Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

  Chapter 340 Let people go down the mountain

  So now I am picking them one by one.

  At the same time, he listened to Qian's gossip.

   "That's why I heard about it."

   "In Buddhist temples like Leiguang Temple, some children without father and mother are taken in all the year round, but not all children are willing to become monks, and some children grow up and are assigned to nearby villages to marry and have children."

   "And the court has stipulated that a group of people will be released from the temple every five years."

   "This year happened to be the day when I met the temple and let people go down the mountain."

   "In previous years, some people would go down the mountain, even children, trying to be adopted. As long as they are willing to adopt, they will go to the county government to apply for household registration, and then they don't need to go back to the temple."

   "Most children still don't want to be monks. After all, monks have to be vegetarians, and they can't get married."

   That is to say, unless you really have a relationship with the Buddha, or are willing to become a monk, the temple is actually a large shelter, or a formal shelter promulgated by the imperial court.

  Ye Muyu suddenly realized, but she agrees with those children's choices, even the temple's practice. This respects human rights, and you can't just go to the temple to become a monk in order to live.

  Of course, those children who are taken into the temple must also need to work since they were young, and the temple can afford the financial conditions to support these children, so this happens.

  No matter how you say it, it's a good thing.

   Ye Muyu listened to this matter as gossip, but didn't take it to heart.

  Picking a basket of peaches and about three taels of Sanjiao, Ye Muyu took the children home.

  Back home, Mrs. Hu took the peaches to wash.

  Chu Jin followed Ye Muyu's footsteps and entered the kitchen.

   "Mom, I'm going to do my homework first. I don't have much homework today. I want to draw another Zhuge lock later."

  Ye Muyu put the handkerchief containing the sansho pepper on the cutting board, remembering what Mr. Lin said, he was really not at ease.

   Seeing that no one else was there, she knelt down and looked at Chu Jin at the same level, her eyes were full of tenderness: "Xiao Jin, mother has something to ask you."

   "Mother, you can ask." Chu Jin looked at her puzzled, but didn't think much about it.

  Ye Muyu said: "Do you have any friends?"

   "Friends?" Chu Jin thought about it, and it seemed that he really didn't have any, so he shook his head: "Mother, no, I have to study every day, or I just play at home."

   "Aren't there any in the school?"

   "In the school?" Chu Jin shook his head, "I can't talk to them."

   "Huh? Why?" Ye Muyu knew that the key was coming, and looked straight into his eyes, afraid of what the child was thinking, but she ignored it.

  Chu Jin subconsciously showed a look of unhappiness on his immature face, and even frowned.

   "I can't talk to them about going together." Chu Jin said.

  Ye Muyu's heart skipped a beat when he heard it. This is exactly the same as Master Lin said. If Tang Bao has a strong personality and is spoiled, there must be other sensible children in the village school.

   What's more, Xiao Jin is only five years old, how can he lose his childishness, not even have a friend, and don't socialize with others, this is a precursor to mental illness.

   "How come, mother remembers, you used to play with the boys in the village, Hu Zi, Da Zhuang, do you have no time to play with them?"

   "No, mother, I don't want to play with them."

   "They always like to say bad things, and I heard them say bad things about their mother." Chu Jin was a little angry when he said this.
