When it came time to go back, your mother had already started to scrimp and save like a new daughter-in-law in charge of running the household, and we switched to a Ping Kuai coach and a regular city bus. It took four hours longer but saved us half our transportation money.
回程時，你母親已開始有新媳婦持家的精打細算，我們於是改搭平快車和公路局普通車回台北，多花了四個小時，但是節省了一半車錢。
