Grandma Leung and her husband, Mr. Wan, had three children. This was a fairly small family as “average” families in Nga Tsin Wai usually had six or seven kids. Back then, the couple worked very hard for their living, toiling long hours every day. As Grandma Leung often took the middle shift in the factory, it was often past 11:00 pm at night when she returned home. Poor Grandma Leung often endured miserable hardships, not even daring to take time off when her children were sick for fear of losing her attendance bonus and daily wage. When such problems arose, she simply requested that the foreman let her leave work an hour early so that she could take her sick child to the doctor’s. By the time she and her charge returned home, it was frequently already 1:00 am! On the day her youngest son was born, Grandma Leung clocked off from work at 3:00 pm so she could collect her wage and attendance bonus! She then went into labour, suffering considerable pain until the boy arrived into the world at around 12:00 midnight.
