548 Feeding His Sister Was More Important

Gu Nuo’er blinked and said softly, “It’s fine. It must be delicious too!”

After saying that, the child took two bites of the vegetables and ate until her pink lips were glistening.

Ye Siming wiped his fingers. “I’ll go out for a while.”

Gu Nuo’er quickly looked up. “Where are you going?!”

“I saw a free-range chicken in the backyard. The monks can’t handle it. I’ll slaughter it and roast it for you to eat.”

Ye Siming spoke calmly, but Kongjue couldn’t help but be stunned.

Shuyi and Shu’er were also stunned and the chopsticks in their hands fell.

The two young monks hurriedly whimpered. “Benefactor, show mercy. Master is raising that chicken. It’s not for eating!”

Ye Siming frowned.

He first looked at the child.

He knew that Gu Nuo’er would not be happy without meat.

Kongjue didn’t like people killing in the temple. Moreover, it was a pheasant he had picked up from the mountain to treat.

However, he couldn’t help but look at Gu Nuo’er.

The child was holding a bowl of porridge with two pieces of vegetables that had just been placed in her bowl.

Coupled with her round and fair face, Kongjue only felt pity for her.

His sister had come to visit him, but she had to suffer with him. She really shouldn’t…

Kongjue closed his eyes and pressed his palms together. “Young Master Ye, go ahead. It’s just that please don’t do it in the temple lest you dirty the Buddhist land.”

If he didn’t stop the act of killing today, he could only kneel in front of Buddha and repent for dozens of days later on.

However, feeding his sister was more important.

Ye Siming frowned. “This old Buddhist man also eats meat. It seems that you don’t know.”

Kongjue hurriedly stopped him. “Young Master Ye, don’t blaspheme the gods and Buddhas. This is disrespectful.”

Ye Siming sneered and didn’t want to talk to him anymore. He turned around and walked out.

Gu Nuo’er quickly shouted, “Elder Brother Siming, don’t go anymore. I don’t want to eat pheasant!”

Ye Siming looked back and raised his eyebrows at the child.

How could he not know that she didn’t want to cause trouble?

Ye Siming was silent for a moment. He hesitated for a moment between filling the little thing’s stomach or going along with her wishes and not hurting the pheasant in the temple.

In the end, he chose to listen to her.

Ye Siming turned around and sat back down.

Gu Nuo’er held the bowl of porridge in her two small hands and gulped it down.

Then, she even pretended to be full. “The vegetarian food in the monastery has a different flavor! It reminds me of the monks and grandpas in the Taishi Monastery. Their dishes are also delicious!”

Kongjue watched as she finished the bowl of porridge and even ate a few pieces of tofu.

However, he still felt bad.

His sister must be a little girl pampered by his father and treated preciously.

It was fine if she came to such a deep mountain to visit him, but he couldn’t even take out a decent vegetarian meal to serve her.

Kongjue was very embarrassed for a moment and forgot his identity as a monk. He only thought that he really wasn’t worthy of being Gu Nuo’er’s older brother.

His emotionless face was filled with a sigh. He pressed his palms together and nodded at Gu Nuo’er.

After the group finished their simple meal, Ye Siming held Gu Nuo’er’s small hand and prepared to leave.

Kongjue sent them off for a while, but Gu Nuo’er didn’t forget to turn around. Her eyes were bright like stars.

“Monk older brother, hurry up and go back. If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll come and visit you again!”

Kongjue was stunned and said frankly, “Benefactor, the mountain path is troublesome. Please don’t go through so much trouble for this poor monk in the future.”

Gu Nuo’er blinked her long eyelashes. “It’s alright! I don’t find it troublesome!”

After saying that, she waved her hand and said goodbye with a sweet smile before pulling Ye Siming away.

After they had walked very far, Ye Siming looked back and realized that the thin figure in the kasaya was still standing at the end of the road.
