Even in the fast-growing economy of Shanghai, there are still some old-fashioned alleyways left. There, local people were cooling off, playing mahjong, or working in the alleys. The woman in the photo is one of the workers.

The woman with the large bowl in the corner of the alley is holding a bamboo leaf in her hand. She was rolling glutinous rice in bamboo leaves to make Zongzi. She was dexterously tying the rolled glutinous rice one after another with a string in her mouth. The bowl in front of the woman was filled to the brim with glutinous rice, not enough for household consumption. It looked like she was rolling it for work.
