The hill is not famous and not very high. Naturally, there are no facilities for climbing at night. There are very gentle steps up the mountain. But after all, it is dark and it is not safe to go up the mountain.
Li Ying heard that Lan Jingyu was halfway up the mountain, thought for a moment, took the newly folded ingots and went to the main hall, burned them in front of her grandmother's altar, whispered a few words, and then ran to the mountain gate.
There were many mosquitoes in the mountains, so she had to keep moving while standing still.
The phone was always open, and Lan Jingyu talked to her all the way up the mountain without feeling out of breath.
"There are wild peaches around here. Can I pick two for you?"
Li Ying quickly said no, "It's dark, don't act recklessly, it will be embarrassing if you fall."
"Oh, are you afraid of being embarrassed, not worried about me?"
Li Ying said: "I'm afraid that you will feel embarrassed and not be able to see me!"
She tiptoed to look down the mountain and said, "You are so brave. Let me tell you, my uncle is here. If you bump into him, you will lose at least half of your skin tonight!"
"That's worth it."
"What's it worth?"
"Didn't you say yesterday that vegetarian food tastes bad in your mouth?"
"Did you bring me meat?" Li Ying frowned and said, "No, I won't eat it."
"You little fool, how could I bring you meat?"
"What is that?"
"You will know after seeing it."
It was dark under the mountain, and Li Ying was afraid that he would be distracted, so she stopped talking and just turned on the flashlight early and waited above.
After a long time, I finally heard footsteps.
When the lights go down, it's time to kiss your boyfriend.
Lan Jingyu was carrying a food box and wearing sportswear. He looked up and smiled at her. Seeing that she was about to run down, he quickened his pace and went up.
The two met on the last step. Lan Jingyu stood below and hugged his girl with one hand.
She was dressed plainly and looked like a cheongsam, but not quite.
Li Ying pulled her clothes and said, "It's a gown, my aunt's clothes."
Saying that, he pulled him up.
The courtyard was quiet, so she pulled him through carefully and reached the side of the main hall.
"Did you fold these?" Lan Jingyu whispered.
Li Ying nodded, put her things away, and asked him to sit down.
"There's no rush." Lan Jingyu shook his head, pointed to the direction from which the incense smoke came, and said, "Should I go to offer incense or kowtow?"
Li Ying scratched her head, she didn't quite understand this rule.
"You're here," Lan Jingyu said.
Li Ying thought about it, walked up to him, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then straightened his clothes.
After doing this, she led him towards the main hall.
The hall was dark, with only the light of candlelight.
After crossing the high threshold, there is a strong smell of incense inside, and there is a young novice who keeps watch next to it, responsible for managing the incense at night.
Seeing Li Ying bringing people in, the young novice approached and put his hands together.
"Would you like to light a lamp?" asked the young novice.
Li Ying didn't quite understand. She glanced at Lan Jingyu, then looked at the little novice monk, and said, "My boyfriend kowtows, should he do it?"
The young novice nodded, "I have not been engaged in this sub-contract. If not, just treat me as a guest of the master's family and just kowtow."
Lan Jingyu: "I have ordered it."
Li Ying paused and said, "Yes, just make an order and come over."
The young novice didn't ask too many questions and just went about his business. He lit a sacrificial lamp according to the rules, burned paper money and ingots, and asked Lan Jingyu to kowtow.
Li Ying then knelt on the futon, and they both kowtowed three times in a row.
The little novice monk poured water from the bottle of water next to him, gave Lan Jingyu a bowl, and that was it.
Li Ying took him out and said in his ear: "Let me tell you, you just said it yourself. If you don't treat me well in the future, my grandma will go find you!"
Lan Jingyu smiled and said, "Then if you don't follow me, how can I find a way to complain to your grandma? I'll take my three heads and won't do anything."
