A 63 year old Chinese woman, Ding Liang got a rude shock
recently when she was told not to come visiting because she was too ugly and
would embarrass him according to social media, SMACK. Liang had travelled five
hours from her village to meet her son and his newborn child in the Hangzou
province of China.
Years ago, her son moved to the city to pursue a college
education- he did well at school, landed a job at a reputable car dealer shop
and got married. When she attended the wedding dressed as a peasant, her son
was very furious, refusing to recognize her as his mother. “I don’t mind, I
know he has his own life now, so I understand that he doesn’t call and only
speaks to me when I ring him,” Ding said. “But when he rang me the other day to
say that he had a baby, I wanted to visit him and bring my grandchild some
gifts. He said I shouldn’t come that I would embarrass him.
On the day of her journey, Ding woke up at 4:00am and
dressed in the clothes that she had purchased specially for the occasion.
Unfortunately, she didn’t have her son’s address and when she called him he didn’t
answer the phone. “Before 10am, I was wondering here and there searching. Two
people asked me what I was looking for. I told them that I was looking for my
son who was a car salesman. Several others tried calling him but he didn’t answer.
One of them texted him pretending to be a potential customer, but he only got a
reply stating that “Chief Xu was on a business trip to Xiamen”.
Disappointed, Ding finally decided to return to her village
with all the gifts and packages she bought for her grandchild.
