CHAPTER XXVII
On this day, Su Jin'an was writing a prescription in front of the table, and Powder Cream walked in with a teacup and whispered to Su Jin'an: "Miss, the Lin family is looking for people more diligently, and they are constantly sending more people." ”
Su Jinan took the teacup and drank a few sips: "News from the door?" ”
"Yes."
"Any news else?"
"There is also the master of the door who said that he wanted to bring Mr. An to the capital, saying that he would settle here in the future!" There was a smile in Powder's words.
Su Jinan also chuckled when he heard this: "This Si Tu really doesn't stop, but I haven't seen An Bai for a long time." ”
"The slave maid thinks that the master of the door may want Mr. An to be closer to the young lady, so that it is convenient for you to see a doctor."
"Maybe, but it's not a long-term solution for people like them to stay in the capital all the time, forget it, no matter what, anyway, if An Bai is here, Si Tu is estimated to be able to settle down a little."
Powder Frost listened and agreed: "Yes, only Mr. An can govern the door master, somehow it is clear that Mr. An doesn't even know martial arts, but the door master never refutes Mr. An's words." ”
Su Jinan smiled and didn't speak, a person like Si Tu who lives on the tip of a knife should be a very happy thing to have a person who is 100% trusted behind him.
Early in the morning of the second day, Su Jin'an went with Mei to greet the old lady, and the old lady asked Qin and Mei to take a few girls to Baekje Temple to worship, and let the children go out to relax, although it has passed the spring season, but the weather has not yet warmed up, suitable for travel, the old lady wants to let the children go out for a walk, and by the way, she also took Li Moqin out to see, Su Jin'an felt that the last "by the way" may be the point, and I don't know who is the one who is "by the way".
So, before noon, the carriage of the Su Mansion set off towards Baekje Temple, and the Qin family of the second room took the two concubines Su Chan and Su Juan to take a carriage, and the Mei family and Su Jinan could also take one, but Li Moqin said that he was strange and boring, and wanted to talk to his cousin, so he naturally got into a carriage with the Mei family and Su Jinan. Although he didn't want to sit together suddenly, Su Jinan still shouted with a smile: "Cousin." ”
Li Moqin pinched the handkerchief and smiled, took the initiative to hold Mei Shi with some familiarity, and said in a soft and soft voice: "I really envy the third sister-in-law, with such a beautiful and well-behaved daughter, the sister-in-law is really a blessed person." ”
There is no mother in the world who doesn't like others to praise her children, and Mei is no exception, although the words she said were disgusting, but her tone was proud: "She, she looks well-behaved in front of people, in fact, you don't know, she likes to be trick-or-treating with the second and fourth children when she was a child." ”
Li Moqin was a little surprised: "Really? It turns out that my niece is a lively child! ”
"Mother, don't expose my old bottom like this, I've been well-behaved and smart since I was a child!" Su Jin'an spoke, and took Mei Shi to her without a trace, I don't know why, Su Jin'an always couldn't appreciate Li Moqin's weak and sick temperament, and unconsciously wanted to stay away from her.
After listening to Su Jin'an's words, Li Moqin covered her mouth and laughed silently, and Mei Shi also laughed: "Your skin is really getting thicker and thicker, how can you boast of yourself so much, you really don't have the reserve of a girl at all, and you are not afraid of people's jokes." ”
Su Jinan said confidently: "My father said, the most important thing is to be happy, don't care what others say, and I'm not afraid of others laughing at me." ”
Listening to Su Jin'an talk about Su Mu, something crossed Li Moqin's eyes, Su Jin'an noticed it, but she didn't know what Li Moqin's different emotions represented, so she still said in a soft voice: "It seems that the third cousin is a good father who loves his daughter very much!" ”
"You see, I told her so many qualities that a girl should have, but she didn't remember it, so she remembered her father's crooked reasoning." Mei pointed at Su Jinan and complained to Li Moqin.
"What's the matter, I also remember my mother's words, I remember them all." Su Jin'an flattered Mei Shidao.
"Jin An must have remembered it, otherwise why would the old lady say that Jin An is a good boy who is sensible and reasonable?" Li Moqin took Su Jin'an's words and said to Mei.
Su Jinan leaned his head on the arm of the Dao Mei clan with a feeling that his reputation had been ruined: "Look, even my grandmother praised me, didn't I accidentally miss a horse in front of outsiders." ”
"You'll make excuses, I can't talk about you." Mei said helplessly.
Li Moqin looked at Su Jin'an and said: "Jin'an is still young, it's good to relax in front of her family, and the third sister-in-law doesn't need to worry, I look at Jin'an's character and envy it." After that, Li Moqin said affectionately to the Mei family next to him: "It's strange to say, I always feel very close to the third sister-in-law, your personality is a little similar to my eldest sister, so I always feel very cordial, if it weren't for the etiquette I should call you sister-in-law, I would prefer to call you sister-in-law!" ”
Mei Shi listened and said directly: "What's this, you think it's okay to come to my yard more after the day you fall in love with me, and we can talk together often." ”
"Okay, then I'll go more in the future, sister-in-law, don't bother me." Li Moqin whispered to Mei a little shyly.
"Okay, you can come." Mei affirmed.
Hearing Li Moqin's words to this extent, Su Jinan seemed to understand what the emotions she had just flashed were in her eyes, she was afraid that she really wanted to call Mei "sister", Su Jin'an couldn't help but feel a little cold when she looked at her, it was best not to have any crooked ideas, otherwise she would definitely let her know what it meant to regret not being at the beginning.
Su Jinan didn't participate in Mei's joke with Li Moqin anymore, but just lifted the curtain in the corner of the car window to look at the scenery outside.
It was noon when the carriage of Sufu stopped outside the gate of Baekje Temple, so the group was led by the little monk to the guest courtyard in the backyard to eat fasting, and then went to worship the Buddha in the afternoon. After everyone had dinner together, they went to the guest room to rest, Qin and Li Moqin went to one, Su Chan and Su Juan went to one, and Mei and Su Jinan went to one. When she returned to the guest room, Su Jin couldn't sleep, and saw that Mei had already fallen asleep, so she left Powder Cream to look at Mei and walked out alone.
At this time, it was the time for the lunch break, and there was basically no one to see in the Baekje Temple except for some monks who were walking around, and Su Jin'an was walking alone on the path of the temple, and there were trees casting mottled shadows on the ground. Su Jin'an was thinking about Li Moqin in his mind, and suddenly caught a glimpse of an acquaintance at the end of the road, the man was wearing a brown and yellow monk's robe, white beard and white eyebrows, and seemed to be an old monk with seniority, and when the person approached Su Jin'an, he also recognized him - no, he walked to Su Jin'an and stopped three steps away, put his hands together and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, donor, let's meet again." ”
"Master Budu? Aren't you supposed to be at Thanshyamaji Temple in Annam? How did it end up here? Su Jin'an was a little surprised that he would see Budu here.
Although he looks old, he is probably a monk and always gives people a sense of compassion for all sentient beings, and he originally practiced meditation at Castle Peak Monastery in Annam. After being rescued that year, although Su Jinan followed Su Mu's family to Huailing, she always wanted to find Shen Wanjun, to see people alive and dead to see corpses, a few years ago Su Jinan had been to Qingshan Temple alone, and accidentally met Budu only to know that he had collected a female corpse, after asking in detail, Su Jinan was sure that it was Shen Wanjun, and Budu also gave her a silver bracelet that Shen Wanjun carried. In the end, Budu also took Su Jin'an to worship Shen Wanjun's tomb, and from then on, when Su Jin'an went to visit Shen Wanjun, he would go to Budu to sit there for a while.
Budu was not surprised to see Su Jin'an, his tone was calm: "Don't be surprised, the host of Baekje Temple is Lao Gao's junior brother, some time ago the old host of the temple passed away, and the senior brother invited me to come and give a few days of menstruation to the disciples." I haven't seen the donor for a long time, and the donor not only did not let go of the blade in his heart when he came to Beijing, but made it sharper. ”
After listening to Budu's words, Su Jin'an smiled: "When did Master Budu learn to tell hexagrams, but what you said is quite accurate, I am very close to him now, and my blade is about to open." ”
"The donor has always been reluctant to let go of past grievances, and if he is too obsessed, he will eventually hurt others and himself." Budu made a gesture of "please" and led Su Jin'an to the Buddha hall.
Su Jinan followed Budu on the trail, jokingly: "You persuaded me like this when you first saw me, and you said it like this every time, but the Buddha gave you the task to persuade me?" ”
Budu twisted the Buddha beads in his hand: "The Buddha is profound, but the Buddha's meaning is simple, but the word 'good', Buddhist disciples should lead people to goodness as the way of Buddhism." ”
Su Jinan listened to Budu's words and asked: "Then since the disciples of Buddhism are bent on leading people to goodness and do not change their original intentions, aren't they also very obsessed?" Can it hurt others and hurt yourself? ”
Budu slowly stopped and turned his head to look at Su Jin'an: "Every time I talk to the donor, the donor can always attract stones from other mountains from different angles, and the ravine in the donor's heart is far from comparable." ”
Su Jin'an's face did not fluctuate when he heard this, but his words were full of depression: "That's probably because I am a 'person from other mountains'." ”
Budu didn't answer Su Jin'an's words again, but just recited another Buddha name: "Donor, when you get to the front of the hall, why don't you go in and ask for a signature?" ”
"I don't have anything to ask, what's the use of asking for it?" Su Jinan was not interested in asking for a signature, she felt that what to ask for should be a matter of probability.
"Encounter is fate, why not give it a try?" No crossing.
Su Jinan felt that what Budu sometimes said made some sense, so she reached out and took out a random one directly from the lottery holder, handed it to Budu and asked, "How about the master help me see this lot?" ”
Budu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Su Jin'an's approach, he took the bamboo stick and looked at it carefully, and then said to Su Jin'an: "No matter what the donor asks, it will come naturally, and this sign is signed." ”
"Then I'll borrow your good words." Su Jinan raised her eyebrows and said.
When Su Jin'an returned to the guest room where Mei was resting, Mei had already woken up, and was about to go to her, and when she saw Su Jin'an coming back, she didn't blame her, and after a little tidying up, she went to meet with Qin's and Li Moqin, and a few people worshiped the Buddha and were about to leave, Su Chan walked to Su Jin'an's side and said strangely: "Why doesn't my sister visit it?" ”
Su Jinan turned his head and smiled at her: "I, I have nothing to do with the Buddha." ”
Su Chan was shaken by Su Jin'an's sudden smile, and when she reacted, Su Jinan had already walked away with Mei Shi in her arms, she always felt strange when she thought about Su Jin'an's words, but she couldn't say it, so she had to throw away the thoughts in her mind and follow Qin to the carriage back home.
