　　Granny Xus friends and relatives all came， too， but Chinese dont give presents at birthdays， they give money. Granny Xu got a whole pile of money for her birthday. She called Yusi to her. Take this pile of money and print the Lotus Sutra for these friends and relatives?

　　许老太太的亲朋好友都来了，中国人在生日上送钱贺寿，而不是送礼物。许老太太在生日那天就收到了一大笔钱。她把御史叫来用这笔钱给亲友们印法华经。

　　In those days， printing was very difficult， and books were hard to come by. Most books were printed by carving the text on boards， word by word， page by page. The Lotus Sutra is pretty long， so it took three years to finish.

　　在那时，印书很麻烦，书籍也很难得。大多数书都要得逐字逐页的刻写在板上后，才能印刷。法华经很长，花了三年才印完。

　　The Sutra was ready just in time for her 63rd birthday， so she invited all her friends and relatives to another birthday party， and this time， she gave every one of them a copy of the Lotus Sutra.

　　在她63岁生日时，佛经终于印完了。她邀请她所有的亲戚朋友再来参加她的寿宴，这一次，她送给他们每人一本经书。
