Sanmao came to Zhouzhuang on April 13, 1989. As soon as he arrived, he was so excited and cried when he saw such a beautiful scenery. Sanmao hugged Zhouzhuang's antique tiled house, as if holding his long lost grandmother. Muttering to himself, "I'm late!" Later, Sanmao left Zhouzhuang crying and said, "I'll come again, I'll definitely come."

Mr. Zhang Jihan, the current owner of the tea house, worked at the Zhouzhuang Cultural Station and learned about this matter. They began to pursue the footprints left by Sanmao in Zhouzhuang, capturing beautiful and captivating scenes. He wrote an essay called "Sanmao in Zhouzhuang" and subsequently published it in the Yangcheng Evening News and Hong Kong's "China Tourism". Later, these articles reached Sanmao's hands, and he had a letter exchange with Mr. Zhang Jihan, becoming an unforgettable friend! Now the children of the elderly family have all grown up and developed abroad, and his husband and wife are guarding this teahouse because they are reluctant to leave. He opened the teahouse not to make money, but to promote the style of a celebrity in Zhouzhuang. Mr. Zhang once said: This small tea house is an essay that I will always write. The length of this essay is very long, and I want to open a tea house to collect people's voices of nostalgia and accumulate more life materials.
