翻譯 Translation
Qingqing: Huahua, I’ll be leaving work early today to visit a friend who is in the hospital.
Huahua: What happened to him? Why is she hospitalized?
Qingqing: She got into a motorcycle accident and broke his leg. After she was sent to the hospital, the doctors quickly scheduled her for surgery.
Huahua: That sounds so painful. Was the surgery successful? She’ll need a good recovery period.
Qingqing: It was very successful, but the doctor said it will take at least three to six months for her to fully recover.
Huahua: Don’t forget to bring six apples for her. That way, we can wish her peace and smooth recovery.
Qingqing: I was actually thinking of bringing pears. She likes eating pears.
Huahua: Yeah, don’t do that. The word “pear” sounds like “parting” in Chinese — it’s bad luck. Also, don’t say goodbye to her. Just wish her a speedy recovery.
