过桥米线

蒙méng自zì的de书shū生shēng在zài湖hú心xīn亭tíng读书dú shū，妻子qī zi每měi天tiān过guo桥qiáo送sòng饭fàn，饭fàn到dào了liǎo都dōu凉liáng了liǎo。

A scholar of Mengzi read on an islet pavilion; his wife brought meals over the bridge — always cold on arrival.

一yī天tiān她tā发现fā xiàn鸡jī汤tāng面miàn上shàng有yǒu一yī层céng油yóu，像xiàng被子bèi zi一样yī yàng盖gài着zhuó，汤tāng很hěn长zhǎng时间shí jiān都dōu是shì热rè的de。

One day she found that a film of oil on chicken broth kept it hot for hours.

她tā就jìu带dài着zhuó滚gǔn汤tāng、生shēng肉ròu片piàn和hé米mǐ线xiàn过guo桥qiáo，到dào了liǎo亭tíng子zi才cái下xià米mǐ线xiàn，书shū生shēng吃chī上shàng了liǎo热rè饭fàn。

She carried boiling broth, raw sliced meat and rice noodles across, adding them at the pavilion — hot food at last.

书shū生shēng的de妻子qī zi天天tiān tiān过guo桥qiáo送sòng米mǐ线xiàn，这zhè道dào菜cài就jìu叫jiào过guo桥qiáo米mǐ线xiàn。

The dish is named for her crossing — 'Crossing-the-Bridge Noodles'.
