Tradionnal Chinese
鳳姐道：『我想起來了，她還沒有名字，你就給她起一個。一則借借你的壽；二則不怕你惱，莊稼人到底貧苦些，你給她起個名字，反而壓得住呢。』

Simple Translation
Sister Feng said, “I remember. If she doesn’t have a name, you can give her one. One is to lend her your life; the other is not afraid of your annoyance. The farmer is poorer. You can give her a name, but you can’t help it.”
