礼拜天有空儿吗？陪我去逛街怎么样？我想去给丈夫买个生日礼物。 我可能去不了，最近事情多。 你最近是不是工作特别忙？ 我现在上有老，下有小。除了工作以外，家里还有母亲和儿子需要照顾。 真是辛苦啊！你最近脸色不太好，是不是哪儿不舒服？要注意多休息啊。 没事儿，谢谢！不过现在我很幸福，因为在母亲面前我可以做一个永远长不大的孩子；在孩子面前我又是一个能照顾他的母亲，这让我有了努力的方向。

Méishìr, xièxie! Búguò xiànzài wǒ hěn xìngfú, yīnwèi zài mǔqīn miànqián wǒ kěyǐ zuò yí gè yǒngyuǎn zhǎng bú dà de háizi; zài háizi miànqián wǒ yòu shì yí gè néng zhàogù tā de mǔqīn, zhè ràng wǒ yǒu le nǔlì de fāngxiàng.

Are you free on Sunday? How about going shopping with me? I want to go buy a birthday present for my husband. I might not be able to go; there's a lot going on lately. Have you been especially busy at work lately? I now have elderly to care for and children to raise. Besides work, I also need to take care of my mother and my son at home. You’ve been working so hard! You haven’t been looking very well lately; are you feeling unwell? Be sure to get more rest. No problem, thanks! But right now I am very happy, because in front of my mother I can be a child who will never grow up; in front of my child I am also a mother who can take care of him, and this gives me a direction to strive for.
