Chapter 44: The Lottery
Chapter 44: Lottery
Everyone didn't expect that there would be this luck before leaving, and they were all smiling.
The old lady was even more happy, she was so old, she had participated in the banquet many times before, and some people often heard that whoever saw Master Hongyi, others must look up to her, and if anyone can eat the vegetarian food made by Master Hongyi, it is not a high look, it is worship. According to rumors, there are less than ten people in the capital who have eaten the dishes made by Master Hongyi.
And this time, I heard that the meaning of Yeji seemed to be that Master Hongyi had the meaning of preparing food, and he Liu Mansion came to eight masters this time, and Master Hongyi did not say that the people next to him were not allowed, so that Liu Mansion was afraid that it would be the first in Beijing.
If it was really happy, the time passed faster, and in a blink of an eye, it was already a quiet courtyard. It's just that it doesn't have a name, and if you don't know it, you will think it's a pile of miscellaneous things.
The host of Ye Ji stood outside and said inside, "Uncle Shi, the people from the Liu Mansion are here. ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a "squeak" and the door opened. A spirited white-bearded old man came out in a plain robe.
"Amitabha, good uncle."
Master Hongyi nodded: "Amitabha." ”
"Donors, please come in." Master Hongyi invited everyone.
The old lady said, "Master, please." ”
Ye Ji said at this time: "The old man has taken a step in advance. ”
Master Hongyi walked straight to the courtyard without saying a word, and naturally no one had anyone to speak, but Yeji left his words as if he was used to it. Everyone immediately followed Hongyi into the courtyard.
Although the yard is simple, the layout is generous and elegantly arranged.
When he arrived at a house, Hongyi said to the people of Liu's house, "Please take a seat." ”
While everyone was sitting, Hong began to make tea, and when the old lady sat down, the tea had already been brought to the old lady.
Because Master Hongyi invited him, it was not good to bring in the slaves and maids again, and everyone in the house except for Master Hongyi, the master, was the master.
The old lady was a little frightened when she saw that the tea was made by Master Hongyi himself, and the old lady didn't know why there was no special novice who poured water, so she had to say: "I'm tired of the master, let's come by ourselves." ”
After hearing this, Master Hongyi immediately put down the teapot in his hand. Seeing this, Liu Qingsu hurriedly lifted it up and poured it for everyone with his own hands.
Master Hongyi gave Liu Qingsu a meaningful look at Liu Qingsu, who was pouring water.
The old lady saw that Master Hongyi didn't say anything more and asked: "It's really a blessing to see Master Hongyi today, I don't know if the master can ......."
Master Hongyi said: "The old lady is strict, and it is said that your Liu Mansion has a relationship with Buddhism. ”
As soon as Master Hongyi's words came out, the expressions on everyone's faces were different, what does it mean that Liu Fu is destined for Buddhism? Although there are many people in the big family who believe in Buddhism, if they are related to Buddhism, not many people are willing. Which house would like to have someone in their own house, the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha I, but whenever there is such a situation, something bad must have happened.
Master Hongyi smiled when he saw everyone's heavy faces and said, "You don't need to worry too much, blessings and misfortunes have depended on each other since ancient times. And according to Lao Gao, if the Liu Mansion is blessed by blessings, there will be no big problems. ”
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
After a while, Master Hongyi said, "It's the young lady of your mansion who just poured the water." ”
The old lady said in surprise: "Exactly, I don't know where the master knows?" ”
Although the old lady had such a conscience, she had a little more respect for Master Hongyi.
"Lao Wei Shi just saw the "Dizang Bodhisattva Sutra" copied by this young lady, so he learned that Liu Fu came today. Miss Guifu writes well, and she also has a lot of wisdom. ”
After Master Hongyi finished speaking, everyone looked at Liu Qingsu, but Liu Qingsu said unhurriedly: "Thank you Master for your praise." ”
Master Hongyi then took out a lottery holder out of nowhere, "For Miss's scripture, Miss can draw a lot." ”
I saw Master Hongyi holding it back and forth in his hand, but he didn't see the bamboo stick falling, and finally took the stick holder to Liu Qingsu safely. said to Liu Qingsu: "Please draw the lot for this young lady." ”
Liu Qingsu picked up the stick holder and shook it a few times, but two sticks came out.
Liu Qingsu was a little strange, thinking that he didn't shake it well, and he shook it again a few times, but two signs fell out every time.
Everyone was a little strange, but Master Hongyi picked up the stick holder without saying anything and said, "A few shake it and try it." ”
Everyone had doubts in their hearts, so the old lady took the lead in shaking it, and after a while, a stick fell, and Hongyi picked it up and took a look: the pine and cypress are always there, and the peach falls and folds the laurel.
This is a very common signature, but for an old man this is a good sign, pine and cypress evergreen means longevity, for the family although there is a wave of peach fall, after all, the glory will rise again.
Master Hongyi handed this signature to the old lady, and the old lady was curious why Hongyi didn't unsign it, but when the old lady read the signature, she smiled heartily, no wonder.
After that, everyone drew lots in turn, and they were all good, except for Yu's signature, which didn't seem to be very good. But all seven people shook a lot.
Then Liu Qingsu shook the lottery holder again, but the two sticks still fell at the same time, counting this time, Liu Qingsu has shaken two sticks at the same time five times in a row.
If you say that although everyone had doubts in their hearts just now, they must still have the same thoughts as Liu Qingsu in their hearts, thinking that it may be that Liu Qingsu did not shake well, and now everyone is left with only slow doubts.
Master Hongyi was surprised but also had an expected calmness.
Master Hongyi picked up the signature and glanced at it, and said to Liu Qingsu: "Amitabha." Then put the slip back in the holder.
Everyone was puzzled when they saw this, and the old lady said, "This? ”
Master Hongyi said: "The female benefactor's signature is signed, but this signature involves heavenly opportunities and cannot be known to everyone. ”
The old lady nodded, curious but not much.
However, Liu Qingsu felt that this master Hongyi was becoming more and more nervous, although it was already incredible that he had relived his life, but what was the matter? And Master Hongyi himself can see it, why can't he, the person who won the lottery, watch it?
Master Hongyi picked up the sticker and said, "Donors, please, the old man will prepare some food." After speaking, he pointed to Liu Qingsu: "There are many people today, I am afraid that this female donor will be helped." ”
Liu Qingsu is more strange, although he knew a little food in his last life, but most of the time he did it was the help of the people below, and now Master Hongyi wants to help himself, can he do it?
But Master Hongyi's opening seemed to be a foregone conclusion, and Liu Qingsu had to go out with Master Hongyi.
When I arrived at the kitchen, Yiqiē was in order, although Master Hongyi had just returned, but Yiqiē had everything.
Master Hongyi arrived in the kitchen and shuttled back and forth in the kitchen, preparing the dishes quickly and well, Liu Qingsu couldn't intervene at all, so he had to stand aside in a daze.
