A Family Memoir
by Wenguang Huang
"Where do you expect us to bury you? Have you ever seen a cemetery
around here? What makes you think your husband's tomb
is still there in Henan?"
Grandma dismissed her with the wave of a hand. "I'm sure
the Huang family maintains the tomb and they have kept a place
for me." She made it clear to Father that she would be buried in
her native village with a traditional funeral, and that she would
not be denied her last request.
