Chapter 177 Make a Wish
Is he taking credit for it?
Or did he want her to praise him for his energy?
Xu Qingwu was a little unsure of Cen Xihuai's thoughts for a moment, so she chose to ask directly and boldly: "What do you want me to praise you for?"
Cen Xihuai was choked by her move, and it took him a long time to utter a few words: "No need."
Didn’t you just ask for praise? Why don’t you ask for it now?
Xu Qingwu couldn't understand.
It is said that a woman's heart is as deep as the sea, but in her opinion, a man's heart is the real deep sea needle.
As she walked, she leaned towards Cen Xihuai, and without thinking twice, she praised him in every possible way: "Thank you for taking care of me all night, husband. You have great energy too!"
No matter whether it is true or false, or exaggerated or not, just praise it with one word and it will be over.
Cen Xihuai then hummed with satisfaction and held her hand even tighter.
Two pairs of men and women arrived at the temple one after another.
It is not a temple that internet celebrities like to check in. It is not very famous. Even if you don’t pay for the entrance fee, there are not many tourists coming here. Most of the visitors are locals. But now at the end of the year, it is bustling with many people.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a large incense burner that is burning, and people are queuing up to burn incense.
There is a queue at the door, where each person can get three free incense sticks. Of course, you can also buy high-quality incense on your own, but the price is more expensive.
Cen Xihuai doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but he will respect others. He lowered his head and asked Xu Qingwu for her opinion: "If you want free ones, I will go to queue up. If you want high-quality incense, I will buy it. What do you think?"
Xu Qingwu whispered to him, "Why not buy it? It'll be more thoughtful. What we're asking for is a bit difficult to accomplish."
Thinking of what she had said before about purifying the bad luck for the two of them, Cen Xihuai couldn't help but laugh and said okay.
As for Yang Yu and Jiang Jun, Jiang Jun wanted to go straight to the place where the free incense was burned, but as it was the end of the year, there were many people praying for the coming year, and the queue was very long.
Yang Yu quickly pulled him back and said, "We don't know how long the queue will take. Let's go buy some incense."
Jiang Jun disagreed: "It's enough to burn incense with a thoughtful gesture. Why spend money when you can have it for free?"
"But we have to queue up. Look how many people are queuing here."
"I'll take the platoon. You can go and rest over there."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel over just a few incense sticks, Xu Qingwu wanted to persuade them, but she didn't know what to do. She looked at Cen Xihuai as if for help.
Cen Xihuai said, "Qingwu and I are going to buy some incense, and we'll bring a few for you."
Before Jiang Jun could say anything, Yang Yu quickly said, "Okay, I'll transfer the money to Qingwu."
Cen Xihuai glanced at Jiang Jun and said calmly, "No need, just a small amount of money."
Yang Yu was a little angry, and Jiang Jun coaxed her kindly. When Cen Xihuai and Xu Qingwu came back after buying incense, they had reconciled as before.
Xu Qingwu handed each of them three incense sticks, and then they lined up to burn incense, while Cen Xihuai waited on the side.
Xu Qingwu knelt on the cushion with a very pious look.
She didn't ask for much, just praying for safety for herself, Cen Xihuai, her friends and her family.
This temple is famous for its consecrated eternal lamps for praying for blessings, and both Xu Qingwu and Yang Yu want to go there.
There are several price ranges for eternal lamps. Cen Xihuai went straight over and picked out the two most expensive ones, one for Xu Qingwu and one for Yang Yu.
Jiang Jun was unhappy and refused to let Yang Yu take it: "This one just looks nice, it doesn't have to be twice as expensive, right?"
Although Yang Yu felt the same way, she was still a little embarrassed and said to Cen Xihuai, "Boss Cen, how about I try something else?"
"You don't have to pay."
"It's still not good."
"If you mind, just transfer the money for the cheaper one to Qingwu."
The monks came over to operate. Xu Qingwu took Yang Yu's arm and told her not to think too much. They walked together to the offering location to fill in the information.
After this activity, the group went to the wishing tree, next to which was the wishing well.
There is a palm-sized red silk hanging on the wishing tree, there are many coins in the wishing well, and there is also a super big longevity turtle.
The temple has specially designated two locations and placed tables for tourists to write on red silk. You can choose to use a brush or a marker, but each person is limited to only one piece of red silk.
Yang Yu and Jiang Jun could not write calligraphy, so they went to the area with markers to queue up. Xu Qingwu and Cen Xihuai both knew how to write calligraphy, so they went to another area.
Not many people are used to using brushes, so there is no need to queue here. The two of them each took a piece of red silk and a brush.
Xu Qingwu's wish remains simple, it is just one: I wish my family and friends safety.
After writing the seven words, she went to see Cen Xihuai.
Unexpectedly, Cen Xihuai actually blocked her view and stopped her righteously: "Wife, please don't peek."
People are like this. When you ask her to watch, she doesn't want to watch it, but the more you don't let her watch, the more she wants to watch it.
Xu Qingwu's curiosity was aroused by him, and she spoke to him in a coquettish tone unconsciously: "Can you take a look at what's going on?"
It's just a wish, not something shameful.
Cen Xihuai's heart was as hard as a rock. No matter how she acted coquettishly or cutely, she wouldn't let him see it. Xu Qingwu pouted: "Husband, are you really so cruel?"
Cen Xihuai insisted: "It's no use calling me husband, you are not allowed to look."
Xu Qingwu: "Okay."
Xu Qingwu squatted down at the wishing well next to him to look at the longevity turtle, and stole a glance at Cen Xihuai's movements.
Cen Xihuai continued to write with his head down, his hanging hair swaying in the wind. His pen holding posture was very professional, and it was obvious that he had learned it before.
Xu Qingwu thought of the marriage certificate he had written before. He had a beautiful handwriting with flowing strokes.
Those who were queuing up on Yang Yu's side had finished writing and were hanging them on the tree, but Cen Xihuai hadn't finished yet. He didn't know what wish was so difficult to make.
Seeing him put down his pen, Xu Qingwu quietly walked around behind him and hugged his waist.
Cen Xihuai was stunned.
Xu Qingwu took the opportunity to pull out the red silk and shook it at him.
Seeing her triumphant look, Cen Xihuai felt a little helpless and a little amused.
Cen Xihuai did not use his usual running script, but regular script, writing down his wish stroke by stroke.
I wish Xu Qingwu: everything goes smoothly and all your wishes come true.
Every word he spoke, all he wished for and thought of was her.
There are a lot of strokes and he wrote it very neatly, no wonder it took so long.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Xu Qingwu felt a little hot in her eyes, and her voice was a little choked: "Cen Xihuai, why are you so nice to me?"
Cen Xihuai came over and patted her head gently: "You are my wife, who else can I treat well if I don't treat you well?"
Cen Xihuai took the red silk from her hand, then took hers, and asked her to go hang it on the tree together.
The wishes of the two people are floating in the wind.
Yang Yu came over with a few coins and asked Xu Qingwu: "Qingwu, I went to exchange some coins for making a wish in the wishing fountain. Do you want some?"
"I want a bit too much, I'll go and exchange it myself."
Xu Qingwu really wanted to make a wish, so she refused Yang Yu and went to the exchange office by herself.
She was afraid that one or two coins wouldn't work, so she generously changed them for a hundred coins at once and threw them all into the wishing well, just to make one wish.
The child nearby heard the sound of coins falling and said to his mother in surprise, "Mom, this sister is so rich!"
Xu Qingwu felt a little embarrassed and closed his eyes and made a wish devoutly.
It's still her simple style.
I hope Cen Xihuai is well and happy every day!
