Your mom speaks very good Cantonese. I can understand only some of the things she says. I'm SA born Chinese with ancestral roots from Guangzhou; can hardly speak Cantonese and wouldn't even recognize my name in Chinese even if it was shown to me on a piece of paper. So sad.😰

[@CantoneseFoodRecipes]

No stress

Would you mom adopt me?
