Chapter 124: The Suburbs

Kong Qingwen was going to be transferred to the provincial capital on business, and at the end of the month, he took the car from Qitai to Dihua, and Xiuzhi also had to go back to school with the car.

The trip date is set, and the family is busy with the engagement of Zhang Luo Xiuzhi and Xiangzi. But Xiuzhi seemed to be none of her business, so she pestered Xiangzi to ride a horse and shoot a gun to practice her skills. Xiangzi also came to shake his hands and take charge of the cabinet, and he didn't care about anything.

Xiangzi has no parents and no relatives. Internal and external affairs are all represented by County Magistrate Liu.

Besides, the Kong family has long put down their words, and the engagement and marriage are all handled by the Kong family, and Xiangzi is waiting to be the groom's official.

For this reason, the county magistrate Liu and the brothers Liu Neng often say some good and blessed words about Xiangzi's life. In fact, Xiangzi knew in his heart that all this was just helping people sing a play. I can't do anything good, and I still have a reputation for a play in vain.

In the morning, Xiangzi had just wandered around twice in front of County Magistrate Liu, and saw Xiuzhi leading the horse and flashing twice at the gate of the county office. Before Xiangzi could speak, County Magistrate Liu looked down at the official document and muttered to himself: "Hurry up and hurry up, don't let people wait in a hurry." ”

Xiangzi responded with a smile, and slipped out of the county office quickly.

Under the hillside on the east side of the Thousand Buddha Cave, nearly 100 acres of cultivated land are all the products of the temple. In normal times, it is rented to local farmers. Therefore, even if the temple does not have incense, it can maintain the temple by collecting land rent.

Between the grain fields and the hillside, there is an open field, which is a good place to ride horses and shoot guns.

Xiangzi accompanied Xiuzhi to run two horses, and fired a few shots at the target made of clods of soil, and saw that Xiuzhi looked like a horse and gun.

Xiangzi grinned with satisfaction and said, "Oh, I can't imagine that Miss Kong, who has golden branches and jade leaves, can still practice guns and horses, it's really rare." ”

Xiuzhi took out her handkerchief, wiped the sweat from her face, and said with a smile: "The key is whether the master teaches well." ”

So saying, the two of them came to the elm tree on the edge of the field to cool off.

Shoko brought a bundle of hay and asked Hideshiba to sit down. Xiuzhi straddled lightly to the side and motioned for him to sit on it as well. Xiangzi twisted his body and hugged a big stone, placed it opposite Xiuzhi, grabbed a handful of grass and spread it on it, and used it as a stool.

Xiuzhi pouted at him and muttered pretending to be displeased, "What's wrong with sitting together?" ”

Xiangzi smiled indifferently at her and said, "I'm afraid of the heat." ”

Xiuzhi pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't say anything.

The two were silent for a while, and Xiuzhi asked as if she suddenly remembered something, "Have you been to Shuanghe for a few days, have you encountered anything interesting?" ”

When Xiangzi asked, he smiled mysteriously at her and said, "I really encountered a strange thing." ”

So, he painted a picture and told her the story of Chunhua and Zhao Xiaotian's wolf relationship.

Xiuzhi listened to it and said with some emotion: "The magic is that the two of them fell in love at first sight." ”

Xiangzi let out a long sigh and said, "This is the fate they formed in their previous life, and when the fate is ripe, they are destined to meet." ”

As he spoke, he sighed lightly and continued with a little melancholy: "Those two wolves, I don't know what fate they had with them in their previous life, so they gave up their lives to be matchmakers for them. ”

Xiuzhi listened and said with interest: "You said that people often talk about the word fate.

Is there really such a force in the world that is incomprehensible and uncontrollable? ”

Xiangzi smiled gently at her and said, "Buddhism says, 'Ten thousand laws are born.'" Not only is it real, but it affects every living being at every moment. Karma and karma are not happy at all, whether you believe it or not, it is real. ”

After a pause, he continued with great interest: "Let me tell you a story about fate." It is said that once upon a time there was a beautiful girl who was ravaged to death by pirates, and her body was washed up on the beach by the sea. A young man walked by, and when he saw that the girl was not covered by her clothes, he couldn't bear it, so he took off his clothes and covered the girl. After hesitating for a while, he sighed and continued on his way.

Soon after, a young man walked by, and when he saw the girl's body, lying alone on the cold sand, he was moved by compassion, so he carried the girl to a beautiful sand beam and buried it. Many years later, in the beautiful town, I don't know when, a beautiful girl appeared.

was discovered by a descendant surnamed Zheng in the town, and began to pursue it hard. After some intentional or unintentional contact, the girl gradually developed a good impression of the next life. The two have already begun to talk about marriage, but the descendants surnamed Zheng always feel that there is something missing between the two, and they always faintly feel that the girl's heart has not completely fallen on him.

One day, the girl went out into the street to buy some clothes for her wedding. Accidentally, the melon skin that was trampled under his feet slipped and almost fell. Unexpectedly, he stumbled and fell into the arms of a descendant surnamed Li.

The four eyes met, and suddenly sparks splashed. Since then, the two fell in love at first sight and were inseparable. After a painful struggle and couldn't extricate herself, the girl told the truth to the descendant surnamed Zheng without concealing it.

Fortunately, the descendants surnamed Zheng understand some of the principles of karma. After a period of soreness and pain, the girl left amicably. Soon, the girl and the descendant surnamed Li lived happily together. ”

Speaking of this, Xiangzi glanced at Xiuzhi with a fluttering gaze, and continued: "Actually, the predecessor of this beautiful girl is the girl lying on the beach. The predecessor surnamed Zheng Housheng is the one who covered the girl's body. And the predecessor surnamed Li Housheng is the one who buried the girl's body. Fate is wonderful, and it won't go wrong. ”

Seeing Xiuzhi still immersed in a poignant love story. Shoko sighed lightly and said with a smile, "If you are that girl, and I am the descendant who covers your clothes." I'm engaged to you, but the groom isn't me. The one who ends up marrying you is the one who once buried you. ”

Xiuzhi pursed her lips, and a sweet smile flashed over her white cheeks.

After being silent for a while, he suddenly looked embarrassed and muttered: "When I think of my engagement to you, I feel faintly uneasy in my heart, which is really unfair to you." Moreover, it will have an impact on your future family. These days, when my aunt is getting engaged, I have a smile on my face, but it's really not a taste in my heart. ”

When Shoko heard this, she smiled heartily and said, "Didn't you say that?" I was willing. ”

Xiuzhi looked at Xiangzi with wet eyes, and said with some emotion: "You have paid so much to me, but I can't give you anything, I really can't help it." ”

Xiangzi smiled "hehe" and said, "Actually, you don't owe me anything, I have already received a lot of things from you." ”

Xiuzhi looked at Xiangzi in surprise and asked hesitantly, "You, what did you get from me?" ”

Xiangzi laughed heartily for a while, and said, "You are gifted and intelligent and understanding, and you make me appreciate every day; You are so beautiful, well-dressed, and always pleasing to my eyes. Being with you makes me happy. And, you gave me a warm wait. Counting it up, I still earn miles. ”

Looking at Xiangzi, as if nothing had happened, Xiuzhi was happy and full of sourness, and winked at Xiangzi.

Suddenly, two lines of shiny things slid down his cheeks happily. Thin, well-defined lips squirmed a few times, but they couldn't say anything.

Shoko, pretending to point at her sarcastically, said, "Look! See! Here we go again. If you shed any more tears, it will be that I owe you. ”

When Xiuzhi heard this, Chong Xiangzi smiled poignantly, and said in a somewhat stiff voice: "You are often so intimate that people don't know what to say." ”

As he spoke, he pulled out his handkerchief and twisted it around and twitched a few times.

Xiangzi said with a distressed and concerned look: "Okay, good." I don't know what to say, so I just don't say anything. Everything is a passing cloud, don't always put it in your heart, let go of what should be put down, just put it down as soon as possible. ”

Xiuzhi turned her back, twisted her nose, and said with red eyes: "But I just can't let it go, the more relaxed you seem to care, the more panicked I feel in my heart." ”

Xiangzi saw that she looked sentimental, and suddenly, pretending to beat her chest, shouted: "Actually, I feel very uncomfortable, I don't want to live, and when I go back, I will jump into the drinking manger and drown." ”

Seeing Xiangzi's funny appearance, Xiuzhi laughed "poof", reached out and grabbed a small pebble, threw it at Xiangzi, and said with a smile: "You are so funny! Can a manger drown you? ”
