III. Litz, a Finnish, once told a story about her mother-in-law.
马蹄雪梨汤Ten years ago, I met a Taiwan Chine doctor in the States, and fell in love with him. In less than 6 months we got married. After my graduation we returned to Finland. My husband had long wished to bring his mother to stay with u for a while. Last summer, after we re-decorated out hou, we invited her over. You can well imagine how happy my husband was! And I was just as happy. I know being filial(孝顺的) to parents is a great value Chine people cherish. As wife of a Chine, I try to be as filial as my husband.
Two days after my mother-in-law’s arrival, I talked to my husband while his mother was sitting in the garden enjoying the sunshine.
Litz: Dick, how long is your mum going to stay?
Dick: I don’t know. I haven’t asked her.
Litz: Why not ask her?
Dick: What do you mean by asking her?
Litz: I mean what I said. Just ask her how long she’s going to stay.
My mother-in-law overheard out conversation, and decided to leave for Taiwan the very afternoon. I had never expected that her visit should be so short. I tried very hard to persuade her mind, but in vain.
