Jinliu Village.
Nearing dusk, a father and son walked slowly along the village path.
"Is something on your mind?"
Shen Yuan turned back, looking at his preoccupied second son, and asked.
Shen Wenyan raised his head, forced a smile, and shook his head.
"Did you upset the Master again today?"
"Ah Die, the Master said... after the summer harvest, he wants to take me on a study tour."
After contemplating for a long time, Shen Wenyan finally spoke his mind.
"A study tour?"
"That's a good thing."
"Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. You have grown up; it's time for you to see the world with the Master."
Shen Yuan smiled gently to console him.
But Shen Wenyan became anxious after hearing this and hurriedly caught up to say:
"Before my eldest brother left, he asked me to take good care of you and Mother at home."
"The Saint said, 'While parents are alive, do not travel too far.' I worry about you and Mother."
