Chapter 10: Eating meat in the Buddhist Pure Land is not good
Tired of falling, Lu Mingzhu sat next to Liu and pestered her, "Mom, tell Dad, go tell Dad, I don't want to be a concubine's daughter, I want to be a legitimate daughter. Dad likes you so much, he will definitely agree if you ask him."
Liu looked at Lu Mingzhu with a tense face, the anger in her chest was about to burst out from her throat. She gritted her teeth fiercely, pinched Lu Mingzhu's shoulders and said in a stern tone: "The old lady is clearly forcing your father. If I don't back down now, your father will only hate me. By then, will there be a place for us mother and daughter in this mansion?"
Lu Mingzhu couldn't believe it: "How is it possible..."
"If your father doesn't compromise with the old lady and forces her to become a nun, he will be charged with being unfilial and might even lose his position." At this point, Liu lowered her voice and moved closer to Lu Mingzhu: "After all these years of fighting, are we going to end up with nothing?"
Liu's cold voice pierced into Lu Mingzhu's heart like an ice thorn, and the emotions that had been clamoring just now were instantly frozen.
Although the Lu family is not wealthy, her father is the prefect, so she is a daughter of an official family.
If her father had not been an official, she would have been an ordinary citizen and would not have been able to live such a life of luxury.
She doesn't want to live a hard life.
Thinking of this, Lu Mingzhu was choked and speechless.
Seeing Lu Mingzhu calm down, Liu tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, "Although mother has taken a step back, your father feels guilty towards us. With your father's love and guilt, the power of the Lu family will fall firmly into my hands. Even if you are not a legitimate daughter, mother will give you the best."
Lu Mingzhu snorted coldly. If her mother could become the wife of the Lu family, not only would she be able to give her the best, but her status would also become more noble. It was all the fault of that damn old woman.
"The old lady has disliked us ever since we entered the mansion, and now she has become a stumbling block. She is so old but still likes to meddle in this and that. Why doesn't she just die?" Lu Mingzhu cursed angrily.
Liu patted Lu Mingzhu's hand soothingly. Lu Mingzhu, who was furious, did not notice the viciousness and murderous intent hidden in Liu's eyes.
Mingzhu was right. Now that the old woman was dead, no one could stop the master from making her his legal wife.
As soon as she gains control of the household and establishes herself in the mansion, I will kill her first.
Lu Xiang lay lazily in the yard, covering his forehead with one hand as he looked at the setting sun in the sky. Large patches of clouds covered the sky like fire, which was breathtakingly beautiful.
"Oh, my mouth is so bland, I really want to eat meat."
No matter how delicious the vegetarian food is, she will get tired of it after eating it for a few days in a row.
In his previous life, Lu Xiang would not have thought vegetarian food was bland, but after experiencing the days of imprisonment, Lu Xiang in this life had a devilish obsession with delicious food, especially meat.
"Miss, Miss..." Yun Zha shouted while running, panting.
Lu Xiang responded weakly: "Hmm..."
"I saw it."
Lu Xiang asked: "What did you see?"
"Little monk." Yun Zhe bent down and panted for a few times, then continued, "I saw two little monks burying a rabbit in the back mountain, and chanting sutras for it. Miss, how do you know such a strange thing?"
This little bear girl, can you please finish what you want to say at once?
Lu Xiang's body trembled, and he immediately stood up from the recliner, his eyes emitting a wolf-like green light: "Your young lady is very good at fortune-telling. Quick, bring the fire starter and call Wu Yue to follow me."
God heard her voice so quickly, he is even closer to her than her own father.
Yun Zhe: “…”
Lu Xiang quickly went back to the house and got a paper bag. When he came out, he saw Yun Zha still standing there. He urged, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Go call Wu Yue."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yue walked into the yard carrying a food box. "The old lady said she wanted to discuss Zen with the master, so the young lady can eat dinner by herself... Were you looking for me just now?"
We already have meat, why eat vegetarian food?
That’s right, the little rabbit that was buried by the little monk and was chanted with sutras to pray for his soul to be reborn will soon become her dinner.
It's not that she could tell fortunes, but she had seen it in her previous life when she lived in Hua'an Temple. The young monks not only buried rabbits, but also any living creatures that died in the back mountain that they could see, they would be buried in the soil and then pray for their souls to be reborn.
Yunzha and Wuyue, who were confused, were dragged to the back mountain by Lu Xiang.
"What is the young lady doing in the back mountain?" Wu Yue asked.
Yunzhe shook his head, indicating that he was also confused: "The young lady asked me to go to the back mountain when I am free these days. If I see any little monks, I should come back and tell her. Oh, yes, the point is to see if they will chant sutras to help something pass away."
I just want to ask you if it’s weird or not.
Wu Yue stared, feeling that his brain was not enough.
However, they soon understood Lu Xiang's purpose and witnessed her "cruelness".
At the place Yun Zha pointed to, Lu Xiang quickly dug out the rabbit buried in the soil, then ran to the ditch nearby, pulled out a dagger from his boots, and skinned and emptied the rabbit's belly without blinking.
Yun Zhe: “…”
Wu Yue: “…”
Ugh!!!
The two poor maids were frightened by Lu Xiang's brutal behavior and shivered huddled together like two little white flowers torn by a strong wind.
This Hua'an Temple is poisonous, so send back their delicate and sweet young ladies.
Lu Xiang felt the silence behind him. He turned around and saw the expressions of his two maids as if they had seen a ghost. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Don't be in a daze, both of you. Light the firewood."
"Oh... okay..." Yunzha and Wuyue responded blankly, and hurriedly picked up firewood and lit a fire.
In less than a cup of tea, Lu Xiang had cleaned the rabbit, skewered it from the feet to the top with a branch, and then roasted it over the fire.
The sky was dark and grey, and everything was quiet. Only the crackling sound of the fire in front of them and the aroma of meat could be heard.
Yun Zha looked at the greasy rabbit in front of him, swallowed, and struggled to speak: "Miss, this is a pure land of Buddhism, it's not okay for us to eat meat, right?" This rabbit is so delicious.
"Well, Buddha will blame us." Wu Yue nodded in agreement.
The process of killing a rabbit is brutal, but the roasted rabbit looks delicious.
"The Buddha is very busy and doesn't have the time to care where we eat meat." Lu Xiang said, taking out a paper bag from her arms and sprinkling the salt and pepper on the rabbit. The fragrance instantly became stronger. She turned over and looked at the two people in front of her whose eyes were almost glued to the rabbit and said, "Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but remain in the Buddha's heart. As a rabbit that unfortunately died young, my stomach is its best destination. The Buddha will understand. Come, eat the legs."
Miss, where is your face?
However, even though the two of them complained in their hearts, their hands were not slow at all in catching the rabbit's leg.
Looking at Yunzha and Wuyue eating one leg each with a satisfied look on their faces, Lu Xiang smiled sweetly, and then the rest of the rabbit went into her stomach.
Fortunately, he is one of our own, otherwise she wouldn't be willing to share even a single hair with him.
