Last night's konjac was so refreshing!
Until midnight, I was still so uncomfortable that I didn't dare to lie down and sleep.
When I finally fell asleep, it should be two or three o'clock, right?
I didn't even get up for breakfast in the morning, just wanted to get a good night's sleep and catch up on my sleepiness.
However, early in the morning, there was a constant chattering at the door, and I don't know which wicked ghost came here to disturb my sweet dreams.
Five minutes, ten minutes, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, the voice outside the door was like a spell, washing in my mind and never going away.
I have had hypoglycemia since I was a child, especially when I was hungry, sleepy, or did not wake up. The most obvious thing at this time was the kind of temper that I couldn't restrain myself.
I turned over and got up, and walked out the door. I have to take a good look at who is reading this non-stop!
"Do you have a lot of money?" Grandma said to the side.
The person next to me said: "Twenty yuan, it will definitely bless your family." Since the view was blocked by the corner of the wall, I could only hear a female voice next to me, but I couldn't see the appearance.
Seeing that money was already mentioned, I hurriedly asked, "Grandma, what are you doing?"
Just kidding, you disturb my sleep early in the morning, if you want to earn money from my family, you have to see if I agree first!
Seeing me coming out, grandma smiled and said, "Oh, Ren Tao is up! This master told me to buy this book and take it home, it will keep our family safe."
Stepping out of the gate, I happened to see the person at the corner of the wall.
This person was dressed as a nun. Judging from his appearance, he was about fifty years old. He was clean, wearing a nun hat, nun clothes, and a cloth bag with a gossip embroidered on it.
Gossip? Isn't this something that should be Taoist? When did the nun believe this? Besides, nuns and monks belong to a family, so they should all belong to Buddhism, right?
In my heart, I instantly gave her a bad image, and I am afraid that she will be sent to the small dark room forever!
"What kind of book?" I said to grandma.
Grandma handed me the thin book. The workmanship and paper cost 50 cents, right? Absolutely no more than one piece!
While flipping through the book, I glanced at the contents above, took a sideways glance, and glanced at the nun.
I didn't expect that she was also looking at me, and found that when I looked at her, she completely avoided my gaze.
Hey, this nun is not good enough!
If it were me, even if someone suspected or exposed me, I would stick to it to the end!
"I'm afraid this book is worth less than twenty yuan!" I turned and said to grandma.
"Little benefactor, it is fate to meet today. The value of a book is not measured by paper. We presided over the consecration of the book. If you buy this book, the Guanyin on it will keep your family safe and sound. Isn't that true?" It can be exchanged for twenty yuan."
The old nun was very eloquent, and while talking, she pointed to the Guanyin pattern on the cover, signaling me to pay more attention to Guanyin.
Raise the value of the book to the value of peace in one go, twenty yuan is just a drizzle!
"I don't want the book, and I don't believe in it either. Take it back." I refused directly.
The old nun probably saw that I was difficult to deal with, so she held the book in her hand and shifted her target to my grandma: "Books can not only keep you safe, but also protect other things. From the appearance of the benefactor from a young age, it should be a material for reading." , with the blessing of Guanyin, you will be able to flourish in the future."
Grandma was moved by what she said, so she agreed to buy this book.
Alas, who doesn't want their children and grandchildren to be able to stand out? Although grandma also knows that this is a liar, twenty yuan is really not much, even if it is just to buy peace of mind and ask for a blessing?
"No, reading depends on hard work, no one will bless you, you should take the book back!" I directly refused.
The old nun may also have seen my toughness, and guessed that she could not deal with me with her own words and deeds, so she immediately switched to plan No. 2.
"Since this is the case, I will not persuade you. I have a stick of incense here, which I also asked for from the temple. I have been consecrated. In this way, I will burn a stick of incense for you today and read a few words of blessing. I wish your family People are safe, happy, prosperous!" The old nun took out three incense sticks from her cloth pocket.
"How much money?" I asked directly.
The old nun was silent for a while, presumably estimating the psychological price I could accept, and then said: "Two yuan!"
I turned my head to signal grandma, grandma understoodFinally, he took out two yuan and handed it to the nun.
The nun took the money, put it in her pocket, and took out a lighter. After lighting the incense, she kept chanting some auspicious words in her mouth. About two minutes later, she inserted the incense into the side of our gate, signaling Don't worry about it until the incense is extinguished.
This old nun is really one set, and she won't leave without some money! What a thick skin!
However, two yuan is not much, and it is still acceptable.
Originally, with my temper, I didn't give any points, and I might even close the door directly!
But today she didn't sleep well because of her reading, she was in a bad mood, and her head hurt like hell, so it is the best policy to send her away as soon as possible.
After the nun left, my grandma and I entered the house.
"Ren Tao, why don't you post the calendar that your grandfather brought back yesterday!" Grandma reminded.
On the table in the small hall, I found the wall calendar that my grandfather brought back yesterday. A picture printed on A2 paper was rolled together, and an almanac was wrapped in the middle.
On our side, every household will have an almanac to see the days of the lunar calendar.
Usually, if there is a marriage, house repair, groundbreaking, planting trees and stoves, etc., I will look through the almanac to see an auspicious time.
As for hanging pictures, there are more, most of them are gifts from pig feed sellers, with xx feed or xx company printed in large characters.
However, it will not affect us in the slightest to see the day and calculate the time.
"Grandma, where is the almanac?" I walked to grandma with the hanging painting and almanac.
"Put it on the back of the cabinet, and put it away when your grandfather comes back, lest he can't find it and make trouble."
"Can the rice soup stick to this hanging picture?"
Speaking of hanging pictures, several pictures have been pasted on the outer wall in front of the kitchen door. Although they are all from previous years, they were pasted better before and are not easy to tear off. This tearing may leave many offset marks that cannot be removed.
"You add some rice, crush it and mix it with rice soup to stick together." Grandma gave me an idea.
According to the plan provided by my grandma, I pasted the hanging pictures on the wall outside the kitchen door, next to the two hanging pictures from previous years.
The new wall calendar heralds the beginning of the new year and new expectations.
On the hanging picture, a big monkey smiled happily, and the time below was divided into twelve parts on a monthly basis.
Holidays and special days are all reflected in red fonts.
People can see it at a glance.
I really look forward to the coming of New Year's Eve! This is the first festival of the year!
It's also the day to eat a big meal! In a year, count on these few days! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
