Sunny world


When in high school, I attended a school beside the sea in Tainan.

The school is famous for ruthless discipline of the students, and to require foreign students to live on campus, I was forced to live in school dormitories, provision in the school, after the lights are not allowed to get out of school, otherwise recorded less than a.

Ironically, I high school is written for, and were eventually stayed on view, ready to drop out, reason: over the wall after the lights go out, often advised not to listen to, translated into the vernacular, I say: are school meals is poor, often slipped out at midnight to eat Plain Noodles, inadvertently being caught.

Eat Plain Noodles to eat small, almost dropped out, this is a very strange story.

School walls have a Northern veterans, opened a small noodle shops. He noodles do abnormal fruit, like rubbing a lot of effort into, very delicate. And he loves that North wind past, we often would rather risk being demerit of danger, to eat his plain noodle.

At that time no student could afford to eat meat, only eat Plain Noodles, floating a few stars in oil, three or four leaves of cabbage, seven or eight tablets of minced scallion was pure, as in early spring, but you can eat to show up in the wheat fragrance, enjoy endless aftertastes. Occasionally a few penny in his pocket, was for a piece of "Orchid" on a plane, feeling that the world is not the kind of happy days.

Now, I start to think about "Plain Noodles and orchids", think it's the name of the very beautiful, its beauty is plain, poetic, with life normal aroma. But at the time, we began to say: "the boss, a bowl of Plain Noodles, place a orchid."Saliva was already streaming full cheeks.

I was in high school no guests, often remembered outside of Plain Noodles, and sell Northern boss, volume or even his face, voice, and the color and shape of the bowl, is also at hand.

Over the years, it is not easy to eat good Plain Noodles, and very few people eat Plain Noodles, I once to Yuen Street and called a bowl of Plain Noodles, the boss looked me up and down half a day, sighed a sigh of relief that: "I already have more than five years did not sell a bowl of Plain Noodles are! "Finally, he cooks me Plain Noodles, telling how flashy the modern people, there is no beef, ribs, piggy has eat a bowl of noodles, his conclusion was:" a few years, many children may not know that Plain Noodles is something. "

Plain Noodles is not just a bowl of noodles, our generation who came from the spring world, spring world is not necessarily good for the world, but it is a clean, plain, with human warmth of the world.

In fact, just before high school, I have already strongly believes that material conditions of people even eat Plain Noodles, you can have a dignity and happiness.
