On the first night of going home, Xiang Que, who ate a big bowl of pork stewed sauerkraut, didn't sleep much in the middle of the night, and he didn't sleep much Xiang and the old couple didn't sleep much.
Since Xiang Que left home for 12 years, his parents have asked him how he has lived almost every year.
And Xiang Que's answer was almost the same, because his life was basically the same every day, but he was not impatient at all, he told his parents that after arriving at Zhongnan Mountain, there were four people in the Taoist temple, the master Lao Dao, the uncle and a senior brother.
In the first three or four years, the old Taoist and the senior uncle threw him to the senior brother, from the age of twelve to fifteen years old, he was almost brought up by the senior brother, whether it was chanting scriptures or learning Taoism, he followed the senior brother's ass to learn, the senior brother was very strict with him, if there was any point in the lack of learning, the senior brother would pick a branch from the old locust tree in the view and smoke him, and a year or two later, the branches under the old locust tree were actually pulled away by the senior brother.
Later, there were only three people left in the Taoist temple.
Four years later, the senior brother left the mountain very suddenly, silently.
Xiang Que didn't know where his senior brother went, and Lao Dao and Uncle Shi didn't tell him, so he didn't ask.
Since then, Lao Dao began to be responsible, except for napping and sleeping under the old locust tree, the rest of the day began to teach Xiang Yuan, and after another three years, Lao Dao left him alone, and Uncle Shi took over again.
Until two years ago, the two began to ignore him again, and Xiang Que was alone in the scripture pavilion behind the Sanqing Palace to read the Taoist scriptures alone, until he went down the mountain.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, I've had a good life in the past few years, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, I don't have to do anything, I'm quite stable, except for not being able to go down the mountain."
"Then why did that old man let you go down this time, I remember he said that he wouldn't let you go home until you were twenty-five."
"Who knows what he is talking about a day, not long ago there was a person in the Taoist temple to ask for help, and the old Taoist sent me out, and the time was actually three years ahead of schedule, but whatever, isn't it very good, you can go home early when you go down the mountain early, so you don't have to worry."
"Ah, it's good if you don't endure hardship, we're afraid that you'll be hungry when you're cold in the mountains, there are no men in the Taoist temple, who do what you say will do to cook and wash clothes, we think that you are an apprentice, and if you can't do it, you have to do all this work."
"That's not true, there is a village under the Taoist temple, those villagers are good, serving us to eat and drink, we don't have to worry about these things at all."
"Okay, the child must be tired when he just came back, sleep, sleep, what's the matter, I'll talk about it tomorrow, and when his eldest sister and second sister come back, maybe I have to continue to talk about this, those two girls are like you, they love to worry."
"We're worried?
Just don't you?
I don't know who is talking as soon as he drinks, why hasn't my son come back, he's almost stunned. ” …… Early the next morning, Xiang Que slept for the first time until he woke up naturally, his parents had already gotten up and were busy, one went to buy vegetables and the other cleaned up the house, today's Xiang family must be festive, and it must be more festive than the New Year.
It was almost noon when a car drove in from outside the yard, and the two cars stopped in the yard with their feet in front and back, and Xiang Que looked up and said, "Your eldest sister and second sister are here, they must have come back with their husband and children, you haven't seen your nephew and brother-in-law yet, hurry up and go out to greet you." ” When Xiang Que walked outside, he saw two women in their twenties holding their children and walking briskly towards him with tears in their eyes.
"Hurry up and show my sister, what has become of you kid."
"Oh, why did you come back suddenly, you said it in advance, I asked your brother-in-law to pick you up at the station."
As soon as Xiang Que's eldest sister and second sister met him, it was exactly the same as when they saw their parents yesterday, the two of them pulled him to ask and couldn't stop asking at all, Xiang Que answered the two sisters patiently, and also looked at the man standing beside them.
The eldest brother-in-law is called Liu Yang, thirty years old is not tall and very thick, there is nothing surprising about the ordinary face, he has been an apprentice to the car repair master since he was a child, and he has been studying for seven or eight years, and he is very hard-working.
The second brother-in-law's name is Xu Wei, and he took the civil service exam in a prefecture-level city, and although he doesn't earn much money by working from 9 to 5 every day, he is very stable.
The life of the two families is good, the two men are very honest, among the women who marry outside the village, Xiang Yuping and Xiang Yulian can be regarded as pacesetters who can be admired by others.
The whole family entered the house, and the children of the two sisters' families, one was four years old and the other was two years old, they climbed on the kang to play, and Xiang Que talked to his sister and brother-in-law casually while hugging the two children.
In Taoism, there is a saying in divination and divination, which is called "three do not look".
If you don't look at the monarch, it means that the king of a country and the lord of a country can't show it, the emperor is the true dragon of the Son of Heaven and the luck of a country, which one dares to show the Son of Heaven that he must be looking for death, and he will be counterattacked, and his life will be broken by at least ten or twenty years.
The second one is not to look at it, that is, the person who is about to die does not show it, and the person who has no luck does not show it, which means that the person who is about to die cannot be shown and hanged, because as long as you see it, you have to collect money, and the living person cannot collect money from the dead.
The third one who doesn't look at it means that the people closest to him can't see it, for example, if he is missing, he can't show it to his parents, he can't show it to his two sisters, and he can't show it to himself.
If you force divination, it will disturb the other party's numerology and cause big trouble.
He has seen the faces of his two brothers-in-law, they are all ordinary people's faces, and they belong to the kind of people who live peacefully until death without major disasters or serious illnesses, but his two nephews have not seen it yet.
The child is still young, the body has not grown up in all aspects, the face has not been formed, and the general hexagram master will not show the child fortune telling, because it is not accurate, but it is an ordinary physiognomy teacher, but he dares to show it.
Someone asked, Xiang Que's two nephews are also his closest relatives, and they are deeply related, how can they show it?
Actually, otherwise, the two nephews are people with foreign surnames, although they are related by blood, they are already members of the Liu family and the Xu family, so there is no problem with them.
Xiang Que held the two children in his arms, looked at their faces quietly, and then touched his bones again, and Xiang Que's original heart was put down after reading it.
In his life, he is destined not to stay at home, he has to wander away, and he can come back once in three or two years at most, and Xiang Que is worried that after he leaves, his sister and parents will have to fall into the hands of these two nephews if they are left unattended.
Therefore, Xiang Que didn't want anything wrong with his nephew.
