漸漸地，以後沒人記得奶奶的真名了。戰時逃往越南的寇特·裡利王亭叫她做巴王。 巴旺」在越南語裡是最尊敬的老師的意思。以後誰都都這麼叫她的了。
瞞著奶奶隱藏馬先生可不容易，但特凡意志堅定。每當奶奶叫醒他問起小藍的男友時，他都會在他和奶奶共用的雙層床上嚎啕大哭。這是他為了支持大姐必須做的小事。
同樣，後來祥和和蘋果果子問他，他也會採取同樣的策略。最終，爸爸媽媽會同意大姐的婚事，但過程十分艱難，耗時良久。 馬先生其實也不是壞人。
特凡知道他沒有妻子的原因，是因為他很早就輟學供妹妹上大學。這是特凡很敬佩這類人的傳統。 馬先生還主動為特凡買玩具，並邀請他去家裡玩雅達利電視遊戲。
奶奶去打麻將的時候，小藍常常偷偷溜出去和馬先生約會。她會給特凡煮麵條，配上點心，並囑咐他如果奶奶回家就幫她掩蓋行踪。奶奶討厭回家，這倒不是個難事。
馬先生甚至出錢讓小藍去旺角上夜校，所以小藍的英文進步很快。特凡沒有再計較他年紀大的缺點，皆因有很多選擇。只要她選擇了馬先生，特凡也會選擇他。
Gradually no-one remembered Grandma's actual name in the future. Court Ri called her Bah Wong while running to Vietnam in war time. Bah means respectful teacher in Vietnam. They all called her Bah Wong.
It's not easy to hide Horse from Grandma, but Tefan had a will of steel. Whenever his Grandma woke him up to ask about Blue's boyfriend, he would cry violently upon the double-deckered bed that he shared. It's a little thing he must do to support Blue.
Similarly Heaven and Apple got exactly the same treatment if they were to ask him. In the end Dad and Mum let Blue marry, but that was a great struggle and took mighty long time to get there. Horse isn't bad.
Tefan knew he didn't have a wife, because he quit school young to support his sister to go to university. That's a tradition Tefan could respect in others. Mr Horse also took upon himself to buy Tefan toys and invited him to play Atari Games in his home.
Often Blue had to sneak out to date Horse while Grandma went to play Mahjong. She would cook Tefan a noodle with snack and asked to cover her tracks with whatever he could lie about if Grandma came home. It's a thought but Grandma hated her home.
Mr Horse even paid Blue to go to the night school in Mongkok, so Blue became really good in English. Tefan overlooked his fault of being older and Blue had many choices. She chose Horse and Tefan would, too.
