(3) The road is narrow
In Ruoqiang City, not far from the dilapidated temple, gathered the lowest people in Ruoqiang City, where the houses are piled up, the dilapidated and semi-new alternate with each other, most of the courtyard is stacked with yellow stones at will, an old monk in tattered clothes walked through a road surrounded by two carts surrounded by this stone, turned a corner along the long yellow wall and came to a door engraved with the symbol of Buddhism in front of the door, and pushed the door in.
"Xiaoxi, are you taking in orphans again?"
Luo Xiaoxi was busy with the work in his hands, and said: "Her name is Carp, and she will be my sister in the future, and she will also be the sister of stones and water plants." ”
Banxiu looked at the place where there was a little girl sitting in the courtyard, folded his hands and said a word, Ani Buddha turned his head to look at Luo Xiaoxi in front of the stove opposite, and said: "The poor monk happened to pick you up by the stream at the beginning, and this time named you Xiaoxi." You are becoming more and more proud, what stones, water and grass, and now there are carp, streams, streams, streams, you didn't hug the Buddha's feet in your previous life, so in this life, my Buddha has compassion and sent your family to suffer with you? ”
Shi Shi "hey", shook his head while continuing to wipe the table, and the eight-year-old Shuicao on the side stared at the two cute little buns and glanced at Brother Shi, and helped to set the dishes and chopsticks. Luo Xiaoxi was afraid that the carp would think too much, so he looked up at her, and saw that she was just sitting there in a daze, so he threw a chopped firewood at the feet of Banxiu, and said, "My mouth is so owed, why didn't my Buddha take you away?" ”
"Oops"
Banxiu jumped to dodge the "hidden weapon" thrown by Luo Xiaoxi, causing the stones and aquatic plants on the side to laugh wildly, and the carp that was originally bitter also raised the corners of his mouth.
"Slow, this taste is ......" Banxiu put down one of his raised feet, and moved his nose towards the side of the fire, "Steamed buns with pickles, Luo Xiaoxi, you are not ......"
Banxiu glanced at the carp over there, didn't Luo Xiaoxi use all his money to exchange for this girl, right? looked at Luo Xiaoxi with a steamed bun on his chopsticks and shook it, with a look on his face that if you dared to say it, he wouldn't be able to eat, and he knew that this must be true.
Banxiu saw that Luo Xiaoxi came over with a steamed bun in one hand and pickles in the other, so he took a steamed bun in his hand.
"Hey, aren't you too hot?"
"Yo-yo...... Scalded the poor monk, Yo Yo ......"
As he spoke, Banxiu tossed the steamed buns in his hand left and right, and finally used the rags on the cuffs to wrap and walked to the door.
"Where?"
He waved his hand behind him, and as he stepped out of the threshold, he said, "The Buddha said...... Don't say either. ”
In the downtown of Ruoqiang City, a Yunlai inn is like a cloud, and the front yard restaurant and backyard accommodation have attracted many businessmen who come to Ruoqiang. Yun Lai, the young boss of Yunlai Inn, explained that the people in front of him carefully served the big man in the Tianzi room, and walked to the backyard, and suddenly remembered that the big man mentioned that he forgot to bring a tea set, so he went to the warehouse and detoured.
"Yo...... People are really scared to death, brother, can you ...... next time"
Yun who was frightened by the figure in front of him covered his heart, the white-clothed monk, isn't this the legendary half-immortal who can predict the future life? But why did he show up on his way to the warehouse for no reason, and his treasures were hidden so tightly that even his own wife did not know about it, and this person, didn't he know about that place, and now came to steal his key?
Yun Lai deliberately used his long sleeves to hide his other hand that was touching the key at his waist, dragged his chin and said, "Hmph, today's monks don't stay in the temple well, but they also do such things like stealing chickens and dogs?" ”
The man didn't look back, but said in a somewhat old voice: "Ani Buddha, if the poor monk is such a villain, I am afraid that the things on the donor's waist are already in the hands of the poor monk, so why should I discuss the matter of stealing chickens and dogs with the donor here in an open and honest manner?" ”
"How do you know the key to my warehouse is on my waist?"
Yun Lai covered his waist with both hands and took two steps back. Observing the actions of the white-clothed monk in front of him, if this monk didn't come for the key on his waist, could it be that it was really the rumored half-immortal monk?
"You and I are destined, and I came here today just to send a word of advice to the donor."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and stuffed it into Yunlai's arms, and then disappeared in front of Yunlai's eyes, he looked at the empty place in front of him with a long mouth in surprise, wiped his eyes with both hands, and looked at the paper in his hand in disbelief.
On the other hand, Luo Xiaoxi, who was worried about her work, had not found a shop in the downtown for a long time, and the only restaurant that recruited dishes and chopping firewood, was cut into the queue by a sturdy man when she was queuing, and the shopkeeper in front of her did not pay attention to her arguments, so he directly hired the man who cut the queue, and laughed at her for not looking for a good husband to marry, and came to find a job.
If she is cut in line, even if she is in line, the snobbish shopkeeper may not hire her. But God, she has fallen to the point where she is worried about marriage by the restaurant shopkeeper? She is afraid that she will not be able to find a job.
Isn't it just that she just wants to recruit men, she Luo Xiaoxi can bend and stretch, so why worry about this little thing. So, for the sake of the courage that she still knew a few words, she changed into men's clothes and resolutely went to the Zhijing Book Club where the scholars in Ruoqiang City often came.
The president looked at the visitor with interest and said, "You mean you want to apply for a job as a scholar of our book club?" ”
"Uh-huh"
"Write a few words and see."
Luo Xiaoxi simply wrote the sentence "Anitabha" and handed over the paper, and said respectfully: "President, please take a look." ”
"Yo, this sentence is rarely written, but you are bold. Although this font is not excellent, it is still good......"
When the president was thinking about it, the paper in his hand was snatched away by someone who came, Luo Xiaoxi's small eyes widened, wasn't the person in front of him who wanted to blackmail money that day but was humiliated by the other party's words, the entire Ruoqiang City is so big, she can also meet him here, it is really a narrow road.
Fortunately, she didn't show her face that day, and he shouldn't have recognized her face.
"This word, neither strength nor beauty, if the book club is not in a hurry to recruit book boys, I advise the president not to give any sympathy, so as not to invite unnecessary incidents to himself."
"This son, this is the president's decision to use me, as a distinguished guest, you don't go to the side to drink tea but come to make trouble, is it possible that the son is a spy sent by other poetry clubs, can't we see our stop book club carry forward and recruit scholars?"
"But the book club can't do it just by being sharp, it's either a dignitary or a young lady who comes on weekdays, and fighting poetry is a common thing," Xu Ning turned the fan in his hand, went up to Luo Xiaoxi and patted it on the shoulder, "And as a scholar of the book club, if you don't have the ability to quickly record the oral articles of everyone, the consequences will be quite serious." ”
"You ......"
This person is specially here to pick on her thorns, it's really hateful. Luo Xiaoxi looked at his departing back, and wanted to steal the folding fan in his hand and tear it to pieces.
The president smiled knowingly, seeing that the next person was quite delicate and very clever, he stepped forward and said: "That's it, tonight our book club just has a bureau of fighting poetry, and the old ladies and ladies in Ruoqiang City are also endless, you can just stay and help for a day, how about I let the account room give you a tael of silver?" ”
One or two silver, if it is really a place like this, it is really generous, so she nodded hurriedly and agreed.
Said to be a helper, in fact, it was a kitchen handyman, here just boiled water, and there had to help wipe the tea set, just after being busy and saw that the pastry place over there was not enough, and immediately went to put the pastry on the plate, and finally finished loading the pastry Luo Xiaoxi wiped the sweat on his forehead, and was beating his waist to the table, seeing that the kitchen manager Zhang came in, he quickly straightened his waist.
"That's right, Rossisi, I don't have such a quick helper, I haven't met such a quick-eyed helper for a long time. There is a shortage of a scholar in front of you who pours tea and water, so you can try your luck and maybe get a lot of reward. ”
It was also expedient for her to name her men's clothes Rossisi, and she blamed herself for being dizzy when she was angry, and when the president asked her name, "So, Xixi thanked Zhang Da Steward here." ”
She ran over happily, and the scholar next to her happened to let her stand next to an empty position, and she looked up, and happened to see the man she wanted to steal his family's wealth. At this time, he was fighting poems with a middle-aged man in high spirits, and there was an uproar in the audience, and a high-haired elegant and luxurious woman shook a peony fan depicted by gold wire.
The woman next to her asked a woman of the same age, "Sister, do you know who she is?" ”
"Who else could it be, except for our Yunlai boss in Ruoqiang City, who would be able to afford such a luxurious woman."
"A relative of my mother-in-law is on an errand in this Yunfu, and I heard that she and the housekeeper of Yunfu are not clear, maybe she has already put a green hat on the boss of Yunlai."
"I don't look at her like a serious girl, she is a full fox charm in the style of a Qinglou woman."
Sure enough, being too eye-catching will attract women's jealousy.
"The two of them can be regarded as equal, Yihua has a shallow idea, I don't know what the two of them think?"
"But it doesn't hurt to say"
"I heard that a poet named Muzhi in the Central Plains made a poem for the Qingming Festival," Yihua turned the fan in his hand, and glanced at the middle-aged man from the corner of his eye, intentionally or unintentionally, "During the Qingming Festival, it rains a lot, and people on the road want to break their souls." By asking the restaurant, where is it, the shepherd boy pointed to the apricot blossom village. How about if one of the two can re-break the poem on the spot, without losing the artistic conception of the original poem? ”
"I think it's very good, what does Brother Fan Chuan think?"
"I ...... I was a little distracted when I listened to this poem, and I hope Brother Xu will forgive me. Du Fanchuan withdrew his gaze from this body, and saluted and said, "I am willing to compete with Brother Xu." ”
In this way, Du Fanchuan thought for a long time and did not move, but everyone below fell into a discussion, this seven-word poem was originally natural, plus the sadness between the words, if you really want to break the sentence again, I am afraid it will be a little difficult.
Luo Xiaoxi locked his eyes on Du Fanchuan's body, he looked at Yihua like this, either he had a bad idea of Yihua or he was an old acquaintance, and although this Yihua was facing Xu Ning, why did she rely on Du Fanchuan so closely, so she dared to assert that they must have ghosts.
