A: 老闆，你看一下，裝修費一共是五萬八，材料費是三萬二，零頭我都已經去掉了。
lǎobǎn, nǐ kàn yīxià, zhuāngxiūfèi yīgòng shì wǔwàn bā, cáiliàofèi shì sānwàn èr, língtóu wǒ dōu yǐjīng qùdiào le.
Sir, take a look. The renovation fee is 58,000 total. The materials fee is 32,000. I've already rounded off the remaining bit.
B: 哎，李師傅，你先別急著跟我們算錢啊，我們還沒有驗收好呢。
āi, Lǐ shīfu, nǐ xiān bié jí zhe gēn wǒmen suàn qián a, wǒmen hái méiyǒu yànshōu hǎo ne.
Hey, Mr. Li, don't be in such a hurry to add up all the money just yet. We still haven't finished the final check yet.
A: 當然，當然，先驗收，後結賬。那你們慢慢看，我明天再來，先走了。
dāngrán, dāngrán, xiān yànshōu, hòu jiézhàng. nà nǐmen mànmān kàn, wǒ míngtiān zài lái, xiān zǒu le.
Of course, of course. First do the final check and then we'll settle accounts. You guys take your time and have a look. I'll come again tomorrow. I'm going to get going.
C: 那李師傅再見。
nà Lǐ shīfu zàijiàn.
See you later, Mr. Li.
B: 嗯，看下來，基本上沒什麼大問題，是吧，老婆？
ng4, kànxiàlai, jīběn shang méi shénme dà wèntí, shì ba, lǎopó?
Yeah. Looking it over, there don't seem to be any major problems, right sweetie?
C: 老公，你有沒有跟裝修隊說，我們要在每個房間都裝網絡端口的？
lǎogōng, nǐ yǒumeiyǒu gēn zhuāngxiūduì shuō, wǒmen yào zài měi ge fángjiān dōu zhuāng wǎngluò duānkǒu de?
Honey, did you tell the renovation crew that we wanted an internet jack in every room?
B: 哎呀！
āiyā!
Oh no!
C: 你瞧瞧，吩咐你的事老是忘記。
nǐ qiáoqiao, fēnfù nǐ de shì lǎoshi wàngjì.
See, whatever I ask you to do you always forget.
B: 老婆，都怪我不好，事情一多就容易忘。
lǎopó, dōu guài wǒ bù hǎo, shìqing yī duō jiù róngyì wàng.
Honey, it's all my fault. When there's lots to do it just gets easy to forget.
C: 現在上網只能到書房了，而且就一個端口。你看隔壁那個老外家裡，人家每個房間都有端口，連陽臺上都有。
xiànzài shàngwǎng zhǐnéng dào shūfáng le, érqiě jiù yī ge duānkǒu. nǐ kàn gébì nà ge lǎowài jiālǐ, rénjiā měi ge fángjiān dōu yǒu duānkǒu, lián yángtái shang dōu yǒu.
Right now we can only get online in the study. And there's only one internet jack. At that foreigner's house next door, there's a jack in every room. Even the balcony has one.
B: 你是說隔壁那個高個子老外？
nǐ shì shuō gébì nà ge gāogèzi lǎowài?
Are you talking about that tall foreigner next door?
C: 是啊，你看人家想得多周到。
shì a, nǐ kàn rénjiā xiǎng de duō zhōudào.
Yeah. See, they thought everything through.
B: 哎呀，現在布暗線已經不可能了，都裝修好了，要不拉明線？
āiyā, xiànzài bù ànxiàn yǐjīng bù kěnéng le, dōu zhuāngxiū hǎo le, yàobu lā míngxiàn?
Oh gee, it won't be possible to install the cords internally now. Everything has already been renovated. How about we run the cords on the outside?
C: 那多難看！
nà duō nánkàn!
That will look terrible!
B: 哦，我們可以裝個無線路由器嘛，我明天請教一下我們公司的網管，他知道怎麼弄。
ò, wǒmen kěyǐ zhuāng ge wúxiàn lùyóuqì ma, wǒ míngtiān qǐngjiào yīxià wǒmen gōngsī de wǎngguǎn, tā zhīdào zěnme nòng.
OK, we can install a wireless router. I'll ask my company's tech guy for help tomorrow. He knows how to do it.
C: 只能這樣了。
zhǐnéng zhèyàng le.
That's the only thing we can do.
B: 老婆，你來看，淋浴房的花灑位置好像有點偏。
lǎopó, nǐ lái kàn, línyùfáng de huāsǎ wèizhi hǎoxiàng yǒudiǎnr piān.
Honey, look here. It looks like the shower head is a little off-center.
C: 嗯，明天讓李師傅來調一下。
ng4, míngtiān ràng Lǐ shīfu lái tiáo yīxià.
Yeah. Have Mr. Li inspect it tomorrow.
B: 行，我找個本子記下來。
xíng, wǒ zhǎo ge běnzi jì xiàlai.
OK. I'll look for a notebook and write it down.
C: 這裡好像有點掉漆了。
zhèlǐ hǎoxiàng yǒudiǎnr diàoqī le.
It looks like the paint is coming off a bit here.
B: 嗯，讓他們來補一下。記下來，記下來。
ng4, ràng tāmen lái bǔ yīxià. jì xiàlai, jì xiàlai.
Yeah, have them fix that. Write it down, write it down.
C: 這樣多好，記下來就不會忘了。
zhèyàng duō hǎo, jì xiàlai jiù bù huì wàng le.
This is a lot better. If we write it down, then we won't forget it.
B: 是啊，好記性不如爛筆頭嘛。
shì a, hǎo jìxìng bùrú làn bǐtóu ma.
Yeah. A good memory isn't as good as a bad pen.
