Chapter 61: The Life of the Living Goes On

Regarding the affairs of Kyoto City, Shen Xiaoyu listened to Yu Ping very carefully, and in the end, Shen Xiaoyu said: "Then Kyoto City should be really good, at least the craftsmen will not starve to death!" ”

"Although I can't die of hunger, if I want to live well, I still want to seek an ultimate, just like scholars want to take the top prize, and the same goes for craftsmen, three hundred and sixty lines, and the line will be the champion." Yu Ping said.

Shen Xiaoyu saw that Yu Ping said so much, so he said, "Teacher, you seem to be very familiar with Kyoto City, do you always go to Kyoto City?" ”

Yu Ping smiled bitterly: "Yes, if you don't go, you can't do it, none of the disciples in a group will be worry-free!" After that, he left first, as if he didn't want to say too much.

Shen Xiaoyu pondered, this Yu Ping's disciples should all be big officials, and the disciples became big officials, shouldn't he, who is a teacher, be happy?

The day will soon come to the Midyear Festival, the Qin family is going to the temple to pray for blessings, and the carriage has already arrived at the other courtyard early in the morning to pick up people.

When she returned to Qin's house, Shen Xiaoyu was still dressed in men's clothes, and Qian Yuemei said when she saw it: "What kind of dress is this, why is it nondescript?" ”

Qin Huaijin explained: "Isn't this better, it's not very eye-catching to look at." ”

Qian Yuemei thought about it, it is indeed not good for her son to always be with a woman.

Shen ...... Erya, ah...... "Qian Yuemei felt that her tongue was numb, because the name Erya was too rustic.

Shen Xiaoyu hurriedly said: "Madame, I Xiaoyu is fine, the young master gave it up!" ”

Qian Yuemei nodded: "Well, Xiao Yu, how is the young master's body in the past few days?" ”

"Mother, I'm fine, I'm in good health, let's leave for the temple quickly!" Qin Huaijin said that he would accompany Shen Xiaoyu to Sihe Village to pay tribute today, and if he delayed it any longer, he would not be able to pray for happiness when it was dark.

The Qin family got into the carriage, and Shen Xiaoyu followed, and when the temple prayed for blessings, she didn't forget to take out the purse she had embroidered a few days ago and bow down in front of the Bodhisattva.

"Here's for you." Shen Xiaoyu took the purse after the "enlightenment" to Qin Huaijin.

Qin Huaijin took it and saw that the purse was very small, not like it was used for stuffing, so he asked, "What is this?" ”

Shen Xiaoyu directly took the thing and put it on Qin Huaijin's neck, and said, "The peace and blessing I embroidered will bless you from getting sick." ”

Qin Huaijin had also bought a lot of things in Shen Xiaoyu's stall before, but none of them were exquisitely embroidered.

This purse was embroidered by Shen Xiaoyu when Qin Huaijin was sick, she didn't believe in ghosts and gods before, but at that time, she thought, if there is really a Bodhisattva Immortal who can bless Qin Huaijin to get better quickly, she will believe that there is a Bodhisattva in the future!

"Thank you." Qin Huaijin was very happy, and it was not difficult to hang a small purse around his neck, so he put it directly in his clothes and carried it with him in the future.

Shen Xiaoyu looked at Qin Huaijin happy, and he was happy. Later, she heard Fu'an say why Qin Huaijin fell ill, at that time, in her heart, she felt that Qin Huaijin was a very important person to her.

After praying for blessings in the temple, Qin Huaijin came over to say goodbye to his father, and Master Qin didn't say anything, so he asked him to be careful all the way back.

"In such a hurry? I want to take you to talk to the abbot more! Qian Yuemei said that she came to pray for blessings mainly for Qin Huaijin.

Qin Huaijin said: "The abbot must be busy today, so I won't bother, I still have to go back to the other courtyard, I can't finish a lot of homework, Mr. has to play!" ”

Qian Yuemei has no choice, nothing is more important than her son's future future, all her hopes now are on her son, and she can only let her son go back.

Fu'an rushed to the car, and Qin Huaijin saw that the temple behind him was no longer very real, so he said: "Go directly to Sihe Village!" ”

When Fu'an heard this, he was surprised: "Huh? Go there? Before that, there was a plague and a big flood, why did the young master go there? ”

Shen Xiaoyu also knew Fu'an's concerns, so he said: "If I don't get out of the village, I'll get out of the car, and then just walk over by myself!" ”

"It's okay, just go straight to it!" Qin Huaijin said, and then said to Fu'an: "If you are afraid, walk back by yourself, and we will drive to come back by ourselves!" ”

Fu'an smiled bitterly: "It's not okay to send the small ones!" "There is no way to reason with Qin Huaijin.

All the way to Sihe Village, Shen Xiaoyu went to see his home first, the newly built house has not lived for many days, it has collapsed at this time, and there is nothing left of the old house.

"What happened to the people here ......?" Shen Xiaoyu asked, ridiculous that she didn't know anything.

Fu'an said: "The next morning, the people from the Yamen came to collect the corpses, and no one knows how many people were buried, all of them were buried in the back mountain." ”

Qin Huaijin looked at Shen Xiaoyu and asked, "Let's go to the back mountain." ”

Shen Xiaoyu nodded and walked silently towards the back mountain.

When she arrived at the back mountain, there were indeed many graves, Shen Xiaoyu insisted at first, but when she saw the graves, she couldn't help it, and cried directly.

Qin Huaijin looked at Shen Xiaoyu crying, and didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only walk to the carriage and bring over all the paper people and paper horses that Shen Xiaoyu had pasted before.

Shen Xiaoyu was thinking about the bits and pieces of life at home at this time, although it was hard, most of them were happy memories. But now looking at such a large cemetery, she felt uncomfortable, and she didn't even know which grave bag belonged to her family.

Shen Xiaoyu took the paper money and directly scattered a lot of it, although he didn't know who was the grave, but they were all from the village.

Fu'an lit a fire, Shen Xiaoyu burned little by little, there was nothing when she was alive, and after she died, she burned so many of these things, and she didn't know whether it was useful or not, she just wanted a peace of mind.

The things were burned, and it was not too early, Shen Xiaoyu wiped the tears on his face, people can't be so sad all the time, they must always look forward, and the days of the living will continue.

"Let's go, go home!" Shen Xiaoyu said to Qin Huaijin with a smile: "The eldest brother of the scholar said that he stewed chicken at night, but there is nothing left when he goes back late!" ”

Qin Huaijin nodded: "En, go home!" Then he got into the carriage, and it ran down the dirt road at dusk, raising a puff of dust.

When he returned to the courtyard, the scholar said, "You can come back, just wait for the two of you!" With that, he went to the kitchen to serve meat.

Shen Xiaoyu saw that he hadn't eaten yet, so he asked, "The teacher hasn't eaten yet?" ”

The scholar brought the meat at this time and said, "Sir said, you have been thinking about eating chicken for several days, and you will not start the meal until you come back!" ”

When Shen Xiaoyu heard this, he smiled even more happily: "The teacher is so good!" ”

When the scholar heard this, he said, "I still stewed the chicken, and it was simmered for an afternoon!" ”

Shen Xiaoyu hurriedly said: "It's okay for the big brother of the scholar!" ”

The four of them sat down, Qin Huaijin first sandwiched a chicken leg for the teacher, and the other gave it to Shen Xiaoyu, and the scholar looked very desolate in his heart, so he put up a wing.

Shen Xiaoyu ate happily with a bowl, such a table of four people was like family to her.

…………

As soon as the Midyear Festival passed, Shen Xiaoyu read more actively and hard, Yu Ping said that she read more books than Qin Huaijin, but she didn't read carefully, so Shen Xiaoyu read books as long as she was free, and she couldn't forget it like Qin Huaijin, but as long as she could understand her meaning.

"Why haven't I seen you go looking for Lu Butterfly these days?" Qin Huaijin asked, even if there was a rest day, he didn't see Shen Xiaoyu running out, he really didn't listen to things outside the window, and only read the sage books.

Shen Xiaoyu said: "Butterfly has nothing to worry about, if something happens, she will definitely come here to find me, no news is the best news!" She is a hundred assured of Lu Butterfly, Lu Butterfly is not stupid, even if she arrives at the Gu family, it should not be bad.

At the same time, at the Gu family, Lu Butterfly was rubbing his clothes in the bathroom, tired and sweating!

She thought that coming back was to be a girl who brought tea and water, but she never expected that after Gu Siyan brought her back, she called the housekeeper, but there was a shortage of a girl who washed clothes and worked as a coolie at home, so she was sent here.

"These ladies are in a hurry to wear them, you wash these first!" The maid Chunmei held a few pieces of clothes and threw them over directly.

Lu Butterfly was very irritable in her heart, and said, "I'm washing the old lady's, aren't you also in a hurry?" ”

As soon as Chunmei saw that Lu Butterfly had an opinion, she said, "What is there to worry about the old lady, wash the lady first!" ”

Lu Butterfly gritted her teeth, there was no way, people couldn't help but bow their heads under the eaves, and this Chunmei was still the maid who followed Mrs. Jiao's side, and she usually had to give face to the housekeeper in the house, what else could she do?

After taking the clothes, he rubbed them, but Na Chunmei also said: "Rub it lightly, Madame's clothes are expensive, and no one cares if your hands are rotten, if the clothes are washed, be careful that Madame picks your skin!" With that, he turned around and left.

Lu Butterfly gritted her teeth, and when she saw Chunmei leaving, she deliberately rubbed two handfuls vigorously.

"I'm really bad too!" It turned out that she was still the little county lord of the palace, but now she has become a maid, and she suspects that her life is not good, and she has all the bad luck!

After the clothes were washed and dried, Chunmei came to pick them up, and no one came to pick up the rest of the old lady's clothes, so Lu Butterfly took them directly and sent them over.

The old lady's yard is relatively remote, and she also said to Shen Xiaoyu that the old lady of this family is a good person, but she is often unconscious.

As soon as she arrived at the old lady's yard, Lu Butterfly listened to the maid inside and said, "Old lady, why are you not sober again!" Put down the teapot first, it's the white porcelain of the official kiln! ”

Mrs. Gu looked at the white porcelain in her hand, she was in a trance, and she always felt that something seemed to have been done, and when she was in a daze, her hand slipped, causing the maid to exclaim: "Mom!" ”

Lu Butterfly just poked her head in and wanted to take a look first, when she heard the sound of "pop", she thought in her heart, the white porcelain of this official kiln is going to be scrapped!
