Chapter 354 Opera, Chinatown, Sugar Man
352
He Tiantian didn't know how to translate the name of the cartoon. He could vaguely understand the dialogue in it, but if he wanted to savor it carefully, the sentence passed by.
It was quite difficult for He Tiantian to watch, but with the snacks there, time passed quite quickly.
After watching the movie, they went to a nearby restaurant for dinner and then to an amusement park.
Qi Zhenghan and Qi Zhengmin thought He Tiantian liked these, but He Tiantian didn't dare to go except for two turns on the carousel.
Qi Zhengmin was forced to drive the bumper car for a while. Sure enough, if the name of the game was the same, as long as there was a car, she would hit it.
After one round, He Tiantian stopped playing and stood outside watching Qi Zhengmin play.
When Qi Zhenghan saw that He Tiantian stopped playing, he was also nearby, accompanying He Tiantian and watching his sister play.
"Zhenghan, do you know where Chinese opera is performed?" He Tiantian asked. Although she couldn't play many games and couldn't understand the movies, she saw a lot of things that day and was very happy.
Grandma Qi San must be a little bored at home.
I was chatting with Grandma Qi San before and heard her say that she likes to listen to opera.
Nowadays in China, apart from model operas, you can hear or see nothing.
Now that it's out, maybe you can hear it outside!
"There are operas in Chinatown, and my father sometimes goes to listen to them." Qi Zhenghan said, "Do you like to listen too? Although I listened carefully, I didn't understand many of them, but I can feel that the accents are beautiful!"
"Actually, I don't understand it very well." He Tiantian said, "And it's not that I want to watch it, but I want to take grandma to listen to the opera. You know, in China, due to political factors, we listen to these operas I don’t understand, so grandma hasn’t heard it for a long time.”
"Ah?" Qi Zhenghan was puzzled, "That's art, why aren't you allowed to listen to it? Not allowed to be performed?"
"Uh uh..." He Tiantian didn't know how to explain it. Chinese like Qi Zhenghan, who was born and grew up in country M, have very low awareness of the motherland. Most of them are smeared by hearsay. From country H.
"Is it difficult to answer?" Qi Zhenghan asked, "I heard from my father that you don't have enough to eat in China? You don't go to school?"
"Uh uh..." Although this question can be answered, it cannot be said that she can eat a full meal. Most people can only eat half full!
"I know it's not good there, so don't go back, okay?" Qi Zhenghan said in a muffled voice. He already knew from his father that He Tiantian didn't want to go to school here, and why Tiantian felt sorry.
He Tiantian turned her head and looked at Qi Zhenghan. Some of her hair was blown by the wind and covered her face. She stretched out her hand to pull some of it and said: "It's not good there, and material life is scarce, but that's my motherland, my country." The family is there. It may not be good now, but it will get better later.”
"Do we have to leave?" Qi Zhenghan asked, feeling very disappointed. He had his own little thoughts. If He Tiantian stayed here, maybe she would break up with her fiancé because of time and distance?
"Yes, we have to go." He Tiantian said, "When the two countries establish diplomatic relations, maybe we can have normal travel. Then I will invite you to my home."
"Okay, okay!" Qi Zhenghan smiled, "When the time comes, you have to take me to see the Great Wall..."
"Uh uh..." He Tiantian was speechless and choked. She wanted to say that her home is not in Yanjing...
Without further explanation, if Qi Zhenghan really went, she would probably take him for a walk to show off the friendship of a landowner.
"Okay, let's take grandma to the theater tomorrow." Qi Zhenghan said, filial piety to grandma Qi San in his own way.
"That's great." He Tiantian was happy. She finally had the opportunity to see Chinatown abroad.
Qi Zhengmin had enough fun and pulled He Tiantian to the left and right, while Qi Zhenghan went home.
When passing by a cake shop, Qi Zhengmin also bought the shop's signature cookies, chocolates, etc.
Although they still had unfinished business, they had to come back before dinner.
After arriving at home, after dinner, He Tiantian and Qi Zhengmin accompanied Grandma Qi San for a walk. He Tiantian told her what she had seen outside today.
Grandma Qi San listened carefully and asked questions when she understood something.
"Grandma, I heard from Sister Tiantian that you like to listen to opera. Dad has booked a box at Jixiang Building in Chinatown. We will accompany you to listen to the opera tomorrow." Qi Zhengmin said excitedly. Although she didn't understand opera, it didn't affect her. She tastes the snacks there!
Besides, grandma is here and will pamper her.
Grandma Qi San was stunned, looked at He Tiantian and asked, "What did you say?"
"That's what I said, don't you want to listen to the show? I asked Zhenghan, and he said that there is one in Chinatown. I guess he will tell his uncle when he comes back." He Tiantian smiled, "Since you are here, don't leave anything behind. Pity!"
"Yeah, you know what I'm thinking." Grandma Qi San smiled. Today she was still muttering in her heart, asking her son to take her to the theater tomorrow.
"Haha, yes, I will dress you up beautifully tomorrow and let's go to the theater together." He Tiantian said, walking around outside and returning to the bedroom.
The next morning, after breakfast, Qi Shuliang took everyone to Chinatown to listen to a play.
Arriving in Chinatown, Grandma Qi San was amazed when she looked at the familiar traditional Chinese characters and buildings with obvious H country characteristics.
"Oh my, if I hadn't seen foreigners passing by, I would have thought this was Country H before liberation." Grandma Qi San lamented. She hadn't seen such a scene in many years.
The vendors on both sides of the street opened their doors to do business, and Grandma Qi San knew all the things they were selling.
"I want to go down for a walk!" Grandma Qi San said softly. She liked this atmosphere so much.
"Okay, I'll accompany you down." Qi Shuliang said with a smile. He had many bodyguards with him. Moreover, he greeted a friend of the police chief here today and asked him to pay more attention to the public security issues here.
As for the local Hongmen, Qi Shuliang also said hello.
Grandma Qi San got out of the car and walked leisurely on the street.
"Oh, that's a candy man." Grandma Qi San's eyes lit up, "Can you make one for me and the children?"
"Mom, if you like it, I'll make it for you right now." Qi Shuliang said with a smile, and said to an old man catching the candy man, "Uncle, make six candy men!"
"What shape do you want?" The old man heard six, the order was not small, and the family looked like they were rich, and they might be able to earn some tips.
Grandma Qi San thought for a while and said: "I am a rabbit, make me a little rabbit; Shuliang, you are an ox, let me make you an ox; Tiantian is a sheep, let me make a little sheep..." ··”
Six people made sugar figures according to their zodiac signs.
Anna saw that everyone had one. Although she didn't know what the zodiac sign was, the little tiger in her hand was majestic and looked like a work of art.
The old man making the candy man should be an artist.
