Chapter 42: Celebrating Mother's Birth and Brother Lu's Copying of the Sutra of Life (1)

Wang Shanbao's family was afraid that Jia Lu would not be able to hear the sound, so he said: "I want to remind my brother, our family has big rules, and my son is not just kowtowing and saying two auspicious words to his wife's birthday, it will make people laugh!" ”

Jia Lu smiled and said: "I know, I want to prepare a birthday gift for my wife, thank you for the reminder." ”

Wang Shanbao's family was still not at ease, and said on demand: "You must be attentive!" It can't be too thin!

Anyway, you gave it to your wife now, and in the future, when your brother grows up, your wife will have to return it to you, right? ”

Jia Lu said: "I must be attentive." ”

"That'...... Have you figured out what kind of birthday gift you will prepare for your wife? ”

Jia Lu leaked an innocent smile: "Last time on the old lady's birthday, I copied the "Amitayus Sutra" for her, and the old lady liked it very much, so I will copy it for my wife this time." ”

"You...... You just give this to the eldest wife? Wang Shanbao asked.

"Yes, only by copying the scriptures carefully and praying for my wife's blessing and longevity is my sincerity. Otherwise, I will try to make a poem for my wife to celebrate her birthday? I'm afraid that if I don't do it well, people will laugh at ......."

"Okay, it's very good, Brother Lu, you just concentrate on copying it, I won't bother."

Wang Shanbao's family went back to tell Mrs. Xing everything Jia Lu said.

"You call him and I'll ask him!"

Mrs. Xing couldn't help but get angry when she heard this, Jia Lu was obviously pretending to be stupid with her!

At first, he said that his mother had left him a box of jade and wanted to hand it over to her for safekeeping, but it hadn't been handed over to him yet.

But how did Mrs. Xing hear that two days ago, Jin Rong and several people chased him all over the street because they wanted to grab a jade plate from Jia Lu, and they all chased him to the garden of Ning Guofu?

Why did a jade Ruyi come out again this time? This is obviously not telling her the truth! This kid is fooling himself! How can this be endured?

What else do you say that you can only use it as a few dozen taels of silver in the pawnshop? This is clearly a loser who doesn't wait for dawn!

Even if the jade Ruyi is in poor condition, is there less than a hundred taels of silver? Is this better to let outsiders earn it than let her touch it?

After a while, Jia Lu came and obediently greeted Mrs. Xing: "What do you have to tell Mrs. to find me?" ”

Mrs. Xing snorted coldly and said, "Listen to Wang Shanbao's family, you want to copy the scriptures for me on my birthday?" ”

Jia Lu said: "Exactly, I hope my wife likes it." ”

"Hmph, I like it so much! How many words are in Amitayus? It's been a month now, have you finished copying it? Don't get tired! ”

Jia Lu smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, the Sutra of Life is only more than 17,000 words, and it is enough to copy 600 words a day for a month." ”

Mrs. Xing held back her anger and asked, "Last time, you said that the jade that your mother left you said that you would send some to you when you were ten years old, did you send it to you?" ”

Jia Lu had a surprised expression: "Huh? I'm talking about ten-year-olds? Did my wife remember it wrong, or did I say it wrong? It's twelve! ”

Madame Xing felt that her intelligence had been insulted, and asked again, "Did you bring other jade artifacts besides that jade pendant and a pair of bracelets when you first came?" ”

Jia Lu came back to her senses and said with a look of grievance: "Does Mrs. think I lied to you?"

You also saw it when I first came, and I didn't even have a baggage, only these few things were carried closely, where was there a private collection?

I don't know anyone in Shenjing......

Be...... Is it because my wife doesn't like my birthday gift? Then I'll give you a copy of the "Jizo Bodhisattva Sutra"?

But that's only used by the super-undead, isn't it unlucky? We have a lot of rules in our house, and I don't know much about ......."

Mrs. Xing only felt that she was about to explode, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"The Sutra of Amitayus is very good, I like it so much!

It's a coincidence, two days ago I was still dreaming, in the dream the Bodhisattva said let me copy the scriptures and accumulate virtue, before I said you thought of it, it can be seen that our mother and son are single-minded!

It's just that the Bodhisattva also said that you have to copy it a few more times to appear sincere, where is it enough for you to copy it once?

Aren't you just about to practice calligraphy? Just copy it a hundred times! ”

"Madam, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish copying it a hundred times." Jia Lu said.

"Can't finish copying? If you don't try, why can't you finish copying? It can be seen that there is no sincerity! ”

"Then I'll try...... What else does the wife command? ”

"Go ahead, don't be lazy!" Mrs. Xing picked up the teapot on the table and drank half of it.

Jia Lu returned to her room, and Ping'er hurriedly greeted her and asked, "What's the matter with the eldest lady looking for you?" ”

Jia Lu smiled: "It's nothing, ask me if I really want to copy the scriptures for her on her birthday, I said yes, my wife was very happy, and said let me copy it a hundred times." ”

"One...... A hundred times? What scriptures? How many words? Qingwen asked.

"The Sutra of Amitayus, more than 17,000 words."

"Wouldn't that be a hundred times......" Qingwen couldn't count it for a while.

Ping'er frowned and said, "This is what Mrs. Dang said?" So how did you get back? ”

Jia Lu smiled bitterly: "Copy, what else?" ”

"More than 1.7 million words, only one month, how can this be copied?" Qingwen finally figured it out.

She feels hard to write ten words, more than one million words, can't she write for a lifetime?

Jia Lu said: "Hey, copy it, it's time to practice calligraphy, Qingwen, give me inkstone." ”

Ping'er took a wad of paper and said, "If you really want to copy it a hundred times, how many inks and paper do you have to use?" I'll go and give the third master some time back. ”

Sister Feng heard that Ping'er wanted a hundred pens and two hundred pieces of ink in a fit of anger and said with a smile: "What, you don't have any money in the third master's house, are you going to empty the treasury in the house and open a shop outside?" ”

Ping'er wanted this effect, so she told Mrs. Xing that she wanted Jia Lu to copy the scriptures a hundred times.

"Second grandma, tell me, Brother Lu is only a child, and he hasn't done anything wrong, why bother to torture him like this?"

Sister Feng looked at Ping'er with a smile and smacked her lips and said, "Tut-tut, what's the matter, is this distressing for your third master?" Ping'er has really grown up and knows how to be considerate of the gentlemen. ”

Although she knew that Ping'er was a kind-hearted person, and she herself was willing to exchange Ping'er for the soap formula, when she saw Ping'er running to her in a hurry for Jia Lu, she turned around and asked Jia Lu for help, and she couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart.

Ping'er's face turned crimson: "The second grandmother made fun of me again." He's still a kid, copying a hundred times a month......"

Sister Feng asked rhetorically: "What if you can't finish copying?" Could it be that the eldest lady can still pull his tendons and peel his skin? ”

"This ......," Ping'er was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, now that Jia Lu has a little bit of a presence in the Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Xing should not dare to move the idea of killing him anymore.

Sister Feng snorted coldly and said, "You are a loyal person, if you give you to him, you will think about him with all your heart, don't you think for me?"

Anyway, the eldest lady is also my mother-in-law, what do you want me to do? Go and tell the old lady about him, don't you? ”

Ping'er hurriedly said: "What is the second grandmother, I am just the second grandmother and poor Brother Lu'er, helping to take care of it, I am still the second grandmother's person." ”

Sister Feng sneered and said noncommittally: "You go back, I can't control this matter." If you don't have pen and ink, you can just take it to the library. I want to see, what else can the eldest lady do to Jia Lu? ”
