I drove up the road with our ayi (nannie) Ding the other day and asked her in Chinese why she thought this was all happening.
一天,我和保姆丁阿姨驱车行使在京顺路上,我用中文问她,她觉得为什么会发生这样的变化。
I'll deny it to Nannie, say the woman is crazy, and one by one the family will drop off until she only remains, and then she'll get the property.
我会否认它南妮,说她简直是疯了,一个个家庭将落,直到她只能停留,然后她将获得的财产之一。
But Nannie had another lover, in fact a score of them from among the neighboring young settlers, but one in particular who bid fair to be Billy's most dangerous rival.
