During lunch time</SPAN>
            </SPAN>      </SPAN>   </SPAN>Oct.17, 2009</SPAN>
Stepping out of the Mountain Villa of Secluded Beauty, it was already 12:00. How time flies. We went to search for somewhere to have a lunch. Steve told me that he knew a place named “Ya ba sheng jian” which is quite famous.</SPAN>
苏州</SPAN>“</SPAN>最好吃</SPAN>”</SPAN>的生煎，绝非</SPAN>“</SPAN>浪得虚名</SPAN>”</SPAN>。刚出锅的生煎，</SPAN>“</SPAN>热气腾腾的</SPAN>”</SPAN>，</SPAN>“</SPAN>轻轻一咬</SPAN>”</SPAN>，里头全是</SPAN>“</SPAN>汤汁</SPAN>”</SPAN>，</SPAN>“</SPAN>甜而不腻</SPAN>”</SPAN>；肉馅</SPAN>“</SPAN>非常新鲜</SPAN>”</SPAN>，</SPAN>“</SPAN>有咬劲</SPAN>”</SPAN>；皮子煎得</SPAN>“</SPAN>脆脆的</SPAN>”</SPAN>，还带着</SPAN>“</SPAN>芝麻</SPAN>”</SPAN>的香气。最好再搭配一碗</SPAN>“</SPAN>泡泡小馄饨</SPAN>”</SPAN>，草根的幸福，便在这草根的美食里体现。</SPAN>
 </SPAN>
 
We walked a couple of blocks and finally found the very site. To my surprise, there were still large numbers of people standing in a queue.</SPAN>
After waiting for a while, I took a position outside the door, just the time when someone else finished eating and started to leave. Steve went to get the noodles for us as well as some “sheng jian bao”.</SPAN>
 
 
 
 
I was sitting quietly, waiting for the food to come. To be honest, I am not innocent of the responsibility. I was, in fact, very hungry after so long a walk.</SPAN>
But I shall be thankful that I did not go inside as I saw an old couple and a young girl. I guess they are grandparents and granddaughter. So I moved the bag in order to make room for them. As you know, people all like the food here, so it’s no wonder that it would be somewhat crowed.</SPAN>
The old man, on arriving at the site, took the desk beside me to his couple, and asked her to sit with her granddaughter and he himself went to fetch the food.</SPAN>
Several minutes later, Steve went out with a dish which contains two bowls of noodles as well as some soup. We also had our “sheng jian bao” finally.</SPAN>
Well, we are, not annoyed at all, but glad to have an old couple and a young girl to be our mates during the lunch time. However, as is known to all, the table could only accommodate for four people each time. So the old man waited beside his beloved one to look at them while they were eating.  </SPAN></SPAN>
Life is so wonderful, as you would see some moving scenes anywhere. Although some are quite insignificant that we would even not bother to care about them, they are real, and touching. Such an old man is, of course, a gentle man.</SPAN>
