Liao Chen was extremely happy and excited, his face flushed red with emotion. He teasingly chided, "You silly child, why did you come here then? Ah, you mustn't harm my great-grandchild." He didn't resemble a monk at all.
Following that, he went to burn incense to the Bodhisattva, praying for Chen Afu to deliver a healthy child safely. Even better if it was a boy.
This was the first time Chen Afu saw Liao Chen so thrilled. She chuckled, "Grandmother, look at how eager you are. We still don't know whether it's true or not."
Liao Chen chuckled, "It's more than likely it is." Then addressing Chu Hanyan, he said, "You're already a big kid now, your mother can't carry you around."
Chu Hanyan didn't know why her grandmother and mother were so happy. After hearing her grandmother's words, she hesitated. She didn't express any agreement or disagreement, merely pouting.
