The old doorplate of Si-Si Nan Cun
Frankly speaking, these so-called “great culinary skills” were gained under the bad living condition. Due to scarcity of goods, village mother in each family had to make good use of everything edible that they had at hand. It’s not so exaggerated like what the TV play shows. The home cuisine they made once in a while was to relief the homesickness, hence everything they made was delicious. The Nan Cun Snack Bar was started up at that time only to earn a living. Besides, people didn’t have anything to entertain themselves after work, so they gathered at snack bars eating, drinking and chitchatting.
Village Mothers: Mothers in the Village not only need to take care of food, clothing, living, transportation for the whole family as well as make good use of every penny from husbands' salary, but also they must learn and do some crafts so as to earn extra money to support the family. Usually mothers could not rest till the nights were late.
Forty four Giant Dragon: The Dragon is made of 44 parts. Before the Arsenal, moved to San-Xia, on occasions of Lunar New Years, Double Tenth National Days and other important festivals, the dancing Dragon will be performed as the last program in the shows.
