Chapter X

If you don't bother yourself, others will never be able to bother you. Because of your own heart, you can't let go. There are causes and conditions that come and go, and gains and losses are not up to one's own will.

Shu Yan sat in the room with his head propped up, his mind didn't know where he had gone, his eyes were looking at the raindrops outside the window in a daze, he had been to Qingshan Temple for more than half a month, today was the first time it rained, Shu Yan didn't go anywhere, he stayed in his room.

Every day, I get up at five o'clock in the morning to follow the master here to do morning classes, and I go to bed at ten o'clock in the evening, and I am stunned to adjust my biological clock.

In fact, Shu Yan didn't come here like other people to meditate, eat fasting, chant scriptures, meditate and taste Zen tea every day.

Most of the time, it is more of a daze here, copying scriptures, Shu Yan is not like other people who come to practice meditation, but every year they will come here to empty themselves, just like many people like to travel to relax, she herself likes to come here every year, listen to the temple bells, eat fasting, taste Zen tea with the host master here, play chess, and copy scriptures for family and friends.

Before this, Shu Yan had already copied the scriptures for his family and friends as in previous years, but today Shu Yan had been sitting in the room for a morning, and had been wondering whether to be for Chu Yan this year, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.....

"Sister Shu, are you there"?

Hearing the sound of the empty Shu Yan shook his head and retracted his thoughts, stood up, walked over to open the door, looked at the waist that had just arrived at his waist, holding an umbrella in one hand and touching his bare head with the other, and asked the air: "What's wrong with the light." ”

When he heard Shu Yan call him like this, he shook his bare head, and complained in his heart that Sister Shu had been here for more than half a month, but she still hadn't changed, like a child who hadn't grown up, she always made fun of herself.

Thinking about it, he put on the appearance of a little adult, and deliberately coughed twice, cleared his throat and said to Shu Yan: "Sister Shu, I called Kong, not Guangguang, don't call it wrong, the master asked me to come over and invite you to come over and taste tea and Zen together." ”

Shu Yan saw the empty serious appearance, and sighed that it was still the cuteness of the light he just met when he just came last year, and then looked at the current light, he was about to become his master, so he deliberately followed his example, deliberately coughed twice, cleared his throat and smiled at the empty and said: "Okay, I know, but how do I remember that someone liked me to call him that last year." ”

Hearing Shu Yan say this, he raised his head and looked at Shu Yan for a while, and said with a breath on his face: "Sister Shu, that was when I was young last year, and the master said that I would call my Dharma name here." As he spoke, he took Shu Yan to find his master.

Saying that, Shu Yan held up an umbrella and followed Guangguang to listen to Master Hui, looking at the Guangguang walking in front of him, remembering that he was only 10 years old this year, and when he first came to live last year, he found him entering the temple to steal food, and then Master Tinghui here knew that he was an orphan and accepted him, he was only 9 years old at that time, thin and small, and he didn't dare to speak loudly, he just followed him all day long, but he didn't expect that only a year had passed, and he was completely like a different person.

After turning a few corners, he arrived at the tea room, Guangguang looked at Shu Yan and said with a smile: "The master is in the tea room, Sister Shu, you can go in."

"Okay, thank you Guangguang" said and went into the house to find Master Hui, leaving only Master Kong, who heard her call herself Guangguang again, and was stomping his feet angrily

After Shu Yan went in, he saw Master Tinghui sitting behind the curtain, so he smiled and lifted the curtain and went in, and said with a smile: "Why is Master Tinghui free to find me today?"

"I was busy before, and I didn't see Miss Shu Yan, but today the weather is just right, so I asked Miss Shu Yan to drink tea with me." Listening to Master Hui, he said with a kind smile on his face.

I thought that the weather was really good, and it was raining when I came over just now, and then, when I saw the tea set in front of me, I smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then let me make a tea for Master Tinghui today, and see if my tea art has improved."

"Please

Shu's father likes to drink tea, Shu Yan learned to make tea since she was a child, and every year when she comes to Qingshan Temple, Master Tinghui will also test her tea art. Over the years, a series of actions to make tea (warmware, tea, brewing, and pouring tea) are also very smooth and beautiful.

After a while, after the tea is brewed, Shu Yan pours the brewed tea into the tea sea, and then pours it from the tea sea into Master Tinghui's teacup (tea cup). Finally, place the tea in front of Master Tinghui's right hand, and Shu Yan reaches out to make a gesture of inviting tea.

Listening to Master Hui's movements, he didn't speak, smiled and stretched out his hand to pick up the tea in front of him, first looked at the color and shape, then took the cup and smelled the fragrance, and then sipped the soup to appreciate the taste.

And Shu Yan drank it all in one go.

Seeing Shu Yan's movements, I heard Master Hui say with a smile: "Tea art has improved, but Miss Shu Yan, the way you drink tea is still the same." ”

Although Shu Yan can make tea, he is actually not very fond of some other teas except fruit tea and flower tea, so he smiled and said, "Listen to Master Hui, in the past, there were people who used bowls to drink tea, and it was not in the way." ”

Listening to Hui said with a deep meaning, "Life is like tea, the deeper you drink, the easier it is to see the grid of that cup"

As he spoke, the two chatted over tea.

After a while, Guangguang came in and said, "Sister Shu, there is someone looking for you outside." ”

Shu Yan looked surprised, I don't know who will come to look for her at this time, at this time of year, no one usually comes to look for her, just thinking about it, I heard Master Hui say: "Miss Shu Yan has been here for so many years, it's the first time someone has come up to look for her, let's go and have a look." ”

Thinking about Shu Yan, he stood up, said goodbye to Master Tinghui, walked to Guangguang and asked, "Who is looking for me?" ”

"I don't know, I haven't seen it, he said it's your friend," said Guangguang touching his empty head.

When he arrived at the front hall, Guangguang pointed to Chu Yan with his back to Shu Yan and said, "Sister Shu is that person, he said he was looking for you."

When Chu Yan heard the voice, he turned his head and saw that Shu Yan's long hair was scattered behind him, wearing a pea-green ankle-length skirt with a belt tied around his waist, which made people look tall and white. Seeing that Shu Yan suddenly felt that she had worked overtime for two weeks, it was worth it to come here to find her, and when she thought about it, she unconsciously put a smile on her face and walked towards Shu Yan.

Shu Yan looked over and saw that Chu Yan, who was wearing a well-tailored gray suit, stood not far away with a smile on his face, walking towards him with a gentleman's pace, looking at Chu Yan like this.

When Chu Yan came over, he saw Shu Yan looking at him as if he was in a daze, and while stretching out his hand and shaking it in front of Shu Yan, he smiled unconsciously and said with a doting smile: "Why don't you know me?" ”

Shu Yan reacted, looked at Chu Yan, who was just in front of him, touched his neck with his right hand and asked, "Why did you come here?" ”

"I came to City B on a business trip, and I thought you were here, so I came up to see how you were here." Chu Yan pretended to be very casual and smiled at her and said that he didn't tell her that he came over to look at her on purpose. He continued, "What were you doing? ”

Shu Yan thought that he had come to see him on purpose, but he was a little embarrassed to say this: "I was drinking Zen tea with the master here just now." As he spoke, he heard the bell, looked at the time, and knew that it was time to eat in the evening, so he said to Chu Yan: "Have you eaten, I'll take you to eat here for fasting." ”

"Okay, I haven't eaten it either."

As soon as he entered the dining hall, Guangguang ran over and said, "Sister Shu, I'll help you cook well." ”

"Guangguang, my sister's friend came to see me, he is also going to eat here, you go over and sit first, my sister will take my brother to eat" Shu Yan said to Guangguang with a smile

Guangguang touched his head and looked at it, not knowing what he was thinking, and then said after a while: "Sister Shu, you take your brother to sit first, and I'll help my brother get food." So saying, he ran to get food.

Chu Yangang had been watching the interaction between Shu Yan and Guangguang from the side, and then teased Shu Yan and said, "It seems that you are doing well here?" ”

"That is, life here is the easiest one," he said, taking Chu Yan with a light position.

Pushing his own rice to Chu Yan, Chu Yan looked at the white rice and a few green vegetables and a little white tofu in front of him, and looked at Shu Yan with a little surprise on his face, Chu Yan really hadn't eaten such a plain dish when he looked so long.

When Shu Yan saw Chu Yan's appearance, he laughed directly and said, "The food here is like this. ”

After a while, I saw Guangguang coming over with a bowl full of rice and said, "Sister Shu, let's eat" Shu Yan looked at the rice in front of him, and suddenly he couldn't laugh, because he didn't like to eat the food here. But there is no leftover food here, and he looked at Guangguang and said with a depressed face: "Guangguang." ”

"Sister, the master said that eating fast is to accumulate good fortune, and it can't be wasted."

Chu Yan looked at the food in front of Shu Yan and knew the amount of food Shu Yan ate, so he smiled and said to Shu Yan: "Eat first, I'll help you eat if you can't finish eating."

Saying that, the three of them ate separately, and in the end, Chu Yan saw that Shu Yan couldn't eat anymore, so he helped her finish eating.
