Here is famous Chinese humorous
story. A traveller stopped at house
and asked for cup Of tea. Having
none on hand, the host sent his son
out to procure some. Meanwhile the
hostess put pot of water on the fire
to boil. The son did not return, and

husband: "Inasmuch as the tea does
not seem to be forthcoming, perhaps
you had better offer your guest a
bath"
