交情

I lent him the money for old times’ sake.

念在旧情，我把钱借给他了。

It's good to take up the threads of our old friendship after such a long absence.

时隔这么久之后重新恢复我们老情, 这很好。

The character of the pine and cypress is shown in frigid winter;the sincerity of one’s friend is shown in adverse circumstances.

岁寒知松柏,难见情。
