Grandmother Outside The Eyes Of The Sun

Grandma was born in the late Qing Dynasty, so often called into amalgamation Chaoyangmen door, which made me very early that this is the nickname Chaoyang Gate.

When I was three, with back to lie on the moss Jishuitan the lake is full of ancient vintage blue flower of stone pier, watching fish in the water, accidentally fell into the lake and almost drowned, after playing there I heard who said "water," water-related words or things, always playing Jiling children, the root cause of child wet his pants down. But it cured my grandmother was hit by problems.

1963, that year my 7 year old, her grandmother took me to see my Auntie, she lived in the Kanto shop. I asked: "Why is it called off the East shops?" Grandma said: "I ancestors told me, 'Kanto shop, selling bean flour, ginseng coats big leaf tobacco', so called Kanto shop." After many years, I went to Kanto stores only figure out, this shop is a long time ago Kanto Northeast native products to sell the place. Granny is the Manchu people, ancestors from the northeast is presumably familiar with her grandmother must Kanto stores. We are not to take the bus to Chaoyang grandmother called: "You Look! Qi moat of the door!" When I heard about the moat with water, can not help a child to shrink from their heads Jiling, then wet the pants. I am waiting for her to pull out the hard up, the car had a very busy early outward vegetable market. Then car broke down and others are complaining about bad cars and drivers. I get off my grandma on her own, walk, and was pleased to pointing to a temple, said: "Dongyue, imperial temples, monks could not stay Road." She said, until I go back would be a phrase Minyan. After a child hears a word she said: "Bridge to the East," - so I did not shrink neck, and she hurried on me: "Do not be afraid river, do not be afraid of water, out in it too Wuzui."

East Bridge, a very thick white wood railings, great sound of water under the bridge, I dare not look scared, thinking I was going children fell into the lake, regret why they were not able to cover your mouth was choke water.

Grandma took me north along the East River Bridge, along the piece of Kanto shop Backstreet river water (now gone into a road a) go on the river have a number of white wooden bridge, I only care about the number of white wooden bridge, early forget the fear of water, I asked grandma: "how have so many bridges you? river water, where so many have to go?"
