Plane Convenience Store

"Miss Xingzi, has she been abandoned..." Lu Lu said dryly, "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked this."

"It's nothing, it's a common thing in Heian-kyo." Izumo Kunimori said with a tired face: "Besides, she's not considered abandoned. That man married Kyoko after all. He just moved on. I fell in love with another woman, and I haven't visited Xingzi for a long time."

In the era of Heianjing, there was still the most primitive custom of walking marriage.

After the big marriage, the woman still lives in her parents' home, and the man will meet the woman at night.

But once the lover has a new love, the man will go to the new love's house to spend the night, while the woman has to stay alone in the empty room.

This is not a big deal in Heian-kyo.

In addition to his main wife, every noble son will also have countless lovers.

If any man has only one woman, he will definitely be ridiculed by everyone—this must be such an incomprehensible and boring man, that he doesn't even have a woman who admires him!

"Actually, this old man can also understand that man. Men, they can't help but linger in the flowers and face a woman all day. Even nostalgic people will get tired of it."

"However, even if he doesn't come, with the old man around, as long as the old man is alive, Kyoko can maintain a decent life! She and her child will not be bullied!"

Speaking of this, Izumo Kunimori sighed deeply: "Besides, no matter whether he comes or not, he cannot deny the fact that Kyoko is his wife. I persuade Kyoko to open up, but who would have thought that Kyoko would be so angry that she could not get angry for a while. , and even shaved off her hair to become a nun!"

"Oh, how can she be so stupid!"

"What a pity, Miss Kyoko..."

Hearing this, Lu Lu also deeply felt sorry for Xingzi.

For a girl like Kyoko, if she was born in modern times, she would definitely be a good woman who dares to love and hate.

But in ancient times, even her father didn't understand her behavior, but thought she was too arrogant to do so.

Indeed, Lu Lu also thought so, anyway, that scumbag is not here anymore, and it would be a pity to use other people's mistakes to punish himself.

Accompanied by Izumo Kunisaki, he scolded the man for his ruthlessness, and deeply regretted that Kyoko became a monk for a while.

When Izumo Kokushou calmed down a little, Lu Lu said: "Dare to ask, what do you want to buy this time, or do you still want to buy hot pot ingredients? To tell you the truth, it's getting late, and I'm going to close the shop."

"Sorry for bothering you." Izumo Kunimori said apologetically, "I am here this time to find some Buddhist scriptures from Tang Dynasty for my little girl."

"The little girl has now converted to Buddha and is extremely devout, so she abstained from appetite. Whether it's fish or delicious hot pot, she doesn't eat at all."

Speaking of hot pot, Izumo Kunisaki felt helpless for a while: "It can be seen that my daughter still loves Datang's food very much. At least this hot pot base, every time I bring it back, she can use half a bowl of rice. But after becoming a monk, No matter how much the old man persuades, she is determined not to eat, such a heartless daughter does not understand her father's feelings at all, this old man really has nothing to do with her."

Although Izumo Kunomamori complained again, Lu Lu could hear a deep affection from it.

Sure enough, Izumo Kunisaki said again: "But there is no way, who let the old man give birth to such an unfilial daughter! She doesn't eat fish, and she doesn't eat novel food from the Tang Dynasty. The old man thought, although the appetite She has given up, but she still likes other things from Datang. My daughter has admired Datang's literature and ink since she was a child, so I have the cheek to find two Buddhist scriptures to make my daughter happy."

"Buddhist scriptures, we really don't sell these in our store." Lu Lu said: "But you caught up with the good time, and someone just gave me a few copies. the paper on which they were printed."

After finishing speaking, Lu Lu asked Izumo Guoshou to wait for a while, while he went to get the book under the bed.

Of course, Lu Lu wouldn't buy Buddhist scriptures, but there was a huge pile under his bed, filling a corner.

These Buddhist scriptures were all given by one of his relatives.

That relative often helped out in the temple, so for a long time, countless pamphlets were stuffed by many lay Buddhists.

In order to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, those lay Buddhists donated a lot of money to the monastery and printed a lot of Buddhist scriptures, giving them to everyone they met.

Therefore, this Chinese New Year, relatives also distributed this kind of Buddhist scriptures everywhere, and Lu Lu's house was stuffed with a stack, but his parents didn't read them, so they gave them all to him again.

There were a lot of pamphlets of all kinds, and Lu Lu picked out a few of them, thought about it, and finally took them all out, planning to hand them all to Izumo Kunisaki.

"That's all, you take them all away."

"This, is this okay?"

Seeing the book that can be described as a bundle, Izumo Kunimori's jaw almost dropped in shock.

He came to ask for a book, thinking that getting one would be a big gain.But I didn't expect the shopkeeper to be so sincere. When he said to send books, he really delivered them by taxi.

"It's okay, I don't read this kind of book, you can take it."

When Lu Lu was bored, he turned over two pages, which were full of karma. He looked bored, so he threw it under the bed to collect dust.

Moreover, another reason that made him unable to read was the classical Chinese and the crazy traditional Chinese characters.

It's the 21st century now, which layman can't figure it out, and still prints traditional Chinese characters?

Isn't this forcing the majority of believers to fail to read?

I give zero points for this missionary level!

Lu Lu used to be criticized for the traditional Chinese characters in the whole article, but now he can't help but be thankful that they are all traditional Chinese characters.

The content in the book can be understood by any customer in the store, but when they take it back, they lose the ability to understand it.

Lu Lu didn't know what the characters in the Heian-kyo era looked like, but he thought that the characters used in the Tang Dynasty at that time should have something in common with the traditional characters.

Take it back in this way, even if there is something you don't understand, you should be able to guess it by contacting the context.

After handing over all the books to Izumo Guoshou, Lu Lu hung up the sign and hurried back to rest.

As for the Izumo country guard, after thanking him, he picked up the scriptures and left in a hurry, hurrying back to find his daughter.

……

Back home, Izumo Kunisaki didn't bother to take a break, so he went directly to Kyoko's room, intending to hand over the scriptures to her.

He went to the convenience store many times, but every time he couldn't figure out how the time in the two worlds passed.

Sometimes it's daytime here, and it's nighttime at the convenience store.But sometimes it is dark here, and the convenience store is still at night.

On this day, he went there during the day.

Therefore, he waited outside the door for his daughter to finish reading the scriptures before calling her attention and showing her the scriptures in his hand.

"Father, what are these?"

"Buddhist scriptures are still obtained from the Tang Dynasty."

Seeing his daughter's face now, Izumo Kunimori felt sad again.

The usual gorgeous and complicated twelve singles have now been replaced by a monotonous black suit.

And Xingzi's satin-like black long hair was cruelly strangled by her because she became a monk.

Izumo Kunimori feels distressed every time he sees Kyoko draped down to his shoulders.

Before becoming a monk, his daughter always cherished her own hair, and the ankle-length hair was also taken care of beautifully by her.

Let the precious daughter cut them off cruelly, which shows how much pain and despair she felt at that time!

Thinking of this, Izumo Kunimori couldn't bear to blame his daughter anymore.

At the same time, he also secretly blamed himself, because he didn't know people clearly, so he was negligent and let an unkind nobleman sneak in.

If Kyoko's reputation had not been ruined due to the incident with his son, his daughter would have been able to enter the palace to serve the Emperor!

If he could do it all over again, he would definitely ask his servants to knock that kid out of the door, so that he would never see his daughter again in his life.Even if it's a waka, don't want his daughter to see it!

It's a pity that the past is like running water, and regrets cannot be pursued.No matter how much he hated that person, he couldn't change the fact that his daughter had become a monk.

As a man, he could see clearly that that man no longer had feelings for his daughter.

So far, he can only educate his grandson well, so that when he grows old, his daughter will have someone to rely on, and will not be reduced to a situation where she is forced to smile among flower visitors in order to seek shelter, so as to survive .

The Izumo country guard was secretly worried about Kyoko's future, and Kyoko, she took the scriptures, flipped to a page at random, and saw a sentence from the "Diamond Sutra"-if you think about it, if you don't think about it.If there is no thought, it is not without thought.

"The scriptures of the Tang Dynasty are really extraordinary..."

She murmured, and couldn't help but looked up at her father, only to see him sighing: "I'm sorry, Father, Xingzi troubled you."

"You don't care about anything, that's what really bothers me."

Izumo Kunomamori said helplessly: "Although you are devout, the Buddha didn't let anyone quit even vegetarian food. Now that you get the scriptures, you are happy. Can you eat more? I forgot to ask for hot pot miso this time. But the ordinary miso soup is not lacking at home from time to time.”

"Sorry, father, I, I will try to eat some..."

Even if she becomes a monk, Kyoko can't break the feelings that ordinary people can have for a while.

Seeing her father worrying about her affairs, she was deeply ashamed of her waywardness.

She doesn't want to mention that man anymore, she just wants to study Buddhism now and pursue a peace of mind, but if she can make her father feel at ease, being devout... is also something that needs to be left behind.

Kyoko nodded, and Izumo Kunimori was overjoyed.

He waited for his daughter to collect the books, and hurriedly ordered the servants to prepare meals and dishes as soon as possible, as well as the indispensable miso.

At the same time, he slapped his forehead and asked the maids to bring him the jar of candied fruit he got from Datang.

Datang's candied fruit is also Xingzi's favorite food.

Before Xingzi didn't eat it, he kept it. Now that Xingzi let go, he naturally wanted to take it out to let his daughter satisfy her hunger.

Since becoming a Buddhist, Xingzi has been quite reluctant to eat food.

But seeing her father's earnest gaze, Xingzi still forced herself to move the chopsticks, and tasted a candied fruit first.

It's a pity that with just one sip, her cold heart was disturbed by the sweetness.

The sweet candied fruit seemed to have broken all her previous persistence.

That's why she resists eating so much...

The cherry blossoms in late spring have been buried in the ground, but the new flowers will surely bloom in the coming spring.

The author has something to say: There was a bug, and it was changed to Xingzi who was offended by a noble son at night, and had no choice but to marry him...
