Chapter 3 Chapter 3

When the two went back, Grandma Qin and Wujie's master, Master Zhi En, had already had dinner and were resting in their respective hair rooms. When they heard the movement and asked through the window, they were relieved to know that both of them had returned. Qin Jiu didn't want his grandma to be worried, and he didn't want to talk about his injury, so he was carried back to his room by Wu Jie.

Looking at the dark room, Qin Jiu suddenly had a bad premonition, thinking that the rooms of Master Zhi En and grandma were all dark, he couldn't help but asked with some uncertainty, "You don't have electricity, do you?" .” There was a hint of imperceptible tension in his tone.If there is no electricity, his mobile phone will really become a decoration.

Wujie turned on the light and smiled, "A few years ago it wasn't there, but now it's installed. It's just that the master is used to going to bed early and doesn't use it much."

Qin Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, put him down on the kang and sat down, looked at his feet, but luckily they didn't continue to swell, and said to him, "You should rest for a while, I'll boil some water for you. Warm it up."

Qin Jiu nodded, watched Wujie go out, looked around the room boredly, and found that it was not small, but there were not many things, and the kang he was sitting on was big, but it was a bit hard, and there were quilts stacked in the corners of the kang, which looked It was very clean and tidy, and there were several Buddhist scriptures on the table in the corner.

The ground paved with blue bricks is clean, without any dust or paper scraps. It must be swept by people often. There is a plate of mosquito coils on the ground, which has been half lit. There is an old red wooden cabinet in the corner, which is probably used to store As for the clothes, there is no dust on them.

The bed sheet and the edge of the bed sitting under it were also very clean. The bed sheet was dark blue and had been washed to white, and there was no wrinkle on it.

The room is so big, it doesn't take more than a minute to read it all. Qin Jiu rested his chin and was very bored. He came in without quitting while he was in a daze, and handed him a wet towel in his hand, "This is a well washed Yes, it's very clean, wipe off your sweat first, and I'll boil the water." Then he was about to go out.

Qin Jiu quickly stopped him, "Take me with you, we two talk together, sitting alone is too boring."

Then he asked Wu Jie to help him bring his box over, find out the charger to charge the phone, Qin Jiu was carried to the kitchen by Wu Jie.

There was no light in the kitchen, so Qin Jiu sat on a small saddle and watched Wujie light a fire on the stove. The big bucket goes to the well to fetch water. The well in the temple was dug when the temple was just repaired, and it has a history of more than 200 years. The well rope has been replaced in recent years.

After fetching water, he poured it directly to the bottom of the pail. The water splashed on the bottom of the already hot pot, and a drop or two fell outside. Qin Jiu lowered his head and watched them evaporate quickly under the scorching red flames.

"What do you do every day?" Qin Jiu asked, not wanting to be awkward sitting opposite each other.

Wujie thought for a while, "chanting scriptures, reading books, chopping firewood, tidying up the temple, fetching water, cooking, and sometimes going down the mountain to help the old people in the village with something, and the young people have gone out to work. A few years ago, pilgrims came There are a lot of them, and they are lively during the festivals. In recent years, except for those who occasionally come to eat and live, not many people come here. There is a newly built temple at the foot of the mountain, and it is said that the incense is very prosperous." Wujie said, while going into the stove Add firewood.

Qin Jiu was speechless. He didn't expect the life without a ring to be so monotonous. He asked unwillingly, "Don't you have any entertainment here? Can you watch TV?"

Wujie shook his head, "A pilgrim sent a TV, but couldn't receive the signal, so I moved it down the mountain and put it in the village. The children love to watch it."

One can imagine how boring he will be living these days. Qin Jiu shook his head, holding his head helplessly and staring at the burning flames in a daze. He was far away, so he didn't notice that he had been sitting there watching the fire add more fuel. There was already sweat on his unstained forehead.

After a while, when the water was ready, Wujie brought a plastic basin, scooped up half of the basin's hot water and carried it to the house, then took a towel from the red lacquered box on the ground, put it in the basin to soak , and then carried Qin Jiu back into the house.

Unexpectedly, the water boiled so quickly, Qin Jiu was a little embarrassed, but Wu Jie didn't say anything, and went out with a smile.

Qin Jiu looked through the window and found that he brought another basin of water, went to Master Zhien's room, came out after a while, poured the water into the yard, took another basin and went into Grandma Qin's room in the same way .

After coming out, Wu Jie went to the well to wash his hands before entering the house. He tested the temperature of the hot water in the basin, and then wrung out the towel. Qin Jiu looked at him curiously, and saw that Wu Jie's hands were a little smoked by the heat. When it was red, she exclaimed, "Your hands are red, wait for it to cool down."

Wu Jie shook his head, the hot water flowed back into the basin along his hand, after making sure that it was wrung dry and neatly folded, he squatted down to take off Qin Jiu's shoes.

Qin Jiu was a little embarrassed, but Wu Jie's movements were quick, and before he could stop him, Wu Jie had already grabbed his two feet and put them on the kang, and applied a hot towel to his right ankle. His movements were gentle, except for the towel itself. Qin Jiu didn't feel the weight at all, but he hummed softly.

"Does it hurt?" Wu Jie asked, Qin Jiu shook his head, he is a big man, how could he not bear this pain.

Wujie hummed, and suddenly hesitated, "It's too late today, and it's too late to clean up the house, you, can you squeeze with me?"

Although he is not used to sleeping with other people, Wujie has already troubled him too much today, so he nodded, and Wujie immediately became happy like a big dog, his eyes shone brightly, "I have never lived with anyone before, Don't worry, the bedding is clean and washed frequently."

Seeing him so happy, Qin Jiu also showed a smile, he had never slept with anyone before.

Because the towel on Qin Jiu's feet was cold, Wu Jie eagerly helped him change it, and took another basin to sit on the mat to wash his feet, Qin Jiu suddenly remembered and asked, "What did you do in my grandma's room just now? "

"Helping wash the feet, the master is the same." Wu Jie answered casually while flicking the water intently.

Qin Jiu was surprised, "Will you wash my grandma's feet?"

Seeing his surprise, Wujie raised his head and smiled, "Well, most of the pilgrims who will come to stay are young, and some of them are inconvenient. I just help wash feet and clothes, and I'm used to it."

Hearing what he said so naturally, Qin Jiu suddenly felt uncomfortable. After thinking for a long time, he said angrily, "I haven't washed grandma's feet yet, so I'll do it from now on."

Wu Jie didn't pay attention to his tone of voice, he went to pour water on his shoes, put away the mat, turned around and asked Qin Jiu, "Do you want to wash your feet?"

Qin Jiu hummed, he had driven for a day today, and it was summer again, not only did he have to wash his feet, but his body was also very uncomfortable, it would be best if he could take a bath.

Just as he was thinking about it, Wu Jie had already fetched water and came back. He put the basin on the ground, squatted down halfway, and went to untie Qin Jiu's shoelaces. Qin Jiu was so startled that Wu Jie got a sudden bump on Wu Jie's shoulder. "what you do?"

"Wash your feet, it's inconvenient for you now." Wu Jie said as he untied his shoelaces and took off his socks.The towel on his right foot was already cold, so he took it off and put it on the edge of the bed, carefully holding it and putting it into the water basin.

Qin Jiu struggled again, but was held down by Wu Jie, telling him not to move around. Thinking of this, Qin Jiu stopped coddling, so he had to watch Wu Jie wash his feet awkwardly. With a caring look, he gently avoided the wound, carefully scrubbed it clean, and then wiped it dry.

Seeing that Qin Jiu's toenails grew a little bit, he went to the yard after splashing water and found nail clippers to cut for him. Qin Jiu hurriedly said no, but he took it and found that his right foot was not working hard at all. He was in a dilemma, so he helped. After all this tossing, Qin Jiu was completely speechless, suspecting that he was treating him as an old man and old lady who needed to be taken care of.

He sat on the side with his knees hugged, watching Qin Jiu quickly take off his shoes and get on the kang, first he laid out two mattresses, after thinking about it, he folded the two together, then put two pillows, and said to Qin Jiu, "This kang is made of stone. I'm afraid you won't be used to sleeping. I'll lay out two layers of mattresses for you. I'll sleep like this." He said and put a thin quilt on it, and said, "It's still a little hot now, but On the mountain at night, the wind is strong and the temperature is low, so you must cover yourself with a quilt, if you don’t want to cover it now, you can pull it yourself when it’s cold at night.”

Qin Jiu hummed, looking at his luggage hesitantly, just as he was hesitating, Wujie had already taken off his clothes, only a pair of underwear on his body, and got under the covers.

Then, thinking of something, he leaned over and lit the mosquito coils, and said with a smile, "there are a lot of mosquitoes in the mountains, so you must light mosquito coils. There were herbs to repel mosquitoes before, but they are gone now, and I forgot to pick them. Tomorrow." Just get some and make you a sachet to wear on your body."

When he said this, Qin Jiu remembered that he had been bitten by mosquitoes, so he responded, and he could not tell others to take off his coat, lie down on the bed and close his eyes.

Seeing that he was asleep, Wu Jie pulled the light cord, and the light went out immediately, and the light in the room became low. Fortunately, the moon came in from the window, although it was blurry, it was better than complete darkness.

There are two layers of mattresses, although it is not as uncomfortable as the mattress at home, it is similar to the school bed, and he is used to sleeping on it.

Seeing that there was only a thin layer of sheets in Wujie's place, it seemed uncomfortable, Qin Jiu said, "You can take a mattress, I'm fine."

Wujie shook his head and smiled, "I'm used to sleeping like this, it's fine. Do you think the moon dazzles your eyes? I don't have curtains here. If you live in a wing room tomorrow, you won't dazzle your eyes."

Qin Jiu turned around and lay down, looked at Wu Jie, and asked nonchalantly, "Why are you so nice to me?"

Wu Jie froze for a moment, turned around and looked at him with his arms under his pillow, their eyes met, the moonlight shone on Qin Jiu's face, his face was blurred, only his eyes were clear, he suddenly felt embarrassed, "I, I have no friends, Can you be my friend?"

Qin Jiu lowered his eyes and finally hummed after a long while. He has a monk friend who seems to be pretty good.
