During the funeral, all the people of the Ji family naturally ate vegetarian meals. Ji Hui was busy all day, and when the servant came to invite him to dinner, he suddenly remembered a certain master who used bread to satisfy his hunger.

"Let's withdraw for dinner!" Ji Hui waved off the maid and said to the bodyguard No. 3: "Go outside to buy some vegetarian ingredients, and the money will not go to the Ji family's general account." ”

"Okay. Bodyguard No. 3 stood tall and promised, "Don't worry, sir, it's just a little bit of ingredients, and I'll just pay for it myself." ”

"That's very good. Ji Hui said, "That's what Master Karma decided during this period. As he spoke, he waved his hand, signaling that he had wanted to be courteous but had inexplicably lost a sum of money, and the sluggish bodyguard No. 3 could go out.

At the end of the day's chanting, karma asked people to add incense and candles, and then ordered to rest and have dinner first.

He walked out of the mourning hall and came to the lounge next to him, picked up his backpack and prepared to take out a cake, when he suddenly raised his head and looked at Ji Huiji, who was leaning on the door at some point.

"Master Ji Shi has something to order?"

"Don't dare to do it. Ji Hui said, "Master, is this going to be dinner?"

"Yes!" Karma was very generous, picked up a cake and handed it to him, "Can Master Ji Shi also have some?"

"Thank you!" Ji Hui took a bite of the cake and said, "Master is not busy with the meal first, I still have something to ask for." ”

Yin Yuan looked dazed, although he didn't know what kind of things he couldn't eat, he still followed Ji Hui with his backpack.

Ji Hui was holding a cake in his hand, and in the eyes of the servants looking at the cake in disbelief, he occasionally took a bite in the interval between talking to karma, which can be said to be very down-to-earth.

Back at the residence of the head of the family, Yin Yuan looked at the steaming fast on the table, and waited for Ji Hui to have other instructions before he opened his mouth and wondered: "This is what Ji Shi mainly asked the poor monk to do?"

"Yes, yes. Ji Hui sat down at the table and began to serve a meal for the two of them, "Ji Mou is cooking for the first time, and he doesn't dare to show his ugliness in front of others, so he has to bother the karma master to come and try it, isn't this helpful?"

After thinking about it, he was very embarrassed and said, "Having said that, the poor monk has already said ......."

"The master can rest assured that the chefs of this meal are all from the hands of someone in Ji, which does not violate the original intention of the master. Ji Hui said, "Besides, this meal is due to friendship, since Ji has taken the initiative, spent energy, and spent time, if the master still refuses, won't it be wasted?"

The karma was difficult but he compromised in an instant, and the most important thing is that he was reluctant to waste.

After taking a bite of the dish, he looked up in shock, "Is this really the first time Master Ji has cooked a fried dish?"

"How?" Ji Hui asked with a smile, "According to the recipe, it shouldn't be too unpleasant, right?"

"It's not unpalatable. "The karma is very upright," it was delicious. ”

"That's good. Ji Hui said, "Although the cake you brought tastes very good, there are still several busy days to be busy, and I am afraid that I will not be able to supply my strength if I eat it all the time." ”

After finishing the meal, karma rubbed his stomach with some satisfaction, and after thinking about it, he said seriously: "There is a labor season donor to bother, but the poor monk thinks that it is good to eat bread all the time, and it is very good to have food, so why ask for more." And you're so busy. ”

"It's not troublesome, but if you don't want to go......," Ji Hui thought for a while, "Just thank you for taking me to the battlefield before, if you still don't think it's enough, why don't you help me do my daily life?" After all, you also said that I am still quite busy every day." ”

When I heard it, I thought about it and didn't think there was anything wrong, you came and went, the equivalent exchange, it was very fair, and I simply agreed.

The courtyard of the Ji family is very quiet, although it is in the middle of the city, the yard is very large. Rockery pavilions, bamboo bush flower beds, look up to see the starlight and moonlight, ears can hear the call of grasshoppers, the sound of frogs by the pond. A perfect escape from the neon flashes and nighttime lights in the city.

A wooden rocking chair was placed in the gazebo, and at this time the rocking chair swayed gently and made a slight squeak. As soon as Meng Po sat on it, her black clothes almost melted into the night.

On the bamboo building not far from the pavilion, Yuan An sat in front of the bamboo window, his eyes falling on the window.

"The Ji family can have today's situation, and the third grandfather has contributed a lot. Ji Hui leaned on the armrest of the circle chair and said idly, "The most talked about thing about the third grandfather is that he has never married in his life, and there is not even an ambiguous girl by his side. ”

However, such a self-disciplined person who hates to directly green the ancient Buddha has been shuttled in the impetuousness of the lights under the shadow of the family when he was young, and he has also wandered in the gentle township, forgetting the ambitions he once made.

Ji Hui said: "It is rumored in the clan that the third grandfather unilaterally likes a girl, and he has never denied it. ”

For this relationship, Ji Sanye has never hyped it up, nor has he concealed it, he has always used his own way to protect this love that belongs to him alone.

"The third grandfather never thought about bothering in his life, until a few days ago, he said that his life limit had come, and his last wish before dying was to see him again, and I couldn't refuse. Ji Hui said, "Yuan An, I hope it didn't bother!"

"My aunt's life is too long. Yuan An still looked out the window, and her voice didn't make the slightest wave, "So every person or thing that appears with kindness in her life should be thanked!"

Just thanks.

The next day, the news of the death of the third old lady of the Ji family had spread, and people who were closer to the Ji family began to come. Because of the need to do things first, before the day of the official white affairs, only some representative people in the family were sent.

The Song family and the Ji family have always been good friends, and naturally they are no exception, Song Chenyi is the most promising figure among the young people of the Song family's generation, and in addition to various relationships with the Ji family, it is the best choice.

At breakfast, Ji's mother specially mentioned this matter, saying that Song Chenyi's plane arrived at noon and wanted Ji Hui to pick it up.

"Mother. Ji Hui put down the dishes and chopsticks, took the hot towel and wiped his hands, "If such a thing also requires me to go in person, do you think too low about the status of the head of the Ji family?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ji Mu said dissatisfied, "You know I didn't mean that. ”

Ji Hui said: "That's what you asked me to do, mother. ”

Ji's mother frowned and said, "Ah Ji, then you are the head of the Ji family, and you care about the status of the head of the family when you cook for a monk with your own hands?"

"These are two different things. Ji Hui said, "Master Karma is my friend, and I think I should still have such freedom. ”

"The dressing coat is still your fiancée. Ji Mu was a little excited, "This is the respect she deserves." ”

"Fiancée?" Ji Hui's face was slightly gloomy, "Mother, I think I need an explanation. ”

"I ......" Ji Mu was speechless for a while.

Ji Hui said: "Since my mother didn't say it, then I can say it again very clearly now, I have nothing to do with Miss Song, it can't be there now or in the future, and I will not mention it again in the future, otherwise I don't mind clarifying this matter in another way." ”

"Aji. Ji Mu was anxious, "You know that this is something that must exist." ”

"Nothing is a must. Ji Hui said, "If my mother is insistent, I think it is necessary to take some measures to eliminate unnecessary troubles in the future." ”

"You!" Ji Mu hated, "Ah Ji, do you have to be like this?"

"Mother, you're pushing me. Ji Hui got up to leave, and when he walked to the door, he stopped and said, "By the way, karma is the abbot of Congyun Temple, and he can personally come to do a ritual for the Ji family, speaking of which, it is the Ji family who has climbed him." ”

Perhaps in the eyes of the world, Congyun Temple is just a temple far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, where incense is flourishing and Buddhism is boundless. However, in the eyes of insiders in the other world, there is an existence no less than the Holy Gate of the Nine Xuan Sect, with its long history and profound magic and spiritual power, it has always been a mysterious existence that others can only look up to.

And the abbot of such a temple, personally going to do a ritual for people, no matter what the status of the other party is, as Ji Hui said, that is Gao Pan!

Ji Mu was stunned for a moment, and wanted to say something more, but remembering the karma and identity and the inappropriateness of her words, she finally didn't speak again.

After Song Chenyi came over, he first went to the mourning hall to put incense on the deceased, and when he came out, he happened to see Ji Hui writing something on his mobile phone after he finished telling things.

"Brother Ji Hui. Song Chenyi stepped forward with joy, "Long time no see, how are you doing?"

Ji Hui said: "Thank you Miss Song for your concern, Ji is very good." ”

"It's me who should thank you. Song Chenyi lowered his head and whispered, and joy almost overflowed his eyes.

"What?"

Song Chenyi said: "Now is the time to employ people, you still let No. 4 pick me up, thank you!"

"You're thanking the wrong person. Ji Hui didn't raise his head, "I didn't let you go." ”

Seeing this, bodyguard No. 4 hurriedly stepped forward and said cautiously: "Miss Song, it was the old lady who asked me to pick you up." ”

"That's right. Song Chenyi's face was gloomy, but for a moment, he immediately looked dignified and amiable again, "I'll go and thank my aunt later, but thank you Brother Ji Hui the same before." ”

"It's not the same. Ji Hui looked at the time and said, "Miss Song, please take care of yourself, I have to say goodbye in advance." ”

Song Chenyi pursed her lips, still smiling and said, "Okay, Brother Ji Hui, go get busy, I'll go see my aunt first." ”

At dinner, Ji's mother specially asked Ji Hui to come and invite Ji Hui to dine together. Ji Hui didn't react much when he heard it, he knew what Ji Mu meant, since she was unwilling to give up, then it was the same whether he went or not.

Put the finished vegetarian food into the insulated lunch box and let the bodyguard No. 3 send it to karma, and Ji Hui went to Ji's mother's residence.

Seeing Song Chenyi at the dinner table was expected, but let Song Chenyi talk with a smile and hint in every way, Ji Hui was not moved at all, did not eat more than a mouthful of food or drink a mouthful of soup, just like usual.

It wasn't until Song Chenyi left with tears in her eyes and embarrassment on her face that Ji's mother said helplessly:

"Ah Ji, it's rare for Miss Song to come here, so you can go out for a walk with her, just accompany your friends to do your landlord's friendship. ”
