Chapter 1974 Mrs. Jia recruits her husband
Xuanzang walked forward and knocked on the door.
Not long after, a middle-aged woman walked out, wearing gorgeous clothes and dazzling beads, and she looked graceful and elegant. She should be the owner of this wealthy family.
"Hello, female donor, I am polite." Xuanzang said with a smile
"So he is a monk, why are you here?" the middle-aged woman asked with a smile.
"I am a monk who came from the Tang Dynasty in the East to seek scriptures in the West. He passed by here and wanted to draw some disasters here. I wonder if the female donor can agree?" Xuanzang said.
"Of course, please come in. There are few people here. Apart from my three daughters, I am the only one woman, and there are no servants. The master sat in this hall for a while and I will prepare some vegetarian meals." The woman still looked very enthusiastic and an enthusiastic person.
Xuanzang nodded with a smile, "Thank you, female donor."
Xuanzang waited alone in this hall, and he did not run around, just recited the scriptures here for a while and was in a daze.
Soon the woman came out again to pick the rice and prepare it, and the speed was quite fast.
"Master can taste it. I usually cook at home. I think it tastes good." The woman smiled.
Xuanzang nodded as well and began to taste it.
"Female donor, the rice you cook is really amazing. I took a bite and felt it was endless aftertaste. It was really good. I don't know if there is wine here for the female donor. If such a delicious rice plus a glass of wine, it would be really hard to have it in the world." Xuanzang said with a smile.
The woman showed surprise, "Master, are you a monk? Do you still want to drink alcohol?"
"Wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha stays in his heart. As long as there is a Buddha in his heart, why bother with these ordinary rules?" Xuanzang said disapprovingly.
The woman nodded, and didn't say anything more, and went to get a pot of wine and gave it to Xuanzang.
"Wow!" Xuanzang shouted after taking a sip, "Female donor, your wine is really like a fairy wine and makes you feel refreshed and flying. It's so good."
Xuanzang is in a very good mood now. He didn't expect that the rice and wine made by the wealthy families in this mountain were so delicious. It was really amazing.
"If the master likes, eat more and drink more." The woman sat aside and said with a smile.
Xuanzang ate and drank here. He had been eating and drinking for nearly an hour, and his belly was about to swell. The rice was so delicious.
After eating, Xuanzang was drinking tea when suddenly he heard a sound outside the door, and the woman went out to take a look.
Soon a few people came in outside, and it was Sun Wukong and others.
"Wukong, why are you here?" Xuanzang stood up with a smile.
"Master Xuanzang, we are waiting for you to return to vegetarian food. I didn't expect you to eat this kind of delicacy here alone. You are really not interested enough." Sun Wukong glanced at the leftovers on the table and said.
Xuanzang smiled awkwardly, "I forgot that the rice was so delicious just now, I just tasted..."
After Xuanzang said halfway, he suddenly stopped, with a look of surprise in his eyes. He looked at the woman and then at the meal on the table.
"What's wrong with the master?" the woman asked.
"nothing."
Xuanzang's face was a little abnormal, as if he had remembered something.
The woman went back to cook for Sun Wukong and others, and the others were waiting here.
"Master Xuanzang, didn't we just say a few words to you? As for being so angry?" Sun Wukong asked as he looked at Xuanzang.
Xuanzang shook his head: "I'm not angry with you, I'm just angry with myself."
Everyone looked at Xuanzang in confusion, not knowing what was wrong.
"I have been drinking and eating meat a long time ago, but I know that this is not a bad rule, because there is always Buddha in my heart, and I can always control my desires.
However, this time I came here to eat these vegetarian food and drink these wines. I was actually confused by the delicacy, forgot my persistence in my heart, and expanded my desires. And I also forgot what you know about these delicacies. With this delicacy, I will definitely share it with you as soon as possible, but I didn’t do it.”
Xuanzang frowned slightly and said to Sun Wukong and others.
Sun Wukong and the others were also surprised when they heard this. They naturally knew who Xuanzang was. Although they had just teased Xuanzang, they did not blame Xuanzang.
Xuanzang was a more loyal person. They all knew that there was such delicious food, so he would not think too much, but this time Xuanzang did not inform them.
"What's going on? Can you say that you can no longer control your desires?" asked Sun Wukong.
Xuanzang shook his head slightly, "I don't know much. Maybe it's because of this. At least I didn't control myself while eating just now. It seems that I still don't practice enough and need to continue working hard."
After saying that, Xuanzang walked aside and silently recited the scriptures, feeling a sense of guilt.
After everyone finished their meal, they lived in this wealthy family.
"Have you asked the female donor's surname?"
"My surname is Jia."
"I've met Mrs. Jia."
Several of them sat together and chatted.
Xuanzang also wanted to know this family and understand their situation. After all, you need to know the sufferings of sentient beings in order to save all sentient beings.
"My husband died the previous year, leaving behind this huge family property, a thousand hectares of fertile land and a wealth of wealth. However, the couple did not leave a son, but only gave birth to three daughters. It was really difficult to find an inheritor."
After saying that, Mrs. Jia shook her head.
"The four of us mother and daughter want to recruit husbands here, and there are four or five people here. If you all stay here, how about?" Mrs. Jia looked at Xuanzang with a smile.
After hearing this, Xuanzang and the others were slightly stunned, thinking they had heard it wrong.
"We are all monks, and we can't do these things."
"Master Xuanzang, you even ate wine and meat just now. Do you still care about this? Just like what you said, wine and meat are left in the heart of the Buddha. Even if you clarify it here, it doesn't matter, as long as you have Buddha in your heart."
Mrs. Jia said with a smile.
