Chapter 27: Repentance

Proven to work!

These four big characters sounded like the bell in the front yard of Huashou Temple, waking up Mo Daoxuan in contemplation.

At this moment, he recalled the scene when he first married Ah Shu. At that time, the two lived in a bamboo hut on the mountain behind the academy, facing each other with two flat-headed cases piled up with books, studying day by day just to learn one day and benefit all the people.

But as his fame grew, more and more people came to him to seek scholarship, and gradually he devoted most of his energy to mundane things. He accepted the will of Emperor Taishang, who was still on the throne at the time, and became an official in Hanlin. Pavilions and pavilions, gold piles of jade, winding water, gold bottles and wine, the prosperity of the capital is charming, and the original intention of doing learning is consumed.

I don't know when it started, only Ah Shu was left in front of the Pingtou case. Until she became seriously ill and entrusted this last wish to him when she died.

Before, he was only entangled in the question, but now that the answer is really revealed, he feels it. She had already understood this question thoroughly, and the reason why she solemnly entrusted her with her last breath was just to warn him.

"What is the purpose of studying?"

Ah Shu, you have never forgotten your youthful ambition, and you have been working hard for it all your life. Even to death, you don't forget to wake up your lost husband.

Kneeling on his knees facing the pagoda, Mo Daru clenched his fists and slammed into the ground, bursting into tears.

"Amitabha."

Standing behind him, looking at the glitz and glitz that was gradually withdrawing from his body, Kukai looked at the stupa with compassion in his eyes.

In the front yard of Huashou Temple, not far from the pagoda, under the old Bodhi tree in front of the main hall, Ah Yao squatted below with her knees hugged, her little hands unconsciously pulling the Bodhi seed, and her heart struggled violently.

Someone just said she was stupid, short, and ...... No, in just a few words, she was found out from the inside out to the point of being useless.

But the person who said this was a little marquis, and she couldn't afford to mess with her high power.

Self-esteem or small life?

"Come here."

Standing on the steps of the main hall, condescending, Lu Jingyuan beckoned to the little girl who was scratching her ears and cheeks under the tree through the incense burner.

Who is going to listen to him! Ah Yao lowered her head and picked up the bodhi seed intently.

It's the other way around! With a shady face, Lu Jingyuan raised his soap boots, walked up to her in three steps and two steps, bent down to her ear, and whispered a few words.

Under the consternation, Ah Yao's palms loosened, and the Bodhi seeds in her hands scattered, rolling down with the raised roots of the Bodhi tree, scattered everywhere.

"Really?"

Lu Jingyuan raised his chin proudly.

There are some people who stand there alone, and they don't need any words to be convinced, and the young man in the dark clothes in front of him is such a person. What he said just now was nothing else, it was "someone coveted the Hu family's treasury". There are many thieves shouting to catch thieves, and Song Qinwen in her previous life is not talking about helping her find out the real murderer of her father, and on the other hand, she secretly communicates with the real murderer to get the property of the Hu family.

Reborn once, she is quite a bit of a soldier, if she is someone else, she will definitely be suspicious, but the person in front of her makes her not the slightest guard.

"Who?"

Seeing that he was unhappy, he paused, and Ah Yao showed a pleading look on his face: "Brother Jing, can you tell Ah Yao, who is that person?" ”

Why didn't you see this girl in her previous life, Lu Jingyuan sighed in his heart. In the previous life, there were other people who came to Qingcheng, and in this life, because of his rash interference, they turned to the shadows. And his arrival blocked some people's financial routes, and even the layout of the other party has changed. The only thing that remains unchanged is that the gold and silver mountains in the Hu family's treasury are still coveted by everyone.

In the past half a month, he has done his best to lay out, but there are people outside the world, although he can do better if he is reborn once, but he still can't guarantee everything.

But he couldn't put this girl in danger, she was so stupid, she deserved to be protected by him. Just give her a reminder first, Hu Jiuling should have been prepared for it after he knew it. As long as he doesn't die in vain in this life, and the Hu family is shocked by him, this girl should be able to continue to be stupid without worry.

In the following years, when the little marquis who was courting was repeatedly rejected by his father-in-law, Lao Taishan, who was old and strong, he was choked every time he thought of what he was thinking and doing today.

It really fulfills the old saying: to be old and not die is to be a thief!

However, there was no front and back eyes, and Lu Jingyuan, who had made up his mind, leaned closer, and when the person in front of his chest couldn't help but pout, he slowly spoke: "Only ask now?" It's late! ”

There are such annoying people in the world.

Stomping her feet, Yao stepped back, trying to get away from him. But when she took a step back, he stepped forward, and at the same time caught her tightly with those eyes as sharp as a falcon.

After a few steps, her back ran into an obstacle, and she was already leaning against the linden tree. He pressed to follow step by step, his left hand brushing her cheek against the trunk of the tree, and he leaned over, unable to see that his face was getting closer and closer to hers.

"Don't you think I'm short and un...... Not smart enough! Closing her eyes and clenching her fists, A-Yao's voice trembled.

"What's more?"

There was a cheerful laugh overhead, something grabbed her bud, and then a hand dangled in front of her. Ah Yao's eyes narrowed a slit, and he saw that he was holding a half-sized Bodhi in his hand, looking at her playfully.

"Something fell on your head."

It seems that he has misunderstood him again...... Just when A-Yao was so embarrassed that she couldn't help it, a slightly heavy sound of pushing the door came, and the middle door of the main hall opened.

Through the gap in his creaking nest, Ah Yao looked at the bamboo basket on the steps, which contained all kinds of Buddha worship things prepared by Ah Niang herself.

"I'll go and worship the Buddha first."

With that, she bowed her head and knees, slipped under his arm from the tree, and trotted to the steps of the main hall. Finally free, she breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the bamboo basket and stepped onto the main hall, raising her legs and stepping over the threshold.

Standing under the Bodhi tree, seeing her timid and flexible appearance like a little squirrel, Lu Jingyuan raised a doting smile. The plain girl who came out of the backyard skimmed the afterglow, and the curvature of her lips was instantly smoothed.

"The people's daughters see the Marquis of Dingbei."

She walked over gracefully and saluted at the young man in Xuanyi under the tree, and Shen Moci saluted. Seeing that he didn't say anything for a moment, she got up on her own.

"It seems that Master Hou has a lot of misunderstandings about the people's daughters, but is it because of the Hu family's girls?"

Seeing that he didn't deny it, she smiled helplessly, and her tone when she spoke was more like accommodating an ignorant child, "The folk girl and Ah Yao's cousin are classmates, and they often discuss each other's knowledge in one place, and the relationship is inevitably closer, Ah Yao may have some misunderstanding about this." She is the only daughter of the Hu family, and it is inevitable that she will be favored at home, which is not a big deal. ”

Seeing the young man nodding, he seemed to agree with what she said, and Shen Moci's heart that had been hit one after another was finally comforted.

What Kukai Master and what Mo Daru, the two together are not as important as the one in front of them. As long as she can pull the little marquis over, she will be able to recover all her previous losses.

But then his words easily sent her to hell, "It's really not a big deal, it's naΓ―ve, it's better than serving people in Israel." ”

How would he know? Shen Moci was still fighting: "Is there a misunderstanding of Master Hou?" ”

Lu Jingyuan looked at her with disgust: "Go back and tell King SΓΉ Ping, Qingcheng Silk Market is not a place where he can interfere." ”

Sure enough, he knew it all! His pupils shrank, and after saluting indiscriminately, Shen Moci left in a hurry.

Admiring her slightly hasty back, Lu Jingyuan's eyes were obscure. can fight him for an oiran, but he can't be stripped naked and thrown on the street, King Ping has always been just a straw bale. But the power behind this straw bag should not be underestimated, and in his previous life, even a shrewd person like Hu Jiuling could be calculated by him.

Now that the bait has been released, he is just waiting to close the net.
