Southern Qi Fenghua Record

When Xia Houshu heard the words "Sister Immortal", she couldn't help laughing, but looking at He Luoshi, she felt a headache again.In front of so many people, how could she dare to accept such a big gift from the mother and son of the He family, and the mother was also watching from a distance...

She quickly stretched out her hand to help He Luoshi up, and declined: "You don't have to be polite, auntie, it's just a matter of raising your hands, please don't kowtow to me again, isn't this a shame for me?"

The expression on He Luoshi's face was extremely excited, and there were thousands of words in her heart, thanking in every possible way, although she knew that she would never say thank you for such a great kindness, but she felt that she would not be able to understand such a great kindness in this life, so she could only cry and say thank you words , kowtowing to Xia Houshu continuously.The onlookers didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and they kept praising them for being chivalrous and courageous, and for being kind and repaying.

Xia Houshu couldn't stand it any longer, the hand supporting He Luoshi used a lot of strength, finally pulled her up, and turned to help He Ji again.

Although the He Luo family stood up, her heart was still surging. She wiped away her tears indiscriminately, looked at Xia Houshu and said solemnly: "The girl saved my son's life regardless of the danger, and it is like rebuilding our family. Great kindness and great virtue, the family of the women will never forget it. If you dare to ask the girl's name, where does she live? When the women go to Huguo Temple, they must add more sesame oil and money to pray for the girl. When they return home in the future, tell the clan elders, and they must personally Thanks for visiting!"

Although the people of Nanqi are simple and honest, the woman's name cannot be casually told to outsiders.As for the family background, Xia Houshu remained unchanged.

The family of Xiahou is prominent, and all members of the clan have no worries about food and clothing, but they have left ancestors' precepts, teaching future generations to cherish all living beings in the dawn, and not to take credit for pride and lose people's hearts.In order to pass on this teaching, the Duke of Yue sent charcoal every winter and ice cubes every summer, which was praised by neighbors.On weekdays, donating medicines, setting up tents to give out porridge, and donating to build charitable halls, etc., do not consider manpower, material and financial resources.They do this without seeking merit or fame, just to have a clear conscience, and never expect anything in return.

Today Xia Houshu volunteered to rescue He Ji, and he also adhered to his original intention, and he couldn't do nothing to save him.So facing He Luoshi who was determined to repay her kindness, she seemed a little at a loss.In order to get out as soon as possible, she hurriedly handed the untied cow rope to Yunxi, asking her to return it to the old man surnamed Han, and said to He Luoshi: "It's nothing to do with a little effort, and there is no need to thank you at the door." His eyes shifted to the old man standing in the distance, "If you want to thank, thank this old man for lending the rope generously, otherwise I won't be able to rescue him."

He Luoshi followed Xia Houshu's line of sight, nodded kindly to the old man, and then continued: "This old man wants to thank, and the girl should be thanked for her great kindness!"

It seems that it doesn't make sense.

Xia Houshu was most afraid of trouble, so he was very helpless about it, so he could only sigh secretly.

He Luoshi didn't notice Xia Houshu's impatience, but thought she was embarrassed, quickly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, and said: "The husband of a civilian woman learned to do business from others, and often goes out. This time he came to protect the country The incense in the temple was only because my husband had not returned for two months without hearing from him. My parents-in-law and sister-in-law were all worried, and they sent people to inquire, but there was no news. Jier and I had nothing to do, so we came to Huguo Temple I pray for blessings, and I hope that the Buddha will bless him to return safely, but unexpectedly he was in such a dangerous situation. If the girl did not save me, I was afraid that my son's life would be lost, so I could only go with him. The girl saved my son, not alone, but It's our mother and son! If the girl insists on not revealing her name, how can the women feel at ease?"

People who come to Huguo Temple have more or less reasons, especially in this season, if it is not necessary, who would take the risk of trekking?

After hearing two stories of birth, old age, sickness, death, joys and sorrows in a row, Xia Houshu couldn't help being soft-hearted again, and couldn't bear to say no directly.But she also didn't want He Luoshi to repay her kindness with great fanfare. The Duke of Yue didn't need her small act of kindness to improve her reputation. Zhong Yuqing.

Not far away, Zhong Yuqing watched all this quietly, without any unnecessary words from the beginning to the end. At this moment, she saw through her daughter's mind, she walked over slowly, and said: "Since everyone is fine, Mrs. Luo You don’t have to be so persistent, just treat it as a good relationship.”

He Luoshi looked up at Zhong Yuqing, his face full of confusion.

Zhong Yuqing saw He Luoshi's reaction in her eyes, and continued unhurriedly: "My daughter's rescue today is out of her own heart, and it is really a matter of little effort. She is young, how can she afford you to thank you so much? If you feel uneasy, why not do more good deeds in the future, which can be regarded as accumulating merit for the little girl."

He Luoshi was overjoyed after hearing this, and immediately knelt down to thank Zhong Yuqing again, and said again and again: "Madam has a daughter like this, she is pure and kind, it is really a blessing. Women must do more good deeds in this life, to tell the girl for saving her life, Madame's generosity."

Rao Zhong Yuqing, who was used to being kneeled by others, couldn't help frowning when she saw this posture.

No one wants to accept a pair of mother and son who just came back from the edge of life and death to kneel down and thank them on this long and narrow mountain road, not to mention there are a group of pilgrims who stop and watch.

Xia Houshu was worried that this matter would continue to be deadlocked, so he hurriedly reminded: "Auntie He, look, you thanked me and my mother, and this matter is over now. You don't need to say anything to repay your kindness. I saw that He Ji was terrified, you guys have to take good care of it, the mountain is high and the road is slippery, don't let any accident happen." Then he pointed to the onlookers behind, "There are still many people waiting behind We are going to go to Huguo Temple to offer incense, so let's not keep blocking the road and delay others."

He Luoshi wept with joy, stood up quickly, and let Zhong Yuqing, Xia Houshu and others go forward first, while he ordered his servants to pack up the soft packages that they carried with them.She thought for a while, then took out a purse from her bag, opened it a little, put it into the hand of the old man surnamed Han, and said sincerely: "Thank you for helping me today, I'm so careful, I hope you don't dislike it. "

The old man Han didn't know why, so he looked down at the purse. There was a brightly colored peony flower embroidered on the high-quality fabric. He Luoshi stopped it.

He froze for a moment, opened it tremblingly according to He Luoshi's opinion, and saw that there was a bag of broken silver in it, and instantly felt that the purse weighed a thousand catties, so he hurriedly handed it back without even thinking about it. Said: "The old man didn't help much, I'm ashamed, madam should take it back!"

He Luoshi pursed his lips, leaned over and hugged the yellow and thin little girl behind the old man, looked at it carefully for a while, and said softly: "Look at how well-behaved this girl is, she is a beauty, but her life is hard, she is so thin Pity." Then he looked up at the old man again, "Don't refuse, old man, go back after entering the incense, find a place to settle down first, and buy some supplements for the girl, it's time to grow up, don't delay."

The old man looked down at his granddaughter lovingly, and suddenly didn't know whether to continue to stretch out the hand holding the purse, or to withdraw it.

The sharp-eyed maid behind He Luoshi immediately stepped forward and pushed the purse back, saying: "My wife really wants to thank you, so you can keep it, even if it's for your granddaughter."

The old man looked at his thin granddaughter again, thanked He Luoshi with tears in his eyes, and asked his granddaughter to kowtow to He Luoshi. The two sides thanked each other for a long time.

The pilgrims behind saw that there was nothing serious, and gradually became more mobile, and continued to move towards the mountain.

Zhong Yuqing seldom encountered such persistent and entangled people, so she breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and hurriedly took Xia Houshu a few steps forward.After confirming that He Luo's mother and son had been left behind, she let go of Xia Houshu's hand, and said to Qingfang, the maid behind her: "Please, no matter how the mother and son question you, don't tell her our identities. In addition, Feng 20 The old man who lent the rope to the cow with two silver coins just now is also a poor man." After speaking, she sighed softly.

Just as Qingfang responded, Zhong Yuqing emphasized again: "Remember, you are not allowed to reveal your identity."

Despite this, Xia Houshu became a popular person in the pilgrimage team, and people along the way praised her heroic deeds of saving people regardless of personal safety.Many of them were curious about their identities and tried their best to find out.

Because of Zhong Yuqing's warning in advance, no matter how they tried to inquire and inquire, the entourage chose to keep silent.The pilgrims couldn't hear any news, and seeing that they kept their identities secret and acted extremely mysteriously, they spread it even more miraculously.Some say that they are relatives of the emperor, and they are not allowed to reveal their identities when they travel in micro-clothes for safety; The Jianghu sect, chivalrous and righteous without asking for anything in return...

Rumors were passed around, and it was hard to tell whether they were true or false. Many people acquiesced that they were people from the rivers and lakes, and gradually they did not dare to continue to ask questions.

These rumors naturally reached the ears of Zhong Yuqing and Xia Houshu.

Zhong Yuqing chose to ignore it, but Xia Houshu couldn't laugh or cry.

As the saying goes, if a tree is more beautiful than a forest, the wind will destroy it.Fame and fortune are double-edged swords, and the entire Yue State government has been soberly aware of this since Xia Houxuan's death, and has always kept it in mind and put it into action.

Many people have seen Xia Houshu's rescue of people today, and if it spreads, most people may think that the Duke of Yue's mansion is well educated and sincere, and even the women are heroic and courageous, and they don't give in to men.But if they are used by people with ulterior motives, it will be said that they are trying to gain fame and win people's hearts.

Xia Houshu didn't want to reveal her identity, not because she was high-minded and indifferent, but because she was afraid of being shot.One is that he doesn't want to leave any trouble for the family in the future, and the other is that he doesn't want to cause trouble for himself.As for why she would cause trouble for herself, I'm afraid I have to start with why she appeared in this pilgrimage team.
