Chapter 354: The Old Monk Is Back
The firecrackers were removed from the old year, and the spring breeze sent warmth into Tusu.
Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the weather is fine.
Qin Xiaoyu was busy cooking early in the morning, and all kinds of fragrances kept wafting from the kitchen, causing Jasmine to not be in the mood to play outside at all, but followed her every step of the way, becoming her most loyal guard and taster, mainly a taster.
Wu Jun sat idly in the grass hut, completely unhelpful in the kitchen, and with nothing else to do, he felt like a landlord.
"Master, did you buy a couplet?" Qin Xiaoyu walked out with a large bowl of white paste, "I made a paste, which can be used to paste couplets." ”
Wu Jun only felt a flash of inspiration, how could he forget such an interesting thing.
"Go buy it right away. ”
He rode a battery car straight into the city, and he had planned to buy two at a small shop on the edge of the city, but when he saw fireworks and firecrackers, he changed his mind.
Today he is not alone for the New Year, maybe he can set off some fireworks.
So he rode into the city again and found a regular fireworks shop.
There are fireworks like cardboard boxes, which are estimated to hit thirty or forty meters.
He picked and chosen, and in the end he was not satisfied, so he changed another one.
I picked more than a dozen in a row, until many stores have closed down, and finally bought the kind of big box of fireworks more than one meter high, but at this time the delivery tricycle is not easy to call, and in the end the boss saw that he bought tens of thousands of goods at a time, and drove a pickup truck to help him send him back.
Fireworks were available tonight, and he figured Jasmine would love it.
Qin Xiaoyu was also very excited when he looked at the fireworks in the place, wiped his hands on his apron, and asked, "Master, where are the couplets?"
Wu Jun: ...... Forget, how can you forget?
"I'll buy it again, it should be too late. ”
He rode quickly into the car and set off again towards the city, and as soon as he was halfway up the mountain, he saw a lonely figure walking towards the mountain step by step.
Firm steps, covered with wind and dust, and ...... temples The whole head is bare, and there is no hair!
At the same time, in Wu Jun's sea of knowledge, a golden card emerged.
The old monk of Jinglin?
The old monk You Fang is back, this is really an unexpected surprise!
So he swooped and parked the car in front of him: "Old monk, it's really you!"
"Amitabha, the donor, is the old monk!"
After not seeing him for more than half a year, the old monk not only did not become old, but looked more energetic than when he left, only thinner.
"You're going to Wangfeng Temple?"
"Hehe, I've been removed from Wangfeng Temple. ”
"Then go to my house," Wu Jun patted the back seat and said, "Let's go, I'll send you up first." ”
"Thank you, donor, in fact, that's what the old monk meant. The old monk said unceremoniously, "But in the end, I'll go up." ”
Wu Jun is right to think about it, he doesn't know how many miles he has walked in the past half a year, and he probably doesn't care about such a little distance, so it will make his merits complete.
So he rode slowly to his side, and the old monk looked really tired and walked very slowly.
The two walked all the way and chatted about some things about the old monk's travels, and it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at home.
"The donor rebuilt the house?"
"Yes, not long after you left," Wu Jun led the old monk Jinglin into the grass house, "How do you feel, are you more comfortable than before?"
Monk Jinglin gently sat down on the chair, feeling extremely comfortable, and was about to sit quietly for a while, when he suddenly remembered that this might not be polite, but the familiar breath in the air made him can't help but close his eyes, and instantly entered the realm of selflessness.
Wu Jun is used to this.
"Hey, is this Master Jinglin?" Qin Xiaoyu walked over again in his apron, "When did he come back?" ”
"Just now," Wu Jun said, "wait a minute, you can prepare a few more vegetarian dishes." ”
"Okay," Qin Xiaoyu said that he was about to go to the backyard to pick vegetables, and after walking a few steps, he turned back and asked, "Master, where are the couplets?"
Wu Jun: ...... Forget, how can you forget again?
He looked at the time, and now it is estimated that all the people who sell couplets have closed their stalls, and the supermarket should also be closed, how can this be done?
If you really can't do it, write it yourself.
Wu Jun thinks this is really a good idea, even Zou Hai can write and paint to sell for money, he should have no problem writing a couplet.
So he came to a room on the first floor, where Zou Hai wrote calligraphy and paintings when he was idle and bored, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were complete.
After finding a few pieces of red paper to cut, Wu Jun drew some water from the Lingquan Well, and then began to grind the ink.
He had never used it before, and when he was in school, he learned to write in large characters, using ready-made ink, which smelled stinky.
The smell of this ground ink is very pleasant, and this is the real ink fragrance.
After grinding the ink, I chose the largest pen, and soon a couplet was written.
Spring is always there all year round,
Thousands of purples and thousands of red flowers bloom forever.
The upper link is more suitable for the occasion, as for the lower link, there are still a lot of flowers in the backyard, which can be regarded as the occasion.
Forget it in a horizontal batch, there is no door outside the door, and there is no place to post it.
At this time, the old monk slowly opened his eyes, and as soon as he saw that he was writing couplets, he got up to take a look.
"What do you think of my writing?"
Looking at the dozen or so big characters on the couplet that were like earth dragons running wild, the old monk nodded calmly: "It's good that the donor is happy." ”
Wu Jun: ...... Are you praising me, or are you praising me?
When the ink was dry, he took the couplet and paste and pasted it neatly on the door outside.
As for the home, even if it is fine, those exquisite carvings do not seem to be suitable for pasting couplets.
It's getting late, and the lights are bright.
Qin Xiaoyu put the prepared dishes on a large table, which was extremely rich.
Seeing her busy appearance, the old monk asked Wu Jun: "What ......are you doing?"
"She came over for a few days. Wu Jun said, "She opened a cake shop in the city, and it is closed for the Chinese New Year. ”
The old monk suddenly realized and muttered, "I thought you were living together." ”
Wu Jun almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of rice, old man, you are a monk, do you need such gossip?
But there is one more person, and the atmosphere is naturally different, although the old monk is eating food most of the time, but it feels really lively.
After dinner, Wu Jun started to set off fireworks with great interest.
The three of them and two dogs stood on the grass, watching the brilliant fireworks explode in the black night sky, feeling extremely calm.
"Next year, I tried to buy a house in the city and paid a down payment!"
Qin Xiaoyu said in her heart that in addition to earning back the cost this year, she also made a profit of tens of thousands of yuan, and the business of the cake shop also remained stable.
But the only inconvenience is that it is very inconvenient to rent someone else's house.
So buying a house is her biggest wish next year and even in the next few years.
Wu Jun also has a New Year's resolution, he hopes that within next year, he can raise the level in front of him.
However, at the current pace, there is still a bit of hope.
The system requires a hundred meters of perception, and now it has only broken through to twenty meters, and the further back it goes, the more difficult it becomes.
As for the rest, not for the time being.
He looked at Daikoku and Jasmine, wondering if they had any wishes.
Daikoku: Strive to graduate from elementary school next year!
Jasmine: What's next year?
......
The first day of the first lunar month is Wu Jun's lunar birthday.
Now many people don't celebrate their birthdays according to the lunar calendar, because it is more troublesome to remember, except for the Spring Festival and Qixi Festival, everyone has no feeling about the lunar calendar.
But he didn't tell everyone, so the day was uneventful.
Qin Xiaoyu took Da Hei and Jasmine to climb the mountain, and he and the old monk Jinglin sat in the grass house and drank tea.
The old monk's journey around the world sounds romantic, but the process is extremely difficult.
Last year, he was just walking around Shudi, so he can come back to take a look, this year he plans to go out of the province, and if he wants to come back, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
"You should buy a mobile phone," Wu Jun said, "or I'll give you one?"
"I have a cell phone. The old monk took out a new fruit mobile phone from his bag, "This is a kind gift from a donor, but it doesn't seem to be very useful." ”
Wu Jun saved the old monk's number, helped him apply for WeChat, taught him how to use it, and helped him charge enough phone bills to open unlimited traffic across the country.
In this way, you can connect anytime and anywhere, and you can also video.
"Thank you, donor. ”
"Don't thank me," Wu Jun smiled, "You forgot that you invested in two futons, and now you have started to make money, and this is all your money." ”
Old Monk: "...... I don't know if the donor can give me some, just a few thousand yuan. ”
"What are you going to do?" Wu Jun asked curiously, "Are you going to do a good deed?"
"No," the old monk shook his head and said, "It's just that now, it's getting more and more difficult to turn into a relationship, and the old monk is away from home, and he often can't eat for two or three days, so this time I want to bring some plates to wrap around my body, so as not to starve to death on the road." ”
Wu Jun gave him >: "If you really need money to do good deeds, just call me at any time." ”
"Thank you so much. ”
......
Time passed like this, and in a blink of an eye, the seventh day of the first month.
Qin Xiaoyu wanted to go back to prepare for the opening of the store, so she made lunch early and left.
The old monk still meditates every day, but drinking spiritual spring water and eating Heavenly Master vegetables every day has made his body improve again and make him appear full of energy.
According to his plan, he would leave after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and this time he would leave Shu and go farther away.
Wu Jun could only say that he wished him good luck to the old man.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the Spring Festival holiday ended, and the whole people began to work.
Wu Jun didn't have any idea about this, but in the sugarcane field, there was a piece of news that made him feel very painful, and he chewed for a morning, without any physical strength.
"System, is the product you gave me defective?"
System: "Please note that the Celestial Master Sugarcane, like the Celestial Master Vegetables, has no effect on the host. ”
"How's that done?"
"Don't worry, the system is looking for a suitable crop for the host. ”
"How long will it take to find it?"
System: "This can only be left to chance." ”
Looking at the large piece of uneaten sugarcane, Wu Jun felt that there was no one left.
Could it be that he is really so talented that he can't even keep up with the rhythm of his cultivation?
He's planning to move up this level this year, but it looks a bit dangerous now.
The talent is so good, and it's so annoying.
Now that you don't have to eat sugar cane, then you only have to cultivate every day.
So he and the old monk competed and meditated in the grass house, and after doing it for a long time, Zou Hai came.
After drawing a health charm for him, Zou Hai said: "Master, Qin Xiaoyu's cake shop doesn't seem to be quite right. ”
"What's wrong?" Wu Jun asked.
"When I was passing by yesterday, I saw a big chain cake shop next door to her, do you think someone deliberately manipulated her?"
Wu Jun thought about it, this shouldn't be a deliberate manipulation of her.
Maybe some people think that she has a good location there, and the customer flow is also managed by her, so opening the same store next to her is a good strategy.
As for whether you are kind or not, who will tell you what kind of kindness in the business field, such things as big capital squeezing and embezzling small capital happen almost all the time.
But this girl too, she didn't say a word when something like this happened, and wanted to fight against the chain store alone?
If she had feng shui stones, it might be okay, but she was able to make that small cake shop completely by her own craftsmanship and Wei Han's help with the planning.
To fight against a well-funded chain, she is really a little tender.
"Let's go and have a look. ”
