It has been three years since I came to Shanghai, and I have not been back to my hometown in these three years. I was born in Guizhou, where I have my parents, my sister, and my brother. I lived in a small city in Guizhou for eighteen years. I left there to go to college. After graduation, I came to Shanghai. I went back three times in seven years. It has been three years since I last went back. I have to go back this time. Last time my sister got married, I didn't go back. I sent 3,000 yuan to my parents. I said one thousand yuan for you and two thousand yuan for my sister. This changed the fourth digit, the highest digit in my passbook, from six to three. This time I have to go back, I have to go back. My mother got sick half a year ago. She suddenly fainted on the way home from shopping for groceries. My brother said that luckily the problem was not serious and it was just a very small stroke.
