No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 979: Reduced Version of the Estrangement Scheme
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang hurried into the hall. Just as they were about to pay their respects, they were stopped by the old lady, who motioned for them to worship Buddha first.
Even if Ou Mengmeng is not superstitious, she still has to observe some old rituals. You said you came to worship Buddha, so what is it to go past the Buddha statue and worship her? Aren't you afraid that the old lady will blame the Buddha for the blame.
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang went to worship the Buddha first, but their carelessness was obvious to the naked eye. Ou Mengmeng quickly put her hands together, bowed slightly to the Buddha statue, and said silently in her heart, "They are them, and have nothing to do with me. I have worshipped sincerely."
The host was moved. Who was the most powerful in Dongwu at this time? Of course it was Sun Quan. If the old lady of Sun Quan's family converted, then Ganlu Temple would become the number one Buddhist temple in Jiangdong. So he flattered him even more.
Ou Mengmeng thought Sun Quan was a strong man. Even if he didn't tell her, she was amazed when she saw Zhuge Liang coming with Liu Bei. This time, Zhuge Liang came with Liu Bei, and he had some ulterior motives. So, he helped Liu Bei dress up. But in the original novel, who accompanied Wu Guotai on the blind date? Qiao Guolao! This time, Ou Mengmeng was accompanied by Sun Quan and Zhou Yu. Now there is another Zhuge Liang.
Ou Mengmeng is now like a child with his hands spread out in his heart, with a face full of, what can I do. Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, and Zhuge Liang are all famous handsome men, and they are still young. Zhou Yu is only 34 years old, Zhuge Liang is 28, and Sun Quan is 27. Next to the 48-year-old Liu Bei, Liu Bei is like a grandfather!
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang never thought that Ou Mengmeng was thinking about their looks. They could only follow the old lady to worship every Buddha statue in the temple and listen to the old monk's stories. But they were anxious, thinking that this was Zhou Yu's true level, and they had won.
But there is no point in being anxious. Ou Mengmeng likes to go out and play. She holds her daughter's hand and listens to the master's lectures carefully. This kind of opportunity also happened in modern times. She once went to visit an ancient temple with a high-level group. The temple still retains the tradition of growing vegetables by itself and refuses donations. The abbot personally received her and talked about the persistence of their temple. Ou Mengmeng was very inspired. This time, the old abbot may not be so secular. When he speaks, he is very Zen.
Four talented people, each of whom has made a place in history, followed silently behind. They could tell from the old lady's expression that she really understood and was genuinely interested. The questions she asked were all related to Buddhism. There were a few questions that stumped the host. The old lady did not become complacent, but immediately criticized herself, apologized proactively and made her attitude clear.
Although Sun Quan and Liu Bei didn't understand, they listened quietly. Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang were both rare wise men of the time, and Zhuge Liang had faith. He almost entered a state of meditation while listening to the conversation between the old lady and the host, and felt as if he had seen the blue sky through the clouds.
Sun Quan and Zhou Yu didn't listen. They were observing the expressions of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, and they thought that this wave was stable. How could they know that what Ou Mengmeng asked was actually the Buddhist doctrine after Buddhism was spread to China and localized. And this doctrine is actually a blend of many Taoist doctrines. After more than a thousand years of evolution, the explanations of generations of smart people reached Ou Mengmeng's ears, and she thought it was Buddhist. In fact, what she said was really far from the Indian Buddhism at that time. However, what she said immediately hit Zhuge Liang's heart.
Finally, they found a quiet Zen room, and everyone sat down as host and guest. The incense burner in the Zen room had been lit early, and the room was already hot.
Ou Mengmeng went to change her clothes and returned to the meditation room, where she found the four of them sitting opposite each other in twos, none of them saying a word.
"What's the matter? When you come out to worship Buddha, don't think about those military and national affairs, just relax." Ou Mengmeng signaled the waitress to serve tea. At this time, there is also a saying that tea can clear the mind and brighten the eyes. However, at this time, tea is Taoism, which is a very elegant thing. What you drink is not tea, but Taoism. "The Queen Mother just talked with the master, and Liang was deeply moved. May I ask the Queen Mother, which scripture did you understand from? Can I take a look?" Zhuge Liang glanced at Sun Quan and asked with a bow. It would be useful to curry favor with this elder at this time.
"How could I read any books? I just learned a few words from my sister. I am not blind. You mentioned scriptures, which I understand even less. I just listened to what the master said and felt something in my heart." Ou Mengmeng smiled and waved her hand.
Look at Zhuge Liang, he is really a handsome young man. He is from Shandong. The book describes him as eight feet tall, with a face like a jade crown, wearing a crane cloak, a turban on his head, and holding a feather fan. When he stands out, he is an image of an immortal with extraordinary temperament. He is much more handsome than in the TV series.
Of course, she still felt that she was a little inferior to her future son-in-law. But her future son-in-law was a full-time TV king, a guy who had won the Best Actor award, and his face had been verified by more than a billion people in China. There was no comparison!
However, after admiring the man's beauty, Ou Mengmeng looked at the feather fan, then looked at the north wind outside, and couldn't help but said, "Mr. Zhuge, aren't you cold?"
Zhuge Liang was startled. What cold is that? Zhou Yu, who was standing opposite him, burst out laughing. Zhuge Liang then realized that the old lady was talking about the feather fan in his hand. But who was Zhuge Liang? He quickly held the fan and bowed to the Queen Mother.
"Please forgive me, Queen Mother. I don't know why I always wanted to hold something in my hands since I was a child. Later, I got used to it." Zhuge Liang had to be said to be a strong man. Looking at the feather fan in his hand, he did not hide the fact and explained it frankly.
"Military advisor, what you said is absolutely right. My little Wu was the same. He only liked to use one pillow when he was little. I said I would help him change it, but he refused. Later, my sister was afraid that he would get sick, so she ordered people to throw it away and replaced it with an identical one. As a result, Xiao Wu cried for a long time." Ou Mengmeng nodded and looked at Sun Quan. "It was also thanks to Zhongmou that he took Xiao Wu to catch rabbits, and he was finally coaxed into good health."
"Mother, how old is my fifth brother now? If you bring up your childhood memories, I'm afraid he will feel wronged again if he hears them." Sun Quan had long forgotten about it, but when he thought about it, the fifth brother had always been gentle, kind, and nostalgic. He was one of the few honest brothers.
"But I suddenly remembered that I was rude just now, military advisor." Ou Mengmeng said to Zhuge Liang with an apologetic smile.
"No, no, I am ashamed." Zhuge Liang did not expect the old lady to apologize to him, so he quickly returned the greeting.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't be polite, the old lady likes good-looking young men." Ou Mengmeng smiled and waved her hand, looking Zhuge Liang up and down, "Is the military advisor ready to marry?" (End of this chapter)
