汪。

190
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:55,000
The doctor says I've got rheumatism and that it would be best for me not to come in contact with cold water.

191
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:06,000
医生说我得了风湿,最好不要碰冷水。

202
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000
When you see Secretary Wang, be sure to watch yourself.

Don't be careless in what you say.

204

210
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:57,000
她结婚以前对她先生了解不够,结果结婚以后很痛苦。

211
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,000
How fast?

现在还要天天吃中药,你千万要当心。

297
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:42,000
是啊,我已经告诉她了,月子里什么事都不要做,多躺着,多休息,多吃好的。

298
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,000
身体就恢复得快一点。

299
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:50,000
我走了,过几天再来看你跟小宝宝。

300
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:57,000
等一下,你带几个红蛋去,满月的时候再请您吃满月酒。
