"I have never experience this kind of bazaar, it is really lively!" Xia Yubing, a Russian student, said excitedly.
At 10:00 a.m. on December 23rd, Hu Yanfeng, deputy dean of the School of International Education of Dezhou University, led a research group of 14 Russian students to arrive at the Yellow River Bazaar in Yangan Town. After getting off the bus, the boys put on military coats, and the girls put on Shandong authentic cotton-padded jackets, and started the shopping mode with great interest.
At the entrance of bazaar, the troupe is performing opera. The international students looked at the exquisite costumes of the actors on the stage and whispered, "Is this the Peking Opera that the teacher talked about? It's really the first time to see it. It's so beautiful."
Everyone buys while walking, eats while shopping, and the cries of vendors are endless and lively. Dean Hu Yanfeng introduced various snacks on the booth to international students."This is the golden silk jujube of Laqling, which tastes sweet and rich in nutrition." "This is the condiment of Yangan Town, and this is the taste capital of China." "This is pure handmade steamed corn-bread, coarse grain health food..."
In front of a food stall, Julia, an international student, is asking about the price. "Eight pieces a pound." The stall owner answered comfortably. "Jin?" Julia doesn't understand the concept of "a pound". Many onlookers began to try to explain to her. "A pound is five hundred grams." The villagers next to him said. "Oooh!" Julia suddenly realized and continued, "buy a pound!" Take the food called by the stall owner and eat it happily while walking.
Unconsciously, it was nearly noon. Daya, an international student, looked at the lively collection and said with some reluctance."The time is too short, I haven't gone shopping enough, the friends here are so enthusiastic, and there are so many delicious things. I will come again next time."
