Chapter 4 Escape into Buddhism
Yang Shu was smart since she was a child, and at a very young age, she could recite and interpret more esoteric reading materials such as "Mao's Poems" (the ancient "Poems" edited and annotated by Mao Heng of the Lu State and Mao Chang of the Zhao State during the Western Han Dynasty, that is, the "Book of Songs" that is now popular in the world), and liked to dance and ink, doodle and paint.

At the age when ordinary girls should do embroidery, weaving, sewing and other female work, Yang Shu learned "Ming poetry and etiquette", liked to "read history and pictures", and wrote good words and articles!
Later, she became interested in Buddhism, often studying religious books, and said that her parents bought Buddha statues and Buddhist objects.
Yang Da and his wife, who regard their beloved daughter as the pearl of their palms, are of course obedient, and have set aside a room as their daughter's Buddhist hall.
Yang Shu also spent most of her time in the Buddhist hall studying hard, praying sincerely, and focusing on chanting sutras and praising the Buddha.
Cardamom years, she is not like other girls, she likes to apply grease and powder, but shows her face, even so, it does not affect her beautiful Tianzi country!
As a result, the matchmakers and the people who proposed relatives were about to break through the threshold of the Yang Mansion! The purpose is the same: to marry the one who took the capital
"Kyohana"!
However, Yang Shu, who was expected by Zhuge Liang, is more Zhuge Liang than Zhuge Liang!
After Zhuge Liang visited the thatched house three times after Liu Bei, he finally gave Liu Bei face, walked out of the thatched house, and finally came out of the mountain.
But Yang Shu let others look at it again and again, but she didn't go out of the cabinet (get married)!
It's not that she doesn't give face to others, but because she gives face to the Bodhisattva: she is dedicated to the Buddha!
This is a big deal for her parents!
Left persuasion and right persuasion failed, Yang Da and his wife had no choice but to take down their old faces, blew up the ** rhyme, and told their daughter about the reason why she came from, and shook out the "heavenly machine" that they (they) had leaked to Yang Da in Yichang's romantic history and Zhuge Liang!
Yang Shu just smiled.
Yang Da and his wife persuaded bitterly: "Shu'er, don't live up to our good intentions. At your age, people are already mothers! They (they) pointed to Xiao Yang, the maid standing next to her, "Look at Xiao Yang, she is only two years older than you, but she has been a mother for four or five years, and she has a pair of children." ”
Yang nodded with a smile, and helped persuade: "Miss, listen to your parents, that's right." ”
Yang Shu shook her head stubbornly.
Yang Da and his wife had no choice but to sigh bitterly: "This kid has neglected to learn Buddhism, and he has gone crazy in learning!" ”
······ Yang Da and his wife, who were worried day and night, had to accompany the smiling face: "Shu'er, we are all old!" At our age, people have long been grandparents! You can give us the 'source' of 'Hongfu'! ”
Although the parents said it with a smile, it was a hard move: the matter has been mentioned to the height of filial piety!
Yang Shu thought for a while and said to her parents: "Since I can give my parents this 'source' of 'great fortune' in Lizhou, then ask my parents to marry their daughter to Lizhou." ”
The capital Chang'an is 108,000 miles away from Lizhou! Isn't this a deliberate attempt to excuse oneself? In the face of the obsessive and unrepentant beloved daughter, Yang Da and his wife really want to cry without tears, and it is difficult to laugh!
In this way, Yang Shu's bright and delicious and beautiful youth gradually faded in the smoke of the Buddhist hall, in the anxiety and sorrow of her parents, and in her calm and persistent perseverance.
············
In 611, 62-year-old Yang Da stared at 32-year-old Yang Shu, old tears flowed, she had a thousand words to say to this beloved daughter, but at this time she could only make a final admonition.
The sound of the military horn is compelling!
Yang Da turned around and left, with infinite love and infinite concern for his beloved daughter, and with bitter tears, he followed Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Ming Dynasty to embark on the journey of the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, which is such an old dragon bell! Such a faltering step! Such a sad knot!
Yang Shu looked at her father's slightly hunched figure in the distance, a deep guilt and haunting concern, which made her, who had never shed tears, burst into tears!
What Yang Shu didn't expect, this time was the farewell between their father and daughter!
At the same time as Yang Da, his eldest brother Yang Xiong was also accompanying the army to the east. Yang Xiong served as the general of Zuo Yuwei and went out of Liaodong Road; Yang Da served as the general of the right military guard, and took the position of the left Guanglu doctor.
Unfortunately, both brothers died on the way to battle in the same year: Yang Xiong died in February 611 at the age of 71; Yang Da died in May two months and 20 days later at the age of 62.
When Yang Da returned to the light, he must have regretted: if only he had a grandson of the "source" of "Hongfu", Lord Yama would not dare to take his life so early!
So, though his heart stopped beating, his eyes were open, open: he would not be blind!
"There are no colorful phoenix wings, and the heart is a little clear." Mrs. Yang Da died in exactly the same mood and state as her husband!
In 613, Yang Shu's second brother Yang followed his parents again!
At this time, Yang Shu is all in vain!
She vowed to give the rest of her life to the boundless Buddha Sea, and not turn back and go ashore!
With the same belief as her, there are also her servants (to be precise, the servants of the original Yang Mansion), the original Xiao Yang, the current Yang family's and later Yang Ma, fate gave her one blow after another: her husband died in battle, her son died young, and her daughter died of illness! The desperate Yang family is determined not to marry again, and escapes into the empty door! Practice!
Yang Shu took out the silver and stuffed it to the Yang family: "Sister Yang, you are not as single as I have always been, you used to be a layman, and now you are only in your early thirties, and the days are long, go, find a good mother-in-law, and live a good life." ”
Yang's tears rolled down, dripping wet clothes: "Miss, I am a hard-working person, a Buddha in this life, and I hope for the next life." Besides, your parents are so kind to me, how can I bear to leave Miss and walk away by myself? ”
Just like that, the two hugged each other! Crying!
In this way, two lonely and weak women are holding the equally lonely and decrepit Yang Mansion!
Yang's Mansion has become a copycat version of a nunnery······
