Chapter 10 - Training With Father

After A'Xin had a one to one conversation with Lan Yue about all the things which is going on their life, how Lan Yue have managed to help her to remove the burden which was placed on her heart. She really felt very grateful towards Lan Yue for helping for and doing a favour to her.

After having their heart talked out they talked about their childhood time which they had spent together with their families and had reminiscent about it .

A'Xin : "Lan Yue do you remember the time when we went to the fair with our families ?"

Lan Yue : "Yes, I remembered that time."

A'Xin : "Do you also remember that time when I wanted a very beautiful flower from the village garden. But I couldn't get that but then you have got that flower for me."

Lan Yue : "How can I forget that. It was at that time that I got a punishment from my mother for getting that flower."

A'Xin : "I really sorry Yue'er. If its not for me you wouldn't have gotten the punishment from aunty."

Lan Yue : "Don't be sorry about that. If its not for you then I wouldn't have the opportunity to learn very good lesson of my life from my mother."

Now the lesson that Lan Yue learnt from his mother was that,

"Yue'er always remember that, if you truly want someone's happiness it doesn't always mean that you have to do a wrong thing for it. If it is something that you are doing someone else's happiness but if it is really giving some other people trouble or if it harming others then it is very good. Always remember that the happiness which we are getting by harming others will one day become the most troubling thing for us."

She also told him, "Yue'er remember that if you are giving others trouble then one day you will also get the trouble for that, always remember your mother's words. And flowers also are very important as they also have their life which they get from the tree, so you should never give trouble to the trees. And most importantly never forget what I have told you never give trouble and harm others for your own happiness. Okay."

From that moment Lan Yue always remembered the lesson which his mother told him about but what he didn't knew that this lesson will have a significant impact on his future. And that thing is for latter chapters to come.

After having these conversations A'Xin also went to her home. By the time she was going to her home Lan Yue's father Lan Xiang came back to his home.

Seeing A'Xin in his home he asked her,

Lan Xiang : "A'Xin are you going to your home ?"

A'Xin : "Yes, uncle I am going to my home. It's already lunch time so I have to go and grab my lunch."

Lan Xiang : "Then you can join us in the lunch. We also haven't had our lunch."

A'Xin : "No uncle it's fine. I have already prepared lunch and I am also planning to visit my grandfather to see if he has taken his lunch or not and if he hasn't then we will have our lunch together."

Lan Xiang : "Okay I understand your concern. Then I will meet you later. Bye, and have a great time with your grandfather."

A'Xin : "Okay uncle then I will get going and have great day and take care of yourself."

After A'Xin left Zhen Lu saw her husband has returned so asked him about lunch. He said that he is hungry so Zhen Lu told him to call Lan Yue and then they will have lunch together.

Then Lan Xiang called Lan Yue for lunch and they had a very peaceful lunch together. After having Lan Yue went to his and Lan Xiang was helping his wife to clean the plates after lunch and after that they all rested for a while.

Then at late afternoon 4.30 pm Lan Xiang got up from his bed and changed his clothes to exercise clothes and went to Lan Yue's room and saw that his son is changing.

Then he knocked on the door of Lan Yue's room and said, "Yue'er get ready as it is already time for you have your everyday training with father."

After hearing his father Lan Yue said, "I am getting ready father. Just give me two minutes and I will be there."

Actually Lan Xiang was very proficient in martial arts and everyday from late afternoon 4.30 p.m. to evening 7 p.m. he would train his son in martial arts.

He had always told his son that, "You have to learn martial arts so that you will be able to protect all the people who are dearer to you and all the people who need your help as they can't protect themselves and if nobody can help in their need and if you can help them in their need to protect them then you should learn it."

Lan Xiang has always taught his son that martial arts should always be for defending people who are in trouble but it shouldn't be used mindlessly or for personal gain to harm and trouble others.

Lan Yue always remembered his fathers advice and learnt martial arts only for defensive purpose and not for attacking purpose.
