Home had a very warm feeling.
Traveling Buddha's grandfather, mother, and little sister surrounded him, constantly asking him about how he had lived over these last few years, and if anything new had happened in his life. Small Buddha had learned how to play the zither, so her mother encouraged her to play a tune, and everyone clapped in praise.
Although Traveling Buddha's family treated Xia Fan well, attempting to include him in the conversation by asking him a question from time to time, they still weren't Xia Fan's family, so a faint sense of distance began to emerge.
Using the excuse of seeing the scenery, Xia Fan headed to the nearby beach. Facing the ocean, he listened to the waves and watched as the silvery moonlight illuminated the seas.
The affectionate scene in Traveling Buddha's home made Xia Fan reminiscence his own family.
