Chapter 108: Pleading
He Mian'er knew that Master Chen's letter at the moment was like an invitation to elope.
When he encountered a catastrophe in life and death, he was unwilling to give up his agreement with her, and only wanted to return to the grassland with her and live a life of shepherding sheep and riding horses.
For a moment, she faltered. Master Chen treats her without saying anything, the grassland is carefree, if they can escape smoothly, they can be a pair of fairy couples under the blue sky and white clouds for the rest of their lives.
Besides, there is also her little Shuoye to accompany her.
If she continues to stay in the Central Plains, Master Chen's life is in danger, but she will also be coerced by Xu Yunqing, just like a woman in a green building, and she will not be free.
It's just that He Mian'er thought about her elderly parents, after waiting for her for a few years, they were about to encounter life and death, how could their parents stand it.
But what Master Chen said in the letter was very good, and asked He Mian'er to leave a letter and tell her family that if they missed her, in a few years, she would go to the Mongolian border to find them behind everyone's back.
I don't want to worry about never seeing each other.
He Mian'er was tempted for a while, the Central Plains people have a lot of affairs, if the parents can go to the grassland together at that time, the family is harmonious and beautiful, so happy.
Now he took a pen and wrote down a letter, put it in the box in the dresser, and found it when everyone was tidying up.
She was very anxious in her heart, but her face did not waver in the slightest, and in the evening, she dined with her parents, and although she tried her best to remain calm, her face was very pale.
"Mian'er, haven't you caught a cold these days and nights?" Master He sensed that something was wrong with his daughter for the first time, and asked with concern.
This is the first time that the family has eaten together since the fourth prince was imprisoned, and he knows that his daughter is wronged, and he is kind to say.
He Mian'er shook her head, before she could speak, tears flowed down first, and then she stretched out her sleeves, raised her wine glass, and said with a drink: "It's because I just drank wine." ”
Then He Qi relieved himself.
He Mian'er got up, poured a glass of wine for her father and mother, raised her glass, and was even more sad for a while, choking up: "My daughter is not filial, and I worry about my parents." Today I toast the second elder. ”
These words are upright, but they are a little sad. He Qi didn't want to provoke his wife to tears, so he smiled and said, "It's a beautiful thing for us to sit together as a family today and have dinner together." Mian'er is by my side, which is the biggest good thing for me. ”
Mrs. He also smiled happily, and also gave her daughter a chopstick dish, and said, "This is your favorite date sugar lotus, I specially asked the kitchen to make it for you today." ”
He Mian'er was very sad in her heart, but she didn't want her parents to see it, so she only drank the wine in the glass reluctantly, but the heart that wanted to leave was shaken a little more.
Lord He and his wife only regarded their daughters as the affairs of the four princes, and they were sad in their hearts, so they didn't take their daughter's strangeness seriously.
When He Mian'er returned to the room, it was late at night, but her boudoir was brightly lit.
He Mian'er deliberately took away Mingzhu, only saying that she wanted to be clean and pure. Mingzhu thought that why Mian'er was shy to be bumped into another person in the room, so she didn't care and lived with Caifeng.
Shuo Ye was taken into the room by her, and he was sleepy at the moment and was sleeping obediently.
He Mian'er remembered for a while what the four princes said, and since she had the opportunity to pick up her parents in the future, she was at ease and packed a few things by herself.
When I think of my parents, if I know that I have abandoned them and eloped with others, I am afraid that my heart will be sad and my face will be gloomy.
At the moment, I stopped cleaning up again, and I didn't plan to leave for a while. fifth
When I arrived, I thought that Master Chen was priceless to him, and he was willing to give up his life. As the saying goes, it is easy to get a thousand gold treasures, and it is rare to have a lover.
If the two of them can stay together for the rest of their lives, they will be willing to die at this moment.
I started packing some things that Sakuno wanted to bring again.
It's just that after cleaning up twice, I saw countless toys that my parents bought for Shuoye, such as ragdoll dolls, knives and swords, clay figures, etc., and I felt sad.
For a while, I remembered that my parents had gray hair and were quite old, even if I could go to find myself in the future, this road was far away, but my parents' bodies and bones did not know whether they could stand it or not.
Her mother has eye problems and is still unable to walk, so how can she let her mother go all the way to find her?
At the moment, I was full of regret in my heart, and I couldn't help but scatter that thing on the ground, and I cried bitterly.
In the blink of an eye, she wanted the four princes to die soon, she took out the letter written by the four princes, spread it carefully on the table, and looked at every word on it seriously, but she didn't know what to do in her heart.
All of a sudden, love and filial piety stood at both ends of the scale, constantly rising and falling in her heart, making her not know what to do.
He Mian'er was hesitating, she devoted herself to how to choose, she didn't pay attention, and quietly walked in from the window.
Slowly walked into himself, looking at the letter on the table.
Dividing line
I saw that Master Naming was still holding a few account books in his hand, and he had already walked over quickly, scolding Mingxin sharply.
Seeing He Mian'er present, Master Ming's face softened a little, and she turned around and asked, "Madam is here, why is it coming?" ”
Hearing that He Mian'er made her intentions clear, Master Ming frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, but did not refuse like the master of the nunnery.
He Mian'er saw Master Ming's expression, and knew that this trip had been settled. I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart, Master Ming looked at the solemnity of the Fa Xiang too much, and he actually missed the old feelings.
"The owner of the nunnery, Zhizhi has been sick in bed recently, and there is a shortage of manpower for the accounts and expenses in the nunnery, so it is better to keep her for a few days and help take care of it." Venerable Ming said to the nun master too respectfully, after all, there are not many bhikshunis who can read and write.
The master of the nunnery nodded, but he didn't care very much, and he looked like he was in charge of Master Ming.
In this way, He Mian'er and Ah Xiang lived in a nunnery outside the city, and lived on the same kang with Mingxin.
This nunnery covers an area of small size, simple and small, at the sight of the nunnery, it is facing the Daxiong Treasure Hall, two small rooms on the left and right, which enshrine the protector of the Dharma.
Further back, there are several humble meditation rooms that are used to receive guests. The backyard is where the teachers and wives live. Behind the gate of the nunnery, there is a large bamboo forest, and there is a large vegetable field next to the bamboo forest, all of which are planted by the teachers and wives in the nunnery.
Mingxin wanted to guard the door of the nunnery, and the work of decocting medicine for the wise master fell on Ah Xiang. Fortunately, she has always been accustomed to serving others, and she is also handy.
He Mian'er is helping to deal with the accounts in the nunnery, which is not a big place, just register the incense money donated by people every day, and write down some necessary expenses.
This place is more partial, and only the wives and ladies of large and small officials in Beijing will come, and there are occasional villagers nearby who come up to ask for a peace charm, but it is still quite deserted.
In order to avoid trouble, Master Ming specially instructed He Mian'er not to go to the front hall, but only to move in the meditation room and the back mountain.
There seem to be only seven or eight masters in the nunnery, and a few of them are very old, and only the master Ming is the only one in the nunnery.
