The next day, when it was almost dawn, I got up and was a little excited to go out and have a look. I washed up early, and waited for my father and mother in the dining room, and soon they came, and when I saw that I was up earlier than them, my father smiled and said, "Is the sun coming out in the west today?" The mother then said, "I look like it." I knew they were making fun of me, and I didn't refute it, just said, "Daddy and mom eat." My father and mother smiled at each other and sat down to eat. After the meal, the mother asked Qinghe and the woman in blue beside her to take the prepared candles and incense to the carriage, the woman in blue was named Huang Ying, who was one year younger than Qinghe.

When everything was ready, we set off, and all the way I looked out the carriage window, although it was a country road, but it was a different scenery, and the air was very good. I saw that there was another carriage behind our carriage, and there was only this one road here, which led to the Temple of Mercy and Grace, and it should also be to go to the temple, and the day we went to the temple was the day when Master Yuanwu received visitors, so I think there must be a lot of people going to the Temple of Mercy and Grace today.

Ci'en Temple was originally the only temple in Qingcheng, the incense was continuous, and with the addition of Master Yuanwu from Foguang Temple in the capital, the incense was even more prosperous. I heard Qinghe say that Master Yuanwu thought that he was a master, and it turned out that when he was in the capital, not only Wang Sun Guixuan often went to the master to solve his doubts, but even the Queen Mother and the emperor often chatted with the master, if there is a chance, I really want to meet this master.

On the way to the temple, all kinds of vendors, all kinds of shouting and selling, so lively. At this time, I was like a real child, excited to get off the carriage and have a look. My mother saw my intention and said, "Wan'er is not in a hurry, the bazaar will not end until Shen Shi." After listening to my mother's words, I calmed down, thinking that it was hard to go out once, and I would have to take a good stroll later, I don't know when the next time will be.

When we arrived at the gate of the temple, after we got off the bus, Ah Fu, Qinghe, and Huang Ying went into the temple with us, and Xiao Luzi went to park the carriage and came to find us. There are really a lot of people today, I walked into the temple with my father, and my father said to us: "I'll go to the backyard to see if I can see Master Yuanwu, you first make incense and make a vow, and by the way add some sesame oil money, and then come to the backyard to find me, Master Yuanwu will only be a visitor today, and I have to wait a month next time, and I don't know if I can see it." ”

The mother said, "Yes, sir." You go first, and then I'll bring Wan'er with you. ”

Dad nodded, and then walked to the backyard meditation room, my mother led me into the hall, and saw the host master, my mother stepped forward to greet the master: "Host master, hello." ”

The host master said, "Oh, it turned out to be Lord Sun, Amitabha. It's been a long time, but it's good to come in. ”

The mother said: "There is Master Lao's memory, my husband and I are well, that is, some time ago, the little girl was sick for many days, but now she is well, so I came to pray for blessings." ”

Presiding Master: "Amitabha, Wang Xiao Donor, if you don't come to Ji Tailai, you will have a blessed fate in the future." ”

"Thank you, Master." As she spoke, she took out a piece of silver from her bosom, handed it to the little novice beside the master, and said to the presiding master, "This is the sesame oil money that my husband and I gave to your temple." ”

The presiding master said: "Amitabha, Ziwu has thanked the king and the grandson. Then let the little novice take it.

After seeing the host's sesame oil money, the mother said, "Then we won't disturb the host master." ”

The host master said: "Master Sun is at his own convenience. ”

My mother stayed with me kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, and there were words in my mouth: "Buddha, some time ago, the little girl was sick for many days and did not get better, thanks to the blessing of the Buddha to recover, first brought the little girl to come to the incense to pray for blessings." As he spoke, he kowtowed 3 times, and said: "I hope that the Buddha can always bless and protect the little girl, Wan'er, she has been pitiful since she was a child, I only hope that she can always be happy and healthy in the future." After saying that, I kowtowed three more times, and then asked me to thank the Buddha and kowtow three times. Qinghe and Huang Ying lit incense, handed it to me and my mother, bowed to the Buddha statue three times, and then let Qinghe and Huang Ying insert them into the incense altar, and then lit the incense candle and inserted it on the candlestick next to it. After my mother asked for a sign, I wanted to go to the back mountain to see, so I told my mother, and my mother asked Qinghe to follow me. I pulled Qinghe out of the main hall and walked towards the back mountain, and said, "Sister Qinghe, have you come to see the begonia flowers?" ”

Qinghe replied: "I came at this time last year, but it was only a quick glimpse, and a sea of flowers was very beautiful. ”

Looking at Qinghe's face full of longing, I also want to see it quickly, trotting all the way, came to the back mountain, strolled into it with a faint fragrance, looking at the flowers on the begonia tree, red, pink, white, the branches are dense and overlapping, the flowers are competing to open, the flowers are like brocade, the warbler is singing and dancing, gorgeous and dazzling, like clouds, which reminds me of the sentence in the Book of Poetry: "Vote for me with papaya, repay it with Qiongju; Bandit retribution, always think it is good! Vote for me with a peach, and repay it with Qiong Yao; Bandit retribution, always think it is good! Vote for me with Mu Li, and repay it with Qiongjiu; Bandit retribution, always think it is good! ”

A voice came, "You can also write poetry!" I also know that this is describing begonias. ”

I followed the sound and saw that it was an 8 or 9-year-old boy, with clear eyebrows and a smile that made people feel like a spring breeze, and I thought to myself, this child will definitely fascinate many girls when he grows up. I said, "I only know one thing. ”

The boy said, "It's good to know a little, but it's not too big to see you." Some of them are about your age, and they don't know anything. ”

I said, "Look at you, you must have read a lot of books!" ”

The boy said, "No, I've just entered the school, but I've read some books at home before. ”

I said, "Then you want to be the champion in the future!" ”

The boy said: "I didn't think that far, I just want to study hard now, and I just want to be black and white." Of course, it's good if you can get in, but it's okay if you can't. ”

"Hehe, right and wrong are in the hearts of people, and there is no need to learn them." I said with a smile.

The boy looked at me in amazement, his eyes full of incredulity. I thought to myself, I said that I don't know things at such a young age. The boy woke up from a dream and said, "I am so stupid, even you can understand things, but I am obsessed with this, I really shouldn't be." ”

I had a drop of sweat on my forehead, but luckily he didn't notice it, which startled me. I just smiled and didn't speak, walking along the begonia flowers, the boy followed me all the time, we didn't speak, silently admiring the begonia flowers, the faint fragrance of flowers was refreshing, the butterflies flying around in the flowers, adding another stroke to the scenery, I smiled, shuttled in it, although I had the opportunity to see a lot of flowers in my previous life, but not as happy as now. The boy looked at me with a smile, I was tired of running, so I went to the pavilion next to me to rest, there was sweat on my forehead, I took out a silk cloth to wipe it, and the hair on my forehead was pushed aside by me, the boy looked at me, and his smile faded.

I saw his expression, and thought to myself that I must have seen the birthmark on my forehead, I don't care, God has given me a chance to be reborn, what is this, this little boy will not be scared! I said, "Are you scared by my birthmark?" ”

The boy reflected, shook his head and said, "No, is this your birthmark?" ”

I nodded.

The boy continued: "You don't have to feel inferior, you don't have to be sad, your birthmark is shaped like a butterfly, it's very special, on your forehead, it's like being attracted by you, lying on your face!" It's beautiful. ”

I thought to myself, is this little boy very good at talking! If only other little girls would like him! But my soul is a 26-year-old adult, and it's a pity that he said this! I smiled and said, "I'm not sad, I don't have low self-esteem, this is a gift from God!" And my mother said that she was not afraid of not finding me, there was nothing bad about it. ”

When the boy saw me say this, his smile returned to his face and said to me, "I lost my temper just now, in fact, I wasn't scared, it's just that I saw your birthmark and was afraid that you would be unhappy." ”

I said indifferently: "It's okay, anyway, people's faces are for people to see, and if you don't want to show people, then it's better to stay at home." ”

The boy smiled and didn't speak. I continued, "By the way, what's your name! It's been like this for a long time, and I don't even know what your name is. ”

The boy hurriedly said: "I forgot to introduce myself, my surname is Xu, my name is Zijie, and the word Zimu is Zimu." He lives in the county seat of Qingchengling County. I'm older than you, you can call me Brother Zijie. ”

I rolled my eyes in my heart and thought, Sister boy, I am actually a 26-year-old person, let me call you brother, I think it is beautiful.

"My family lives in Pingyang County, my name is "I was about to say it, when I heard an urgent shout.

"Miss, where are you, Miss! When he heard it, he replied. Qinghe shouted eagerly.

Ah, I forgot, I just looked at the begonia flowers, and I didn't realize that I was separated from Qinghe, so I hurriedly shouted: "Sister Qinghe, I'm here." Qinghe heard my voice and hurried to me, panting and said, "Miss, you scared me to death, you disappeared when you turned around." It's good that I found you, otherwise the lady and the lord would not have died in a hurry. ”

"Oh, Sister Qinghe, aren't I here, besides, this is a temple, I'll be fine." I said with a weak heart.

"Forget it this time, but there will be no next time." Qinghe said, "Miss, who is this little boy?" ”

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, this is Xu Zijie, a native of Lingxian County." I said as I introduced, and I heard a voice calling to me.

"Wan'er."

"Ah, it's my mother! Qinghe, let's hurry over! Zijie, let's see you next time! After saying that, he ran to his mother's side. Qinghe squatted slightly at Xu Zijie and saluted, and then followed me.

Xu Zijie thought to himself, why didn't this little girl call her brother, just call her by her name, forget it, seeing that she is so cute, he won't care about her. I have never seen such a cheerful girl, when I first saw her, I looked at her from a distance, with a round face, a pair of big eyes, and a small mouth talking one by one, which was very cute. To listen to her, let myself be stunned, there is a decision to be friends with her, to follow her to see her birthmark, not only does she not hide it, but also very calm, this kind of heart makes me have a feeling of indescribability. I hope to have a chance to meet her in the future, I'm looking forward to it, Wan'er.
