I'm born and growth
born is something that happened in the past. So you should say ... I was born
growth is a noun, you need to use the verb form - grow - in past tense - grew -.... I was born and grew
since this is about you growing up and not you growing something like flowers ... I was born and grew up
Final Sentence: I was born and grew up in Wenzhou.
My Preferred Sentence: I was born and raised in Wenzhou.
This gives the feeling that someone took care of you (possibly more humble and grateful) and is a little more commonly used.
