128 hairpins
Zhenshu sat on the floor dumbfounded, just like when she found the dark gray silver silk robe in Yu Yichen's bedroom that day, and couldn't stand up for a long time.
It turned out that when she kept asking about the map of the gold mine, it kept curling in her hair until she finally threw it back to him. Even if she says, "I don't want you anymore."
He still grabbed her hand and asked her to take the hairpin.
He said, "This is the most precious thing I have ever given you, heavier than my heart, and you must wear it even if you do not want to marry me." ”
He also said, "Even if you do not want to marry me, you must wear this hairpin, and you promised me that you will not take it off when you put it on." ”
In the end, when she became pregnant, and he was determined to back up the dowry for her, the thick silver ticket and the deed were still on the hairpin. This inconspicuous ebony hairpin turned out to be his most important thing, heavier than his sincerity and his love.
He had always been willing to give it to her and wanted her to wear it.
Zhenshu sat with the hairpin in his hand for a long time, and only after dark did he feed Du Xiaoyu and coax him to bed.
She took the hairpin and brought it to Liangzhou, and after about two years, she called Du Xiaoyu from there. This time, instead of using it as a teether, he used it as a hoe to dig in the garden all day. Zhenshu was afraid that he would break the hairpin or let Du Yu discover the secret, so he thought about it and wanted to donate it to the temple.
With this in mind, Zhenshu called a local mother who was working in the kitchen and asked, "Is there a temple in Liangzhou City where incense is strong?" ”
The old mother covered her mouth and smiled: "The lady doesn't know? Since General Dadu came, the Taoist priests and monks of the You Fang have to report at the gate of the city when they go out of the city and enter the city, and they are not allowed to walk around and move around. There was originally a White Pagoda Temple in the city, and he was also asked to move it out of the city. ”
Zhenshu was a little surprised, and said in his heart that Du Yu was doing something about some monks. So he asked, "If they will make a living and not let them go into the city, where will they make a living?" ”
The old mother said: "I heard that General Du himself pasted silver, and he will send them at the gate of the city." ”
Because after arriving in Liangzhou, she was separated from Du Yu and Dou Mingluan to live alone, after Du Yu returned to the house in the evening, Zhenshu chased him to his house despite the cold face of Dou Mingluan, who had a big belly, Du Yu was slightly irritable, but also patiently explained: "Monks and Taoists are always not good, good men don't do anything, go to ask for something useless, I am very tired of them, so I don't let them into the city, but also out of sight and out of mind." ”
Zhenshu said: "I'm afraid that you have read too many useless erotic picture books, and you always think that men are like you, when you see a woman, you can't wait for two invisible hands to peel off the woman's clothes and see a fine light." That monk and Taoist priest also have bad things, always individually, most of them are also serious monks, you live with your own heart, it is really hateful. ”
Du Yu was most afraid that Zhenshu would talk about this, and he was also afraid that Dou Mingluan would hear that the two of them were about to have another good anger, so he hurriedly defended and said: "Don't talk nonsense, I am the most serious person." ”
Zhenshu said: "Seriously, I want to find a temple to go to the pillar incense, I want you to take advantage of this to accompany the child out to play for a day, if you are tired of the monk and Taoist priest do not want to go, I will take Xiaoyu with me." ”
Although Du Yu and Zhenshu have become strangers, the child is still his own, since he arrived in Liangzhou, on the one hand, Dou Mingluan is jealous all day long, and Zhenshu does not like to call him to his own house, he always rarely sees a small fish, this time it is rare that she is willing to ask him to take the child out together, and she is naturally very happy in her heart, and she is busy saying: "Don't get bored, I love to talk about Buddhism with the old bald donkeys, if you don't dislike it, let's go together." ”
Baita Temple has to travel more than ten miles to Liangzhou City. On the fifteenth day, Du Yuzhenshu took a small fish, put together and walked on foot with a family wearing Qingqing Reduction and Reduction, out of the city and the endless military fields are all millet and millet that are about to ripen, along both sides of the road are high and straight into the clouds, the water is murmuring in the ditch that irrigates the tuntian under the tree, and occasionally the loach swims by, so that the small fish can't help but squat down to fish, and he has not walked half the way, and the new clothes he changed in the morning are all wet, and even his shoes are soaked.
Du Yu couldn't bear it, picked it up, carried it on his shoulder, slapped his son's buttocks twice, and said: "Your mother doesn't know how to do needlework, how many holes have been poked on your hands for these shoes, you don't know how to cherish them." ”
Du Xiaoyuren is a big ghost, and he cried heartbreakingly: "You let me down, you have a family and a wife, you don't want us anymore, what do you care about me?" I don't love you. ”
Du Yu grabbed his son's buttocks with both hands and said: "I'm your father, if you don't love me, I can beat you, and if you waste her things, you should be beaten." ”
Zhenshu followed behind and looked up at his son and smiled slightly, although he couldn't bear it, he also knew that this child had to be strictly taught by his father to manage it well.
Seeing that the white pagoda of the White Pagoda Temple was close in front of him, Zhenshu had to make excuses with Du Yu. There was a pavilion on the side of the road to rest and take advantage of the coolness, she went in and sat under the pretext of a sore foot, took out the hairpin and handed it to Du Yu and said: "Yu Yichen's death was all caused by me alone, although I am guilty of a lot of sin, there is nowhere to redeem it." This is the only point I have thought about these years, recently children always like to take out to play, I am afraid that the small fish will damage him, you will bring it to the temple today, or offer it to the Buddha, if there is no taboo, please ask the abbot of the temple to burn in front of the Buddha. ”
Du Yu naturally knew this hairpin, when he was on duty in the Inspectorate, no matter what outfit Yu Yichen changed, he always wore this hairpin on his head. When he returned home from the canal, Zhenshu had this hairpin on his head, but he later pulled it down and hid it. Who knew that later the little fish turned out.
When he saw that Zhenshu was going to entrust this thing to the Buddha, he secretly rejoiced in his heart: I'm afraid that she will really forget the eunuch from now on, and she is willing to come back and live a good life with me!
He pulled the little fish and walked forward, and saw from a distance that Zhenshu was still sitting in the pavilion, the wind blowing on her face was still the same as when he was tempted, and his heart was full of joy, and he had already begun to miss it before he had gone far, and he was anxious to return to her as soon as possible, and he took his son on his shoulders and ran wildly on the spacious road where the poplars stood on both sides.
Zhenshu sat in the pavilion and pursed his lips and smiled as they walked away, until they turned into the side of the road of the White Pagoda Temple, and their faces were gloomy for an instant, and they still put their hands on the pergola and looked at them from afar.
Du Yu took Xiaoyu to the temple, worshiped incense in the main hall, and burned incense everywhere, and then asked the monk who struck the chime: "Master, can the presiding abbot?" ”
The one who struck the chime was a fat monk, with a smile on his face, and nodded: "Yes." ”
Du Yu took out the hairpin from his bosom and showed him: "This is a little thing from my lady's family, and now I have the heart to enshrine it in front of the Buddha, or if there is no taboo, burn it here, do you see if you can preside over the abbot?" ”
The fat monk took the hairpin and looked at it for a long time, and said with a smile: "The poor monk looks at the officials a little familiarly, but General Du in our Liangzhou City? ”
Du Yu clenched his fists and bowed: "It's down." ”
The fat monk couldn't laugh himself, stretched out his hand and asked: "You have been offering our White Temple Pagoda for a while, the presiding abbot often recites your name, and has been telling the poor monk, if you see the general when you know the guest, you must be kept, he has something to talk to you." ”
Du Yu said: "My lady is still waiting outside the temple, please hurry up." ”
The fat monk said: "Inevitably, inevitably!" ”
Du Yu answered, asked him to take him to the side hall and sit down, and found a small novice to answer, and ran away by himself.
Xiao Yu was a naughty child, and he was not afraid to see that there was only a little novice standing there, so he ran outside at some point, and held the wooden fish in front of the Bodhisattva statue in his arms and knocked on it. Du Yu couldn't stop killing the chicken, he went out and snatched it from his hand, who knew that he climbed to the Bodhisattva statue to pick the flowers that were enshrined. Du Yu had no choice but to put his hands back into the inner room, still sitting with his nose and heart.
It is rare for him and Zhenshu to get along so harmoniously today, and he is anxious about Zhenshu and so on, and he is anxious why the host has not come, and he is not paying attention to Xiaoyu and does not know where he is. He had to go out with this little novice out of the outer room, one hall after another, one courtyard after another, and finally found him running to the lotus release pond where he had just entered the temple, and was taking off a shoe, using it as a container to fish there.
Du Yu slapped his buttocks twice, and returned to the inner room of the side hall to wait for the abbot in the cry and scolding of Xiaoyu. After waiting like this for about half an hour, when I was really anxious to get up and want to leave, the fat monk from before brought a little novice and came in with a table of fasting and bowed: "It's really a sin and a sin, let General Du wait for a long time." It will take a long time for the abbot to talk with the guests, and the poor monk has prepared a table for you and the little boy to enjoy, okay? ”
People say that they don't hit smiling people. The fat monk smiled very happily, and blocked the door with a table of fasting rice, Du Yu frowned and said: "My lady is still waiting outside, this fasting meal is not needed, since the host is flawless, Du will visit another day." ”
The fat monk stopped Du Yu and said: "It's just a bowl of rice, which is also a little respect for the poor monks' kindness to General Du in the past two years, please use it before leaving." ”
Du Yu couldn't, so he had to sit back and eat the bowl.
After all, Xiaoyu is a child, and he doesn't like to eat things like vegetarian chicken and mushrooms, and he has a bowl full of rice, so he took chopsticks to make things. Du Yu took a bowl of rice in three or two bites, and hurriedly brought it over and said, "Hurry up and open your mouth, I'll feed you." ”
Xiaoyu also knew that her mother could not be rescued from a distance at this time, and she wanted to listen to her father's words, so she opened her mouth and ate a few bites and shook her head: "I won't eat it." ”
Du Yu still glared at him with the eyes of killing chickens: "If you don't eat, be careful, I'll go out and spank you." ”
Xiao Yu saw the fat monk standing by the door smiling, and knew that his father didn't dare to beat himself in front of the fat monk, so he grinned and cried: "Don't eat." ”
Du Yu coaxed him to eat half a bowl of rice, and he planed the remaining half bowl, got up and clasped his hands and said, "Don't leave it here, come back to visit another day." ”
After that, Xiaoyu ran wildly on his shoulders and went back to find the book of chastity.
