Pastoral Master

Chapter 400 Extra Story (Xi Ling Baihan Chapter)
Ten taels of silver?I was very surprised, I didn't expect that the elder sister is actually a good saver, and she has saved ten taels of silver!You must know that when the master is there, the nunnery is often unable to open the pot. Unexpectedly, only a year after the master left, the elder sister actually saved ten taels of silver!
Just when I was surprised, I accidentally found that everyone's eyes were looking at me. At first, I didn't realize it. Later, I realized that I couldn't help sighing. "I can only drag things home. I have never done such a thing that costs money!"

Then I turned my head to look at Xiaoqi. Although Xiaoqi is young, she has always been doing the work in this nunnery. Every time I get some prey from the mountains, she takes it to the town to exchange money for food, so , I will only get things at home, as for how to arrange these things, it is up to Xiaoqi.

"There is a team of masons in Xuejia Village. There is no farm work this day. I'll invite them to have a look tomorrow! It's just that the house has collapsed like this, and I don't know if it can be repaired..." Xiaoqi lived up to everyone's expectations, and finally gave a way.

The sky is high and the birds are flying, the sea is wide and the fish are leaping. It is not difficult for me to get some money when the master is gone!So, I said proudly. "Just find someone to build it! I'll come up with a solution for the money!"

"It will cost 20 taels of silver if all of them are covered! We are still short of ten taels, Third Senior Sister, where are you going to get so much money?" Xiao Qi frowned and asked.

None of the people present knew better than her how hard it is to earn money, and no one knew better than her how the ten taels of silver in the nunnery came from, so she didn't want Third Senior Sister to work too hard!
"How much silver can a wild boar sell?" I don't know the market very well, so I had to ask Xiao Qi to find out how many wild boars it takes to get together ten taels of silver.

"The meat of the wild boar is rough and lean, so it can't be sold for much money, at most one head can be sold for two taels!" Xiao Qi said. "However, the price of the newborn wild boar will be a little higher, the meat is tender and firm, and the restaurants in the town will accept it!"

"Amitabha!" The elder sister clasped her palms together, said a Buddhist gatha, and then said. "Why don't I go to the town to beg for alms, the money I got for building a Buddhist temple in exchange for killing lives is really not good!"

I couldn't help laughing, is the money that comes from begging must be clean?How could these sisters in the nunnery grow up if it wasn't for the money from these killings these years! "Elder Sister, is the money you get from begging for money necessarily clean? There is a saying that what is invisible to the eye is pure. You know that our money is obtained by killing animals, and you don't want to use it, but how do you know that the money you got from begging for money is pure?" It must have come from the right way? It may be dirtier than the ones we killed, but you don’t know it!”

"That's right! Senior sister, you don't know the price of firewood if you are not in charge of the family. If the third senior sister hadn't been hunting and digging wild vegetables in the mountains every day these years, how would we be able to eat every day!" The fourth junior sister persuaded.

The elder sister's face changed instantly, and her expression was a little difficult to distinguish.

"Elder Sister, the house has collapsed now, and the snow is still falling. Fortunately, we all know martial arts and react faster than ordinary people. Otherwise, we might not be able to escape tonight, but the clothes, bedding, etc. Everything is under pressure, if we don't build the house quickly, we might freeze to death this winter!" Xiao Qi stepped forward and grabbed the sleeve of the elder sister and begged.

Looking at the scene in front of me, I couldn't help sighing, after all, the elder sister is not as good as the master, although the master is stricter with them, but when encountering matters related to their lives, she will still take them as the main priority, Not as indecisive as the big sister!
After a long time, the elder sister finally spoke. "Okay, but I can't help you in the nunnery anyway, I'd better go to the nearby villages and towns for alms! The third sister is going hunting, and the seventh sister is responsible for contacting the bricklayer team. The rest of the sisters Just keep watch in the nunnery, see where you need help and go there to help!"

As soon as the senior sister's voice fell, the fourth junior sister said. "I'm going hunting with Third Senior Sister!"

"I'll go too!" Junior Sister Eight also said.

"And me!" The remaining junior sisters said in unison.

The elder sister's complexion suddenly became much uglier.

Fourth Junior Sister gave me a resentful look, and said helplessly. "I think it's better to forget it. I don't want to go hunting anymore. I'll go alms with the elder sister!"

Looking at the resentful little eyes of the fourth junior sister, I suppressed a smile. When the master was around, he often said that the fourth junior sister is the smartest among us. Just a face, she already knew that the senior sister was unhappy, even though she didn't want to , but she still chose to be with the big sister!
The house collapsed, and there was no place to live anyway, so I simply took my juniors into the mountains.

After walking for less than a stick of incense, I heard Fourth Junior Sister calling me from behind. "Third Senior Sister! Third Senior Sister! Wait! I have something to tell you!"

"What's wrong? Say what?" I stopped and asked.

Fourth Junior Sister pulled me aside and said in a low voice. "Third Senior Sister, if the Senior Sister says anything in the future, you'd better not tell her the opposite! It's not like you don't know the Senior Sister, she is small-minded, and if you fight against her all day, she might I'll give you little shoes to wear!"

Small shoes?I laughed. "Why did she give me small shoes? Back then, she was willing to follow the master to practice, so she was the senior sister, and for so many years, because she was practicing, all our sisters are working hard for tomorrow's ration And working hard, only she enjoys everything as she should, you said, she is going to beg for alms, but after so many years, she has never even been to the town, does she know the way?"

Fourth Junior Sister sighed. "We all know, but who made her inherit the mantle of the master, who made us not want to! Our life was saved by the master, and now the master has gone, the only thing we can do is to protect this nunnery ... We all grew up together, Third Senior Sister, I really don't want you to fall out with Senior Sister!"

Sighing, she nodded, this nunnery is where she lived since she was a child, if she really pissed off the elder sister and broke up, she really doesn't know where she should go! "Don't worry! As long as she still recites her scriptures and knocks on her wooden fish, I won't care about her!"

Fourth Junior Sister laughed, and suddenly brought her head closer, and said mysteriously. "Third Senior Sister, let me tell you a secret. Senior Sister has always said that you are too beautiful to cause trouble! In my opinion, she is jealous that you are more beautiful than her!"

"Puff~" I couldn't help laughing out for a moment, pretty?She felt that the elder sister was very solemn when she knocked on the wooden fish. Maybe she would never have this kind of feeling, but she liked that kind of solemn feeling...
