I just saw a part of a Chinese drama and this girl calls a guy that. I think it's something rude because he called her a pig lady before that so she's being mean back at him.

When two people are at one
in their inmost hearts,
they shatter even the strength of iron or bronze.
And when two people understand each other
in their inmost hearts,
their words are sweet and strong,
like the fragrance of orchids.

I want to say this kind of expressions in Chinese
- He was THAT sad THAT he started to cry
- There were some things WHICH make him feel unhappy
- The tool THAT he used was the one WITH WHICH he fixed the computer.
- Show me WHAT I am looking for to know WHAT to do
As the last point I want to know how to express conclusive ideas in Chinese, I mean this as below:
John: I do not know how to say her that somebody stole her car
Maria: You have to say it to her (the expression /say it/ would replace -- say her to somebody stole her car --)
Jonh: But I do not like to do it(the word / it / would replace -- to say her to somebody stole her car --)
Charles: Jonh you have to (the expression /have to/ would replace -- to say her to somebody stole her car --)

I've heard that "Never write a letter while you are angry" is commonly referenced as a Chinese proverb. Is there a 4-word 成语 idiom that corresponds to this? Or a 谚语 phrase? How would I actually speak Chinese idiom for it (I don't think it would be a direct translation..?)
