Chapter 215 The Cold Buddhist Girl and the Sinister Young City Lord 11
After the Jiang couple found out the truth, they hurried to get Cha Jiu back.
At this time, Shen Suyuan was helping Cha Jiu get on the carriage, preparing to return to Lianhua Temple.
Madam Jiang's steps were unsteady, her face was covered with tears, and she hurriedly caught up with him, supported by her maid: "Yu'er! Wait!"
Cha Jiu stopped what he was doing, turned around and looked at her, his expression calm.
"What else do you want, benefactor?"
Seeing her cold attitude, Mrs. Jiang remembered how she always hugged her legs when she was a child, tilted her jade-like face and said "Mommy, hug me", and her heart was broken.
"What happened in the past was all the fault of mother and father. We were ignorant of people and believed the words of villains, which is why we were alienated from you. Now we all know our mistakes. Yu'er, please come home."
After experiencing these blows one after another, Mr. Jiang's hair turned white and he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
He also tried to persuade her: "Yes, Yu'er, even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. The blood ties between relatives cannot be severed. You should stay, and our family of three will be reunited."
Shen Qi on the side sneered and said, "When you used money to buy off the blood relationship and even used that evil person to suppress Master Yu Jing, you didn't mention that the blood relationship cannot be severed."
Shen Suyuan said to Cha Jiu indifferently: "Get in the car and ignore them."
The Jiang couple were completely panicked.
Madam Jiang took out a jade ring worn by a child and stuffed it into Cha Jiu's hand without caring about anything, saying with tears in her eyes:
"This is the peace locket I prayed for two months before you were born. I prayed to the Buddha every day for your safe birth and a smooth life. My son, mother loved you too!"
Cha Jiu lowered his eyes and looked at the peace locket, a look of loneliness flashing across his eyes.
However, Shen Suyuan, who had been paying attention to her, noticed it.
Yes, no matter how open-minded and untainted by the mundane world one is, he was born from his mother's arms. How could he not yearn for the care of his relatives and not feel sad for being ignored and abandoned?
Shen Suyuan held Cha Jiu's hand tightly, his eyes turned, and his sharp gaze fell on the Jiang couple.
Those terrifying eyes were like an enraged beast, with blood mixed in the whites of his eyes.
The couple took a few steps back in fear.
"Have you said enough?" Shen Suyuan stared at the two of them coldly.
"You were infertile and treated your daughter like an object, sending her to a nunnery or to someone who would kill you. Now that you know her good qualities, you want to take her back with a loving look on your face."
There was contempt in his eyes and his thin lips taunted: "If Jiang Yu is really the reincarnation of Buddha Lotus, do you think you are worthy of being related to her?"
"You want her?" Shen Suyuan's eyes were gloomy, and murderous intent emerged: "Then you have to ask the knife in my hand."
Finally, his big hand fell on the sword at his waist, as if he was so angry at this shameless couple that he was dizzy and ready to draw his sword and chop them at any time.
Cha Jiu stretched out her slightly warm hand, pressed it on the back of his hand, and shook her head at him.
"Donor Jiang." Cha Jiu turned his gaze towards Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, and said calmly, "The relationship between you and me is shallow to begin with, so I can't blame anyone else."
"Although Xu Banxian is an evil person, if you two are upright and have no intention of harming others or doing anything improper, you will naturally not attract such people around you."
Mr. Jiang's eyes wandered, as if he was feeling guilty.
Cha Jiu's words really hit a sore spot for him.
There are many more famous masters in and outside Hengzhou, but why did the Jiang family use Xu Banxian for so many years?
That's because only Xu Banxian can use some unconventional methods to help Mr. Jiang frame his business rivals and make the Jiang family earn more.
However, he did not expect that these methods of harming others would turn around and harm Mr. Jiang himself.
Mrs. Jiang didn't know about the business, she just cried in panic: "Yuer, are you really so heartless?"
At this moment, a beggar woman in rags, holding a baby in her arms, ran over in despair and knelt down in front of Cha Jiu.
"Master, please save my child!" The woman burst into tears. The poor child in her arms was less than one year old, but he was infected with smallpox and had a high fever.
When he saw it was smallpox, Shen Suyuan quickly put Cha Jiu behind him.
In this era, smallpox was still an incurable disease, and many sick children could only rely on survival, luck, or the mercy of the illusory gods and Buddhas.
So did this woman.
She was a beggar and had little money. The kind doctor gave her medicine, but the child's condition did not improve.
The monk in the temple gave her two copper coins and said, "If someone is willing to take this copper coin and give his or her own blessing to your child, then this person will be the one who can save the child."
Unfortunately, the woman walked back to the city from the temple and asked hundreds of people along the way, but no one was willing to take the copper money.
After all, who would be willing to exchange their blessings, and possibly even their life, for a stranger for two copper coins?
Therefore, even though the woman came to Cha Jiu for help, she knew that her hope was slim.
"I had smallpox when I was a child, so there's no need to be too scared." Cha Jiu said to Shen Suyuan.
Having said that, she stepped past his obstruction, came to the woman and took the copper money.
The woman was stunned.
Others were also shocked.
Looking at the baby in the woman's arms, whose face was flushed and whose breathing was weak, Cha Jiu's eyes were full of pity, as if stained with wet mist.
She leaned down, closed her pure eyes, and placed her forehead against the baby's burning face. She said slowly, "We are destined to be together. Now I will pass on my blessings to you. I hope you can survive this disaster and live a healthy life."
Her tone was calm and compassionate, like the sound of a deity or Buddha descending to earth to save the world.
The woman could no longer hold back her tears. She trembled and sobbed, choking with sobs.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you..." She didn't know what else to say and could only kowtow to Cha Jiu to express her gratitude.
It turns out that there really are incarnations of gods and Buddhas in this world!
A breeze blew by, and the child in the woman's arms seemed to have less fever, and his pale face looked more rosy.
Mrs. Jiang staggered when she saw this scene.
Regret, guilt, jealousy, these emotions filled her heart.
The daughter was willing to share her blessings even with strangers, but was so cold and indifferent to her biological parents. It was obvious how deeply they had hurt her heart!
Mr. Jiang supported his wife and watched Cha Jiu and Shen Suyuan get on the carriage, then left without looking back.
This time, they knew there was no going back.
It's too late to undo what's done.
…
The carriage drove slowly towards the city gate.
Shen Suyuan spoke up to break the silence: "Okay, don't be sad. It's a blessing for you to break off relations with such a family member."
Cha Jiu raised her eyes and said, "I'm not sad. In fact, I knew this would happen a long time ago."
Shen Suyuan looked at her calm and peaceful face. As expected, she was still pure and untainted by the world.
He sneered: "Is it true that in this world, there is nothing that can arouse your earthly desires?"
Cha Jiu looked at him blankly: "What?"
"Nothing." Shen Suyuan thought her innocent look was boring, so he changed the subject: "Now that you have severed your relationship with the Jiang family, have you completely ended your worldly ties and are you ready to shave your head and become a bald nun?"
To his surprise, Cha Jiu actually shook his head.
She said seriously, "I have calculated that the fate that prevented me from becoming a monk and serving Buddha was not my relationship with the Jiang family."
Shen Suyuan was stunned and couldn't help asking: "If it's not a relationship, then what is it?"
