Chapter 22 Keiko Saga

In Beijing Kangle Restaurant, I met Ms. Saga Jingzi. This happened last autumn.At that time, it was not known that she was the Japanese translator and narrator of the TV documentary "Aixinjue Luohao's Half Life".Brother Zhang San was well informed. He said that the film shot in Beijing is going to premiere in Japan at the end of this month. That night, when Mr. Pu Jie, his wife and his younger siblings were invited to come, I went up to shake hands and express my gratitude. I was surprised to find a very nice Japanese lady in a red sweater coming with me. Pu Jie then introduced her as Mrs. Sagahiro's niece, who had just flown in from Japan in the afternoon, and since everyone was acquaintances, they brought her along with them.The host of course welcomes it.

During the dinner, the four of us sat very close to each other. It seemed that the two of them could not speak Chinese well, and the author did not understand Japanese, so Pu Jie had to translate the conversation. The old man Pu Jie was in a good mood that day and often told some jokes.He talked about the last time he returned to Japan with his wife, and I said: You have been away from Japan for many years, but you still speak Japanese very well? He smiled and said: Make do with it (meaning reluctantly).My grandchildren can't understand the Japanese I speak, and they often make fun of me.The twenty-two-year-old Keiko Saga has only met her uncle and aunt in recent years.

Sitting on my right is the driver, a young man.We invited him to drink Moutai, but he refused anyway, saying it was discipline. So Pu Jie went on and said solemnly: Yes, it's not for this, I have learned to drive a long time ago in my whole life.After speaking, he took another big sip of Moutai. The topic turned to Saga Keiko's Chinese level.He smiled and said to Mimi: She is studying Chinese at the language school, she is very good, I can tell you one thing She knew what was going on, and immediately pressed her uncle's arm in a coquettish attitude of a junior, not allowing him to continue. Later, he still said: One day, when she was shopping in Xisi, the people on the road were crowded. I took a lot of things, squeezed them around, got very angry, and finally rushed out, cursing: Fuck!Is her Chinese not bad?

Saga Hiroshi always maintained his aristocratic demeanor, smiling and not saying a word.Probably because of her age, she is getting fatter than before, and she can't walk very easily.When she went downstairs, her niece often supported and took care of her, very considerate and careful. (1982, quoted from Tang Qiong Jinghua Xiaoji of Sanlian Bookstore)
