Last night, it rained suddenly and the wind blew, so I slept soundly and didn't consume wine.
Ask the shutter man, Haitang is still there.
You know what? You know what? It should be green, fat, red and thin.
Translation:
The rain was so thin and heavy last night that I was drunk and didn't wake up.
Asked about the people in the curtain, she replied: Haitang is still beautiful.
Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? It should be green, red and thin.
