Xu Yin came to the kitchen and felt a headache looking at the chicken, duck and fish in the basket.
Yu Yuanyuan and those people really don’t regard this place as a nunnery at all.
I promised to add eggs to everyone earlier because I thought some of the trousers were too weak and I was worried that they wouldn’t be able to survive without some nutritional supplements.
“Pan’er.” She called Xu Pan’er to discuss, “How do you think we can deal with these things?”
"Go to the villagers down the mountain to exchange them!" Xu Pan'er thought for a while and said, "I heard from Meihua that these are gifts from pilgrims. They want to experience the excitement of drinking wine and eating meat in the Buddhist holy land. I just don't know if the villagers at the foot of the mountain are. Know…”
Xu Yin nodded with a dull face: Yu Yuanyuan still wanted to show off, and there was no way to send the nun down the mountain to buy big fish and meat in an dignified way.
"Ignore these for now, I'll find a way to find someone to replace them." She planned to put these into the system warehouse in the dead of night, and then exchange them for some rice, flour, grains and oil. "Tonight we will have thick porridge, and each of us will add a poached egg."
“Can eggs be eaten?” Xu Paner hesitated, “Would it be disrespectful to Buddha?”
“No.” Xu Yin said, “From now on, we will have a pure vegetarian diet on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and each person can eat one egg a day.”
Many temples in later generations allowed eating eggs and drinking milk, which was not considered breaking the precepts.
That night, the remaining nuns each received a bowl of thick white rice porridge, a small plate of pickles, and a golden fried poached egg.
The nuns in the trousers looked like they were enjoying their meal, but the few sisters had never had such a shabby dinner since they first received the pilgrims. I immediately wanted to put down my chopsticks.
Xu Yin seemed to have remembered something, put down her chopsticks and said, "While I was lighting the fire, I thought about a few rules of the nunnery. Please listen and see if there is anything you want to add. Rule 1: abide by the rules and laws, and treat the nunnery as your home; Article 2: Observe the rules and precepts, and treat everyone equally; Article 3: Avoid greed, anger, and ignorance, and always have the heart of Buddha; Article 4... Oh, I only think of these for now, you can also add to it, I will copy it and hang it on the scroll later Get up, I hope everyone will refer to the nunnery rules before doing anything, and examine themselves three times every day..."
…”
When the senior sisters heard this, they didn’t mention them by name, but they were not mentioned in any of them.
With a stern expression, he clenched his chopsticks tightly, neither putting them down nor eating them.
Xu Yin continued: "I also drafted a work and rest schedule to give you a rough outline."
Xu Yin made some adjustments according to the work and rest system implemented by Master Minghui at that time. For example, the time for getting up early was extended from 4:30 to 5:00, and the time for resting in the evening was advanced from 10:00 to 8:30. Many children who are still half-grown cannot grow taller due to lack of sleep, and their bodies are also weak.
In addition, she reduced the time for meditation, listening to sutras, and chanting Buddhist scriptures, and added an hour and a half of morning exercise, intending to teach them a set of self-defense techniques.
There are no men in the nunnery. Whether it is going to the city to do shopping, going down the mountain to beg for alms, or performing religious services, all the nuns have to do it, so that everyone has the ability to protect themselves.
The two hours of meditation before dinner were modified into medicine stones.
Since it is a Medicine Master Temple and it is dedicated to Medicine Master Tathagata, you must know some knowledge about Chinese herbal medicine.
Although this era is not very friendly to Chinese medicine, there are many skills that are not overwhelming. Besides, it is difficult to buy medicine at the moment, so it is good to be self-sufficient.
Everyone nodded unanimously. The sisters and aunts helplessly agreed, but the nuns in the trousers were full of joy.
In the past, they had to get up before four o'clock and were ordered by the masters and aunts to do various tasks. Now the host has said that everyone should do it individually, all living beings are equal, no one is nobler than anyone else, and even if they wash their faces and comb their hair, they will order tea. Pour water and serve towels? Who can spoil them? It’s not a feudal society!
They can feel their blood boiling with excitement!
From now on, they no longer have to serve the sisters like maids. They only need to get up and go to school early according to the schedule. Cleaning is also based on the rotation schedule, and everyone's turn is fair. Today you I pour the night incense, I sweep the courtyard, and she cleans the doors and windows. Tomorrow, I may pour the night incense, you clean the doors and windows, and she sweeps the courtyard... No one should dislike anyone, and no one needs to think that the work they are assigned is easy or hard. One month When it comes down to it, the number of turns is the same. The host takes care of the extra turns.
In this way, they can sleep a little longer than before, and they don't have to wait for the sister-in-law very late at night. When the drum sounds at half past eight, they can go back to their dormitory to rest.
The thought of being able to learn boxing skills and herbal medicine knowledge from the host made me want to pinch myself to see if I was dreaming.
That night, Zhao Meihua and other trousers-wearing nuns fell asleep sweetly with relaxed smiles.
No matter how dissatisfied the sisters were, they had to abide by it as long as they wanted to live in the nunnery. It was not that they had not thought of protesting, they even secretly gathered together to make a plan. They wanted to overthrow her like the female devil overthrew Senior Sister Yu, but when they thought of the female devil, That terrifying force value had to cease.
In the dead of night, only Xu Yin was still awake.
She has two more things to do in the evening:
First put away the illegal chicken, duck, and fish in the kitchen, and replace them with a batch of rice, flour, grain, and oil.
Rice is packed in sacks, and oil is packed in jars.
Then he changed into a set of men's clothes, activated the skills of [Magic Makeup] and [Universal Voice Actor], and gave himself a businessman look. Taking advantage of the dark night and high wind, he tapped his toes and used Qinggong to go down the mountain and into the city. .
She wanted to know about the current situation.
Haicheng in the ninth year of the Republic of China seemed to be divided into two parts by an invisible curtain—
On the banks of the Huangpu River in the gentle night breeze, there is the luxuriant Shili Foreign Market, where the light and shadow are blurred and the music is wafting, just like the enchanted Oriental Paris. In the splendid song and dance hall, which is filled with music and singing every night, charming ladies with graceful figures in cheongsam and well-dressed rich kids are gliding on the dance floor, occasionally chatting and laughing.
In the dark and narrow civilian alleys, some people are enduring physical pain because they cannot buy medicine, some are looking at the exposed rice vat and worrying about tomorrow's livelihood, and some are counting the debts owed by the dim kerosene lamp. Some people rolled up their sleeves and wiped sweat while still pulling a yellow croaker cart by the Huangpu River...
All kinds of things in the world are happening in the same city.
Xu Yin walked through the streets and alleys with mixed feelings in her heart.
She used to feel that each mission world was just a story or a novel made up by the author. When completing missions, she would not pay too much attention to people or groups that had little to do with her, and subconsciously regarded them as NPC.
However, at this moment, she suddenly realized that while she was trying to complete the task and survive this life smoothly, these people were also trying to survive.
In their eyes, this is their only life, a life in which they have to struggle to survive and are unwilling to give up no matter how difficult it is.
Xu Yinchu stood in a daze on the cross street for a while, until a seven or eight-year-old child stood in front of her and asked in a timid voice: "First, sir, do you want to buy a newspaper?" (End of this chapter)
