How do you know that they are arguing? Do you speak Chinese as well. Chinese people do speak loud and they have lots of expression while speaking. I am Chinese myself who owned a restaurant. Sometimes when my employees talk to one another they always sound like they are arguing. But in your situation I would step out of the restaurant and come back in 10 mins. Who cares what they are aruging about as long as your order is correct.

I dunno, hope they don't start yelling at you in Chinese? I mean, how does their arguing affect whether or not you're going to get your take-out? Maybe it's the fact that you're nosy and can't understand what they're arguing about? Ha! I'm kidding, but really, if you got your take-out, does it matter? Just ignore them, pray your take-out doesn't end up on the walls or on either of them, or that they don't suddenly close the restaurant so they can continue fighting, thus, effectively ending your long-awaited wish of having egg rolls. Man, I'd be more worried about THAT than why/what they were arguing about in Chinese.

As long as the food comes in a timely manner and is cooked correctly and clean than it's none of my business what goes on between a husband and wife in their personal life.

Usually, it won't matter as long as my order is taken care of specially I'll be gone with my food.
If it comes to the point where it made me feel uncomfortable, I'll just leave.
If I already paid, I'll wait in my car till my order is ready.
I must say it is very poor manner, and I won't return to that restaurant in the future.

wait for your food and leave - it's none of your business what they're arguing about... you don't speak Chinese how do you know if they're even arguing.. they could be debating politics or something that they are both oppositely passionate about.
