Li Yang’s wife worries that the roast chicken they just ate might be undercooked. Soon She realises her fear might be coming from a past severe food poisoning incident, and jokingly considers never eating chicken again.

—————————————————————————————————

妻子：你觉得我们刚刚吃的那个烤鸡熟了吗？

李阳：熟了吧？你觉得肚子不舒服吗？

妻子：没有。就是问问。我吃的时候觉得鸡肉中间很软。

李阳：别担心。那是腌过的鸡肉，煮熟了也很软的。你知道的。你这是心理作用。

妻子：嗯，好吧。我多想了。哎，‘一朝被蛇咬，十年怕井绳’。就是我的那次非常严重的食物中毒害的，每次我在外面吃鸡肉都会担心。

李阳：嗯，我知道。那次你的食物中毒是很严重，是救护车来抬你去医院急救的。

妻子：别说了别说了。说起我就起鸡皮疙瘩。要不，我以后再也不吃鸡肉了吧。
