In the rural northeastern mountainous regions stands a tiny Buddhist temple, named One Finger Temple. It isn't a large one but it is extremely miraculous.

The temple has rice that emanates an aromatic fragrance.

The temple has sweet and refreshing water that rivals ambrosia.

The temple has Buddhas that grant wishes to the sincere.

The temple isn't large but it has everything. The temple isn't large but it has flourishing incense offerings that far exceed all temples. The temple isn't large but it attracts both citizens and foreigners that line up overnight…

The temple has a bald but handsome monk. Every day, he would bawl, "I want to renounce asceticism! I want to marry a chick that's not too pretty, have a cute baby, and lead a stable life!"

This book is a casual novel that introduces various Chinese traditional customs, as well as Buddhist ones. It strives to be a positive book, allowing people to reflect on how they should live their lives and treat others.

Red Boy was too embarrassed to say that money was picked up. Hence, he shook his head and said, "One should be frugal when possible…"

The woman looked at Red Boy's tattered monk robes and felt a little emotional. She nodded and said, "Alright, but a cute and sensible child like you should be rewarded. I have a tiny strawberry cake here. Do you want it?"

Red Boy's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Really? Can you really give it to me?"

The woman smiled and said, "Of course, just take it as a bonus for the final sale for today. It's on the house."

The woman took out a small cake from the counter. It wasn't even the size of a palm-sized cake. There was a beautiful red strawberry on top of it. She handed it to Red Boy.

Red Boy pressed his palms together gratefully. "Amitabha. Thank you, Patron!"

"Take it." The woman handed it to Red Boy. Red Boy happily took it and took the money the woman had returned him.

What's the Situation?
