Chapter 13: Proverbs

Zhang Siye glanced at Mo Yanfei: "There are no beasts on this mountain, you don't have to be afraid." ”

"I'm afraid you won't be able to jump from here."

Zhang Siye didn't bother to pay attention to Mo Yanfei anymore, he continued to look at the smoke.

"Don't look at it, let's go down the mountain now and go to that house to see who we're cooking for."

Zhang Siye turned his head and stared at Mo Yanfei: "Your curiosity is too strong, there is a proverb in the West: Curiosity killed the cat." Meaning, curiosity kills cats. ”

Mo Yanfei blinked. Zhang Siye knew that this unlearned and unskilled Miss Mo didn't understand the meaning of his words, so he had to explain: "Western legends say that cats have nine lives, but in the end they die of their own curiosity. This proverb is a reminder that if you like to sniff around with your nose like a cat and are overly curious about things you shouldn't be interested in, then there is a good chance that these curiosities will cause you some unexpected trouble. ”

Under the wind on the top of the mountain, Mo Yanfei wiped his nose with the back of his hand: "Oh, it sounds reasonable, let's go back together." ”

Zhang Siye frowned: "Why didn't you bring a handkerchief." ”

"My handkerchief is for Mingxia." Mo Yanfei wiped his nose again as he spoke.

Zhang Siye reluctantly took out his handkerchief and handed it to Mo Yanfei, and then walked straight down the mountain.

Mo Yanfei followed behind Zhang Siye, saw a magnolia flower embroidered on this handkerchief, and asked, "You won't want this handkerchief, will you?" ”

Mo Yanfei saw that Zhang Siye didn't answer her, and then said: "Is the girl who gave you this handkerchief surnamed Mu, or does she have a blue character in her name?" ”

"This is a batch of handkerchiefs that the firm has just entered, and I didn't inquire about the surname of the embroidered girl. If you want, go to the comptoir and get ten. ”

"Since you said so, then I'll go and get ten handkerchiefs to-morrow."

"Pick two more clothes, you're welcome, Guo Shibao will send the bill directly to Director Mo." Zhang Siye said without replying.

"Well, of course you're welcome."

The two of them returned to Pujue Temple, and Master Zhiqing was still doing things. Mo Yanfei went to the backyard and found two cold steamed buns in the back kitchen, and she squatted in the kitchen to eat.

Feng Qiang didn't worry about Mo Yanfei, he walked to the back kitchen, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Mo Yanfei squatting on the ground eating steamed buns pitifully, and hurriedly said: "Don't eat cold steamed buns, I'll bake steamed buns for you." ”

Mo Yanfei stood up and said with a smile: "I still have to make a fire, it's too troublesome, I've eaten almost enough." ”

"A handful of firewood, you go into the house and drink a cup of hot tea, and the steamed bread slices can be roasted in a while." Feng Qiang said that he was going to make a fire.

"I really don't need to, I'm almost right to eat a steamed bun here, let's go back to the house together." Mo Yanfei said, put the other steamed bun back, and pulled Feng Qiang out.

Feng Qiang hurriedly pulled out his arm from Mo Yanfei's hand, "If you don't want to eat roasted steamed bread, then go back to the house to drink a cup of hot tea and eat some snacks, but don't eat cold steamed buns." ”

Mo Yanfei laughed dryly: "Well, let's go." ”

The two of them returned to the abbot's room, and saw Zhang Siye sitting at the table playing chess alone, Mo Yanfei said: "How boring, nothing to do, let's go back early." ”

"Master hasn't finished the Dharma yet, so let's wait."

Mo Yanfei blinked his eyes and asked, "Do you have something to do with Master?" ”

Zhang Siye dropped a white chess piece: "Well, I want to talk to Master." ”
