Meishan Su family, Su Yun is the most virtuous

Chapter 5 I'm Not a Rude Person

Su Shi hurriedly said, "Su Yun, don't act rashly!"

Su Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry, uncle. I am not a rude person and will not offend the master."

The middle-aged monk wanted to go over to stop Su Yun, but was forced back by Su Yun's fierce look.

Su Yun half supported and half forced the old monk to the plum tree in the yard.

The old monk was of average stature, but Su Yun was very tall, and holding the old monk in his arms was like holding a little bird in his arms.

The old monk cried out, "What is this? What is this? This is a sin!
Young man, you will suffer retribution for not respecting the Buddha!"

Su Yun chuckled and said, "You old monk, you are born with a snobbish look. What about the Buddha? If the Buddha knew you were like this, he would slap you to death!"

The old monk put his hands together and said repeatedly: "Amitabha, Amitabha! What a sin, what a sin, I must have done something wrong to let this naughty boy bully me, Amitabha, Amitabha!"

Su Yun smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Master, don't act like that. Your chance to become successful and wealthy has come."

The old monk sighed and said, "As a monk, I don't want to become rich and successful. You are really talking nonsense, young donor."

Su Yun laughed and said, "My uncle is Su Shi from Meishan, a banished immortal from the Song Dynasty. Even if you are an old monk, you should know this, right?"

The old monk was startled and asked, "Su Zizhan? Didn't he commit a crime? Why is he out?"

Su Yun nodded and said, "The Censorate has already investigated and found him innocent. He is going to take up his post there. I don't need to tell you more about this. Do you know where your opportunity lies?"

The old monk smiled bitterly and said, "Little donor, please don't tease me. Everyone knows that the new and old parties in the court are in serious conflict. My temple is small, so I'd better not get involved. Little donor, please let me go."

Su Yun smiled and said, "You old monk, your six senses are really not pure. Look at you, don't you understand it very clearly?"

The old monk sighed and said, "My temple is near the capital, and it is located in a strategic location. Many officials come and go. If I didn't know anything, this small temple would have disappeared long ago. It's not my fault."

Su Yun nodded and said, "Then I won't pursue your crime. I'll just tell you where the opportunity is..."

The old monk was a little confused: Sin, what sin?
"...My uncle is the most famous literary master in the world. If you treat him well, he will be happy and leave you a piece of calligraphy. Then you can spread the word that Su Xian has stayed here and is very satisfied with your temple. Then your temple will be very popular and visitors will flock to it."

The old monk's eyes lit up, then he shook his head and said, "This is not a place for business, why do you want so many customers?

Moreover, your uncle offended the New Party, and now the New Party is in power. If I dare to spread the news, my small temple will be removed from the register in a few days."

Su Yun said angrily, "What do you know about politics, old monk? My uncle is on a mission outside the capital now, so he will never have a chance to come back?
You have to know how to invest. It's just a sumptuous vegetarian meal. It won't cost you your life. Can't you keep the calligraphy if you get it?

When my uncle is reinstated, you can publicize it. Wouldn't that be a great opportunity?"

At this point, Su Yun smiled coldly and said: "You rejected my uncle today. When my uncle is reinstated, won't he remember what happened today? At that time, I can write a note and revoke the name of your temple!" The old monk was shocked. He might not be tempted by the illusory wealth, but he could not afford to be careless if there was a disaster.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Little donor, I'm really scared of you. All right, all right, I'll treat you well, little donor...speak a few nice words to donor Su, don't bear a grudge against my little temple."

Su Yun nodded and looked at the plum blossoms planted in the temple with his hands behind his back.

The plum blossoms were still bare, but Su Yun was enjoying it as if he was looking at a peerless beauty.

The old monk sighed secretly, quietly took out a silver ingot from his sleeve, and calmly put it into Su Yun's hand.

Su Yun quietly estimated the weight of the silver ingot, snorted and refused to take it.

The old monk gritted his teeth, took out a small gold ingot, and stuffed it in along with the silver ingot.

Su Yun saw a streak of golden color and estimated its weight. He immediately smiled happily. He flipped his palm and the yellow and white thing disappeared immediately.

Then he smiled and said to the old monk: "Master, your Buddhist teachings are profound. Su Yun was greatly shocked today. However, Yun is not very knowledgeable, so please ask my uncle to communicate with the master."

The old monk watched Su Yun walk out nimbly, sighed, and then rubbed his face. Suddenly, the bitterness on his face disappeared, replaced by a look of surprise.

The old monk stumbled out, repeating in his mouth: "It turns out that Su Xian has come, it turns out that Su Xian has come, I am so blind, the banished immortal from heaven has come to visit my humble temple, it brings honor to my humble temple! Hahaha!"

The old monk changed his previous cold attitude and welcomed the stunned Su Shi warmly. He immediately arranged a clean room for him to stay in. Soon, hot vegetarian meals were served on the table.

After the meal, he arranged a tea room for Su Shi to meditate. When he heard that Su Shi wanted to read the Buddhist scriptures, he brought all the Buddhist scriptures from his collection over, and ran around to ask about his well-being. He was completely a different person from before.

Su Mai stared at the old monk, who was arrogant at first but respectful later, and whispered to Su Yun, "What's wrong with this old monk? Why did he suddenly become so enthusiastic? Brother Yun, didn't you hit him?"

Su Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Brother, this master is so old, how can I still beat him? If I punch him, I will be killed.

I just told him about my uncle's identity. My uncle is famous all over the world. Who doesn't admire my uncle? His previous refusal was just because my uncle didn't make his name known to him. "

Su Mai was skeptical and felt that things were not that simple. However, it was not a good idea to ask too many questions here and he could only ask later.

Su Yun was also very rude in the temple. He ordered the little monk around. He asked him to make thatch for Su Shi's bed, change his quilt, light the charcoal stove for heating, and then ask him to paste window paper to keep out the cold.

The young monk was so angry about being ordered around that he complained to the old monk, "Master, you have invited a few Bodhisattvas to worship, right?"

The old monk was furious when he heard this: "What do you know? I am doing this for your own good. Mr. Su may be reinstated in the future. Once he is reinstated, our temple will have a chance to flourish! Do you understand?"
