Chapter 322: What am I Doing in the Mortal World?
"No, your mother is the shopkeeper of the Lingxiao Inn, and she can do anything." ”
On this side, Ling Chaofeng came to visit Zisu, Zisu's mother couldn't afford to linger on the sickbed because of the illness after that meal, Ling Chaofeng heard from the familiar doctor, so he bought medicinal herbs to visit.
Shiso's mother is sleeping, she is alone in front of the house to light the fire, although the blind people have a lot of inconveniences, but the blind people since childhood, will gradually find a set of survival methods, so even if you can't see anything, Shisu can make a good fire and give the medicine to her mother.
"You're here?" Hearing the familiar sound of footsteps, Shisu raised her head, and she could feel a figure approaching, but she couldn't see anything.
"I'll send some medicinal herbs to visit my aunt." Ling Chaofeng said kindly, went straight to the door and put down the medicinal herbs, and when he came out again, he saw Shisu laboriously fetching water from the water tank, and when he got closer, the water tank was almost empty.
"I'll fetch water for you." Ling Chaofeng said, then went to the side to get a bucket and a burden, and said, "From tomorrow, I will let the people in the store take turns to help." ”
"I don't need to." Zi Su said coldly, "From now on, you don't have to worry about my affairs." ”
"You don't have to say anything angry." Ling Chaofeng said, "I will try my best to help you if I can help, but what I can't do, you and I had better stop reluctantly." ”
With that, he went out with his burden, and brought buckets of water from the well at the end of the alley, and soon filled the tank.
Ling Chaofeng put down his sleeves and said, "Be careful yourself, what's the ......?"
But before he finished speaking, there was a sound of things falling in the room, and Shisu was worried about his mother, so he turned around and ran to the door, accidentally tripped over the small stool placed on the side, and fell heavily on the ground.
"Shiso?" Ling Chaofeng stepped forward to help, and Zi Su said worriedly, "Go see my mother." ”
Ling Chaofeng saw that she was fine, so he came in the door to check, it was Zisu's mother who woke up thirsty and wanted to drink tea, but accidentally dropped the teapot because of weakness and weakness, and when she saw Ling Chaofeng, she was quite surprised and couldn't speak for a while.
After watching the tall man busy picking up the debris and wiping the floor, the old lady sighed, if her daughter could marry such a man, she would die at this moment, and she would be at ease. But now, everything is over, and I am afraid that even my daughter's subsistence work of playing the piano will not be completed.
Ling Chaofeng cleaned up the house, came out again, and said to Zisu: "It's okay, I threw away all the fragments, you can go in with confidence." ”
Zi Su lowered his head and didn't speak, and Ling Chaofeng was not reluctant, so he said, "I'm leaving, the people in the store will come tomorrow, and they will deliver food, don't worry." ”
"Don't have pity on me, ...... from now on" Zi Su immediately refused, but Ling Chaofeng didn't care, and didn't even finish listening to the words, she heard the familiar footsteps getting farther and farther away from her, and Ling Chaofeng actually left like this.
Shisu smiled coldly, slowly walked into the door, the position of everything in the room was engraved in her heart, she walked towards her mother like a normal person, but suddenly, stepped on something.
Shiso stopped, squatted down and reached out to touch it, is it a hairpin? Or a twig?
"Where have I seen this hairpin?" Shiso's mother said, "Is it the shopkeeper's fall?" ”
Holding the hairpin in her hand, Shiso smelled a faint fragrance of lotus flowers, she walked up to her mother and asked, "Did you wear it in the evening?" ”
Shisu's mother immediately remembered: "Yes, she wore it, that Xiaowan was dressed very decently, but she always wore this broken hairpin." ”
Shiso stroked the hairpin, and his fingertips could feel the decay of the branches, that little late ......
On this side, Xiao Wan was angry, so she still rushed to the mortal world and waited for Ling Chaofeng outside the alley. I wanted to ask him why he still bothered about Zisu, even if she was stingy, she wasn't a noble and great immortal anyway.
At this moment, she was boredly kicking the pebbles on the side of the road, suddenly her heart trembled, her head suddenly went blank, she looked around blankly, at the mortals who came and went, and did not know why she was here.
"What am I doing in the mortal world?"
Xiao Wan was talking to herself, and clearly saw Ling Chaofeng's figure coming out of the alley, but she turned around without looking, and disappeared into the crowd without taking a few steps.
And Ling Chaofeng suddenly felt that something was empty in his sleeve, his heart tightened, touched the hairpin that was really missing Xiaowan, and immediately turned around to look for Zisu's house, but in front of Zisu's house, he saw the hairpin that had been folded into two pieces, which was ruthlessly thrown on the ground.
"Little Evening ......"
Holding the hairpin that could no longer be restored, he felt like a piece was missing in his heart, and the pain made him unable to breathe.
The hairpin was broken, Xiaowan's memories and feelings for her previous life were instantly withdrawn, and she turned back into the little fairy who had no desires, returned to the west heaven safely, and quietly swept the dust in front of the Buddha.
Day after day, it wasn't until Ruyan came to the door that she knew that such a change had happened to her.
However, Xiao Wan was faint, completely changed into a person, and followed Ruyan to the Polaris Palace, and when he saw his son and daughter-in-law, he just touched Pei'er's head and said softly: "You have to practice hard." ”
Just a few days ago, when Xiaowan came to look for a hairpin, she was still holding her son's chubby little body and rubbing and rubbing, telling Pei'er to be so faceless in front of Ayu, but today ......
Pei'er was worried, and said to Aunt Ruyan: "It's just that my mother's way is too shallow, she can't control her seven emotions and six desires, and without the blessing of the hairpin, she will forget everything." ”
Like smoke and glanced at the nether realm, but Ling Chaofeng was holding the broken hairpin, and he never forgot his sweetheart.
In a blink of an eye, it is autumn in the mortal world, and on this day, there are still guys from the restaurant who come to Zisu's house to help, and they specially sent moon cakes today.
Zisu's mother has been well, warmly entertained the guy, gossip asked about the store, the guy said: "The shopkeeper went out yesterday, didn't say where to go, didn't say how long, told us to look at the store, I heard others say, someone saw the shopkeeper leave Beijing, it seems to be going out." ”
Zi Su stood in the door and listened, although the guy didn't say it clearly, but presumably the people in the store understood that Ling Chaofeng was looking for Xiao Wan.
At this moment, on the way to Lizhou Mansion, Ling Chaofeng rode his horse alone, although it was hard, his face was full of expectations.
He has also traveled all over the north and south of the river in his life, and naturally has been to Lizhou Mansion, but he has never walked from the Baisha River Wharf, so he doesn't know that there is an inn on that long, long road.
The broken hairpin was carefully hidden in his heart, and he was single-minded to find Xiaowan.
Above the nine heavens, Pei'er stood in the clouds with Ah Yu and looked around, Ah Yu pointed to the galloping Ling Chaofeng, and suddenly said, "Daddy." ”
Pei'er was overjoyed and asked her, "Do you recognize Daddy?" ”
Ah Yu shook her head and pouted in confusion: "I don't know either." ”
