Chapter 209: Earn some merit
The next day they spent another day in the city buying some local specialties, and on the third day they finally packed up their backpacks and set off back home.

Returning to Lancheng in the afternoon, the two of them did not go home directly, but first came to their parents' community with specialties.

"You're back? Is Shaolin Temple fun?" Uncle Shen rarely had a rest today. He looked at them coming over with several bags of specialties and asked with a smile.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Uncle Shen still missed his daughter a little, but he didn't care.

"Hey, I just walked around a few temples and finished it. There's nothing interesting." Su Qi put a few bags of specialties on the table.

What fun is there in the Shaolin Temple? He is exhausted.

"A thousand-year-old temple is not an amusement park. It is about culture, and it is not for you to see the scenery." Uncle Shen pointed at him.

"But the scenery on Songshan Mountain is quite nice." Su Qi said with a smile.

"Yes, Songshan Mountain is very high and the scenery is very beautiful." Shen Wangqing also interjected, and then took out his mobile phone, "Dad, let me show you the photos we took. I originally wanted to take a few pictures at the top of the mountain, but it's a pity that your son-in-law is so useless , I couldn’t bear to climb down halfway.”

Shen Wangqing opened her phone and clicked on the photos to show to Uncle Shen. She also took the opportunity to complain to her father about Su Qi's fault, which made Su Qi roll his eyes.

"By the way, Dad, I asked you for a talisman in the temple, please keep it." After seeing the photo for Uncle Shen, Shen Wangqing thought of something and took out a peace talisman from her pocket.

At that time, there was a monk setting up a stall in the Shaolin Temple to sell these things. Shen Wangqing was interested and bought one. Of course, Su Qi also bought a charm for each of Su's father and mother, as well as bracelets and the like.

After chatting with Uncle Shen for half an hour, the two of them carried their things to their parents' house. Su's mother rarely had time to watch TV in the living room during the holidays, while Su's father and his friends slipped away to fish somewhere.

"Mom, this is for you." Su Qi took out the bracelet from his bag and threw it to Su's mother.

Su's mother subconsciously took it and asked without looking carefully: "What is it?"

"Buddha beads bracelet, bought in Shaolin Temple. Wear it on your body to ward off evil spirits. It is more effective than the ones you buy blindly in those stores." Su Qi put the bag on the sofa and pulled Shen Wangqing to sit down.

"What evil do I want to ward off?" Su's mother asked doubtfully while playing with the beads.

"Didn't you buy something to ward off evil spirits and hang it at home every day?"

"Didn't that scare you two?" When she mentioned this, Su's mother said angrily.

"It's none of my business, that's a good thing your best friend did." Su Qi pointed at Shen Wangqing to clear up the responsibility.

He doesn't know how to play time travel.

"My dad went fishing?" Su Qi looked around the house and changed the subject.

"Yes, I've been out for a day, and I don't know how many fish I can catch today..." Su's mother put the Buddhist beads bracelet on her wrist. Not to mention that it was quite suitable to wear, and it was also her son's intention. Also happy.

"I'm still thinking about giving the things I bought to my dad." Su Qi patted the bulging backpack.

"What did you buy for him?" Su's mother asked curiously.

"Don't he like fishing? I bought him a wooden fish!" Su Qi chuckled and took out another wooden fish from his bag.

Su’s mother was dumbfounded: “Is this the same as fishing with eight poles?”

"They're all fish."

"What's the point of buying this thing? Isn't it a waste of money?" Su's mother looked at the wooden fish and didn't know how to complain.

"It's useless. If you have nothing to do at home, why don't you knock it?" Su Qi put the wooden fish on the coffee table, took a mallet and demonstrated how to knock it.

"Look, the merits I just struck will be increased by one! If you tap every day without any problem, how much merit can you accumulate in one day? After a few years, your merits will be complete and you will become a Buddha immediately."

"..."

Su's mother looked at Su Qi banging the wooden fish and mumbling words, and looked at Shen Wangqing in confusion.

After a trip to the Shaolin Temple, why is my brain still not normal?

If you can become a Buddha immediately by knocking a wooden fish twice, then why are the monks still chanting sutras every day?
Shen Wangqing felt Su's mother's gaze and spread her hands to show that she was used to it.

In the evening, Su's father returned home carrying an empty little red bucket. He was a little surprised to see Su Qi and the other two people had come back. Just when he was about to say something, he saw Su Qi come over and look into the bucket naughty...

"Dad, are you in the Air Force again?"

"..."

Such a sentence immediately ruined Su's father's good mood when he just came back and saw them arriving home.

"How can I know how to be in the Air Force?" Su's father glared angrily.

"Then why aren't there any fish in your bucket?" Su Qi pointed to the empty bucket.

"I let go."

"When did you become so kind that you would catch fish and release them?" Su's mother heard this and joined in.

If my husband catches a fish and doesn’t come back to show off, it’s fine, but will he release it?
"Can't you? Save some merit." Dad Su puffed up his chest.

Su Qi suddenly became happy after hearing this, and said to Su's mother: "Listen, I just said that the wooden fish I bought was useful, and I said it was a waste."

"What wooden fish?" Su's father didn't understand.

Mother Su walked back to the living room angrily, picked up the wooden fish and threw it into Father Su's hands: "You want to accumulate merit, right? Your son bought the wooden fish for you when he came back from Shaolin Temple. Go ahead and knock it."

"..."

Father Su looked at the wooden fish, then at the stick, and then moved his eyes to the face of Su Qi who was watching the excitement. He was so angry that he raised the stick and hit him on the head.

"Go to the Shaolin Temple and bring me a wooden fish back? You're a heartless guy!"

Su Qi covered his head: "This wooden fish is so valuable, why don't you recognize a good heart?"

"Then I'll beat you even more. It's a waste of money!"

"You said you wanted to accumulate merit, wouldn't it be just right to buy you a wooden fish?" Su Qi felt aggrieved.

"Then why don't I get an electronic wooden fish knocker on my phone? That thing costs nothing,"

"..." Su Qi was speechless.

After dinner, Su Qi and Shen Wangqing were too lazy to rush around after riding in the car all day, so they simply stayed at their parents' place for the night.

Shen Wangqing took Su Qi to Uncle Shen's house and sat there for a while, chatting with the old man and talking about what he saw and heard on this far trip.

It wasn't until Uncle Shen got tired and drove them back that the two of them came back to take a bath and sleep.

……

The May Day holiday ended in a blink of an eye. Shen Wangqing brought some specialties to the company to share with Xu Ran, Zhou Wenqing and several colleagues with whom they had good relationships.

"Wangqing, did you go to the Shaolin Temple?" Xu Ran took the Shaolin Temple plain cake that Shen Wangqing gave her and asked.

"Yes, I have wanted to go before. It happens to be the May Day holiday and I can go out with Su Qi." Shen Wangqing nodded.

"That's great~" Xu Ran leaned back on the chair, raised her little head, and spoke in a long tone of envy.

"Didn't you go out to play?" Shen Wangqing asked.

"Where can I go to play alone? There's no one to accompany me..." Xu Ran muttered.

"What about your other friends?"

"They all went to accompany their boyfriends just like you, how could they have time to accompany me..." Xu Ran pursed her lips with a miserable expression.

What a sad story...

Shen Wangqing didn't know whether he should comfort him or not: "Why don't you find someone to help you introduce a boyfriend?"

"No, what's the point of the introduction? This kind of thing depends on fate." Xu Ran refused decisively, picked up the plain cake that Shen Wangqing brought to her, opened it and tasted it.

"What if your fate is to die alone?" Shen Wangqing scratched his head.

"..."

Xu Ran almost choked while eating the cake: "Wang Qing, do you understand the art of speaking?"

"I just care about you. Don't we have several young people in our company? You can give it a try." Shen Wangqing suggested.

"Pull him down. When you didn't come, those guys were trying to please me every day, but then they all came after you. I don't like these half-hearted guys." Xu Ran became very angry when he thought about this.

"Too."

Shen Wangqing doesn't like these people who are here and there, look at Su Qi of his family, who has been chasing her all the time. A man must be single-minded.

……

Two weeks have passed, it’s the weekend, an auspicious day.

Today is the wedding day on Zhou Wenqing’s invitation.

The custom in Lancheng is to have a banquet in the afternoon to welcome the bride and have lunch at noon. When the time comes, Su Qi and Shen Wangqing wait at the gate of their community for Zhou Wenqing to drive over to pick them up.

"Xiao Su, why are you dressed so presentable? Are you going to get married?" Security guard Uncle Qin looked at the young couple standing at the door curiously.

"No, I'm attending a friend's wedding." Su Qi replied with a smile.

When Lao Zhou got married, Su Qi went to attend the event. Naturally, he had to dress up like a dog. He never liked dressing up, and he even asked Shen Wangqing to help him get a hairstyle and light makeup today. Not to mention he was quite handsome, at least Shen Wangqing It looks very satisfying.

"Oh, what about your wedding?" Uncle Qin asked.

"If nothing else happens, I will send the invitation to you next month." Su Qi said with a smile.

"Okay, as long as you don't forget about me."

"How can that be."

While Su Qi was chatting with Uncle Qin, Zhou Wenqing also drove up.

After picking up Su Qi and Shen Wangqing into the car and closing the door, Su Qi asked Zhou Wenqing in the driver's seat, "Where are we going now? To pick up the mouse?"

"The mouse has been taken over a long time ago, and he is probably dressing up and putting on makeup now." Zhou Wenqing explained.

He picked up Pei Hao first, and then picked up Su Qi and others.

"Really? I haven't seen that Mouse guy dress up before. Now that he's the best man, I have to see what he looks like." Su Qi immediately became happy when he heard this.

"Haha, I'm looking forward to it too." Zhou Wenqing said with a smile, "Originally, I wanted you to be the best man, but you didn't want to."

"Why should I be the best man when I'm already married? I can just leave this opportunity to a rat." Su Qi actually doesn't like being the best man, mainly because there are too many things to do, so it's not as interesting as joining in the fun as a group of relatives and friends.

"There's no rule saying that the best man must be unmarried. I think you just find it troublesome." Zhou Wenqing drove the car and exposed this guy's thoughts.

Su Qi smiled and did not deny it: "Although I am not the best man, I am still a group of relatives and friends. I still want to join in the fun. I will also go to pick up the bride later to take a look. What does your wife look like? I haven't seen her before?"

"She's not as beautiful as your wife, so what's there to see?"

"Don't be modest. This is my yellow-faced woman. What's so beautiful about her?" Su Qi waved his hand.

"Who are you talking about?" Shen Wangqing, who had been listening silently for a long time, suddenly lay down on his gun and glared at Su Qi unhappily.

"I'm just trying to be modest. Do you know how the world works?" Su Qi had a headache.

"Are you being modest or belittling me?" Shen Wangqing was unhappy.

If you want to be self-effacing, won’t you put it another way?

"Can you be more organized and not get hung up on these details?"

"no!"

Zhou Wenqing couldn't help laughing when he saw Su Qi and Shen Wangqing arguing in the back seat. This noisy atmosphere was very similar to the way he got along with his wife.
