重情义

(zhònɡ qínɡyì)

A: Who is that? I recall that he came here several times before.

这个人是谁?我记得他来过好几次。

(zhèɡè rén shìshuí? wǒ jìdé tā lái ɡuò hǎo jǐcì.)

B: This is one of my former students. I helped him when he was having trouble with his studies. To show his gratitude, every year he brings some fruit and snacks to come visit me.

这是我以前的学生,他以前学习生活有困难的时候我帮过他,为了表示感谢,他每年都会带着水果点心过来看我。

(zhèshì wǒ yǐqián de xuéshēnɡ, tā yǐqián xuéxí shēnɡhuó yǒu kùnnán de shíhòu wǒ bānɡ ɡuò tā, wèi le biǎoshì ɡǎnxiè, tā měinián dōu huì dài zhe shuǐɡuǒ diǎnxīn ɡuòlái kàn wǒ.)

哇,他真是一个重情义的人,能做到这样很不容易。

(wa,tā zhēnshì yíɡè zhònɡ qínɡyì de rén, nénɡ zuòdào zhèyànɡ hěn bù rónɡyì.)

B: Yep. He is the only one who visits me.

是呀,一直来看我的就只有他了。
