Chapter 7: Rose Hsu Jordan--Half and Half
Rose says that her mother, An-mei, uses her small Bible to prop up one leg of her kitchen table. She no longer carries it around as proof of her devoutness, but even though she has made it into a prop, she keeps it pristine. Rose watched her mother sweep around the Bible as she waited to tell her she was divorcing her husband, Ted. She knew her mother would want her to fight the divorce. This was ironic, since her mother originally had not approved of Ted because he was American.
Rose had a similar reception in Ted's family. At the Jordan family picnic, Ted's mother took Rose aside and told her that she could not marry Ted. She said that people would not respect a doctor with an Asian wife. Rose tried to break things off with Ted, but he was deeply upset by his mother's actions. The fact that their families hoped to keep them apart made Rose and Ted fall more deeply in love. Once they were married, Rose let Ted make all their decisions. Then, after he lost a malpractice suit, he started pushing Rose to make all their decisions. One day before Ted left on a business trip, he picked a fight with Rose to try to show her how they had grown apart. Then he called from his trip and asked for a divorce. It made Rose wonder how she could be strong when she could trust no one.
Rose says she learned to trust fate the day her mother lost her faith. Her parents had always believed in their ability to do whatever they set their minds to; they called this faith nengkan. One day, their whole family went to the beach so her father could fish. Rose had two sisters and four brothers. At the beach her mother left Rose in charge of her youngest brother, Bing. Rose watched him carefully, thinking of The Twenty-Six Malignant Gates, which showed all the terrible things that could befall a child. In a moment of chaos, she took her eyes off Bing. He fell into the water and could not be found. The family did not blame Rose for what happened, but her mother asked her to help find Bing's body. Rose went back to the beach with her mother to search for Bing. Her mother had more nengkan than ever. She prayed from her Bible and tried Chinese rituals, but they still did not find him. Rose thought she saw her mother lose faith for the first time.
Now Rose knows that she can no more save her marriage than recover Bing. Just as she saw Bing fall but could not stop him, she saw her marriage crumbling and could not prevent it. She says she has learned that "fate is shaped half by expectation, half by inattention." When you lose something you love, you rely on your faith like Rose's mother did. Rose's mother never really lost her faith. She still keeps the Bible around. She wrote Bing's name under "Deaths," lightly and in pencil.
