Chapter 146 Lingquan Temple (1)
Lin Chengzhi was worried that Qingshu would go out alone and followed Qingshu out of the house: "Qingshu, I'll go with you!"
Qingshu shook his head and said, "No need for Uncle San, I'll go out and come back soon."
Seeing that she didn't want to follow her, Lin Chengzhi didn't force her: "Then you go to the back mountain in a crowded place. Now there are many snakes in the jungle in spring."
"Thank you, Uncle San."
Lin Chengzhi smiled and said, "If you want to thank you, it's time for Uncle San to thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have bought the store so soon."
It was not Qingshu's instructions that Mr. Gu would help him, otherwise he would not have paid attention to him.
Seeing that he was not shy about others, Qingshu asked with a smile: "Uncle San, does grandmother know about this?"
Lin Chengzhi smiled and nodded, "I know. Your grandmother said buying a shop is good. Even if you don't do business, you can rent it out and collect rent."
Those who make money buy houses and shops and buy land. These things can be passed on to future generations, so Old Mrs. Lin is very supportive when she wants to buy a shop, and she says that the money is not enough.
Qingshu nodded and asked again, "Uncle San, it seems that the third aunt was born in these few days, right?"
When Lin Chengzhi mentioned this, a smile appeared on his face: "The due date is only these few days. I took her to the county town a few days ago to find Dr. He. Dr. He said that your third aunt is in good health. As long as you have a good confinement period, you will not suffer from the root of the disease in the future. Qingshu, it will be a loss for your third aunt to be well maintained."
It is thanks to Qingshu that their family can have a good life now.
Qingshu was also very happy when he heard this: "It's good to be useful. By the way, Uncle San, did grandfather take back the woman and the child?"
Lin Chengzhi's face froze: "Every child, what do you do with this? You don't think you're bored in the house and want to go out for a walk, then go and go back quickly. Otherwise, you should have lunch."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Qingshu thought about going back and asking for inquiries.
I was in a very good mood when I looked at the beautiful forsythia and the green pine and cypress all over the mountains, and hummed songs while walking.
Seeing Qingshu's joyful look, Mother Qin couldn't help but wonder who she was going to meet.
Originally, she thought Qingshu was really out for a walk, but when she saw her going out, she could not guess that she was coming to see someone.
Qingshu is only four years old this month, so Qin's mother will not think about those messy places. She is just curious about who Qingshu is here to meet.
When he arrived outside a small yard, his mother Qin saw a little monk practicing martial arts through the fence.
Mama Qin was very surprised: "Girl, are you here to see this little monk?"
Qingshu laughed: "Mom, he is not a little monk, he just has prickly heat on his head and shaves his head."
Pushing open the wooden door, Qingshu smiled and shouted to the little monk who was practicing martial arts, "Xiaolin, I'm here to see you."
Old Mrs. Gu thought that Gou Sheng’s name was not good, and she didn’t want him to have any relationship with the Lin family anymore, so she asked his surname to be Gu.
Qingshu named Gou Sheng Xiaolin. Old Mrs. Gu thought Gu Xiaolin's name was too soft, so she removed the small characters and called Gu Lin directly. However, Qingshu still liked to call him Xiaolin.
Gu Lin was so happy when he saw Qingshu: "Qingshu, you come to see me."
After staying in Ganlu Temple for half a year, Gu Lin has changed a lot now. He was so skinny that he now has a round face and a bright and virtuous expression. No matter how timid he is, he probably won’t recognize him even if his father sees him.
Qingshu nodded and said, "My grandma comes to burn incense, so I will come with you."
Putting down the wooden stick in his hand, Gu Lin said, "The old lady is here? Then I'll kowtow to the old lady."
He knew that his good life was thankful for Mrs. Gu.
Qingshu shook his head and said, "We are here today. I will take you to see my grandmother next time. Xiaolin, have you practiced martial arts? Who taught you? How long have you been studying?"
Mama Qin laughed, her tone was like an elder.
Gu Lin grinned and showed a black teeth: "I learned from the monks in the temple. I have been learning it for more than four months since the beginning of winter last year."
After winter, there were no pilgrims going up the mountain, and the monks in the temple were relatively leisurely. The little monk who took care of him felt that Gu Lin was so pitiful that he was kept in lockup all day, so he took him around the temple.
Once, Gu Lin accidentally encountered several monks practicing martial arts. He thought that after learning martial arts well, no one would dare to bully him anymore, so he asked the monks to fight martial arts. When several monks saw that he really wanted to learn, they taught him.
Qingshu was relieved to see Gu Lin living such a good life in the temple.
After sending Qingshu to the door, Gu Lin said reluctantly: "Qingshu, when will you come to see me again?"
Qingshu smiled and said, "I will come to see you next month."
Old Mrs. Gu had already told her that she would take Gu Lin to the capital. So before leaving Taif County, she would definitely send someone to pick Gu Lin down the mountain.
Gu Lin was very obedient. Old Mrs. Gu and Qingshu asked him to stay in the temple and he just walked around the temple and never went outside.
Qingshu returned to the wing room and didn't see Mrs. Lin: "Grandma, mom, where have grandmother been?"
Old Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "She is a little tired and goes to the next room to rest."
Qingshu looked at Mrs. Gu's refreshing look and knew that the two of them might have had another argument. However, as long as Mrs. Gu did not suffer any losses, she would not ask more questions.
After lunch, the group went down the mountain.
Maybe it was wind blowing on the mountain, and An An had a high fever that night.
The fever went on and on. Old Mrs. Gu and Gu Xian took turns to guard it. The fever completely subsided after two days. However, the fever was still depressed when it subsided.
Lin Chengzhi came to deliver red eggs to his door and found out that An An was sick because of the incense and blew the wind: "It is very windy on the mountain, so it is really not advisable to take An An there."
Qingshu nodded and said, "My mother regretted it so much that her intestines were green. She would definitely not dare to take her to the mountain again in the future."
After saying that, Qingshu asked, "Uncle San, did Aunt San give birth to a boy or a girl?"
Lin Chengzhi said with joy on his face: "It's a boy. Qingshu, you have another younger brother."
Because Zhang's due date is just these few days, the gift Qingshu has been prepared for people. Two sets of clothes, shoes and socks, and a pair of silver bracelets.
When Qingshu saw Lin Chengzhi refusing, he smiled and said, "This is my mother's wish to my third brother. Uncle San should not refuse. It is also because An An is sick and cannot leave anyone. Otherwise, my mother would go back to the countryside to visit her third aunt and her third brother."
After getting this, Lin Chengzhi didn't shy away any more and said with a smile: "Then I'll thank you for San'er."
After An An recovered from illness for two days, Old Mrs. Lin sent someone to tell her that she would go to Shuilian Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings.
Old Mrs. Gu did not stop Gu Xian, but just said, "You can go, but An An can't."
This incident made Old Mrs. Gu know that An An looks the same as her peers, but she is actually very weak.
Gu Xian nodded and said, "Even if my mother doesn't say it, I don't dare to take An An up the mountain anymore."
Last time Qingshu disagreed with taking An An, because she insisted on taking her there, which made the child sick.
Gu Xian has indeed changed a lot in the past six months. Although it is still annoying sometimes, it always changes. Old Mrs. Gu is already very satisfied with this, and she never dares to expect Gu Xian to become as caring as Qingshu.
When Qingshu came back from school, he knew about this and said, "Mom, I won't go to school. Mom, let Mom Qin follow you."
Gu Xian refused and said, "No, Xia Yue can just go with you."
Qingshu knew Gu Xian's temperament, and she said with a stern face: "Mom, if you don't let Mom Qin go with you, you are not allowed to go."
Gu Xian was amused and crying: "Why are you still in charge of me?"
Old Mrs. Gu thought about the virtues of these people in the Lin family and said, "It's not enough for Mama Qin to be alone, so let Uncle Zhong follow you."
Gu Xian didn't want to: "Mom, you can let Mom Qin follow you, but Uncle Zhong forget it."
When Mrs. Gu saw that she had made up her mind, she stopped forcing her: "Please pray to God and Buddha to pray to her is just to be at peace. Whether she can pass the exam depends on Chengyu himself."
Gu Xian nodded and said, "Mom, I know."
That being said, she felt that if her husband sincerely prayed to the Bodhisattva, she might be lucky to pass the exam.
Going to Ganlu Temple and Shuilian Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings is just the beginning. Next, Mrs. Lin will go to worship any famous places.
That day, Gu Xian came back from the Fairy Temple after raising the incense. Qingshu couldn't help but laugh: "Mom, this time it's the Fairy Temple to burn incense. I won't go to the Guanyin Temple to send my son to the next time, right?"
It’s not enough to forget the Guanyin Temple in Jade Emperor Hall, but even the Fairy Temple is going to worship Qingshu, he is speechless.
Gu Xian said with a stern face: "If you want to speak wildly again, copy the Diamond Sutra and the Filial Piety for me twenty times."
Qingshu stopped talking.
Old Mrs. Lin worshipped all the famous temples and Taoist temples in Taifen County. Qingshu thought it was calm now. However, in April, Old Mrs. Lin said she would go to Lingquan Temple in the Mansion to burn incense and worship Buddha.
Qingshu was a little puzzled when he knew this. He had been with Mrs. Lin for more than ten years in his previous life, but he had never heard her mention Lingquan Temple.
Old Mrs. Gu said the same thing as Qingshu: "She wants to worship the temples and Taoist temples in the entire prefecture before she can stop!"
Gu Xian said: "Mother-in-law is also for her husband."
Old Mrs. Gu is too lazy to say it.
Qingshu didn't want to follow her, but since she knew about this, she was restless and her eyes twitched.
Thinking of the words Mrs. Gu said to her before, Qingshu and Gu Xian said, "Mom, I'll go to Lingquan Temple with you."
Gu Xian said in surprise: "You go too?"
"Since my grandmother said that the Bodhisattvas in Lingquan Temple were very effective, I would definitely go there. As long as my father passed the Jinshi exam, no one would call me a village girl in the future."
Gu Xian was very happy to see that she had this awareness: "Okay, go with me."
When Qingshu saw Gu Xian let go, she said to the old lady: "Grandma, this time I went to the capital city, please pick a few guards to go to the capital city with us!"
Gu Xian refused: "What do you want to protect me when I go to burn incense? Your grandmother said that we are dishonest when she sees it."
Qingshu said unhappily: "If you are not sincere in taking a few guards, don't just take a carriage. It's more pious to walk to Lingquan Temple."
