The two old men were chatting with a sense of nostalgia.
The elder being advised, with the surname Moss, although unaware of the other's specific identity, was certain it was not insignificant.
With a look of resignation, he said to Grandpa Ford, "How many young people nowadays have the patience to learn these traditional skills? Take my granddaughter, for instance. She came back from studying abroad, and all she talks about is ABC, international financial management fluctuations, more interested in international politics than I am."
"Ah," Old Mr. Ford disagreed, "it's all for the family business. Learning these things is normal. My grandson is the same."
Old Mr. Moss huffed, "Your grandson can still cook for you. My granddaughter can't even tell the difference between soy sauce and vinegar!"
Old Mr. Ford burst into laughter, "How many young people are willing to cook now? It's normal. For example, my grandson can cook, but my granddaughter-in-law cannot."
