Chapter 197: The key lies in the mother-in-law
The Materia Medica Temple has a lot of business projects, or it is not good to say so, but the monks of Benben are indeed operating the temple as a company - the Materia Medica Temple provides short-term practice programs such as "Azi Meditation View", "Sketch Paper", "Copying Sutras", "Learning the Dharma", etc., as well as long-term teaching classes such as painting and calligraphy, and the temple is also equipped with a cafΓ©, tea room, and accommodation and catering.
Even, they also have a special acupuncturist and physician, regularly carry out acupuncture, moxibustion and other services, and by the way, they also sell health care drugs, which is not ordinary active - it is like a large health base, there is a feeling of professional spa
There is no shortage of customers, and it is said that eighty percent of the people are followers of the temple (mixed faith, these people also enter the shrine and church), and they often run to the temple, thinking that if the temple is well run, the income must be very considerable.
The three daughters of Yamagami Aiko were very interested in participating in this so-called "practice", and they thought that they were just playing, and when Chihara and Hakuba found them, they immediately went to join in the fun.
The first thing Hakuma Ningzi chose was the "Ah Zi Meditation View", which was held in the "Yama Fudo Hall" of the Honcao Temple, where a special teacher instructed them on how to gaze at the Sanskrit character "A" and enter a meditative state, which is said to be able to unite the breath, the self, and the universe.
Chihara Rin thought it was, but Hakuma Ninko seemed to be very interested in this, looking at the banner, her breathing slowly eased.
Before the second of them, the Holy Son was a good child, and he sat there honestly and motionless, but the mountain god Aiko and Nishino Kirisha obviously couldn't sit still, and they only lasted for more than ten minutes, and the mountain god Aiko went to see Zhou Gong, and his head was dozing off little by little, and Nishino Kishiko seemed to have nails on his buttocks, and he began to twist around.
People with flexible minds can't sit still, and her mind is obviously extraordinarily active.
Chihara Rin couldn't sit still, he wasn't the kind of person who could be idle, but his restlessness was quickly felt by Hakuma Ningzi, who directly held one of his hands and said softly: "Chihara-kun, you have been tense, you need to be quiet...... Come, relax, and keep up with the rhythm of my breathing. β
Hakuma Ningzi's little hands were very cold, and it was very comfortable to be held by her, and Chihara Rin obediently loosened his elastic and tight shoulders, slumped his waist slightly, closed his eyelids, and looked at the ink on the banner dimly, and began to empty his head, no longer thinking about anything, and finally there was only one thought left - it seems that Jobs often meditated, and it turns out that this thing is really useful.
Gradually, he didn't even have this thought, his breathing eased with Bai Ma Ningzi's voice, and a heavy feeling of tiredness rose from the bottom of his heart, and then slowly dissipated......
At this moment, there is no work, no pursuit, no pressure, no need to dwell on ratings, no need to worry about failure will shake your peers, only pure yourself.
It's really comfortable, there's a sense of tranquility, how I haven't discovered this method before
He enjoyed this moment very much, hoping that it could be longer, but soon felt someone massaging his shoulder and neck, tilted his head slightly, and found that it was Bai Ma Ningzi.
He felt very comfortable and enjoyed it quietly for a while, and then shook his shoulders when he was worried that Bai Ma Ningzi was tired. Bai Ma Ningzi also stopped his hand and laughed quietly: "Qianyuan-kun, your shoulders are very stiff, this is not healthy. β
"I feel so much better now. "Rin Chihara only felt refreshed, a feeling similar to drinking energy potions, but that was only for the body, and this one was more comprehensive.
He said sincerely: "Thank you, thank you for your hard work." β
He was sure that Bai Ma Ningzi would ask him to come, he was really just worried about him and wanted him to relax, and Bai Ma Ningzi smiled: "No need to say thank you, haven't you also been sponsoring my trip"
"That's what you get paid for your work. β
"Your apartment is cleaned in less than two days, I've been there, and you seem to have only been back two or three times since my last visit, with only a change of clothes. Aiko-chan also complained to me that there was no need to go once every two days. Bai Ma Ningzi said in a low voice: "You want me to be a little easier, I know." β
Chihara Rin said helplessly: "This is that you think too much, I just want the house to be clean, because I don't know when I will go back." β
Now the expenditure of forty or fifty thousand yen a month doesn't matter to him at all, if he can, he wants to raise the salary for Bai Ma Ningzi, let her hurry up and finish the book, and quickly be honest after completing her dream, but he was afraid of hurting his feelings, so he didn't dare.
He didn't want to discuss this with Hakuma Ningzi, so he immediately changed the topic and asked instead, "What's next?"
He's a little interested in participating in this kind of event now. Don't say it, it's good for high-stress relaxation in this temple, no wonder business is very good.
Bai Ma Ningzi didn't want to fight with him for this, so he smiled gently at his words: "How about copying the scriptures?"
Mountain god Aiko and Nishino Kisa have long ended their meditations, they don't have any pressure at all, meditation is useless to them, and when they hear that they are going to copy the scriptures, it feels similar to meditation, it's not fun at all, they glanced at each other, and they were a little discouraged, but they were embarrassed to say that they didn't want to go at this time, so they could only follow behind.
They changed places, it was a large hall, quiet like a library, and many people were immersed in copying a small case.
Bai Ma Ningzi was familiar with the scriptures, paper, pens, and inkstones for everyone, and he received a statue of Guanyin and a thin piece of drawing paper to prepare for white drawing.
Rin Chihara looked at her things and asked strangely, "Why are we different?"
Bai Ma Ningzi turned his head and smiled: "You need to be quiet, I don't need to ...... This is a hand-painted statue of Kannon by the monk Mudu, who was a very famous painter during the shogunate period, and the original copy is kept in the Kumoto Temple, and I have wanted to copy it for a long time - this is a photocopy, but because the Kuboto Temple has the real work, their photocopy is the best. β
Then she lowered her voice again and snickered: "The practice of 'sketching white on paper' in the Materia Medica Temple is very famous, and it all depends on the fame of the authentic works of the Mudu monk, and my father has always been very envious. β
"What is the practice of describing whiteness" Rin Chihara is not interested in temple management at all, only a little interested in this kind of activity.
"It is to draw the Buddha statue in vain, draw it patiently one stroke at a time, so that the Buddha appears in front of his eyes, and when he sees the Buddha, he sees me, a kind of practice that slowly finds his true self, but in order to take care of ordinary people, the temple usually uses translucent paper, so that the people who participate in the practice can cover the depiction. β
Rin Chihara was tempted when he heard this, and couldn't help but say, "I'll try it too"
Bai Ma Ningzi looked at him strangely: "Didn't you always know what you wanted, you want to make achievements in your work, and get me, and have been working hard for this, so what doubts do you have about your true self?"
Chihara Rin looked at Hakuma Ningzi speechlessly, and Hakuma Ningzi smiled at him: "Isn't it too direct?"
"It's to get your feelings. Rin Chihara emphasized, "I'm not a pervert!"
He really isn't coveting Bai Ma Ningzi's body, the conscience of heaven and earth, he just thinks that Bai Ma Ningzi is very suitable for him - bullshit love, he doesn't believe that, he only believes in his own judgment, he wants to find the most suitable wife for him!
"To get my affection is to get me, it's the same. Bai Ma Ningzi liked to see the tangled expression on his face, and wanted to touch his eyebrows, but this was not the place to laugh, and immediately pointed to the brush: "It's good for you to copy the scriptures, you need this." β
Rin Chihara had nothing to say, so he immediately flipped through the scripture book, "Diamond Sutra", thirty-two chapters, about 5,000 Chinese characters, and it took about an hour and a half. He had a number in his heart, and immediately spread out the paper and wrote with a pen, but soon Bai Ma Ningzi gently held his hand, shook his head and said: "Qianyuan-kun, no one asks you to finish writing, nor does it give you a quota, and no one asks you to write well...... You just have to write, stroke by stroke. β
After a pause, she pointed to the line of "subduing its heart" and said strangely: "The word order here is reversed, is the scripture printed wrong?"
Rin Chihara read it softly, and said equally strangely: "No, the meaning is right." β
Bai Ma Ningzi tilted his head slightly to look at him, endured for a while and smiled: "You can really read...... It's strange that you haven't told me before that you're proficient in Sinology. You've told me a lot of things, not even your ex-girlfriend, but you haven't told me about itβit's something to be proud of, but you've never mentioned it, it's really weird!"
Rin Chihara remained silent and laughed in a low voice: "I am a modest and low-key person, and besides, I am a screenwriter and a learned person!"
Bai Ma Ningzi thought for a while, and always felt that although this matter was inconspicuous, there must be some problems in it, but no matter how smart she was, she couldn't guess the reason, and finally felt as if she was too careful, and her expression became gentle: "Qianyuan-kun is indeed a rare erudite person, and he should have suffered a lot before......"
"It's over, it's over. Rin Chihara smiled: "I mainly rely on my natural intelligence, and I didn't suffer much. β
Bai Ma Ningzi was amused by his "modesty", but immediately covered his mouth, got back to the point, and said seriously: "Qianyuanjun, copying the scriptures and copying the Chinese version is because ordinary people can't read it, so they can only copy it, so you can empty your mind, please forget the meaning of the scriptures, just copy it." β
Rin Chihara understands it, and it is the same principle as chopping wood, working mechanically to seek peace of mind. He nodded, honestly, and began to copy mechanically stroke by stroke, and slowly there were only one horizontal stroke and one stroke in his eyes, and he really found a feeling - he usually works, and he has a lot of things to deal with, and it is indeed quite comfortable to suddenly do this kind of mechanical and simple work.
He copied for a while, and rarely didn't plan the progress of the work, which he usually didn't do. He waited until his wrist was a little sore, then stopped, turned his head to look at Bai Ma Ningzi, and found that she had also copied most of the Guanyin statue, and Bai Ma Ningzi noticed it, and asked with a low smile: "How do you feel?"
"It's good, I do feel a lot less stressed. "Chihara Rin told the truth, he also had a sense of irritability in the previous continuous work, but he meditated and copied scriptures, and after such a set of tosses, the irritability almost disappeared - Hakuma Ningzi is at least a good friend, she really knows how to think about others.
Bai Ma Ningzi showed a happy smile on his face, and became a little squint again, took the scriptures he copied and looked at them carefully, and praised: "Your words are very beautiful, very atmospheric, you say that words are like people, Qianyuan-kun is really an upright person...... My father will be very fond of you, his words are similar to yours, you are very similar. β
"He likes me, and I won't be a monk. Chihara Rin first said the ugly words, and then said thoughtfully: "I often hear you praise your father, but I rarely hear you talk about your mother, don't you have a good relationship?"
Bai Ma Ningzi smiled, did not deny it, and suddenly it became clear to Qianyuan Rin, it turned out that he wanted to marry Bai Ma Ningzi, his father-in-law was not the key, but his mother-in-law was!
