Chapter 101 To Ba Jin

Ba Jin: The books you sent were brought back by myself last year.Your letter of December 17th was not answered until today, (attach the words on Huang Xsheng's inscription, please forward), I am so sorry.Life is busy and chaotic, and at the same time I am not in a good mood, and I feel that I have nothing to say about writing letters.I think this mood is common. In the correspondence between friends at home and abroad, there is no one in high spirits.What should I do?Has the long story you planned started yet?I am busy with housework and mundane affairs, but Wen Zao's health is better this year than last year, and the children are also healthy (the younger sister lives in Tokyo, and Zong Sheng goes to school in Peiping).Cherry blossoms are blooming here, I still don't love it, I think it gives me the impression of being thin and bleak!Yesterday we went to the Aoyama Cemetery and Ueno Park, and there were Japanese people who were drunk and crying, in a hurry.

Say hello to wife and kids. Bing Xin IV, VIII (1948)
