Don’t worry about Mai Miao

Aunt, what did you promise my mom again?

Mai Miao, I’ve promised your mom that

ӧ֕ฎ౯ᥝଆ֦ತ੒᨝
I will not only help you find a boyfriend myself

౯ᥝ‫قݟݩ‬ਹՈ ྯՈӷӻᏝ೰ຽ
I’ll also call on the other members of the family to get two candidates each for you

ᛠঌ ఍ᬯߺ‫د‬ฎತ੒᨝ࠡ ᬯ‫ړ‬ก੪ฎṛ‫׏‬ᲀ
Aunt, you’re not helping me find a boyfriend; you’re obviously doing a sales promo

Yeah, I’ve noted all that down

ᨀᨀ অ ٚᥠ

That last few days, through my old leaders, classmates and our neighbors, I’ve got a total of ten
young men

֦፡ߕঌᬯૡ֢ாଶ
Look, how workaholic Mom is!

಩‫ق‬ਹՈ᮷ձ‫ۓ‬᮷ਠ౮ԧ
She has fulfilled the task for the whole family alone

ঌ ܳਸ਼
Mom, you’re just great!

ᬯ໏Ӟ๶౯ժ੪፜ஞԧ
Now we’re all relieved

੒ࠡ
Yes, indeed

‫ݢ‬ఠ‫ ޚ‬᮷ӧᭇ‫ݳ‬
But the pity is none of them is suitable

ᮎ‫ݳ‬ᭇӧᭇ‫ݳ‬஑Ἀᝇ᧔ԧᓒ
But Mai Miao has the final say whether they are suitable or not

ᮎἈᝇᬮဌᥠᶎޫ੪ᦏ֦Ӟᐥ᮷ᕳ‫ވ‬٬ԧ
She hasn’t met them yet and you already vetoed them all

ᬯ ᥝ఍ᮎԍ᧔ ᮎ౯ժᭌᬯԶ᮷ӧᭇ‫ݳ‬ԧ
By your standards none of the candidates we found is suitable

੪ฎ
Yeah

ӧӞਧ‫ މ‬ԞᦜํӻᄋᗑԏṺޫ
Not necessarily so. There might be exceptions

᧔᧔፡ ᧔᧔፡ ᧔᧔፡

Tell me in detail. Tell me in detail

Okay, let me speak first

౯ժ‫֖ܔ‬ᘌ‫ڝ‬ጱ‫ݷ ৼد‬ᇈय़਍ླӱ ӞᤒՈ಍ ੪ฎଙᕉय़ԧᅩ‫د‬

The son of my colleague Lao Liu is a graduate from a prestigious university very handsome, but
only a bit too old

ग़य़‫ޚ‬
How old?

ӣ‫م܈‬
36
ड़୮Ἀᝇ‫ݏݏ‬ጱԧ ‫ވ‬٬
Old enough to be Mai Miao’s uncle. Veto!

ፓ‫ޫڹ‬౯‫ํݝ‬ᬯӞӻՈᭌ
Currently, I’ve got only this one candidate

ဌํਠ౮೰ຽ
I failed to fulfill my required quota

ாଶӧᑌຄ ൉‫ڊ‬ಢᦧӞེ
Your attitude is not active. You should be criticized

Mom, when I dated Liu Ya at first, you were not as rigorous as you are now

᧡᧔ጱ
Who says I was not?

ᒫӞེ๶ߕժਹ ౯੒঄‫ܦ‬᨝੪உ૧ࡶ
When she came to our home for the first time, I already had a bad impression of her

ᮎӞॠ๶ߕժਹ ੷ᆐ᧔౯‫ڬ‬Ꮹ‫ڬ‬ӧଗ‫ٳ‬
When she came to our home that day, she even said I didn’t wash the dishes cleanly

ঌ ঌ ᤈԧ ᮷ᬦ݄Ԫ‫د‬ԧ
Mom, okay, that’s all what happened in the past

᥺୭ྋփ
Let’s come to the point

ٌਫ౯ᬯ‫ׯد‬ฎํӷӻ
Actually I know two boys who are still available

‫ى‬Ძᙗਧ஑ᤩ౯ঌᕳPASS ԧ
The crux of the matter is that Mom will definitely let them pass without consideration

֦෬ᆐತԧ ֦੪᧔᧔ ᦏঌ‫ލލ‬

Since you have got two, tell mom about them

᧔‫މ‬
Go ahead

ᮎ౯੪‫᧔ض‬Ӟ‫ݩ‬Ոᭌ‫މ‬
First I’ll talk about Candidate No.1.

౯ঌᙗਧӧ‫఺ݶ‬
My mom will definitely not accept him

֦᧔ӧ᧔
Do you want to tell me or not

Ԟӧฎጮᶾ Ԟӧฎ‫ާۓل‬
He is not a white-collar worker, neither a public servant
൥֛ᙙጱ
He is an athlete

൥֛ᙙጱ
An athlete?

౯੪ࡅཻ൥֛ᙙጱ
I just like athletes

ঌ ঌ ᪙఍ဌ‫ى‬ᔮ
Mom, it has nothing to do with you

౯ฎ᧔‫ޚ‬Ἀᝇࡅཻ൥֛ᙙጱ
I mean Mai Miao likes athletes

Go on

Ἀᝇ Ոਹᬯੜվৼ ଙἻԫ‫܈‬Բ ᫝ṛӞᔂ‫ ك‬᝕‫૳ג‬࿈ Ԫӱํ౮

Mai Miao, this young man, 25 years old, 1.8 meters tall, very handsome, is an accomplished
athlete.

ᮎӻᡱ᧔ሿࣁᬮဌํ ࣁࢵਹᕆྲᩦӾ೭ᬦॹ ‫ݢ‬ฎՈਹ

Though so far he hasn’t won any award in national-level competitions, he…

ᛠঌ ᬯԞ‫ݞ‬Ԫӱํ౮ࠡ
Aunt, you say he is an accomplished athlete?

֦ӧᚆ፡Ոਹሿࣁ
You mustn’t judge him by his present achievements

ᥝ፡Ոਹਖ਼๶
You should pay attention to his future

ฎࠡ ፲‫ط‬ᥝනᳩᬱӞᅩ‫د‬
Yeah, I should have a farsighted point of view

ਹꁿԞӧᲙ
His family background is also very good

՜ጱྮՅ᪙౯ฎ‫ݶ‬ᤈ
His mother is also a retired teacher

ᬯ໏Ӟ๶ ֦ժտํஉग़‫᥺᧍ݶو‬
Thus you will have a lot of common language

੒‫ޚ‬
Yeah

֦ժํဌํ‫᥺᧍ݶو‬ᬯӧ᯿ᥝ‫މ‬
But it isn’t important whether you have common language or not

When you have a child, I’ll help you take care of it

ᛠঌమ஑ॡޮ‫ک‬ԧ ౯‫఺ݶ‬ԧ
Aunt is so thoughtful. I agree

֦‫఺ݶ‬ဌํ
Your agreement is useless

౯ฎ᧔౯๊Ἀᝇ‫఺ݶ‬ԧ
I mean I agree on behalf of Mai Miao

݄֦ጱ
Shut up

Ἀᝇ ֦੪‫ڦ‬ᇮᨠԧ
Mai Miao, don’t hesitate anymore

෬ᆐᛠঌᬯԍᜉᝒአஞ ᮎ౯੪݄ᥠӞᶎ‫މ‬
Since Aunt is so considerate, I agree to meet him

The sunshine today is so strong

บ஑౯ ᚽӤጱጼᙐ᮷ዢ

Didn’t you apply some sun cream?

Yes, I did

‫ݢ‬ฎ֦፡ ᬮฎบᕁԧ

֦ٚජᅩ‫د‬ᬯӻ
Apply some of this stuff

ᬯ໏Ӟ๶ ጼᙐ੪ӧտዢ Ԟӧտ‫ݒ‬ἓԧ

Thus, your skin won’t be painful, and neither will it get suntanned

What are that young man’s advantages?

He is taller and more handsome, and runs faster than you

Why could he run faster than I do?

He is an athlete
