"Storybook."

"What have you learned from reading storybooks every day?"

Speaking of this, Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan have something to talk about.

The two brothers took Grandpa Zhou's hand and started talking about various interesting things.

The two children are studious and are now very interested in the world map, and Grandpa Zhou is an expert in this field.

The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren asked and answered each other, and the chat sounded quite professional.

But Grandpa Zhou underestimated Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan. The two children were curious about everything and had a lot of questions.

Grandpa Zhou drank more than a dozen cups of tea that morning, and finally found an excuse to go to the bathroom, leaving the mess to Grandma Zhou.

"Grandma, what kind of fish are there in the Pacific Ocean?"

Grandma Zhou: “…”

Too studious.

Grandma Zhou never thought that at her age, she would still have to teach children...

"There are sharks and whales in the Pacific Ocean..."

Grandma Zhou was teaching her two children about deep-sea creatures, but in her heart she was cursing Grandpa Zhou for being a beast and leaving the mess to her.

She was thinking of going to the teahouse to listen to crosstalk today...

"I don't want to learn anymore."

Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan fell into deep thought as they watched Grandma Zeng becoming increasingly irritable. Then they put down their storybooks and ran to Grandma Zhou to act coquettishly.

"Grandma Zeng, Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan are going to the teahouse with you!"

"Let's go!"

Grandma Zhou hurriedly pulled the two children out.

When Grandpa Zhou came out of the bathroom, no one in the house was there.

"Hey! Why don't you take me with you?"

Grandpa Zhou muttered a few words. He also wanted to go to the teahouse to listen to crosstalk!

Why don't you wait for him?

"Let's go! Let's go too!"

Grandpa Zhou shouted to the guard, and the guard quickly helped Grandpa Zhou into the car.

Since its opening, many teahouses have appeared in Kyoto.

Just order a pot of tea and you can sit here for an entire afternoon, listening to crosstalk and watching Peking opera.

Ever since the teahouse was built, the old men and women in the compound love to visit it.

Of course, the price of a pot of tea in a teahouse is much higher than outside.

After all, both crosstalk and Peking opera actors need money.

The most common pot of tea costs 3 yuan, and a better flower tea costs 5 yuan.

If the tea is better, the price will only be higher.

Grandpa Zhou only has 20 yuan in pocket money a month, and he can't bear to go to this teahouse, so he can only eat at Grandma Zhou's.

Grandpa Zhou usually spends most of his pocket money on Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan.

There's nothing I can do about it, the fat great-grandson loves to eat, play and make noises.

If you don’t spend some money, you can’t coax her at all!

When Grandpa Zhou caught up with them to the teahouse, Grandma Zhou was already there with Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan, listening to music and eating melon seeds.

"Bah bah bah."

Xiaoman spat the melon seed shells in her mouth into the plate and handed the remaining melon seed flesh to Xiaoyuan.

Xiaoyuan didn't mind her brother's saliva, and took it with a smile and put it in her mouth.

"It smells so good."

"Great-grandfather is here."

Xiaoman had sharp eyes and saw Grandpa Zhou with a cane from afar.

Grandma Zhou and Xiaoyuan heard it and looked over.

"Quite fast."

Grandma Zhou muttered something, and Grandpa Zhou walked over to them and sat down on the chair next to them.

Grandpa Zhou's face is famous throughout the country.

Anyone who pays attention to national affairs knows him.

The teahouse owner was entertaining guests on the second floor. When he saw Grandpa Zhou downstairs, he took a while to recognize him.

"Quick, send the best tea to table number one downstairs."

"Send some soft pastries."

The teahouse owner quickly ordered his employees to make a pot of good tea and some cakes and send them to Grandpa Zhou, and told them not to offend him.

This is a founding general!

When a founding general comes to his teahouse to listen to music, the status and value of his teahouse will increase!

"Boss, I'll go right away."

"I'll go there myself."

"Yes, boss."

Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan shook their heads to the rhythm of the Peking Opera music, reached to the side with their little hands, grabbed the cakes and stuffed them into their mouths.

"Huh~"

Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan turned their heads in confusion and looked at the pastries in their hands.

This tastes wrong, it's not what they ordered.

"General Zhou, this is the best Longjing tea."

“These are the softest pastries we have.”

"Try it."

Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan turned around and saw several kinds of pastries on the table that they were unfamiliar with.

There was a stranger standing next to Grandpa Zhou, bending over and talking to him.

"Is it tasty?"

Grandpa Zhou looked at the two children, and Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan nodded obediently.

The pastries the boss sent were soft and sweet, exactly what they loved.

"It's delicious."

“Just eat it if you like.

"Wait until General Zhou and the others leave."

"I'll pack another one for the two young comrades."

The teahouse owner is a very discerning person. He is observant, thoughtful in his work, and speaks very pleasantly.

"It cost the boss a lot of money."

Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou adhered to the principle of not taking a penny from the common people, and finally paid for the tea and pastries.

The teahouse owner accepted the money calmly, as important people have their own rules for doing things.

As a small boss, he can't break the rules.

"These two little comrades are twins, and they are very cute."

"Coming to our teahouse to listen to opera adds a touch of fun to the guests in the teahouse,"

"These two cakes are given to the two young comrades."

The teahouse owner speaks very nicely.

He doesn't deliberately show off in front of Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou, no wonder he can make money.

Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan looked at Grandpa Zhou, and Grandpa Zhou nodded.

Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan stepped forward and took the pastries given by the teahouse owner with both hands.

"thank you boss."

"Thank you, boss."

"You're welcome, young comrades."

As soon as Xu Qingluo and Zhou's mother returned home, they received cakes presented to them by the two children.

"Did you go to the teahouse today?"

As soon as Zhou's mother saw the packaging of the pastries, she knew where they came from.

This teahouse has been very popular in Kyoto recently, and she plans to find a chance to visit it.

"That's right."

"This pastry is so soft."

Zhou's mother and Xu Qingluo ate two pieces. The pastries in this teahouse were really interesting, sweet but not greasy.

The taste is a bit like Suzhou pastries, but not as soft and sticky as Suzhou pastries. Instead, it has a bit of chewiness.

"really not bad."

......

......

Time has come to New Year's Day.

The streets and alleys of Kyoto are bustling with activity, and there are many individual business owners setting up stalls on the roadside.

Xu Qingluo has three days off for New Year's Day.

During these three days, she took her two children to visit all the famous attractions in Kyoto, which made Zhou Yuheng jealous.

The daughter-in-law finally got a vacation, but she was so focused on her children that she almost forgot about her husband.

It’s okay that his daughter-in-law forgot about him, but his two sons also forgot about their old father.

His two beloved sons bought gifts for the whole family.

He alone didn't have it!

Zhou Yuheng felt very sad.

"Okay you."

Xu Qingluo felt helpless when she saw Zhou Yuheng's resentful eyes.

He is a grown man, but he is jealous of the child.

"I haven't seen my two sons bring me anything."

Xu Qingluo looked at Zhou Yuheng speechlessly.

The two sons only have so little pocket money that they have to share a piece of candy. What else does he want?
