Beginner to Elementary Level Chinese Story 河平面馆 (He Ping Eatery) 1 |
|
河平面馆 1 大山脚下，有一个叫＂河平＂的小面馆。 面馆是一对夫妻开的。 丈夫叫大河，妻子叫平平。 人们进山出山的时候，都会经过这个面馆。 平平负责招呼客人，大河负责做面。 两个人天天在一起。时间长了，因为一些小事，他们就会争吵起来。 |

He Ping Eatery 1 At the foot of a mountain, there was a small eatery called “He Ping Eatery”. It was run by a couple. The husband was called Da He, and the wife was Ping Ping. When people got in and out of the mountain, they had to go pass the eatery. Ping Ping took care of the customers, and Da He did the cooking. The two of them were together every day. With time passed by, they started to fight over trivia things. |

河平面馆 2 每一天中午，一位头发花白的老人都会来面馆吃面。 吃完面他就进山，傍晚的时候再下山回家。 平平好奇，问老人，＂老人家进山工作？＂ ＂不是的，是去看我老伴儿。＂老人答。 ＂噢。＂平平点点头，但心里觉得奇怪。 |

He Ping Eatery 2 Each noon, a gray-haired old man would come to their eatery for lunch. After lunch, he would go into the mountains, and back out late in the afternoon and go home. Ping Ping was curious, so she asked, “Do you work in the mountains?” “No, I go there to see my wife.” The old man answered. “Uhm.” Ping Ping nodded, but thought that it was a bit weird. |
|
老人走后，她对大河念叨， ＂他为什么不和老伴儿住在一起？这样跑来跑去，不麻烦吗？＂ 大河没好气地说， ＂也许他老伴儿和你一样唠叨，他受不了她，所以每天只和她待半天。＂ 平平听了很生气，推了大河一下， ＂不爱听我唠叨你走啊！有本事去城里混出个样来，别只会在这儿惹我生气！＂ 因为这儿，两人又吵了半天，在面馆的客人劝说下，才停下来。 |

lǎorén zǒu hòu， tā duì dàhé niàndao， ”tā wèishénme bùhé lǎobànr zhù zàiyīqǐ？ zhèyàng pǎo lái pǎo qù， bù máfan ma？＂ dàhé méi hǎo qì dì shuō， ”yěxǔ tā lǎobànr hé nǐ yīyàng láodao， tā shòubùliǎo tā， suǒyǐ měitiān zhǐ hé tā dāi bàntiān。＂ píngpíng tīng le hěn shēngqì， tuī le dàhé yīxià， ” bù ài tīng wǒ láodao nǐ zǒu ā！ yǒu běnshì qù chéng lǐ hùn chū gè yàng lái， bié zhǐ huì zài zhèr rě wǒ shēngqì！＂ yīnwèi zhèr， liǎng rén yòu chǎo le bàntiān， zài miàn guǎn de kèrén quànshuō xià， cái tíngxiàlái。 |
|
When the old man left, she murmured to Da He, “Why he doesn’t live with his wife instead? Isn’t it too tiring to run back and force like this?” Da He answered in an unpleasant tone, “Maybe his wife is as nagging as you are, he can’t stand it, and can only bear to stay with her for half day.” Ping Ping was provoked and gave Da He a push, “If you don’t like my nagging then please leave! If you have the guts then go make a living in the city instead of making me mad here!” Because of that, the two of them started to quarrel with each other until their customers separated them. |

河平面馆 3 有一天，外面下暴雨, 从早上到中午一个客人都没有， 夫妻俩不知为了什么，又开始争吵。 这时，白发老人走了进来。 平平忙过去招呼他。 ＂老人家快请坐！今天雨那么大，您还来看老伴儿，她一定好感动呢！＂ 她一边说，一边用眼睛瞪大河。大河转身进了厨房。 ＂但愿吧。＂老人抖了抖身上的雨水，＂她走的时候也是个雨天。＂ 平平抬头看了看老人，＂她走的时候？＂ |

He Ping Eatery 3 One day, it was pouring outside. From morning to noon, no one came. The couple started quarrelling again out of nowhere. Then the white-haired old man came in. Ping Ping stepped forward to greet him. “Please sit down, Sir! It’s raining so hard today. How happy your wife would be that you still come to visit her (in such weather)!” “I hope so.” The old man shook off the rain on his clothes, “It was also a raining day when she left.” Ping Ping raised her head and looked at the old man,”When she left?” |

河平面馆 4 “是啊，她下葬时，我都不在。所以现在要好好补偿她。＂ 老人说完，点了个手拉面。 平平去厨房让大河做面，自己又回来问老人, ＂那你每天进山，是去给老伴儿上坟？＂ 老人点点头，说，＂是呵，去和她说说以前没来得及说的话。＂ 老人吃完面离开后，平平来到大河面前，叹了口气说， ＂多好的男人啊，可惜我没这福气。＂ 大河哼了一声，＂他老伴儿肯定不会象你这样，永不知足。＂ |

|
He Ping Eatery 4 “Yes, I was not even there when she was buried. Therefore, I need to make it up for her now.” Then the old man ordered a “Shou La Mian”. Ping Ping went to the kitchen to pass on the order to Da He. Then she came back and asked the old man, “So you actually visit your wife in the cemetery every day? ” The old man nodded and said,”Yes, I go there and chat with her on things that I hadn’t had a chance to talk with her.” After the old man finished lunch and left, Ping Ping went back to Da He’s side and sighed, “What a good man. It’s a pity that I didn’t marry one.” Da He snapped,”I’m sure his wife was not hard to please as you are.” |

He Ping Eatery 5 Soon it was Moon Festival, “He Ping Eatery” became very busy with growing customers that went into the mountains to see the moon. The couple spent the next few days busy serving their customers, leaving no time to fight with each other. As soon as the festival was over, Da He couldn’t get out of bed. |
|
你这样懒，我们什么时候才能把生意做大一点？＂ 平平一边说，一边把他的衣服重重地扔到他的脸上。 他一下跳了起来，涨红了脸，大声说， “多睡两分钟会死？！你就不能让我清静些？＂ 接下来，两人又没完没了地吵起来。 |
|

|
“Look what time is it now? Do you want your customer to wait for you to
get up? How could you expect our business to grow being as lazy as you are?” Ping Ping threw his clothes on his face while saying that. He jumped up with an angry face and shouted, “Would anyone die if I sleep for two more minutes?! Why can’t you just leave me alone?” Soon after, the two of them went on another fight. |
|
河平面馆 6 这天客人少。到中午的时候，平平和大河还在生气。 这时，白发老人又准时来了。 “ 一碗手拉面！＂他刚说完，就注意到平平的表情。 “ 您等等啊！＂平平换成笑脸，又朝厨房喊了一声，“ 一碗手拉面！＂ |
|

|
He Ping Eatery 6 It was a quiet day, customers were sparse. When it was noon, Ping Ping and Da He were still mad at each other. At that time, the white-hair old man came in on his usual time. “One Shou La Mian!” As soon as he called out his order, he noticed the look on Ping Ping’s face. “Please wait for a little while!” Ping Ping put on a smile, and then called out to the kitchen, “A Shou La Mian!” |
|
老人低声问，“ 你们又吵架啦？＂ 平平点点头，又摇摇头，“ 没…没有啦。＂ 老人笑笑，“ 为啥吵啊？不是天大的事，两个人忍忍就过去了。 |
|
lǎorén dīshēng wèn，“ nǐmen yòu chǎojià la？＂ píngpíng diǎn diǎntóu， yòu yáo yáotóu，“ méi… méiyǒu la。＂ lǎorén xiào xiào，“ wèishá chǎo ā？ bùshì tiāndà de shì， liǎng gèrén rěn rěn jiù guòqu le。 |
|
The old man lowered his voice and asked, ” Were the two of you
quarrelling again?” Ping Ping nodded and then shook her head. “No … We didn’t.” The old man smiled and asked,”Why did you fight? If it is not a big deal, a bit more tolerance would do. |
|
抓紧时间说该说的话， 别象我，等了二十年，才明白该说的没机会说， 不该说的却等不急说了。现在说什么都晚啦。＂ 老人叹了口气坐了下来。 |
|
zhuājǐnshíjiān shuō gāi shuō de huà，
bié xiàng wǒ， děng le èrshí nián， cái míngbai gāi shuō de méi jīhuì shuō， bùgāi shuō de què děng bù jí shuō le。 xiànzài shuō shénme dōu wǎn la。＂ lǎorén tàn le kǒuqì zuò le xiàlai。 |
|
It’s more worthy talking about things that are important. Not like me, after twenty long years just to realize that I had chosen to talk about the unworthy things over the worthy ones. Now it’s just too late.” The old man sighed and sit down. |
|
河平面馆 7 平平很好奇，对老人说， “瞧您，对您老伴儿那么好，天天去陪她， 刮风下雨都挡不住，您这样的人，能说什么不该说的？＂ 老人指了指自己的头发，“你能猜到我的年龄吗？＂ 平平本想说“七十＂，但又改口说“六十＂。 老人摇头，伸出五个指头说，“我才刚五十！头发全白了。背也驼了。＂ 平平吃了一惊，“您当真？＂ 老人点点头。 |
|

|
He Ping Eatery 7 Ping Ping was curious. She asked the old man, ”Look at you, you’re so kind to your wife. You are there with her every single day, what could be the worst you had regret to say?” The old man made a gesture to his own hair, “Could you guess my age?” Ping Ping thought about “seventy”, but said “sixty”. The old man shook his head, and raised five fingers, “I just turned fifty! My hair is all grey, and my back is stoop.” Ping Ping was a bit shocked, “For real?” The old man nodded. |
|
河平面馆 8 这时厨房喊了一声，＂面好了！＂ 平平对老人招呼了一声就去厨房端面了。 一进厨房，就见大河坐在椅子上，一个人抽闷烟。 平平端了面从他身边走开，没正眼看他。 出了厨房，她把面放到老人面前，让他慢慢吃， 自己到门外打扫起来。 |
|

|
He Ping Eatery 8 At that moment, the kitchen called,”The noodle is ready!” Ping Ping made a gesture to the old man and headed to the kitchen. Once in the kitchen, she saw Da He was sitting in the chair and smoking a cigarette. Ping Ping took the noodle out of the kitchen, ignoring him. Outside of the kitchen, she placed the noodle in front of the old man. Then she went out to clean, leaving him to enjoy his lunch. |
|
河平面馆 9 老人吃完面，放下钱，走出门，看到平平在前院干活。 “姑娘啊，跟你先生好好商量，你们两个别吵了，不值当！＂ “和他商量？张口就没好话。＂说到大河，平平就一肚子气。 老人慈祥地看着平平，问她，你说说我老伴儿咋死的？＂ 平平不好乱猜，就摇摇头说 “不知道＂，等着老人回答。 “是被人用剪刀捅死的。＂ 平平倒吸了一口凉气。“天哪！谁干的呀？＂ |
|

|
He Ping Eatery 9 The old man finished eating, put down some cash, stepped out to meet Ping Ping working on the front yard. “Young lady, you should have a good talk with your husband. It’s not worth bickering over trivia stuff!” “Have a good talk with him? He has nothing good to say the moment he opens his mouth.” Ping Ping became agitated when Da He is mentioned. The old man fixed a kind gaze on her and asked, “Guess how did my wife pass away?” Ping Ping was mindful of giving inappropriate guess, so she shook her head and said “don’t know”, and waited for the old man to tell. “She was stabbed to death by scissors.” Ping Ping was startled. “Gosh! Who could have done that?” |
|
河平面馆 10 “不是别人，就是你面前的我啊！＂老人一脸的悔恨。 因为一点鸡毛大的事，我和她打嘴仗， 她朝我扔了个碗，我就用剪刀捅了她。 就这样，她一下就没了。 |
|
hé píng miàn guǎn 10 “ bùshì biéren， jiùshì nǐ miànqián de wǒ ā！＂ lǎorén yī liǎn de huǐhèn。 yīnwèi yīdiǎn jīmáo dà de shì， wǒ hé tā dǎzuǐ zhàng， tā cháo wǒ rēng le gè wǎn， wǒ jiù yòng jiǎndāo tǒng le tā。 jiù zhèyàng， tā yīxià jiù méile。 |
|
He Ping Eatery 10 “It’s me, the person who’s standing right in front of you!” The old man replied with deep regrets. “Small things got escalated to a quarrel between her and me. Then she threw a bowl at me, and I stabbed her with a pair of scissors. Just like that, she died immediately. |
|
我呢，在牢里蹲了二十年，去年才出来的呀。＂ 听到这个可怕的故事，平平心里真不是滋味， 想到自己和大河的关系，也是争吵不断，不禁一阵心酸。 ＂记住我的话，两个人在一起，态度很重要。 态度好了，什么都好商量，就没有争吵的必要了。 你们还年青，日子还长呢，一定记住我的话啊。 先走了，再见！＂ |
|
wǒ ne， zài láo lǐ dūn le èrshí nián， qùnián cái chūlái de ya。＂ tīngdào zhège kěpà de gùshi， píngpíng xīnli zhēn bùshìzīwèi， xiǎngdào zìjǐ hé dàhé de guānxi， yě shì zhēngchǎo bùduàn， bùjīn yīzhèn xīnsuān。 ＂ jìzhu wǒdehuà， liǎng gèrén zàiyīqǐ， tàidu hěn zhòngyào。 tàidu hǎole， shénme dōu hǎo shāngliang， jiù méiyǒu zhēngchǎo de bìyào le。 nǐmen hái niánqīng， rìzi hái cháng ne， yīdìng jìzhu wǒdehuà ā。 xiān zǒu le， zàijiàn！＂ |
|
And I end up spending twenty years in prison till last year.” Upon hearing this terrible story, Ping Ping could not stay calm. Thinking about the bumpy relationship between her and Da He, she felt a wave of grief. “Remember my words, a better relationship comes from good attitude. With good attitude, nothing is unnegotiable. A fight is not needed. You are still so young, the road ahead of you is still long. Please remember what I said. Ok, I’m on my foot again, see you later!” |
|
河平面馆 11 平平目送老人走远，心里想着他说的话。 这时，厨房里喊起来：＂躲哪儿去了?！还不快回来？？＂ 平平急忙跑回厨房。 |
|
hé píng miàn guǎn 11 píngpíng mùsòng lǎorén zǒu yuǎn， xīnli xiǎng zhe tā shuō de huà。 zhèshí， chúfáng lǐ hǎn qilai：＂ duǒ nǎr qù le?！ hái bùkuài huílai？!＂ píngpíng jímáng pǎo huí chúfáng。 |
|
He Ping Eatery 11 Ping Ping watched the old man leaving, thinking about what he just said. At that time, the kitchen yelled,”Where the heck did you go?! Can’t you come back?!” Ping Ping ran back to the kitchen in a hurry. |
|
一进门，一股酒气迎面而来， 她见大河靠在桌前，正往嘴里灌一瓶白酒， 火气立马又上来了，老人的话，丢到了一边。 “你个没用的，大白天喝什么酒啊？你还做不做生意的？＂ 说着，她一把抢过大河手里的酒瓶，把剩下的酒全倒进了水池。 大河起身过来抢， 两人扭打起来，酒瓶落到地上, 碎了一地。 |
|

|
As soon as she stepped in, she smelled alcohol. She saw Da He was leaning against the table and drinking from a bottle of spirits. A surge of anger got the better of her and she completely forgot the old man’s advice. “You useless bum, why drink in daytime? You do want to run our business or not?” While the words were blurted out, she grabbed the bottle from his hand and poured all the spirits down the sink. Da He jumped to his feet and tried to stop her. The two of them started to hit each other, and the bottle fell down to the ground, broke into pieces. |
|
河平面馆 12 傍晚，白发老人从山上下来。 他打算去面馆吃晚饭， 虽然口袋里的钱已不多，但他想和大河聊几句, 劝劝他注意自己的脾气。 坐牢二十年出来，这个世界他已不认识。 这个世界里也没有人还认识他。 |
|

|
He Ping Eatery 12 When evening came, the old man returned from the mountains. He planned to have dinner in the eatery. Although he didn’t have much money left, he wanted to have a chat with Da He to persuade him to work on his temper. After twenty years of prison life, he barely could recognize this world. No one could recognize him neither. |
|
他好孤独，每天只能和地下的老伴儿说说话。 但＂河平面馆＂却给了他温暖。 虽然只是一碗热面，一个微笑， 几句贴心的问候，却是一天之中他唯一被人关心的时刻。 同时，那对小夫妻又让他放不下心。 他们吵吵闹闹的，跟当年的他和她简直一模一样。 |
|
tā hǎo gūdú， měitiān zhǐnéng hé dìxià de lǎobànr shuō shuōhuà。 dàn＂ hépíng miàn guǎn＂ què gěi le tā wēnnuǎn。 suīrán zhǐshì yī wǎn rè miàn， yī gè wēixiào， jǐ jù tiēxīn de wènhòu， quèshì yī tiān zhīzhōng tā wéiyī bèi rén guānxīn de shíkè。 tóngshí， nà duì xiǎo fūqī yòu ràng tā fàngbuxiàxīn。 tāmen chǎo chǎonào nào de， gēn dāngnián de tā hé tā jiǎnzhí yīmúyīyàng。 |
|
He felt so lonely that he could only confide to the wife that had been
buried underneath. Yet He Ping Eatery gave him the warmth he yearned for. A bowl of hot noodle, a smile, and heart warming greetings – it had been the only moment of the day that he felt being cared by others. At the same time, he was worried about them too. They kept fighting with each other, the same way he had been with his wife. |
|
河平面馆 13 他正想着，见迎面走来的路人议论纷纷。 于是他问一个路人，“前面出什么事了吗？＂ 路人惊恐地向山下指指， “出大事了，那家面馆的老板把老板娘给杀了。＂ 老人心一沉，急问，“哪家面馆？是哪家？＂ “还有哪家？就那家河平面馆啊！＂ 路人叹口气，惋惜地摇摇头，从老人身边走过。 老人呆呆地站在那儿，老泪纵横，自言自语道， “我来晚了，我来晚了啊！＂ |

He Ping Eatery 13 While thinking and walking, he noticed the talking of the people coming up from below. So he asked a passing-by, “Is there anything wrong down there?” The passing-by pointed his finger to the foot of the mountain with horror in his eyes, ”It’s very unfortunate, the boss of the noodle eatery killed his wife.” The old man’s heart sank, he continued to ask, “Which noodle eatery? Which one?” “Which else could it be? It’s the one called He Ping Eatery!” The passing-by sighed, shook his head in pity, and walked passed the old man. The old man stood there in shock with tears running down his face. He murmured, ”I’m late, I’m way too late!” |
