Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, February 9 (Reporter Zhang Xuan Jia Zhao) With bangs slightly covering his forehead, wearing a dark down jacket and trousers, he rode an electric bike through the alleys and alleys, with freshly picked up in the basket. Express delivery... If it weren't for the very recognizable "Taiwanese Mandarin", many people would mistake Lin Yuyang for a local.

  Lin Yuyang is from New Taipei City, Taiwan, and has been married to Wang Man, a girl from Xi'an, for 6 years.

Moving into Beijing Hutong two years ago is now in their opinion "the most correct decision".

  In 2021, they will live in a small courtyard near the Lama Temple.

Lin Yuyang said that living in a hutong brings him closer to Beijing's traditional architecture.

The food and beverages in the vicinity of the house are a fusion of national flavors, which just meets the needs of his daily life.

  "I came to Beijing for love." Wang Man joked.

The 31-year-old girl from Xi'an likes to spend weekends with her husband exploring novel shops, tasting coffee and visiting art galleries in Hutongs.

Riding a bicycle through the alleys in summer reminded her of her childhood instantly.

  They met in Taiwan in 2016, and their encounter was "like a bridge in an idol drama" - encountering on the road, falling in love in Xiamen, wedding in Xi'an, and settling in Beijing.

"Marriage is a brave decision. In addition to spatial distance, it is also necessary to overcome differences in personality and culture." Wang Man said.

  "Xian dialect and Hokkien are two dialects, and we often have to translate for each other's families." Wang Man said that the cultural differences between the north and the south often create frictions, but because the "three views" are the same, these frictions become a way of knowing each other. The incision, over time, the feelings are more stable.

  The 64-year-old Li Yanping is the landlord of this hutong courtyard, and is called "Uncle Li" by Wang Man and Lin Yuyang.

Since renovating the house in 2015, Uncle Li has welcomed more than 20 tenants at home and abroad.

"I deal with young people in the courtyard every day, and sometimes share fruits and snacks with each other. Life is very interesting." Uncle Li said.

  After the marriage, Wang Man and Lin Yuyang established a WeChat group.

Although they cannot go home often due to the epidemic, the contact and exchanges between families on both sides of the strait have always been warm.

  "I told my family in Taiwan that I have been vaccinated and it is very convenient to go out, so they can rest assured." Lin Yuyang said that the epidemic prevention and control in the mainland gave him "a sense of security".

  During the Spring Festival this year, the two returned to Xi'an to reunite with their families.

In Xi'an, the couple watched the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics with their families.

Talking about the "little cute pigeon" in the opening ceremony, Lin Yuyang said that his family members in Taiwan and overseas made fun of him, "Look at how much the country attaches importance to you, you can't miss a pigeon."

  During the National Day holiday in 2019, Wang Man and his grandparents revisited Taiwan.

On the beach in Hualien, Taiwan, she photographed the backs of two elderly people looking out at the Pacific Ocean. Every time she saw this photo, Lin Yuyang and Wang Man's memories and emotions flashed back to that coast, where they met.

  Just as Taiwanese folk singer Hu Defu wrote in a song: "The earliest hometown, the earliest past event, is the wind blowing slowly from the Pacific Ocean..." (Participating in the writing: Wei Siyuan and Wu Jinfu)
