Chapter 3: Prayer
After Yun Yi turned two years old, he especially liked to entangle Qinghe, as long as Qinghe went down the mountain, Yun Yi was like a leg pendant, and he couldn't tear it off.
This year, God appreciates the food, and the harvest is good, which is a bumper harvest year. The people can barely eat enough every day.
So occasionally, Qinghe took Yun down the mountain and always received some rice and tofu as a reward, and occasionally he could get a few copper plates as income when he saw a doctor.
Yun Yi was tired of staying on the mountain, and the corners in the view made her explore thoroughly. The senior brothers and sisters didn't let her go up the mountain to play, so she could only sit on the stone steps in front of the gate of Qingyunguan every day and greet the pilgrims who came and went to offer incense.
What does it mean that pilgrims here are really just pilgrims?
Like other temples, incense must be bought in the view, and Qingyunguan does not have this requirement, pilgrims can bring their own incense, pat their butts and leave, or they can not bring incense to worship, occasionally chat with the Taoist elders in the temple to complain about the shortcomings of the parents, leave a handful of rice, three or two eggs can be.
The white and tender Yun Yi sat in front of the gate, and he liked to be inquired about by the pilgrims.
For example, how old are you?
What is it?
Who is your master?
What did you eat this morning?
......
After chatting, patting his ass and going home, poor Yunyi has been reduced to a tool man to chat with him every day.
So she wanted to go down the mountain, very much, very much.
So she locked her eyes on Qinghe, staring at Qinghe like a little tail every day, as long as Qinghe had the intention of going down the mountain, she turned into a leg pendant, and no one wanted her to let go.
(Qinghe...... I felt like I was being watched every day. )
Of course, she can't hold her thighs and not let go every time Qinghe goes down the mountain.
For example, doing things and seeing a doctor, if she goes, she will disturb people, but if she prays for blessings, she will not let go.
On this day, Qinghe is going down the mountain to pray for the birthday of Li Zheng in Daxiang Village next door. Li Zheng called his second grandson to come to the door early to invite, and Yun Yi also stayed behind Qinghe early to make a cute little tail.
Ah Yun also wanted to go down the mountain to play, so he looked left and right, and silently followed behind Yun Yi.
Qinghe watched the tail behind him getting longer and longer, and couldn't help but sigh, he also wanted to bring a few more disciples to pray for others, but there were many people and a lot of food, it was not a rich and noble family, except for days like 60 years old, few people would invite the Taoist to come to pray for blessings.
The old people who can live to the age of 60 in these years are all blessings for their children and grandchildren, and they must be done in a big way.
It doesn't hurt to take it to the dust, it's still a little doll, and it can't eat a few rice, but Ayun is still a little old, he is already a 14-year-old boy, it is the time to eat, Lizheng's second grandson is also seventeen or eighteen years old, although the harvest is good this year, but there are many mouths for eating at home, of course, it can save a little is a little, so he silently glanced at Ayun and didn't say anything.
Qinghe called Ah Yun aside and whispered to him for a while, and then Ah Yun stayed silently.
Yun Yi looked at Qinghe and then at Ah Yun, silently walked to Ah Yun's side, grabbed Ah Yun's calloused hand and shook it and whispered: "Senior Brother Ah Yun, I'll come back to tell you a story and bring you delicious food~"
Ah Yun looked down at Xiao Quchen, who kept blinking, although he was a little lost in his heart, he was still very comforted, although he knew that the words were to comfort him, but he still touched her little head with relief.
"Go, follow the master, don't run around, be careful of being photographed by the flowers."
Yun Yi agreed, then turned around and grabbed the hem of Qinghe's clothes and followed him out.
After walking a few hundred meters, Yun Yi already felt that her legs were starting to be sore, but she insisted on going down the mountain, so she couldn't increase the burden on the master, so she gritted her teeth and persevered.
As he walked, he almost fell down the steps because of his weak legs. Qinghe has been paying attention to the situation of the little disciple with his spare eyes, and he is very satisfied with her persistence. Seeing that the little disciple almost fell down because of his physical exhaustion, he quickly reached out and grabbed a handful, grabbed the back collar of the little disciple, and picked him up and hugged him.
"It's good to have perseverance, but it's important to measure what you're capable of. Don't overdo it. ”
"Yes!"
Li Zheng's second grandson looked a little embarrassed, and took Yun Yi over: "Dao Chief, I'll carry it, I'm young and strong, and don't you educate us to respect the old and love the young, you are also old, there is still a section on this road, and I am not tired of carrying it, not to mention, Xiao Achen also grew up with all of us." I've always looked at her as a daughter! ”
"Good, good, good, you're learning well." Qinghe carefully looked at the young man in front of him, and was very satisfied, the villagers near Qingyun Mountain have grown up in recent years, and the folk customs have become more and more simple.
Yun Yi obediently transferred from Qinghe's back to Lizheng's second grandson and Erniu's back. She's a burden now, and she needs to be more well-behaved.
When I arrived at Daxiang Village, the largest house in the village was Lizheng's house, and today the villagers in Daxiang Village came to help, and the stage had been set up, several daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law of Lizheng and some women in the village were busy making lunch to entertain everyone, and Lizheng's sons and several other grandsons stood in front of the door to welcome guests or enter the yard to entertain relatives and friends.
The daughters and granddaughters who married inside and outside also took their sons-in-law and grandsons-in-law busy, which was really a prosperous and lively scene.
Yun Yi also looked at the tongue, such a big family is not common in modern times.
What's more, in the ancient times when he was watching the sky and eating, Yun Yi instantly respected Uncle Li Zheng and his daughter-in-law.
Erniu led Qinghe to meet the birthday star first, and then went to help his brothers welcome guests. Qinghe accompanied Shou Xinggong to eat Shou Peach and talk. Yun Yi sat quietly on Qinghe's lap, his hands obediently on his lap.
Uncle Li Zheng asked Yun Yi about her number and age, and chatted with some children's jokes, Yun Yi made the old man laugh, and praised her for being smart and blessed. Qinghe was also very happy to hear the praise, who doesn't want to listen to the birthday star praise people, not to mention that it is his little disciple who praises.
Qinghe discussed the words of prayer with the birthday star, determined the time to pray for the blessing, and took Yunyi to wait quietly on the side, there are too many people who came to celebrate the birthday today, and everyone lined up to talk to the birthday star in the hope of getting lucky.
Sitting until a quarter of an hour before the start of the meal, the lively scene on the stage finally eased, Qinghe straightened his clothes and hair, pulled Yun Yi to tidy up a little, and then took Yun Yi to the stage.
Yun Yi was stunned, afraid that he would start singing as soon as Qinghe spoke, and then he couldn't help laughing, but what should he do.
However, after Qinghe came to the stage, he did not open his mouth to sing, but solemnly opened his mouth, said a prayer for blessings, and after he finished speaking, he said some words of blessing.
After finishing speaking, Qinghe looked at Yun Yi, and Yun Yi thought about it and howled milkily.
"I wish the birthday of the star, blessings like the South China Sea, and longevity than the green mountains." Silently replacing the two place names, Yun Yi, who had finished howling, looked up at the master.
Qinghe bent down and patted Yun Yi's little head with relief, and then carried her off the stage.
Qinghe took Yun Yi through the table that had been seated and waited for the birthday star to open the table, everyone looked at Yun Yi with a smile, and touched Yun Yi when they passed by, and touched the little tugging on Yun Yi's head, like a little madman.
Erniu led them to the main table, and Qinghe sat on the bench beside him with Yunyi in his arms.
Shou Xinggong took a bite of the dish first, and then announced the opening of the table, Qinghe handed the dishes and chopsticks to Yun Yi, Yun Yi took it and hugged it in his arms, because he was still small, so even if he sat at the main table, he could only see a hairy head snuggled next to Qinghe Dao.
The dishes on the main table are all stewed softly, and the heads of each family sit here, so the food is soft and easy to digest. Qinghe gave Yun Yi a few chopsticks to digest the dishes, and left her alone for the time being.
Yun Yi held her bowl, holding the wooden chopsticks that were a little too long for her in her right hand, and pulled the food into her mouth, making her stop her movements with just one bite, well, a little salty.
Probably for the sake of eating, Yun Yi ate two bites and wanted to drink water, so he put the bowl on the bench, then twisted and climbed down the bench, holding the bowl to the kitchen to find some water to drink.
"What's wrong?" Qinghe patted Yun Yi's head and asked softly.
"Go to the kitchen and drink water~" Yun Yi replied with his neck tilted.
Also, usually in the view, the food everyone eats is relatively light, and today's meal is indeed a little salty: "Well, don't bother people too much when you go, drink water and eat the meal obediently, not enough to come to me." ”
"Okay~" After speaking, Yun Yi rushed to the kitchen with the dishes and chopsticks.
Erniu's daughter-in-law found Yun Yi who probed her brain, although she didn't know her, but the only one wearing a small Taoist robe was the Taoist master and apprentice of Qingyunguan who was invited today.
So he walked over and brought her in, picked her up, and teased: "What's wrong with the little Taoist?" But do you want to drink *******? ”
Yun Yi grew so big, no one had ever teased her so much, and she instantly blushed to the base of her neck, which made several eldest daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law who were busy in the kitchen laugh.
Yun, who didn't say a word for a long time, was red-eared, Gan, I won't be afraid if you make other jokes, this is ...... This Nimado is embarrassed.
"Okay, second sister-in-law, don't tease her, be careful and wait for the next chief to settle accounts with you." The third granddaughter-in-law quipped while lighting the fire.
Seeing that the fire was still burning, he got up and scooped a spoonful of the sweet soup that had been made on the stove and put it in a bowl, moved a small stool and placed it on the side of the small kitchen table, and then led the blushing Yunyi over. "Well, ignore her, she's always been crazy."
Yun Yi took a few sips of the sweet soup and suppressed the salty taste in his mouth.
There is not much sweet soup cooked in the pot, which shows that this is a treatment that only the main table can enjoy. There is no dessert on the other guest tables.
Yun Yi simply stayed in the kitchen and finished lunch, and by the way, he chatted with several daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law in Lizheng's family.
The cloud nagging tool man is online
After eating lunch outside for nearly an hour, the main table had long been withdrawn, and the old birthday star had also taken a nap, leaving the guest tables to enjoy the rare leisure time.
Qinghe accompanied several old people to review the past, and he couldn't get out for a while.
Yun Yi stayed in the kitchen all the time, being fed a mouthful of left and right, and fed a round belly.
Yun Yi really couldn't eat it, and seeing that the daughters-in-law didn't mean to stop, she could only shamefully sell cuteness, touch her round little belly, and smile at the daughters-in-law. Whispered to ask if he could bring a little relief to the senior brothers and sisters on the mountain.
Looking at Yun Yi's cute little appearance, the daughters-in-law smiled and fell down. Dial a little from each of the dishes left for her, put it on with a big bamboo tube, and then hang it behind her back, watching the little person carrying a big bamboo tube, everyone laughed and fell down.
After getting the food, Yun Yi didn't mind this image problem, and kept making them happy with his witty words.
By the time the banquet was completely dismissed, Yun Yi's face was already stiff with a smile.
Hey, today is also a day of hard work for everyone to be fed~
