I heard strangers' talking
在公众场合,我平常不太注意其他人的对话,这也是不合适的。但是上星期六,我在社区事务中心处理个人事务,由于需要排队等位,所以我听见了坐在我旁边一位女士的对话。她在电话里说,由于大厅里面人比较多,还要大约一小时才能结束处理她的事务。她让她的老公先煮米饭,稍后她将去菜市场买菜回家,和孩子一起吃饭。看样子,她的老公接受了她的建议,因为她露出了笑容。我听了之后有种莫名其妙的感动,虽然这是很平常的对话。但是从这个对话中,我得知这是一位有责任心的母亲。在中国,越来越多的人赞成“Family First”这个理念。同时烹饪也是一种表达爱的方式。我周围的朋友和家人也是这么做的。在那一天,我甚至也有想要马上回家给我的家人做饭的想法。
In public, I usually don't pay much attention to other people's conversations, which is not appropriate. But last Saturday, I was dealing with personal affairs at the Community Affairs Center. I needed to wait in line for a bit, so I heard a conversation with a lady sitting next to me. I guess this call was made to her husband, because her expression was relaxed and her tone was moderate. She said on the phone that because there were more people in the hall, it would take about an hour to finish processing her affairs. She asked her husband to cook the rice first. Later, she would go to the market to buy food and go home to eat with the children. It seems that her husband accepted her advice because she smiled.
After listening to it, I was touched by some inexplicable feelings, although this was a very common conversation. But from this conversation, I learned that this is a responsible mother. In China, more and more people are in favor of the concept of “Family First”. Cooking at the same time is also a way of expressing love. Friends and family around me do the same. On that day, I even had the idea of going home to cook for my family.
