Because women could not be found to wash the changed clothes, the employers once needed to ship dirty clothes to Hawaii for washing. But Hawaiian women were reluctant to do the time-consuming and laborious laundry work. Later, the employer was only able to transport the clothes to China and wash them on the coastal Guangdong women. * * * Cantonese have a thousand-year immigration tradition. In the mid-nineteenth century, the Qing Dynasty was facing internal and external troubles, and the people were not living. It coincided with the news that a gold mine was discovered in California, USA, on the other side of the ocean, and Guangdong residents along the coast rushed to tell each other. Since then, a huge wave of Chinese immigration has been set off again. "Being a new immigrant, cut off the first half of your life, find a new motherland and continue to be a man." "When a new immigrant, reborn after a poor journey, open a barren land at dawn." Probably no one wants to get rid of the lyric description of Huang Weiwen's "Don't Go Home in This Life". The Chinese Americans worked hard and grudges in a segregated society more than a hundred years ago. They falsely claimed to their families that the savings from selling clothes at the "clothing store" and squeezing food and clothing were what they described as the wealth that Jinshan had made. In the old days, a Chinese who had been in the manual laundry industry for decades wrote a song called "A Career of Eight Pounds": "An iron weighs eight pounds, and it’s not idle for twelve hours." It turns out that everything is just "for gasping." Just like this iron, clearly carrying the high temperature of Baidu, still posing a high attitude "vindictive" with the world. What's the point of being strong? No, but not so, people are nothing.
