Below is page 10 of my: “Memoir: Foolishly Brave Unconditionally Blessed, From a Chinese Girl to American Working Mother”.

(Continued from page 9)

My grandparents divorced

While I was living with my grandparents in the small village, sometimes my grandma would say “Your grandpa went to the rat hole.” I looked at the rat hole in the corner of the room and said “Grandpa is in the field.”

My grandma would say, “Not this grandpa, the grandpa in Sanmenxia City.”

After I grew up I heard the full story. My grandma and my biological grandpa were married and had my father in 1946. Then my biological grandpa joined the Liberation Army. After the new China was established in 1949, he became an officer in the city Zhengzhou. He asked my grandma to move to Zhengzhou to live with him. But my grandma didn’t want to move, so she stayed in the farming village with my father. My biological grandpa divorced my grandma and re-married someone in the city. My grandma remarried my step-grandpa in the farming village. So, the grandpa who raised me was actually my step-grandpa.
