In fact, it is really necessary to say whether sleeping is "going to Suzhou" or mainly in Jianghuai area. As for the reason, there are several statements:

1. I heard a saying before that because Suzhou's reputation is "Xanadu" and "Water Dream", the dream of sleeping is equal to "going to Suzhou".

2. There is also a saying that in the early Ming Dynasty, Jiangbei was divided by the Song Dynasty War, so it was moved from Suzhou to Taizhou, which is called "the change of Hongwu" in history. It is said that the first generation of immigrants love to stay in their hometown in Suzhou and dream of returning to a home.

It used to be a common saying that it may take one day to get to Suzhou on the way from Jiaxing to Suzhou, on the boat and the next morning. Just sleeping, so I call sleeping "going to Suzhou". It may also be because in Jiaxing dialect, "Shu" and "Su" are even numbers, and "Sleep" is also called "Su". "Go to the car" with the smile of a sleeping person. Kind of a joke.

When I was a child, I often listened to my elders. "This person went to Suzhou early?" This means that this person has fallen asleep. I may rarely hear the saying after 90 or even 00. However, most locals who are used to speaking Jiaxing dialect may not be very clear about this, but it is said that he only acted according to this after listening to his long life.
