The story

小雨：大卫，今天我的爷爷奶奶来我们家！David, my grandpa and grandma are coming over today!

大卫：你的爷爷奶奶？他们老吗？Your grandparents? Are they old?

小雨：很老。爷爷八十岁，奶奶七十八岁。Very old. Grandpa is eighty, Grandma is seventy-eight.

大卫：八十岁！他们的身体好吗？Eighty! Are they in good health?

小雨：很好。但是你别和爷爷说“老”！Very good. But don't say "old" to Grandpa!

小雨：因为爷爷不喜欢“老”这个字。Because Grandpa doesn't like the word "old".

爷爷：小雨！我们来了！Xiaoyu! We're here!

大卫：爷爷好！奶奶好！我是大卫。Hello, Grandpa! Hello, Grandma! I'm David.
