出差在广州
A Business Trip to GuangzhouA short story written by Yueqing Huang
I am an engineer in a radio factory of Nanjing, as a 45-year-old man, I own a successful career and a happy family, with techniques learnt from university and experience accumulated when I was young, I am put into an important position by my current leader, which brings me handsome salary and full respect. With those money, I can give my child best education and my family materials of high quality. The passing away of my parents last year eased me of a lot of burden, but I still have my parents-in-law to support, they have retired a couple of years ago from their respective workplaces and is now being installed in an apartment with two bedrooms and a living room in a neighborhood near Nanjing railway station, the district is rather busy because of the station, your can not only take bus all the way to the downtown within 10 minutes, buy whatever you like in the nearby supermarket, but call whoever in from kilometres away to help you within a few minutes. Being freed from their jobs, they can now do whatever they want—following hot TV series online, chatting with friends and relatives, playing cards with their neighbor, attending classes in University for the Aged. However, their favorite pastime is to play mah-jong, they are indulged in it to an extent that they get irritable whenever there is three days they are aloof from it. Considering that they have toiled for a lifetime and brought her up through innumerable hardships, my wife tried her best to satisfy their needs: when there is no players, she called together friends and relatives to play with them; when there is no instruments, she scouted around the city for an ivory one and lost no time in delivering into their hands; when there is no place, she made room in her own house for them to play. Sometimes my work and life is affected by their vulgar entertainment, but I have no other choice but to be patient, because they are my parents-in-law.
