Chapter Twenty-Six: The Poor Monk Is Polite!
For many people who come to Jiangnan for tourism, if they come to Jiangnan but have never been to West Lake, they are not considered to have been to Jiangnan. It can be seen that for many people, West Lake is synonymous with Jiangnan, and it is also the most well-known scenic business card in Jiangnan.
Although West Lake has been to Xu Haibao many times. But Xu Haibao believes that although the West Lake is familiar to his sister, he has not appreciated the true beauty of the West Lake. If you want to appreciate the true beauty of West Lake, many times it costs money.
But for Xu Qingya, she is often reluctant to spend money. After all, in Xu Qingya's view, spending money on a boat to follow up tourist attractions seems somewhat wasteful. Walking around the West Lake, it is also considered to have been to the West Lake.
When Xu Qingya arrived at West Lake with her best girlfriend, looking at Xu Qingya who came by bus, Xu Haibao, who had been waiting for a long time, was also speechless: "Didn't you say that you should take a taxi over?"
"It's too expensive to take a taxi, and it's cheap to take a bus, and it's not a few stops from our school. ”
The sentence 'too expensive' made Xu Haibao also helpless and said: "It seems that it is very necessary in the future, so that you can learn how to spend money!"
If you're a millionaire, I wouldn't mind spending a little more for you. But you don't even have a job now, and if you don't save a little flower, how will you talk about a girlfriend in the future?"
Facing Xu Qingya, who was preaching, Xu Haibao decisively changed the topic and said: "Okay, let's go quickly! I have already talked to the boat boss, and we will also take a boat trip back to the West Lake today." You girl, you haven't been on a cruise before, have you?"
"What's there to sit on a cruise ship? From childhood to adulthood, the boat hasn't sat enough! What are you doing with that unjust money?"
Looking at Xu Qingya's tone of 'you are spending money again', Xu Haibao could only say: "You have been to West Lake a lot of times, right? Have you ever been to Lake Island? Don't you want to go to Lake Island to see?"
Regarding the bickering appearance of the two brothers and sisters, Lin Mengchu, who was a roommate, couldn't help but say: "Sister Ya, this is Brother Xu's heart." Speaking of which, I haven't been to the island in the middle of the lake!
"Dead girl, don't you know, my brother has just been discharged from the army not long ago, how can he do that little discharge fee without saving some flowers? My mother talks about introducing him to a girlfriend every day, and what girlfriend do you talk about without a house or car?
Don't you know, if we want to get married, a car and a house are necessary. The little money he has, if he saves some money, can buy a house and pay a down payment. I'm thinking about his life's work!"
As a result, such a remark directly made Xu Haibao jump in his head, and scolded with a smile: "You girl, can't you expect me to be better? How old am I, do I need to find a girlfriend in such a hurry? Care about yourself!"
"Cut! I want to be in love with all my heart, and that's a matter of minutes!"
"Yes, I know you're charming, okay? Let's go! If you don't leave, you can pay for the extra money!"
When the three of them came to the dock by the lake and looked at the cruise ship rented by Xu Haibao, Xu Qingya couldn't help but complain: "Brother, how do you rent this kind of boat?
"Good scenery needs to be savored. This boat is really going to row, and the speed is not slow. Don't be verbose, hurry up and get on the boat and put on your life jacket. Let's go to the island in the middle of the lake first!"
Originally, Xu Haibao also wanted to rent a larger painting boat, but the price was much more expensive than the fishing boat he rented now. If you take a boat to swim around the lake, it is somewhat inconvenient. After all, there must be other visitors to the boat.
The fishing boat that is now rented could have been able to seat six people. Now if there are three people, you don't have to worry about talking and chatting. The most important thing is that the boat boss can also be a free tour guide, which is also called a lot of killings.
Sitting on a fishing boat moving slowly, Xu Qingya, who had previously felt that Xu Haibao was spending money indiscriminately, said happily at this time: "Chu Chu, sitting on the boat and watching the West Lake is really different from being on the shore!"
"Now you know you have some money to spend, right?"
"For your sake, I won't bother with you!"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Mengchu, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but say angrily: "Sister Ya, what are you talking about?
"Yes, so you must accompany my brother today. He's so honest, it's hard to find a girlfriend! When I wrote to him last year when he was still in the army, I sent him a photo of us together.
Do you know that I asked him in the letter at the time, you think the girl in the photo is the cutest. And guess what happened to my brother? He said you were the cutest! So, I brought you here today!"
Listening to Xu Qingya start to match again, Xu Haibao quickly said: "Classmate Lin, don't listen to this girl's nonsense! When she first entered the university, when she wrote to me, she also said that she had the best relationship with you, and you usually stay together."
Speaking of which, we are also fellow countrymen, and it is fate that the two of you have the opportunity to study in the same school, and even live in a dormitory. This girl likes to joke around sometimes, don't be like her. ”
"No, in fact, Sister Ya usually takes care of me a lot!"
Just when the two were talking, Xu Qingya still wanted to make a joke between the two and tried to introduce Lin Mengchu to her brother. As a result, seeing Xu Haibao's slightly serious eyes, Xu Qingya could only dispel the idea of continuing to joke.
In Xu Qingya's opinion, her brother is very good except for the low point of his diploma and less deposit. And Lin Mengchu is her best friend, and she also likes Lin Mengchu's delicate personality. Most importantly, she felt that the two families were not far away.
If we can really talk, there is also the possibility of coming together in the end. But now that she sees Xu Haibao so serious, she doesn't have much to say. She knows very well that once Xu Haibao gets serious, it is better for her to be honest and obedient.
After all, Xu Haibao usually spoils her and indulges her. can involve some principled issues, Xu Haibao will also put on the momentum of an old brother. At this time, Xu Qingya must be honest and obedient, otherwise the consequences will be serious.
Seeing that Xu Qingya was also very honest and obedient under Xu Haibao's eyes, Lin Mengchu, who was sitting next to Xu Qingya, also felt that the relationship between the two brothers and sisters really made her envious. And she actually feels pretty good about Xu Haibao.
For any girl, a man who really cares about his sister is somewhat enviable. In addition, Lin Mengchu heard Xu Qingya say that Xu Haibao chose to join the army back then, more to give his sister the opportunity to go to college.
It's just that for Lin Mengchu, she knows Xu Qingya's intentions. But feelings are such a thing, and for her, they also need feelings. At least for now, Xu Haibao has not yet shown what really makes her heart move.
When the fishing boat arrived at the island in the middle of the lake, looking at the pavilions built on the island in the middle of the lake, the two girls were very happy. Seeing Xu Qingya with a smile on her face, Xu Haibao, as an elder brother, also felt that it was really worth arranging a tour of the lake today.
went around the West Lake, and when Xu Qingya felt a little hungry, Xu Haibao also ended the tour in time. With two girls, I had a simple lunch at the restaurant next to the West Lake.
Xu Haibao, who had eaten lunch, also said in a timely manner: "Do you still want to go shopping in the afternoon?"
"Walk! You must go all over the West Lake today! Chu Chu, haven't you always wanted to go to Yunyin Temple? Why don't we go to Yunyin Temple in the afternoon? Don't you keep saying that the lot there is very smart?"
With Xu Qingya's proposal, Lin Mengchu, who was really happy, did not refuse. As for Xu Haibao, who acts as an escort, he doesn't have much say at all, he just needs to be a good bodyguard and wallet.
When the three of them arrived at Yunyin Temple, Xu Haibao, who was standing in front of the temple, also felt that this ancient temple in the deep mountains really made people who walked in here feel at ease. There seems to be a lot of tourists coming here.
Although Xu Haibao has no faith, he can think of his mother's belief in Buddhism, and the reason for his rebirth that he still has no solution. Xu Haibao finally spent money to buy some sandalwood, and when he planned to enter the temple to worship the Buddha, he also gave the Bodhisattva incense.
Regarding Xu Haibao's arrangement, Xu Qingya didn't say much. The three of them followed behind many tourists, and they were also very regular and pious, and under the guidance of the monks, they burned incense and gave incense to the Bodhisattvas in the temple.
After the incense, Xu Qingya began to whisper to Lin Mengchu. It's just the whispering of the two, and for Xu Haibao at this moment, there are almost no secrets. It's just that Xu Haibao did not expose the little secret of the two.
It's just that in Xu Haibao's opinion, the little girl asked for a sign to ask about marriage, which made people cry and laugh a little. But he also understands that every girl likes to meet the prince charming in her heart early, and she longs for a romantic and sweet love.
But this kind of thing, does asking for a signature really work?
Although he was a little disapproving, at this time, a monk in the temple suddenly walked up to Xu Haibao and said, "Donor, the poor monk is polite!"
"Master, it's polite! I don't know what the master is doing?"
"My master wants to invite the donor to the backyard meditation room, but I wonder if the donor would like to go with the poor monk?"
The sudden invitation made Xu Haibao indeed seem a little surprised. But Xu Haibao knows how much that the monks who are qualified to be called 'mages' in Yunyin Temple must be highly respected monks in the temple.
But the question is, what does such a high monk suddenly look for himself?
Don't say that Xu Haibao was confused, even the two girls standing next to him also looked surprised. But they also knew that the mage of Yunyin Temple could not be seen by ordinary people. So why do they have such an honor?
