Hi all:

Can anyone please tell me the English meaning of 啥乱弄? Thanks!

Messing around, F-king around
Explanation:
There are a few typos in this phrase, notably for Chairman Mao 毛主席. There's no fixed term for this phrase. The sentence roughly means "what do you mean I am messing around? Responding to Chairman Mao is something you'd mess around with?", etc.....

The phrase conveys the meaning of "messing around". However think of it this way: "when it comes to working for Chairman Mao, he doesn't fuck around". So it has that meaning of more seriousness in the whole "messing around" affair.
