Dear grandfather, Greetings!
We have separated for more than ten years. I feel regreting that I can't often care about you because you are living in US and turly far from here. I hope you can live a happy life. I have graduated from school for a year and I can't find a job. Thus, I still stay at home. If you know any opportunity in American, I really hope you can give me a help. When I succeed I would not forget you. My father didn't plan for futher, only serving others. He didn't ever think about himself. Since I graduated from Tian Ran School, it has been one year. We didn't write each other so much. I sent him letters many times, but I don't know if he received or not, I didn't receive his letters either. And where I am staying now is really simple and crude, and it even has leakage the rain. Even though I still didn't hear from my faher. I beg you to go to my father place and tell him the situation about us. And my mother is ill now in home, she sent letter to father, didn't hear from him either. I beg you hand this letter to my father.
Best Wishes!

I heard about that you will come back home with glory in the end of this year, but I didn't hear from you yet. I am wondering if you will be here. If you really want to do so, please let me know earlier. My son faces a difficult choice about going to the US. On the one hand, we don't know if my son give up the study and go to the US now, whether or not he can get the Graduate Certificate. On the other hand, we are not sure that my son can enter the US successful. Huang Mingjun entered the US through Seatter, and I heard that you help him. I don't know his address, would you please give me his address so that I can write to him.

There is a black sheep who want to get profits by unreasonable means and cheat the Western people. Finally, his licecse was withdraw. I received a letter from Yan Sheng, He said the traffic was stuck due to the war fair. All the students who live in our town can not go out to the Sheng Cheng to study. Moreover, school closed in April, so the time for students to study are not enough. During the time of war, studying is not so important. I want to let me son come to America. But the officer said the boy is 19 years old who is not qualified. |

It has been many years since we met last time. Don't worry about us. I'm so pleased to know you are peace and successful. Our family lives a happy life, don't worry about us. On September 23rd 1pm, policeman came to our house and took my father, my third uncle and uncle's son. The policeman did this due to An Liang association and He Sheng association's fighting affair. As a result, our restaurant closed. My mother worried about it very much, we are not sure when my father could come back.

Dear father;
Yesterday, I received you objects, and knowing your news. I shouldn't study hard as you command me. But now, as a son, I should help you and raise myself. But in China, if you want to get a high statue, you need money or a good diploma. So now, I will listen to your suggestion. For two reasons: 1, I am afraid my study failed, let my father upset and does harm to my reputation. 2, The changes in China. If there is any accident, I won't have any way out. If you have 10,000 Yuan in Guan Zhou and 5,000 for my tuition in school, I will study hard without any worry, this is the way I hope mostly. If you don't have enough money, I can go to do some business if I failed in my study. Except that, all the things will be difficult. I heard a uncle had a certification of going to American, it suits mother's age, I want to mother go to American. My house is building now, and will be finished in the middle of April, please send me money as soon as possible. There is a event that need people to donate, don't do that!

Summary:
I used to study at New York Columbia University, I almost finished my master degree except the dissertation. But the tuition of the Columbia University is so expansive, I hardly can not afford it. I used to work in my friend's shop, but my friend's shop are weak. So I decided to go to Los Angeles to teach at a Chinese American School. So that I can also continue my Doctor degree study at South California University. But the fact is that I can not continue the study due to South California University doesn't have Doctor Degree. So I decided to go to San Francisco when I finish the teaching work. I beg my brother could give me 200 dollar at the first third months, and give me 50 dollar per months after that. I will really appeciate you.
Best Wishes!
