Chapter 159: Nothing to ask for is a good life
We were climbing the mountain while talking, and before we knew it, we were almost there and could see the gate.
As for Changle, he had walked all the way here by himself, so there was a little sweat on his cheeks, which Shen Ruyi wiped gently.
I accidentally wiped off some of the stuff I put on my face. It seems I urgently need to prepare some ointment that won't hurt my skin.
Shen Ruyi used a handkerchief to spread it evenly.
Aunt Wang took a knowing look and said, "With such outstanding facial features, how could his complexion be so dark?"
"We really should cover up the child. You don't know that the waters in our capital are very deep. Some people are not even human.
From now on, when you go out, you must keep a close eye on the child and dress him as casually as possible. Otherwise, I am afraid you will not be able to protect him."
Aunt Wang, these are words from the bottom of your heart.
"I understand, Aunt Wang, thank you. I'll ask someone to make some ointment and apply it next time I go out."
"If you don't know anyone, you can look for Doctor Wang. He's my uncle, he's a good doctor and a good person. I can introduce him to you."
"Is it convenient, Aunt Wang?"
"What's so inconvenient about this? After we finish worshipping Buddha and burning incense, you can send someone and my maid to go to Doctor Wang's house."
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Wang."
"You're welcome. I don't know why, but when I saw you guys, I felt like we were particularly compatible. This might be our destiny."
"Yeah, it's fate that we meet."
The higher we went, the more people there were. It was no longer suitable for chatting, so the few of us stopped talking.
The vigorous old trees and the simple and majestic temple stand before your eyes, and the sound of wooden fish knocking can instantly calm your heart.
Several groups of people passed by who had finished their worship and were about to go down the mountain.
Shen Ruyi directly picked up Changle.
It’s better to hold it, it’s safer.
Several people entered the main hall one after another. The golden Buddhas and Bodhisattvas had solemn demeanors and compassionate faces, looking at the world with lowered brows and eyes.
It seems as if he is lamenting, why are all living beings unwilling to turn back?
Shen Ruyi put Changle down, followed Aunt Wang, knelt down and kowtowed three times before standing up.
Many modern people do not believe this and call it superstition, but Shen Ruyi has always believed in it.
Of course, her faith did not lead to conversion, and she could not be considered a strict Buddhist disciple.
She not only believes in Buddhism, she also believes in Taoism.
To be precise, she respects all Buddhism and Taoism.
Regardless of whether you have seen it or not, it is always right to respect all living things.
Changle Yiren and the maid all knelt down and bowed.
After turning around the main hall and walking to the left hall, I saw some people drawing lots and queuing up.
Aunt Wang obviously wanted to draw a fortune, so Shen Ruyi followed her.
Aunt Wang was standing at the back of the line. Shen Ruyi had nothing to ask or request, so she pulled Changle to the side and accompanied her.
"Ruyi, Yiren, don't you want one?"
"Auntie Wang, I'm fine right now. There's nothing to ask, so I won't ask."
"I don't need to ask for anything. The present days are the best days." Yiren added.
After hearing this, Aunt Wang agreed.
A good life is when you have nothing to ask for.
"Mammy, do you want to beg for something? If you do, just line up and beg for something."
Shen Ruyi asked the nanny.
Mammy hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it, I won't ask anymore. I just want to know whether my young lady and the others have been reincarnated. I won't ask now."
"Mammy, just ask whatever you want to ask. We're here now." Shen Ruyi replied.
After hearing this, the nanny hesitated for a while, and finally lined up behind Aunt Wang.
Soon it was Aunt Wang's turn. Aunt Wang was nervous, and before drawing the lots, she hugged Changle tightly again, as if Changle could give her strength.
Changle was also held in a daze and looked at Aunt Wang.
Aunt Wang closed her eyes, muttered something, and picked up the bucket.
After shaking it a few times, a stick flew out and landed at Changle's feet. Aunt Wang didn't dare to look at it, for fear of drawing a bad fortune.
Seeing this, Changle picked it up and said, "Shangshang..., brother, how do you pronounce the word below?"
Shen Ruyi took a look and said, "This is a signature. It's a very good one. Aunt Wang drew a very good one."
After hearing this, Aunt Wang opened her eyes, squatted down with tears in her eyes, and looked at the stick in Changle's hand. Was it really a good stick?
He hugged Changle and kissed her fiercely, making Changle even more confused.
When Changle was let go, Changle saw tears on her aunt's face and wiped her tears with her hands, at a loss.
"Don't cry, don't cry, auntie. If you want to kiss me, just go ahead. Changle will let you kiss me."
Aunt Wang hugged Changle and kissed him a few more times, "You are really my little lucky star."
Changle laughed out loud.
Shen Ruyi took out the fortune slip and took a look at it. It said: Set sail with the wind, and heaven will help with some wind. You can go freely without any effort and go as you please with great success.
It looks good. Aunt Wang should be able to get what she wants this time.
The issue of fertility is a big problem, not to mention in ancient times, but even in such an open modern society, it is a big problem.
Shen Ruyi understood Aunt Wang’s difficulties and hardships, especially since she married into a large ancient family and had no children, which would only make things more difficult.
The master who drew the lot said, "Lady donor, if you want to know the specific meaning of the lot, you can go to the back to find Master Jingneng to interpret it."
Aunt Wang quickly picked up Changle, stood up, and made way for the people behind her.
He said to the team behind him, "I'm sorry to waste your time."
"It's okay, I understand. Everyone comes here to ask for something. Congratulations!"
A lady in the queue at the back said this in a sympathetic manner. Apparently she had also heard that the lady in front had asked for a very good fortune.
Who doesn’t want to get the best fortune? I hope I can get what I want.
Others also said, "It's okay, it's okay."
Then the nanny shook the lots. Shen Ruyi looked at the lot that fell on the ground, picked it up, and took a look. It was an upper-middle lot, not bad.
The fortune says: There is something suspicious in your mind, and your previous plans have not been realized. Fortunately, you meet a wise person who guides you, and all your worries will disappear.
"Mammy, the fortune is good. Let's go and ask the master to interpret it."
A few people walked back a few steps and came to Master Jingneng. There were two people in front of him.
The person who interpreted the fortune first obviously had a good fortune. He listened to the master's words and nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face.
I couldn't hide my joy.
The lady standing in line behind her was obviously not very satisfied with the signature, and she couldn't hide her sad expression.
Soon, Shen Ruyi confirmed her guess. When it was the old lady's turn, she was indeed not that good.
After the master finished speaking, the old lady left as if she had lost her parents. The feeling of loss spread far and wide.
Changle said, "Aunt, grandma was unhappy just now."
"Our Changle is so smart." What a sensitive child.
Shen Ruyi handed over Aunt Wang's signature and took Changle.
"Auntie Wang, you go and interpret the fortune. We'll wait here." As he said this, he took a few steps back.
"Okay." What a smart child.
