68 Holy Monk 27

When the people of Sangya's tribe learned that Master Xuanji would live with their tribe in winter, they were so happy that they came to help him move.

Jiang Siyin's friends also came over to help him dismantle the bed.

Jiang Siyin commanded beside him and advised: "You guys be careful, this bed still needs to be used." ”

This bed was built by his father with a mortise and tenon structure, and after his father became a monk, he simply became omnipotent, and even the carpentry was particularly good.

"Well, Batuu, can I sleep with you then?"

One of the friends, Akshan, asked Ai Aidi, this is a bed, and nobles may not have slept in a bed.

Batu glanced at the gray woolen jacket on his little friend's body, and looked reluctant, "You can take a bath." ”

Now it's okay, other friends came over, "Batu, can I do it after taking a shower?" ”

Jiang Siyin had no choice but to say, "It's all right." ”

You can't say yes to one and refuse the other, can you? Fortunately, the bed his father made for him was big enough to accommodate two or three children.

After watching the bed, the friends have something to yearn for.

"Batu, your sister's green hat is so beautiful, can I dye one too?" How green it is! Unlike other people's hats, which are either white or gray or black, they are really monotonous!

Especially on a winter day when everything is dry, this gray or black look makes people feel depressing.

Some friends clapped their hands and said, "Wow, what a great color!" When it was spring, Batu hid in the grass, but no one could find him. ”

Jiang Siyin couldn't help but be happy, "Haha, this was originally dyed green in order to hide from me, but unfortunately my father doesn't have much dye there." He touched his hat lovingly, "Wait for spring, the plants that can be made into dyes will grow in the spring, and then we will find and dye together, and the clothes can also be dyed!" ”

The friends immediately became happy, and they couldn't wait for spring to come.

"Batuu, are you done packing your things?"

Sanya came over and asked, her hands and feet were nimble, and seeing that everything in her house was almost cleaned, she came over to help Batu clean up.

Sang Ya Dad also came, he knew that the master was not worried about the pregnant Sang Ya Niang would follow their small tribe, so many people in the Jiri tribe had very opinions about his family.

In the steppe, the most people are sick in winter, and the master can heal both people and livestock, which tribe does not rush to ask for it?

While everyone was busy moving for the master, some people also noticed the busy girl.

"After the New Year, your Sangya will be almost fifteen." A middle-aged Hu man couldn't help but speak, "Daddy Sangya, look at my three sons, which one do you like?" ”

Sang Ya's father's face sank: "I didn't fancy any of them!" My daughter is still young. ”

The middle-aged Hu people disagreed, "The Central Plains people said that men should marry and women should marry, it still makes sense, and girls of the same age as Sang Ya have gone to see each other." ”

Sangya's father said: "I told her mother that Sangya will be late for two years." ”

In the grassland, it is not easy to raise a girl, if there is no large bride price, the man wants to marry home, and he has to work in the girl's maiden house for a few years before the woman will go with you.

So not counting the time to work in my mother's house, I didn't come out until I was twenty years old

The girl in the pavilion was not strange at all.

Of course, this is still very strange in the eyes of the Central Plains people, because the son-in-law is working in the father-in-law's mother-in-law's house, maybe the grandson is born, and when he gets married, he drags the family to marry to the husband's family, which is a strange custom in the eyes of the Central Plains people.

After hearing Sang Ya Dad's words, the surrounding Hu people all said that they could understand.

Now that Sang Ya Niang is pregnant, if Sang Ya remarries, how can the family be busy?

However, it's better if you can't be busy, and it's even better if you need a helper.

Many Hu people thought in their hearts that they would send their sons to Sanya's house to help, and the help was too much, and the feelings were deep, and they would help for two or three years to fully test the man's character, and then Sanya's father and mother would be willing to marry their daughter.

"What is this? Toy? Sanya picked up a wooden bird and said in surprise, "Is this all?" ”

It is all the name of the master's parrot, a particularly intelligent parrot that can talk nonsense, and everyone in the steppe knows about the existence of this bird and calls it a sacred bird.

Not only the wooden bird, but there were many things they hadn't seen.

When they learned that these were toys made by the master for Batu, a group of friends were really envious.

"Wow, Batuu, you've got a lot of toys."

When did the children of the grassland see so many toys, piled up like a hill, which makes people dazzled.

Jiang Siyin was a little proud, "This is called the Rubik's Cube, my father made it for me!" ”

"This is a Luban lock, my father made it for me!"

"This is called the Big Landlord Game, my dad made it!"

"This is ......"

The most straightforward way for children to show off is how many toys parents give them, and the little friends suddenly cry and chirp, they also want such a peerless good father.

Jiang Siyin looked proud, "I originally wanted to play with you with toys, but my father said that he was going to move, and everyone was not available." When we get to our new home, we'll play together. ”

"Batu, we want to play now." The little friend begged, "You see that we have almost packed up our things, let's play for a while." ”

Jiang Siyin saw that they all wanted to play, so he had to teach them to play with toys together.

After a while, even Sanya indulged in the Rubik's Cube.

"Batu, this is so hard." Sonya twisted the Rubik's Cube around, there was no way to restore it, she didn't admit that she was stupid, it must be that this Rubik's Cube was too complicated.

Jiang Siyin motioned to the friends to play Luban lock by themselves, and came over to teach her, "This is a very simple ......"

After all the things were packed up, Jiang He invited the people who came to help to eat.

Everyone thought that there was nothing delicious about the vegetarian banquet, and the things that the monks ate were all clear soup and little water, but they didn't raise their heads one by one.

Damn, if this is a vegetarian feast, they can also eat vegetarian every day!

At the snack time after the meal, Jiang He served milk tea and glutinous rice dumplings to the group of children, as well as fragrant vegetables and tofu balls.

"If I want to be a monk, can I eat these every day?" Ten-year-old Akshan couldn't help but ask Jiang Siyin, "Batu, does your father want an apprentice?" I think I can be a monk. ”

"Don't even think about it!" Jiang Siyin was instantly alert, and no one wanted to rob him of his father, "Didn't you say before that you would rob ten or eight Central Plains women to be mothers-in-law?" When a monk cannot marry a wife. ”

Akshan couldn't help but snap

Mouth, there is still a sweet taste of milk tea in the mouth.

He said honestly: "I don't think my mother-in-law is as good as milk tea." ()”

“? [()]?γ€Ž Come on[]. See the latest chapters. Complete Chapter'()"

Sanya's father rode up and caught up, "Why didn't you suddenly speak?" ”

Sanya whispered, "Daddy, Batu has changed a lot. ”

Father Sangya nodded in agreement: "Indeed, I have gained a lot of weight, my face is round, and I am a lot whiter!" He used to be very white, but he didn't expect it to be even whiter now, just like the glutinous rice dumplings made by the master. ”

Sanya couldn't help but purse her lips.

"Alas, seeing the current Batu, your father and I are a little sorry, as if we didn't care to take care of him." Father Sanya couldn't help laughing at himself, because he thought he had raised Batu well enough, after all, when they first met, Batu was just a skinny little slave.

Now when I see Batu, who has returned to his father's side, I know that it is best for children to stay with their relatives.

"Daddy, I'm thinking about ......"

Sonya was sad to say what she thought, when she picked out the youngest Batu from the slave group, she felt that she had saved Batu, such a thin and small child that no one wanted to buy, even if he bought it, he would not be able to work for a few days, and maybe he would die soon.

Sanya didn't mean to repay the favor, she just took it for granted that Batu became her younger brother, so he should cook, raise cattle and horses, carry water, and provide for her parents......

This kind of thinking is not to blame, she is counting on Batu to repay her kindness, so the more sensible and capable Batu is, the happier she is.

"Batu is just a child by the master's side." Sanya's voice was low, "He was only seven years old when we bought him. ”

Even if the children on the grassland are generally more precocious than the Central Plains people, they only go to the battlefield after the age of fourteen or fifteen.

Sonya's father couldn't help but touch his daughter's head, his daughter was so kind, she was actually sad about this kind of thing.

The grassland people believe in the survival of the strong, and it is already merciful not to kill the slaves in the Central Plains.

Sangya's father sighed, sure enough, he still has to have his own son, otherwise Sanya is so kind, what if he is bullied in the future?

When the two returned home, it was dinner time.

Sang Yaniang waited for them with a smile: "You guys are back just in time, it's time to have dinner, and you will pack up your things after eating!" It's also a little smaller

() The things are not finished,

How are there so many things this year,

It feels like I can't finish cleaning up, and I move every year to clean up every year, which is really a toss. ”

Whenever this happens, Sang Yaniang envies the people of the Central Plains, it's good that you don't have to move every year!

Herders move a few times a year, sometimes even two or three or four times a year, and in this case, not to mention the elderly and children, even the able-bodied young people can't stand it.

Sang Ya helped her mother sit at the dining table, "Mother, don't toss, I'll clean up with my father." ”

There are two children in this belly, and the master said to pay special attention.

Father Sangya couldn't help but speed up his meal, this year's move will be more difficult than usual to clean up, because their family saved the master's son, and the master sent a lot of gifts. Lao Shan Yu also praised him, and ordered people to send a lot of things over, and those nobles couldn't be stingy after seeing it

, followed by the delivery of things.

Their family has never been so wealthy, no wonder Sang Ya Niang is so tired to clean up.

Sang Yaniang distributed the meat in the pot to her husband and daughter, and muttered, "When will the merchants from the Central Plains come?" Let's see if there is a medicine pot, it always feels troublesome to cook medicine in a crockpot...... Fortunately, the place of migration is not far away, and I heard that the Jiri tribe is camping next to our tribe in order to get closer to the master......

"Master Xuanji planted wheat that can grow on the grassland, and our family also harvested seventy catties, many people asked me to buy it as seeds, I heard that the wheat is very delicious when ground into noodles, and the stalks can be used as feed, I wanted to grind some to eat, and I want to use it as seeds to grow more next year, seventy catties of seeds are sold for forty catties, and the rest of them say that they will not be sold."

Under the light, Sang Yaniang looked at her husband and daughter, especially eager to speak, and kept chattering, "I just think, next year Chinese New Year's Eve will plant all the seeds, and our family will have to buy two tents for food." Speaking of this, she smiled and narrowed her eyes, "There is so much food, people can't eat it for livestock, if so, maybe we don't have to move all year round." ”

The livestock have something to eat, who still moves.

Sanya was not sad all of a sudden, and she also fantasized about not having to move.

The grassland peoples migrate countless times a year, and moving is a tiring thing, so it would be nice if you didn't move, or move a few times.

**

In the Wolf Howling Basin, several small tribes settled.

The wind whistled from above, and the cold winter wind could not be felt under the basin, much warmer than the grasslands that could not be seen at a glance.

Jiang Siyin's little face was wilted, he didn't expect it to be such a toss to move.

Obviously, I also moved in previous years, why didn't I think it would be so difficult? Was it because there were too many things in his father's tent?

Jiang He pinched the child's little arm with some dissatisfaction, "It's too empty, I will start practicing martial arts with my father tomorrow." ”

Boys can't resist martial arts, especially in the grassland where brave martial arts are admired, Jiang Siyin immediately had the spirit, "Dad, after I practice martial arts, can I become the first brave man in the grassland?" ”

Jiang He kept a holy smile, "It depends on whether you work hard enough." ”

The parrot followed and said, "You still have to study hard, both civil and military are real men!" ”

Jiang He immediately decided, "From tomorrow onwards, I will teach you to read." ”

Jiang Siyin looked at the parrot with a suspicious expression, "I learn from it?" ”

The parrot raised its head and said, "I am."

Only knowledgeable parrots! Learn to be rich in five cars! Seeing that Jiang Siyin still didn't believe it,

The parrot was suddenly angry,

"Take the Rubik's Cube and fight!"

Then, Jiang Siyin was stunned to watch the parrot's two wings flapping left and right, and the Rubik's Cube turned and twisted, and after a while, it was all restored.

So, he's worse than a parrot?

It took him a night to restore the Rubik's Cube.

Jiang He ignored the big battle of one man and one parrot and went out to see a doctor.

When he finally settled down, he had to go and see the frail and sick women and the elderly in the tribe, especially those who were pregnant.

In the tent, Sang Yaniang lay with a pale face.

Although Sanya's father put all the animal skins in the carriage, the too bumpy road still made her feel angry, but fortunately with the master, she finally arrived at her destination without danger.

Sannya was also frightened, for the first time, he also had thoughts of not wanting to migrate.

He couldn't think that if there was no master, would his wife have three deaths?

Every year there are pregnant women with poor physical fitness who lose their children, and the grassland is so big that the distance is so far that many frail elderly and children can't hold on.

When Sang Ya saw Jiang He coming, her face was full of surprise, "Master, come and see my mother." ”

Jiang He was soon able to stabilize Sangya Niang's situation, and went to prescribe medicine again, and asked Sangya to boil the medicine.

After drinking the medicine, Sang Yaniang's face was finally not so ugly.

Jiang He handed the other fetal pills to Sangya, and after carefully admonishing them, he went to another house.

A group of Hu people with sick people in their families were waiting outside the tent, extremely glad that the master had settled in their tribe.

Jiang He worked for several days, and finally finished seeing the sick people from several surrounding tribes, including sick livestock.

Even if he was in good health, he was too tired to do it, and he rested fiercely for two days.

Before dawn, before Jiang Siyin opened his eyes, his nose habitually smelled the aroma in the air.

Unlike milk...... Well, it should be the scent of beans, and there is a faint sound of the stone mill turning.

"Hurry up and exercise in the morning!"

The parrot came over with a single wing, completely dispersing Jiang Siyin's last trace of sleep.

It wasn't dawn yet, and the ground covered with a thin layer of snow looked cold, and as soon as he went out, Jiang Siyin sneezed several times.

Jiang He also followed out of the tent, and his face was still haired, and it was just right to wait for the morning exercise to be over.

Next, Jiang He was practicing the stick method, Jiang Siyin stood on the horse, his eyes followed his father's stick, in the story his father said, the beggar gang had a dog stick method, I don't know which one is better than my father.

Jiang Siyin suddenly looked up to the profession of a monk.

His father had only been a monk for a long time, and he could not only cook, but also chat with animals, and even learned kung fu!

It's just that his father's body looks really thin, and he doesn't know if this martial arts practice is useless or not, and whether he can protect himself.

After Jiang Hechen finished practicing, he said to Zamabu's son: "Rest after standing on the plum blossom pile for a quarter of an hour, and my father will cook soy milk for you." ”

"Add more sugar." Jiang Siyin shouted, his father was afraid that his teeth would be bad, so he only gave him a little sugar, and it didn't taste good to drink.

Nearly half an hour of exercise, breakfast time arrived.

Monk Dad is a standard Daqing person, accustomed to eating soy milk fritters for breakfast,

Steamed buns with millet porridge. ()

The author of this book, Wu Yayi, reminds you that "Starting from the Eunuch (Fast Wear)" is the first time in.? Update the latest chapter, remember [()]?' Come on[]. See the latest chapters. Complete Chapters'()

After breakfast, my father recited the scriptures, and my son read.

I don't know where his father got the Four Books and Five Classics, Jiang Siyin found that he had a lot of articles to memorize.

If he reads it wrong, the parrot will fan his wings and shout: "Wrong, wrong, it's really not as good as a bird!" ”

Jiang Siyin was particularly unconvinced, and then the dead bird would jump up and down in front of him, recite the correct article, and say proudly: "Oh, it's so hard to memorize Bentong, quickly bring a glass of water for Bentong, don't forget to peel melon seeds for me......"

Occasionally, when it was particularly excessive, the monk father would cough, and the parrot would immediately be as quiet as a chicken.

Jiang Siyin will feel very relieved at this time, his father is really suitable to be a monk, how long has he been in office, and he has learned to enlighten "Su Hui" to animals.

It must be Su Hui, otherwise how could a bird be so smart.

The sun finally rises and the temple finally opens.

When the monk's father picked up the guestsβ€”oh, the pilgrimsβ€”he began to write articles.

Near noon, his father would ask him to buy meat from Hu Ren and teach him how to make delicious meat.

"Daddy, I want to eat what you made." Jiang Siyin worked hard to sell cuteness, his father's cooking skills are so good, the meat must be more delicious.

The monk's father ruthlessly refused, "Your father and I are a monk, and I can't bear to kill." ”

Jiang Siyin complained in his heart that he couldn't, so could he bear to watch him kill?

The monk's father looked at him with a very kind look, "In the eyes of the monks, all beings are equal, but in the eyes of my father, my son ranks before all beings. ”

So he doesn't kill, but can he change his principles for the sake of his son?

The child's face was slightly red, and he didn't resist the slightest bit to make food, including the vegetarian food that his father wanted to eat.

Forget it, let's be filial to his father in advance.

The monk who did not feel guilty at all told the eleven-year-old to cook, and the child laborer should not be too skilled.

"Dad, I still want to learn how to make dim sum." Jiang Siyin's eyes are very hot, the dim sum made by his father is really amazing, this lotus crisp looks like a real lotus flower, and it is fragrant.

Jiang He nodded, "Okay, Dad taught you to do it, and opened your mouth." ”

The delicate flower-like snack was stuffed into his mouth, and the sweet taste spread in his tongue, and Jiang Siyin squinted his eyes happily.

In the days when he was living on the grassland, Jiang Siyin hadn't eaten dim sum for a long time, because sugar was too expensive in the grassland.

Nearly four years of grassland life have left a mark on him, and he has a deeper memory of the grassland than the life of the children of the family with vague memories.

What Jiang He wants to do is not to completely erase this imprint and deny this part of his life, but to make the experience of the grassland the best memory of his childhood.

The parrot and Jiang Siyin stayed in the kitchen, the parrot waited on the side, and Jiang Siyin hurriedly made snacks.

The monk sitting at the door of the kitchen pinched the Buddha beads and chanted the Buddha with his eyebrows lowered.

If one day Daqing and the Hu people go to war, Jiang Siyin's experience will only be mentioned repeatedly, turned into a knife, and sharpened him to a bruise.

So, what he's going to do is turn the gravel into heaven.

When the grassland is full of flowers and grain, and the culture is not much different from that of the Central Plains, and even becomes a family, there will be no distinction between Hu and Han, and Jiang Siyin's experience will no longer hinder his life.

After finally making the snack, Jiang Siyin wiped his sweat.

"Dad, I will send snacks to my adoptive parents' house, and teach Sister Sangya to read by the way."

Jiang Siyin directly lifted several layers of steamers, the steamers were very small, and the dim sum inside was still hot at Sangya's house.!
