Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 55: Praying to God and Worshiping Buddha
Shen Jian'an was already estranged from everyone. In this case, Yao Shu had to try her best to eliminate the estrangement between the brothers. Of course, she could no longer let Shen He and others talk nonsense, lest it would deepen the conflicts between the brothers.
No one said anything, but Shen Jianan felt a little uncomfortable. Now he realized that he had made a mistake in believing that he should not have lent the cotton-padded clothes to Zhao Liangtian.
Since he had done something wrong, it was really strange that everyone remained silent.
"Fourth, come here."
"it is good."
Just when he was confused and didn't know what to do, Yao Shu's voice sounded.
He guessed in his heart that Yao Shu must have come to teach him a lesson this time, but even so, he felt at ease.
Shen Jian'an couldn't help but think in his heart that maybe he was the Shen family, so he shouldn't think about separating from the Shen family. His temperament was not that of the Shen family.
Yao Shu's face was very peaceful. She certainly didn't call Shen Jian'an over to teach him a lesson. She wasn't free enough for that.
"Fourth brother, can you still get this cotton coat back? Do you want some help from your brothers?"
"No, Zhao Liangtian said he would return it tomorrow."
Shen Jian'an still shook his head. He couldn't bear to ask his brothers at home for help. Besides, he didn't want to make the matter a big deal.
If a fight breaks out, both families will lose face.
Yao Shu took a deep look at Shen Jianan and suddenly realized that the other person's problem was the most serious among the five brothers.
Although Shen Qiu and others have some minor flaws and like to take advantage of others, at least they won't suffer any loss. Only Shen Jian'an's temper can be easily manipulated, and that's not the case this time.
With the ready-made example right in front of her, Yao Shu couldn't help but sigh.
You must know that in the current situation, cotton-padded clothes are extremely precious. It is not an exaggeration to say that it can cost half a life. If she had not got new cotton, she would definitely get this cotton-padded clothes back.
At that time, I still didn’t know what the fuss was about.
"Do you really think they will come back? They will definitely go out to look for food again tomorrow."
Facing Yao Shu's questioning, Shen Jian'an remained silent. The answer was actually obvious, but he deceived himself and refused to say it.
Yao Shu didn't necessarily want to hear his answer. Seeing the other person's evasive gaze, she knew that Shen Jian'an also knew that Zhao Liangtian was just deceiving him.
It's good to know this. At least she doesn't have to worry about Shen Jian'an being fooled around. Don't be betrayed and still help the other party lose money.
"Okay, go get a bucket of water."
Yao Shu turned to other things.
Children can be taught slowly. For someone as old as Shen Jianan, it is not easy to break the other person's temper. There are more urgent things to do at the moment.
This sudden order was a bit strange, but Shen Jianan immediately followed it.
They were at the top of the mountain now, and it was actually not easy to fetch water. It was also because it was snowing outside, but it saved some trouble. He only had to bring a bucket of snow back from outside, and it turned into water in a short time.
Every household in the mountain temple lit a small fire, so the temperature here was extremely high.
"Mom, the water is ready."
"You come with me."
Yao Shu came to the main hall. Perhaps because of the awe in their hearts, everyone tacitly agreed to stay as far away from the center of the main hall as possible.
This is fine, but it saves a lot of trouble.
"Go and clean the mountain statue."
"Mom, what are we doing cleaning this?"
Shen Jian'an couldn't figure out what the fuss was about. They had lived in the mountain temple for so long and had never paid attention to the mountain statue. Why did such a good person suddenly have this idea today.
Everyone has lived in Shanshen Temple for so long, but no one has done anything.
It's not that everyone has no respect for ghosts and gods, but that life has been too hard. They also prayed to gods and worshiped Buddha, but life still caused them to suffer too much. Gradually, everyone stopped thinking about it.
"Just do what I ask you to do."
Yao Shu has already started to work.
She had already taken action, so Shen Jianan could only watch from the side, so he could only follow her.
The mother and son were busy here, attracting the attention of many people. Everyone looked at it strangely and didn't understand what the fuss was about. They had never seen the Shen family so diligent. This night Yes, it opened my eyes.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
The village chief was also very confused about this and simply asked him directly.
In his opinion, Yao Shu should not do meaningless things. Bao Buqi had some good ideas.
"We have been relying on the mountain temple for so long, and we feel a little sorry for letting the statue gather dust without cleaning it."
Yao Shu said.
"Besides, I also ask the mountain gods to protect us and help us get through the difficulties safely. It would be best if we could find a town to settle down."
The village chief never expected that she had such a plan, and he was a little unable to answer the question.
In his opinion, this was a waste of effort, and the gods in the sky would not care what kind of life they lived.
But this was not a big deal. Everyone prayed to God and Buddha just to seek some comfort. At most, it would be a waste of work and there wouldn't be much loss, so he didn't say anything to stop it.
Yao Shu and Shen Jian'an worked very quickly. In less than a quarter of an hour, the statue was cleaned.
However, even after the dust was swept away, the statue was still as tattered as ever, making others unable to feel the slightest sense of awe when looking at it.
But Yao Shu showed great respect, and even brought out snacks and fruits as tributes.
This was something brought back from the county government office. The Shen family had never been willing to finish it, but now it was placed on the altar.
Given everyone's current situation, these things are extremely precious. They can be said to be extremely valuable tributes. Even the Shen family is reluctant to part with them.
"Mom, even if we want to offer sacrifices, we don't have to use such good things, right? How about we use wild vegetable dumplings."
Shen He looked at the cakes in Yao Shu's hand with great reluctance.
"What do you know? You have to be careful when worshiping gods. Only if you are sincere will the gods bless you. Since we can get better things, how can we use wild vegetables to worship the mountain gods?"
Yao Shu said seriously.
In fact, she didn't believe in the ghosts and gods at all. She said these words just to pave the way for what she would do next.
Seeing her praying to gods and Buddhas in such a serious manner, the people in Dahezhuang village were also sighing. In their opinion, this must be because their life was too hard.
"Sister-in-law is also confused. It's better to keep those snacks for yourself. At least it can still fill your stomach."
