A lazy chinese new year

Those normal HDB trees swayed lazily by the late afternoon breeze.
Me and Grandpa stood outside his house on the corridor, me holding a packet of weird
tasting season Ice Lemon Tea while he kept puffing his cigarette away. He told me he used to be a driving instructor for 20 years...

Grandpa : "ALI AH, NI OW CHA BUAY?" (alson, are you learning driving?)

Me : "Ah buay lei, auto or manual ka ho?" (Not yet, still deciding between Auto or Manual)

Grandpa : "KI OW AUTO, KA KWAY PASS, MIAN TA CLUTCH, AUTO KA HO" (Go for auto, easier to pass, no need to step on the clutch.)

Me : "Oh, Mummy Ow auto, but yi fail, ah mei ma si. hahaha" (Mummy learning auto but failed her TP, sister too.)

Grandpa : "HAHA, LI LAO BU BUAY SAI EH LA..AH CHOR YI PASS, WA MA MAI ZJIE YI EH CHA."(Your mum can't drive for nuts, even if she pass, I also don't dare to ride in her car.)

Me : "hahaaha"
