Why do some people in Wenzhou speak Minnan dialect?

Some people in Wenzhou speak Minnan dialect for the following reasons:

Recently, I fell in love with a high-quality video screenwriter in Wenzhou. Hello, Huang. She always watches her videos and live broadcasts when she is free. Friends who like her know that she is from Wenzhou, but her hometown dialect is not Wenzhou dialect, but Minnan dialect, which makes new friends who pay attention to her mistakenly think that she is from Fujian. In fact, some people in Wenzhou also speak Minnan dialect.

Minnan dialect spoken by Wenzhou people is mostly distributed in most areas of Cangnan and a few areas of Pingyang with a long history. During the reign of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty, in order to recover the Zheng regime in Taiwan Province Province, suppress the economy of Taiwan Province Province, completely cut off the trade between the mainland and Taiwan Province Province, and avoid the predatory sexual harassment of the Zheng regime in Taiwan Province Province, the policy of moving to the sea was implemented.

Residents of five coastal provinces in Fujian 13 counties all moved to Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other regions, including most of Cangnan in Wenzhou and a small part of Pingyang. Since then, they have become new immigrants in this city and have been living here.

Because they immigrated in batches and did not live with the residents of inland provinces, they kept their own dialect, Minnan dialect. Until now, this part of Wenzhou people still speak Minnan dialect, which is the history of Wenzhou people speaking Minnan dialect.
