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。 |
|

|
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。 |

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. |
