Wishing You Eternal Happiness - Chapter 59
The ritual of the meditation of longevity will last for seven days, and after the seventh day of consummation, the memorial tablet will be offered to the monastery to receive permanent incense.
Mrs. Pei, two daughters-in-law, and Pei Quan will stay tonight and continue to observe the law for the old man. They will keep the law for three days. Those of the grandchildren will return home in the evening and come back tomorrow.
Pei Youan and Jiafu returned together, but he still had something to do at the moment, no one came out inside, Jiafu, accompanied by the girl-in-law and the Zhike monk, stood beside the stele pavilion at the mountain gate and waited. After waiting for a while, I saw Pei Xiuzhi and Zhou Jiao’e come out first.
The feeling of quarreling between the two at noon is completely different. At this moment, Pei Xiuzhi was behind Zhou Jiao’e, and there was no trace of anger.
The men of the Pei family are all born with talents. Pei Xiuzhi used to have a light and high spirited spirit before, but at this moment, the spirit on his body has disappeared, like a **** that has been defeated in a fight, from the inside out, the whole person shows a trace of malaise and dejection. However, Zhou Jiao’e was the opposite of him, but it was only one afternoon, her face filled with spring, her arrogant toes, followed by Niang Niang, Brother Quan, and seven or eight girls, the group huffed out and saw Jia Fu standing there. In front of the stele pavilion, the girls called her “grandma” one after another, Zhou Jiao’e stopped, turned her head, and tugged at Jiafu, showing a half-smile and half-unsmiling, and she also called “Sister-in-law” “, then glanced at the husband beside him, punched his back, and said softly: “Xiuzhi, I am almost exhausted. There is still some way to go down, and I can’t walk for half a step.”
Ci’en Temple is located on the mountain, but the location is not high. From the gate to the foot of the mountain, there is a mountain step of about several hundred levels.
The girl next to her seemed to hold back her smile.
Pei Xiuzhi’s face was flushed, and some did not dare to look at Jiafu, so he was ashamed, and called the servants to bring the soft sedan over and send the mistress down the mountain.
The sedan chair was quickly lifted. Zhou Jiao’e raised her chin and came to the sedan chair. The next person lifted the sedan chair curtain and asked her to go up, but she did not move, let alone the girl beside her who stretched out her supporting hand, and only looked at her with both eyes. With Pei Xiuzhi.
Pei Xiuzhi followed, and barely stretched out his hand to help.
With a smug expression on her face, Zhou Jiao’e glanced at Jiafu again, and then she held her husband’s hand and bent down into the sedan chair. When Brother Quan saw it, he yelled to sit in the sedan chair, and there was no sound in the sedan chair. Pei Xiuzhi was helpless, and was about to order people to lift the sedan chair over again. Zhou Jiao’e had lifted the sedan chair and said with a smile: “The child is growing up, and it is different from the weak female stream like me. It is only necessary to walk around. Good. If he really can’t walk anymore, I will come down and let Brother Quan sit down!” He said that he was going to step down.
Pei Xiuzhi hurriedly stopped, let the bearer carry it down, and then turned around and ordered the nurse to hold the whole brother down. Brother Quan refused to follow him, was forcibly picked up by the nurse, covered his mouth, and followed the sedan chair in front of him down the mountain steps. Pei Xiuzhi took care of the sedan chair and left in a hurry.
Gaffer watched the crowd disappear, turned back, and saw Pei Youan’s figure gradually appearing, hurriedly greeted him.
Pei Youan saw her, speeded up his pace, and soon approached, saying: “Wait, right? I just arranged tomorrow’s affairs with my uncle, and I came out late.”
Gaffer shook his head: “It’s only a while. I’m not in a hurry.”
Pei Youan thanked the monk and led Jiafu, and the two of them stepped down the mountain steps to the foot of the mountain. Mother Liu and Sandalwood followed with several other girls. After walking down for a while, when he encountered a slightly raised mountain step, Pei Youan stopped for a while, and reached out his hand towards her. Jia Fu’s two slender fingers gently pulled his sleeves, and he backhanded. , Took her hand, led her across the mountain steps, and stood steadily.
“Be careful.”
He whispered, then lightly relaxed his hand.
One of Gaffer’s soft fingers, but still hooked his fingers, reluctantly. The sleeves of the two of them drooped, and the hooked fingers were hidden behind them. From the back, they couldn’t see it clearly, only they were close together.
Pei Youan tilted his head slightly, glanced at the girl-in-law not far behind him, turned his head, as if hesitated a little, after all, he did not withdraw his hand and let her continue to hook.
Gaffer quietly, little by little, clasped his finger tightly, holding on to it.
Pei Youan’s gaze was looking ahead, his expression was as usual, but a smile that seemed like nothing was slowly reflected in the bottom of his eyes, and her hand was hooked like this all the time, completing this section of mountain steps.
Seeing that the uncle and grandma were coming, the coachman hurriedly drove the carriage closer. After stopping, he took the foot pad and put it down. Jiafu stepped on it, and Pei Youan helped her in, and then he sat in. The next man sat in and picked it up. Another carriage headed towards the city.
The golden afterglow of the setting sun filled the entire field, and in the distance there were figures of farmers driving home with plows, cattle, and hoe. The curtain on the side of the carriage was rolled up, and a ray of evening light penetrated through the car window and shone on Pei Youan.
He motioned for Gaffer to lean on his shoulder to rest up his mind, holding a volume of scrolls, lowered his eyebrows, and read the book.
Gaffer Yiyan leaned her body on his shoulders and arms, closed her eyes, but her mind was full of words about his life experience that she had heard during the day.
Carrying such a background is undoubtedly a shame and even a deep pain for once noble as him. Presumably even himself, this is also a secret. Naturally, Gaffer would not rashly tell him what he had heard this day.
She wanted to comfort him, to let him know her heart for him, but she didn’t know how to speak.
She quietly opened her eyes and peeked at him.
He was concentrating on the scroll in his hand, the evening light dyed his slightly drooping eyelashes, and the tip of his eyelashes seemed to be stained with a layer of fine gold powder, and she couldn’t help but want to touch it.
“What’s the matter with you? Something on your mind?”
The eyelashes moved suddenly, and Pei Youan turned his face.
Gaffer shook his head.
Pei Youan took the corner of the book and patted his forehead, and said in a slightly guilty tone: “Is it angry that I came up and just read the book, didn’t you? I forgot. Blame me for not being good.”
He put down the book and stretched out his hand to her, Jia Fu immediately climbed onto his lap, he held Jia Fu, rolled the curtain of the side window higher, looked out the field outside the window, and said, “It’s been a while since you married me. , I’m busy every day, I leave you alone, I’ve never taken you out to play, you must be very bored. After some time, the weather will be slightly cooler, I will take you to Yuquan Mountain in the southeast of the city. I remember that I went to climb when I was young, and the scenery is good, and I haven’t been there for many years.”
“Okay, okay.” Gaffer nodded as if pounding garlic.
Pei Youan glanced at her, smiled, touched her head, and said softly: “If you’re tired, let me squint for a while. If I don’t read, I will hold you.”
With a hum, Jia Fu hugged his waist, pressed her face to his chest, and slowly closed her eyes.
The carriage was swaying, Jiafu curled up in his arms, unknowingly, slept over, and did not know how long he slept, in a daze, he was gently slapped awake, opened his eyes, and realized that it was already here.
Pei Youan helped her get out of the carriage, and the two of them went in. The concierge quickly greeted her and said, “Uncle, Bai Heguan Chihan’s true daughter’s crown sent people, saying that her brother had taken the medicine the uncle prescribed last time, and he is in good condition. Quite a few, but in these days, my appetite has deteriorated again for some unknown reason. I asked Madam Hu to see it the day before, but it didn’t work. I asked the uncle when I was free, and I hope to take the time to do some tricks.”
As he said, he presented another roll of things wrapped in the Jinyuan Sutra of Huiwen.
“The woman Guanzi also sent this volume of sutra, saying it was a handwritten copy of the sutra for the old man Mingshou.”
Pei Youan took it, opened the scripture, opened his eyes for a few times, closed it, took Jiafu back to the room, and changed the casual clothes that he went out.
Gaffer was a little drowsy in his sleep, but now he woke up early, knowing that he was ready to go out. Seeing him looking at him, suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, he took the initiative: “It’s important to see a doctor. Go ahead.” Just don’t tire yourself, remember to come back early to rest.”
Pei Youan asked her: “Are you still tired?”
Gaffer was slightly at a loss and shook his head.
Pei Youan slowly said: “If you are not tired, go with me? It is good to have a companion on the road.”
Gaffer was taken aback for a moment, before reacting, she smiled like a flower and nodded and said: “Okay, then I will accompany my cousin…”
Pei Youan has already gone out and said, “You change your clothes and come out, I’ll pack up things.”
…
When it was dark, the carriage stopped in front of the gate of Baiheguan. Pei Youan called for a notification. Soon, he quickly stepped out to serve the little Taoist Chi Hanzhen, and led the two in. When they walked to the Taisu Pavilion, the little Taoist flew inside. After a while, only the little Taoist was hit by her hands. Chi Hanzhen appeared from the door and greeted him with a bright corner lamp. He seemed to be about to call Pei Youan. He suddenly noticed Jiafu next to him, and he couldn’t help but stop slightly.
Pei Youan took Jiafu up and smiled and said, “Today I went to Ci’en Temple with my wife, and came back together. I just learned Chi Zhenren’s message, and I came here with Chi Zhenren. I also received the handwritten scripts of Chi Zhenren. I’ll transfer it to my grandmother every day, and I’ll take care of it.”
Chi Hanzhen’s gaze finally recovered from the smiling Jiafu, and he calmed down, saying: “Master Pei, why be polite, Master Pei is a life-saver to my brother, and I also accidentally learned about the celebration of the birthday of Lord Weng. , Thinking of the monk, and did not want to report, only then copied a volume of Taoism. The adults and the wife please come in.” She said, turned around and led the two inside, and called Xiaodaogu Fengcha, Pei Youandao Go to the doctor first.
Chi Hanzhen led him in.
The child’s complexion was much better than when Gaffer saw it last time. Pei Youan looked at the child carefully and asked for the prescription from the imperial physician last time. He took a look and said that the problem was not big, it should be the spleen and stomach disorders caused by the previous prescription. It should get better in a few days. The imperial physician’s prescription is consistent with what he wants, so Chi Hanzhen should follow the imperial physician’s prescription to grasp the medicine.
Chi Hanzhen was slightly ashamed, thanked him in a low voice, and apologized for his abrupt disturbance today.
Pei Youan said: “Why don’t you care about it? Although you are now a monk, I still treat you like a younger sister. Next time if you have something, no matter what, if you feel powerless, just come and find me. I’m not here, look for me. People can do it too. She will definitely help.”
Jiafu was slightly startled, seeing Pei Youan looking at him, and immediately reacted, and immediately stood beside him, nodded and smiled: “What my husband said is what I think. Jurchen is a white crane in the cloud, with high moral integrity, I have always respected you, please do not stick to the world.”
Chi Hanzhen was determined to look at Jiafu, but he was speechless for a while, Pei Youan took the things, took Jiafu, and left.
Chi Hanzhen sent the two out. Watching his two backs gradually disappeared, his eyes were empty, he turned and slowly returned to the clean room of his practice, closed the door, and couldn’t help it anymore. He covered his face with his hands, and his tears flowed from his fingers. Never go down.
The cuffs of the apricot zodiac shirt slipped from her wrist, and there were several hideous scars on the snow-white wrist. The old wounds have not healed, and the new ones have been added.
This is a wonderful flower in the world, and it fell into the mud all at once.
He is like a bright moon, Zhilie Qiushuang, there is no second person in the world, like him, a gentleman like jade. She looked down on the woman he married, but tonight, in front of the woman standing next to him, she deeply felt the humbleness hidden in her body for the first time, and even in the end, she had no self-confidence.
He and she are made in heaven, and they are unparalleled. He knew that he didn’t have any affection for himself, but why couldn’t even the pain of cutting his body and skin be driven away from the devil in his heart?
…
Gaffer and Pei Youan went home, it was late at night, after they took a shower and changed their clothes, they went to bed.
Pei Youan covered her with a quilt and kissed her: “You’re a snooze cat, and your eyes will turn dark if you don’t get enough sleep. Others think what’s wrong with you. I have to get up early tomorrow morning. Let’s go to bed.” I closed my eyes.
Gaffer stared at his face, but didn’t want to sleep at all. I thought about the daytime for a while, and I just thought about the scene for a while. I just felt that there were countless things to say in my heart. I couldn’t help it anymore. I stretched out a pair of soft arms towards him, hugged his neck, and pressed his lips to the past. , Attached to his ear, whispered: “Big cousin, in the future, if you have something sad and sad, don’t be bored by yourself. Tell Fuer that Fuer will love you and cherish you. of.”
