At the same time, Su Yuan traced Fangzheng's gaze downstairs and happened to see stray cats and dogs playing under a tree.
After a while, Fangzheng remained silent.
Su Yuan asked, "Master, are you sympathizing with those stray cats and dogs? Sigh, in today's society, there are always some people who like to buy but don't like to keep. That's why there are stray cats and dogs everywhere. "
Fangzheng remained silent.
Su Yuan felt a little bored …
At this time, Qian Ying and Su Cancan also packed up and followed.
Qian Ying asked curiously, "What are you two looking at? What are you talking about? "
Su Yuan smiled bitterly. "Look at the stray cats and dogs below."
Su Cancan leaned against the window and said, "Mom, why don't we adopt one?"
"No." Qian Ying rejected him sternly before diverting the topic. "Venerable One, what are you looking at?"
Su Yuan was just about to say that the Venerable One was in a daze when he saw Fangzheng smile. "It's nothing. This Penniless Monk suddenly thought of a story when he saw these cats and dogs."
"Story, what story?" Su Cancan asked curiously.
Su Yuan and Qian Ying were a little curious. "What story?"
Fangzheng said, "This Penniless Monk was also very mischievous when he was young. Once, This Penniless Monk caught a dog and insisted that it climb a tree. In the end, the dog failed and nearly bit This Penniless Monk."
When Su Cancan heard this, she pursed her lips and smiled. "Serves you right."
Fangzheng continued. "Later, I couldn't figure it out, so I returned to ask This Penniless Monk's master. This Penniless Monk asked, 'Master, why can't dogs climb trees? I was kind enough to teach him how to climb trees, why did he bite me? "
"What did your master say?" Qian Ying was curious.
Fangzheng smiled. "This Penniless Monk's master didn't say a word. Instead, This Penniless Monk brought This Penniless Monk down the mountain to catch fish. After an entire afternoon, This Penniless Carp was the size of a palm. Master gave me the Crucian Carp and asked me to teach it how to run on land … "
Su Cancan smiled and said, "Isn't this nonsense? How can a fish run? "
Fangzheng said, "That's right. This Penniless Monk said the same thing. Therefore, This Penniless Monk's master said, 'That's right. How can fish run on the ground? It can't do things that go against its nature, so why do you force it? '"
The moment Fangzheng said that, the smiling Su Cancan was suddenly stunned.
Su Yuan and Qian Ying were also stunned. Then, they fell into deep thought.
When Fangzheng saw this, he smiled and did not say a word. He continued looking at the cats and dogs downstairs. After a long while, he said faintly, "To make a dog climb a tree, he will forever think of himself as trash. A child who has lost his confidence is like a boat that has lost its driving force and compass. He will only be drifting with the waves … Even if the wind blows him to the City of Gold, so what? It wasn't like he was going somewhere he wanted to go. Without dreams, how are we different from salted fish? "
When Salted Fish heard that, he secretly pinched Fangzheng.
Fangzheng frowned and didn't retaliate. Instead, he silently made a mental note to settle the score with Salted Fish when he returned.
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, Su Yuan and Qian Ying trembled as they subconsciously looked at Su Cancan.
Seeing that the three of them were deep in thought, Fangzheng smiled and silently retreated. After casting A Golden Millet Dream, he left the Su family.
It was unknown when the three of them came to their senses, but the moment they woke up, Su Yuan and Qian Ying said to Su Cancan in unison, "Cancan, why don't you learn painting tomorrow?"
Then, the two of them were taken aback as they looked at each other and laughed.
Su Cancan covered her smiling face in disbelief and screamed, "Really?!"
"When has Daddy ever lied to you? However, if you want to thank someone, thank Master … Uh, where's Master? "Just as Su Yuan was about to point to his side, he realized that Fangzheng had disappeared.
Su Cancan hurriedly searched the house, but she didn't see Fangzheng. "He seems to have left."
Qian Ying walked over and hugged Su Cancan's shoulder. "Cancan, you met a benefactor when you went out this time. This master is a capable person. Your father and I were suddenly enlightened by his words. To be honest, we understand these principles, but we don't know why. When he said that, we really thought about it seriously. In the past, I thought that you had a good future, a good job, and not having to worry about food and drink was better than anything else. But from the looks of it … "
Su Yuan nodded and said, "From the looks of it, it's just a beautiful puppet that lives. Cancan, pursue what you want. Daddy and Daddy support you! "
"Thank you, Daddy, Mommy …" Su Cancan cried as she threw herself into her mother's arms and cried uncontrollably. As she cried, she said, "Thank you, thank you … Boohoo … It's been more than ten years. I've been waiting for this day. Boohoo … Mommy, let me tell you, I secretly went to the national competition and won second place in the city. I won the National Excellence Award …"
Upon hearing this, Qian Ying and Su Yuan were clearly taken aback. They looked at each other and saw the regret in each other's eyes. In their eyes, Su Cancan had always been a silly child who liked to cause trouble and couldn't do anything well. They never expected that this silly child had relied on self-study, secretly learning, and secretly practicing to achieve such achievements!
The two of them recalled the story Fangzheng had told them and his words. They once again confirmed their thoughts. Perhaps, nurturing a child according to his interests and talent was the best way to nurture him.
Being hugged by her parents, although Su Cancan was crying, her heart was filled with a sense of bliss that she had never felt before. At the same time, a figure appeared in her heart. It was a young monk in tattered clothes with a fair and delicate face … She mumbled inwardly, "Where did you go? Although he's not as handsome as Abbot Fangzheng, thank you … "
"Master, aren't we spending the night at the Su family? If we continue walking, we will be sleeping on the road, "Salted Fish mumbled.
Fangzheng said, "So be it. With my physique, sleeping on the road isn't a big deal."
Salted Fish thought about it and agreed. Hence, he changed the topic and asked, "Master, you left so decisively just now. Why did you go back and eavesdrop on the door?"
Fangzheng rolled his eyes and said, "I left to give them space to erupt in their private emotions. I eavesdropped to see the results. If my words don't work, I'll have to find another way … "
Salted Fish was taken aback before he smacked his lips and said, "Master, actually, I don't approve of what you are doing. In the past, when I was on the Internet, I saw people say that although the current education system isn't the best, it's already the fairest method. Poor children rely on this to make a comeback … You tricked their children into learning painting. What if they can't get into university? Even if they get in, it doesn't seem like it's that easy to survive in painting, right? "
Fangzheng smiled. "There's no such thing as a good job in the world. All jobs are left to those who are skilled. If people don't work hard, they can even carry bricks. There are masters in every profession. If you can reach the pinnacle in any profession, your life won't be bad. As for the study you mentioned, that's indeed a problem.
However, Su Cancan's family doesn't have this problem. Her family has the conditions to support her on the path of painting.
