"The tea house cannot lose its cultural roots."Zh: “但我们也要与时俱进，”玲提出反驳，“如果我们什么都不改变，会被时代抛弃。”En: "But we also need to keep up with the times," Ling countered. "If we don't change anything, we'll be abandoned by the era."Zh: 空气中弥漫着些许紧张。En: A hint of tension filled the air.Zh: 佳豪看着哥哥姐姐，不知道怎么缓解他们之间的分歧。En: Jiahao looked at his brother and sister, unsure of how to ease the rift between them.Zh: 他抿了一口热茶，鼓起勇气说道：“我们能不能融合一些新想法？不丢掉传统，只是让茶馆更加吸引人。”En: He took a sip of hot tea, gathered his courage, and said, "Can we blend some new ideas? Without losing tradition, we could make the tea house more appealing."Zh: 玲和明宇对视片刻。En: Ling and Mingyu exchanged a glance.Zh: 玲微微点头。En: Ling nodded slightly.Zh: “或许，我们可以试试，”她妥协道，“我们可以增加一些现代茶艺展示。”En: "Maybe we can try," she conceded. "We can add some modern tea ceremony demonstrations."Zh: 明宇思考了一会儿，也终于开口：“好吧，我们可以做出一些改变，但不能失去茶馆的精神。”En: Mingyu thought for a moment and finally spoke: "Alright, we can make some changes, but we can't lose the spirit of the tea house."Zh: 他补充道，“比如，我们增加一些新年特供，不过还是要围绕我们的传统一起来。”En: He added, "For example, we can introduce some New Year specials, but they must be centered around our traditions."Zh: 这番话让佳豪心里一松。En: These words brought relief to Jiahao.Zh: 他们三人开始谈论具体计划，茶馆空气中的冬日寒意仿佛也消散了几分。En: The three of them began discussing specific plans, and the wintry chill in the air of the tea house seemed to dissipate a bit.Zh: 在新年的准备中，他们达成了和解。En: In preparing for the New Year, they reached a reconciliation.Zh: 明宇认识到接受一些创新也是对祖母的另一种敬意，玲赞同护持家族传统能带来独特魅力，而佳豪在过程中找到了自己的声音，成为了两者的桥梁。En: Mingyu realized that accepting some innovation was another form of honoring grandmother, Ling agreed that preserving family traditions could bring unique charm, and Jiahao found his voice in the process, becoming a bridge between the two.Zh: 随着春节的临近，茶馆门口的红灯笼闪耀得更明亮了。En: As the Spring Festival approached, the red lanterns at the tea house entrance shone brighter.Zh: 屋内，茶香依旧，却多了一层新的味道，承载着三个兄弟姐妹共同的心血。En: Inside, the tea fragrance remained, but ...
