Yi Yami and another man brought the old woman and another man to a teahouse.
Yi Yami poured tea for the old woman and said, "Grandma, I think your fate is miserable or not, it depends on many aspects. Although the Taoist priest said to listen to us two, we can't guarantee that we can completely enlighten you!"
The old woman lowered her head when she heard that, but after thinking about it, she raised her head again and said, "It's okay. I just want an explanation."
Yi Yami nodded and said softly, "Grandma, do you know? Everyone is born with a time, a month, and a year, right?"
"Yes, I know that." The old woman nodded.
"Yes, this is the identity code for each of us." Yiyami said softly.
"Every different code, different month, different time, even if the person is born on the same day, as long as the time is different, the things that this person may encounter in his life, fame, fortune, misfortune, are all different." Yiyami said, holding her hand.
"Grandma said that you had a miserable life. As soon as you were born, your family sold you for a liter of rice. Let me tell you a story. There was a very poor family. The mother was pregnant, but the mother was worried about raising the child and keeping him alive, so she thought about aborting the baby." Yiyami's eyes were a little moist as she spoke.
The old woman also listened and asked, "What happened next?"
"Later, due to various reasons, I still didn't abort the baby. I gave birth to the baby anyway," said Yiyami.
"Huh..." The old woman breathed a sigh of relief.
"So you see, your family is poor. Although they sold you after you were born, which is wrong of them, but you see, this is their problem, not your problem. The fact that you were able to be born is already a victory! Think about it, there are so many children. Some of them may not be able to give birth halfway because they are really poor, or there are also many who want a boy and abort the girl. There are many miserable people in this world, and each miserable person has a different miserable fate. Along the way, I have seen many miserable people and things, and I am also very heartbroken. I am not saying that you don't have a miserable life, but if that is the case, we must learn to comfort ourselves and not always be immersed in the pain of the past." Yi Yami's words were softly but forcefully spoken.
"So, it's their fault, not mine?" the old woman grasped the point.
"Yes, it's their fault, not yours. Since it's their fault, it's not your fault. If you take other people's mistakes on yourself, don't you think you will be very tired and painful?" Yiyami coaxed.
The old woman nodded.
Gu Beijian refilled Yi Yami's tea and refilled the tea for both of them.
Yi Yami took a sip of tea.
She continued, "Later, you were sold to that family as a child bride and gave birth to a child. Although your husband died early, you did not abandon your daughter. Instead, you remarried with your daughter. In my opinion, you are miserable, but you are really amazing. Can you imagine how many people who encountered such a thing would either run away or die because they couldn't get over it. In my eyes, you are a female warrior who encountered hardships but would not bow her head easily. Have you heard of Mulan? Mu Guiying? They are all famous heroines. In my eyes, you are the same as them. You are unwilling to surrender easily. You continue to fight against fate and fight to the end!" Yiyami became more and more excited as she spoke.
The old woman felt relieved after hearing this, but she couldn't help but burst into tears. "I've already said that I have a hard life. If I were really as good as you say, I wouldn't have lived such a miserable life later!"
"Okay, okay, don't cry, listen to me, you must have had a wonderful time after remarrying. In this world, eight out of ten things are not satisfactory, and one is extremely unsatisfactory. The only thing we can do is to find sugar in the glass shards. I believe that the death of your son has hit you hard, but you also have to change your mind and think about it. If he is not happy in this world, as a mother, let him go, and you can't keep him there. I know that saying that it is their problem and not your problem will not solve your pain. I only hope that after you go back today, you can smile more. The past cannot be taken back, and we can only live in the present. I think your life will be so bitter in the beginning, but it will be very sweet in the end. As the old saying goes, after suffering comes happiness. What do you think?" Yiyami patted the old woman's shoulder gently and let her cry.
The old woman cried for a long time and her voice became hoarse.
Yi Yami and Gu Beijian handed over cups of water.
The old woman drank the water.
He placed a purple stone around his neck on the table and said, "This is the stone my biological mother gave me, and the rope my foster mother gave me. I leave it here today."
Yi Yami helped her up and said, "Grandma, are you feeling better?"
"After crying, I feel better, but the pain is still there." The old woman forced a smile.
"Then shall we take you back?" Yiyami asked softly.
"No need. I've kept you two here for a long time. You must have more important things to do. Don't waste your time here with me." The old woman looked at their clothes and spoke.
"It's okay, it's okay, let us take you back." Yiyami insisted on taking you back.
Gu Beijian pulled her, Yi Yami looked at him and sighed in her heart.
He took out a palm-sized gold nugget from the small world and stuffed it into the old woman's sleeve when she wasn't paying attention.
The old woman and the other man walked away silently.
Gu Beijian and Yi Yami were holding the purple stone and were about to go to the westernmost door to open it.
As they were walking, a person who looked like a nun passed by them.
They walked a few steps, and Yi Yami suddenly stopped and turned around, "It's that old lady..."
Gu Beijian looked back and saw the hunched back of the bhikkhuni, lonely and miserable...
"Let's go." Gu Beijian held Yi Yami's hand and rushed towards the door.
The purple stone melted into the door, and the two people were sucked out again.
