Chapter 2 The first towel

There are many things with a long history in the room of Jiechen and Jiexu. For example, the table of Jiechen has a history of several decades. Category.There is also a very dilapidated cabinet, the pattern has been blurred, but its exquisite appearance can be vaguely recognized, and it is said to be an object of the Republic of China period. Of course, there is one more thing that should not be ignored, and that is the towel for quitting arrogance.Jie Ao has been using this towel since he was a child. Although the age of the towel is not as good as those of the desks and cabinets, the things that are used every day naturally break down quickly, so it looks very historical.

At first, that towel was used to wash my face.But after using it for a long time, the fluff on the towel gradually fell off, and the color became whiter and whiter after washing, and finally a hole was broken. Although it was broken, Jie Ao was not willing to throw it away, but turned the towel into a foot cloth.But the hole grew very fast, starting from a small hole, and finally turned into a big hole. This towel was hanging on the shelf. When Jie Ao noticed it, he thought it was ugly, and thought of changing it, but he would forget it every time he went to town. Later, a pilgrim who was familiar with the monks in the temple came to visit.He was very curious about the monk's life and asked to visit the monk's residence.Jie Anger and Jie Ao invited him into the house.The pilgrims walked around the room, expecting to find something special, such as a tea table for discussing Taoism or elegant calligraphy and paintings.But Jie Chen's room is very ordinary, there are a lot of things piled up, the only painting on the wall is also forcibly pasted in Jie Chen's room after Jie Chen painted it.

The benefactor was a little disappointed in the end, so Jie An had no choice but to comfort the benefactor and said: "The rooms of young monks are always a little different from the rooms of eminent monks. If everyone has the realm of eminent monks, then eminent monks will not be rare, right?" Finally, the benefactor fixed his eyes on the towel.He said: "Masters are still using such worn-out towels. They really deserve to be practitioners. Why don't you take a few photos and put them on the Internet, maybe it will touch many netizens." Jie Chen hastily stopped the donor from taking pictures, it would be too embarrassing if such photos were actually posted on the Internet.In the end, the benefactor left angrily.

After that time, Jie Ao made up his mind to change the towel as soon as possible.When he went to the town again, in order to prevent himself from forgetting, he specially wrote the word "towel" on the palm of his hand. Jie Ao returned to the temple that day and brought back two towels.Jie Chen was a little surprised, I don't know why Jie Ao bought two towels.Jie Chen opened the towel and found that the two towels were exactly the same, with the same color and pattern.Jieao explained: "It happened that there was a promotion in the store, buy one and get one free, but it happened that there were no different colors, so I had to choose the same color in the end."

Jie Ao also said to Jie Chen: "Anyway, I bought two, why don't you have one for each person, anyway, your face towels are quite old." At that moment, Jie Chen felt a little touched in his heart.But soon, the rationality of refraining from anger overcame the emotion.On weekdays, Jieao would feel sleepy on time after nine o'clock in the evening, often half-closed his eyes to wash up.Usually, when Jie Chen goes to bed later, he finds that his towel has been used.It is not impossible to use the same style of towel as Jieao, but the risk index of the same style of Jieao's foot towel and Jiechen face towel is relatively high.

In the end, Jieao had no choice but to put away the towel.For a while, Jie Ao had been brooding over this matter, and when he washed his feet, he would emphasize, "Actually, I don't often take the wrong ones." That towel was stuffed in the box by Jie Ao, and he didn't remember it until Jie Chi's towel was torn. When Jie Ao took out this towel and gave it to Jie Chi, Jie An glanced at it casually, and found that this towel that had been hidden in the box for a long time was quite different from the towel that Jie Ao hung on the shelf.The towels on the shelf have lost their clear patterns and bright colors, but the towel in the box is still brand new.In the days when the towel was hanging on the rack, Jiechen never felt its fading and changing.

Perhaps many things in this world are like this. In the unconscious changes, even if the initial white becomes the final black, there is no trace left.
