On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Fan Chengze got up early in the morning as usual to send his grandmother and mother to incense, and when the car drove to the corner, Chen Jun suddenly asked Fan Chengze to drive a little slower, turned around and looked out the window, with a little doubt on his face.

"What's wrong?" Grandma asked.

"It seems that I saw an acquaintance, and I confessed my mistake." Chen Jun replied with relief.

"On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are many people in the neighbors who come up to offer incense." Li Chunyu looked at the time, it was almost 7 o'clock, and it was not too early.

"Hmm." Chen Jun nodded, and Fan Chengze also followed to look in the rear mirror of the car, but he didn't see anything, so he continued to drive.

This is a big temple with the most incense in K city, especially on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are more people who offer incense. Fan Chengze quietly followed behind, helping with things. Every year when I make incense, I will meet acquaintances, and I always praise: "Your grandson is really filial." Fan Chengze remembers the habit of incense on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which began in elementary school. At that time, my mother took my brother and sister to my grandmother's house, but I always shirked that there were too many people to take with me, so I asked him to go with my grandmother. Later, when I was in high school, some classmates played, so I was not happy to follow my grandmother to incense. left home to go to college, and the time spent with his grandmother was short, and he was willing to accompany him again when he was sensible. This year, because of Su Xiaoyan's matter, although Li Chunyu still asked him to accompany him, his face has not been very good. Fan Chengze was not annoyed, so he followed silently.

Li Chunyu kept looking back, muttering why he hadn't come yet. Chen Jun lowered his face, walked to the side, and muttered very softly: "Shangxiang is also uneasy." Fan Chengze felt something wrong, and he already understood a little in his heart, so he could only stand aside and didn't want to say more.

Sure enough, Wang Sisi helped her grandmother Zheng Donglian up the stairs. She was wearing short pink down and black leggings, and she was originally medium in height, but her legs were thin and long. Her hair was tied up, revealing a smooth forehead, and makeup flattered her sleepiness, but it didn't hide her lack of detail. After Fan Chengze got used to seeing Su Xiaoyan's delicate skin, he felt that he was a lot more critical of other women's eyes. He sighed slightly, his cultivation made him not turn around, and stood with his grandmother, waiting for them to approach.

Li Chunyu took Wang Sisi's hand very enthusiastically and said, "What a filial child." It's hard for you to get a young girl up so early in the morning. ”

Seeing the three of them greeting each other warmly, Fan Chengze suddenly walked up to Chen Jun and asked softly, "Mom, why does grandma value girls I don't like so much?" Chen Jun was stunned, since he was a child, this little son has never taken the initiative to say a private word to her, one is that she is too cold, and the other is that grandma is more like his mother. Now because of Wang Sisi's affairs, he has an estrangement from his grandmother, but psychologically he is a little closer to himself who did not persecute him. Thinking about it like this, I didn't even know how to answer. Fan Chengze thought that his mother was unhappy, and when he saw Wang Sisi coming over, he regained his indifferent expression and did not speak.

"Chengze, you can accompany me to walk around." Wang Sisi leaned in, and Fan Chengze deliberately took a few steps back. "I'll accompany grandma." He didn't answer her in a gloomy way.

Li Chunyu waved his hand not far away, entered the main hall with Grandma Wang Sisi, and said, "Aze, you don't need to accompany grandma, the young man will go play by himself." ”

Wang Sisi smiled and waited for Fan Chengze's agreement, but looked at him with a stern face, a little embarrassed.

"Aze, first accompany my mother over there to donate incense money." Chen Jun beckoned to him and said to Wang Sisi with a smile: "Sisi, you just came, since you have come to the temple, go to the incense first." I'll see you later. He glanced at Fan Chengze and walked towards the side hall. Fan Chengze followed closely beside Chen Jun, the corners of his mouth raised, and he smiled secretly. Chen Jun didn't say much, but Fan Chengze already felt very good, and sat with her to listen to her talk to the master.

After a while, a little master ran over and said that the grandmothers had a quarrel with someone over there, and the two hurriedly got up and walked over to see.

It turned out that every year Li Chunyu would recite the scriptures in the side hall for a while after offering incense, so the temple would spare 2 hours there for her. This year, somehow, the little monk in charge forgot about it, and had already let some pilgrims in, Li Chunyu was unhappy and asked to clear the venue, but some old ladies were not happy, so there was some unpleasantness in words. Among them, there are also those who dissuade.

"Rich is great, isn't it?" An old woman 50 miles away said angrily, and the people next to her also catered to her.

Li Chunyu trembled angrily, and forcibly didn't answer, while Zheng Donglian stepped forward to retort: "This is what we booked, and it should be returned to us now." Go and read it. ”

"The temple is open in your house? It's great to donate some money. The old woman was even more angry and pushed her. Wang Sisi saw that her grandmother was being bullied and hurriedly walked over and quarreled with the old woman.

A white-haired old lady stepped forward and said calmly. "Forget it, this New Year, everyone who comes to worship the Buddha and recite the scriptures will be dissipated." Wang Sisi was originally unhappy, but when he saw people coming to persuade him, he was a little annoyed, so he gently pushed it. The old woman saw that the innocent persuaders were implicated, and she was not convinced, so she also stepped forward to push Wang Sisi, and her mouth was still unforgiving, saying why your girl's family is so fierce or something, and the movements of her hands were too big in the excessive speech, and the white-haired old lady was still persuading, and was pushed out by Wang Sisi. Seeing such a situation, the old woman did not show weakness and pushed down Wang Sisi fiercely.

As soon as Chen Jun entered the door, he just felt that something was wrong when he saw this scene, the white-haired old lady had taken a few steps back, as if she was about to fall, saying that it was too late, and then quickly, a woman rushed out of the back room and supported her behind, which made Chen Jun breathe a sigh of relief, and he didn't see who it was, because he felt very embarrassed, so he endured his displeasure, and Fan Chengze behind him stepped forward to help Wang Sisi and her grandmother. turned around and grabbed the mother-in-law who was about to come forward next to her, and left in a hurry, saying, "Mom, forget it, let's go to the new courtyard that has just been built next to it."

Wang Sisi and Zheng Donglian also followed. Fan Chengze looked at everyone a little embarrassed in the crowd and said a few words of sorry. Su Xiaoyan, who was hiding behind the crowd, did not show up, hung her head low, and pulled the white-haired old lady to the back room.

"Grandma, don't be nosy, you won't listen. If I hadn't just come over, you'd fall. ”

"It's not good to be noisy and noisy during the New Year, there must be someone to persuade you."

"This isn't an old lady like you, either." Su Xiaoyan's words made grandmother Xu Xiulin smile embarrassedly, and followed Su Xiaoyan out of the back door.

Su Xiaoyan regretted her decision in the morning. A year ago, they talked about what they were doing during the Spring Festival holiday. Fan Chengze said that he would accompany his grandmother to incense on the first day of the New Year, although he didn't say anything, but Su Xiaoyan heard that his grandmother said that she was going to incense tomorrow, so she automatically asked Ying to accompany her, in fact, because of the small expectation of being able to meet Fan Chengze. Mother Xiao Qiuyun didn't know what her daughter was thinking, and she was very approving: "This year ago, there were a lot of things, you go to worship the Bodhisattva and ask for everything to go well this year." ”

After walking for a while, I saw Fan Chengze and his party walking in front of me. "Affectionate and shallow", Su Xiaoyan unconsciously thought of these four words that are popular nowadays. She slowed down and watched Wang Sisi walk from her grandmother to Fan Chengze, and took his hand. Fan Chengze was pushing, she was pestering, as if Li Chunyu said something, Fan Chengze followed Wang Sisi to hold it, but it was like a fight. Looking at it this way, the talented woman is quite a harmonious picture.

Su Xiaoyan stopped, helped Xu Xiulin to sit on the stone chair, and wanted to wait for them to go away before leaving. As soon as spring passes, the weather is warm, as if the cold wave is still a few days ago, and today there is warm sunshine and budding flowers. The sound of chanting, the smell of incense, and the greenery that makes the churning heart gradually calm down. Grandma calmly said some of the Dharma paths: "The whole Dharma boils down to one point, which is to get rid of delusions. What is karma? Delusions are karma. If there is no delusion, there will be no karma, and life and death will be free. ”

Su Xiaoyan replied faintly: "As soon as the delusion is broken, you can see the nature of your heart." ”

Grandma praised her for being a calm child since she was a child, but after all, she was young, and she should still do something and not do something. Su Xiaoyan looked at her grandmother in a daze, and felt that she should not have insight into the helplessness in her heart, but just mentioned it casually, so she smiled and nodded. Because of the quarrel just now, Xu Xiulin didn't have any thoughts, so he discussed with Su Xiaoyan to go home early.

Before they reached the door, Fan Chengze and his entourage somehow turned back from the new courtyard and met them head-on. Taking advantage of the large number of people, Su Xiaoyan thought that Fan Chengze might not necessarily see him, so he hurriedly avoided it, lowered his head slightly, and held his grandmother to speed up his pace.

"Su Xiaoyan!" Fan Chengze's happy voice scared everyone. He ran down the stone staircase and stood next to her with a smile. She glanced at him a little nervously, looking through him, keeping an eye out for movement behind her. They also walked down, standing a short distance behind her, and she felt a little out of breath.

"Oh." Su Xiaoyan didn't know what to say: "Let's go." ”

"Wait." Fan Chengze took her hand, and the people behind her were stunned. "What a coincidence, come, meet my mother and grandmother."

Su Xiaoyan was a puppet who was held by Fan Chengze, she smiled forcefully in the other party's fierce eyes, and said politely: "Happy New Year!" ”

Chen Jun nodded slightly, Li Chunyu looked at her coldly, she didn't dare to look at Wang Sisi next to her, for fear that any unsatisfactory look would become a provocation.

"This is my girlfriend, Su Xiaoyan. I wanted to tell you about it in a few days, but I met it on the first day of the new year, what a coincidence! Fan Chengze smiled and hugged him, as if to give Su Xiaoyan, who was about to collapse when he heard this, a little strength. The excitement around them seemed to have nothing to do with them, and they looked at each other quietly, wondering if they were thinking about how to break this imminent conflict.

"Miss Su, she is a celebrity in K City, Aze doesn't need to be introduced, grandma knows her." Li Chunyu was the first to speak.

Su Xiaoyan didn't answer, leaned closer to her grandmother, and wanted to leave. Fan Chengze glanced at his grandmother, the smile on the corner of his mouth was still there, but there was a chill in his eyes.

"Mom, I'll accompany Xiaoyan to the party first. You accompany grandma to go shopping again, when you're done, call me, and I'll send you back. He pulled Su Xiaoyan forward, and Xu Xiulin next to him saw what was going on, and hurriedly followed his granddaughter. Su Xiaoyan stopped and refused to leave, and wanted to take his grandmother's hand, but was hugged by Fan Chengze and walked forward.

"This Buddhist resort is really unsightly." Zheng Donglian took Wang Sisi's hand and walked in the opposite direction. Li Chunyu shouted from behind: "Aze! But Fan Chengze didn't answer her, her face turned blue, and she turned her face to ask Chen Jun: "Do you think this son can find a woman at will?" ”
