102.Old Wives' Tales

Connie and Willy are talking about the previous lesson.

C： Do you believe what they say about chili peppers？

W： Frankly speaking， I don't. The last time I got hurt playing soccer， my mom told me not to eat anything spicy. She said it will irritate the wound.

C： My mom is the same. For example， according to her， eating fish eyes is good for the eyes.

W： If you think that's weird， listen to this. My mom says eating pigs' brains makes you smart.

C： Are you kidding？ Frankly speaking， I don't believe in any of these of wives' tales.

W： I wish you would tell that to my mom. I'm sick of eating pigs' brains.

C： Poor guy！

W： Don't tell anyone， OK？ Or I'll never hear the end of it .

C： Ok. It doesn't work anyway.

W： What do you mean？

C： I'm only kidding. You're at least as smart as a pig.
