A beautiful day is immersed in the aroma of coffee

Today, we would like to share the story of "the Chinese family opened a coffee shop in Australia". From the beginning of language barrier and difficult operation, to the later harvest of the friendship of Australian locals, the owner's daughter told the story of the people and things her parents met when they opened a coffee shop in Australia, which moved countless netizens and made many netizens recall the warmth and kindness they encountered in Australia.

The only coffee shop in the town of Melbourne

The coffee shop is located in a remote town in Victoria, Australia, about a two-hour drive from Melbourne. There are only more than 700 families in the town, most of them retired grandfathers and grandmothers. The coffee shop run by the Chinese family is the only coffee shop in town.

From the beginning of language communication barriers, customer dissatisfaction, and even "discrimination"; to later become friends with customers, and deeply in love with the "Australian life" here, they have experienced a lot.

The owner's daughter said, "(our coffee shop has been open for so long), there are many stories, some good and some bad, but most of the people here are very friendly." Many old people are very kind and like to call me my love, dear, sweet heart! I've been here for two years, and I'd like to share these stories with you. "

A warm story in a coffee shop

About kindness, about warmth, about ordinary life in Australia, about love.

An old man who loves Chinese food.

In our first month in Australia, an old man from a nearby piano museum came to say hello to us.

He said that both he and his wife had been to China, and they liked Beijing Roast Duck and hot pot very much.

They are very happy that we are here and hope to invite us to his house for dinner.

But he is going to travel to the United States recently and will not be able to buy us dinner until he comes back from the United States.

A week later, my mother received a postcard from this old man from America.

It has an unfamiliar pinyin on it, saying "We like you".

My mother burst into tears when she saw this postcard!

I think for the first time in our long time here, someone welcomed us.

Grandpa will pick us up for dinner when he comes back.

His wife said

Most of the people here have been in Australia all their lives and have never been abroad, so someone may be unfriendly to you.

That's only because they are too narrow-minded. I hope you don't take it to heart.

Until now, my father would often visit their house and bring white wine to the old man to sit and drink with him.

Although the two people can not communicate well.

By the way, the old man's name is Fox. He said that when he went to China, he asked others how to translate his name, and others said he was "Old Fox".

Good people always reap good returns.

One day at about four o'clock in the afternoon, there were almost no customers in the shop at that time.

A lady came to the store, and I knew I hadn't seen her because they were all regular customers.

When she came, she asked me, is this the XX Coffee Shop?

I said, yes.

She said that she is a staff member of the elderly home, she has been taking care of an elderly person who has not been in good health recently, feeling that it will not be Christmas.

The old man gave her some money and told her that this was his favorite coffee shop. It is said that the ice chocolate here is delicious and the cake is delicious.

The old man is in poor health and can't go out any more.

He hopes that the lady who takes care of him will sit here and have a glass of ice chocolate for him on a sunny afternoon.

The best love is companionship.

An old couple who have been married for 60 years are really our regulars, coming here every day.

Drink the same tea, eat the same sandwiches and sit in the same seat every day.

They come in every day and don't need to order. We all know what to do.

They said that they had been working on homestay before and had lived in many foreign students from Japan and China.

They said that many students are still in contact with them, and those students affectionately call them Mom and Dad.

The old lady was in poor health, and every time the grandfather helped her in and helped her open her seat.

The old man also mixed the tea for her and added milk and sugar.

The old woman said that she married him when she was 17 years old, so she spent more than 60 years with her wife.

They didn't come for a long time at the beginning of this year, and we probably guessed that the old lady was in poor health again.

Then one day the old man came by himself and said that they could not come often in the future. The old lady had a bad memory now, and sometimes she didn't know where the room was or who he was. He looked really sad when he spoke.

For some time after that, Grandpa would come alone for tea and sandwiches every day, and then one day he began not to come.

He asked someone to tell me

He is old and his driver's license has been confiscated. He will not be able to drive here by himself.

He came with his son and wife last week, and we were all very surprised!

He said, the old lady has been living in the hospital, we took her out to get some air.
