Xun Qingran came out of the courtyard, her mind was a little dazed, and the picture scroll she had just seen appeared in front of her eyes.

"Grandma, what's the matter?" The bellflower was careful, and seeing that Xun Qingran's face was different, he asked on the side.

"Nothing?" Xun Qing said. That matter cannot be explained clearly in a few words, there are still many unclear points, and the less people know about such things, the better.

A few people walked along the bluestone road in the nunnery and went to the front.

"I can't survive, don't stop me, masters."

I heard a woman's cry around the corner in front of me, mixed with the crying of a child. Jizo-an has always been quiet, and here's what happened.

Xun Qingran turned the corner with the people, and saw a group of people surrounding the well in the nunnery. Among them, a young woman, with a child in her arms and a child in her hand, was about to jump into the well, but the nun next to her naturally pulled her and prevented her from jumping.

"Donor, everything is promising, like a dream bubble, the donor should come to his senses quickly." A very young female nun.

"The donor is a mother, not for herself, but also for the sake of the donor's two children. If there is anything, think about it slowly, and you can always get by. The other nun was older and advised.

"Donor, there is this well in the nunnery." Another dumbfounded nun Dao.

Seeing Xun Qingran and people coming around the corner, the older nun leaned into the woman's ear and whispered: "Sister-in-law Feng, that is the governor's wife, the most compassionate and benevolent, if you have any difficulties, you might as well beg the governor's wife, maybe it's good." ”

"Madam, great compassion and compassion for Avalokiteshvara, please be kind and save my children." The woman was pulled, unable to find a short sight, and listened to the words of the nun, and couldn't help but have some hope, seeing Xun Qingran approaching, she knelt on the ground with a thud, crying and begging.

"What's going on?" Xun Qingran asked.

An older nun stepped forward and asked Xun Qingran, saying that this woman was called Sister-in-law Feng, with two children, and made a living by washing clothes and sewing for people. Because of the difficulty, she begged to come to the Jizo Nunnery, and the monks and nuns in the Jizo Nunnery saw that she was pitiful and worked neatly, and sometimes used her to do some work and pay her wages.

Xun Qingran looked at the woman in front of her with her eyes, and saw that she was about in her early twenties, dressed in plain cotton clothes, with patches, melon seed face, big eyes, and quite pretty. The two children were also dragged to their knees by her, the older was no more than four or five years old, and the younger looked no more than one or two years old, and they were all dressed in tatters.

"Grandma, the last time we came, the maid saw her." Malt whispered to Xun Qing.

As soon as Malt said this, Xun Qingran also remembered that she had seen this woman in the nunnery before, and she always knew the rules very well, and when she saw her, she would salute and say goodbye. However, Xun Qingran has people around him, and he will not allow strangers to approach easily. Therefore, I have a very weak impression of this sister-in-law Feng.

"The woman kowtows to her wife." Sister-in-law Feng said.

"Bring some silver to this sister-in-law." Xun Qingran commanded.

Kikyo took the ingot of silver and handed it to Sister-in-law Feng.

Feng refused to answer.

"Madame is indeed a living bodhisattva of great compassion, but although the women of the people are stupid, they are not willing to accept money in vain." Sister-in-law Feng said.

"Oh?" Xun Qing was surprised, this sister-in-law Feng doesn't want silver?

"The people's women are really hard, and the people's own lives are just hard, and now they are still involved in these two children, for the sake of these two children, the women ask Mrs. to be the master of the mothers and children of the people's women." Fung said.

The older woman next to her had red circles in her eyes, and the nun with a spirit moved a chair and asked Xun Qingran to sit down.

"The folk woman was originally from the village of Eighteen Miles outside the city, and her parents decided the family affairs since she was a child. After the folk woman married, she was also a husband and a wife, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, and the folk woman and man passed away in the second year, leaving a folk woman, who was helpless, and there were ruffians who often came to the door to make trouble, and the folk woman really couldn't survive, so she sold her property and moved to the city to live. Feng talked about her background.

This life experience is quite familiar, Xun Qing said in his heart.

"The folk woman wanted to die like this, but it was really difficult to be a woman." Feng wiped his tears.

Xun Qingran nodded secretly, men are inferior to women, women are almost a product of higher than cattle and sheep, and it will naturally not be easy for a woman to live alone.

"The women opened a small shop, and there was no man, and there were always people to make trouble. Later, a military master came, and he took care of it all the time, and it got better. Therefore, the woman invited her neighbors to testify and remarried the military master. After these four or five years, two sons were born, during which the military master had to go around socializing, and the women didn't know how much money they spent. I hated the ungrateful thief who was promoted, but he left our mother and son and went to office alone, and the women of Shem were so miserable. Feng covered his face and cried.

Xun Qing dyed and stroked his forehead, this Feng family was deceived by someone

"Without money, the women's shop can't be opened, and the women have to raise the two children alone, and the rest of the family is used up, so they come out to wash and sew clothes for others. You can earn a few pennies a day, the women are not afraid of frugality, and some people bully the orphans and widows of the women, and the women think of the sad place, but they really can't see the way to live, so they have the idea of a hundred times. ”

The slightly older nun next to her was already crying, Xun Qingran had heard that this nun was also a young widow, was robbed of her property, and was lonely and helpless, so she left home, and now listening to Feng's life experience, it is inevitable to think of herself.

"Sister-in-law Feng, who is your husband, why don't you go to him? With a lady in charge of you, what are you afraid of? The nun said to Sister-in-law Feng.

Sister-in-law Feng bit her lip, "That ruthless thief won't want us, let's look for it, what good life do we have." Please ask the lady to take in the mother and son of the people, the women of the people cook, do needlework, and do rough work, and the women can raise their own children, and only ask the lady to shelter the mother and son of the people. Feng said.

It seems that Feng is a strong woman, willing to work to support her two sons, and asked for asylum out of helplessness.

Xun Qingran thought about it for a while, then called the malt forward, whispered a few words, and sent the malt away.

"Where do you live now, who are the people who bullied you, who is the father of this child, where is any official position?" Xun Qingran asked.

"The women don't want to take revenge now, they just ask their wives to take care of our mother and son, and there will be a peaceful life from now on." Sister-in-law Feng said.

It is easy to raise one or two people in the Governor's Mansion, but Xun Qingran doesn't want to bring back people from unknown backgrounds.

"If you don't have anywhere else to go, stay in the nunnery for a few days, and I'll let the master take care of you." Xun Qingran said, and stood up.

"Madame, Madame, walk slowly. If the lady refuses to take in our mother and son, the woman of the people implores the lady to uphold justice and give back to the husband of the woman. ”

"Fourth sister-in-law, don't be deceived by this slut's lies." There was a shout from afar.
