Lunching at a local eatery, I overheard a conversation between a mother and daughter about plans for a wedding.
在当地的一家饭店吃午饭时，我听到母女俩的对话，她们在筹划一场婚礼。
The young woman protested that she was the one being married and should be allowed to make the decisions.
那个年轻的女人抗议说要结婚的是她，应该允许她做主。
“After all, Mother,” the bride-to-be said, “you had your wedding 23 years ago.”
“不管怎么说，”未来的新娘说，“你23年前就举办过婚礼了呀。”
“No, dear,” came the reply. “That was my mother’s wedding.”
“不，亲爱的，”她母亲回答说，“那是我妈妈的婚礼。”
