6. Mrs. Donald
The sky was gloomy, and the morning light at eight o'clock in the morning was as dark as four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and even the flowing air made people feel very depressed.
The mountain road is rugged and winding, and on a small road, a young man wearing short sleeves and bare arms is driving slowly on a bicycle that is not very new, and there are full of white boxed lunches in the frame, and there are about more than a dozen old highs piled up in the frame of the car that occasionally block the young man's view of the road, but even if he looks at the young man's posture, he is still steady, and he always avoids large stones accurately.
"Brother Qing, you came to deliver food to the masters in the temple again, the weather is not bad today! ・・・・・ ride slowly" on the side of the trail are a few sparse vegetable vendors carrying their own vegetables on their shoulders and hurrying to the city to sell them this morning, and when they saw the young man, they greeted them warmly and said a few words with a smile.
"Auntie, it's okay, it's safe..." The young man on the bicycle listened to the words, turned his head to a delicate face, his lips pursed slightly, and smiled shyly at the person who spoke.
Su Qinghe, who was holding the handlebar, smiled and said hello to the vegetable vendors passing by, his fair face and pure eyes made people feel good in his heart, the vegetable vendors on this road are all the original residents who live next to him, Aunt Zhou and his wife, who just moved in a few days ago, and Su Qinghe live on a street not far away, Aunt Zhou and his wife are very good-tempered people, and Su Qinghe, who came together, is also an eighteen-year-old boy, and he always greets his neighbors with a smile, When I met the vendors who came into the city every day to sell vegetables, they always helped and helped.
came and went, and the people on the same street all knew Aunt Zhou's family, and it was Brother Qing'er's call every day. As for everyone who regards themselves as Aunt Zhou's son, Su Qinghe does not refute it, although this Su Qinghe is not officially registered now, he is nominally the son of Aunt Zhou and his wife, and his mouth is also shouted by his parents.
Every time Aunt Zhou listens to someone else's sentence about how good your kid is, her face is always smiling, and her eyes are always satisfied, why should he open his mouth to break the hearts of these two kind old men! For what he wants to do in the future, it is destined to hurt them, if he can make his heart a little better and make Aunt Zhou happy, let him make up for it, be a good son and be better to them.
Su Qinghe remembered that not long after the conversation with Aunt Zhou and his wife that day, they were ready to leave and move here the next day. If it weren't for the original body, they would have moved out long ago, and the government had already issued a relocation order, the house was originally a dangerous building, and it was very difficult to sell the original house in a short time, and in the end, the room was sold to a family next door at a low price.
Everything is ready, Su Qinghe tidied up the original house to see if there is anything left in the original body, if he just comes to the door with a similar appearance to Tang Nan and says that he is the child of the Tang family who has been lost for 18 years, Su Qinghe believes that even an ordinary person of the Tang family will not let him get closer to the Tang family's compound, not to mention that he wants to approach the old lady of the Tang family who goes up the mountain to the temple on the 18th of every month to worship the Buddha and is guarded by everyone!
So he needed a credential, something that could prove his identity as a member of the Tang family. And that thing, thinking of this, Su Qinghe couldn't help but show a sneer on his face, and thanks to his carefulness in his previous life, every time he took a bath, he saw that Tang Nan had never taken off a jade pendant that he was carrying, so he asked curiously.
According to what Tang Nan said inadvertently, when the young grandson of the Tang family was lost eighteen years ago, he was carrying a jade pendant that was a pair of Tang Nan - a phoenix jade pendant. The pair of jade pendants was specially carved by the famous jade carving master when the old lady of the Tang family was still alive, there is only such a pair in this world and nothing else, the one Tang Nan carried was a phoenix pendant.
And the other phoenix pendant is here, Su Qinghe touched the jade pendant on his neck, his eyes were pure, his lips hooked a smile, and the sky became more and more gloomy.
Aunt Zhou and his wife set up a small shop on the street, selling breakfast, steamed buns and porridge. The business is not very good, but it is not bad, the days of living with Aunt Zhou and his wife are peaceful and joyful, it is the family affection that he dreamed of in his previous life but never had, but he changed his body in this life but got it, but this kind of life can not eliminate the resentment in his heart, but the memory of the previous life before the death of the scene is becoming clearer and clearer.
Su Qinghe knew that even if he changed his body, his hatred for Tang Nan could not be changed, and the horror was that every night came, Su Qinghe always repeated the death of his previous life, he couldn't prevent his own death, watching the child he regarded as a treasure turn into a pool of blood, seeing with his own eyes how he lost his breath, how those people ignored it, and the disgust that could not be concealed in that person's eyes... The repeated death, the pain of being restrained made him wake up night and night, and the hatred deepened more and more.
In this life, he and Tang Nan are destined to die.
It was Su Qinghe's idea to send food and food to the masters in the temple, and only in this way could he have the opportunity to get close to the old lady of the Tang family on the eighteenth day of the month.
For Su Qinghe's idea, Uncle Zhou naturally agreed, the temple on the mountain is not far away Su Qinghe will arrive in a few minutes if he rides a bicycle, but Aunt Zhou feels that it is a little hard to get up so early in the morning every day, and he didn't want Su Qinghe to suffer that hardship, so he didn't agree, but in the end, Su Qinghe refused on the grounds that he wanted to do things and didn't want to be idle at home, and the child wanted to become better Aunt Zhou couldn't stop it, and besides, it was not good for the two men in the family to be unified only if they were stiff, so they agreed to Su Qinghe's suggestion.
With this job, Su Qinghe got up early every day to prepare vegetarian dishes and vegetarian rice and rode the second-hand bicycle on the road, and for most of the month, Su Qinghe gradually inquired about many things under the intention of building a good relationship with the little monks in the temple, which family came to ask for blessings, which couple came to ask for marriage, but the most important thing is that the old lady of the Tang family has not changed her habit of coming to the temple to pray for blessings for many years.
According to the little monk, on the eighteenth day of every month, the old lady of the Tang family would bring her subordinates to the temple, and each time they would be received by the presiding master, so that the group would stay here for three or four days, which has not changed for many years.
And today is the eighteenth, that is, the day when the old lady of the Tang family came to the temple. Su Qinghe must meet the old lady of the Tang family today, otherwise he will have to wait until the next eighteen if he misses today, he really can't wait, and he must succeed no matter what today.
For a while, my heart turned around a lot, and I glanced at the crowd of people with burdens on my shoulders next to me, and my face suddenly changed and slowly showed embarrassment, and my face turned red, and the hand holding the handlebar was also loosened, and the route of the car with the load and weight was immediately twisted, and the people who saw it were mentioned.
"Oops! It's too late..."
"Brother Qing, what's wrong..."
Su Qinghe touched his head, his eyes were pure, "I overslept today, and it's not early this day... Auntie, I have to go." ・ "I looked at the sky, with obvious anxiety, "・・The master in the temple is afraid that he has finished his morning class and is waiting for me to deliver food... ”
"Yes. Brother Qing, you hurry up, ..."
It took a few minutes to get to the foot of the temple. The road on the mountain cannot be ridden up, because the temple is built with a ladder that has to be climbed by manpower, and the ladder is said to be good to the outside world to eliminate evil obstacles, so if the person who has done evil only needs to climb it.
So Su Qinghe scoffed at this, got out of the car and parked the car at the foot of the mountain against the tree and locked it with an iron chain, all of them are neighbors on the same street, everyone knows each other, and the car is a half-old but not new, plus the little master who carries water in the temple occasionally goes down the mountain, so he is not afraid of someone stealing the car here. However, Su Qinghe still added a chain in case of emergency. I parked the car and climbed up the hill with my food.
After a while, when he arrived at the gate of the temple, Su Qinghe greeted the little master guarding the door and walked into the temple with a familiar approach.
"Brother Qing'er, you are here" The one who came to meet was the burning monk in the temple, bald and round-headed, with a kind face, and he was a familiar one to Su Qinghe in this temple.
As he entered the place where the monks were eating, sure enough, the masters of the monastery had just finished their morning class. Su Qinghe helped divide the meal, and he was already sweating after a busy meal, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Drink saliva" The monk saw that his face was sweaty, kindly wiped the sweat from his coat pocket and handed it to him, and then poured another glass of water. "Brother Qing, after drinking, you should hurry down the mountain!"
His heart suddenly sudden, and Su Qinghe immediately raised his head and stared at the burning monk who was talking, and the action of wiping sweat on his hands also stopped with the master.
"Brother Qing, what's wrong with you..." The fire monk looked at him suspiciously, thinking that his face had not been washed this morning, he wiped his face with his sleeve, and explained in his mouth, "The morning class arranged by the presiding master was not finished, and the senior brothers and brothers got up early today to clean the temple to get clean, and my eyes are still squinting" After speaking, his mouth really yawned.
"How can it be good, the host master asked you to clean up..." Su Qinghe continued to wipe his sweat casually with a white cloth with a temptation.
"? You don't know" The fire monk was quite surprised, and he couldn't imagine that there would be someone who didn't know about it. After touching the round bald head with his hand, he looked at Su Qinghe in confusion, but suddenly realized that he seemed to remember something, and his hand patted his head excitedly, and pulled him to a hidden place, and the mysterious secret said: "At this time of year, there will be a big man coming to us." ”
"Big shots?" Su Qinghe's eyes were deep.
"Yes, big shots. The mother of the ruler of the Tang family, do you think it's a big deal..." I forgot Brother Qing'er, you just moved in a few days ago, and it's normal that you don't know. ”
"Well, I don't know if anyone told me when I first came... Su Qinghe continued to test without leaving a trace, wanting to inquire about something.
Seeing the curiosity in the young man's eyes, the fire monk continued with an itch, "Then the old lady of the Tang family is here□□..."
At this time, there was a loud bang of the bell ringing in the temple.
"No, this is the master asking people to gather... Brother Qing'er, I can't tell you" As soon as he heard the voice, the fire monk stopped talking, his face was anxious, and he raised his legs and walked forward, and then remembered Su Qinghe, who was in place, hurriedly turned around, turned around and ordered, "By the way, Brother Qing'er, you have to leave quickly, no outsiders are allowed in the temple now." If the master sees you here, he will punish me for copying the scriptures."
