Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

Chapter 25: A stranger in the spy world of the Republic of China

"Then I thought about it and sold the company to his rival. This really offended him. At that time, the Japanese were also eyeing Hong Kong. I was afraid something might happen, so I took my family and fled to the United States."

Uncle Chen took a sip of water and continued, "It wasn't good when I first came to the United States. Not only did I not speak English, but I was also discriminated against and bullied. Not only were we bullied, but all Chinese people were bullied. Later, by chance, I met Lao Qian and his friends, who brought you here."

"They said that this place is full of Chinese people, and someone was selling a farm and asked me if I wanted to buy it and come here to live with them. They said this place is a little remote but quiet. I had some money at the time, and I heard that if I bought the farm, I would own it. I was thinking of buying some land and setting up some businesses so that you and Chen Xin would have a place to stay when you come over, so I moved here."

"It's a lot better after I moved here. Everyone here is Chinese. One of the leaders is also surnamed Chen, so we are relatives, so I settled down here."

Then he talked about some things about Aunt Fang's daughter, telling Aunt Fang about her school days, marriage and having children: "Don't worry, her husband treats her very well, and his parents treat her very well too. And her style is not like that of an American, but more like that of a Chinese. She has lived a happy life these years, and she even came here to live for a while a while ago."

That night, Jiang Yue and Aunt Chen slept together and talked a lot. Until Aunt Chen asked Jiang Yue another question, Jiang Yue didn't answer. When she turned her head, she found that she had fallen asleep. Aunt Chen touched Jiang Yue's face and didn't speak for a long time.

When Jiang Yue got up early the next morning, Aunt Chen and Aunt Fang were already cooking downstairs. Aunt Chen was humming a song and looked visibly happy. After breakfast, Uncle Chen wanted to take Aunt Fang to town to call Aunt Fang's daughter. Jiang Yue thought about it and decided to go with them, ostensibly to buy some daily necessities.

Aunt Chen was reluctant to let Jiang Yue go, so Jiang Yue pushed the little apprentice to Chen's mother and said, "Aunt, please help me take care of the child." After that, she followed Chen's father.

After they left, Chen's mother pulled her little apprentice over to sit down with her, held her hand and began to ask her name. The little apprentice said, "Auntie..." That's not right. What should I call her? My little apprentice's CPU is about to burn out.

Mother Chen smiled and said, "Just call me Grandmother."

"Hello, Grandmother Master. My name is Jiang Shiya. I am Master's apprentice. I am fifteen years old this year."

"When did I accept you as my apprentice? Where are your parents?"

Jiang Shiya was a little depressed: "My parents are dead. They were killed by the Japanese during the war. When I was picking up food on the street, I slept at the door of my master's medicine hall at night. The next day, my master bought me buns, asked about my family's situation, and finally accepted me as his apprentice."

After hearing this, Chen's mother felt sorry for the child and quickly said, "It's okay. You still have your master, and I will be there for you in the future."

"Grandmother Master, I'm fine. Master treats me very well, and Aunt Fang treats me very well too."

The two chatted for a long time before Chen's mother asked the young apprentice why he suddenly came to the United States. The young apprentice organized his words: "I remember that day I was studying with my teacher at home, and Sister Xinxin called us to hurry up, so we ran to Hangzhou. After staying in Hangzhou for a few days, we went to Hong Kong to look for my grandmother, but found no one there. Then we got the letter you sent from the grandmother's house across the street. After that, we lived in Hong Kong for half a year and then took a ship to the United States."

"When Master came here, he got lost and walked onto another road. We walked for a long time and didn't see anyone. Finally, we found someone to ask for directions."

Mother Chen digested this information and asked her young apprentice, "Do you know about your sister Chen Xin?"

The young apprentice shook his head and said, "I don't know. My master knows. My master said that the more you know, the more dangerous it is. But when we were in Hong Kong, I wrote a letter to Sister Xinxin. I also wrote a letter to Sister Xinxin. My master said that in a few years, Sister Xinxin will be able to come to see us."

Mother Chen breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that these two children were a cause for concern. She didn’t react at first, but later she found out that they were all lies about not being dangerous.

Aunt Fang had already gotten on the phone with her daughter, and they both cried bitterly. The two children nearby were frightened and quickly went to look for their grandmother. When they came over, they found their daughter-in-law crying and thought something had happened. Finally, they realized that they had contacted their relatives.

I quickly comforted the twins and would send her to find someone after she finished the call. A few people packed their things, wrote where they were going on a note and put it on the coffee table, and then the whole family rushed over here.

Over there, Chen's father and Jiang Yue were chatting outside. They talked about the domestic situation and Chen Xin. After Aunt Fang came out to calm down, they went to the mall to buy things.

After shopping, they went home. At noon, Aunt Fang's daughter arrived. The two of them hugged each other and cried again. After they calmed down, the parents of both sides introduced each other. Aunt Fang didn't know English, but she learned some common expressions when she was in Hong Kong. She had to learn more because she was not very good at conversation. Jiang Yue acted as her translator. The two sides got along quite well. At this time, the twins also looked at Aunt Fang curiously. They could speak Chinese but couldn't write it, but they could understand it.

After talking for a long time, the two children understood that this was their mother's mother, and they all looked at her curiously. The daughter was more lively, so Aunt Fang reached out to hug the two children, and the little girl came over. Aunt Fang hugged the children and chatted with them. At noon, Aunt Fang went to cook, and she made dishes with cute patterns for the children. Soon, the two children were captivated by the food, and they called her grandma affectionately.

She didn't go home at night. Tomorrow is the weekend and Aunt Fang's daughter's husband will probably come over. Let's go back together on the weekend. Before the next day, a car came outside at 11 o'clock in the evening. Everyone went out to see and saw Aunt Fang's daughter's husband running over. When he returned home, he found that there was no sound in the house, the lights were not on, and there was no sound from the child. At first he thought he had gone to his mother's place.

He entered the house, turned on the light, put down his backpack, and went to his mother's place. However, no one was there and the car was gone. When he got home, he saw the message on the note on the table. He could not wait any longer and ran over at night. He first checked on Aunt Fang's daughter and found that she was fine. Then he saw the whole family looking at them. He scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled at Aunt Fang.

After watching this, Aunt Fang knew that her daughter had not chosen the wrong person. After the family entered the house, they went to bed without saying a few words. Because there were too many people, in the end Chen's mother, Jiang Yue and the little apprentice slept together, and Chen's father and Aunt Fang's daughter's husband slept in the same room.
