Monk, this child is yours

Chapter 42 Gratitude

The moment the steamer was opened, the smell of food rushed over them. They kept swallowing their saliva, but they didn't dare to go forward. They could only be quiet, watching every movement of Yan Huayan with their eyes motionless.

Zhang Wu and the three of them also stared straight at the steamer. The three of them were captured by the smell of potatoes after eating potatoes a few days ago. Food is also considered sacred.

Yan Huayan picked up a steamed potato with her chopsticks, and looked at the person under the steps calmly, "This is already a steamed potato, now everyone can line up in order to get one each, and you can also get ten yuan at the same time." Potato seeds, the method of planting is to plant this toothed tuber in the vegetable field, and then water it, and it will mature in a few days. To make mature potatoes germinate, the whole potato must be placed in the Shady places are delicious, and sprouted potatoes can only be planted as seeds, not edible."

Yan Huayan spoke seriously, some of the refugees were listening, but some of them couldn't listen at all, they kept staring at the steamed potatoes. As for the potato seeds, they didn't care at all.

After Yan Huayan finished speaking, Zhang Wu and the others urged the people under the steps, "Everyone, arrange the order quickly, and the food and seeds will be distributed in a while."

They immediately stood up from the steps and stood quietly in a row. From time to time, they looked at Master Wujian who was quietly sitting aside. Unfortunately, they couldn't see the appearance of Master Wujian clearly, but they all felt a sense of awe in their hearts.

Wu Jian waited for everyone to arrange their order before speaking, his gentle and refined voice attracted everyone.

"The benefactor can eat this thing, and the poor monk hopes that the benefactor will plant this thing carefully. I believe that in the near future, the people of Yecheng will be able to move out without starving."

Everyone was silent because of this simple and expectant words.They also want to be full and have a stable home, but they are always running for food.If there is a day when they can eat enough, they will definitely stop and build a warm home.

The clean and gentle voice echoed in their ears for a long time, and they also calmed down, waiting for Yan Huayan to distribute food and seeds.

Yan Huayan gave Zhang Wu a look, and Zhang Wu, Li Ying, and Wang Wen walked over immediately. Zhang Wu placed the potatoes in the steamer on the wide leaves prepared in advance, and Li Ying also placed the same number of seeds on the wide leaves. On the leaves, Wang Wen was in charge of allocating the refugees who lined up neatly.

When they received the hot potatoes and seeds with trembling hands, some couldn't believe it, and some doubted, could the things in their hands really be eaten?

Even though they were hungry, they didn't rush to eat, but looked at Yan Huayan eagerly. Yan Huayan seemed to know what they were thinking. After peeling the potatoes on the chopsticks, they took a light bite and chewed, "Don't worry, everyone." , this food is edible."

Seeing that Yan Huayan ate the food in their hands naturally, they couldn't wait to take a bite of the potato in their hands. Even though their teeth hurt from being scalded, they were not surprised, took a few quick bites with their teeth and swallowed it, and then He squinted his eyes and couldn't stop praising, "It's delicious. It's delicious..."

"Mom, it's delicious. This is the best thing I've ever eaten." The little girl gnawed on the potatoes bit by bit, afraid that they would be gone after eating them, and she couldn't eat any more. The mother next to her looked very upset. With pity, he stuffed the half-eaten potato into the little girl's hand, "Eat it, after eating, we can still grow it."

The girl looked up at her mother, and the familiar face of her mother was no longer the melancholy and sorrow of the past. The girl smiled "hehe", took a big bite of the potato, and handed the bitten potato to her mother's mouth, "Mother, eat it too!" .”

"Okay." The woman squinted her eyes and took a bite quietly, then looked in the direction of Wujian, knelt down in the direction of Wujian, and bowed devoutly, grateful, the emotion of gratitude is beyond words.

The last ones who came to Jinghua Temple were honest people, so after the woman bowed to Wu Jian piously, everyone else also knelt down one after another.

"Thank you master for giving us food and grain seeds."

"Thank you Master for giving us such good food."

"Thank you Buddha for showing mercy to the common people in the world."

……

Words of thanks came out of their mouths, and they kowtowed and sat quietly like kowtowing to reborn parents. How many times they expected the court to rescue them, but they were disappointed again and again, watching their relatives and friends around them starve to death. After waking up, they had no choice but to leave the place where they lived not long ago.

They also want to go to a place as prosperous as the capital, and they also want to live a better life, but their ancestors all lived here, so they can only migrate to survive, and then return here when the situation improves.

Now that someone is willing to give them food and seeds, they are so grateful that they can’t speak, they can only keep prostrating, sincerely hoping to have a better life in the future.

Wu Jian looked at the people bowing to him, felt their emotions, opened his lips slightly, and silently recited a scripture.

Those kneeling people raised their heads the moment they heard the scriptures, and listened quietly, and their excited emotions became calm, just like the scriptures say, "the heart is like still water".

They felt sunshine, warmth, and vitality from the scriptures, as if those difficult years never existed.

In the past, when their living conditions were good, they would go to visit eminent monks, or when they had important matters that were difficult to decide, they would also ask the master for answers.

But I have never heard such a deeply felt scripture, as long as I listen to it once, I can repeat it out of my mouth, as long as I recite it silently in my heart, my whole body will be warm and full of energy.

Such miraculous scriptures fascinate them.

At the moment when the scriptures came to an abrupt end, they stood up one after another as if they had received the guidance of God, and walked down the mountain with the food and seeds in their hands.

Their minds are full of hope, they want to plant the seeds in their hands immediately, they want to become like the scriptures say, food and clothing.

After the refugees left, Yan Huayan looked at Zhang Wu and the three who were still immersed in the scriptures and said: "Go and protect those people, don't let others rob the food and steal the seeds."

The three of them looked at Yan Huayan in a daze, and then recovered and answered "Yes".

Although Yan Huayan ordered three people to protect the 36 people, he himself had to watch out for those people to avoid accidents, because those people would be the first group of people who would make Ye City prosperous.

After those people left, Ye Qingshuang came out from Jinghua Temple, walked slowly to Wujian, knelt and sat next to Wujian, smiled and said: "Master, the scriptures you read just now are really nice, can you read it again? "

Ye Qingshuang looked at Wu Jian with bright eyes, but Wu Jian didn't respond, and whispered the scriptures to Ye Qingshuang again.

It wasn't until the scriptures were finished that Ye Qingshuang quietly looked at the empty steps and sighed: "Just now I saw those refugees through the crack of the door, and felt pity in my heart. When I smile for a moment, I feel that it is a beautiful thing.”

Ye Qingshuang was silent for a while, staring seriously into Wujian's eyes, "Master, thank you!"

In the 21st century, he never knew the sufferings of the people. He stopped eating when he was full, and threw away everything as long as it was a little bit bad.

Thinking about it now, he really wasted food too much.

If he does it again, he will definitely not waste food or waste money.

That's why he wanted to thank Wujian for allowing him to see a world he didn't know and feel different emotions.

Wu Jian lowered his eyes and shook his head, "It was the benefactor who saved them."

After Ye Qingshuang heard this, her smile deepened, she stood up, and looked down at Wu Jian, "We will plant more food for everyone in the future, how about planting together?"

Wu Jian was silent for a long time before saying: "Maybe at that time it was not Wu Jian, but Mr. Han."

Ye Qingshuang shook her head after hearing this, and said in her heart: Anyway, they are all alone, aren't they?
