l want to celebrate with you at first,

but, Auntie said the weather is fine

& the restaurant is busy these days

Uncle Tang want me to go back earlier

l have called you twice,

but you have no response

You must be very tired, l think

in the kitchen

Besides, l`ve bought several glasses

l know, they will be all broken

sooner or later

So l`ve hid one of them

One day when you need this glass,

give me a phone, and...

l`ll tell you where it was hidden

Goodbye, Ah-ngor!

Everybody!

Be quiet! Be quiet!

All my relatives and all my guests,

today is the wedding of

my brother, Ah-site

We`ve prepared some simple

food to serve you

Would we all raise our glasses

lt`s really a shame!

Eat quickly if you want to!

We must leave soon

or else l`ll faint

Don`t be like that, father!

Don`t hold any celebration

Celebrating on the roof

is extremely unbelievable

l just don`t know how to teach you

You have never done

a good work in the past
