Life makes one do all kinds of things, right? Farming the land, onecan't earn a lot of money. The family has both old and young people.The young folks need to study and the old folks need to go to thedoctor. All of this requires money. There was no choice! The resultwas that we wanted to open up a small restaurant outside our door.The food my wife makes is the tastiest in our village.A: 看 来 是 您 爱 人 的 功 劳 啊 。 那 后 来 怎 么 改 成 农 家 乐 了 ?kànlai shì nín àiren de gōngláo a。 nà hòulái zěnme gǎichéngnóngjiālè le?It looks like the credit goes to your wife!

They said theydon't have these things in the city and they had a really great time.A: 这 个 我 能 理 解 。 以 前 大 家 都 羡 慕 城 里 人 的 生 活 , 都 往 城 里 挤 。 现 在 在 城里 呆 腻 了 , 就 特 向 往 农 村 的 生 活 。 有 新 鲜 的 空 气 , 自 己 种 的 菜 , 多 美 好啊 !zhè ge wǒ néng lǐjiě。 yǐqián dàjiā dōu xiànmù chénglǐrén deshēnghuó, dōu wǎng chénglǐ jǐ。 xiànzài zài chénglǐ dāi nì le, jiù tèxiàngwǎng nóngcūn de shēnghuó。 yǒu xīnxiān de kōngqì, zìjǐzhòng de cài, duō měihǎo a!I can understand this.
