A poor peasant girl: Farming with a baby and abusing her husband

Chapter 31 Meeting an old friend in Thanksgiving Temple

From ancient times to the present, it seems that all temples will plant a few big trees, either yellow fruit trees or ginkgo trees!

There is a monk guarding the gate next to the gate of Thanksgiving Temple.

When he saw Yan Shu and his group approaching, he handed over some pairs of linen ankle boots.

Ying'er quickly took out a few copper coins and handed them to the gatekeeper monk.

"This is specially prepared for pilgrims to prevent the mortal world outside from disturbing the tranquility of the Buddhist home."

Feng Zhen'er explained to Yan Shu who looked confused.

Yan Shu nodded and put it on seriously.

Entering the gate, you will see a lush and green scene, completely unlike the depressed scene outside.

"It turns out that yellow horn trees and small-leaf fig trees have been planted in ancient times." Yan Shu always felt that the Chinese culture was vast and rich in resources.

Directly to the north of the courtyard is a Tongtian Palace, in which several majestic Bodhisattvas are enshrined, and the whole is dignified and solemn.

In the middle of the courtyard is a row of copper incense burners, with thick incense ash inside exuding a scent of incense.

The most eye-catching thing is the tall trees on both sides of the yard.

Three or two huge yellow horn trees stand upright in the northwest corner, with their branches intertwined and luxuriant.

People sitting under the trees and offering incense seemed to be discussing their long age.

"Sister, if you're fine, just wander around. You don't have to stay with me all the time!"

Feng Zhen'er was afraid that Yan Shu wouldn't like the smell of fireworks in the temple.

"It's okay. Since we're all here together, we have to offer incense sticks anyway!"

Everyone went to the treasure hall together, first donated some silver to the merit box, then received incense and put it in the incense burner in front of the Bodhisattva to make wishes.

Yan Shu looked at Feng Zhen'er with a pious look on her face, her eyes closed and her mouth muttering silently.

She also learned to let Yaya kneel on the mat and close her eyes.

At this moment, the smoke is thick and the years are quiet. Perhaps it is because we are in this high wall far away from the world of mortals that we can have no distractions.

After worshiping the Bodhisattva, several people came out of the palace. People began to come and go in the courtyard.

Just as Yan Shu and the others were walking towards the courtyard behind, a familiar voice came from behind.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Yan Shu and Feng Zhen'er both heard the sound and turned around.

It turned out to be Liu Zhuo.

"Why are you here?" Yan Shu couldn't help but feel surprised.

At the same time, Feng Zhen'er was also surprised.

But she also lowered her head subconsciously.

"Master Liu is here too, what a coincidence."

Liu Zhuo still nodded gracefully with a smile.

There was no expression on his face that made him think too much.

Feng Zhen'er just wanted to escape from this embarrassing scene quickly.

"Sister Yan Shu, I'll go to the main hall at the back to have a look first, and you guys can talk first."

After saying that, he took Ying'er and ran away quickly.

Yan Shu just said, "Hey, wait for me!" but was interrupted by Liu Zhuo.

"When did my sister come to Kyoto? What a fate it is that we can meet at this Thanksgiving Temple today!"

Liu Zhuo then touched Yaya's head: "Yaya, have you missed your uncle? I still remember the way you were eating cake at home last time."

"Of course I remember it. The way uncle was eating the cake was so funny! Hahaha," Yaya answered innocently.

Yan Shu: "Yaya, don't be rude. You can't talk to uncle like that."

Yaya suddenly felt aggrieved.

Liu Zhuo quickly smoothed things over and said, "It's all uncle's fault for making Yaya and Sister Yanshu unhappy."

Yan Shu felt a little excited when she saw Liu Zhuo just now. This feeling was strange even to her.

"I really didn't expect to see you again here. I came here with Zhen'er to worship and pray for blessings."

Yan Shu explained, but did not ask why Liu Zhuo was here.

"Zhen'er may have been a little embarrassed to face you directly just now, so she was anxious to leave first. Don't mind."

Yan Shu explained for Feng Zhener again.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhuo waved his hand generously:

"It doesn't matter, it's just that my presence here makes everyone uncomfortable."

Yan Shu shook her head and said that Liu Zhuo had not affected her.

"Sister, this is your first time in Kyoto. Have you ever visited the most bustling North Alley? It is a famous lively place in the country."

Yan Shu: "We have only been here two days. We haven't had time to go yet. Originally, I came here with Zhen'er to see if there is any business suitable for me."

Liu Zhuo raised his handsome black eyebrows and stared directly at Yan Shu with his deep eyes:

"Oh? Sister wants to do business?"

Yan Shu: "I just have this plan. I'm not very familiar with Kyoto. Let's take a look first and then talk!"

Liu Zhuo's face seemed to be filled with excitement:

"If you don't mind, sister, if you have time in the next two days, you can let me take you to see the surrounding areas. I've been in Kyoto for a long time, and I have a lot of friends. Maybe I can be of some help."

"Then I'd like to trouble Mr. Liu. If you have time, please help me with my advice." Yan Shu replied politely.

Yan Shu thought that Liu Zhuo should also come to pay homage, so she asked Liu Zhuo to go about his business first and told her the inn where he would stay and contact her when he had time.

Due to the awkward relationship between Liu Zhuo and Feng Zhen'er, Yan Shu had to say goodbye to Liu Zhuo and go to the temple backyard to find Zhen'er. After all, Zhen'er's current situation was the most worrying.

Liu Zhuo looked at Yan Shu and Yaya with a disappointed expression.

As soon as Yan Shu arrived at the door of the second palace in the backyard, she saw Ying'er helping Feng Zhen'er out.

"Sister, why are you here? I just finished worshiping."

Feng Zhen'er didn't expect Yan Shu to follow him so quickly.

Yan Shu: "Of course I'm coming. I've been talking to Mr. Liu for a while. He said he would take me to see the North Alley in Kyoto when he has time. It's the most suitable place for doing business."

"Sister, if you come to Kyoto to do business, you will definitely make a lot of money. You have many ideas and can endure hardships." Feng Zhen'er sincerely praised Yan Shu.

"Sister, you are praising me to the heavens. I am not that powerful. But why did you avoid Mr. Liu just now? You two can be friends openly."

As the intermediary, Yan Shu fully knows the situation on both sides, and no one feels guilty about the other.

"It's better to forget about the way I look now. It's okay. Mr. Liu is a good person. If you have him help you organize things, it won't be a problem for you to gain a foothold in Kyoto."

Feng Zhen'er stroked her abdomen with her hand, looking disappointed.

Since ancient times, beauties have had many misfortunes, and Feng Zhener is struggling in the misfortune right now.

Feng Zhen'er cheered up: "Okay, I'm fine now. Come in and offer incense and make a wish. It's very effective here."

Yan Shu nodded and took Yaya away.

After finishing all this, it was almost noon, and a few people decided to go down the mountain.

Yan Shu knew that Feng Zhen'er didn't want to meet Liu Zhuo again, so she followed Feng Zhen'er and others out of the side door of the Thanksgiving Temple.

The road down the mountain was still difficult, and several people helped Feng Zhener stumble back to the place where the carriage was parked.

Feng Zhen'er looked back at the gate of Thanksgiving Temple and said:

"Sister, this is the last time I come here. I will have fewer opportunities in the future. If you can live in Kyoto for a long time in the future, come here to burn incense for me when you have time!"

Yan Shu thought that Feng Zhen'er was just getting more and more inconvenient, so she comforted her:

"Don't worry, sister. If you are really inconvenienced in the future, I will take care of it for you."

Horse hooves were tapping on the forest path of Huayin Mountain, and the people in the car were leaning tiredly, half awake and half asleep.

Yan Shu dreamed in a trance. She dreamed that peach blossoms were blooming along the way. She and Yaya parted ways with the densely blooming pink flowers, which smelled fragrant and sweet!
