Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, it's the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month. Counting the days, it has been almost half a year since I got married, and this will be the first Spring Festival I have spent without my parents. I don't know if on Chinese New Year's Eve, Ama Eniang will miss themselves as much as they miss them.

Yu Rui came back very early, and he excitedly told her that things were all over, and he would stay with her for the past few days of the Chinese New Year. Ning Xi remembered what she had listened to a few days ago, so she just smiled and didn't say anything.

Thinking of tomorrow's arrangement, Ning Xi prepared to go to bed early, and told Nian'er to wake her up early tomorrow. Yu Rui was a little surprised, so he asked, "Is there anything tomorrow?" ”

"I heard that on the eve of Chinese New Year's Eve, I went to the Buddhist temple early to ask for a talisman to keep my parents safe." Ning Xi said while taking off his shoes, "This morning, I specially asked Chang Fujin for leave, went to ask the elders in the house, and by the way, also asked for one for my Ama Eniang." ”

"Well," Yu Rui pondered, "and what temple are you going to go to?" ”

"Fayuan Temple is the closest to here," Ning Xi said, "It's just that there should be a lot of people praying for blessings tomorrow, so you have to go early." ”

"Then I'll go with you tomorrow." Yu Rui said, "You just finished your work, you should have a good rest." Ning Xi smiled slightly, "It's okay for me to go alone, take Nian'er with me, and the two guards of Changsheng Lin Yuan, it should be no problem." ”

"I'll be able to get up tomorrow," Yu Rui said, "and if I get up, I'll go over and take my place first." I heard that at the end of the year, there will be a long queue at the entrance of the temple. That team must be lined up in person as a junior to have an effect, and it must not be done for the next generation. ”

"Don't toss yourself," Ning Xi persuaded, "It's hard to sleep a little longer, it's getting late this winter, I'll just go." ”

"Alright then, I'll get some more sleep." Yu Rui said on his lips, but he had another plan in his heart.

The next morning, Ning Xi opened her eyes, and it was already dawn. She remembered that she was going to the temple, and when she saw that half of Yu Rui's bed was empty, she shouted out the door: "Nian'er, Nian'er!" ”

"Gege, you're awake." Nian'er walked in with a basin of water.

"Didn't you tell you to wake me up sooner? What time is it? "Ning Xi is a little unhappy.

"Hui Gege, it's the hour." Nian'er dressed Ning Xi, "It was the third young master who ordered not to wake up Gege." The third young master went out of the city when he was in Yin. ”

"Yinshi? So early? Ning Xi said in surprise, "Then he didn't sleep long at all." ”

"Gege, the meal is ready......

"It's so late, where can I have time to eat." Ning Xi snatched the robe from Nian'er's hand and put it on herself, "You ask them to pick up some vegetarian food, and I'll go to Fayuan Temple to send it to the third young master in a while." ”

"Yes, Gege." Nian'er trotted out.

The entrance of Fayuan Temple.

Ning Xi stood beside Yu Rui, looking at the still long line in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh. Yu Rui smiled, took the food box in Ning Xi's hand and said, "Thanks to my early arrival, looking at the current situation, it should be possible to line up before noon." If it were you, I'm afraid it would be difficult. ”

"Wake up so early, are you sleepy now? Why did a person come out without even bringing a person? Ning Xi looked around, a little worried.

"I couldn't sleep since I lay down last night." Yu Rui smiled, "I don't dare to move, for fear of waking you up." I couldn't lie down for a long time, so I got up to see that Ah Hao and their house lights hadn't been turned on yet, so they came over alone. ”

"I really don't want you to be like this." Ning Xi lowered his head and said.

"What's that," Yu Ruiman said nonchalantly, "Your elders are my elders, and the effect of you and I will be the same." After speaking, he took Ning Xi's hand and said, "Talk to me for a while, and you won't feel that the team is long." ”

Ning Xi nodded.

Everything went more smoothly than expected, and before noon, the two begged for a peace charm. Seeing that it was still early, they decided to wander around. The subordinates who came with him walked around by themselves, Ning Xi and Yu Rui added sesame oil money, worshiped the Buddha, and hung a purse with a note written on the wishing tree.

The backyard of the temple is also full of people, and although the grass and trees are withering in the harsh winter, the rows of statues in the middle of the courtyard still attract the attention of many people. Lin Yuan looked in front of each statue, stopped in front of a one-person-tall bronze statue, looked at it carefully for a while, then pulled Chang Sheng, who was facing away from him, and said, "Hey, Ah Sheng, do you think this portrait doesn't look like you?" ”

Chang Sheng glanced in the direction of his finger, shrugged his shoulders and said, "What are you kidding, where is it like me." ”

"Isn't it like?" Lin Yuan shook his head and muttered to himself. He turned his head and saw Nian'er admiring another row of statues not far away, and hurriedly beckoned, "Miss Nian'er, come here!" ”

"What's the matter, Brother Lin?" Nian'er saw that Lin Yuan was calling her, so she walked over, and then glanced at Chang Sheng beside Lin Yuan with what she thought was the most ordinary look.

"Look, does it look like Chang Sheng?" Lin Yuan pointed to the statue and smiled.

"Oh?" Nian'er walked around the statue and said in surprise, "Why is it so similar?" She turned to Chang Sheng and joked, "Brother Chang, could it be that the craftsmen in this temple are people you know?" ”

"It's like, it's not like." Chang Sheng's tone weakened, but he still insisted.

"What are you talking about, so happy." Yu Rui pulled Ning Xi to the backyard, heard their voices from a distance, and walked over to ask.

"Gege, Third Young Master, you're here." Lin Yuan still had a wicked smile on his face, and then turned to Chang Shengdao, "Just ask the master to take a look, does this statue look like you." ”

Ning Xi glanced at the statue, then at Chang Sheng, and said in surprise: "Why is it so coincidental?" It's really like that. ”

"Are you sure you didn't sculpt this statue in a mirror?" Yu Rui patted Chang Sheng's shoulder and said with a smile.

Nian'er saw a sweeping monk not far away, so she walked over and said something to him. Then, the sweeping monk followed Nian'er and bowed to everyone: "Donors, the poor monk is polite." ”

"Dare to ask this master," Chang Sheng said first, "when did this statue exist?" ”

"This row has been there for a long time," said the sweeping monk, "It is said that as early as a thousand years ago, this was still a royal temple, and there was a tradition in the temple at that time that every virtuous king was carved for everyone to worship. This row was carved at that time. ”

"Then these are the emperors?" Lin Yuan asked.

"yes, both." "Later, the dynasty fell, and when a new dynasty was established, this tradition disappeared. Later, it was changed to statues of some highly respected people," he said, pointing to the remaining rows of statues, "These are some great good men, divine doctors, and victorious generals and the like, all of whom are loved by the people anyway." ”

"I can't see it, you were still an emperor in your last life?" Lin Yuan stabbed Chang Sheng and said.
