❍ 最初我没有出面清理，可是对你们很关心的。你也不错，守着这爿店，我们算是～了。(周而复《上海的早晨》Ⅰ—168) At first I didn’t put in an appearance and deal with the situation but I’ve been very concerned about both of you. I’m very pleased with the way you’ve stayed on here to look after the premises. You could say we’ve been brothers in misfortune.
❍ 小林，咱们～，过去多么亲密，……(杨沫《青春之歌》358) Little Lin,we've been friends through thick and thin; in the past we were like sisters
