"Didn't you wait for me where you were? What if I get lost? ”

Pei Lin hugged her, so strong that he seemed to hate to embed her in his body, Xue Wu thought he was scared, so she hurriedly hugged him back, and gently patted him on the back, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." ”

After coaxing for a long time, Pei Lin let her go.

Because of wearing a mask, Xue Wu couldn't see his face clearly, and only felt that his gaze seemed to have a temperature, and it fell on his face burningly.

She coughed lightly and took his hand again, "Let's go, let's go back, so that my mother and them don't worry." ”

"Hmm." Pei Lian's big hand wrapped her hand in turn.

Xue Wu vaguely felt that something seemed to be wrong with him at this moment, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, Pei Lin seemed to be aware, and still said in an innocent tone: "Sister-in-law, there are rabbits sold there, let's go over and take a look." ”

Xue Wu's doubts disappeared suddenly, "Okay." ”

The family walked until Hai and returned home.

Normally, most of the families in the city have fallen asleep at this time, but tonight, there are still many people playing and hanging out on the streets, and most of them are women.

Although the customs of the people are relatively open, there are still many restrictions on women's travel on weekdays, especially those from rich and noble families, but tonight, going out is bright.

This day when the Cowherd and Weaver Girl meet, it is also a good time for many young men and women to date.

Under the willow trees, by the lake, by the lamplight, there are not too many men and women in pairs. Complaining and talking little, they just feel that there is not enough time, where are they willing to go back early?

In fact, Xue Wu also felt that she could continue shopping, but considering Xue Jun's body, the family still left early.

But back at home, there's still a lot of fun.

A color building has been erected in the courtyard, the building is placed with grinding and drinking, melon, wine and food, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, needle and thread and other things, this building is called "Qiqiao Building", women need to make their own delicate objects, such as purses, embroidered handkerchiefs and other things to be enshrined in the Qiqiao Building, and then light the incense, carry out worship.

This link is called "begging".

It doesn't matter if you don't have the conditions to build a Qiqiao building, you can have a simpler and more economical way, such as threading a needle and thread to the moon, bowing to the Weaver Statue, etc.

As long as the heart is there.

There is also an activity that both rich and poor families should participate in, that is, put the little spider in a cardboard box that night, open it the next day, and see the shape of the spider web inside, if it is round and straight, it is "coincidental".

was favored by the Weaver Girl.

In the future, she will definitely do a good job as a female celebrity.

Although Xue Wu thinks that this is purely metaphysics, but this does not prevent her from participating, in modern times, these customs have declined, and basically no one mentions it anymore, and now it is quite fun to beg with everyone.

After the Tanabata Festival, it will be the Midyear Festival in a few days.

Midyear Festival, Halloween Festival also, it is said that on this day, the ghost gate is opened, and many ghosts who wander in the underworld and refuse to be reincarnated will be released back into the world and have the opportunity to visit their relatives in the yang world.

Father Xue has been missing for a long time, although Mother Xue still holds hope, but she actually knows in her heart that Father Xue is likely to have suffered an accident, but she didn't see her husband's body and refused to admit it.

Now that the Midyear Festival is coming, she still wants to go back to worship.

So after the Qixi Festival, Xue Wan's family returned to Shanghe Village.

On the day of the Midyear Festival, the family set off early, came to Lingyun Temple, worshiped the Buddha and offered incense, lit an everlasting lamp for Xue's father, and prayed for his safety.

Xue Wu donated a large amount of sesame oil money, so the family's treatment was immediately upgraded, not only had a courtyard to rest alone, but also had a free meal in the temple.

Because it took a lot of time to climb the mountain, it was almost noon after the incense, so after being led to the guest courtyard by the monk, Xue Wu said that she could eat fast.

The family had a delicious meal, and after the meal, Xue's mother was a little in good spirits, so she lay down in bed and took a nap. Xue Wu knew that she was missing Father Xue, so she didn't bother her, and went out with a few small ones to wander around the temple to eat.

Since she came, then the back mountain had to go, and the tree spirit of the Bodhi tree had already sensed her arrival and had been waiting for her for a long time.

When he saw her coming, he immediately greeted her happily.

"Sister!"

Others couldn't see him, so Xue Wu didn't want to be too obvious, so she only smiled and nodded at him.

Today is the Midyear Festival, there are many more guests who come to incense than before, and there are really a lot of people who come to make wishes in front of the Bodhi tree.

Before leaving, Xue Wu winked at Xiao Bodhi, indicating that she would come over to play with him later, Xiao Bodhi hugged her leg and said obediently: "Okay." ”

took his younger siblings and Pei Lian, a large child, back to the guest house, and Xue arranged for them to rest. Pei Lin and Xue Yao are in the same room, and she herself is in the same room as Xue Jun.

After lying down, when Xue Jun fell asleep, Xue Jun quietly got up and came to the back mountain, and directly entered the inside of the Bodhi tree from the ground.

Little Bodhi took her into his companion little world.

Xue Wu came to visit before and brought him furniture and many decorations, and now this small space has been arranged to be very warm and lovely.

A small bed suitable for little Bodhi to sleep on, a small screen, a small table, a small bench, etc., and a soft and silky carpet in front of the bed, on which he can sit and play with toys.

This time, Xue Wu brought a lot of gadgets bought at the bottom of the mountain to the little guy, such as grinding and drinking, rabbit lanterns, farm yard models, and so on.

Little Bodhi liked it very much, and couldn't put it down and played it one by one.

The little guy also knew how to repay the favor, and took out a bunch of food, colorful wild fruits, and nectar that he had collected bit by bit.

The nectar was contained in a small porcelain white bottle, Xue Wu took a sip, it was clear and sweet, and it actually contained a trace of aura, although it was not much, but it did exist.

"It's delicious, but Xiao Bodhi still don't collect it in the future, it's very hard."

Little Bodhi blinked, "It's not hard, sister, I just have to think about it, and the nectar on the leaves will all come to me." ”

Xue Wu reacted, forgetting that this baby was a Bodhi tree spirit, and he didn't have to collect it drop by drop like a human.

After playing with the little guy for a while, Xue Wu had to leave, touching his bare little braincase, "Sister will come to see you next time." ”

Little Bodhi reluctantly watched her leave.

When Xue returned to the guest house, Xue Mu and the others had already gotten up and were talking to a little novice under the porch.

The little novice had come to inform them that there was a lantern event in the temple tonight, and suggested that they could stay and watch.

Xue Wu wanted to see the sky lanterns released, so Xue's mother decided to stay in the temple for one night and go back tomorrow.
