About this episode

Welcome to another episode of 听故事说中文! In this heartwarming story by 栗良平, we follow the tradition of a humble noodle shop in Tokyo named "小丸子" that stays open late every New Year's Eve.

On one particularly cold New Year's Eve, a young mother and her two children, dressed in shabby clothes, enter the shop. The kind-hearted owners, moved by their plight, serve them a bowl of noodle soup with extra ingredients. This simple act of kindness becomes an annual tradition, and over the years, the children grow up and return to the shop, now successful young adults, to relive the cherished memory of their past. Please let us know if you like the story or have any topic you want us to cover . R&S
