5. comments:
1. Niang their father and one of Niang's child left for one year until one day tehir father came and picked them up. From there they moved to Shanghai. This is the start where Niang starts to control everyone.
2. On her first day of school, she was late because she was left alone and no one took her to school. Then after school no one bothered to pick her up until she was able to call her father. Though from her prospective he didn't seem to care much.....
3. When Niang was slapping her daughter since her daughter didn't reconize her. Because she left for a long time. Only Adeline stood up to Niang because she couldn't take it anymore. That made Niang mad. I feel like Niang is very unreasonable and she is not suited as a mother at all.
4. When Niang finally took everyone's money and fare out. Everyone was mad and was going to go agaisnt her but they couldn't walkign to school every morning so they gave in except Adeline. She was determine to go agaisnt Niang. She has a very pursued personality.
5. Everything changed after Nai Nai died, it left the family in confusion and no one was able to do anything except Naing.

4.Question:
1. Why couldn't Ye Ye (Grandfather in chinese) do anything about the family orders and money managment? Isn't Ye Ye suppose to have the highest status?
2. Why couldn't her siblings forgive her already? It really wasn't her fault.
3. What happened to Niang's faimly?
4. How was school for Adeline? Was it still great like it was in Tianjin?
