The Crossing of Fortune and Prayer Jubilee

For Lou Yuzhu, this oolong matter was not enough to make him extremely angry, and it was a shame to abandon it.He sincerely regards Li Shang, Sun Jinyi, etc. as friends, and to Li Yue, he went for his close friends, but the reality slapped him, forgetting that this world does not pay attention to wealth or wealth, but to expensive.Li Shangyi was born in a wealthy family, no matter how much money Lou Yuzhu makes, in the eyes of others, he is still a flattering villain.Thinking of this, Lou Yuzhu also probably wanted to know the relationship between him and Pei Guanying in the eyes of others. Could it be that he thought he wanted to climb on Pei Guanying's bed and fly up to the branches?But with his background, he might not even be able to enter the gate of Jingyanghou Mansion. Does that mean he wants to be a young man?Thinking of this, Lou Yuzhu shuddered violently and was so disgusted by herself.

Lou Yuzhu, who was disgusted by herself, was even worse now, and she didn't even have the heart to worship the Buddha, and found an excuse to come out and hide.It’s just that Xixia Temple is a famous temple full of tourists, and there is no place to be quiet. In the end, I can only sit on a stone pier in the corner and watch an old monk sweep the dead leaves. After sweeping again, the wind blows again. To scan again.

"The old monk can't finish sweeping like this for a few days. It's not too late to wait for the wind to stop and wait for the leaves to be replaced."

The old monk raised his head: "The wind won't stop the dead leaves, so we won't sweep them? That person will die once he dies?"

Lou Yuzhu was stunned, then smiled and said: "The old monk is so funny, why is it related to life and death when he is talking about dead leaves?"

"The donor is also very interesting. The duty of the old monk is to provide a clean environment for passing pilgrims, but the donor persuades the old monk not to sweep, so what's the point of the old monk here?"

"I didn't say not to let the old monk sweep it, I just want the old monk to wait for the wind to stop and wait for the leaves to be replaced, so as not to waste that effort."

"Does the benefactor know when the wind stops and when the leaves will be replaced?" Seeing Lou Yuzhu stunned, she smiled and said, "Since the benefactor doesn't know, he advises the old monk to wait. If the wind never stops and the leaves are never replaced, then the old monk will not be able to renew the leaves." Just never sweep?"

Lou Yuzhu was taken aback by something in the old monk's words, and looked carefully at the old monk in front of him, only to realize that the old monk was not dull and dull, obviously he was hiding deep wisdom and stupidity.Seeing that Lou Yuzhu didn't understand, she pretended to be angry and said: "I kindly persuaded the old monk not to do useless work, and the old monk still played with me without saying a word of thanks. What's the reason?"

"The old monk tells the truth, how can he talk about it?"

"You still say it's not a joke? I was just persuading, but the old monk hides deep fear in every word. Does this mean that he wants me to devote myself to the Buddha and become a monk?"

The old monk smiled: "Will the benefactor wholeheartedly become a monk to the Buddha?"

Lou Yuzhu said firmly: "No."

"The old monk, why bother to persuade the almsgiver?"

Lou Yuzhu, who was choked by her own words and had nothing to say, was upset, and stretched out three fingers and said, "It's okay if you want me to devote myself to the Buddha, as long as the old monk answers my three questions." Seeing the old monk raised his eyes, the corners of his mouth curled up He smiled and said: "Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going? As long as the old monk can answer, I will consider becoming a monk."

"The old monk doesn't know who the benefactor is, nor does he know where the benefactor came from, and he doesn't know where the benefactor is going. The old monk only knows that the benefactor is kind. At this time, there is a little melancholy, and there is also the sorrow of ordinary people."

"The old monk's words are somewhat interesting. What do you mean I have ordinary people's worries? Am I not an ordinary person?" After speaking, Lou Yuzhu's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at the old monk with a numb scalp, feeling a little drummed.It happened that Huang Ying came out to look for someone, and Lou Yuzhu hurriedly got up to follow.

It's just that within a few quarters of an hour, the monks in the temple looked up in admiration. According to the legend, it was Master Huineng who had traveled here to give the lecture.Isn't the benevolent and kind-looking monk in the scarlet cassock the old monk in common clothes sweeping fallen leaves?Thinking of all the legends about this No.1 Buddhist school, Lou Yuzhu restlessly followed Fu Lin's book to listen to the scriptures, but after half an hour of lectures, she didn't remember a single word.

Afterwards, Master Huineng blessed the believers, and Xu Se and Fu Linshu pulled Zhang Ling and Lou Yuzhu up together.It's just that there are a lot of people, and they sat at the back at the beginning, and they were already the last group when it was their turn.

Lou Yuzhu's scalp was numb, not sure what Huineng meant, but Fu Linshu and Xu Se didn't understand his thoughts at all, they kept urging him to come forward and patted his head to calm him down.Lou Yuzhu was about to cry, but she was pushed forcefully in front of Huineng, and then her hand was held by the other party.

Lou Yuzhu shuddered all over, afraid that the other party would catch him and shout evildoer, considering the status of the other party in the hearts of the world, it would not be a problem to torture him to death every minute!

It's just that Huineng didn't raise his voice to shout evildoers or anything. He held Lou Yuzhu's hand with a smile and wrote the word "good" on his palm, and then wrapped the prayer beads he used for chanting around his wrist a few times, saying: "Look You are merciful to all living beings and spread blessings widely."

Not to mention how surprised others were that Huineng sent out the Buddhist beads, but Lou Yuzhu was totally taken aback.Even being dragged out of the hall by Fu Linshu was still dazed, and he got on his horse and rode a long way before returning to his senses.Afterwards, the spirit shook and he dropped the sentence that there was still something to do, then he ignored Lou Chengyi and the others and yelled, whipping his horsewhip wildly towards Xixia Temple.

As soon as I arrived at Xixia Temple, I got off my horse and even ignored the horse. I caught a young monk and asked, "Where is Master Huineng?!"

The little monk hesitated and touched his head, Lou Yuzhu gave up impatiently and ran inside to find the big monk who was the one to talk to.The great monk knew about it, and performed a Buddha ceremony, saying, "Master Huineng has already left after the lecture, saying that he will continue to travel and practice."

Nervousness, palpitation, and fear are poured with a bucket of ice water at this time, and the heart is immediately chilled. "Did you say where to go? Is there any way to contact him?"

"Master Huineng has always loved to travel around the world, and he used all kinds of travel methods as the method of practice. He is used to counting wherever he goes."

The implication is that the destination is unknown and the return date is uncertain?Lou Yuzhu was depressed and vomited blood, thinking that these magic stick attributes really love to pretend!After saying thanks and leaving Xixia Temple, Lou Yuzhu got on the horse in a daze, looked back at Xixia Temple and thought of Huineng's words of "compassion to all living beings, spreading blessings widely", and a strangeness flashed between his brows and eyes.

With this strange feeling, Lou Yuzhu hit the horse and joined Lou Chengyi first, found a reason to fool around, went back to Yan's Village and thought about it all night, went to Lou Chengyi, found a foreshadowing, and said first: "Father, we My family now has nearly [-] mu of fertile land, and it’s a pity that we only plant one season of rice and the rest of the time is left unused, why don’t we clean up and plant two crops of rice?”

Lou Chengyi shook his head: "Two seasons can't be planted. If the good seeds don't germinate, even if they are planted, they will freeze to death."

Throwing ungerminated seeds in the field will surely freeze to death. Lou Yuzhu complained in her heart, but said in her mouth: "Then why don't you try the method of using out-of-season vegetables? Raise the sprouts and scatter them in the field. Don’t you pay attention to keeping the temperature so you won’t get cold?”

Lou Chengyi's eyes widened, and he had the feeling of waking up someone in his dream. Thinking of the growth of vegetables that sprouted to keep the temperature, he was so excited that he was almost incoherent. "Is it really feasible? What if it doesn't work?"

"Then let's do an experiment first. It's good if it succeeds, and it's okay if it doesn't." Seeing Lou Chengyi's hesitation, he said with a smile: "Anyway, our family does not lack the harvest of the few acres of land, but if it succeeds It is a great merit for the country and the people.”

Lou Chengyi didn't agree with Lou Yuzhu's persuasive temptation, so he started experimenting with two seasons of rice wholeheartedly.

Not to mention the test results and speed, the end of the year is soon approaching, and Linnanwan Haikou Jungonglou Yuzhu and Zhou Cheng are busy with the hotel chain.Inviting Mr. Mu and Pei Guanying to Sanfang for a lively New Year as usual, after the Lantern Festival, the atmosphere of the New Year fades away, and after that, the opening of chain hotels and tea shops. .

The invitation was to invite a family. After thinking about it, Lou Yuzhu didn't let Lou Chengyi and his wife go. As for Lou Hua and Lou Ming, who were busy with their studies and preparing for the scientific examination in October, they couldn't get away. Pei Guanying was also one of the inviters. It's a pity that Mr. Mu detained him to focus on studying. After all, he is also a member of this year's scientific examination. As for Mr. Mu, Li Yue really wanted to invite him, but Mr. Mu's performance was too cold and the other party was too embarrassed to invite him.In the end, Zhou Cheng was free and went with Lou Yuzhu.

This day the weather was excellent and the temperature was pleasant. Lou Yuzhu and Zhou Cheng came to the Li Mansion where there were many guests. The time was a matter of time. Pass the invitation to the steward, and then be invited to the banquet set up by the side courtyard.

The so-called side courtyard banquet is the guests who are not taken seriously and come to the door actively, and the groom is not allowed to come here to toast.Lou Yuzhu and Zhou Cheng looked at each other, their faces darkened.The two of them were not so conceited that they should be invited into the main hall to treat them favorably, but they shouldn't be invited to the side courtyard in terms of friendship. At least they could get the tail seat in the main hall, but the two of them didn't even get a tail seat, and After that, no one paid any attention to it, completely ignoring it from the beginning to the end!

Even though Xiao was as calm as Lou Yuzhu, she couldn't help but feel angry. A table full of delicious food and wine only moved two chopsticks, and then left the table without waiting for the dishes to be served.When the two left Li's mansion, Lou Yuzhu raised the curtain of the carriage and looked back at the imposing mansion behind her, then calmly lowered the curtain.He really wanted to have a sincere friendship, but it was a pity that the other party looked down on him, and there was no need for a deep friendship in the future.

Li Yue, who had been busy for several days and was dizzy, sent away most of the guests, hid in his study for a while, picked up the gift book and flipped through it, and when he saw half of his eyes changed, he called the manager: "Zhou Cheng and Lou Didn't I arrange Yuzhu and the other two to be at the end of the main courtyard? Where are they?"

Shocked by the expression on Li Yue's face, the beating steward wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in astonishment: "It was taken away by Mrs. Yujun, and the younger one also said that this is a seat arranged by the young master himself, but Mrs. Yujun said that he would follow me." You said, so..."

"So you automatically arranged my seat?!" Li Yue threw the gift book down, and the steward's legs softened and he knelt on the ground in fright.Li Yue's face is somber, Yujun's husband is his own father, he is the official husband of the entire Li Mansion's backyard, and he is also a serious fifth-rank imperial husband. It is reasonable to move the two guest positions, but the problem lies in the relationship between these two people special.Although Zhou Cheng was born as a servant of Pei Guanying, the two have a deep relationship, which is obvious to all. Zhou Cheng is one of the representatives before Pei Guanying has something to do. However, the matter of the mahjong rest hall had brought him so many connections with the Li family, and he couldn't wait for it due to emotion and reason.But now these two special guests have been offended by his father! "You will be fined for three months, and you will be demoted to a second-class manager. Go down."

After dealing with the steward's affairs, Li Yue went to find his father, Li Zhifu.

After listening to Li Yue's report, Li Zhifu immediately sank his face: "This success is more than failure!"

Anyone who is scolded by his father in front of him will feel uncomfortable, but Li Yue also has to say that his father has indeed done this. "Son, let's go tomorrow. No matter what, you can't leave it alone."

Li Zhifu pondered, thought for a while and said: "You are newly married, so don't worry about it, I will let Lao Lin go." Li Yue is his heir, and it may not lose face to ask him to apologize for everything.

Li Yue thought about it and agreed.It's just that they didn't know that it was this negligence that made their Li family miss the future Lou family, and they regretted it too late.
