Chapter 240: Gain both people and money
As the oldest political and cultural center in Kyoto, it has undergone a strong historical background and has a strange atmosphere of peace, complex and charming. If Tokyo represents the modern side of the book, noisy and impetuous, Kyoto Prefecture represents the traditional side of the book - the Chinese Tang style copied from it.
It is very obvious that the streets are horizontal and vertical, the towns are very neat one by one, and the relics of the libo system are very strong, and under this strong Tang style, there are 700,000 households, a total population of 1.5 million, 810,000 houses, 38 universities, 200 museums and art galleries, 800 shrines, and 1,700 temples.
The Hakuba branch of the White Horse Temple is one of the 1,700 temples.
In this book, the temple is a general term, but in fact, it should be divided into temples and temples.
The temple is the main place, it is the place where the Buddha is worshipped, and the temple is either surrounded, or staggered, it is the residence of the great monks, or the place where the big people return to the Buddha to retreat.
Specifically, in the case of the White Horse's house, the temple is a "business" place, a "storefront" for their family, and Baima Ningzi's father works in it, and the courtyard is where their family lives and lives - one of the courtyards is where their family lives, and the rest have multiple courtyards or guest rooms for tourists, men and women, or training classes, or simply places to play.
Of course, the Hakuba family is more than just a temple.
There is a pedestrian street in front of the temple, and there are all kinds of shops on both sides of the street, all of which are their families (rented to others to operate), and the branch of the White Horse Temple is built on the mountain, and the small North Mountain behind it is also theirs. The small lake next to the mountain is also their home, and there are also many cemeteries nearby, covering a wide area.
Chihara Rin is now standing in front of the gate of the Hakuba Temple branch, that is, the door of Hakuba Ninko's house, and the only feeling is that it is so big!
There is a stupa in the temple, which is the core of the temple, and then the various worship halls are located around it. The temples built in the Tang Dynasty liked this pattern, and then the periphery was the courtyard that was surrounded by the mountain - the background was the mountain, and there were maple leaves on the mountain, and there was a light mist steaming, as if there was a hot spring.
Hakuma Ningzi was about to lead them in, when he noticed the gaze of Qianyuan Rinren, he also looked at the remnants of the maple leaves, and couldn't help laughing: "Qianyuan-kun, you may see 'early snow and red leaves' this year!"
Hanami is a cherry blossom viewing in spring and Momiji Hunt in autumn, and the best time to see the autumn leaves is from late September to early December, but at the end of December, the autumn leaves are still burning with life before they wither, and it is possible that the first snow will meet.
It is said that this culture likes fragile and poignant things, and it would be better to add a little sickness, and the early snow and red leaves meet this condition very well, and Chihara Rin is not surprised, but smiled: "If you are lucky enough to see it, of course it is good!"
Bai Ma Ningzi smiled slightly, said no more, and led them into the temple gate.
The autumn file of 97 is over, and this year has also come to the end of the year, and the script of the Taiga drama has not been held back, and Rin Chihara came to visit Hakuba's house as agreed, but he brought a group of followers - the eldest disciple Michiko, the second disciple Konoe Hitomi, and the mountain god Aiko, Nishino Kimisa and the second former holy son, who were also invited.
And the group of them followed Bai Ma Ningzi inside, and after entering the temple gate full of lanterns, they turned left in the direction of a courtyard. Konoe Hitomi carried the gifts brought by Rin Chihara in a large bag, looked around all the way, and found that this place was simple and solemn, harmonious and elegant, and immediately became cautious, and whispered to Michiko: "I didn't expect Sister Ningzi's family to be so big and rich." ”
She felt that this temple was half the size of her village, it was really a huge rich family she had never seen before, and Michiko pursed her lips with a gift and was silent.
She really didn't expect that Bai Ma Ningzi, who was usually dressed plainly, turned out to be a hidden giant tyrant, not to mention the buildings of this temple, they were all bulldozed, and this land was also worth a lot of money, and it was estimated that she could buy hundreds of little girls like her!
The better Bai Ma Ningzi's conditions, I don't know why, the more uncomfortable she felt in her heart, and now she has no interest in chatting behind at all.
The three of the mountain gods Aiko, who were two steps behind her, were also quite surprised, and Aiko knew that the Hakuba family was not ordinary rich. Her mother and Ning Zi's mother are cousins, and they have heard the family talk about it, but they are still shocked to see it with their own eyes - it is better to hear it than to see it in person, and if you don't come here, you can't imagine how deep Bai Maning's heritage is.
Nishino Kishisha looked around with curiosity, and then looked at Rin Chihara, who was walking side by side with Hakuma Ningzi at the front, and sighed in a low voice: "Wow, Mr. Chihara's luck is really good, both people and money! ”
Aiko Yamagami agreed: "He really picked up a big bargain." ”
I was very happy that the Holy Son could come with me before, this is a trip with an idol, and ordinary people don't have this kind of opportunity, but when they heard the words of the two good friends, they immediately dissatisfied: "Don't talk nonsense, they really love each other." ”
In terms of maintaining idols, she will never waver, but Aiko immediately replied: "I didn't say that they don't really love each other, but Mr. Chihara just picked up a big bargain, you look here, and all the eight achievements in the future will belong to him." ”
"Chihara-sensei doesn't care about these mundane things!"
"Without vulgar things, will he starve to death?"
......
They argued in the back, and Hakuma Ninko and Chihara Rin in front were unaware, and as they spoke, they reached a small courtyard on the side of the temple, where Hakuma Ninko's mother, Mizueda, was waiting in a sleeved kimono, and bowed from afar as she said to Dabin, "Welcome, the journey has been hard." ”
Tokyo is not far from Kyoto, but at the end of the year, just in time for the "Great Migration of Nationalities" in the Spring Festival, Chihara Rin brought a string of followers, and many people simply chartered a minibus to come, and they didn't need to pick up the station directly at the door, so Mitsueda greeted here is not rude, and it is also very formal - the temple gate is a business place, and it can also be said to be a home.
Rin Chihara hurriedly returned the salute: "Excuse me, Lady Hakuba." ”
Mizue looked at him with relief and said with a smile: "No need to say honorifics anymore, just call me aunt." "The fact that a rebellious daughter was able to bring him home already says a lot.
Of course, this kind of thing is as good as a stream, and he immediately went up along the pole, more flexible than a monkey: "Auntie, I'm going to cause you trouble these days." ”
"It's nothing. Mitsue's mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and Hakuma Ningzi saw that they were polite, and chuckled beside her: "Mom, I'm back." ”
Mitsue's gaze immediately turned to her, her eyebrows were slightly erect, and her expression was a little stern, but Hakuma Ningzi didn't care, she just smiled gently, that is, there was a kind of dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and it looked very docile and elegant, making it difficult for people to be angry at her.
But Chihara Rin saw that the situation was wrong, so he immediately changed the topic and introduced Mizueda: "By the way, these are my two disciples, and I have to disturb them during this time." ”
Michiko and Hitomi Konoe put down their gifts and bowed together: "Hello, I'm Michiko (Hitomi Konoe), it's the first time we meet, please take care of me." ”
Mizue was naturally notified, and it was too common for Chihara Rin to have a few disciples as a great screenwriter in Yuben, she was not surprised, she looked at Michiko and Konoe Hitomi carefully, and said with a smile: "Welcome, you don't need to be restrained here, just treat it as your own home." ”
Michiko saluted again, but didn't speak, but Hitomi Konoe said obediently: "Yes, thank you." ”
After Chihara Rin finished introducing his disciples, Hakuma Ninko immediately introduced the three of Yamagami Aiko, and the three of them were also very polite, saluting together, and Mizueda also expressed her welcome, especially holding the hand of Yamagami Aiko very affectionately.
Hakuma Ningzi didn't obey her arrangement and ran away directly, if she didn't have a point in her heart, and she knew that she lived in a distant relative's house, and she didn't know her whereabouts, she could worry ten times more! The last time she went to Tokyo to see Chihara Rinto, she went to visit Yamagami Aiko's house, and she was very grateful, and now that Yamagami Aiko came to play, she naturally had to treat her well, and she also returned the favor - distant relatives, she and Yamagami Aiko's mother were cousins, and they didn't marry in the same place, and they rarely met for so many years.
After the two sides finished politely in front of the courtyard gate, Mitsueda hurriedly brought them into the courtyard and said with a smile: "The place to live is ready, and it is relatively quiet here, there may be some inadequate hospitality, if you need anything, please tell me immediately." ”
This courtyard is not large, white gray tiles, and there is a green island in the courtyard, and there is a quaint stone on the island. There are two or three larger stones of the same material in the corner of the courtyard, and there is a half-withered pine tree next to it, a courtyard of the dry landscape water, which is wild and interesting, and exudes elegance.
The house is two Japanese-style longhouses, with white walls and gray tiles, but they are wooden, and they are about less than 20 centimeters above the ground in order to prevent moisture, and there are wooden cloisters, and you can easily enjoy the scenery of the courtyard when you open the sliding doors made of silk, and it is also convenient to enjoy the moon and the wind.
Mizueda pointed to the longhouse and asked, "Chihara-kun takes your disciples to live in this room on the left, and Aiko-chan and her classmates live in this room on the right, how about this?" ”
The three of Yamagami Aiko have no opinion, and Chihara Rin is a little hesitant, this ...... Don't I live with Ningzi? I don't have to sleep together, it's always good for everyone to be closer, right? Anyway, there are so many rooms, just give Ningzi a room and let those five little guys squeeze in.
It's just the first time he came to visit, and he was embarrassed to ask, so he could only smile and say, "It's really troublesome for you." ”
Mizue looked at him and smiled, "It's nothing, just treat this place as your own home." After a pause, she added: "There is a Dharma today, Ningzi's father is not busy, you first settle the luggage, take a rest, and eat together in the evening." ”
Chihara Rin responded with a smile, and Mizue didn't bother them anymore, and just pulled her daughter away, asking Ningzi to help her prepare the meal together. Ningzi didn't resist, just winked at Rin Chihara, and was very docile following her mother.
Chihara Rin looked at Ningzi's back and regretted that he couldn't say a few words to Ningzi in the car, except for Mei Qianzi and Shengzi, the other three all like to be noisy, and they have been pestering Ningzi to ask if there is anything interesting in Kyoto, and now it's finally time for the idle people to get out, and Ningzi was taken away by her mother again, it's really difficult to get together!
He sighed secretly and waved his hand: "Pick your own room and put your luggage, don't run around!"
Now on December 28th, they are going to stay here for a week, and they don't mention gifts, just saying that they have brought a lot of clothes and daily necessities, so they should go and put them away. The three of them immediately answered, and went to the longhouse on the right, while Hitomi Konoe and Michiko humbled each other and began to discuss who would live in which room - the middle room was a little larger and was for the master to live in, and the two of them were divided or so.
These two disciples have a strong ability to stand on their own, and Chihara Rin didn't care about them, he took off his shoes in the wooden cloister, carried his luggage and entered the room, looked around, and found that the White Horse family was really not a nouveau riche, and there was a Ya character everywhere, but behind this Ya word was money - many calligraphy and paintings looked a little old, obviously not a big road goods, and they couldn't be cheap.
The bonsai also looks unconventional, and it is also made by a famous artist, that is, the tatami mats under the feet are made of good rush straw, and there is a feeling of wool carpet when stepped on.
He looked at it briefly, threw the duffel bag directly into the closet, and waited for it to be useful, and then put a large pile of books on the table, and thought about it for the time being, there was nothing to do - the White Horse family must have officially entertained them once, and now it is time for them to rest and wash, and by the way, they will also prepare some food, but he is young, and he didn't feel any tiredness after sitting in the car for most of the day, so he simply continued to ponder his script.
Dahe drama is not easy to choose, he has to flip through the book and think about it carefully.
He went to the kotatsu and sat down, it was a small square table, with an electric heater attached to the back of the table, and then covered with a quilt, and when people sat at the table, the lower half of the body could be warmed by the way.
It is said that the climate is not very good, hay fever + rainy season in spring, hot and humid + typhoon in summer, dry in autumn, and very wet and cold in winter - winter is all dependent on this thing, and it is also copied from China.
He drilled into the kotatsu and found that it was really comfortable, and slightly regretted that the kotatsu was not kept in Huaxia, and then his attention was on the book. After waiting for more than twenty minutes, light footsteps sounded in the corridor, and his two disciples came in succession.
Seeing him sitting in the kotatsu, Michiko asked strangely, "Master, have you cleaned up?"
Rin Chihara replied casually, "It's cleaned up." ”
Konoe Hitomi is more wild, and he doesn't talk about personal privacy, so he went directly to the closet and opened the door to take a look, and when he found the duffel bag, he was lying in it, and shouted directly: "I guess that's it, Master, you're really sloppy." ”
"It's called informality. ”
"You're just too lazy to hang up your clothes one by one, are you?"
"You don't have to worry about it, just leave it alone. ”
This kind of thing, Konoe Hitomi and Michiko naturally couldn't listen to him, and began to help him get daily necessities and hang up clothes. This luggage was not sorted out by Rin Chihara himself, it was a bag given to him by Tomohisa Mita, he didn't pay attention to these things in the first place, and he never wanted to do it himself if he could push it to others.
They were busy for more than ten minutes, and when the work was over, Michiko made tea again, and sat in the kotatsu with Konoe Hitomi, watching Chihara Rin frowning and flipping through the book, writing and drawing in the notebook from time to time, and staying so silent for four or five minutes, Konoe Hitomi couldn't help it, stretched out his head, and asked in a low voice: "Master, this will be yours in the future, right?" Can I move in!"
To let her live here for a long time, she is willing, a hundred times better than the apartment she rented.
Michiko frowned, and Chihara Rin looked up at Konoe Hitomi, you are really thick-skinned, and said angrily: "This is the Hakuba family, and it has nothing to do with us." ”
"But aren't you planning to marry Sister Ningzi?"
"I want her people, not her property. ”
"You just covet her body, but Sister Ningzi is an only daughter, does it make a difference?"
"Of course there is, if I can choose, I would prefer that she is poor and white, and she doesn't even have a place to live! Also, what is it called greedy for her body, what I want is her heart!" This is the true thought of Chihara Rinren, if Ningzi was helpless, pitiful and helpless, then he would have fallen into his clutches a long time ago, and there was no need to drag it out so much, but as soon as his words fell, Mei Qianzi took her little foot in the quilt and began to kick him lightly.
Qianyuan Rin looked up in surprise and found that Hakuma Ningzi was standing at the door with a smile, and was suddenly a little embarrassed, I don't know how much she heard, but Ningzi didn't care, and said with a smile: "Qianyuan-kun, have you cleaned up? ”
