Society and Family Life
Like most ordinary Chinese families, my family life is busy and meaningful. My family members often get up at about six o'clock in the mornings. My wife deals with my little kid's chores while I'm cooking the breakfast. I drive my daughter to her school and then to my work. My wife takes the subway to her hospital. Around 4:30 p.m., I pick up my daughter and do some grocery shopping. My wife is good at cooking. So when we arrive home, a delicious meal is waiting for us. During the eating, we chat about interesting things from our daily life and discuss current affairs. We go to bed at 10 p.m.
