Acquaintance with Jun Chu is like an old friend Chapter 35: Revealing the Secret is a fake monk
Yun Xiu originally wanted to stay at home for a few more days, and thought that before going out, Gu Liu told her to go back early.
Things at home are a mess, it's not something that a little girl can figure out for a while, with the eldest sister and the second sister in front of the house, Yunxiu went to work hard for the landlord with the burden on her back.
In midsummer, there were more showers, and the crops in the field could no longer drain well by the ditch alone, so Gu Liu invited the croppers from the nearby village to help dig the ditch.
Yun Xiu came back at the right time, it was not easy for more than a dozen people to cook, Aunt Li also took her little Fuzi over to do some work of choosing vegetables and washing vegetables, and seeing Yun Xiu can be regarded as a savior.
Put down her bags and change into a water skirt, Yun Xiu rolled up her sleeves and moved the stool to work with Aunt Li.
Gu Liu is generous, even if he spends money to hire someone to do the work, he doesn't want to treat everyone badly in terms of food, there is half a pork rib in the bucket, Yun Xiu took a knife, washed it and cut the ribs in the yard.
"Aunt Li, I'm afraid it's not good to buy pork ribs overnight in hot weather, why don't I grab some salt?" Melons, fruits, pears and peaches can also be put in baskets and hung in the well, the pork oil is fishy, hanging into the well, and the draft for ten days and half a month has a fishy smell.
Aunt Li held two cabbages in the basin, and Xiaofuzi behind her also held two in her arms, grinning and said: "Don't bother, there are many people eating these days, and the sixth master of this half pig is still complaining about why he didn't buy the pig's head back." ”
"It takes a few people to dig a ditch, and one person can eat two big bowls and walk away with his stomach." Yun Xiu said with a smile. Isn't it enough to have a bowl of meat for seven or eight people, is it possible that even the meals that people bring home are enough? You can't be so bad if you have money.
"There are a lot of people, more than half of the strong laborers in several nearby villages are in the fields, and the rations of dozens of people are enough for two bowls per person."
"Master is going to build a palace, so many people are needed." She was very clear about the things in the ground, it was nothing more than to reinforce the horizontal ditches in the depression, how could there be such a large amount of work.
"The sixth master led people to dig a big ditch in the ground!" Xiaofuzi stood on the chair, gestured on his toes, and held two selected cabbage leaves in his hands.
Yesterday when he followed his father to the field to deliver food, he saw that a large and wide ditch was dug in the field, and the soil was patted with edges and corners, which was neat and orderly, and it was magnificent!
"The sixth master thinks that he has provoked the dragon king, so he built such a big project." Yun Xiu teased.
"I don't know, the sixth master said that the one he planted is called flax, and he is afraid of drought and waterlogging, and the ditch is dug big, and the growth is good." Aunt Li explained for Gu Liu.
Although she is just a mother-in-law who cooks, she has been following the sixth master for so many years, and the master's affairs should not be said much, but the sixth master is not a nosy person in the day, obviously treating this Yunxiu girl differently, in addition to a few nephews of the Gu family who can come to live for a few days during the summer, this is the first time I have seen the sixth master take a little girl to his yard.
Who in the Gu family doesn't know that the sixth master is the cleanest, and outsiders have to sprinkle water to clean his yard when they stand on it.
This Yunxiu girl, although she was born a little harder, she will have to have a good foundation in the future.
The cabbage is washed and cut, and stewed in the pot with the pork ribs in the stir-fried water, and after a while, you can smell the tangy aroma of meat.
"Yunxiu, I'm afraid that a big pot of dishes is not enough to eat, so I will explain, let me make another scrambled egg with green peppers."
Looking at the basket of green peppers in Aunt Li's hand, Yun Xiu's eyebrows were twisted, the green peppers were not delicious, and she was still hot and stinging on her body, she squatted on the side with a basin and knocked eggs.
Knowing that Yunxiu doesn't like green peppers, Aunt Li didn't say much, children always have a few things they don't like to eat, and they don't pick anything when they grow up.
"Mother! Mother! My eyes hurt! Xiaofuzi suddenly covered his eyes and cried with a grin.
He helped his mother cut the green peppers, and accidentally put the green peppers into his eyes, which was hot and uncomfortable.
Aunt Li hurriedly washed her hands and went to the well to fetch cold water to wash her son's eyes.
Yun Xiu finished beating the eggs, Aunt Li hadn't dealt with Xiaofuzi's eyes yet, and looked at the sky, the big sun was about to reach the top of her head. If the meal is not made again, it is estimated that the meal will have to be urged at home.
With a horizontal heart, Yun Xiu sat there and washed and cut the green peppers.
The time was pinched, and just as the meal happened, Aunt Li and her man came back in the car.
Xiaofuzi's eyes were red, and he leaned over to show his father, "Dad, Dad, look, his eyes hurt." ”
Aunt Li and her man frowned, Yun Xiu thought that she was going to blame Aunt Li for not taking good care of the child, but she didn't think that Aunt Li and her man suddenly slapped her legs with laughter, and pointed at her son while laughing, "Xiaofuzi, why are you like a little rabbit, if you don't know if you go to school, tell Mr., let's change our name to Little Rabbit!" Hahaha, it's so funny......"
Originally, he was looking for his father to comfort him, but he didn't expect to be teased in exchange for a meal, and Xiaofuzi's tears were finally coaxed by Aunt Li, and they fell like beads.
Afraid that her daughter-in-law would blame, Aunt Li and her man hurriedly carried all the meals into the car and left quickly.
Yunxiu also went with her, and she also wanted to see what the big ditch in Xiaofuzi's mouth looked like.
The summer wind blew hot, and when Yunxiu came out of the house, he picked a taro leaf on the top of his head, so that he had a small piece of shade in front of his face.
Insects were beckoned under the lotus leaves, and the small flying insects were floating and rolling in the air along the hot wind, and Yun Xiu turned his head and narrowed into one in his eyes.
Yun Xiu wanted to squeeze it out with her fingers, but without a mirror, it was illegal to touch it.
The nails of the little thumb were kept for digging ears, which were longer than the others, and Yun Xiu stretched out her little finger to buckle the little worm.
It's not easy to wash the nails when they grow, just now she also touched the chili peppers with her hands, and the ones that were washed and cut were not cleaned in the nails, and Yun Xiu felt that her eyes were spicy and painful after two times.
Gu Liu watched the car delivering the rice coming, Yun Xiu sat next to the rice bucket, her eyes were as red as rabbits, and the first thing she said when she saw him was: "Master!" My eyes hurt ......."
Originally, he hid under the melon shed and watched them work, but he was not tired, but the sun was scorching, and the roast was hot everywhere.
When I came out of the shed, I saw Yun Xiu also coming, the little girl's eyes were red, and when she came up to grab his shoulder, she shed tears, and she didn't know what to say when she whimpered.
Seeing her crying sadly, Gu Liu reached out and patted her shoulder. When she lowered her head, she heard her mouth screaming vigorously.
"What's wrong with the eyes?" Gu Liu took her hand away and looked at it, there was nothing in her eyes.
"The pepper is in the eye." Yun Xiu grinned widely, with tears on her face.
Seeing her embarrassed appearance, like a little rabbit with pink eye, and grinning aggrievedly, Gu Liu wanted to laugh in his heart, but he couldn't help it. If he laughs out loud at this time, the little girl doesn't know how to arrange him behind the scenes.
took the water from the kettle, let Yun Xiu raise her head to flush her eyes, and poured the pot of water into the water, so that she could slowly open it and see people.
"Does it still hurt?" Gu Liu asked with concern.
"It hurts." Yun Xiu nodded aggrievedly, the chili pepper was really annoying.
Gu Liu served the food of the two of them and took Yunxiu to the melon shed to eat. Taking advantage of the free time to eat, Yunxiu told Gu Liuliu about the affairs of the family, and if she could say what she could not say, she was picky and picky, and she made up a basket of words.
When he heard Yun Xiu say that the master of Pingying Temple, Gu Liu's eyebrows frowned, "The host of Pingying Temple is from the Yunzi generation, called Yunxin, if it is the junior brother of the host, it should also be the Yunzi generation, and that Wuxiang is afraid that he is a fake monk." ”
"The village chief brought it, how can there be a fake. What's more, he was placing an order in Guanping Temple at that time, would people not check his degree in the temple? "Even if they are stupid, the abbot of Guanping Temple is a fool? , can't you even tell the difference between a true and a fake monk?
Seeing that the little girl looked incredulous, Gu Liu was not angry, and took two mouthfuls of the big man who drank the tea and said: "There are many such things, take a radish and carve a chapter, a page is red, and I can make you a hundred copies of the exact same degree." ”
"Do you dare to fake?" Yun Xiu thought it was incredible, it was issued by the government, and if the fake was caught, it would be imprisoned, how could there be a fake.
"The sky is high here, the emperor is far away, not to mention the small temple in Guanping Temple, how can you tell the truth from the false."
"But after Master Xiaoquan really finished chanting, my father's eyes closed!" If that Master of Enlightenment is fake, why did her father's eyes start to fail?
"I've heard of a way to do this!" A working man came over, and Yun Xiu looked at him a little familiar, but he didn't remember where he had seen it.
Gu Liuye's food is large and meaty, and they are a group of country men, and they may not eat so well during the New Year, so they naturally want to come and say a few words of thanks to the host. Hearing them talking about the monk, he interjected.
Gu Liu was also curious about what the method was, and hurriedly called him over to talk about it. Some people saw the master's family talking together, and some gossip also came over in twos and threes.
The man threw the hoe on the ground, sat down on the hoe handle, came to the spirit, and ate regardless of it, holding the dishes and chopsticks with a radiant face, "My father-in-law died the year before last, and the monk also went there, and he also placed an order in a small temple in the countryside, and the monk was oily and shiny, and he didn't look dry at all." ”
Yun Xiu thought of the enlightened monk, who did look fat and shiny, and was seven or eight points similar to what the big brother said.
"The monk recited the sutra for three days, but when he wanted to cover the coffin, he found that my father-in-law's eyes couldn't close, and my daughter-in-law was afraid that she wanted to stuff him with money, and begged him to ask her father why he couldn't blind his eyes."
"Didn't you give money too?" Someone coaxed.
"No, no!" The man waved his hand again and again: "Thanks to my brother-in-law's young age, he got up in the middle of the night to pee, saw him hiding in the back mountain to roast rabbits to eat, and watched my daughter-in-law come out with silver, and my brother-in-law exposed his identity in front of everyone." The big guy tied up the monk with all his hands, so he didn't get deceived. ”
"Then how did he manage to keep the dead man's eyes closed?" The living are fooled, but the dead are not at their mercy.
