87岁的老大妈（老太），一定是老共产党员了。 阳离子的男友好棒，眼力真好！快点结婚。

Hi Katherine, thanks for another great video. I have iu mien (yao ethnic) friends in the states and I always wonder how does the Yao language compare to Han Chinese languages. Perhaps if you're still there you could ask if it were easy for the locals to learn Chinese? What are the similarities and differences?

这位奶奶那个年代的人，成为共产党员并没有什么政治意味，他们根本没有什么政治倾向😂我觉得而像一种荣誉，因为只有少数人能入党，证明她是比一般人更优秀

Your vlogs are the best, so so so cool thank you !!

Thank you for the video. I have never been to such mountain villages. I looked up Youling Village in Sanpai Town, Liannan Yao Autonomous County online, and it indeed has a very long history. Youling Ancient Village was established in the late Tang Dynasty, expanded in the Song Dynasty, and flourished during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is one of the ancient villages with the most intact preservation of Yao ethnic culture. However, the living conditions were poor. Seeing that the ancient village was helped and relocated with support from the government, I really appreciate the practical efforts being made.

From your video, i feel like that is what people suppose to do to get alone with each other. People in the village are nice, kind. 👍👍

3:23 go home american! 🤗🤗

厉害厉害，第一次见到外国人能给认出《红灯记》，说实话，很多中国人自己都不一定认识。

Fresh meats, vegies and fruits, good for your health. Thank you for showing

Real life, not the show case, thank you!

This granny is a true gem ❤Lovely to see some out-of-the-way places through your lens, as always!

More please! Better than the big cities, thank you

Your parents are so cute and they really love so much. Thanks for sharing your adventures. It's truly inspiring to see how you communicate with the local people in China and they seem so welcoming and nice to you.

I am just so impressed on how you know to get to all these places and create this wonderful video.

The YT algorithm seems to work great. Just uploaded a vlog about visiting a village and interacting with a 92 old wholesome granny there and received this video recommendation 😁 Chinese are build different!

i literally visied the same village and exact same granma on last national holiday.🎉

Another great video. Thank you both!

Thank you Katherine for sharing with us such a unique part of incredible China....Greetings from Down Under.

小孩子有点没礼貌了，但是这年纪又挺正常的，心直口快😅

你拍的视频非常真实，点赞❤

In the overview of the village, You can see there are some empty space between house, which is regular trend in Chinese, the vanishing village. Most of young generation left village to town or city. And then some traditional things will lost too after older people gone. Thanks Katherine recording the current status of Chinese Villages.

Grandma's dialect is closer to Cantonese than Mandarin. You didn't expect that, right? 🤣

where is little wang zhong?

This was great, absolutely fantastic video.

Thank you so much for this wonderful video of a little-known side of China full of its own unique charms. Truly appreciate the locals sharing a little bit of their story and culture with us 😊

How do you find the place

Very few people provide this kind of content of China. Thank you so much. BTW, the stories that Grandma must have....She went through the Great Leap Forward, The Cultural Revolution, the Red Guards and ETC. Tough lady - Respect.

Such a heartwarming video!

小阳和小艾是不是都有点瘦了，多吃点蛋白。

07:21 Totally understandable given that you had a neon green room 😃

发展好快，连南之前是广东最贫困的一个县，以前全是土屋。

By the way, the museum is the big red hall that you had been to.

Hey! Welcome to my home town Liannan! If you have some time, you may visit the museum in the central town (sanjiang), and on the 3rd floor of the museum, there's some collection of my grandpa. I really hope you could make a visit, it would be fun. Feel free to contact me :)

That little three wheeler tuk tuk at 1:04 I got one of them and one similar I imported from China a couple of years ago. I use it a lot

👍

小家伙学到的英文都很简单，go home ,go to school,或者类似的，再多估计他也不会了，更理解不了让一个外国人回家是啥意思，所以不用误解，他的本意大概就是，‘American，I will go home，bye’，如果是个熟练掌握英文的成年人这么说，那大概率是个极端主义者。

Hi Kathy, where is Xiao Wang? Did you two break up? Just curious😊😊😊

Even a kid knows US gov always provoke wars so he said American go home, sad.

消防栓真是笑喷了。

The grandma with colorful cost is so lovely (she is a member of CCP, unbelivable) !

No wonder there is 1.4 billion people. Mass weddings, mass babies!

I think you travel and venture more than the locals in China ... Is it true ?

Your interaction will the local people is priceless . Have you ever had awkward moments when it leaves you speechless? Just a wonderful video.! Sending you much love❤ from Richmond, VA. Jim and Harriet P.S. We just signed up to your Patreon Page at the mid level. All the best.

The old grandma and the man with the pink color hair was the highlight of this very interesting video!
