You nag others like that? Chang Le looked at Fangzheng in surprise.
Fangzheng thought and said, Thats right.
When? Chang Le subconsciously asked.
Fangzheng thought for a moment and said, Back then, This Penniless Monk seemed to be over a year old.
Chang Le was taken aback for a moment before shaking his head. That makes you a child. Your limbs are unstable and your curiosity is great. Its normal
Fangzheng nodded as well. Thats right. Back then, my body wasnt fully developed, so everything I did was normal. Fathers can all tolerate it, but when a father is old and his body is sick, things no longer are in balance. If his brain isnt working well, is that abnormal?
When Chang Le heard that, he looked at Fangzheng in surprise.
A glint flashed in Fangzhengs eyes as Chang Le felt the world before him turn blurry. Following that, the world before him changed
Chang Le looked at the door in front of him, dumbfounded. He rubbed his eyes and surveyed his surroundings.
This was an old staircase, the railings and doors of the stairs were all from the 80s or 90s. There was a word Prosperity stuck on the door, and on two sides were couplets.
Chang Le found this scene very familiar. He exclaimed, This This is my home when I was young? I almost forgot what it looked like! But, how did I return to this place? Rebirth?
Unfortunately, no one answered Chang Les question.
At this moment, an innocent voice came from downstairs. Daddy, what did you buy?
Daddy bought noodles. A familiar mans voice rang out. His voice was magnetic and pleasant, with a tinge of warmth!
At that moment, Chang Les eyes turned red. He could tell that it was his fathers voice!
Daddy, what did you buy? the child asked again.
Daddy bought noodles. Once we are home, shall Daddy make some dumplings for Lele? The man chuckled.
Alright, Lele wants to eat dumplings! the boy exclaimed excitedly.
Alright, Ill let Lele eat huge dumplings. Its all for you.
At the same time, the two of them had already appeared in front of Chang Le. A man in an old vest carried a two-year-old boy on his back and a small bag of noodles in one hand as he slowly walked upstairs.
Upon seeing these two people, Chang Le instantly recognized them. They were him and his father, Chang Jianghe!
Dad Chang Le subconsciously called out.
Unfortunately, Chang Jianghe didnt seem to see him, nor could he hear him. He carried the young Chang Le on his back and prepared to open the door.
When Chang Le saw this, he subconsciously reached out to grab him. However, his hand passed through Chang Jianghes body.
Chang Le was stunned.
Daddy, whats on the door? Little Chang Le asked.
This is the word prosperity. It brings prosperity to our family. With it, Lele can grow up happily every day, said Chang Jianghe.
Little Chang Le said, Prosperity Daddy, can we bring prosperity home?
Lele, this is to be hung on the door. You cant bring it in, Chang Jianghe replied patiently as he opened the door with one hand.
After entering the house, Chang Jianghe happily placed Little Chang Le on the ground and said, Daddy is going to make dumplings. Lele, can you play by yourself for a while?
No. Little Chang Le hurriedly shook his head and grabbed Chang Jianghes pants.
Lele, why not follow Daddy into the kitchen and watch Daddy cook something delicious for you? Chang Jianghe asked.
Alright, Little Chang Le said happily.
When they entered the kitchen, Little Chang Le looked up and asked, Daddy, what are you doing?
Chang Jianghe smiled and said, Daddy is cutting vegetables to make the fillings.
Little Chang Le: Why?
Chang Jianghe chopped the cabbage as he explained to Little Chang Le. He was busy, but he constantly paid attention to Little Chang Le. It was as though he had infinite patience when facing little Chang Le.
It was time to eat
Daddy, Lele wants to eat dumplings. Little Chang Le stared at the golden egg and shouted.
Chang Jianghe smiled and said, Alright. Lele, eat the dumplings. Ill give them all to Lele. Lele will be strong and healthy.
Dumplings, delicious! Delicious! Dumplings! Lele still wants more. Chang Le cried out as he ate.
Alright, all for you, Lele
Daddy, are chicken eggs laid by chickens?
Thats right. A hen lays eggs. Its those hens who cluck
Cluck! Cluck can Lele lay an egg?
When Lele grows up, he can do so.
Then Lele has to grow up quickly
Piak!
Waa In his joy, Little Chang Le swept the bowl on the table to the ground, smashing it to pieces. He instantly cried out in fear.
Chang Jianghe hurriedly hugged Little Chang Le in his arms and said with a smile, Alright, Lele dont cry. Its just a broken bowl. When Lele grows up, you wont break bowls anymore Lele just sit here and dont move. Let Daddy clean up the bowl, alright?
Alright Little Chang Le stopped crying after hearing Chang Jianghes words. However, he still looked pitifully at Chang Jianghe who was cleaning up the broken shards on the ground. The two dumplings on the ground were also stored away. Chang Jianghe brought them to the kitchen, washed them clean, and poured them into his own bowl. Then, he picked up a clean dumpling and placed it in a small plate, handing it to Lele.
Chang Le stood by the side and watched. His eyes were red as he mumbled, I remember now. At that time, all the bowls at home were shattered by me but Daddy never scolded me. Also, dumplings, I love eating dumplings made by Daddy. Whenever he has time, hell make dumplings for me when he has the money
Daddy, the dumplings are delicious.
Mmm, delicious.
Daddy, look at the skin of the dumplings. Look
Mm, looks nice.
Daddy, the dumplings soup is delicious.
Then drink more.
Daddy, theres meat in the dumplings! Look!
Very big meat, Lele shall eat it quickly
Upon hearing the conversation between the father and son and watching how his father answered his questions patiently, Chang Le covered his face and cried, Daddy, Im sorry. Im not human I was wrong
Amitabha. Patron, its getting late. Go home early. At that moment, a Buddhist proclamation sounded.
Chang Le was taken aback as he recalled that he shouldnt be here. He should be chatting with a monk on a park bench!
In the blink of an eye, Chang Le was surprised to discover that he was still sitting on a bench. The monk dressed in tattered clothes was smiling at him.
This I Master, I just Chang Le did not know what to say.
Fangzheng smiled. Patron, return home early.
Eh Ill go home first. Master, why arent you going home? Chang Le asked.
Fangzheng said with a bitter smile, This Penniless Monk temporarily has no home to return
Then why dont you come to my place? I have space at home, how about that? Chang Le asked.
Fangzheng was truly hungry. Besides, he could accept this kind gesture after what he had done, so he nodded in agreement.
Chang Le swept away the haze from before and happily got up. He led Fangzheng towards his house.
