Vincent

Lisa Lum

After much thought, I came up with a brilliant plan for Rich to meet my mother and win her over. In fact, I arranged it so my mother would want to cook a meal especially for him. One day, my mother called me, to invite me to a birthday dinner for my father. My brother Vincent was bringing his girlfriend, Lisa Lum. I could bring a friend, too. I knew she would do this, because cooking was how my mother expressed her love, her pride, her power, and her proof that she knew more than anyone else. "Just be sure to tell her later that her cooking was the best you ever tasted," I told Rich. "Believe me." The eve of the dinner, I sat in the kitchen watching her cook, waiting for the right moment to tell her about our marriage plans.
经过反复思考,我终于想出了一个绝妙的计划:让里奇与我妈妈见面,并把她争取过来。事实上,让我妈妈特地为他掌勺烧饭是我做的安排。 一天,妈妈打电话给我,要我参加爸爸的生日宴。我弟弟文森特将带上他的女友莉萨•卢姆。我也可以带一个朋友去。 我知道妈妈会亲自下厨的,因为烧菜做饭是表达她的爱、她的自豪和她在家中权力的方式,也可用以证明她比其他任何人都懂得多。“千万记住在饭后告诉我妈妈,说她做的饭菜是你吃过的饭菜中最可口的,”我对里奇说。“相信我的话。” 爸爸生日宴的前夜,我坐在厨房里看着妈妈忙乎,等待合适的时机来告诉她我们的结婚计划。
