他记得。。。

上个星期从老家回来之后就一直在忙着收拾、忙着准备新学年的开始。忘了是哪一天了，宝贝突然间冒出了一句 :"Mom, are we going back to Ipoh this Saturday (元旦）？"

怎么无端端提起要回怡保？家婆正在星加坡小姑的家，胖老爷应该不会回去的了。而且得给玩疯了的小子收拾心情上学了。"I don't think so, Sam. Why?"　

他默不作声了好一阵子，然后　：　"It's tai-gong's (太公 = 胖老爷的外公） birthday, mom. We celebrated with him in January." 啊！怎么他会记得？

妈咪自己都已经忘了 （四代同堂的寿宴）。"Oh ya! You remembered that...but tai-gong passed away in August already."

"Ya, I know. What I meant is someone could buy a small cake and put at his grave yard to '请请“ （广东话 = 拜拜)."

妈咪说不出一句话来了。。。很感动，真的。

**后记 ：元旦那一天,忙着上班忙着玩LaQ忙着包寿司，到晚餐过后驱车回家时，承懿在后座又冒出了一句 "Dad, you think some one in Ipoh had bought a cake for tai-gong today? "我们当然不知道外公的生忌是不是真的有拜拜仪式，还是安慰一下赖小朋友说“有啦，有啦。”。。。在天国的太公会知道这位外曾孙“记得”。
