Chapter 76: Debut (The first is to ask for a pink ticket!) )
Not long after returning home, it was the day when Situ Yingsleeve met the master in his last life.
In order to welcome the arrival of the master, Situ Yingsleeve went to wait for Zirong from early in the morning.
She asked Cai Qin, Cai Sang, Xiao Tao, and Xiao Xing to take a good look at Situ Chenlei, and brought some food by herself, planning to spend it until dawn in Zirong Zhai.
She remembered that in her previous life, when she came out of the small Buddha hall of Zirongzhai in the middle of the night after chanting the scriptures, she saw the master dressed in white and wearing a silver-white mask on the courtyard wall of Zirongzhai......
"Miss, do you really want to stay here?" Cai Qin hesitated and looked around Zirongzhai.
There was no one living here for the time being, so it was just roughly cleaned.
The tables and chairs were all of the most ordinary pine, and the curtains were very ordinary coarse woven homespun cloth, gray in color, just like the mood of her previous life.
Situ Yingsleeve sat down at the table with a smile, spread out a book in front of him, and said, "It's okay, I'm quiet and quiet here." You leave me alone, help me watch Xiao Lei. ”
Cai Qin wanted to say something, but when she saw that Situ Yingsleeve had already lowered her head to read the book, she had to keep silent, bow her head and salute, and turn around and go out.
Situ Yingsleeve was absent-minded all day.
Although there was a book in front of him, he didn't read a word.
Her mind was full of what it was like to see Master for the first time.
Finally, when it got dark, the inner courtyard of Situ Mansion took the lamp.
Situ Yingsleeve went to the bathroom to wash up, changed into a smoke-blue shirt, loosely pulled up a multi-treasure bun, inserted a simple mutton fat jade lotus hairpin, and lightly applied a layer of nourishing powder on his face.
Sitting down at the table, she poured herself a glass of wine with a jasper crane beak and ate a few light side dishes.
After eating, I looked up and saw that there seemed to be a night fog in the courtyard. It's as indecisive as a flying flotsam.
In the distance, I don't know who is feasting, there is the sound of the sheng flute and flute coming along the night air, and there seems to be a singer with a graceful and elegant tune.
They are all landscapes that she ignored in the previous life.
Situ Yingsleeves sat quietly at the table, supporting her with one hand, staring at the small courtyard wall of Zirongzhai without blinking, for fear of missing the appearance of the master.
At night, the sky was full of stars, and a faint moonlight spread into the courtyard. Cover the erratic night air with a light veil.
The sand of the bell leak poured down in threads. It's like time flies.
From the beginning of the new month, wait until the moon is in the middle of the sky, and then wait until the moon is inclined to the west building. The courtyard wall of Zirongzhai has always been silent, without the slightest trace of human figures.
A cold night breeze blew, carrying water vapor, soaking Situ Ying's sleeves and shivering.
She stood up as if she had just woken up from a dream. It's time to see that it's time to leak more......
She remembers very well, from the previous life. When she was a child, she left the small Buddha hall and came to the courtyard, where she saw the figure of the master on the courtyard wall......
This time, she had been staring at that place since daylight. But so far nothing has been found.
Situ Ying put on his robe and slowly walked out of the door to the center of the small courtyard.
On the west side of the courtyard are several tall woody trees.
Because this autumn tiger is very powerful. The woods are still in full bloom.
The trees are full of small golden flowers, mixed with the unique elegant fragrance of the wood. Smell drunk.
In the distance, the sheng song has dispersed, the small courtyard is silent, and there is a small golden wooden flower on the ground, like a carpet of flowers.
Situ Yingsleeves stood motionless under the cloister at the door, staring at the courtyard wall until the sky was white and ushered in a new day, she admitted with some disappointment: Master, did not come......
At dawn, she left Zirongzhai, returned to the Zhigui Hall, plunged into her room, and fell asleep.
Cai Qin and Cai Sang didn't dare to disturb her.
Situ Chenlei didn't see Situ Yingsleeves for a day and a night, and he really missed her.
Seeing her come back, although he didn't talk to him, he was still happy, holding Xiao Meow at the head of Situ Ying's bed, not leaving an inch.
Situ Yingsleeve slept until night, and when she woke up, she saw Situ Chenlei and Xiao Meow looking at her with two pairs of bright eyes.
Seeing these two pairs of clear eyes, the gloom in Situ Ying's heart disappeared.
"Xiao Lei ......" Situ Yingsleeve stretched out his hand and pinched Situ Chenlei's little face.
Situ Chenlei looked at her with a smile, and brought his face closer to let her pinch ......
After getting up from the bed, Situ Yingsleeve cheered up, carefully recalled the bits and pieces of these days, compared with the situation in her previous life, and finally decided that it was probably because she did not decorate the small Buddha hall.
If Master is to appear, it should be the same as in the previous life, right?
In the previous life, the master appeared because she was immersed in the grief of losing her younger brother and could not extricate herself, and prayed day and night in the small Buddha hall.
In this life, she doesn't need to recite scriptures to her younger brother anymore, but it's always okay to chant scriptures and pray for blessings, right?
So shouldn't she still set up a small Buddha hall?
After making this decision, Situ Yingsleeve began to move the things he used to decorate the small Buddha hall in his previous life to Zirongzhai one after another.
"Where are the white jade Guanyin, the bronze incense burner, the red sandalwood offering, and the Canaan incense from the Western Regions?" Situ Yingsleeve muttered while searching around, but he couldn't find these key things.
"Miss, what are you looking for these things?" Cai Sang asked curiously, "These are all things used in the temple......
"I'm going to set up a small Buddha hall, and I can use all these things." Situ Yingsleeve searched in the room, "I remember that I used to have them, why can't I find them?" ”
Situ Yingsleeve rubbed his forehead.
I don't know if it's because the days have passed for a long time, and I can't remember some things.
"Mother, my sister is going to set up a small Buddha hall in Zirongzhai, you can persuade her." Situ Darkincense lives in the Zhigui Hall with Situ Yingsleeve and Situ Chenlei, what Situ Yingsleeve wants to do, Situ Darkincense sees it in his eyes and is very worried.
Zhang frowned and asked, "What kind of Buddhist hall is arranged in a good little girl's house?" She's not afraid of taboos...... No, I've got to tell her ......."
Zhang came to Zhigui Hall with Situ Dark Incense, and said to Situ Yingsleeve: "Sleeve sleeve, it's good, what are you doing in the small Buddha Hall?" ”
Situ Yingsleeve straightened up from the front of the cage and glanced at Zhang with a smile. The wind swept over Situ's dark incense face.
Situ Darkincense shrank behind Zhang with some fear, not daring to look directly into Situ Ying's eyes.
When Zhang saw it, he smiled and said, "Don't blame Dark Xiang, she told me because she was worried about you." You don't know at a young age, I'm a mother, and it's wrong for me not to remind you. You know. The family of a girl who is not married. It is a big taboo to set up a small Buddha hall at home......"
Situ Yingsleeve raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Taboo? What's the taboo? ”
She rolled her eyes. Said: "I am building a Buddhist hall for my dead mother to pray for blessings, can't I?" When people outside find out, they will only say that I am filial, right? ”
Hearing Situ Yingsleeve mention his own mother, Zhang's was not good at persuading him anymore.
Zhang nodded. simply said: "Of course it's okay to pray for your own mother." By the way, your mother also had a small Buddhist hall in Situ Mansion in Jiangnan. I put all the things in a cage and brought them to the capital. If you want to use it, I'll let Chunzhu find it for you. ”
Situ Ying's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Thank you mother." Don't bother Sister Chunzhu. I'll just ask Cai Qin and Cai Sang to carry it over. ”
Chunzhu is the eldest maid of the Zhang family.
Zhang Shi responded, and took Cai Qin and Cai Sang back to carry the cage.
Situ Yingsleeve asked them to go straight to Zirongzhai.
When the cage came, Situ Yingsleeve opened it and took a look. Only then did I find out that in the previous life, she arranged the things in the small Buddha hall, such as white jade Guanyin, bronze incense burner, small rosewood offerings, and Canaan incense from the Western Regions. They are all relics of her mother's relatives.
Zhang followed over to take a look, helped Situ Yingsleeve arrange these things, and said, "...... Your mother set up a small Buddha hall at home, and she would go in on the fifteenth day of the new year to chant and pray for blessings. It's a pity that she has done good deeds and accumulated blessings all her life, but she went so early. ”
Situ Yingsleeve was still young at the time, and she didn't remember that her mother had such a time.
Sitting in the small Buddha hall that she had arranged exactly the same as in her previous life, her mood was different from before.
It was something her mother had used, the shiny wooden fish, and the futon with a shallow knee mark in the middle, all of which reminded her of her mother's taste......
Who said that the good deeds of the mother in the previous life were useless?
Situ Yingsleeve silently thought, she was able to be reborn in the world, isn't it the afterglow left by her mother's good deeds and blessings, benefiting her children and grandchildren?
……
After waiting for another ten days and ten nights in the small Buddha hall of Zirongzhai, the Master still did not show up.
Situ Yingsleeve finally accepted this fact very reluctantly, that is, in this life, Master may not appear......
That's right, too.
Thinking about it carefully, what the master did in the previous life seemed to be preparing for her rebirth......
Now that she has lived a new life, Master's goal has been achieved, right?
……
"Put it all away." Situ Yingsleeve took one last look at this small Buddha hall and commanded lightly.
It's time to wake up from her dream.
The events of the previous life are in the past and will not be repeated.
She has to rely on herself to solve the mysteries in her life and protect her younger brother from growing up safely.
……
Back at Zhiguitang, her stepmother Zhang was also waiting for her there.
Looking at Situ Ying's haggard face, Zhang was also very distressed, and said, "You kid, just pray for blessings, how can you make yourself like this?" Let's make it up......" he said, quietly slipping the letter back into his sleeve pocket.
Situ Yingsleeve had already seen it, and asked with a casual smile, "Mother, is my father writing again?" ”
Zhang had no choice but to take out the letter again, and said with a wry smile: "I can't hide anything from you." ”
"What's wrong?" Situ Yingsleeve took the letter and hurriedly read it aside.
"Your dad is in trouble. The other party took a fancy to the mountainous area where we were drying salt, and when they couldn't buy or sell us, they went to build an island in the nearby sea, and burned dead leaves and guano every day, making that place a miasma, and there was no way to continue drying salt. Zhang said with a headache, "The shopkeeper Lu said, if it doesn't work, you don't want that piece of mountain, but your father refuses." ”
It was exactly the same as the previous one, but two years earlier.
Two years after the last life, Situ Yingsleeve won a big victory in the negotiation with this group of people, so as to get the expectation of the treasurer of Lu Da and agree that she should take charge of the Situ family's property......
Situ Yingsleeve threw the letter on the table with a smile and said, "What is a great thing to say, I have a way." Mother, write a letter to ask Daddy to come back. I'll talk about it after the New Year. ”
Seeing that Situ Ying's sleeves were calm and relaxed, she didn't take it seriously at all, and only said that she was relying on the power of her grandfather Shen family, and said with a smile: "It's good if you are willing to come forward." Then I'll write to your dad and ask him to come back for the New Year, and I'll talk about it next year. ”
Situ Ying responded with his sleeves and went to the inside to freshen up.
As a result, after five or six days, Situ Jianren did not come back, but sent an urgent message from Leizhou, asking Situ Yingsleeve to rush to Leizhou immediately to help them deal with those strongmen.
“…… These people are the newly rising Lianghuai Salt Gang, and the gang leader Shaoyan is eager to make meritorious contributions, so he deliberately uses the Situ family to open a knife and sacrifice the flag. Sleeves, you beg your grandfather's family, send someone to come to Leizhou with you, and fight against the strong enemy with your father! ”
