Li Ziqi is Back

If you like the Chinese traditional lifestyle, you might know this influencer, Li Ziqi.

I followed her on Weibo about eight years ago. I initially followed her not just because of the beautiful videos she made but also because she looked a little like one of my cousins.

This cousin is only 12 days younger than me. We were almost the best friends when we were kids. We entered school in the same year. Inevitably, our parents always compared our grades. Then I became the unwelcomed cousin because I always had better grades and her mother, my elder aunt would blame her for that. And then we drifted apart little by little.

Probably deep down, I hope my cousin has a strong heart and a colorful life, just like Li Ziqi.


李子柒回归了

若是对中国传统生活方式感兴趣,你大概会知道李子柒。

大概八年前,我关注了她。不仅仅因为她那些漂亮的视频,还因为她长得与我一个表妹有点点像。

这个表妹只比我小12天。小时候,我们几乎是最好的朋友。我们在同一年上学,不可避免地,总被父母辈拿来比较。后来,我就变成了讨厌的表姐,因为我总是得高分,而她妈妈我姑妈就总是拿这事责备她。再然后,我们就慢慢地渐行渐远了。

大概在内心底,我希望我的表妹能和李子柒一样,有一颗强大的心脏和多姿多彩的生活吧。

"If you're interested in the traditional Chinese lifestyle, you might know of the influencer, Li Ziqi."

This cousin (or That cousin of mine) is only 12 days younger than me.

(or We were pretty much
best friends when we were kids.)

We entered school in the same year.

Inevitably, our parents always compared our grades.

Then I became the unwelcomed cousin because I always had better grades and her mother, my elder aunt would blame her for that.

It's unusual to use "elder" or "younger" before "aunt" in English, but it was grammatically correct.

And then we drifted apart little by little.

Probably deep down, I hope my cousin has a strong heart and a colorful life, just like Li Ziqi.

Great job! Li Ziqi's videos are quite relaxing to watch.

Adding probably there seems as if you're not sure you're wishing her well.
I removed the statement because it is not really necessary.

So sad 😢. I hope your relationship gets better in the future.
I've heard of Li Ziqi. I watched her video for the first time yesterday even though I've been following her for a while. She's really dedicated and talented 💯.

Thanks again!

I thought that "Probably" was for the reason why I followed Li Ziqi, not for my hope. Was I wrong?

You are welcome :)

Yes, the probably you used there was for your hope. A synonym of probably is maybe. If you replace the word probably with maybe in the sentence, hopefully you'll understand what I'm saying.
