Echoes of a Thousand Moons

my Yun Shouping hanging scroll?

I didn't. I really didn't, Uncle. How would I dare sell your collection?

you never know— someone might've had sticky fingers and taken it.

That's not what you said during the day. What did I say?

To be honest, I haven't had meat for half a month.

Meat and fish are incredibly expensive.

I really don't know what to do. Since you are here,

I just stare wide-eyed until dawn.

My hair falls out in handfuls.

We are not the only ones having a hard time,

and it won't just be for a day or two.

We will endure it together, and we'll get through it.

Even my father said you are more of a father to me than he is.

That won't do. Uncle,

Sister-in-law has just arrived in Shanghai. She is unfamiliar with the place and the people.

it's really a whole science.

things here are far more complicated than they appear.

They were all put on your account. The boss said he has a great relationship with you.

It makes you, a Meng, look like such a loyal servant of our Zhang family.

he's still her biological father.

you didn't see the look in that chicken's eyes before it died. Isn't it just like your look?

The Japanese are so vicious, and they're still eyeing our house.

And you're just being so submissive, you can't even handle your own Uncle.

You just sobered up a bit, and you're already quoting classics.
