Chapter 956 Putuo Temple

"In the past few years, we celebrated the New Year in Fucheng, and it was very lively. Now that we are in Kyoto, it may be even more lively. I am looking forward to the Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival, and we will make some beautiful lanterns by then."

Mrs. Li was eating melon seeds, occasionally looking at the children playing on the ground, and suggested softly.

"What's so difficult about this? I'll ask the butler to go to the lantern shop to customize a few more and hang more at home. We'll be happy to see them ourselves."

A new year, a new beginning, and it’s the tenth year since Baiyunxi came here.

Seeing the whole family enjoying themselves, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart.

It has been a lot of hard work over the years, but the rewards are also great.

Although the boss's rat droppings were among them, luckily she picked them out in time and threw them away without spoiling the pot of soup.

At the beginning of the new year, the Bai family also opened a new era in Kyoto and became the new rich in Kyoto.

The beliefs and customs of Kyoto are very similar to those of the prefecture.

On the first day of the new year, I climbed up and looked far away.

But the heavy snow closed the door, and they wanted to find a place to climb. Fortunately, there are several pavilions and pavilions in the yard, so just take a walk around them to get the idea.

On the fifth watch day, with the sound of firecrackers, everyone eats the fifth watch meal together.

After that, the children gave her New Year greetings and gave her red envelopes.

After everyone paid their New Year's greetings, the sky was already dark. Baiyunxi stood on the porch with his big cloak folded up, looking at the snowflakes falling in the sky.

Looking around, the entire Kyoto is shrouded in white.

"What a coincidence. It snowed heavily on the first day of the new year. Are we still going out?"

Ms. Li was wearing an orange dress and a quilted jacket. She stood next to her mother-in-law, holding a persimmon in her hand and looking at the sky while biting it.

"They say it's not freezing when it snows. You can go out if you want, but you can't bear the pain."

The most difficult thing in this era is transportation. Running out wet is very painful. Anyway, she likes to stay in a warm house, eating melon seeds and chatting with others.

"Mom is right. When the snow stops and the roads are clear, we can go wherever we want."

Mrs. Li nodded in agreement and looked back at her two sons rolled into a ball on the blanket. It's not good to go out with your children on a snowy day. It would be terrible if they get cold.

But Xiaosi couldn't sit still, so he said hello to everyone and went out with his entourage.

An hour later,

A group of people returned wrapped in the wind and snow.

Xiaosi stood on the porch cleaning the snow on her body. Baiyunxi saw her and chuckled,

"Come back so soon?"

"There are no people on the street, and the snow on the ground has not been cleared in time, making the road difficult to walk."

The streets of Kyoto are cleaned regularly by dedicated personnel. But on New Year's Day, who doesn't want to stay at home and enjoy a rare holiday.

Xiao Si rubbed his hands and came in. He went to the brazier to warm his hands first, shook his head and sighed, thinking he could have a good time during the Chinese New Year.

It's a pity that people in Kyoto are too lazy to go out.

How about some snow?

"It's more comfortable to stay at home, without having to suffer from the cold."

Bai Anjing sat next to her. She hadn't been seen sewing during the Chinese New Year. She was holding a teacup in her hand, blowing on it gently and taking a sip.

Looking at Xiaosi's cheeks that were red from the cold, Baiyunxi poured him a glass of hot water.

"This is the difference between boys and girls. They like to run outside. There is a vast world outside where they can flex their muscles."

"Mom is right. They say the sky is high and birds can fly. Only by going out more and seeing more can you have a chance."

In the past few years, he has grown rapidly. When he went back a while ago, shopkeeper Jiao said that he seemed to have changed as a person, and that he had become like a big boss.

Listening to Xiao Si's voice, Bai Yunxi also agreed. In the past few years, Xiao Si's career has become prosperous, her horizons have broadened, she has made money, and she has gained confidence, so her mentality has naturally improved.

After the second grade of junior high school, there was no one else in her family except Xie Yu and Xiaowu's senior brother.

Although there were few relatives, the family still received a lot of new year's gifts, all of which were sent by the housekeepers of each house. They said auspicious New Year's greetings, put down the gifts, and left.

Baiyunxi took Du Shi to take stock of the gifts sent from various places. They were all ordinary things. At the same price, it was enough to return one as a token of gratitude.

By the time the weather cleared up and the snow had almost melted, it was already the tenth day of the Lunar New Year.

The imperial court sealed the deal until the Shangyuan Festival, but if something happened during this period, the officials would directly announce that the ministers would come to the palace to discuss matters.

Early in the morning, Xiao Wu was summoned to the palace.

Looking at the fine weather, Baiyunxi thought about it and suggested going to Putuo Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha for a day of fun.

The idea was approved by the family.

As a female family member, my favorite place to go is various temples. In addition to making wishes, it is also an opportunity to go out.

Of course, Zhang Yishan still stayed at home, and it was freezing and snowy. Although the road was easier to walk, she was still a pregnant woman after all, and it was still risky to go out.

Medical care was backward during this period, and she really did not dare to let her daughter-in-law take risks.

"Ginkgo Guo takes good care of your master. I have already arranged the family affairs, so you don't need to worry too much. We will be back after a day out."

Zhang Yishan held Ginkgo's hand and stroked her protruding belly with one hand.

"Don't worry, Mom, I will stay at home and not go anywhere."

Not to mention that the road is not easy, even if she is good, she will not let herself take risks.

Now in her heart, she only has this child, and she only hopes that their mother and son will be well.

"Mama Zhu stayed at home to rest because she was freezing at night. If anything happens, you can just ask Gingko to find her."

"I know, maybe the officer will be back soon. With him by his side, it will be fine."

It’s the bustling New Year, and I’ve been staying at home for ten days, so I really need to go out for a walk.

Especially my second sister-in-law and her friends, who have not left the house since they came to Kyoto. They went to Putuo Temple to burn incense and pray for peace, and maybe they could even attend the annual meeting.

After watching Bai Yunxi’s carriage leave, Zhang Yisan turned back, leaned on the soft couch, and closed her eyes to rest.

A group of people sat in a carriage, set off from the west gate, and headed all the way to Putuo Temple.

Because the weather was good, there were many pedestrians on the road, and ox carts, mule carts, and horse carts left the city in an endless stream.

Although the snow in the city was cleared, no one cleared the snow outside the city. After being crushed by cars and people, it was a bit muddy.

It took an hour to stop at the gate of Putuo Temple for half an hour.

Putuo Temple is very popular. Standing at the door, you can see the smoke lingering above the courtyard.

The strong smell of incense filled the nostrils.

Bai Yunxi asked Qingchuan to pull the carriage over. She said hello to Xiao Si and took Yaya up the steps and into the temple.

Li followed behind holding Bai Anjing's hand. She left the child at home and asked Brother Yan to look after him so that he wouldn't be cold outside. She would ask for some amulets to bring back to bless her son to be safe and smooth.

After entering the temple, Bai Yunxi asked Xiao Si to ask the master chef for a dormitory as a temporary resting place.

"Okay, if you want to worship Buddha and listen to the sutras, go ahead. Just remember the way back."
