Zhai Zhu

My grandfather is very eccentric, performing daily rituals of offering incense to himself, standing in front of his own spirit tablet and eating candles.
Villagers are fearful of my grandfather.
I am fearful of him too.
Later, I discovered that what they were afraid of was not my grandfather, but me.
Even grandfather is afraid of me.
...
My name is Chen Shi.
The Chen of honesty, the Shi of sincerity.

Above the Great Dao

Chen Shi sighed with relief, walked into the house, and asked, "Has the child cried?"


Chen Shi's expression turned solemn, "Spank them, spank harder, until they cry!"


The midwife picked up the infants one by one and spanked them. After a moment, both infants were wailing loudly.


"Congratulations, your family has gained two good seeds for scholarship. Make sure to send them to private school in the future, they will at least become Scholars," Chen Shi said to Cui E's husband with a smile.


Cui E's husband did not understand, but with the double joy, he had no time to question these matters.


It was getting late, and Chen Shi could not make it back, so he rested in Luwei Town and simply stayed inside the bell tower.
