Chapter 34: Collect Your Heart

Zhao Ta smiled and circled around a few monks, they didn't know what this kid wanted to do, but at this time they also understood that the little guy had a very high status in the house, and it was up to him whether he could bargain today, Zhao Ta pulled the monk's robe, touched the Buddha statue he was holding and said: "Look at you, you are wearing new clothes, and the Buddha statue in your hand is worth hundreds of yuan, but you don't produce, you don't farm, where do these come from?" It can't be stolen. ”

"How can a monk commit the vow of stealing, these are all offerings from the believers!" The monk said immediately.

"Oh, that's a nice thing to say, it's not that you deceived you with rhetoric, who will give it to you for no reason, it's just that the thief has turned into a secret robbery!" Zhao Ta pointed to the people who were beating night beards and said, "Look at those people! They work all year round, but they have no clothes and no food, and they have to change the law to beg for some money for their lives. You are not as good as them, obviously the emperor has rewarded Terada to support you, but you are not greedy enough, and you have to change the law to collect money, your skin is really not ordinarily thick, and the snow-white rice is too little for you, do you want money to raise a concubine outside. ”

"Amitabha, if the little donor does not respect the Buddha and the monks, he will be punished!" The monk's white face turned red, and he said angrily.

"Hehe, you shave your head and call the monks, I want to comment with you in front of the Buddha, the monks quit greed, hate, anger, the Buddha dove clothes and shoes, a bowl and a staff to walk the world, experience the suffering of the people, Pudu sentient beings, you still dare to carry out the Buddha scary, I am afraid that the Buddha is a god will be angry with you unscrupulous disciples!"

"Coax..." Everyone laughed when they heard this, and they accused a few monks, saying that they were not as good as a child to understand things, and things were clear.

The monks made Zhao Ta's sophistry speechless, and said that in people's hearts, children are weak, and it is nature to love the weak, and it is easiest to win sympathy. He took advantage of the right time, place and people, and Zhao Ta was praised by the 'public opinion circle'. And now, under his exposure, the monk has become a negative example of unearned gains in the eyes of everyone, and he has to hide his face in the saliva of the vast number of working people and flee!

······

By this time it was already dark, the cold moonlight sprinkled the whole yard, the north wind was blowing with a whistle, and the dead wind lamps under the eaves were swaying with the wind, and now it was the coldest time of the year, and the cats and dogs were hiding in the nest and curled up without showing their heads.

In the summer courtyard, osmanthus stood by the second gate while stomping her feet, while breathing in her hands, and her eyes were looking out of the door. It's all this time, the second master hasn't come back yet, this is the fifth day, he takes the second steward and a few guards every day to go out early and return late I don't know what Lu Dao is doing.

'Da Da · Just when the hearts of Osmanthus and the others were anxious, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the darkness, and then two lanterns were lit up, and the group walked towards this side.

"Second master, be careful, I'll help you get off the horse!" Meng Tao jumped off the horse first, grabbed Zhao Ta's horse head and said.

"Thank you, Master Meng!" Zhao Ta said with a smile, but his face was frozen, and his smile turned into a bitter smile, and he reluctantly got off the horse with the support of Meng Tao, "Oops..." As soon as his feet hit the ground, his body tilted twice, and he couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.

"Second master, what's wrong with you?" Osmanthus hurriedly stepped forward to support the prince and asked.

"The second master has been riding a horse for a long time, and his feet must be numb!" Meng Tao explained.

"Sister Osmanthus, it's okay, Master Meng is right, I'll just take two steps!" Zhao Ta said as he tiptoed a few steps.

"Let the little one carry you in, right?" At this time, Feng Xi heard the movement and ran out, and said when he saw the appearance of the prince.

"No need!" Zhao Ta waved his hand and said, "Fengxi, you tell the big kitchen, let them prepare some hot meals, and then blanch the wine for everyone, you are tired after running with me for a day, drink two glasses to relieve fatigue and warm up!" ”

"Second master, you don't have to worry about it, their mother-in-law and children have all been picked up, they must have prepared the wine and food, and the kang is also hot, just wait for them to go back, isn't it!" Meng Tao said with a smile to the guards behind him, his eyes glancing at the osmanthus supporting Zhao Ta intentionally or unintentionally. ,

"Hehe, this is not much thanks to the second master's concern, bring the wife and children here, let us have a reunion year!" One of the guards said with a smile.

"Sin, sin, I forgot about this stubble, everyone hurry back, make amends for me in front of all the ladies, we won't go out tomorrow, everyone rest at ease and be hot with my wife and children, I will visit my home another day!" Zhao Ta arched his hand at everyone and said.

"The second master is serious, it is our blessing to be able to serve a master like the second master before and after the saddle, they can only be grateful, they should say hello to the second master, how dare they blame!" The guards hurriedly returned the salute and said.

"Okay, go back quickly, otherwise the ladies will really scold me for being unkind!" Zhao Ta said with a smile, "Every time I am happy, I will pack two packs of dim sum for everyone to take back, and they will have to kneel when they go back!" ”

"Thank you for the second master's reward, let's take the horse back first, and the second master will rest early!" The guards bowed down to send Zhao Ta into the hospital, their thanks were all from the heart, for a few days in a row, they were all tired and scattered after running for a few days, not to mention that the prince was still a child, he must be more tired, but he still didn't forget everyone, a child can think of this, everyone is moved.

Zhao Ta watched the guards leave, and then walked into the house slowly with a limp on his legs, he had been in an airplane, a tank, and a submarine in his previous life, but he had never ridden a horse, and now he knew that he was riding a horse and looked majestic, but he was really guilty. He was inexperienced at first practice, and he finally learned to control the horse in the past two days, but he was also worn out by the saddle on the inner thighs of his buttocks, and his heart hurt when he moved.

"Second master, you drink a cup of hot tea to warm your stomach first, and then eat!" As soon as Zhao Ta entered the room, he was exhausted, crooked on the soft couch, saw the dim sum on the table, picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, Osmanthus saw it and quickly grabbed it, helped him take off his cloak and said.

"I'm hungry, pad my stomach first!" Zhao Ta let Osmanthus help him take off his boots, wiped his hands and face with the towel that Osmanthus brought over, grabbed a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth and said vaguely.

"Second master, you bake the fire first, see that your frozen face is blue, and the kitchen is boiling ginger soup, you will have to it in a while!" Huaihua brought the brazier and put it at his feet, and said distressedly.

"It's so cold, it's freezing me enough today!" Zhao Ta roasted his hands and feet on the brazier, drank a cup of hot tea, and it took a while for his body to warm up, and his face was a little bloody.

After arranging Zhao Ta, Osmanthus and the two of them were busy going to the kitchen to urge for food, and when they returned to the house with the food box, they found that the prince had fallen asleep on the soft couch, and he was still holding half of the uneaten snack in his hand.

"Second master, second master..." Huaihua screamed softly, but the prince did not react.

"Don't scream, the second master is tired, let him sleep first!" Osmanthus hugged the bed and covered him softly, when she broke Zhao Ta's hand and took out the snack in his hand, she saw that the prince's hand had worn out the reins, revealing bright red tender meat, "Huaihua, you go to the imperial doctor's place to get some wound medicine, the prince's hand is worn out!" ”

The two of them warmed the food on the edge of the brazier, quietly retreated, and as soon as they arrived in the middle hall, they saw Jianxi walking in tiredly, "Seeing Xi, you are really, I don't know how to persuade the second master all day long, look at the second master's tiredness, and I don't know what you are doing these days!" Osmanthus said reproachfully.

"Alas, the second master has to go out, what can I do, these days the second master has walked through every piece of our Zhuangzi, every family has gone in to see it, today we walked along the Baishui River for a day, I don't understand what he wants to do?" Seeing that Xi had just finished the matter with the second steward and the second master, he was also tired enough.

"Seeing the joy is coming, are all the things I want ready?" Zhao Ta in the back room asked when he heard the voice.

"The second master is ready, I'll bring it to you!" Seeing Xi, he hurriedly asked the little yellow door that followed behind to carry a bunch of things in and said.

"Let's send it to the small study, I'll take a shower first, and then let's eat together, we'll be busy tonight!" Zhao Ta came out and rubbed his eyes and said, "Sister Osmanthus, you go and find me a set of underwear made of silk and put it in the dressing room!" ”

"Doesn't the second master don't like to wear silk clothes, why did he take the initiative to ask for it today?" Huaihua looked at the prince who walked into the bathroom with a duck step and asked.

"The second master's thighs must also be worn out, and the flesh of the cotton cloth hurts when he walks!" Jianxi shook his head and said with a wry smile, following the horse riding in the past few days, his butt is also grinding painfully.

The water vapor in the bathroom was curling, the small yellow door in the fire room kept sending hot water down the waterway, Zhao Ta lay in the bathtub, let the warm water soak through the whole body, the cold in the body slowly dissipated, the face hung with a layer of fine sweat, and the tense muscles relaxed.

He touched his chest, pinched his arm, and showed a wry smile at the corner of his mouth, this person is sometimes cheap, lying on the bed every day, eating and drinking is good for people to serve but weak like a grass, now he is boxing and practicing every day, taking the little guys to turn over the ground and plant vegetables, tossing himself like a donkey, not only did the body not collapse, but became more and more solid, it was really the prince's hard work.
