Chapter 100: For Whom
If in the past, believers came to offer an everlasting lamp to their deceased relatives, in addition to what Yu Panxi had already done, they had to add lamp oil and cut the wick themselves.
And when it comes to the latter, it is completely presiding over himself and doing it himself.
The monk who led the way for Yu Panxi stood silent, but he also saw everything in his eyes.
Only he knows that at least in the past few decades, there are not many people who can let the host personally light the lamp. They have a variety of identities, from princes and ministers to ordinary people. But everybody is very religious about it.
Yu Panxi didn't know about this. But watching the everlasting lamp carved with lotus flowers being lit, I feel that my heart is also a wish.
The faint and bright light flickered and flickered, falling into the eyes of Xiao Chumo, who was standing at the door of the Buddhist hall, and seemed to ignite his heart as well.
The conversation between Yu Panxi and the host was not deliberately concealed, and Xiao Chumo stood not far away, naturally hearing it clearly.
The everlasting lamps in the Buddhist hall have always been offered by believers to their deceased relatives and friends.
Yu Panxi's deceased relatives are only her mother, and if she wants to provide a lamp to her mother, there is no need to use other excuses as a cover-up. Xiao Chumo already had an answer in his heart, so he sent him to verify it in person.
After Yu Panxi and the host left this Buddhist hall together, Xiao Chumo and Nian Hui glanced at each other, raised their feet and walked in.
Fortunately, although this is specially used to worship the ever-bright lamps lit by believers, it is not a forbidden place for Buddhism, and there are two monks left here to guard these lamps on weekdays. In addition, pilgrims occasionally come to visit, so no one stopped them.
Xiao Chumo took Nian Hui and walked to the place where Fang Cai Yu Panxi was standing.
On the altar in front of him, there were at least dozens of ever-bright lanterns. And the outermost one was personally ordered by the host of Fangcai Tai'an Temple for Yu Panxi.
Next to each lamp, there is a wooden sign with the name of the person to whom it is offered. so that these spirits in heaven may know to whom this lamp belongs.
Xiao Chumo picked up the sign written by Yu Panxi himself, the handwriting on it was very familiar, and what made him feel even more familiar was the name that caught his eye.
Wei Qintan.
It was the name of his biological mother, who had been dead for many years and was rarely mentioned.
While Xiao Chumo's heart was shocked, he couldn't help but feel a little in a trance, how long had he not seen this name?
When her mother was alive, the people of the Ming Kingdom Houfu called her Mrs., and her father rarely called her by her maiden name; And after she passed away, Luo's got in the way, and she became a topic that everyone in the Hou Mansion avoided.
Pinching the small wooden card in his hand, Xiao Chumo finally came back to his senses for a while. While I was deeply moved in my heart, I suddenly remembered that there was a young man beside me.
"But you see them all? That's the truth of the matter. ”
He handed the wooden card in his hand to Nian Hui, although his heart became warm because of Yu Panxi's actions, his voice was still a little cold.
"As for the man who talked to Pan Xi that Xiao Feng said in his mouth before, I will naturally ask her again, and I will explain it clearly to my father when I go back."
"Yes."
"I'm going to pick up Panxi and go home now, do you want to stay together?"
Xiao Chumo said, and his eyes fell on Nian Hui's body, with the same scrutiny as before departure.
The latter was not as frightened by him as Luo Mei, and he didn't seem to be able to hear the displeasure in his words. But he still replied: "No need, my subordinates will go back to the house, and I will definitely return everything that the young lady did for the lady to the marquis." ”
After speaking, he respectfully saluted Xiao Chumo and turned around and left directly.
In fact, there was no need for Xiao Chumo to hand him the wooden plaque with his name written on it, he was standing beside the former, and he could already see it clearly.
Before that, he had not come into contact with the young lady. As Xiao He's cronies, he basically never even went to the backyard of the Ming State Houfu.
However, in the past few days, he and Xiao Chumo have been hiding in the dark and have been observing Yu Panxi's every move. He also saw that this Yu Panxi was obviously different from the pretending second lady in the house. This can be seen from the pious attitude of her reciting Buddhist scriptures.
In this way, the so-called news that Luo Mei brought before, which Xiao Fengwan saw with his own eyes, was not so credible.
After Nianhui left, Xiao Chumo no longer stayed in the Buddhist hall for a long time. After putting back the wooden plaque with Wei's name written on it, he walked towards the room where Yu Panxi was temporarily staying.
At this time, Yu Panxi didn't know what happened after she left the Buddhist hall, and she was telling Yinling to pack up her things and prepare to go back to Kyoto.
Although the latter didn't know why she suddenly had to go back, the novelty of just arriving at Tai'an Temple had long since passed, and Yu Panxi stayed in the meditation room all day long, and no one could talk to her. She misses that girl so much now!
Seeing Yinling happily packing up her things, and her movements were also fast, Yu Panxi couldn't help but feel a little funny. I was about to laugh at her, but suddenly there was a knock at the door.
Yu Panxi glanced back, and saw that Yinling seemed to be in a hurry, and it happened that she was fine, so she walked over and opened the door by herself.
However, she never expected that after the door opened, what greeted her would be the handsome face she had been thinking about for a long time, but she had not seen for several days.
"You...... What are you doing here? ”
Yu Panxi looked at him and was stunned for a moment. As if murmuring, he asked with surprise and doubt.
And the man standing in front of him didn't have time to say anything after she asked this. Directly opened his arms, hugged her into his arms, and hugged her tightly, as if to rub her into his own blood.
Yu Panxi was firmly held in his arms, and he didn't react to what was going on at all.
Didn't this man avoid her until she left Kyoto?
Why didn't you see her for a few days, but suddenly appeared in front of her and hugged her into your arms?
The most important thing is that when she came out of the Xiao Mansion, she used the excuse of going back to her parents' house. Even if Xiao Chumo found something wrong, he shouldn't have known that she had arrived here.
All kinds of questions have sprung up in Yu Panxi's heart.
The Buddha Gate Forbidden Land should not have such a rude act. Fortunately, Xiao Chumo was only too moved for a while, so he was a little out of proportion.
After he finally calmed down, he saw that the silver bell in the room was still packing his things, so he simply pulled Yu Panxi and went to another place.
Just like a long time ago, when Xiao Chumo was joking with Yu Panxi, Yu Panxi replied to him, and he didn't see him for a day. He has been avoiding her all these days, and his heart is also very uncomfortable, and he has a lot to say to her.
