Text message: I'm starving and go home for dinner right away.

Jinyu: You said you would go home for dinner soon, and I would go hot food and hot rice immediately. Half an hour passed, why did you go home? I thought you had fallen from "just" to "below".

Huilan: I met Lawyer Long on the road and chatted together for a while.

Jin Yu: It’s good that you didn’t fall from “just” to “below”.

Huilan: Eat soon, starve to death.

Jinyu: Be careful when speaking next time. You can’t just do it right away, as the food is already hot and cold.

Huilan: I'll turn on the TV after a little warm up.

Jinyu: Can’t you wait for dinner before watching?

Huilan: When the meal is over, the emperor will run away.

Jinyu: I am the emperor all day long, don’t make my stomach yellow.

Huilan: My stomach is not good at all.

Jin Yu: Then you shouldn’t watch TV.

Huilan: Watching TV is still nagging.

Jin Yu: If you don’t listen to the old man’s words, you will be saved. Eating and watching TV will affect your digestive juices.

Huilan: People are old and tell a lot of truth. Tell you the news and be careful to open the door.

Jin Yu: A cliché.

Huilan: Don’t be afraid of repetition of good words, the mother of memory after repeated repetition.

Jin Yu: Then just talk about it to enhance memory.

Huilan: Last night, a lady was broadcast and enthusiastically opened the door. It didn't matter if it opened, but who could have imagined that the man held a knife and put it on his neck. The lady asked the knife holder: "What's the reason for you?" The knife holder replied: "I'm here to rob money."

Jin Yu: Are you robbed?

Huilan: Fortunately, footsteps came from the corridor, and the knife-holder left when he saw that the situation was not good.

Jin Yu: It was a false alarm, maybe there were many nightmares. The sound of footsteps came from the corridor, and the sounds were so beautiful.

Huilan: Do you still dare to open the door in the future?

Jinyu: I can hardly come out.

Huilan: Before opening the door, see who it is, and don’t let others hurt yourself.

Jin Yu: Always keep your safety in mind, how can you not listen to good words?

Huilan: You won’t be fooled after listening to it, and you will have good shows every day.
