Chapter 23: Spring Ploughing
Qingyun Temple, located in Qingfeng Mountain outside Qingyang County, was built 50 years ago, when Qingyun Temple was not as famous as it is now, just a small temple with only five houses.
Its fame began to slowly grow, that is, in the past two decades.
I heard that 20 years ago, there was a wandering monk who traveled here and lived in Qingyun Temple for a period of time, and felt that the terrain and scenery here were good, so he stopped here.
Since the monk lived in Qingyun Temple for two or three years, the reputation of Qingyun Temple has gradually risen, saying that the monk has good medical skills and profound Buddhism.
The family entered Qingyun Temple and saw that there were not many people in the temple, and they knew that they had come at the right time.
The family first went to the main hall together to burn incense, and then added sesame oil money.
Because I was begging for the safety of the temple, several children also got refreshments from the temple and a baked cake.
After burning the incense, the family went to the temple for two more laps, and finally came once, of course, to visit more.
They didn't see the presiding master of the temple, Master Qing'an, that is, the monk who had traveled back then.
They are not discouraged, I heard that in recent years, Master Qing'an is not in the temple, and he has gone out to travel again, it is luck to be able to see it, and it is normal not to see it.
It's winter now, and the scenery in Qingyun Temple is nothing to see, and the incense is burned, and the sesame oil money is added, and the family comes out of the temple.
It was not too early to come out of the temple, and thinking about what they needed to buy today, the family hurried to the county seat with an ox cart.
On the way to the county seat, Zheng repeatedly told a few children: "You must be obedient, don't run around when you get to the county, it's the New Year, there are many flowers in the county, and you won't be able to see your father and mother after you are photographed."
When the time comes, it is common to sell you to others as subordinates, and to be beaten and scolded.
Moreover, I heard that some children will be sold to others for funerals after being photographed.
Therefore, you play obediently and don't run around, when you get to the county, you have to follow your father and mother, don't get lost, if you get lost, you won't be able to find it. ”
None of the three of them have been to the county seat, and even if they did, they were very young, and they can't remember.
Hearing what Zheng said, the three of them were a little frightened, and subconsciously leaned close to each other's parents, and Youyi even grabbed the corner of his father's clothes.
Zheng is not lying, what she said is true, she has heard people say, but it may be more serious.
I remember that a few years ago, some people in the village said that the people from the village next door took the child to the county seat and lost it, and then never found it.
Since then, the people in the village have not taken their children to the county seat for nearly two or three years, and even the town has rarely been there.
"Dad, is what Grandma said true?"
Youcheng was older, and when he heard it, he asked his father.
"yes, really."
Yimu knows his son's urine nature, and he is afraid that he will feel that everything is novel when he enters the county seat, and it will be too late if there is really anything else.
So, when he knew that what his mother said was a little serious, he still chose to nod.
Youcheng looked at his mother again, and at this time, the Zhang family naturally wanted to stand aside with his mother-in-law and man.
"Look, your grandmother is right, if you run away and disappear for a while, I won't look for you.
And you have a letter, my mother knows that you are obedient, but my mother still has to tell you, don't run around when you get to the county seat in a while, you know? ”
"Mother, don't worry, I won't run around."
Youxin nodded obediently.
"Milk, I won't run around, I'll follow my father obediently."
Youyi on the side didn't wait for his parents to say it, so he echoed it on the side.
Wang and Erlin couldn't help but laugh when they saw Youyi's honest appearance.
"Alright, we'll be here soon, don't be so afraid, I'll take you to something delicious in a while."
Erlin went to the county seat more often, knowing that they would definitely want to look everywhere when they first came, and also knowing that they were frightened, so he eased their mood and said.
Sure enough, when they heard that there was something delicious to eat, the three brothers were much less afraid.
"Second uncle, what's delicious?"
You don't have to think about it, you know who asked this, and naturally it's delicious.
"This kid." Zhang made a gesture and slapped Youcheng, and said a little embarrassed.
"Hey, sister-in-law is fine, child." Erlin understands sincerity very well, and there is sincerity in the first place, but this character is not.
After talking to Zhang, Erlin said to Youcheng and his children: "You will know what is delicious in a while, and I won't tell you now." ”
Now the three brothers are thinking about what their second uncle and father said about the delicious food, and they are more eager to go to the county seat, and they can't wait to arrive immediately.
Under the eagerness of the three Youcheng brothers, they finally arrived.
After entering the city, there is a special place to store the carriage and horses in the city, but you have to give money, and an ox cart costs two pennies, otherwise you can only find a remote place to put it and arrange someone to guard it yourself.
Erlin also knew a little about this, thinking that the family had finally come to this county seat, and leaving one person to come down to see what was the matter, so he proposed to leave the ox cart at the car dealership.
"Dad, mother, let's park the ox cart at the car dealership, it's also convenient."
The Zheng couple were not very clear about this, so they agreed.
When the group drove the ox cart to the carriage and horse shop, and then saw that Erlin took out the money to the other party, the Zheng family was a little reluctant, and pulled Erlin aside before Erlin gave the money.
"Erlin, why do you still pay for it?"
"It's such a mother, you need to give two cents to park the ox cart here, this is the rule here." Erlin explained to Zheng.
"Just park a car and have to pay for it?"
"Mother, you can't think so, you think, we don't have to park the car here without guarding it ourselves, and in the end, what we want is that the car is safe to park here, there will be no other things, and there is grass and water to drink, it's a good deal for two cents, isn't it?"
"That's what I said, but my mother still thinks it's ......"
Erlin's meaning Zheng understood, but she was still reluctant to pay for it, and just when she wanted to say something, Erlin interrupted.
"Okay mother, you see it's not too early, we still have to go shopping, so let's do it, let's go shopping in a while."
After saying that, Erlin went to the car dealer to pay and got a brand.
Zheng saw that the money had been given, even if he was reluctant, there was no way, he couldn't ask people to come back, what a shame.
It was just a small episode, and the family went shopping after the ox cart was put away.
Xin'er had already woken up when she parked the car, and the whole person who saw the people coming and going in the different places was excited, dancing in Wang's arms.
"Ah, we also know that we have arrived at the county seat!"
Wang couldn't help but say as he looked at his dancing heart.
Xin'er didn't understand what her mother was saying, but suddenly there were so many people and so many things in the old fan, it was very strange and exciting, and she didn't stop her hands and feet.
As soon as I started shopping, a few children were already held by their parents, and even if they saw something new and wanted to see it, they were pulled to death.
They were not disappointed, it was too prosperous for them that the county was too prosperous, and their eyes could no longer see it.
Qingyang County is much more prosperous than Qingshui Town, there is only one street in Qingshui Town, which is gone from beginning to end, and those who open shops and stalls are those.
But Qingyang County is different, there are three or four streets back and forth in Qingyang County, and there are many things to eat and play.
In the meantime, one sells some agricultural products, such as vegetables, chickens, ducks, fish, meat, eggs and so on.
There are also streets that sell food and play.
In addition, some are all open with their own shops, teahouses, wineries, silver buildings, cloth villages, wineries and grain houses.
There is also a flower street, a place that some people who look for flowers and willows love to go.
They are just shopping on one street now, and the others of Youcheng are already dazzled, and even the other people of the Ding family are a little dazzled.
