a large piece of pork here? Take it back! I don’t want
it!”
“Beauty, last time you my station troops, I hadn’t
looked after you well. I’ve been laden with guilt. As
an apology, I have brought you this large piece of
pork so as to atone for my crime. I should have sent
it to your home, but I don’t know your home address.
So I have brought it here. Please accept it!” the
regimental commander said, watching Xi Si
expectantly.
“You have looked after me very well. You don’t
have to feel guilty! This present is too precious. We
are only common friends. We’ve only known each
other for about one month. To me, you are no more
than a stranger. You shouldn’t give me such a
precious present! I can’t accept it. Please take it back.
I don’t deserve it!”
