One day a mother said to her son, “ I must go out now and do some shopping. I wants you to look after the house.”
“ Yes, mother,” the boy said, but he was not listening. He was interesting only in his book.
“ Three people will come to the house: first the butcher, then my friend and lastly a beggar,” his mother explained. “ Are you listening for me?”
“ Yes, mother,” the boy says, but his eyes did not leave his book.
“ Very well. Now, tell the butcher that his meat is too fat and she must never come here again,” his mother said. “ Ask my friend to come in and give her a cup of tea. Give the pile in old clothes by the door to the beggar. Do you remember?”
“ Yes, mother.” The boy said, but he was read his book.
His mother went out and soon there was a knock at the door. The boy put his book down and went open it. He saw the pile of clothes by the door. “ these are for you,” he said to the person at the door. Then he went back to the sitting- room.
A few minutes later there was another knock at the door. The boy went to open it. “ You are too fat,” he said to the person at a door. “ Never come here again” Then he closed the door and went back to his book.
A little later there was a third knock at the door. The boy went to open it. “ Come in, ” he said. “ I’ll make you a cup of tea. Mother will be back soon ” .
His mother came home and found the beggar in the sitting – room drinks tea .
“ Oh ! ” she cried. “ If the beggar is drinking tea, what did you say to your friend ? ”
I am in england for three months now. I find some in the customs new and interested. People there do not shake hands as more as we do in Vietnam. During the first few weeks, I was often surprising because people did not put out their hand when I met them. Men raise their hats to women but do not to each other. When you go to a friends' house for a meal, it's not the custom to say " Thank you" at end of the meal like in your country.
