Chapter 20 The moon enters the courtyard and the mirror is round
Thirty-sixth lot.
In the corner of the hall sat a monk knocking on a wooden fish, he opened his eyes and slowly asked Xue Mingcan what he was asking for.
"I ask for marriage." Xue Mingcan placed the sign on the table.
"The sycamore leaves will fall in autumn, and the moon will break the mirror in the garden. There may be a round time or a shortage, and Vientiane will renew the wood in spring. "The monk is old, and when he reads out the signature, he has a sense of vicissitudes of time, "The fate of the two donors is destined in their previous lives, and it is a match made in heaven." Just as the moon is cloudy and sunny, there is no smooth sailing in this world, and there is no eternal tribulation. The female benefactor listened to the poor monk, and the dead wood also had spring. ”
Xue Mingcan was surprised, she couldn't help but look at Li Huaishu who was calm, how could this be possible?
"I'm afraid the master is wrong, the elders in the family have already chosen a son-in-law for me. I met him just in Pingshui, and seeing him again today is purely a coincidence, how can it be said that it is destined for fate? ”
The monk handed the signature and the signature to Xue Mingcan: "It won't be wrong, it won't be wrong." ”
Until Li Huaishu put the signature back, Xue Mingcan was still reading those few sentences. The old monk's unsigning is too surprising, the fate of the previous life, how is this possible? Today, when the old monk saw that the person beside her was Li Huaishu, he said that Li Huaishu and her were a match made in heaven, if today's person was Shen Qiushui, he also said that she and Shen Qiushui were a match made in heaven?
There may be a round time or a shortage, and Vientiane will renew the wood in spring. This is nothing more than that things are changeable, and there are always good and bad. Everyone understands this truth, so why do you need to say it specifically in the signature. If that lady had drawn such a lot, it must have been very good. She shook her head and accepted the signature casually.
"Do you believe what he says?" Before this, Li Huaishu never thought that anyone would say that he and a girl who grew up outside and did not receive an education in the boudoir of etiquette were a match made in heaven, and I am afraid that no one would believe in this match made in heaven.
But he believed.
"I don't believe it. This kind of thing is destined in a previous life, and there is no way to prove it. Xue Mingcan and Li Huaishu walked out of the hall, "It's a coincidence that I met you today, I thought I would never see you again!" ”
"Would you love to see me again?"
"Of course!" Xue Mingcan said calmly, without half a point of tactfulness and twisting, "You are my patient, I always want to see if you have fully recovered." Now it seems that you are fine. ”
Li Huaishu saw the clarity in Xue Mingcan's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "I originally planned to visit and thank you in Qiuye Mountain, but I was busy with family affairs. ”
Xue Mingcan said that it doesn't have to be like this. Her master, Ye Rong, set up a maze in front of the courtyard in order not to let others disturb her. After saving Li Huaishu this time, he must know how to go out of the maze, and when he returns to Qiuye Mountain, he must rearrange the formation with his master.
Li Huaishu and Xue Mingcan found a small pavilion with few people and sat down.
"How did you get to the capital, did you come with your master?"
Xue Mingcan's master didn't know where it was yet. Although it was autumn, it was still a little hot, Li Huaishu's folding fan shook and shook, and the wind from the fan happened to run half to Xue Mingcan, giving her a little coolness.
She didn't talk about her grandfather's birthday and the Xue family, but only said that she was visiting the capital with a friend, and the master was still on the way, and she would meet him in a few days.
After Li Huaishu learned that Xue Mingcan lived in the inn, he lamented that the price of goods in the capital was high, and it would cost a lot of money to stay in the inn for a long time.
"I have a house in the west of the city, if you and your friends don't dislike it, you might as well go and live there." Li Huaishu said again, "If you save my life, I will always repay your kindness." There are a few people cleaning there, and it is very convenient for you to live. ”
"I'll have to ask my friends for their opinions."
In the past, Xue Mingcan and Ye Rong traveled to other places, and there were also times when they lived in the homes of acquaintances. Those acquaintances were either friends of the Master, or patients he had helped.
After a long time, Xue Mingcan and Li Huaishu said goodbye.
The puja was over, and Master Huiyi walked slowly into the inner room, where Li Huaishu was sitting. Huiyi smiled kindly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been waiting for a long time. ”
Li Huaishu got up and was very respectful and polite: "Master, farewell to Qiuye Mountain, don't come unharmed." ”
"Yes, yes." Master Huiyi was the monk who played chess with Li Huaishu on Qiuye Mountain that day.
The pilgrims who listened to the puja came out one after another, and Xue Mingcan stood in the shade of the tree and waited, his eyes always falling on the steps.
Isn't it more important for people who are born and die to listen to the puja, worship the Buddha, and ask for protection, and what's the point of standing here? Xue Mingcan waited while wondering in his heart about Shen Qiushui, who was standing in the same shade as her.
Is...... How can you meet him like this?
"Garan!"
Garan finally came out. Xue Mingcan almost trotted up. Jia Lan naturally straightened Xue Mingcan's messy hair, and the two of them were like sisters.
"You're waiting for me here? It's not that it's good to meet at the front, it's hot here. ”
"I'm in the shade of a tree, it's not hot." Xue Mingcan was just a little thirsty, he had just talked to Li Huaishu for so long, and he didn't drink any water, "How about the Fa?" Are you hungry? ”
Shen Qiushui walked up the steps and stood beside a woman and talked to her. That's Mrs. Shen. Xue Mingcan felt that Mrs. Shen's gaze was on here from time to time, and she couldn't help but guess, did this Mrs. Shen see something? Garan hasn't shouted "Mingcan" until now.
"I've heard that there is fasting here, so why don't we come and try it." Jia Lan wasn't hungry at all, she thought, Xue Mingcan should be hungry.
The two walked down the stairs, and Mrs. Shen suddenly stopped Jialan. Xue Mingcan was puzzled, it turned out that the person Mrs. Shen was looking at was Jialan, did she know Jialan?
Shen Qiushui walked with Mrs. Shen, looking at Xue Mingcan and Jia Lan with an indifferent and unscrupulous expression, as if the two of them were the prey that had been captured. This gaze made Xue Mingcan very uncomfortable, and she felt offended. Arrogant and rude, Xue Mingcan gave Shen Qiu an underwater evaluation. She glanced at Shen Qiushui casually, and didn't give him another look.
