Soliloquy of a Juneberry

Funny Relatives #1

this is an actual exchange that took place between my 5th uncle and 4th aunt-in-law some days ago...

One fine day, my 5th uncle's handphone started ringing
(pick up phone)

5th uncle: Hello??
4th aunt: Hello!! Where are you huh??

5th uncle (thinking to himself.. how come got woman call me.. ask me where i am somemore.. not my wife leh... must be wrong number): eh..Who are you looking for??
4th aunt: You lor?

5th uncle (huh??): You are??
4th aunt: Me lor...

5th uncle (er...) : I think you call wrong number..
4th aunt: no lah.. i looking for yoooouuuu.

5th uncle ( ?!!! ): Who you??
4th aunt: Me looorrr...
5th uncle (-_-")
.
.
.

This cycle was repeated until my aunt got beyond the "formalities" and talked abt what she called my uncle for and he only guessed who she is after that...


Moral of the story: YOu will enjoy CNY as much as I do if you have relatives who "lack of a vein in their grey matter up there" (literal translation of shao3 gen1 jing1)
