What are the customs in Guangzhou?

Dressed? Diet? Human feelings? ostentation and extravagance

Dress

People in Guangzhou are very casual and untidy. Men seldom wear suits. Even if millions and billionaires walk in front of you, you will never see the slightest fear from their clothes. The most common mistake for newcomers to Guangzhou is to treat the boss as a wage earner and the wage earner as a boss. Because it is often the working class, not the boss, who dresses well, people often make the mistake of judging people by their appearances. Women in Guangzhou dress more casually. They often walk around in socks and slippers, as if they were running out of the bedroom. It was really shocking. Girls in Guangzhou seem to have a grudge against high heels. Most of them like to wear flat shoes with jeans, and the temperature in Guangzhou doesn't change much all year round.

prescribe a diet

Guangzhou people dress casually, but eat well. Guangzhou people don't have a good cultural background, but they have a deep understanding of Confucius' teaching that "food is never tired of essence and cooking is never tired of detail" and carry it out most thoroughly. Guangzhou people pay attention to cabinet art and make fancy dishes, which are very unique. Guangzhou people like to drink soup, and an old fire often lasts all morning or afternoon; People in Guangzhou like to drink morning tea, which can be drunk from morning to noon or even from noon to evening. Cantonese food is dazzling. A cafeteria named "Four Seas One" in Panyu District has 800 kinds of dishes.

Guangzhou people's greatest hobby is eating wild animals. They dare to eat anything that flies in the sky or walks on the ground except stones. Pangolin is called the "hamster" on the dining table in Guangzhou, and lizard is called the "five melons and golden dragons" on the dining table in Guangzhou ... Guangzhou people have a set of fixed procedures on the dining table. When they sit down, they must rinse their bowls and chopsticks with tea, even if they know that they are sterilized tableware, they still enjoy it. There are always a lot of rice bowls, soup bowls, tea cups, wine glasses, knives, forks and chopsticks in front of you. This teacup was a small one as soon as it entered the room, and it was replaced by another big one when it sat at the table. Sometimes change a set of tableware when serving, and someone will help you remove it immediately after eating.

Guangzhou people get their soup off their chest, and the waste of "soup" is terrible. What kind of chicken, fish, snake, crocodile and tortoise make soup, only take its soup and discard its residue. Boil a cup of soup, and pour out enough dregs to feed two people. Everyone knows that "food is in Guangzhou", but how many people know that if China people eat like Guangzhou people, how many earths can they feed?

human feelings

Guangzhou people don't have the habit of holding weddings, funerals and weddings, and "human feelings" are also very appropriate and will never become a burden. Weddings and funerals in Guangzhou are big losses, small losses, and it is impossible to make money. Therefore, people in Guangzhou generally only accept relatives and friends for weddings, and officials have no habit of catering. Rich businessmen and stars sometimes hold big weddings, which are nothing more than burning money to gather popularity.

The characteristic of Guangzhou's human feelings is to give "benefits", especially on holidays, the elders should give "benefits" to the younger generation, the superiors to the subordinates, and the married to the unmarried. Say "Congratulations on getting rich and getting a red envelope" and you will get a "profit". "Li" is as big as thousands and as small as one yuan, but it creates the same happy atmosphere.

ostentation and extravagance

There are more than two Guangzhou, one is crowded and the other is crowded with cars. But in Guangzhou, you can't see beautiful cars. Those racing parties that appeared in Hangzhou and Chengdu are definitely not available in Guangzhou. People in Guangzhou don't like to talk about ostentation and extravagance, and the "rich second generation" here is also very real. People in Guangzhou eat out and pack up after eating. Generally, hotels have tableware for packing, so no one will feel embarrassed.

Many young people get married every day in Guangzhou, but seldom see the married motorcade. If there are, just two or three cars, which is very simple. Banquets are generally not extravagant. Sometimes when eating in the hotel lobby, the other party's screen may be holding a wedding reception. In the suburbs, it's different. When suburban residents get married, they usually put wine in their ancestral temple, which is spectacular. But the banquets are arranged by the villagers themselves, and there is little waste. Usually, couples toast and set off firecrackers. There are no gongs and drums that lift the sky, and there is no noisy emcee to create an atmosphere.
