Li Dawang reached out to take the greens, and Zhang Hongmei thought about how he had helped her many times.
I can't expect the guests to do the work!
That's so impolite.
"No need, I can do it."
As the two were pulling at each other, their hands touched.
Scalded by the heat, Zhang Hongmei quickly threw down the vegetables in her hands: "Then you wash them! I'll cook the noodles."
Li Dawang rubbed his fingers against the spot he had just touched.
In that small patch of land, it seems that Zhang Hongmei's warmth still lingers.
He washed the vegetables without making a sound and then chopped them into small pieces.
Zhang Hongmei's noodles were cooked, and he put the vegetables into the pot.

"It smells pretty good?"
Zhang Hongmei smiled and said, "I don't know how to make anything else either."
"Come back when you have time and I'll cook some noodles. If you're particular about food, please do."
She cooked a lot of noodles, two whole bowls.
Worried that he wouldn't have enough to eat, I specially put four eggs in the pot.
Li Dawang looked at the two eggs in the bowl and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Zhang Hongmei nodded: "I've already eaten. I ate at the hospital cafeteria."
Li Dawang turned around and went into the kitchen to get a small bowl and a pair of chopsticks.
"I don't like eggs, so you can eat them for me."
He picked out all the eggs and handed them to Zhang Hongmei.
Zhang Hongmei declined, saying, "I cooked this for you on purpose."
"Noodles don't keep you full. You're out and about every day, so you need to eat your fill."
Li Dawang continued to persuade him, "You eat it! It would be a waste if I didn't eat it, and we don't allow food to be wasted."
Zhang Hongmei had no choice but to take it, and the two of them ate it bite by bite.
She suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
They look a bit like a couple eating together.
She shook her head silently, realizing she must be overthinking things!
They originally came from the same place, so it's only right that they help each other.
