The two of them walked side by side, one secretly longing, and the other was in turmoil.

He didn't speak again.

Shi Ling caught up with Yuan Man and pulled her over, smiled at Fang Ping kindly, and then asked Yuan Man if the four of their brothers and sisters had gone to school.

Although she felt strange to be close to their sisters, it didn't stop her from wanting to help them.

Moreover, at present, she can only follow her heart to figure out why this is happening.

Yuan Man didn't know Shi Ling's thoughts, so he only explained with a smile: "No need, my eldest brother and elder sister are about to go to school in the village school, and my younger brother and I are also about to go." ”

Although I don't know why this rich lady wants to help her family, Yuan Man doesn't want to owe favors to others, and besides, she can't let her family go to the town to study.

It's just that the family doesn't have a place to live in the town at the moment, and they haven't settled down yet.

If they want to study in the town by themselves, they are probably unwilling.

Besides, because of other people's relationships, what if you are looked down upon?

Yuan Man was grateful to Shi Ling for wanting to help them, but he didn't want Yuan Wu to be wronged.

Seeing this, Shi Ling had no choice but to give up.

She originally wanted to say that the academy in the town was better, but seeing Yuanman's reluctance, and afraid that saying that the academy in their village was inferior to the town would embarrass them, she stopped and only let her come to her if she needed it.

Yuan Man thanked her sincerely.

The Flower Temple is just south of the town, not far from where they are, but there are too many people today, and it is difficult to walk an inch in a carriage, so Shi Ling and Yuan Man and his party went on foot.

Yuan Man and Shi Ling took the lead, Fang Ping walked on Yuan Man's left, pulling Yuan Man's sleeve and looking around, Yuan Xiu originally followed Wen in the rear, and was finally pulled over by Shi Ling to walk with her.

In this way, the four little girls walked side by side.

Yuan Man and Yuan Xiu are in the middle, Fang Ping is on the left of Yuan Man, and Shi Ling is on the right of Yuan Xiu.

The little maid had been following Shi Ling and hanging her tail not far away.

Wen led Yuan Cheng behind them, and Yuan Wu also looked left and right while protecting his younger brother.

Wen saw that the two daughters had made new friends, and they were very happy.

Especially Yuan Xiu, who couldn't speak in the first place, and his personality was more introverted.

As for the little girl Yuanman, she is not worried, because she has been cheerful and assertive since she was a child.

Now seeing that the young lady not only did not look down on Yuan Xiu but also talked to her, Wen's heart finally fell, but he was worried that he would be bullied when he went to school in the village.

Wen was worried about going home and telling Yuanwu to take good care of his sister.

The group walked through the streets and alleys with a smile, and some people accompanied them but felt that the road was not so long, and soon arrived at the Flower Temple with the crowd.

The Flower Temple is divided into two floors.

The first floor is full of bluestone stairs, and you go up in a circle to the second floor.

The fact that the temple was built higher than the ordinary ground also shows that it is unusual.

And the second floor is a large platform, not far away is the majestic atmosphere of the temple body, the spire is warped tiles, and the wooden eaves are all kinds of birds and beasts in relief.

The eight gates of the Flower Temple are simple and calm, surrounded by smoke and incense.

Outside, many people are coming in and out, or in pairs, or dragging their families with them.

You can faintly see the futon inside, and many people are worshipping.

Yuanwu Yuancheng and they couldn't help but marvel, and Yuanxiu looked around in surprise.

There is also an old tree on the right in front of the temple of flowers, which is said to be 500 years old.

However, it is not a falling flower tree, but an old banyan tree, which is said to be a temporary residence for the flower gods.

Yuan Man thought it was very interesting to hear it, using other trees as a resting place for the gods of falling flowers?

And the top is also tightly tied with various red silk threads, wrapped all over the tree.

The red line and red satin fluttered slightly in the wind, and it looked quite spectacular to the naked eye.

There were still a few people who were tying red threads to the top, and some women clasped their hands together after tying them, and bowed very reverently, chanting words in their mouths.

Shi Ling led them to that side, and then explained with a smile: "That is the resting platform, said to be for the god of flowers to rest, people like to ask for a red line, make a wish and then tie it to the tree, and wait for the god of flowers to come to review every year, if you are lucky, you will be chosen by the god of flowers, so as to fulfill that wish." ”

Yuan Man was even more surprised, and said, "Is it really effective?" ”

Shi Ling smiled and shook her head, she didn't dare to say nonsense, if she felt that it was all up to her to be spiritual.

If these people are successful, they will be attributed to the god of flowers, and if they are not effective, they will be attributed to people, and if they say anything, it must be that they are not pious enough, or they themselves have committed something, so the god of flowers is not willing to help them.

In the end, they are all desperate, and whether they are spiritual or not is naturally what others say.

Shi Ling never believed this.

She came over to make a scene.

Seeing Shi Ling's reaction like this, Yuan Man was thoughtful, Fang Ping was pulling Yuan Xiu and muttering something, and he didn't care if Yuan Xiu could answer her.

Wen led Yuan Cheng to look around, trying to find the door to ask for the peace charm according to the memories of her childhood, she was going to determine the place first, and after worshipping the flower god in the middle hall, she went to ask for the peace charm.

Yuan Cheng took his mother's hand, heard Shi Ling's words again, looked at the big tree that was wrapped with red threads, and said a little sadly: "Isn't it tired?" So many red threads tie it. ”

The child is innocent and kind, he is simply taking pity on this burdened old banyan tree,

Shi Ling walked in front and heard it, and he also turned around and smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, those red threads will be cleaned up after the flower god sacrifice every year, and then there will be another reincarnation." ”

The implication is that it will not be repeated year by year, and the red line will crush the tree.

Yuan Cheng quietly breathed a sigh of relief, felt much more comfortable, and resumed his smiling appearance.

He said in a milky voice: "Then I will also tie the red thread and make a wish in a while." ”

He also prayed for the safety of his family.

Wen lowered his head, looked at his youngest son's innocent appearance, and responded with a smile: "Okay." ”

Yuan Wu finally withdrew his eyes from looking around, and asked Yuan Cheng with a smile what wish he wanted.

Yuan Cheng turned around and didn't tell him, but muttered: "If you say it, it won't work, A-Niang said." ”

Yuan Wu only teased him.

Yuan Man was also happy to see the two of them playing, and since the separation, they have finally become more and more like children.

The flower god sacrifice on the sixth day of the first month is still very lively, and the people who come and go are constantly changing.

Fortunately, the flower temple is built large enough, and although there are many people, it is not too crowded.

Wait a while.

Shi Ling led them into the hall of the Flower Temple, where the four doors in the middle were located, and inside was a huge colored porcelain figure, with gorgeous colors and exquisite appearance.

The porcelain figure is estimated to be the simulacrum of the god of flowers, and I don't know which craftsman is ingenious, pinching the facial features of the porcelain man vividly, and the smile on the corner of the mouth is also very touching.

At a glance, people feel peaceful and warm, and the whole person calms down.

In addition to the facial features, the porcelain figure is also very eye-catching.

Teal curved eyebrows, peachy eye shadow, plum-colored lipstick...

The floral skirt on the body is colorful, but it doesn't make people feel dirty or dazzling.

In short, in the eyes of Yuan Man, even if there is no halo of the Flower Temple, if you want to come to see this porcelain man alone, there must be an endless stream of people who come to admire it.

After all, it's really beautiful.
