It is still the morning of midsummer, Qingtan Temple is still the same as usual, the morning bell in the temple was rung by the monk who rang the bell early in the morning, the bell is long and long, ringing throughout the temple, echoing for a long time.

Heluo got up at the same time as usual, but he heard Mama Zhou say. The people in the next yard don't know when they've left. He Luo looked at the sky, and since he came out of the house, he woke up late every day, and it was only a few hours. Come to think of it, people walk in the middle of the night.

He Luo hadn't seen any other people since he came to Qingtan Temple, thinking of the man with a strange temper yesterday, He Luo was stunned for a while under the jacaranda in the courtyard.

Time flies, in a blink of an eye, it's another year. He Luo looked at the big trees in the yard and thought that he had really been in a dream in the past two years. I just don't know how long such peaceful days will last.

"Girl," Mama Zhou hurriedly walked in from outside, and said, "Girl, someone is in the house, just wait outside." ”

He Luo was startled when she heard this, and her heart was turbulent, she was thinking about her useless identity, and the people in the mansion couldn't think of her, unless something happened, so that the eldest lady had to find such an abandoned son of herself. Even so, I had to step forward to deal with it.

Heluo asked Mama Zhou to take people to the outhouse, and she went into the inner room to cover her face.

When I couldn't see anything more, I went out of the house. Seeing that Mama Zhou brought a housekeeper and mother-in-law who were used to the eldest lady in the house, after they saluted, she asked, "I don't know what my mother wants you to come to explain?"

After hearing this, the steward glanced sideways at the woman, obviously deceiving her for not being able to see the Tao in this at a young age.

The woman then opened her mouth and replied: "Madame heard that it is very hard for the girl to pray in the temple, so she is very distressed and worried in her heart, and she is worried that the girl is working hard to pray in the temple. Mrs. said that the hottest time in summer has not yet come, and if it comes, I am afraid that the heat in Qingtan Temple will be annoying, and I am worried that the girl will not have a good time here. ”

When Heluo heard this, he immediately showed a grateful look on his face and said: "I should pray for my mother's blessing, but it's hard to think about me for so many things in my mother's house." Although the summer heat in the temple is disturbing, Heluo thinks that the eldest sister in the palace and her mother can still endure it, and she asks her mother to rest assured. ”

When she came, the lady only said that the three girls were stupid and cowardly, and if she mentioned the matter of letting her go home, she was afraid that it would be too late to rejoice, how could she expect this answer. Then he said a little impatiently: "The girl has been praying for blessings for some days, and the house is reading it, is it possible that the girl doesn't want to go back?"

"How could I not want to, where is this temple better than home, but when I came, I asked the abbot master, in addition to praying for blessings to be sincere, the most taboo is not to pray for blessings intermittently, once broken, not only can not play the effect of praying for others, maybe there will be bad things happening. He Luo had a shy smile on his face, as if he could pray for his mother-in-law, and he was a little embarrassed.

When the woman heard this, her face was a little frightened.

The ancients had always attached great importance to ghosts and gods, and Heluo wanted to use this to block the mouth of this woman. When would this eldest lady ever worry about her, if something hadn't happened, it would have been impossible to call someone to pick her up. She knew that this was just a temporary delaying measure, but if she didn't even know what was going on in the mansion, how could she see a move.

Heluo saw that the woman had nothing to say, but she was still standing there. Then he said, "The hour has come for me to copy the scriptures today, so let you go back first if you have nothing to do." After speaking, regardless of the expressions of the two below, he turned around and walked into the inner room.

He Luo sat in the room in a daze, until Mama Zhou came in and said that the two had stood for a while and had left. Turning his head to look at the flower tree outside the house, he remembered that this flower tree bloomed so brilliantly when he came last year, and now he has only been here for two years, and he is about to leave here?

"Mama Zhou, this time the eldest lady came strangely, although we left suddenly, could it be said that there is no one in the mansion who can listen to the news?" He Luo turned his face to Mama Zhou and asked a little eagerly.

Mama Zhou thought carefully for a while, her expression was a little solemn, "Of course not, Miss has been in the mansion for so many years." It's just that after the young lady died of illness that day, the former personal maids were sold out because the eldest lady said that she was not serving properly. Only the old slave, because he was considered a young lady's mother's family, was left behind. There are very few people in the house who can be cultivated, so there are no more people on the surface. It's just that there are two dark chess, which are a pair of sisters that Miss rescued back then, one is on an errand in front of Madame, and the other is in the big kitchen. On the same day, the young lady died, and the girl was seriously ill and sent out of the house. The old slave thought that these two people would not be needed in their lives, but they didn't think that there would be such a day, so the old slave went back to investigate. ”

"Slow," Heluo stopped Mama Zhou, "Mama can't be so impatient, people's hearts are already changeable, how does Mama know that these two people are still available now, if there is a case." "Heluo will not be so naïve as to think that the main master is gone, and the two of them will not have other thoughts.

"Rest assured, when these two sold themselves to Pei Mansion, there was a younger brother who was on an errand in other places, and their brother's deed of sale was in our hands. All I have to do is ask him to deliver me a letter, and I don't have to show up. ”

Heluo nodded when he heard this, and let Mama Zhou go.

Not to mention how Mama Zhou found out the news. Seeing that the mother-in-law and the steward did not take the turn, they were naturally worried that they would be punished when they went back, so they hurried back to reply.

When the eldest lady heard that Heluo was unwilling to come back, she was naturally furious and punished the mother-in-law and the steward. asked Mama Hu beside her: "How could that girl be reluctant to come back in that barren mountain and wilderness, it can't be because she is used to being cheap, Mama Hu, you say, will she know something?"

Mama Hu pondered for a while before returning: "Madame, don't worry, this Qingtan Temple is at least a day's time." Madame's uncle also just arrived, and even the rest of the people in the house didn't know about it. How could it reach that little girl's ears?"

The eldest lady breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and beckoned to the girl standing aside, asking her to come and rub her shoulders. Only then did he say in a low voice: "It's all because I was quick to talk back then, so that Yu'er was engaged to my brother's eldest son, but it was just a joke at the time, who knew that they would take it seriously, but now I see that our Pei Mansion is developed." But I was also kind at that time, and in the situation of our family at that time, I just wanted to help Yu'er find a good home. But now that Yu'er has entered the palace, this matter of marriage can't be spread outside, otherwise it will be a disaster. The eldest lady said this, her face full of fear.

After a while, the eldest lady's face turned fierce, and she said to Mama Hu: "Hua Hong is also a person who has been with me for many years, and I can't act so smoothly in the house without her for so many years, she begged me and didn't want Heying to marry her, and I had no choice." Now I have to let that cheap girl come back to take over this family business. Mama Hu, after these few days, I'm going to bother you, you take a few little girls to Qingtan Temple, what's the matter, you have to bring that cheap girl back to me. After the eldest lady said this, her face was full of hideousness.

And the little girl who rubbed her shoulders just lowered her eyes, and her hands were still not slow. But his mouth was tightly closed.

He Luo sat on the edge of the bed, thinking about the news that Mama Zhou had brought back overnight, and a hint of ridicule hung on the corner of her mouth.

In the early years of the eldest lady, her mother's family was also considered progressive, and her brother got a military attache position of Zhaowu Lieutenant Zheng Liupin, and although Pei's Mansion was a scholarly mansion in Beijing at that time, it has long since declined in recent years. In addition, before the current accession to the throne, the country was busy with war, so naturally there was some emphasis on military force and light on literature, which made it even more difficult.

Although Pei Shizhong's house is a long house, he was not a descendant in his early years, and he couldn't stay in Beijing after the natural separation, but Pei Shizhong fought for himself and took the path of the imperial examination.

Therefore, after the eldest lady saw the eldest son of her mother's brother, she had the idea of marrying her, thinking in her heart that her daughter would not have to suffer from the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were married. It's just that it was just a joke at the time, and no one else knew about it.

Who would have thought that Pei Shizhong was not an ordinary person, and he did have some real talent in his belly, plus he was sleek. Over the years, he has come up step by step, and even the identity of the eldest daughter of Heyu has risen. And the eldest lady naturally forgot about the events of the year a long time ago, who expected, Heyu entered the palace, but the people of her mother's family came to the door again.

This matter of marriage can be big or small, but if you enter the palace like Heyu, you need to have a clean and innocent background, and such a thing naturally can't be. It's just that if this is the case, after Heying gets married, he can also get rid of this family matter. It's just that the eldest lady's nephew's behavior is ridiculous, and he hasn't married yet, and there are already a few concubines in the family, but he doesn't know anything about the rest of the things. The family has also been a little depressed in the past few years, but it is still barely supported by a father who is a six-rank military attaché. Heying's aunt is the eldest lady's dowry, so she naturally knows these things, so how can she send Heying into the fire pit.

It is really a human being who does not hurt the tiger, and the tiger is harmful to people's hearts. I have repeatedly avoided it, and I have made others think that I am unable to protect myself, since you want to ruin my life, then I don't have to be polite to you. He Luo thought about it, and the eldest lady would definitely let someone take her back again in the next few days. Then I had to make some plans earlier.

Then Mama Zhou was summoned and ordered something in her ear. This is also a good way to prepare before returning home.
