My friend Yanying said: Every butterfly is the ghost of a flower from the past, coming back to find itself. Yan Ying was born small and plump, and she was always in danger of getting fat, but she never worried about it, and said very philosophically: two full breasts are better than no breasts. (This is my translation based on nephrite Wenxiang Baomanhuai. Her original words are: "Two armfuls is better than no armful") Regarding the one birth and five children in Canada, Yanying said: One plus one equals two, but in Canada, one plus one equals five. Yan Ying describes a woman's hair, which is very, very black, that black is the black of a blind person.

Yanying browsed through the pictorials at the newsstand, and after searching through them all, she didn't buy any.The newspaper vendor said sarcastically: Thank you!Yanying replied: You are welcome. Someone said: I originally planned to travel around the world, especially to see the Sahara Desert, but now there is a war.Yan Ying said: It doesn't matter, wait until their battle is over before going.The Sahara Desert will probably not be blown up.I am optimistic. When Yanying buys things, she always wipes off some change when paying the bill, even in Hongkou, a Jewish shop, she does the same.She took out the contents of the purse and said: Look, it's gone, really, it's all here.There is an extra 20 yuan, and we still have to have tea.I came here just for tea, I didn't expect to buy anything at first, but later I saw that the goods here are really good

The Jewish woman protested weakly: twenty yuan is not enough for your tea But the shop owner was moved by Yanying's childishness. Maybe he had such a brown-skinned first love, or a younger sister who died young.He smiled miserably and relented.That's all.Otherwise he couldn't do it, but for tea's sake he told her that the cakes were the best in a nearby tearoom. Yanying said: The moon screams, calling out the joy of life; a small star is its shy echo. The Chinese have this saying: Three cobblers make one Zhuge Liang.There is a similar proverb in the West: Two heads are better than one.Yanying said: Two heads are better than one on the pillow.Her words were written in the composition, and the professor who read the paper was the priest of the church.Her boldness is beyond the reach of any writer known for her audacity.

Yanying also has the meaning of being a writer, and is actively studying Chinese.Walking on the road, as soon as she saw a shop sign with a large advertisement, she stopped to study it, and then read it aloud: Dashachang.old and so on.I can recognize the watch, I can recognize the fly, you said that the song is the song of a bird: but what does the song of the watch mean?What does coffee mean? Chinese characters are read from right to left, she knows.But modern Chinese is sometimes from left to right.Whenever she reads from left to right, she happens to read from right to left.Chinese characters are infinitely intriguing, so we have to wait for this literati who can tell witty words and has other surprising ideas besides witty words to write for us.Still have to wait.
