William's Wife
english people’s name does not like chinese people. english many people shared the same name.
as men, such as: james, dan, mark, peter, william, david…
as ladies, such as: hannah, amy, lizz, donnar, leah, lucy…
in our garden centre there were two williams, and about the same in years. one works with fish, the other works with sundries(杂物) .
one afternoon, a lady came and asked me:
"did you know where my husband is?"
"what’s your husband’s name?" i asked.
"william!" she told me.
"wil--liam? i don’t think so."
"yes! no doubt." she said.
i felt surprising. did english man always change wife? one month ago i had met william’s wife, their daughter and two grand sons by the fish pond, but the lady stood at front of me was a new face. unbelievable! william is a good man and he couldn’t to do like that one month change a wife. how i can believe. so i have to make sure.
"no! i don’t think so, you are not william’s wife. i knew william’s wife, she is much taller than you."
"yes, i am william’s wife, definitely! should i go home to fetch the marriage certificate for you?"
"not necessary! which department did your husband work?" i didn’t understand from her well and wanted check the detail.
"sundries, outdoor sundries." she said.
"oh, i see, your husband he is not the fish’s, he is pot’s." i suddenly got the sense.
"what? my husband he is a pot." she misunderstood.
"not at all, all fine now." i said.
i looked toward the sundries zone, her husband just bent1 and took a big pot in hand.
"over there! look that big pot, your husband is over there."
it liked as columbus found a new continent.
i caught a deep breath at the moment!
