Chapter 39: Worship the Buddha

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the weather is a little cold, but the festive atmosphere dispels this coldness.

"Stinky boy, don't sleep, get up quickly, and accompany my mother to incense!" The sound of a Hedong lion's roar woke He Dong.

"Mom, I'm sleepy, sleep a little longer!" He Dong said in a daze.

"Hurry up, it's grinding, if you go late, there will be no place in the Wentan Temple, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, don't force my mother to be rough!" Mom's voice was as strong as ever.

"I'll get up right away!"

During the Chinese New Year, He Dong naturally thought of sleeping until he woke up naturally, but his mother did not give him this opportunity, and on the first day of the Lunar New Year, according to custom, he wanted to go to the temple to offer incense.

The Wentan Temple in Nanzheng City is well-known far and near, there are many pilgrims, and on the first day of the Lunar New Year, worshipping Buddha is a custom, begging for the coming year's wind and rain, everything is smooth.

If it's too late, you'll have to wait in a long line.

Last year's He family had big ups and downs, and my mother naturally wanted to put it on a show, she and her sister-in-law were ready early in the morning, and He Dong was lucky to become his mother's designated personal guard.

In the face of his mother's power at home and the threat of a feather duster, he can only obey orders.

"Third Uncle, Ninth Uncle, Happy New Year!"

After He Dong got up, he washed up neatly and walked out of the room, at this moment there were already several waves of guests in the living room who came to pay New Year's greetings in advance, and his father He Lixin and eldest brother He Nan were entertaining.

However, the two were obviously not in high spirits.

This year's He family is very lively, early in the morning by the time of New Year's greetings, there has been an endless stream of people to visit, more than in previous years, much more.

Thinking about it, He Lixin is now different from what it used to be, not only has he not been defeated, but he has also gone to the next level, and there are many people who fell into the well at the beginning, so they naturally want to take the opportunity of New Year's greetings to mend the relationship with him.

"Dongzi, wake up, send a red envelope, New Year's profit is yes!"

Several guests looked at He Dong and hurriedly handed out two red envelopes, bulging.

"Thank you, Uncle Three, thank you Uncle Nine!" He Dong politely took two red envelopes with a lot of weight, and his handsome face showed a shy smile, but the coldness in his eyes seemed to be indelible.

The third uncle, He Lizhi, is a middle-aged man who has made some fortune, and the ninth uncle, He Libin, is tall and thin, and looks very shrewd, they are all relatives of the He family and within the nine suits.

These two people are doing a lot of business, one is engaged in construction, the other is engaged in transportation, and they have a lot of skills to avoid bad luck, to say that He Lixin is not thin on them, when they entered the city, it was He Lixin Zhang Luo.

But when He Lixin had an accident, the two of them ran faster than rabbits.

Now that He Lixin has ascended, they have come to the door tightly.

He Lixin's personality is broad, although he knows a lot of people's faces, but these are all from Hejiazhuang, and they don't care too much, but Yu Xiuke is different.

She is a little woman, and she is still a standard Sichuan girl, with a clear love and hate, if it weren't for the sake of looking at the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yu Xiu would definitely drive them out with the broom.

"Dongzi, what are you doing slowly, let's go!" Yu Xiu had a cold face and called He Dong.

"It's coming!"

He Dong hurriedly shouted.

Yu Xiu faced this group of relatives, she had a cold face from beginning to end, and did not give them a good look, if it wasn't for her husband He Lixin's sake, even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it is estimated that she would dare to drive people away.

She simply couldn't see it, and directly pulled He Dong and Xu Yan, or the first day of junior high school, and went out to worship God.

At the door, they met He Lihong, He Lihong came by car, he watched Yu Xiu and Xu Yan hurriedly go out, and was suddenly a little surprised: "Sister-in-law, where are you going?" ”

"Lihong, you came just in time, take a good look at your brother, the third and ninth are here, it's not a good thing not to come to the door, you stare at them, you also know, your brother is stupid, and he doesn't know if he was sold by them!"

Yu Xiu is like this, she may not understand the overall situation, but the feelings are clear, love is love, and hate is hate.

"I see"

When He Lihong heard this, he immediately smiled, he didn't care too much, although He Lixin thought about family affection, but what should be done and what should not be done, he was clear, not as exaggerated as Yu Xiu said.

"Fifth uncle, give me the car key!" He Dongdao: "Mom is going to Wentan Temple, it's not good to take a taxi on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I'll drive them there!" ”

"Do you know how to drive?"

He Lihong was slightly surprised.

"I didn't tell you, have I been studying for years?" He Dong said in surprise, and in a blink of an eye, he remembered again, he had studied for a few years in his previous life, and hurriedly said: "This little thing, can it be difficult for me!" ”

"Okay!" He Lihong now trusts this little nephew, and it is not surprising that He Dong suddenly knows how to drive, he directly gave him the car key.

……

Wentan Temple, in Changyang District, Nanzheng, the scale is not small, and the history is long, it is rumored that in the Ming Dynasty, a local businessman because his son leaned on the champion, so he spent money to establish such a Wentan Temple.

My mother had to drag He Dong to pay a respect, that was because He Dong was going to take the college entrance examination this year, whether it was superstition or peace of mind, parents naturally hoped that their son would be well.

The college entrance examination is imminent, in Yu Xiu's heart, his son is still his son, no matter how it changes, relying on college is the most important thing.

He Dong was pulled by Yu Xiu, and paid homage to the Bodhisattvas one by one, almost didn't bow down to all the Bodhisattvas in this temple, nodded his head, and fell to the ground.

"Labor and management will never come to this hellish place again!"

When his mother and sister-in-law Xu Yan went to ask for a sign, He Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief, he hugged Xiao Chuyi and laughed on the corridor of the temple.

"On the first day of junior high school, the little dress I wore today is so beautiful, did my uncle buy it!"

He Dong teased the cute little girl vigorously, this is the princess dress he bought from Shenzhen for the first day of junior high school, pink, with her round bun face, very cute.

"It's not!"

Xiao Chuyi's glutinous little face was cool, and he refused to admit it: "This is what my mother put on for Chu Yi, it is the baby of Chu Yi, and it has nothing to do with my uncle!" ”

"Little girl, cross the river and tear down the bridge, okay, Uncle won't buy it for you next time!" He Dong hugged him and put him on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "What do I see you wearing?" ”

"Don't, uncle, the first year of junior high is wrong, uncle will buy a beautiful dress for the first year next time!"

The little girl hurriedly held He Dong's head with both hands, and shouted in a crisp voice, and the serious expression was reflected in the depths of He Dong's eyes, making him laugh.

"Uncle, look, there's a beautiful sister there, so beautiful, so beautiful!" Xiao Chuyi suddenly pointed to the center of the Daxiong Treasure Hall and shouted

"Who can be more beautiful than how to be in the first year of junior high school?" When He Dong heard this, he raised his head slightly, and when he saw it, his eyes suddenly brightened, and a delicate figure was in the center of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, worshipping the Buddha devoutly.

An otherworldly girl, dressed in a white dress, with her hands folded, her beautiful eyes closed, and her delicate and immaculate countenance flowing with a divine and pious light.

Above the Daxiong Treasure Hall, among the people coming and going, incense, talking, very lively, but at this moment, He Dong couldn't see anyone else, he was like no one beside him, his eyes were affectionate, and he looked at her figure a little stupidly.

What wish did she make in front of the Buddha?

He Dong's heart suddenly wanted to know.

After half a ring, He Dong's eyes moved slightly, and he came back to his senses, he held the little girl on his shoulder, strode over, and knelt down on the futon beside her, a faint fragrance with a trace of sandalwood, throbbing his heart.

"Why are you here?"

Xiang Xiaocao instinctively felt that there were people around her, and suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, and when she saw that it was He Dong, her nervous expression suddenly relaxed a lot, and her little face was a little ruddy.

"I accompanied my mother to worship God, and then I met you, are we very fateful!" He Dong smiled: "Xiaocao, what wish did you make?" ”

"Phew, who has a fate with you! Shameless! Xiang Xiaocao was a little shy, thinking of her wish, and He Dong, who suddenly appeared, her little face was as transparent as a tomato: "I won't sue you!" ”

"Giggles, uncle shameless!" The little girl seized the opportunity and gave He Dong a stab, and pointed her glutinous fingers at He Dong's handsome face.

"Dongzi, whose child is this, it's so cute!" Xiang Xiaocao looked at the cute little girl and asked in a low voice.

"A naughty little girl, not cute at all, just a little witch!" He Dong pushed the little girl out and introduced: "My little niece, the first year of junior high school!" ”

"Sister, you are so fragrant, so beautiful!" Chu Yi was not timid at all, a pair of small hands holding fragrant grass, looking at her with bright eyes, and reported crisply: "Uncle was quietly peeking at you just now!" ”

"First year of junior high school, you are also beautiful!"

Xiang Xiaocao was a little shy when he heard this, he held Xiao Chuyi with both hands, and he didn't dare to look at He Dong's somewhat burning eyes.
