Chapter 634

Mrs. Xu smiled and complained to Mrs. Huang: "How can we say that girls are caring! Those brats in our family only know how to write some nonsense "Renrenjijishi" to fool us To the old man!"

Mrs. Huang couldn't help laughing: "This is the elegance of the literati. We women in the inner house don't understand these things, so we naturally find it boring."

Mrs. Xu laughed and said: "What kind of literati are they! They are just getting started.

"The more this kind of bottle is full of less than half of the bottle, the more people like to show off.

"For example, Yinyin's father, and your old master Huang, don't know how low-key they are."

Mrs. Huang retorted: "People don't frivolously waste young people! It's a good thing for young people to be energetic!"

The two talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Chu Yin accidentally found a bowl of Buddha beans beside Mrs. Xu's kang screen, and couldn't help but wonder: "Auntie, when did you start picking Buddha beans?"

"I didn't choose it for myself," Mrs. Xu sighed, "Princess Dangyang asked me to help a few years ago.

"She said that she often dreamed of her eldest son who died young, and wanted to accumulate blessings for him, so she asked for beans from the temple, and asked someone to help pick them up, and prepared to give them out during the Buddha Bathing Festival.

"I also said that I need to ask young and virtuous people to help, didn't I just think of me?
"It's just that I'm old and mentally weak, so I've only picked half of them now.

"Fortunately, the Buddha Bathing Festival is still far away, and there is still time."

Chu Yin and Huang Qingyu looked at each other, and there was a flash of worry in their eyes.

Huang Qingyu pretended to be curious and asked: "Do you know who Princess Dangyang invited?"

"It seems that they are all the old Feng Jun of the honorable family," Mrs. Xu said with a smile, "How can young people be patient to do these things!"

She sighed, and said: "Princess Dangyang has a hard life, and she never asks for help. Occasionally, if she asks for something, it's easy to do, and no one refuses.

"She has been alone for so many years, if she didn't rely on chanting scriptures and making offerings to Buddha every day, how would she survive this day!
"She also persuaded me to believe in Buddhism together, saying that we should not practice in this life but in the next life while we are alive.

"I think, if you can't even grasp this life, where can you look at the illusory afterlife?

"Don't they all say that people have to drink Mengpo soup when they go to the underworld, and they have forgotten everything in their previous lives? How do you know if there is any good fortune?
"However, I still agree with Buddhism's advice to people to do good.

"Originally she wanted to buy a white jade Guanyin for me, but she was very disappointed when I declined, but this can't be helped, I have no destiny with the Buddha!"

Everyone laughed lightly.

"However," Mrs. Xu changed the topic, "When you get old, you always need to find something to think about. Many old ladies of Feng Jun believe in Buddhism.

"Maybe it's because they have a common belief. I heard that Princess Dangyang often gets together with several old lords.

"For example, they participated in Buddhist events together, published Buddhist scriptures, and so on. I heard that they even went to Daxiangguo Temple to burn incense on the first day of the new year."

She shook her head and sighed: "If you want me to say, it's almost crazy!"

Mrs. Huang said: "Actually, everyone has their own ambitions. Whether it's about ghosts or gods, whether it's past or present, it's all illusory.

"But there are many things that cannot be explained by common sense.

"The so-called 'believe it or not believe it or not'!

"For example, our family doesn't believe in monks and Taoism, but our master often said that there must be a reason why Buddhism and Taoism have survived for thousands of years.

"You can not believe it, but you can't slander it, just keep it at a respectful distance."
