Chapter 571 Asking for Buddhist Advice
Chapter 571 Asking for Buddhist Advice
Two days later, Madam Xu came to the Lu family as expected.
In the main hall of the Lu family, He Feng smiled and entertained Madam Xu and Madam Yuan who came with her.
Seeing this, Gu Yunxi went into the house and made a pot of honeysuckle tea made with the space spiritual spring water, brought it out and refilled their cups.
"Master's wife, Madam Xu, please have some tea."
Mrs. Yuan nodded with a smile and took a sip politely. The next second, her eyes almost popped out.
"Hmm, Yunxi, is this honeysuckle tea? Why does it taste so good? It seems to be different from what we brew at home."
Mrs. Yuan felt that this tea was like the honeysuckle that Gu Yunxi had given to their family before. However, she had drunk honeysuckle tea at home before, but it was never as delicious as this one!
Mrs. Xu also took a small sip and looked surprised. This tea seemed to taste really good.
Gu Yunxi smiled and said, "Master's wife, this is the honeysuckle that our family planted before. It is the same as the one I gave you."
Madam Yuan groaned and said, "Your tea, I have to say, it feels completely different from the one I brew at home."
"Is it because my servants' tea-making skills are not good enough? Or is it because of the well water?"
Gu Yunxi smiled and said, "Maybe it's because the well water at home is sweet, the tea brewed from it tastes especially good."
Madam Xu couldn't help but ask, "Girl Yunxi, do you grow this tea yourself?"
"Yes, Yaqin, you may not know that the Lu family has a medicinal field in their hometown, which specializes in growing these honeysuckle flowers. The flowers are much bigger than those sold outside! And they taste better too!"
"I still have some left at home. I'll send you some later to try."
Hearing Madam Yuan say this, He Feng hurriedly opened his mouth and said with a smile: "No, no, Madam Xu, it's rare that you like this tea. We still have some in stock at home. I'll have someone pack some for you later."
When Madam Yuan heard this, she was shocked and joked, "Hey, Madam Lu, you can't be partial to one and ignore the other!"
Gu Yunxi chuckled and agreed, "Yes, yes, I'll pack some for Master's wife later."
He Feng also nodded, and immediately told Xiao Cui, who was waiting on the side, to go down and pack the tea leaves.
After they sat in the room for a while, Mrs. Wang from Mrs. He's room came out to report, "The old lady has finished her work and is preparing to come over now. Sorry to have kept you ladies waiting for so long."
Mrs. He copied and recited scriptures at a fixed time every day.
Now, the copying of the scriptures should be completed and the chanting of the sutras should be finished.
After saying that, Mother Wang left in a hurry. After a while, Mother Wang supported Mrs. He and slowly walked towards the main house.
"mother!"
"Grandma!"
"Mrs. He!"
All the people who were originally sitting in the main room stood up and called out to people with smiles on their faces.
Mrs. He walked in with a smile and said several times, "Okay, okay, everyone has been waiting for a long time, please sit down."
As Mrs. He sat down, everyone also sat down with a smile, and the room became lively again with conversations.
"Mrs. He, you copy scriptures and recite them every day with such sincerity! I admire you so much!" Mrs. Xu said with a smile.
She stared at Mrs. He eagerly. The more she looked, the more she felt that Mrs. He looked 50% like her father-in-law.
She even bears some resemblance to her husband.
Suddenly, Mrs. Xu smiled more enthusiastically, and looked at Mrs. He more eagerly.
How shrewd is Mrs. He? She had already noticed Mrs. Xu's warmth, so she smiled politely and said, "Mrs. Xu, you are too kind."
"I am old now and can no longer do many things. I can only copy scriptures and recite sutras to pass the time."
Madam Xu heard this and hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, you are still young. I didn't know before, and I thought you and Madam Lu were sisters!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room couldn't help laughing.
Madam Yuan also agreed, saying, "Yes, yes, I think so too. Madam He has taken great care of herself. Is there any way you can teach us?"
Mrs. He smiled happily and waved her hands repeatedly: "There is no way, just take some supplements every day."
Gu Yunxi watched her master's wife and Madam Xu making her grandmother happy, and she couldn't help but purse her lips and suppress her smile.
My grandmother has fair skin and a rosy complexion, and indeed looks younger than other old ladies of the same age.
But, if she looks like a sister to He Feng, then, that's not the case...
But these words are just to make my grandmother happy. Don't take them too seriously. After all, as a woman, who doesn't like to be praised?
Although my grandmother is old, she is still a woman!
"Let grandma write some health-preserving prescriptions for us later. We should also follow grandma's care to maintain our skin. Look at my skin, it's not even as good as grandma's!" Gu Yunxi said with a smile.
She often walks outside, exposed to the sun and rain, and her skin is a little tanned.
Seeing this, Mrs. He smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll write some health-preserving prescriptions later."
For a moment, the room was filled with laughter and jokes.
Mrs. Xu was very happy and took the initiative to ask Mrs. He some questions about Buddhism.
Mrs. He started to believe in Buddhism after He Feng went missing. Over the years, she has gained a deep understanding of Buddhism and can answer all the questions raised by Mrs. Xu.
He even incorporated his own life experiences and some of his inner thoughts.
Madam Xu couldn't help but be fascinated by what she was saying. So were He Feng and Gu Yunxi beside her. They were still immersed in the Buddhist teachings until Madam He stopped talking.
Only Mrs. Yuan didn't listen at all, and even looked at them in obsession with a look of confusion on her face.
"Hey, hey, what's wrong with you guys?"
Only when they heard Mrs. Yuan's call did they come to their senses.
Madam Xu smiled and thanked her sincerely: "I have benefited a lot from Madam He's explanation today. Madam He really makes me admire you."
He Feng also looked at her mother with admiration.
Before this, she had never known that her mother had such profound attainments in Buddhism. It was only thanks to Madam Xu today that she was able to seriously understand this aspect of her mother.
It seems that she doesn't care enough about her mother!
Mrs. He smiled and shook her head: "Compared with the truly powerful people, I am still far behind. If there is a chance in the future, I will take you to listen to the master's lectures on Buddhism during Buddhist events."
"Grandma, isn't there a Buddhist festival on the third day of next month? Will there be a master lecture on Buddhism then?" Gu Yunxi suddenly asked.
Mrs. He nodded and said, "That's right. If it's the same as in previous years, there will be one, but I don't know this year. I heard that Master Miaozhi has gone on a journey, and I don't know if he can come back in time."
Upon hearing this, Madam Xu also became interested and hurriedly asked, "Madam He, can you take me with you to the Buddhist event?"
