Hot Soup
A nobleman and a businessman once met in a restaurant.For their lunch they both ordered soup.When it was brought to the table,the nobleman took a taste,but the soup was so hot that he burned his mouth,and tears came to his eyes.
Seeing this,the businessman asked him why he was weeping.The nobleman felt shame to admit that he had burned his mouth and answered,"Sir,I once had a brother who committed (犯罪) a great crime for which he was hanged,and I was thinking of his death,which made me weep."
The businessman,believing this story,began to eat his soup.He also burned his mouth,so that he had tears in his eyes.Noticing this?the nobleman asked him,"Sir,why do you weep?"
