I only found out last night.
:01:03
The mayor informed me by phone.
:01:06
I couldn't believe it.
:01:09
My hometown is Sanhetun,
a village in the mountains.

:01:14
I left home to work in the city.
:01:17
I was so busy
that I haven't been back in years.

:01:21
My father was the village schoolteacher.
:01:23
He taught there all his life.
:01:27
I am the only child...
:01:29
...the only one from our village
who went to college.

:01:33
I am very worried about my mother.
:01:36
I am afraid she can not
cope with this sudden change.

:02:12
Come in and take a break.
:02:14
I've got to get back.
:02:16
Thank your boss again for me.
:02:19
Thank you.
:02:33
Mother?
:02:38
-Mother?
-Yusheng.

:02:42
