Chapter 3 Putuo Temple
...
Yan Ning's appetite has increased significantly recently and he has eaten very much every meal. Seeing that his already round body has gained weight again, Yan's mother finally couldn't help it.
On this day, Yan Ning and her mother went for a walk in the yard to digest food after eating. Yan Ning smiled along the way, pursed her lips from time to time, touched her round belly, and pinched her tiny fingers, feeling satisfied.
Yan's mother couldn't help but glance at Yan Ning several times along the way, and finally couldn't hold it in as she looked at her little movements from time to time. When passing by the pavilion in the garden, Yan's mother pulled Yan Ning and turned around to sit in the pavilion.
Yan Ning looked at his mother in confusion, saying that he would digest food, why didn’t he leave again?
Yan's mother held her daughter's little fleshy hand and gently pinched it. Looking at the pit that easily appeared on her hand, Yan's mother spoke worriedly, "An An is very hungry recently?"
"It's okay." Yan Ning glanced at him again, wondering why his mother frowned.
"Then... can An An tell her mother why she has eaten so much recently?" It's not that she doesn't want her daughter to eat more, after all, it's a blessing to be able to eat, but Yan Ning's appetite is twice as big as usual!
Yan's mother was worried, but Yan Ning was puzzled.
"I read the book and said that eating more is good, An An wants to be healthy."
Yan's mother was puzzled, An An's health has always been very good.
But this is not a big deal. After Yan's mother asked, she didn't say much, but turned around and talked about another thing.
"Mom is going to Putuo Temple to burn incense tomorrow. An An and her mother will go with her."
"Okay, okay." Yan Ning clapped his hands and said, his chubby face was full of smiles.
In her previous life, due to her physical reasons, she had never gone far away. Her mother asked for her to burn incense and worship Buddha. Now she is lucky enough to have a good health, so of course she also has to go for her to pray for her parents and ask for peace.
Early the next morning, Yan Ning was sleeping in a daze when she heard the sound of her beautiful mother asking her to get up. Yan Ning squinted her eyes and looked out. It was very good, it was still dark. Yan Ning, who was a lazy person, was whispering, but she didn't want to get up. Yan's mother had no choice but to take Yan Ning out of the quilt and serve her to wear clothes.
After the two of them got it clean, they took their maids and servants to Putuo Temple.
On the carriage, Yan's mother sat on the side and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. Yan Ning sat next to her, pinching her hands from time to time and rubbing her face, and she couldn't stop for a moment. Her black eyes turned and turned, and she called Yan's mother in a low voice.
"Mother?"
Yan's mother seemed to be asleep, without any reaction. Yan Ning secretly covered her mouth and smiled. Her big eyes, which were clearly black and white, floated to the small table in the carriage.
There were a few plates of brightly colored and fragrant pastries there. Yan Ning quietly reached out, and his fleshy little hand was rubbing for a while and finally touched the edge of the plate. She smiled and pinched the top osmanthus cake and moved it gently until the osmanthus cake had reached her mouth. Yan Ning sniffed the fragrance a few times, opened her mouth wide and was about to enjoy it, but a "magic sound" came from her ears.
"An An..." Yan Ning's hand shook, and the pastry fell down her body, falling to pieces.
"Mom... the osmanthus cake is broken." Yan Ning blinked, his rosy mouth pouted slightly, and his two little hands stirred together uneasily, looking like he was about to cry.
Yan's mother sighed, rubbed her eyebrows, and stood up helplessly and pushed the plate of osmanthus cake to the side, "Hey, eat it."
Yan Ning smiled happily, and immediately picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it. With her bulging cheeks, she looked like a little hamster.
When the carriage arrived at Putuo Temple, Yan Ning had already halfway the osmanthus cake on the plate. He burped a little and got off the carriage after Yan's mother. At such a young age, he looked like a lady, which made Yan's mother laugh.
Yan Ning was weak and sickly in his previous life, so he could only stay in the boudoir to recuperate. He could only go out for a walk every summer. However, his parents were worried that her body would not be able to bear it and had never been to too far away. In the past, every time she heard Madam Zhang say that her parents went to Putuo Temple to worship Bodhisattva again, she had never seen what this huge Putuo Temple looked like.
When he saw this today, Yan Ning felt that the world-renowned incense of Putuo Temple was well-known. Yan's mother took her out in the dark to make the first incense stick. Unexpectedly, the lobby of Putuo Temple was already coming and going, and it was very lively.
The temple surrounded by Sanskrit sounds was a huge golden body of Buddha. Yan Ning looked around with his neck tilted to look at the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue had a charity face, his hands clasped his hands and looked charity, as if the nine heavenly gods and Buddhas smiled with flowers. It had been traveling through thousands of years, and the strong shock sounded in her heart.
Yan Ning heard the conversation between Yan's mother and the abbot in a trance. The Buddhist verse was obscure, but her heart was clear. Could this be the truth that only those who had died once realized?
"An An, can you worship Buddha with your mother? Let the Buddha bless us with peace and peace." Yan's mother smiled softly, and looked at Yan Ning and asked her for her opinion with her eyes.
"I also want my mother and father to pay homage." Yan Ning tilted her head and looked at Yan's mother. She didn't know how her parents were after she died in her previous life, but there were always sadness and sadness. In this life, she just wanted to take care of herself and protect her parents.
Yan's mother couldn't help laughing at Yan Ning's appearance, but she still smiled and nodded, "But then An An and her mother have to worship together."
The two of them stepped forward, and Yan Ning kowtowed to Yan's mother's actions.
Buddha, if you really have a spirit, please bless my parents with a smooth and healthy life.
