Master Fa Hui Nun hurriedly helped Hui Neng up, looked at Hui Neng carefully, and always felt that he knew that he had seen it there, but he couldn't remember it for a while, and asked, "Hui Neng, where do you live?" Your father's name? ”

Huineng said: "My family is in Xialu Village, and my father's name is Lu Xingyao. ”

"Oh, it turns out that Lord Lu is your father, I really didn't see it, but we are neighbors? Before the old poor nun left home, your father taught us to read and write! ”

Hui Neng asked this question, only then did he remember that he had not gone home for a day and a night, and Ya Niang must have died of anxiety at home, so he remembered that he wanted to go home to see his mother as soon as possible.

Li Xueru said: "You haven't recovered yet, please sit down first, and I'll ask your aunt to pick up your mother." ”

Li Lan and her mother were making supper in the kitchen, and when she heard that the boy who saved the little girl was Huineng, the son of the Lu family in the isolation house, she put down what she was doing and looked at Huineng affectionately, looked at his demeanor, and looked at the little boy sitting on the chair. For a long time, Chen was like an old woman, and kept muttering: "Really...... Really...... Like Lord Lu......"

Huineng got up from the chair and walked over, knelt in front of Chen, and said respectfully: "Auntie, it's me, I'm Xiao Huineng." ”

Chen Shi trembled and stretched out his hands, helped Huineng up, and said pityingly: "God has eyes, your mother has worked hard to raise you so old, and you are still so natural and sensible, you are really blessed with a family!" Chen looked at Xiao Huineng in front of him affectionately, his cloudy eyes were full of blurred tears, and his face that had experienced vicissitudes showed a smile that was rare in his life.

At this moment, Xiaolan also cried. Gently, Xiaolan knelt beside her mother, carefully wiping the tears for Yaniang...... At this moment, the oil lamp in the hall shines red on Huineng, Xiaolan and her mother's bodies, like a wonderful painting, frozen into a vivid photo of "like a family".

After a long time, Chen asked, "How is your mother?" When you were born, your mother visited your mother! I remember that you are two years older than Xiaolan, so you should be six years old this year, right? ”

Huineng nodded and said, "My mother has such a good memory, my mother will turn six years old in August." ”

"You see, I'm really ignorant, I'm going to call your mother......" Chen blamed himself for Hui Neng, and before he finished speaking, he hurriedly went to the isolation house to see Hui Neng and his mother.

Chen came to the isolation room panting, and saw that the door was open, and under the faint oil light flickering in the room, Huineng and his mother knelt in front of the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the hall and offered incense and prayed.

Seeing this, Chen couldn't help choking on his throat, and said in a lost voice: "Sister-in-law Lu, Hui Neng is in my house!" ”

Since the day before yesterday, Li asked Huineng to go to the field to pick vegetables, and buried himself in weaving cloth all day long, bent on weaving more cloth and selling it in the market, saving a few more money for Huineng to go to school. Who knew that Hui Neng didn't come back for most of the day, and at first, Li thought that the child was playing secretly, so he didn't pay attention to it. But when the sun was about to go down and Hui Neng didn't come back, Li was in a hurry, put down his work, and went out to find Hui Neng.

As soon as Li arrived at the field, he saw no trace of his son, and he was anxious to call Huineng loudly, but he knew that it was too late to see the ridge clearly, so he stepped on the air and fell into the paddy field, spraining his foot.

Li limped home, wanting to change his clothes and go out to look for it, but his feet did not obey the call, and his sprained feet were swollen and painful, and he was unable to move. Fortunately, her father Li Xianghe is a famous Langzhong who is dozens of miles away, and before marrying Lu Xingyao, she learned a medical skill from her father, and the family has some Chinese patent medicines that are not used in a hurry when they are free.

Li endured the pain, found a few raw herbs for bruises and sprains, and knelt in front of the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva who saved the suffering and prayed; The gate was open, waiting for his son's return. Pity the hearts of parents all over the world!

Li suddenly heard this sound in a daze, it was as if he had seen light in the dark night, and hope in despair, so he hurriedly invited Chen into the house.

After Chen explained the situation, Li crutches and hurriedly followed Chen to see Huineng.

……

Suddenly, a big yellow dog came out of the haystack and pounced on her mother and son, pulling her mother and son back from their past memories.

Li immediately squatted down. The big yellow dog ran to her mother and son, sniffed them with his nose, and identified her mother and son as from the village. The big yellow dog circled around her mother and son three more times, as if to tell her something. The big yellow dog jumped a few times, let her mother and son go, and then waged his tail back to the grass nest.

It turned out that this big yellow dog was a little yellow dog of the rich man Huang Leitian (known as Huang Batian) in the village six years ago.

Li rubbed her eyes with her hands, looked up at the night sky, and the crescent moon hung at a 45-degree angle above Xialu Village, like a bamboo pole high, for her to reach out and pick it. It also seemed that she was greeting her on behalf of the neighbors: "Lu Huineng's mother and son, who walked out from Xialu Village, welcome you back to your hometown!" ”

Finally arrived at the door of the house, Huineng took the key from his mother's hand, walked to the door, but saw a sieve-sized spider web hanging in the air on the eaves of the door, and a pair of male and female spiders were spitting silk net love in estrus on the web.

He went around the cobwebs and unlocked them with the key, and pushed the gate with all his might, and the cobwebs on the eaves of the gate shattered, and dust flew everywhere. Only two "clangs" were heard, and the lock on the door and the two iron rings collided with each other and made a crisp sound, shaking the night sky.

Huineng pushed the door in, and the door squeaked twice, and the door opened, and a burst of silver light gradually swayed from the ground of the hall to the shrine of the shrine.

On the shrine stood a spirit tablet with his father's name written on it, which caught his eye.

In front of the spirit tablet, there are incense burners, candles, sandalwood, money and matches and other offerings, all of which are covered with a thick layer of dust. This means that no one has come to the house for a long time to worship incense and burn paper.

Seeing this scene, Li burst into tears and choked up with mourning.

After mourning, stand in front of the husband's spirit card, light candles and incense, and insert them into the incense burner placed in front of the spirit card. Afterwards, she told Huineng to kneel on the futon and set the money on fire.

In the blink of an eye, the money burned in the air. At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew in the house, and there was a "rustling" sound. The burned money turned into black ash and swirled around the house, eerie and bleak, as if it had reached the underworld. Ke Huineng is not afraid, because he is worshipping his father, and his father will protect him.

Huineng knelt on the futon, faced his father's spirit card, and after kneeling three times and bowing nine times, he cried about his and his mother's experience of leaving their hometown and leaving the well in the past few years......

The sound of crying echoed through the house, wafting out through the cracks in the gate, echoing in the night sky of Shalu Village.

Huineng mother and son returned to Xialu Village late at night, and although they only walked around the village for a while, they were still discovered.

Li Xueru in the neighboring room was just about to go to bed, when suddenly there was a sound of two iron rings colliding from the isolation room, and he began to think that it was a night cat catching mice and hitting the door and hitting the iron ring, so he went to bed without paying much attention. In the haze, there was a choking and mourning sound, so he got out of bed in his clothes and saw a fire in the isolation room, thinking that the Li mother and son had returned.

Li Xueru stepped forward and knocked on the door and shouted, "Is Sister-in-law Lu back?" ”

Li Shi heard a shout outside the door, stopped choking and mourning, came out to open the door, and saw that it was Li Xueru, a neighbor in isolation, and said embarrassedly: "I haven't seen you for several years, how are you all?" Our mother and son have just returned, and they dare not disturb you when they see that it is late at night. ”

Li Xueru said: "Look at what you say there, you will see the outside world if you say it like this." Li Xueru looked at Hui Neng, who was standing beside Li, and said to Li, "This is Neng'er, right?" ”

Li replied: "It's Neng'er." ”

Huineng stepped forward, bowed to Li Xueru, and said respectfully: "Hello, sir!" ”

Li Xueru stepped forward and took Huineng's hand lovingly, and said with emotion: "I can't imagine that Lu Guanren's talents have grown so tall, you came home so late, and you haven't eaten yet, right?" ”

"Hmm." Huineng nodded honestly.

"Let's get me something to eat first." Li Xueru said with concern.

Li Shi was embarrassed: "Why am I embarrassed to disturb your house in the middle of the night!" ”

Li Xueru said loudly: "Don't see outside, let's go." ”

The Li family saw Li Xueru's hospitality, and the two families were neighbors, and they usually shared half of the good things they got for everyone to enjoy, and Neng'er had won the love of their whole family since she was a child, so she was embarrassed to push it back.

The neighbors of Xialu Village heard that Huineng mother and son had returned after a long absence, and they all came to say hello.

Huineng's mother and son successfully returned to Xialu Village after many years of absence. Kiss or not, hometown people; Ripe or not, hometown soil. With the help and care of the villagers, they quickly settled down.
