Chapter 283: Fasting
The two of them, Xuan Chu and Nian Fu, came to the canteen area on the east side of the temple, where there were several large houses, all of which were stoves and warehouses for cooking.
It is only open during the temple fair, and the people who come to cook are some local laymen, and there are also some good men and women, all of whom volunteer to make merit to help.
Everyone saw Xuan Chu and said, "Oh, this is the new little master in the temple this year?" ”
"The little master is here for dinner? ……”
In the face of everyone's cordial greetings, Xuan Chu was also a little flattered, so he smiled and said, "Yes, come to dinner, Auntie has worked hard......"
"It's not hard, it's also my blessing to be able to come to the temple to help work, little master, you wait, this is the master who helped chant the scriptures for the past two days, you wait, I'll serve you two food......"
Chu Chu smiled: "Brother Nian, you said that we will serve dinner later, do we eat in this pavilion, or do we go to the house to eat?" ”
Nian Fu smiled and said: "Tomorrow there will be a lot of people, you can eat together outside, see if you can see the scenery, see if there are any wonderful things!" ”
Chu Chu smiled: "That's what I mean, hehe, smelling today's food is so fragrant!" ”
Nian Fu said with a smile: "Yes, it's just that so many people eat that the food tastes stronger and feels more fragrant......"
"Come, little master, this is the meal for the two of you,......"
When Chu saw this aunt, he brought himself two meals. Could it be that on weekdays, I eat by myself, and this aunt makes the food in this temple?
There is still one thing that Chu has not figured out, that is, he has been here for a few months, it seems that there will always be someone in this temple who is waiting for him to cook here, no matter when he wants to eat, there is always a hot meal when the meal is ordered, although it is all some fasting rice, but it is very delicious and exquisite.
At the beginning, Chu Chu and Little Red Horse also studied this problem, that is, where is the person who cooks for them, no one has ever seen it, but there has always been a good meal, ah, when the temple fair in the temple is in the past few days, they don't come to cook. Therefore, I can only eat fast with the pilgrims in the temple.
Nian Fu said: "Auntie, everyone is queuing, don't we have to queue up?" ……”
"No, both of you are masters in the temple, you have worked hard, and if you line up, where will you have the energy to chant scriptures and practice things in the afternoon? Today's day is so important, I'm afraid that there are hundreds of ghosts in Linzhou City who need you to go over and avoid disasters! Auntie, this is what I want you to do to take a good rest and work hard for a while! ......," the aunt said.
Ji Chu smiled: "Brother Nianfu, let's go, thank you Auntie for cooking for us internally, no need to queue up!" ”
Nian Fu could only thank his aunt, and sat outside with Yi Chu by the pavilion with rice, there was a long corridor, all of which were tables and chairs for eating. I found a random place, and sat down to eat and drink.
Nian Fu looked at the long queue here for cooking, and lined up from the east wing to the gate, and there were more than four or five queues.
Nian Fu said with a smile: "I can't imagine eating with the master in the temple, and this convenience, look at the people in line, if the two of us line up, it doesn't mean that we can wait another hour or two to eat?" ”
Xuan Chu smiled: "How about following me to have food, I still invite you to eat rice, hehe......"
Chu said: "You taste the gluten of this rice, it is very delicious, sometimes every time I come with my mother, I really don't go up, just to eat this bite of gluten, pure gluten and wine melon, soup made of black vermicelli, although it is light, not as good as the gluten made at home, but it has a light and mellow taste, which makes people feel more deeply impressed than the greasy at home after eating!" Hehe, I think it's very good, I know you're used to eating and not getting used to it......"
Xuan Chu remembered the one who donated 10,000 yuan just now, Li Zixuan, that guy probably couldn't get used to eating the food in the temple, otherwise how could he say those words and quickly want to escape.
Ay! , Thinking about it, I feel that what I said is probably a bit out of place, maybe the family is not in good condition, for a child like me who has no home and can only be raised by the master to the temple to take in.
Xuan Chu thought that he couldn't eat anything delicious, and when he ate a little fast, he always felt very delicious when he saw this gluten, and everyone else was eating the delicacies of the mountains and seas at home, and how could he feel delicious when he ate these light meals!
After Yi Chu finished talking to Nian Fu, he felt regretful again, mainly because he remembered the Li Zixuan who donated just now.
I guess it's quite embarrassing, I thought it was to take others to eat that meal, how awesome it is, but people are the ridicule of the patient's family, I'm afraid he thinks that there is something to eat for this meal, their pigs and dogs are not eating, this little Taoist aunt actually led him to eat this kind of meal.
Xuan Chu said: "Brother Nianfu, if you can't get used to it, you can put this meal away, put it away, I'll help you eat it, and then when you go out, there is a restaurant on the edge of the small square outside, and I invite you to eat ramen?" ”
Nian Fu smiled: "Why did you suddenly remember to invite me to eat ramen, how can you be willing to take out your money to invite me to dinner? Hehe......"
Xuan Chu said: "Noise, you came to help, how can you say that I am too, the master you are also a distinguished guest, do I still let you be hungry to help chant the scriptures?" Then I'm afraid that the sutra you recite will also be weak, and it won't work! On an important day like today, you can't be fed to your heart's content, so when the time comes, you can recite the scriptures hard and help the soul to overcome the grievances! Hehe......
Xuan Chu thought to himself, it seems that his guess is correct, that is, everyone is not used to eating the fast food on this temple, which shows how pitiful he is, others are not used to eating it, and what he eats is a delicacy of the mountains and seas.
However, Xuan Chu is also grateful, the master can settle himself in this temple, and the immortals in the temple can give him a good meal and good dishes, to be honest, it is just that there is no meat in the fasting rice that is usually eaten, and sometimes at this time, when the vegetables outside are sold more expensive, the temple can eat fresh vegetables, in fact, sometimes it is not better than the current conditions at home.
Xuan Chu thought to himself, forget it, since everyone has this mentality, and my brother is not a bad person at the beginning of the year, there is no need to force others to live a hard life like himself, besides, everyone has their own life, and each person has his own life, and he can only accept his fate and others when he is born in this environment, so he naturally has the conditions for not accepting his fate.
Yi Chu ate a mouthful of gluten, and then took a bite of steamed buns and said: "It's delicious, hehe, it's as delicious as when I was a child, why don't they come to eat yet?" ……”
