The wife of Xiangjiang boss who disappeared for ten years is back

Chapter 239 Sleeping Buddha or Reclining Buddha?

She explained directly: "There are two types of people who believe in Buddhism. One is the spirit of belief, and this type is more rational. The other type is Mr. Ye who loves dragons and has no Buddha in his heart, but he puts all the Buddha statues in his home. The purpose of pretending to be pious is to show it to others and comfort myself!"

This is the first time I have heard this statement.

Fang Zongtang went on to say: "A rational person, even a Buddha statue that costs five yuan a piece at a small stall, can have the effect of worshiping five million yuan. Don't pay attention to the outside, but pay attention to the inside!"

Door Return: Is this a compliment to their family?
Why does this sound so awkward?

Forget it, just think of it as a compliment!

"I thought about it, and you're right. Our family is very religious, and we haven't paid much attention to the eyes of the Buddha statue."

She laughed amusedly in her heart, so she said it to save face for you, do you really believe it?
This is a Buddhist statue from the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it is very valuable.No matter how wealthy you are, if you encounter this stone statue, you will look at it carefully.

Your family didn’t read it, including you, it’s all Ma Daha.

"When the stone statue is about to open its eyes, it means two situations. Either the sleeping Buddha is about to open its eyes and wake up, or it is the reclining Buddha who is squinting his eyes to rest."

Menhui looked at Fang Zongtang in surprise: "Can a stone statue see so many things?"

She said to herself: Back then, my great-grandpa specially brought a dog over to let me carve the lion with pearls into a charm, and let me see the dog's expression.

It took her five years to carve a boulder weighing more than 400 kilograms into a palm-sized lion holding a pearl.

After five years of watching a dog's face, to put it bluntly, she now knows what a dog is thinking just by looking at its frown.

Carving god statues is the same as carving other living things, the emphasis is on careful observation and meticulous attention to detail.If she couldn't tell the difference between lying down and lying down, she wouldn't have to carve anything in her life!
She gave Men Huihui an answer that he could understand better.

"The more you see, the more you carve, the more you will know."

Menhui immediately said, "Then this is the Reclining Buddha, isn't it the Sleeping Buddha?"

She nodded directly, pointing to the other hand supporting the statue's head.

"Look carefully at this finger, it is lifted. When you sleep, do you lift your finger?"

The moment the door returns, it dawns on me.

"The other broken arm has long been lost. Even my family members said it was the Sleeping Buddha, and I have always called it the Sleeping Buddha. It turned out that I was calling it wrong!"

Pointing to the carved arm, she asked, "Crossing your fingers, is there any question?"

Men Hui hurriedly said seriously: "No problem, just like this."

She went on to say: "The stone is too heavy. Resin and gold wire are not suitable. I plan to grind off the fracture a little more, hollow out the inside of the arm, and insert it. This will not damage the stone and is also strong. "

After Menhui heard the proposal, he also felt very good.But he still has a little more concern.

"Will it break the stone?"

This is what she wants to say next.

"No, for the next job, I will use a carving knife and sandpaper to polish it a little bit. In order to avoid the stone from breaking, the speed will be very, very slow."

Men Huihui understood, and immediately said cheerfully: "I'm not in a hurry. You can give it to me in three to five years."

After listening to it for three or five years, she immediately laughed.

"It's not that exaggerated, at most half a year to a year!"

Men Huihui was afraid that she would catch up with the progress, so he even tried to persuade her.

"We believe in Buddhism very rationally. What we believe in is the spirit. Although the Buddha statue is here with you, the spirit is always in our hearts. Don't worry so much!"

Fang Zongtang: "..." There are really everyone in the world~
What you said is quite good, but I was worried that you would run away and not pay me~
