Age no barrier to our adoration for genuine Super Girl

Ever since I first met my fianc's mother in 2006, she has been enamored of Super Girl Li Yuchun (Chris Lee). I bought her a birthday gift in Beijing and tucked it away in my suitcase. When we got to Shanghai, my prospective mother-in-law was eager to wash our laundry.

To my surprise, she had already unpacked the case, found the Super Girl CD and looked at me with an expression, as if pleading wo de (mine)? She reminded me of an excited girl who had just discovered a gift under the Christmas tree.

Upon my second visit to Shanghai, her adoration for Li had not abated. If anything, it had grown more ardent. For example, the dining table had a glass pane covering not only the plaid tablecloth, but also calendar pages of Li, rocking away in a blouse shaped like a trumpet lily and with windswept hair, as if she had just stepped off a ship.
