Chapter 64 Master Xuyi
squeak —
The opposite door was suddenly pushed open.
The one who opened the door was a monk in robes, and behind him was an old monk with white hair in cassocks.
"It's a monk." Xiao Li said with a smile.
Qiu Sheng hurriedly covered his younger brother's mouth when he heard the words, frowned and coaxed in a low voice: "Don't say this in front of others."
Xiao Li nodded while pulling his elder brother's hand, "Wo..."
Wang Zhuangzhi and Liu Zhihua, who were busy feeding the cows, saw someone coming out from the opposite side, and hurriedly got up, clapped their hands and clothes, and hurriedly led the children over.
come closer,
Liu Zhihua hurriedly pulled the children to greet them: "Hello, two masters."
"Master, may I ask if this courtyard is for sale?" Wang Zhuangzhi clasped his fists and asked with a smile.
The monk wearing a monk's robe nodded gently, clasped his hands together and asked, "Almsgiver, this place is for sale, and the price of seven hundred taels of silver is not negotiable."
Wang Zhuangzhi and Liu Zhihua were stunned when they heard about seven hundred taels. Some yards nearby were only two hundred taels, and the yards in the town were only three or four hundred taels. Such a place is so precious!
Qiu Sheng was also taken aback, how much silver is seven hundred taels?
I still remember that half a month ago he was still worried about the tuition fee of two taels of silver, and even almost gave up his studies. One can imagine the concept of seven hundred taels.
"Then, let's take a look again, sorry to bother you two." Liu Zhihua showed embarrassment, mainly because they couldn't afford it.
"Donor wait."
The elder in cassock spoke kindly, and the monk beside him froze for a moment.
Liu Zhihua and Wang Zhuangzhi looked back in confusion, only to see the elder smiled charitably, clasped his hands together and asked, "You two benefactors, but I don't remember the old monk."
The couple were taken aback for a moment, and then stared carefully. Suddenly, a figure appeared in the back of Liu Zhihua's mind. She stretched out her finger and said excitedly, "Hey, you are the eminent monk who passed by begging for water back then."
Wang Zhuangzhi clapped his hands and said excitedly when he heard the words, "Master, it's you!"
"It's the old monk, the old monk's legal name is false, the two of you can follow me in first."
Master Xu Yi had a kind face and raised his hand to signal his disciples to open the door.
The monk hurriedly pushed the door open, Liu Zhihua Wang Zhuangzhi was a little flattered, and the two quickly accepted the invitation of the master: "Thank you, Master Xuyi."
The two of them stepped in carefully with a few children.
"It's fate to meet each other, so it's okay to see." Master Xu Yi laughed.
"Thank you, Master."
The layout of the yard is a second-entry courtyard. The first entrance is an elegant front yard with two houses on the side. The layout is very good. Through the exquisite patterned wooden lattice windows, it is not difficult to find that the inside is more refined.
The hall greeted by the second entrance is very spacious, the decoration is very grand, and the furniture are all made of golden nanmu wood. There are four rooms in the second entrance yard, and there are independent small kitchens and water wells on the side.
Further back, bypassing a beautifully carved painting wall, came to the backyard.
The sun is shining brightly, the grass and trees are bright, the road under the feet is very flat, the yard is very neatly trimmed, and there is an elegant pavilion not far away. Next to the pavilion is a pond full of lotus flowers. The two sides of the pond are connected by wooden bridges, near the corner There is also a lush fruit tree, and the few red fruits left on it are very attractive at the moment.
Wang Zhuangzhi was already dazzled, and the palms of the hands he held were sweaty. Liu Zhihua stammered and said, "Hey, I have grown so big. I have never seen such a rich courtyard."
"It's so beautiful!" Erya had never seen such a beautiful yard before, and looked around happily.
Xiao Li was attracted by the red fruit on the lush fruit tree at a glance, pulled his elder brother and whispered: "Brother, I really want to eat that red fruit."
Qiu Sheng didn't hear the younger brother's voice at all, because his eyes were full of astonishment, and his heart was full of amazement.
Jiaojiao was staring at the halfway up the mountain behind. From the yard, she could see the halfway up the back mountain. The aura over there was abundant with the naked eye, and she looked at it greedily.
Bai Miaomiao also looked at it, and said with emotion: "When will I be able to build a nest in that bamboo forest?"
Jiaojiao touched it with a smile, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, when I plant more spiritual grass in my space, I will build a spiritual forest for Miaomiao to play in."
Bai Miaomiao rolled happily: "Jiaojiao is still good to me."
"Is this a place you want?"
Master Xuyi smiled and asked the Wang family and his wife.
Liu Zhihua came back to her senses and smiled embarrassedly, and said: "Master, you are joking, who doesn't like such a luxurious house, but we don't have enough money, I'm afraid we won't be blessed to live in it. Thank you, Master, for bringing us in to watch."
Master Xuyi just smiled, and then asked: "Where is the girl from back then?"
"exist."
Liu Zhihua smiled and picked up Jiaojiao and walked to the master, pulled Jiaojiao and said: "Come and say hello to the master, if Master Xuyi hadn't passed by the house back then, your life would have been lost."
Jiaojiao looked at the old man with white eyebrows and beard, and felt that his eyes were very warm and benevolent, and she shouted in a curious waxy voice: "Hello, Master~"
Xu nodded with a smile, raised his hand and touched the center of Jiaojiao's eyebrows, then pinched his fingers and made calculations and sighed: "It's hard to break the sky, everything is determined."
The Wang family couldn't understand, and asked in a daze: "Master, what does this mean? Good or bad."
"No need to explore, since we meet, we are destined. The feng shui here is very good. You can consider it. I will come here to chant sutras in two days. When it's time, you can come directly with your money."
After speaking, Master Xuyi said "Amitabha" and left.
Liu Zhihua and Wang Zhuangzhi were at a loss, looking at the back of the master leaving, hesitant to speak, they also wanted to buy it, but how could they earn so much money in two days.
The monks clasped their hands together and asked: "Several benefactors, this place is about to be locked up, please follow me out."
"Oh, okay, thank you little master."
Erya Xiaoshen was reluctant to leave, and Qiu Sheng dragged them out one by one. In fact, he also liked this courtyard, but considering the price, he felt hopeless.
Farewell to the monks, the Wang family walked to the place where the ox cart was parked opposite.
Liu Zhihua hugged Jiaojiao and sighed: "The head of the house, the master has his reasons for saying those words, it is very similar to the scene where we left Jiaojiao before."
Wang Zhuangzhi showed emotion, nodded and said: "The meaning of the master's words is to let us buy the yard. In fact, such a beautiful big yard can be bought for 700 taels, but now we don't have enough money, and we don't have any money around us. A person who can borrow taels of silver."
"Who is so brave to lend you so much money, and you have to pay it back in the future. The big yard is actually too big for us to live in. It would be nice if it was smaller and the price was cheaper." Liu Zhihua sighed.
Jiaojiao heard her father and mother's conversation, propped her chin on the back of her hand and said softly: "Father and mother, the master said that in two days, Jiaojiao will go up the mountain tomorrow to find herbs to earn money, and she will definitely earn enough."
