In the past, Dam Vac (Vinh Phuc) had many fish and shrimps, and the inhabitants of the lagoon were proficient in fishing. Dam Vac has a village called Moi village. The whole hamlet is on a promontory like a peninsula in the middle of a lagoon. The whole village has only 5.7 shack roofs. The greatest assets are the boat and the nets. Every day, children wrap clothes in raincoats and swim to the shore to go to school. You guys enthusiastically taught us how to catch lots of fish. Some of us from To Hieu secondary school came back to Cau Phao, two friends from Moi hamlet looked at the lagoon, looked up at the sky, and watched the treetops sway in the wind. Suddenly a friend shouted: Go immediately get a big basket to catch fish. Sure enough, about half an hour later, schools of fish swam back and forth and rushed at each other, racing to jump ashore. I have never seen a fish jump like that. Everyone competes to collect fish. An old woman shouted: “Don’t make the fish jump”. But after seeing too many fish, she also gave up the taboo and rushed to catch fish. In the morning, our children did not study, we went fishing. I fished forever but the fish did not catch the bait. The brother sitting next to him kept jerking. My grandfather told me that my long-shouldered son only went to work as a student, and his younger brother killed fish. At noon, some of us went to catch boys. The mussels of the Vac lagoon were very large, at first we kept carrying the plastic pot, pushing the pot while stepping on the mud to fumble. When you see a boy, you dive down to catch it. Later, the friends in Moi village taught how to catch with a stick. Choose two bamboo sticks to tie the rope, the two boys pull the rope on the bottom of the dress. Seeing that there are mussels and fishes, they quickly dive down to catch them. It only takes about two hours to fill the pot of mussels. Hai’s friend from Vien Nine is very good at catching. According to Dan Khai Quang, those who live far away from the lagoon also went to catch them. In the afternoon, we invited each other to the banks of the lagoon with many caves to fish for rice husks, and in the afternoon my brother and I caught dozens of fish. Every child is fat. At dusk, both the boys and girls of the brick village invited each other to go fishing for shrimp. The fishing rod is just a small bamboo branch, the fishing line is a white thread, and the hook is a bent bicycle brake line. Big and delicious crayfish, you can even catch the back of the basket. There are many ways to fish with nets, fishing nets, cymbals… Many households live by fishing. Why in the old days (in the 60s and 70s of the last century) shrimp and fish were so plentiful and delicious. Oh, when I go home, I wish I could be like the old days!

At 12 noon, Mrs. Nguyen Thi Chi (67 years old, from Ben Tre) returned to a shack in Vinh Loc B commune (Binh Chanh district, Ho Chi Minh City). Due to the complicated epidemic situation, her business of selling lottery tickets has been severely affected. Going all morning, she has not sold more than half of the lottery tickets received from last night. “Selling too slow, I’m worried this month I won’t be able to pay for the room. Fortunately, the landlord has announced that he will cut my rent by half,” said Ms. Chi, adding that she would tighten spending. To save money, every day, she eats only white rice and dried fish that was given to her by a neighbor. Living in a difficult situation, she was very happy when she heard that her rent was reduced. This joy also comes to more than 300 people who are renting at Residence No. 1 (Hoc Mon district, Ho Chi Minh City). Mr. Pham Trung Hieu, the owner of the accommodation, said that during the recent Covid-19 epidemics, the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Worker Support Center and the accommodation have implemented many programs to support tenants. Currently, many motel owners have exempted or reduced rent for employees. During this epidemic, he also reduced the rent for more than 300 people staying here. “We give gifts to workers who are renting and reduce the room rate by 50%. The accommodation is supported by a sponsor of the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Worker Support Center. We will organize people to come and receive free rice next Saturday,” he said. Meanwhile, in a row of more than 20 rooms for rent on Nguyen Cong Hoan Street (Ward 7, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City), Mr. Ho De is free of charge for some tenants here. This is the fourth time that Mr. De has exempted or reduced the rent. He said: “Three previous epidemics, I also exempted and reduced rent. Poor families rent here for many years, I reduce the money. For students, students with difficulties, I always free rent.” Ms. Only received a reduction in the rent of the room from the lessor. To save money, she only eats white rice with the dried fish given to her. Local people said that Mr. De’s exemption and reduction of rent is not uncommon. Because more than 40 years ago, he had taken care of, even for people with difficult circumstances, poor students to stay in free accommodation. Leave a house of tens of billions, treat tenants like family In particular, recently, he completed a will with the content of leaving 2 houses worth tens of billions of dong for the lonely elderly and poor students – free of charge. Ho Thi Nhu Quynh, a student at the University of Industry 4, who is renting here, said: “Every epidemic, Mr. De also visits and asks for the innkeepers”. “He put up a notice to give everyone a 50% discount on rent. However, when he knew which families were too difficult, he reduced them from 60-70% of the rent. Some people are completely exempted from rent by him,” Nhu Quynh said. Similar to Mr. De, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy (owner of a motel room in Tan Quy Ward, Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City) also reduced the rent and space for the poor from last May. This is the fourth time that Mr. Ho De has exempted or reduced the rent. However, until this June, the epidemic situation in Ho Chi Minh City was still complicated, so she continued to reduce the rent. She even actively reduced the rent of her already very low business premises. Mr. Nguyen Van Tai, the tenant of Ms. Thuy’s premises, said that he and his wife rented the business front in front of Ms. Thuy’s inn to sell soft drinks. Although located in a large street frontage, crowded with people, convenient for business, Ms. Thuy rented it to him at a very cheap price. “In this epidemic, Ho Chi Minh City was separated for a long time, so I sold very little. One day, we barely sold anything, it was very difficult. Fortunately, Ms. Thuy actively reduced the rent. This has helped our family a lot during this tight time,” said Mr. Tai. Thuy shared, most of the tenants here have been with her for many years. According to each person’s circumstances, Ms. Thuy will reduce the rent differently. She said: “In the epidemic, people who work are unemployed, business people are sluggish… Therefore, their income has also decreased a lot. How can I collect enough rent? I try to reduce the rent, rent the premises so that they can help some or that part. Right now, I just want to help workers overcome the pandemic so that they can stabilize their lives and send money back to their hometowns.” Like Mrs. Thuy, Mr. Hieu said, he always considers the people who are renting with him as “family members”. When his “family” was severely affected by the epidemic, he could not sit still. Therefore, even though he knew that he would lose a large amount of income when reducing the rent by 50% for more than 300 people, he still tried to do it.

The opening hours of the shop can be at five o’clock in the morning or sometimes earlier. At five o’clock in the morning, Uncle Ba called to buy a pack of cigarettes. There are times when Mr. Bay comes over to buy tea bags and comes back to drink in the morning. Sometimes the night has completely sunk, the surrounding landscape has been quiet, the aunt of the two houses also often calls the door, buys a few packets of noodles, she complains that she has nothing to eat in the afternoon, so she “feels sorry”. My mother’s “notebook” is very thick. It was a student notebook, my mother used it to record who still owes some money from the shop. Every family in my neighborhood works in the fields, and it takes more than three months to harvest rice when there is a shortage of rice, fish sauce, monosodium glutamate, and sugar, so they have to “buy on credit” and wait until the rice season. Perhaps my mother’s way of doing business is very special, so when she has money or is short of money, everyone visits her shop. If you sell mango, add more mango, if you sell eggplant, add some onions, when you buy garlic, my mother will add chili. And yet, when anyone goes to buy things, carrying a child, when leaving, mom often carries a candy or a cake. The kids in my neighborhood love hanging out in front of my mom’s grocery store. When they were tired, my mother would scoop them up for a refreshing cup of iced tea. They like to enjoy a glass of shaved ice made by my mother. Because if you have money, you can pay it immediately, if you don’t have money, ask for another meal. Supermarkets are now full of big markets, but the whole neighborhood never forgets to support my mother’s grocery store. Because of the kilograms of “gratitude” rice when there was a shortage of rice, I sold it to the season. Or the meager tamarind to cook sour soup, my mother said, just a little bit, don’t take money. Or how can they forget that my mother’s love has taken all the money from the sale and lent it to Aunt Tu to take him to the hospital for an acute appendectomy… No matter how life develops, the village friendship is always cultivated as a beautiful cultural feature of the river delta of my hometown. People can’t live forever with nostalgia, but good memories can’t be forgotten. My four brothers and sisters have grown up with their mother’s hands, from the income of a small roadside shop. Miss my mom’s grocery store!

Located on the river right in the heart of Hai Duong city, Hai Duong province is a small hamlet of the people in the fishing boat village. One of the families who have lived here the longest is Mr and Mrs. Vu Thi To and Cao Van Vuong. This family has 9 people including 3 generations. To’s youngest son, before going to work abroad, participated in many swimming competitions for 9 years and won many excellent medals. Although the house is small, Mrs. To has a special place to display her son’s medal. Currently, on the houseboat, there are Mrs. To and her husband and the youngest son with 2 grandsons. Although it is a houseboat, but with the help of families on the shore, the house always has electricity and clean water. The daily livelihood of Mr and Mrs To as well as most of the people in the village is fishing. From dawn, Mrs. To wakes up to prepare tools and waits for her husband to pick up the boat. Like Mrs. To’s family, after returning from fishing, they often hold a market right on the front bank of the barrier dike wall. The markets usually start around 3pm every day. The people in the fishing village consider each other as family members, they are willing to share the work and the work of this house is also that of the other. When this family goes fishing at night and cannot return to take their children to school, another family will take the children to school. Children’s way to school is also very special. Many households do not make a bridge to the mainland but use another small boat to move. When the day’s work was basically completed, the men in the village rested, played chess to relax, and bonded more with the village. In the evening, the houseboat also lights up to prepare a full and warm family meal, mixed with the laughter of children.

Here, in addition to enjoying ripe green strawberries and attractive dishes made from many species of fish, visitors can also experience and relax with country life. In particular, visitors are also delighted to “check in” in the cool atmosphere of the fruit garden and immense green melaleuca forests. Mr. Duong Van Chau (living in Ca Mau province), said that when visiting the strawberry garden, he and his family members feel happy and comfortable. “This will be one of the unforgettable memories of my family during this holiday”, Mr. Chau shared Here are some pictures at the green strawberry garden with fruit that many people enjoy “check in”: Mr. Liem’s ​​green and fruit-filled strawberry garden is chosen by many people as his holiday destination Ripe and wrong strawberries are one of the attractions for tourists Guests enjoy the cool country air beside the bamboo beds under the strawberry root Young visitors enjoy when “check in” at the strawberry garden

People in the fishing village (Lake Ea Sup Lower) go fishing Oasis Looming behind the green-covered mountain, more than a hundred small wooden houses located at the foot of the mountain facing the immense water surface of Lower Ea Sup Lake (Ea Sup town, Ea Sup district, Dak Lak province). In the afternoon, the wind was cold, the garden of green trees hugged the lake bed, fishermen’s boats drifted … The households here have migrated from the West, most of them do not have arable land, live mainly by fishing. Everyday, people hire what they do. Mr. Nguyen Van Hung has worked as a fisherman here for more than a decade. People in this neighborhood all drifted away from the West to live by fishing, catching crabs and snails. Fish is the main source of income for each family. Around 3-4 pm, people get on boats to let go of their nets, and around 4-5 am the next morning to remove their nets. “Living in close attachment to the lake bed for more than ten years, although the fishing is sometimes less, life is still fun. Subtracting all the expenses for a day I still have about 2-3 hundred thousand VND left. In the Central Highlands there are few places where there are fish like this Ea Sup Lake ”, Mr. Hung said. The road to Lake Ea Soup is boiled with the smell of dried fish. On the porch of the solidly built house, Mr. Phung Van Thanh (SN 1968) quickly smashed each fish on a thin net. He shared that life outside Binh Dinh was difficult, so the family immigrated here to make a living for more than ten years. The new land has inclement weather, sand and sand, so that it is difficult for agriculture to take care of family life. Lake Ea Soup upper and lower volume of water year round, so there are many types of fish. People living around the lake, at first thinking of earning a few fish to improve their meals, who thought this was the main income, each day a family also earns hundreds of thousands of dong. Hunching over, the batch of fish dried on a woven net that was carefully shaded in the sun, he said, each day he and his wife pulled about 20-30 kg of fish, after drying, people came to buy them at home. The fish is clean and the quality is delicious, so they love it. The fishermen live and stick in this lake bed through the rainy season, the source of fisheries is extremely important. They only catch fish by traditional means using canoes, nets, fishing rods. This is a non-destructive fishing method that nurtures aquatic resources, so that people can have a long-term attachment to the fishing profession. Several dozen households for a living by fishing on the Buon Tua Sah hydroelectric lake (Krong No commune, Lak district) are familiar with the name of the fishing village. This small fishing village was established in 2009, when some people in the West came to work in fishing. They build boats, build houses right on the water. Every afternoon, people row out to sail away to release nets, light up the lights to chase fish late at night, early in the morning, dream up and remove fish in time to sell to traders. Mr. Hoang Van Dung (from An Giang) shared: “This job is very precarious, we can still work on normal days, but when it rains and storms, we are hungry. The family’s piece of rice looks forward to the net batches every night ”. The floating life on the river made many children drop out of school halfway. Hoang My Quyen had to quit school since 7th grade, stood a stall selling dried fish to passersby, and shared: “On a lucky day, I sold a few hundred thousand, but one day I could not sell any weight of fish. Here children only learn to be literate ”. People rowing boat picking lotus mirrors Quietly making a living Ms. Le Thi Hien, a resident of the lake bed, said that the fishing profession had to wake up early, sailing up the lake to drop the net. On average, each fishing trip, they collect 10-15kg of fish, mainly tilapia, snakehead (also called fruit fish), goby … Each month, they earn 4-5 million VND. Fishing is becoming more and more difficult because it depends on the weather. Far in the middle of Lake Ea Sup, three or four people were diving in the water. Mrs. Pham Thi Thuong held a bunch of lotus flowers from the lake, her whole body soaked with the smell of mud. Washed hands, took bread to hang from the fast food truck, she said: “In the morning I have to fast to soak in the water to pick the lotus, because if I eat it, it will make my stomach hard to wade. The work of picking lotus lotus must be skillful and gentle to avoid the broken lotus. The pickers had to dive for several hours in the water, crawling to the lotus root ”. According to Mr. Phung Van Thanh, who has worked for more than 10 years with fishing in Ea Sup Lake and Lower Lake, here fishing gives people a high and stable income. This is the freshwater fish production area of ​​the province. Fish are sold in the locality and other provinces such as Saigon, Binh Duong … She also did not remember how many years she had been following this profession of picking lotus lotus, only remembering every year in May she went to the lake to pick it up and sell it. In the season, early in the morning, she leaves home and leaves until noon from 11-12 o’clock. Every day, I can find a lot of lotus flowers, pick more than 10 bunches, sell 15 thousand dong / bunch. In this district, each time the family welcomes guests away from home, they buy them to make rice shrimp salad, which is both delicious, nutritious and easy to process. Many people put large quantities of sour salt to eat. In the afternoon in the border district, the sun is hotter, the heat is directly in the face, Mr. Le Hoang Tien, a resident of the lake area, prepares his equipment to board the boat. He said he and his wife often pick a lotus mirror and have to row a boat to a new deep water area, where the water is low and small. The mirror to be picked about is divided into two, the one that leaves the mirror intact and the one that separates the lotus seeds. Most customers choose the cup available. Sen in the main season, each day he and his wife can harvest more than 30kg for 30,000 VND / kg. “Many people in Buon Ma Thuot city often ask acquaintances here to buy old lotus seeds and peel them to dry them for long-term preservation. Sometimes picking is not enough for them to buy. Here, life is hard, but there are jobs to make money. In the evening, fish nets are released, while in the lotus season, picking and watching lotus in the daytime, ”Mr. Tien said.

According to the concept, the person who stormed the land will greatly affect the destiny and the business of the host family for the whole year. If you can choose someone to storm the house of the right age, that year will bring peace and prosperity to the family.

In addition, the feng-shui expert also said that the ages that can break the house and open new goods for the new year of Tan Suu 2021 are relatively good. , Quy Mao (1963), An Ty (1965), Binh Ngo (1966), Ky Dau (1969), Tan Dau (1981), Quy Hoi (1983), Giap Ty (1984), Binh Dan (1986), Dinh Mao (1987), Ky Ty (1989), Nham Than (1992). Choosing the age of the ground is considered quite sophisticated and important. According to a number of history books, in the past, people even chose people to storm the ground based on characteristics such as lighthearted, open-minded, cautious person, more importantly, that person must be beautiful; avoid choosing people running down, sick, sick … According to the book Learn about traditional Tet in Vietnamese culture , in order to fulfill this custom, after New Year’s Eve, people were asked to storm the ground out of the house. Before coming to the ground, they often go to a certain temple to burn incense and ask for money for their homeowners.

The village is located in Alley 184, Nguyen Xi Street, Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City, with dozens of households. They live crowded in makeshift motels several square meters wide. The house is cramped, hot weather makes the elderly and children tired. At noon, everyone couldn’t seem to sleep. They gathered to a housing area with shaded trees above to shelter from the sun. The houses here are roofed with metal roofs, they look old and quite tidy, the walls are also very old. Many apartments are dilapidated, about to deteriorate or are directly exposed to sunlight. Mrs. Tran Thi Diem (80 years old), working as a cicada picker – a resident of the village, has been tired for the past few days. “It is very hot at noon, especially around 13:00. My house only has a small fan but it is already damaged. Now I have to use a fan to dispel the heat,” said Diem. A house about 6 square meters wide but has quite a few people They said that they could not sleep because of the heat at noon, and had to lie down to rest, surf the entertainment phone. In the afternoon and evening, they were pouring out onto the street, practicing picking cicadas. This is not the main residence of the “cicadas residents”. Most of them rented again for about 1.5 million VND / unit. The inn has not been repaired for many years, so it is dilapidated, empty first, open back. Mrs. Thuan complains that the house she rented is now no longer a place to avoid sunlight and rain effectively. She repeatedly asked the landlord to fix it, but it was not agreed. Ms. Anh Mai, a resident of this homestay for nearly 20 years, wishes to find a better place to live in her old age. However, she said that it was just a wish, a dream. She herself has absolutely no money to move. A man in the neighborhood reinforced a plastic canvas on the roof. Many people here expect hot weather to pass soon. A woman covered her towel as she went outside to look for her loved one. “I am old, must know how to protect my health, avoid the heat to avoid colds,” she said. The fan works at full capacity in high outdoor temperatures. The houses are temporary, with no economic conditions, most of the residents in the neighborhood do not use air conditioners. Mrs. Chao and her husband talked at noon. Usually, she said, this is the time when her family rested after many hours of wandering on the road to pick up bottles. Ms. Chao complained that the electricity bill will be raised about 1.5 times more than last month. This puts people on even more of a burden. Despite the sun at 13 noon, Ms. Quyet (72 years old, who lives in the village) still goes to the street to pick up and buy scrap materials. She said that she is old, has no children, no accumulated assets, so she still has to make a living. Like Mrs. Quyet, some people in the village struggled to work in the hot sun. The poor village is close to temporary houses, and is home to dozens of households who practice picking cicadas in Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City.

Hanoi is a city surrounded by the Red River with great flow and fertile alluvial deposits. With long-standing living characteristics, two riversides are always crowded places. Many big bridges in Hanoi connect the two banks of the Red River such as Nhat Tan, Chuong Duong, Vinh Tuy, Thanh Tri, … Stretching from the residential areas of Hoan Kiem, Ba Dinh, Tay Ho districts to the middle of the river is a blank stretch of land with a green color of trees and crops. Although it has a large area, this place where people are used to calling it “middle ground” is just a place where people cultivate, increase production and make beaches. Mr. Pham Van Thi today visited the garden and harvested water spinach. He has 2 sao of land along the river. Every season, he kept a different kind of vegetable, and he planted it for his family to eat and sell at the same time. Rubbing his hands onto the wet, wet field ground, Mr. Thi shared: “The land along the river should be fertile. Vegetables and grass are up, no need to fertilize much nitrogen. Just sowing, watering, clearing the grass is a vegetable garden for harvest ”. However, the fertile land is so, but the plants here are mainly: bananas, corn, potatoes and Northern vegetables. These are cultivars with little capital and short harvest time. The reason for planting these trees is because this is the land area of ​​the city, people only plant trees in the “temporary” mind, when planning will be returned. The entrance to the beach in the middle of the Red River is covered in a green color with rows of bananas, vegetable gardens mixed with dense vegetation. If you are not familiar with the way down, it is easy to get lost by the blinded view. – Squid! Where are you running? Come back. The voice of Mr. Vu calling his dog so that it does not get lost on the way to the beach. Every afternoon, Mr. Vu and his companion ride a bicycle across the Long Bien Bridge, together to cool off along the Red River. Along the riverbank, there are 3-4 large and small beaches. Each beach also went to dozens of people. From children, young people to the elderly, calls to each other, laughs stirred up both sides of the river. No one remembers when these riverside beaches have existed, but for a long time, swimming here is a very familiar living image. Located close to the edge of the Red River, Phuc Xa (Ba Dinh) inn with old cement-tiled roofs has been around for more than 20 years. The inns are long, connected with dozens of rooms. This is known as the lodging area for people from other provinces who come to Hanoi to earn a living with low income. Most of them are workers working in Long Bien night market such as selling, loading, towing … Ms. Pham Thi Ngat is a State official, mobilized to Hanoi in 1992. She owns 30 rooms of about 500 square meters in Phuc Xa ward. In the past, this was a part of arable land along the river, to grow vegetables. Later she poured land, built a room and rented it at a cheap price. The small rooms are the accommodation of 2-3 workers, the area of ​​which just fits a bed, wardrobe, cooking shelf is about 10 m2. People in the neighborhood go to work from 22:00 the day before until 6-7 o’clock the next day. They spend most of their daytime time resting, eating and drinking in their rooms. Until more than 15 o’clock, the inn is still quiet. Only Ms. Khuong and a few people woke up, and she pulled some stained plastic chairs from the house to sit and enjoy the wind. – Wake up, get up here to sit cool, Mrs. Hai, Fresh! The voice of Miss Area was loud enough for Miss Tuoi’s room at the far end of the inn to hear. The story is the same every day, just revolves around the shopping, selling … but always juicy. While talking to each other to eat fruit and hot weather, we buy ice cream and yogurt. Heaven in Hanoi on hot days is considered “harsh” extremely for the neighbors. Sitting in the inn at dusk, Mr. Pham Van Binh dined with sweat drops on his forehead. “In the day it is hot and can’t sleep, and at night there is no strength to go to work,” he lamented. Ms. Tuoi has been working in Hanoi for 4 years now. The room less than 15 m2 is where she lives with her husband and daughter “in and out”. Her health is not good, so the main income in the family is still under the care of her husband and daughter. Occasionally, she went to Long Bien market to take some shrimp and bring them to retail to increase her spending. The temporary accommodation is built on a cultivated land, without a red book. Although she pays full land tax every year, Ms. Ngat and the whole hamlet always have the spirit of “temporary residence”. If the city has land to build, they will move. “The living quarters of the working people are not spacious, beautiful, everything is temporary, but everyone living together is always happy,” said Ms. Tuoi. She added, there are families living here for decades, since the first days the village was built. Just like that, there are kids who have grown up here with their parents. “Grandma let me go ashore”, the boy Hieu called to Mrs. Oanh. For people in Phao hamlet, “going ashore” means going to work, going out, and “going in the water” means going home. The old boat with an area of ​​about 20 m2 has been the house of Mrs. Oanh’s family for nearly 20 years. The whole family of 3 is 3 generations: Grandmother, youngest daughter and grandchild. Nguyen Tien Hieu (5 years old) was born here, can also be considered a Hanoi boy, although Hieu’s birth certificate and household registration must be very difficult to do. Ms. Nguyen Thi Oanh, a farmer from Yen Thanh (Nghe An). She was one of the people in Phao village for the longest time. She did not remember the year she came here, the woman only remembered that her youngest daughter was only 7 years old. Over the years, her boat house has been damaged, or even broken, during the great floods. However, she still repaired to stay, because life here “is still easier than in the countryside”. The Red River is in high water season, every time a boat goes back and forth, the water waves rush into her family’s boat, the boat keeps rocking all day. However, with grandchildren, “it will be familiar to live a long life,” said Mrs. Oanh. The people of Phao village, nearly 30 dozen households, live close together by the river bank. Until now, their activities have no electricity or water. So is Mrs. Oanh’s family. A few units came down to support people with solar panels, batteries. However, every day when the sun is strong, the electricity is strong, and like in winter, the whole space in the boat is dimly lit because there is not enough electricity. Although it is about 3 km from the center, but Phao hamlet wants to connect and move back and forth with the city, there is only one road from the middle of Long Bien Bridge sloping down. A hurried, bumpy, concrete road less than 1m wide with grass cluttering on both sides. Young Hieu attended a private kindergarten across the river. Every day, at 6:30, Mrs. Oanh took her bicycle to school, and picked her up again in the afternoon. A few days ago, while taking Hieu back from school, when we took the bicycle from Long Bien Bridge down the steep road, our two grandchildren fell down and had to wait for everyone around to help. The accident also made her knee aching so far. The life of the people of Phao village was like that, when the big country came, they ran ashore. They stayed at the neighbor’s house. Soon, for a few days, for a whole month. That’s why everyone wants the flood season to be short for life to be stable. When asked, if she later proceeded to plan the land on both sides of the river, where would her family live, Mrs. Oanh just looked at the far bridge, dropping her thin shoulders: Where is not known. At least there is no cost of rent here like the lodgers.

The village head, Nguyen Dinh Hoa, said that the traditional craft of making multi-craft cakes in Trung Yen has been around for a long time. According to the calculation of the village chief, this trade village has existed for a hundred years ago. His life, his father’s life has done this profession and is followed by descendants.

Mr. Nguyen Dinh Hoa – hamlet chief said: On average, every day, households consume 5-6 quintals of raw rice for the production of rice cakes, thus contributing to the consumption of agricultural products in the area. Photo: Tran Canh Yen. The mass-produced spring rolls undergo sun drying for just a few hours to collect. As for sesame cakes, they must be dried all day dry enough to bake before consuming. Photo: Tran Canh Yen. Each household producing spring rolls attracts 15-20 laborers with a working day of 170,000-250,000 VND / person. Children and the elderly still contribute labor to making rice cakes. Photo: Tran Canh Yen. The process of rolling the cake and collecting the rice cakes was hard and very urgent. If it is sunny, the drying cake starts to reach the point where it will pull out on the drying pad, then immediately collect it from the torn crackers; When it rains, people hang the cake “put their feet on the neck” and collect the cake from the wet. Photo: Tran Canh Yen. Trung Yen’s baker has contributed to poverty reduction and legitimate enrichment. Mr. Nguyen Dinh Hoa said: For every quintal of raw rice for making rice cakes, minus the cost, he also earns a profit of 900 thousand – 1 million dong.
