After this incident, Zhao Yue began to search for his own dream.
However, he was indecisive. One moment he would say he wanted to study and become a high-ranking official, and the next he would declare his ambition to be a great poet and author.
Zhao Zhitong educated him, explaining that a dream isn't just lip service or something that changes daily. It's about choosing a goal and then diligently working towards it.
Worried he wouldn't understand, Zhao Zhitong offered examples: "Look at Qiao Jiaojiao, for instance. She wants to be a judge, so she diligently reads the books her father left her. I want to be a physician, so I'm learning medicine from Grandfather. Lanlan wants to be like Master Lu Ban, so she improves her craftsmanship every day.
You see, everything we do is aimed at achieving our dreams; it's not just talk, you know."
