In this short scene, we learn that Ching-Liang is not Ching-Lung's father. He is, in fact, Ching-Lin's step-uncle. He has come to celebrate his son's victory in the recent lottery, and he wants to make sure that the young man is happy. He tells the audience that he used to have a part-time job making desserts in a dessert shop when he was in college, and that he has always wanted to own his own dessert shop. He explains that his parents did not want him to get married so soon, but that they just wanted him to marry as soon as he could. He says that if he opened his own store, there would be no one else to look after him, because there wouldn't be enough money to support his family. He also says that family is important, but you cannot sacrifice it for your family.
