211
00:
36:18,842 -- 00:36:21,843Since we,re poor,
we'll give her an ugly name.

00:
36:29,052 -- 00:36:32,053Our ancestors have always taught us so.

254
00:

"Whatever" forever.

left to give them.

43:43,320 -- 00:43:46,320How can you say calling her
"Whatever" is fine?

282
00:
46:18,008 -- 00:46:21,008there was a poor couple
who loved each other very much.
