Chapter 5: The Baby Girl Is Adopted by a Mortal
Besides, the short and dilapidated land temple on the street, at the moment the land justice is sitting in the temple and worrying, looking at the baby in front of him and not knowing what to do.
He stomped back and forth and said to himself, "Doesn't it embarrass me if you want me to take care of the child? I'm a big man and I don't have milk, how can I feed her?" Let me think about it, it seems that I have to find a nurse for this little baby, and I can't starve her. ”
After making up his mind, the land lord changed into a commoner farmer and walked out of the land temple with the baby girl in his arms.
Before I knew it, snow began to fall in the sky, and the snow was flying all over the sky, and the biting cold wind wrapped in clouds of snow blew through every corner of the street.
There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets. The land lord didn't know where to go to find a nurse for the baby girl in his arms, and after thinking twice, he finally decided to go to Guanyin to help.
Five miles out of the city, there is a Guanyin temple on a small peak. The land lord came to the Guanyin Temple, woke up the Guanyin Niangniang with immortal magic, and told her what had just happened.
Guanyin Niangniang took the baby girl and said with a smile: "Isn't this little thing easy to do? But this baby girl was born to a fairy, not an ordinary child, if she is discovered by a demon with high magic power in the mortal world and sees through her true body, I am afraid it will bring her life to danger." ”
The land is fair: "Then what do you say? Why don't you keep her by your side and raise her, and when she grows up, you will take her as an apprentice." ”
"Don't worry, I have a way to hide her aura. ”
After that, Guanyin Niangniang took out a jade bottle from her arms and fed the water in the bottle to the baby girl to drink a few sips.
"Come with me. Guanyin carried the baby girl out of the temple.
The land lord hurried after her.
Later, the two took the baby girl back to the street of Nanyan City again, when the snow was already falling heavily, and there was no figure in sight on the street.
"There is no one on the street, where should we go to find a nurse for this baby?"
Guanyin pointed to the distance and said, "Look, her father and mother are coming to pick her up in a carriage." ”
The land lord looked in the direction of Guanyin's finger and saw a carriage with a blue cloth tent slowly approaching from a distance.
The snow was slippery, and the carriage was slow, driven by an old farmer wearing a coarse cotton jacket and a straw hat. Through the blue canopy, a young couple can be seen sitting in a car with a little boy.
The man was dignified and calm, wearing a dark blue silk shirt and holding the woman's waist with his hand, obviously he loved his wife very much. The woman was charming, gentle and lovely, and she held the little boy tightly in her hands. The little boy looked to be about five or six years old, and was asleep in his mother's arms.
Wait for the carriage to approach slowly. Guanyin's finger was a little on the shoulder of the land man, and a straw shelf filled with sugar gourds appeared on the shoulder of the land man out of thin air.
Guanyin said: "Go over and sell." ”
The land lord was still in a daze, and was pushed by Guanyin before holding the sugar gourd and walking towards the carriage.
"Sell sugar gourds! big and sweet!"
The little boy in the carriage woke up immediately when he heard the shouting.
"Mother, if the child wants to eat sugar gourd, my mother will buy it. ”
The woman told the groom to stop, pulled the little boy out of the car, stopped the landlord and asked, "Old man, how much is your sugar gourd?"
"A string of copper coins. ”
The woman took out two copper coins and sold them for two strings, and turned to take her son back to the carriage, when the little boy suddenly jumped up and ran down the street.
"Don't run at the end of the world, be careful not to fall. The woman shouted after the little boy.
After a while, the little boy ran into the dilapidated and low earth temple by the street, and the woman followed him.
The little boy crouched on the ground and pointed to the baby girl next to him.
"Mother, look, my sister is really waiting here to play with me. Just now, a beautiful sister waved at me, she said that her sister was waiting in the temple to play with me, it turned out that what she said was true. ”
The woman was astonished, and thought to herself who had left the child here on this very cold day? Seeing that there was no one else in the temple, the woman was worried that the baby girl would starve to death and freeze to death, so she picked up the baby girl and pulled the little boy out of the land temple.
Back in the carriage, the man was puzzled when he saw his wife coming back with the baby in her arms, and hurriedly asked what had happened.
The woman told her husband what had just happened.
When the man heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Great! I think it must be the mother who sent the child to the apparition and sent us the child." ”
The woman also said with joy on her face: "Yes! Since I gave birth to Tianya, five years, I have not been able to give birth to a daughter for the Duan family, for this matter I worship the Bodhisattva every day, it must be our sincerity that touched the heavens, God asked the mother to send us a daughter." ”
"The lady is right! Look how beautiful this baby is! Her skin is so white, and there is a snowflake birthmark between her eyebrows. When we meet her on this snowy day, why don't we call her Tianxue?"
"Just follow the justice. ”
The little boy clapped his hands and laughed: "Great! My sister has a name, my sister's name is Tianxue, my name is Tianya, and Xue'er and I are good brothers and sisters." ”
