Yang Ming and his cousin spent a full 14 hours on the road before they returned to New York's Chinatown at noon the next day.
The brothers took turns driving. When they got home, Yang Lehai was still exhausted even though he had slept in the car. He drove home without saying anything.
Yang Ming and his mother didn't live together with their family. Instead, they rented a house alone. The landlord was Yang Ming's uncle himself.
In the 1980s, the country implemented the reform and opening up policy, setting off a wave of immigration. In just a few years, countless university students and families all migrated to North America, including Yang Ming's uncle and his family.
Yang Ming's uncle, Yang Zhihui, belonged to the new generation when the college entrance examination had just resumed. He came here to study for two years. After graduation, he did not choose to return to China but stayed in New York.
After two or three years of hard work, he not only made a career, but also opened a restaurant and became a boss. After he had a small fortune, he took the immigration train and brought his wife and children from the country over.
His entire family immigrated, got a green card, and became a citizen of the United States. In an instant, they became noble. When she returned to China for the new year, she walked with the wind and became the envy of everyone in the community.
Originally, Yang Ming and his mother had nothing to do with it. However, after Yang Ming's father died in an accident on duty, his uncle was grateful that Yang Ming's mother, who had been laid off from a state-owned enterprise early on, had a hard time raising her alone. A year ago, he gave himself a chance to work in a restaurant.
Mother Yang was unwilling to leave her hometown at first, but Yang Ming was a reborn person. In addition, her uncle said that Yang Ming would get a better education after going abroad. The two of them helped her make up her mind in two or three sentences.
The reason why Yang Ming advised his mother was because of the three choices given by the system.
How could he watch Jordan's game in person if he did not come here?
In the M Nation, Mother Yang worked in the restaurant as her uncle wished. After a year of hard work, diligence, and dedication, she had successfully become a foreman and a small leader of a restaurant.
Yang Ming had been saving money every day in order to buy tickets to watch the game live in Chicago. He had finally completed the task of watching Jordan's ten games live intermittently during the holidays this season.
Yang Ming and his mother lived in a two-bedroom apartment. Other than the fact that the house was small and cramped, and they had to pay 300 dollars a month for rent, everything else was fine.
He entered the house and returned to his room. After taking a shower and tidying himself up, he went downstairs to his uncle's restaurant.
Yang Zhihui's restaurant was just around the corner of the two intersections ahead. It was a one-story, about 200 square meters, and could serve 30 to 40 customers at the same time. It was an ordinary restaurant that made about 3,000 to 4,000 dollars a day.
However, a monthly profit of 100,000 US dollars was quite impressive in Chinatown.
It was very famous in Chinatown. Not only was it popular among the locals, but even tourists and foreigners liked to visit it.
When Yang Ming walked into the Yang family's restaurant, a busy and quiet atmosphere greeted him. Before he could look around, his aunt, who was sitting at the cashier at the door, saw him and scolded him with a cold face,"Where did you go? Why are you so late?”
"Hurry up and eat, then come out and help.”
The so-called help was just to exploit Yang Ming, the child laborer.
Yang Ming worked part-time as a waiter and food delivery man, but he only got five dollars, which was quite cheap.
First Aunt did not like him. Apart from the fact that he was tall and had a huge appetite, she was also dissatisfied with First Uncle's arrangements for the mother and son.
In her opinion, the mother and son were just country bumpkins who had gone to their relatives.
They were very poor and had no ability. Moreover, they were from a single-parent family. They had to eat two more sets of bowls and chopsticks every day and arrange for housing.
He was especially unhappy with his uncle's decision to rent his house to Yang Ming and his son.
She thought that if the house was not rented to the mother and son but to the outside world, she could earn a few hundred dollars more every month. She was like Grandet, a miser. She was still brooding over the loss of a few hundred dollars a month, and even disliked the mother and son.
If it weren't for his uncle's coordination and good words from time to time, coupled with Mother Yang's hard work, they would only get more looks and ridicule.
Because of her senses, her cousin's relationship with the mother and son was also cold and indifferent. When they met, it was difficult to see a good expression on their faces. They were almost treated as outsiders.
Fortunately, his cousin, Yang Lehai, liked basketball as much as Yang Ming. He usually liked to watch games, especially the Knicks and Jordan. They had some common topics and the generation gap was not big, so his attitude towards Yang Ming was relatively good.
However, it was only slightly better.
When they went to the stadium to watch the game, although Yang Lehai drove back and forth like a driver, Yang Ming was the one who paid for the gas and half of the ticket.
Yang Ming and Mother Yang had long felt their family's attitude towards them, but after a year of getting along, they were already used to it.
Mother Yang was swallowing her anger for Yang Ming. Other than the system's mission, the latter had lived two lives. His mentality was relaxed and he didn't want to be calculative and make things difficult for his uncle.
Of course, if he had the chance, he would still take his mother away from this place immediately and stay away from his aunt's family.
And now, this opportunity had come.
Yang Ming didn't reply and went straight into the kitchen. After filling his stomach in a hurry, he changed into his uniform and began to serve the dishes.
Even though he was wearing a waiter's uniform, he was still quite handsome. Every customer at the table, whether they knew him or not, would involuntarily smile at him.
Looking at his busy appearance, Mother Yang, who was directing the others at the kitchen door, was very distressed.
At his age, he should be studying hard, not doing such a job!
In order to make more time to spend on Curry's shooting and ball control training cards to improve himself, Yang Ming announced his resignation at night when he was having dinner with his mother and uncle's family.
His mother looked very relieved and understanding. His uncle didn't say anything and agreed.
However, his aunt was very dissatisfied because she did not have a tall and hardworking worker like him. Her face was dark the entire time.
Her attitude and expression made him frown deeply and was very unhappy. It also strengthened his determination to improve himself as soon as possible and prepare for the trial training.
He had to get his mother out of here as soon as possible!
