleague from Anhui in the name of borrowing a mobile phone to make calls. At that time, I was told to borrow a mobile phone to make calls and get it to you later. Then I couldn't find the person after get off work. When I came to work the next day, I was told to leave it there. I'll bring him a place to sleep when I get back. Who knew I would say this every time? At that time, I felt like I wanted to hit him, but I was alone. He had fellow villagers pressing him down. It lasted for more than a week and refused to come back. Later, I chose to call the police. When I went to report the crime, I told them that the other person was from Anhui. Then the police were so excited that they brought more than a dozen people to the company to find people directly. They promised to deduct the salary from the salary after the salary was paid. I didn’t think about it and was very worried. Thanks to the Taizhou police. Anyway, in the past few years in Taizhou, I met many Anhui people who I found very annoying, but there was only one who was okay.

Anhui! It’s my lover’s natal family! I go there several times a year!

That used to be like this! When people hear Anhui, they think of all kinds of poverty! What is the reality?

Ten years ago, I went to northern Anhui for the first time. It is indeed not very developed! What catches your eyes is all kinds of ruin! What impressed me most was that road! It's too bad. It's better in the city. This is completely impossible in rural areas. There are potholes everywhere, and it’s very bumpy on a sunny day. It’s even worse on rainy days! The houses are basically low brick houses! There are very few buildings left.

But in recent years, it has developed rapidly. There are cement roads in the countryside! Many people are building buildings! Living standards have improved a lot! But environmental problems are still serious! Still needs to be improved.

I believe that the hard-working and simple people of Anhui will build their hometown into a better place!

Thank you! ! ! !
