Acheng:Thank you so much. [to Sophia] I can't take this.

Sophia: She will insist. It's a rosary. She has millions of them. Take it.

Acheng:What did she mean just now about raising pigs?

Sophia: Oh! My grandmother used to say “raising pigs, raising kids...at least you can eat the pigs.”

Acheng:Ha-ha. I get it. That's funny. Your cousin's a real sarcastic lady.

Sophia: She likes to complain about her macho husband and her “bambinos”, but she loves them all dearly.

阿　震：謝謝。(對(duì)蘇菲亞)我不能收下。

蘇菲亞：她會(huì)堅(jiān)持要你收下。這是念珠。這東西她多得是。收下吧。

阿　震：她剛剛說(shuō)養(yǎng)豬是什幺意思?

蘇菲亞：喔!我祖母常說(shuō)「養(yǎng)小孩還不如養(yǎng)豬，至少養(yǎng)豬還吃得到豬肉?！?/p>

阿　震：哈哈。我懂了。真好玩。你表妹還真是個(gè)會(huì)挖苦人的小姐。
