The next day, Nie Yun and the four sisters were called out by Su Jingyi early, and it was too late to see the Dai people's dance. There was no way, so I had to find a guide with Su Jingyi, took a minivan, and went to the Dai settlement.
The car winds around the mountains and rivers, it is cool, and the air is filled with beautiful and fast music. Everyone feels very light. With the music in the air, Su Jingyi's hands are dancing gently in the car, sometimes Looking out the window, and sometimes at the sisters, she feels intoxicated with a smile!
Nie Yun looked at Su Jingyi's smile, not knowing why, but also felt very sweet in his heart, and couldn't help but wave his hands with Su Jingyi.
This guide is also a driver, a Han man in his early thirties. He is very talkative. Along the way, he constantly introduced the various scenic spots and the various living habits of the Dai people to Nie Yun and others. He also told Nie Yun and others that the flat land along the way is called a dam by the locals, and what olive trees are there. , Coconut trees and many other trees that have never been seen before. The first attraction I arrived at was the Lanlan Dam. Since Nie Yun was not at the time of the Dai people to celebrate the Songkran Festival, he just turned around at the door of the Lanlan Dam and set off again.
I learned a lot of information from the guide. For example, the so-called Xishuangbanna includes Jinghong, Menghai and Mengla. Jinghong is the central continent of Xishuangbanna. Almost all the scenic spots are concentrated in Jinghong. Many places in Xishuangbanna begin with the word Meng, because Meng symbolizes bravery and is the representative of the county, which is relatively larger.
Next, Nie Yun and others are going to the home of the Dai people. The guide said as he drove the car, "The main ethnic minority living in this area is the Dai people. Their living habits are different from ours. When you get here, you have to go to the countryside and do according to their living habits. They are collectively called children. The female is called the little servant whistle, and the boy is called the little servant Mao. The adult woman is called "Sao Deli" and the man is called "Mao Deli". Women are beautiful, they don't say beautiful, they say this woman is "sao".
There are three things they pay attention to when they enter the door. One is to take off, the other is to touch, the other is to take off their shoes, the second is to touch the lucky pillar in their house, and the third is to ignore the owner’s bedroom. They live in a bamboo building, usually on the second floor, so there is a habit of poke the bamboo building here, that is to say, if a "cat deli" like you is fancy "sao deli", you can Go to stab her bamboo house in the evening, if the other party wants, then you can enjoy it once. "
While talking, the driver's guide looked at Nie Yun secretly, and then said: "You, the cat Deli, should be careful not to stab the old'Sao Deli', otherwise it will be troublesome."
Nie Yun was speechless, and said in his heart: Damn, when did I become a cat? Return her mother to the place where Sao Deli lives. Is Lao Tzu that kind of person? And the more beautiful women are, the more showy they are, I'll go. This Dai person is really extraordinary.
Thinking of this in his heart, Nie Yun asked with interest: "Then what if they stabbed the cat to be a gift?" Nie Yun pointed to the four sisters.
The four sisters were also attracted by Nie Yun's problem. After all, they were afraid that if they accidentally stabbed the cat, they would be depressed if they were asked to stay here to marry.
The driver guide glanced at the four sisters and smiled: "Don't worry, the Dai people are inferior to men. If you marry a man or not, you will be regarded as a treasure if you give birth to a girl, and if you give birth to a boy, you will be regarded as a loser. And if a man gets married, he has to do three years of hard labor in the woman’s house first, and the girl is just like our princess."
Hearing this, the four sisters were relieved, but Nie Yun was speechless. Damn, what a man is inferior to a woman, is there no human rights after Lao Tzu comes here
The driver guide continued to introduce, and the thoughts of the four sisters had already flown to other places. The most serious was Su Xue. She began to worry, and said in her heart: In addition to her sisters, Nie Yun is a male. Yes, if this damnly stabbed someone's sorrow, wouldn't it be a problem? In order to protect the interests of ethnic minorities, the country will certainly sacrifice this guy, but what can we do if we want to marry him? If I knew it, I wouldn't be here.
Thinking like this, Su Xue gently pulled Nie Yun and threatened: "If your fellow dares to stab the place where Sao Deli lives, don't let me see you in the future."
That innocent Nie Yun, there are four fairies around him, how could he be willing to leave them behind and stab the other sorrows. Besides, my second child can't lift his head, how can I stabb him? Looking at Su Xue, she said softly, "You idiot, don't you know where I am wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Su Xue gave Earl for a while, and so did her heart. He was relieved immediately.
After two hours of long-distance bumps, the car drove into a slightly larger Dai village. Looking around, Dai's bamboo buildings are hidden deep in various tropical forests, but banyan trees, big green trees and other trees cover the sky and cover the sun, lush green, and green grass on the ground.
There are about 60 or 70 households in the whole village. All of them live in the attic. The heights of the attic are uneven, forming a unique landscape. At the entrance of the village, there are several Dai women wearing beautiful ethnic costumes. Their laughter makes the whole village no longer. Looks lonely. These Dai women wear tight-fitting underwear of various colors, light-colored coats with large plackets or narrow-sleeved shirts on the front, and the bottoms are colored tube skirts with various patterns woven on the skirts. They pull their long hair in a bun and insert combs diagonally on the buns, or hairpins. They are decorated with flowers, and they wear gold and silver ornaments, and a delicate silver belt is fastened on Xiaoman's waist. This kind of costume dresses them up beautifully and beautifully.
Suddenly, a voice came: "Hello, please come with me!"
It turns out that Nie Yun and others have already arrived in the Dai village without knowing it. Outside the window, a Dai "Sao Deli" has kindly invited Nie Yun to visit her home. The four sisters Su Xue see Looking at this Dai's sorrowful ceremony, he suddenly forgot that he was here for a trip, and he couldn't help but feel more worried and nervous in his heart.
The driver guide said to Nie Yun and the others: "Go, they are very hospitable, you have enough fun, call me, I will pick you up when the time comes." After speaking, he drove out of here.
Nie Yun and the four sisters stood where they were. You look at me, I look at you, and finally followed this hospitable "Sao Deli" to her house as a guest.
The Dai "Sao Deli" who received them is called Yuzi, 27 years old. She is a typical beautiful young woman of the Dai nationality. Her attic is generous and spacious. The attic is created by using bamboo and wood to put together the buckets, which are involved in each other. The attic is surrounded by wooden planks or bamboo fences, and the hall is divided into two halves with wooden planks. The inside is the bedroom, and the outside is the living room. There is no wall on the lower floor of the attic, which is used for stacking sundries or raising various animals. The building is about a few meters high on the ground, and the moisture does not easily rise indoors, and the water cannot be flooded. Yuzi has a five-year-old daughter and her husband is a tall and strong man.
Nie Yun and others took off their shoes outside the living room in the attic according to the etiquette stated by the driver's guide, and sat barefoot at Yuzi's house.
Yuzi introduced to Nie Yun and the others the customs and habits of the Dai people, and what she introduced was exactly the same as the ones introduced by previous driver friends. I also learned that the Dai people are an ethnic group that believes in Theravada Buddhism, and the bedroom cannot be shown to outsiders, because the souls of the family are in the bedroom, and if outsiders look at it, the family will get sick. Therefore, Nie Yun and others did not visit their bedroom.
"If you want, you can stay in my house at night, and I won't charge you a penny, but you can only sleep in the living room. When you sleep, your feet can only face the door, not us. In my bedroom, if your cat’s foot is facing my bedroom door, then you have to stay and do hard work in my house for a year and a half or climb three olive trees!"
Nie Yun, who was drinking tea, squirted out the tea in his mouth with a chuckle. Damn, what is this. There are so many rules.
"Don't worry, don't worry, we won't." Su Xue hurriedly smiled.
Su Jingyi found toilet paper and wiped the tea that Nie Yun squirted out. After all, they are sitting on a bamboo mat on the ground with a lot of water on it. Who knows if it violates other taboos or wipes it clean. As well.
Yuzi is a talkative person, constantly introducing the customs of the Dai people and the situation of the village to Nie Yun and the four sisters. There are more than 1,000 rubber trees and more than 300 banana trees in Yuzi's family, which are the main source of income. Her cousin has more than 3,000 rubber trees and more than 1,000 banana trees. She is the wealthiest family in a radius of several tens of miles. She also pointed to the refrigerator, TV, and air conditioner at home and said, “We didn’t even dare to think about these before. Every family has it. I also have a motorcycle in my house, which is a means of transportation for my husband to cut rubber. Hey, look, that’s my husband Ali." Yu Zi pointed to a standing not far away The strong man said.
Nie Yun and the four sisters looked around and saw Yuzi's husband Ali. Nie Yun realized that Ali seemed afraid to go home, so he became curious. To Yu Zi said: "Sao Deli, I'll go out for a while."
Yu Zi nodded and agreed. The four sisters also wanted to go out, but they were dragged by Yu Zi to say this or that, and it was not easy to leave for a while. After all, because of custom, you are not allowed to look at it, and it naturally feels uncomfortable.
㊣(7) Nie Yun, who came out, looked at this Dai man who did not dare to go home, chatting with curiosity. This Dai man dragged his five-year-old daughter in his hands, standing in a naive manner, as if he was very shy and did not dare to take the initiative to greet strangers.
Nie Yun asked him what the short knife on his waist was for. He said it was used to cut rubber, and he also said that he made 350 yuan for rubber tapping today. I'll go to the rubber forest later. After speaking, he rode away on his motorcycle without saying hello. Leave his daughter to play in the yard.
This guy's daughter has lost both front teeth, which is very cute. Nie Yun stepped forward to tease her and said, "Sing a song and dance to my uncle, okay?"
The little girl didn't seem to be afraid of strangers, so she sang in the yard happily and sang while jumping. For a while, the four sisters and Yuzi in the living room came out to watch.
