Zhou Shaojin was worried that there was no way to talk to Cheng Chi, so Cheng Chi went to Hanbi Mountain House to meet Mrs. Guo, and Zhou Shaojin was overjoyed.

Wouldn't she have the opportunity to meet Uncle Chi in the Hanbi Mountain House in the future?

Zhou Shaojin habitually stood up, ready to avoid. But as soon as she stood up, she felt that something was wrong. If she avoided Uncle Chi every time he came, how could she talk to Uncle Chi? But if you don't avoid it, it's a little out of line.

She hesitated for a moment.

Old Madam Guo didn't think about it so much, she hurriedly instructed Jade: "Hurry up and invite the fourth master in!" ”

Jade smiled and said yes and walked out of the banquet room.

Old Madam Guo let out a long sigh, only to find that Zhou Shaojin was still standing next to her.

She originally wanted Zhou Shaojin to avoid it, but seeing Zhou Shaojin's somewhat overwhelmed look, she decided to let Zhou Shaojin stay - after all, she was only a twelve-year-old child, and when her elders suddenly visited, she didn't know how to do it clearly, and it was normal for her to not know how to do it. As for the defense of men and women, the two are not only different in generation, but also in age, and they are relatives, so they don't have to be so restrained.

"Sit down and talk!" Mrs. Guo greeted Zhou Shaojin and said with a smile, "It's no one else who came, it's your Uncle Chi." The four masters of the long house. ”

Zhou Shaojin breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and sat down gently.

If Mrs. Guo asked her to avoid ...... There's really no good way for her to stay.

After a while, Jade opened the curtain and Cheng Chi walked in.

He is wearing a moon-white fine gewley preaching robe today, green bamboo hairpins, stone blue muslin blessing shoes, and one hundred and eight Buddha beads with red sandalwood hanging on his hands.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but stand up.

Cheng Chi smiled at her and stepped forward to salute Mrs. Guo.

Old Madam Guo didn't wait for him to bend down, so she stepped forward and carried Cheng Chi, and said softly: "It's getting hotter and hotter these days, have you eaten well?" Sleep soundly? ”

Cheng Chi was not reluctant, he stood up and said with a smile: "I have green trees over there, and it is close to Qingxi Lake, which is very cool. But my mother, who goes to the lotus pond in the morning and evening, to escape the heat and to strengthen my body. He said, thought for a moment, and said, "Why don't you go and stay in the algae garden for a few days?" The lake and mountains over there are even better views. ”

"No, you don't." Mrs. Guo smiled and sat at the round table with Cheng Chi, "It's too troublesome to go out." I'm used to living here, I can find anything in the corner, but when I get there, I can only settle for it, and I still live in Hanbi Mountain House. However, as you said, you should go to the edge of the lotus pond in the morning and evening. ”

The little maid brought refreshments up.

Zhou Shaojin cleverly helped set up the snacks.

Cheng Chi smiled at her again.

When Mrs. Guo saw it, she remembered it and said with a smile: "When people get old, this memory is getting worse and worse." This is the second lady of the four-room Zhou family, and I invited me to copy the scriptures. ”

As if he didn't know him, Zhou Shaojin bent his knees and squatted down to make a blessing.

Cheng Chi nodded with a smile and said, "It's a guest here, my mother and I are talking here, so I don't need you to serve." ”

Yes!

It's like a bolt from the blue.

Zhou Shaojin opened his mouth and stammered.

She thought that the resistance she wanted to talk to Cheng Chi came from Mrs. Guo or secular etiquette, but she didn't expect Cheng Chi to avoid her.

So how can she talk to Cheng Chi?

Zhou Shaojin didn't react for a long time.

Cheng Chi looked at her dumbfounded, like an abandoned puppy with big black and moist eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

The first time he asked her to pretend to be a maid to pour tea for herself in order to relieve her, and the second time he watched her scurry around like a little mouse in fear, and then jokingly told her to pour tea for herself like she did when they met for the first time...... I didn't expect this little girl to take it seriously, and when she saw that she was serious, she really took it seriously.

He smiled, his tone becoming softer: "Go down!" There are maids to serve here. Go and copy the scriptures! ”

Zhou Shaojin's face suddenly turned red.

was actually picked up like this...... She still has the face to stay here!

Zhou Shaojin hurriedly saluted and walked out of Mrs. Guo's banquet room, but her eyes couldn't help but be a little moist.

As Cheng Ji often nags: It's so embarrassing!

Jade didn't pay attention at first, but when she saw her come out, she hurriedly came over and asked in a low voice, "What are the old lady and the fourth master doing?" Do you need us to go in and add some tea? Or is there something else that commands you? ”

"Nope." Zhou Shaojin blinked, trying to restore his original clarity, "The old lady and the fourth master have something to say...... I just came out! ”

"That's good." Jade smiled, but she couldn't help but be suspicious in her heart.

The second lady's eyes were wet, as if she was about to cry, could it be that she was reprimanded by Mrs. Guo or the fourth master?

She and Zhou Shaojin were not as close as Biyu, pretending not to see it, and continued to stand outside the curtain with their ears pricked up and concerned about the movements in the room.

Zhou Shaojin went to the Buddha Hall.

Shi Xiang is grinding ink, and Xiao Tan is lighting Ai Xiang.

Zhou Shaojin copied a page, and his mood gradually calmed down.

Uncle Chi's behavior just now was extremely ordinary, but he had never bowed his head and begged someone, and he was suddenly rejected, so he couldn't stand it...... If it is a peaceful and prosperous world, when the wind is smooth, it is nothing, and it is a big deal to ignore Uncle Chi from now on. But ten years later, the Cheng family will be wiped out, and when he was reborn, he also vowed to change the fate of his previous life. Then you can't be like before, and you can't stand the slightest grievance. Think about my sister, such an outstanding person, when she first married into the Liao family, she was also a little unhappy, but later, the brother-in-law slowly learned what kind of person her sister was, and she respected her very much, and her sister was also recognized by the Liao family and integrated into the Liao family. I should learn from my sister, and when I encounter something, I can't just think about my feelings, but also think about what I want.

The book also says that when the heavens descend on the people, they must first work their muscles and bones and suffer their minds...... I should be a test of heaven for myself, otherwise how could I let myself be reborn?

Thinking about it like this, Zhou Shaojin's mood improved again, and he felt that the future might not be as bleak as he thought.

She called out to Xiaotan and quietly instructed her, "Can you help me go and see if Uncle Chi is gone?" What did he come to the old lady for? ”

Xiao Tan was stunned, struggling, and didn't dare to inquire.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help sighing.

After all, it was a person from Hanbi Mountain House, so it was indeed a little difficult for her to do this. But except for Xiao Tan, it is even more inappropriate for others to inquire.

She laughed, "I'm just curious." You don't have to ask clearly. You go and say hello. I thought that I would stay in the Hanbi Mountain House for three or four months at most, but the old lady said that this sutra was to be enshrined in Putuo Mountain, and it might take me with me, so I wanted to copy a copy of the "Amitabha Buddha" sutra for myself to enshrine to the Bodhisattva, and I wanted to talk to the old lady about it, I knew about the upper room, and I also wanted to find an opportunity to mention it to the old lady. ”

After all, Zhou Shaojin entered the Hanbi Mountain House under the guise of copying scriptures for Mrs. Guo.

And when people go to a strange place, they always like to inquire about the things around them, and it is not necessarily to talk about the long and short, but more to make people feel at ease.

Xiaotan understood Zhou Shaojin's words, responded with a smile, and went to the upper room.

Shi Xiangqi said: "Miss, since you want to use it yourself, you can go back and copy it again!" In the fall, the weather turns cooler, and it is very cold to go back and forth like this every day. ”

Zhou Shaojin said with a smile: "It is a book dedicated to the Buddha, and the appearance is also very important - the red ribbed paper used here in the Hanbi Mountain House, I asked, this paper is ten years ago, and the current paper can not find the same texture as this one." Wouldn't it be better if Mrs. Guo agreed to me copying a scripture on this paper? When the time comes, I will return some more paper to Mrs. Guo. ”

Shi Xiang felt that Zhou Shaojin's words were a bit far-fetched, but when she saw that Zhou Shaojin looked like she had made up her mind, she could only swallow the words of consolation.

After about two sticks of incense, Xiao Tan came back and replied: "The old lady called the fourth master over, originally wanted to ask about the Gu family's secret marriage, but I didn't expect you to know about the marriage, so the old lady and the fourth master talked about the parents, and played chess with the fourth master." Now the chess game is not over! The old lady left the four old men for dinner. ”

Playing chess again......

Zhou Shaojin didn't feel strange anymore.

Maybe the relationship between mother and son is to play chess.

It's like my grandmother and uncle, every time I talk about the chores at home...

She smiled and thanked Xiao Tan, and copied the scriptures with peace of mind.

Shi Xiang and Xiao Tan sat at the door of the Buddha hall and began to divide the line with the light outside.

When he went back in the evening, Zhou Shaojin still had to do some needlework.

Seeing the sun set and a cloud burned in the west, they were already on their way home at this time in the past, but today, Zhou Shaojin has not stopped writing.

Shi Xiang's eyes were already a little struggling, so she had to pack up the thread lightly.

Jade came over: "The old lady said, let the second lady have dinner and then go back." ”

In the past, Zhou Shaojin would feel uncomfortable and go back to the fourth room for dinner.

Shi Xiang was about to help Zhou Shaojin politely refuse, but who knew that Zhou Shaojin smiled and said "Okay", and asked Jade, "I don't know if there are any other things to pay attention to in the dinner here?" ”

Jade obviously didn't expect Zhou Shaojin to agree, and was stunned before smiling: "There's nothing particular about it, it's just that the old lady doesn't eat meat, and the fourth master doesn't eat fish." ”

One doesn't eat meat, the other doesn't eat fish...... Isn't that exquisite?

Zhou Shaojin said "hey" and asked Jade to send someone back to talk to the fourth room, so as not to wait for dinner over there.

Jade smiled and walked out of the Buddha hall.

Shi Xiang whispered: "Let's stay in the Hanbi Mountain House for dinner like this, okay?" ”

In the past, it was Zhou Shaojin who said that it was not very good.

"It's not good to stay for dinner a lot." Zhou Shaojin said calmly, "Don't worry once in a while." He added, "It's not good to always reject the old lady." ”

It makes sense for Shi Xiang to think about it.

helped Zhou Shaojin clean up the pen and ink, washed his hands and face, simply straightened his hair and clothes, and followed him to the upper room.
