Chapter 16 Fifteenth broken pants

Once, two female benefactors came to the temple. Their appearances were very similar. Judging from their age, they should be a pair of mother and daughter.But the expressions of the two were extremely unnatural. After entering the temple, they didn't communicate once. They just worshiped Buddha in the Buddhist hall one after the other.The two of them will also quickly avoid when they make eye contact, and it seems that there should be some gaps. After a while, Jie An discovered that the older female benefactor was greeting the masters, and it turned out to be a benefactor that the masters were familiar with.The female benefactor confided her thoughts to the master, Jie Chen was right in her guess—the two benefactors were indeed mother and daughter, and they were indeed arguing.

The female benefactor said that her daughter started working this year and received her first salary not long ago. She used the salary to buy some supplies for her parents and a pair of jeans for herself. It's funny to say, the fashion at the foot of the mountain is very strange. On weekdays, the disciples of Jie Crazy are running around in ragged clothes. When the foreign pilgrims see it, they say that this little monk is quite pitiful, but many young benefactors buy new jeans with a few Hole. The jeans that the benefactor’s daughter bought were trendy jeans with holes in them. When the benefactor saw her daughter’s pants, she thought that her daughter had accidentally torn them, and she didn’t respond immediately.In the evening, after her daughter had gone to bed, the benefactor spent the whole night mending the hole.

The benefactor worked very hard on mending. In order to reduce the traces of mending, she deliberately drew a lot of silk threads of similar colors from her daughter's old trousers. The next morning, the benefactor handed over the repaired trousers to her daughter. As a result, the mother and daughter had a quarrel over it.The daughter blamed the mother for making a decision without her consent, and the mother's heartache was that the daughter did not understand the heart of sewing under the lamp last night. After the benefactor left, Master Zhiyuan asked Jie An to invite the benefactor's daughter over.When Jie Chen was cleaning the glass near the door, he saw the daughter of the benefactor sitting in front of the master with her head bowed. The master was talking to her with a smile. She listened quietly and nodded silently after a long time.

After a while, Jie An saw the mother and daughter sitting side by side on the stone bench behind the monastery, their eyes seemed to be red. Jie Chen didn't know what story Master Zhiyuan told. In the end, the mother and daughter eliminated the barrier between each other. Thinking about refraining from anger: In fact, the most forgiving thing in this world is the unintentional mistakes committed by those who love us. That afternoon, the mother and daughter walked down the mountain arm in arm, very intimate, and there seemed to be no grudges anymore. The daughter of the benefactor suddenly turned around and waved goodbye to Jie An, who hurriedly clasped his hands together in return.Jie Chen found that she did not know when she changed into a pair of jeans, which could be seen as a pair of mended pants.It turned out that the female benefactor's workmanship was not very good. From a distance, you can still see the clear color difference on the trousers, but the stitched traces look like a heart.
