About this Episode
Welcome to 听故事说中文, the podcast where stories come alive to help you improve your Chinese language proficiency and cultural competency.
Today, we're sharing a nostalgic tale of 桂花雨, or "Osmanthus Rain," a story that takes us back to the author's childhood in her coastal hometown. It's a time when the air is filled with the enchanting fragrance of blooming osmanthus flowers, and the entire village comes together to harvest this delicate treasure before the looming threat of typhoon season. Through the eyes of a child, we'll experience the joy of shaking the trees, watching the golden petals fall like fragrant rain, and the warmth of family traditions that turn these blossoms into tea and festive treats.
This episode is a celebration of memory, scent, and the deep connection between people and their homeland. So, sit back, listen closely.
