In the three-act drama Teahouse, * * * has more than 70 characters, 50 of which have names or nicknames. The identities of these characters vary greatly. Some of them have been members of parliament, some have been directors of gendarmerie headquarters, some are old people of the Qing Dynasty, some are leaders of local evil forces, some are storytellers, fortune tellers and peasant women. All kinds of characters constitute a complete "society".

Teahouse shows the characteristics and culture of the teahouse in each specific historical period through the change of the furnishings of Yutai Teahouse from simple to new and then to simple. At the beginning, tea drinkers played with birds, tea and insects. Although they were antique, they were all quiet because of the appearance of "detectives" and the note "Don't talk about state affairs".

The survival of the "Yutai" in the second act, the renovation of teahouse facilities and the contraction of the scene imply the teahouse's struggle in this increasingly contradictory society. The bigger the "foreign flavor" in the teahouse and the note "Don't talk about state affairs" written by Zhang Yue, the greater the crisis.

In the third act, not only did you write a note "Don't talk about state affairs" with a large number, but there was also a note next to it: "Pay for tea in advance". This shows that the teahouse has reached the point where it can't make ends meet. "Pay for tea first ... don't talk about state affairs" obviously embodies a causal relationship. Lao She takes the teahouse as the carrier, sees the big from the small, and reflects social changes.
