Chapter 60: Renwonji Temple

Renyuan Temple is located in 30 miles outside the city, surrounded by green mountains, and there is a green water temple behind it, the scenery is very beautiful.

The Lu family was very thoughtful, and he had already sent someone to come over to inform the host, so when Ke Xiyuan arrived, there were already monks waiting there.

"Hello female benefactor, the old man has been waiting for a long time! I don't know if the donor has come all the way? The old monk who spoke was the leader, and he was not wearing a robe, and for a while, Ke Xiyuan was not easy to guess his identity.

I had to fold my hands and replied respectfully, "I should have arrived earlier, but I met some snacks on the way, so I was late, and Master Lao was waiting." ”

The old monk smiled disapprovingly, "I have presided over my senior brother's retreat for a long time, and now I am in charge of the affairs in the mountains. ”

It turned out to be the acting host, but for some reason, Ke Xiyuan just felt that although the monk in front of him looked compassionate, his eyes were full of light, and he was very shrewd.

"It's better to be respectful than to obey orders, and ask the master to arrange for me to rest. My brother was injured and needed to rest, so he asked the master to give him medicine. ”

Renyuan Temple is not only famous for marriage and signing the spirit, but also for its medical skills. The people in this vicinity often go up to the mountain to ask for medicine, and the masters in the temple all don't take a penny, which is very loved by the people.

"Well said, well said! The sesame oil offered to my temple every year by Kefu is very rich, and it is only a medicine, so what is the concern. Dusty understated, his eyebrows and eyes were full of laughter.

Ke Xiyuan seemed to have discovered something interesting, and turned back to Mother Wen and said, "Does Mrs. have any other instructions?" ”

Mother Wen is a smart person, and immediately understood what Ke Xiyuan meant, took out a stack of silver tickets from her pocket, and handed it to the little master beside Chen, "This is the sesame oil money that our wife added to the house this time." Mrs. said, although there is usually sesame oil, but recently the old lady in the house is not very healthy, and there are many happy events, Mrs. wants to seek the blessing of the Bodhisattva, so I must be sure to offer the sesame oil. In addition, many of us have been harassing the masters in the mountains for many days, so we ask the master to accept them. ”

Lichen squinted his eyes and smiled, "In this way, the old man is disrespectful." The female benefactor's wing room was arranged in the south, and it was the most rarely visited, and it was very clean. As for the prince and the guards, it is better to live in the north courtyard for the time being. What does the female benefactor think? ”

The last sentence is asking Ke Xiyuan. Ke Xiyuan smiled, "Since the master has arranged everything, the little girl has no opinion." Ke Xiyuan didn't expect that the acting host of Renyuan Temple was still greedy for money. Looking at the magnificence of the temple, there are a lot of men and women who come and go, but I am afraid that this old monk has made a lot of contributions.

When she returned to the wing room, she saw that the wing room was indeed cleaned up elegantly, and she could see a clump of bamboo outside the window, Ke Xiyuan's mood instantly improved. This old monk is indeed a person who can do things after receiving money. If I hadn't asked Mother Wen to take out the money just now, I don't know if I would be able to see the bamboo now.

Qiqiao and Jiuhui are the big girls next to Ke Xiyuan, and the two live in one room, next door to Ke Xiyuan. Qiqiao quickly cleaned up Ke Xiyuan's cage and said, "That old monk is very greedy for money!" Don't look at him with his eyes closed, he is staring at the silver ticket in Wen's mother's hand.

Ke Xiyuan had to admire the Lu family, presumably the Lu family already knew in his heart who this dust was. It's just that you can't look at the surface of everything. Although this is the case, there are still many people who come to Renyuan Temple, and there must be something different about it.

"Jiuhui, go and help me call Mother Wen over, I have something to ask her."

Jiuhui put down the rag, nodded and went out to find Wen's mother.

"You girl, don't say anything. In other people's territory, you dare to speak ill of others, be careful that the wall has ears. Ke Xiyuan felt that the girl Qiqiao was gradually relying too much on herself and lost her original vigilance.

Qiqiao was stunned for a while, and then he was annoyed again. I was talking about it again, I used to be by Wang's side, and there were times like this, at that time, because I was not in an important position, it didn't matter. But now, as the big girl next to Ke Xiyuan, how can she still make such a mistake?

Thinking of the successive mistakes today, Qiqiao was very frustrated. Ke Xiyuan and Luo's mother trusted themselves and handed over the position of the second-class girl to themselves, but they were full of mistakes.

"Qiqiao, don't always think that you are wrong again. Why don't you think about how you can be good next time? I don't need you to admit your mistakes, but I want you to recognize them! Luo's mother is now most likely to help me see my hospitalized child; Drunken Zhi is getting married, and his talent is not high enough; Only you are the one I want to bring to my side and use it with all my might. You have to know what you've done wrong and make sure you don't do it again next time. The same kind of mistake can be forgiven the first time, but the second time is stupid. Do you understand? ”

Qiqiao nodded, "Miss, you won't want me, will you?" I don't want to go back to the old lady now. ”

Ke Xiyuan chuckled, "Where can I find such a desirable girl as you?" Okay, wipe away your tears, Mother Wen is coming! Take advantage of this, you go to the kitchen and ask the little novice there, ask when you eat and when you settle down every day, and ask me carefully, so that we don't break other people's rules. ”

Qiqiao responded crisply, turned around and went out, just in time to meet Jiuhui and Wen's mother who came over.

Mother Wen wiped the sweat from her face and asked with a smile, "What is the matter with Miss calling the old slave?" But is there something that doesn't work out with you? If you have anything, just say it, and the old slave will definitely satisfy Miss. ”

Ke Xiyuan glanced around, "It's already very good to live here, I came to my mother, I just want to ask my mother about this Renyuan Temple." Because I didn't pay attention to these trivial matters before, and I didn't hear my mother talk about it, I wanted to ask my mother to talk about it and learn more about it, so as not to commit any taboos. ”

Mother Wen breathed a sigh of relief, "Miss, this is the right person, the old slave has been helping his wife come over to deliver sesame oil, and he has also had a lot of contact with Master Chen." Miss may not know that the abbot of this Renyuan Temple is a high-ranking monk. It is said that when Gaozu was alive, he was very close to the abbot. ”

Jiuhui brought two cups of tea, one was placed next to Ke Xiyuan, and one was handed to Mother Wen. Mother Wen was indeed thirsty, so she took the tea and thanked Ke Xiyuan and Jiuhui, drank it in one gulp, and said with a smile, "The old slave is really thirsty, don't be surprised, Miss!" ”

Ke Xiyuan waved her hand absently, and Mother Wen spoke eloquently.

It turned out that Renwonji Temple was not an outstanding temple before. Until the appearance of the abbot, there were more and more good men and women, and the incense became more and more prosperous.

Later, because a daughter of a family has not been able to get married, she came to the temple to seek marriage. Master Yuan met her unexpectedly and unsigned for her. It is only said that when she leaves the temple and walks north, she can meet Ruyi Langjun.

As a result, the woman went north with her servants, encountered robbers, and was rescued by a young man. The two fell in love at first sight, wrote a love story, and got married. As soon as this incident spread, the name of the fate became famous, and many people were convinced. In this way, the incense of Renyuan Temple is getting more and more prosperous, and more and more people are coming. In addition, the abbot is often in retreat, and not everyone sees it, so the meeting adds a layer of mystery to Renyuan Temple.

The abbot is now very old, and he often retreats and does not see outsiders, saying that he only sees people who are destined. Therefore, many dignitaries and nobles did not hesitate to invest in sesame oil, just to see the abbot once, and get a proverb from him. However, it always fails to return.

Ke Xiyuan frowned, saying this, Princess Ning came to Renyuan Temple to ask for a signature, which is not like a fake. It's just, could it be that I really have a fate with that disgusting ** crooked man? I will never admit that God let me live again, there is no reason to meet that crooked man. There must be something greasy in this, and she still doesn't believe it.

"Mother Wen, I just don't know what this acting host Master Chen likes?" , Ke Xiyuan looked at Mother Wen's eyes and didn't miss a trace of expression in her eyes.

A trace of embarrassment quickly flashed on Mother Wen's face, thinking of her wife's instructions to serve Miss Fifth wholeheartedly, so she thought about it and said euphemistically, "Master doesn't have any special preferences, but said that every year Mrs. will donate more sesame oil money." ”

Ke Xiyuan looked at Mother Wen's embarrassed face and felt a sigh of relief. It turns out that I love money! This makes sense. It's just that Ke Xiyuan hasn't figured out what link in this is what he missed? Princess Ning came to ask for a sign because she colluded with the Yu family? Or is Princess Ning just entering a game?

This qiē can only be done on this monk who has called Chen. Thinking of this, Ke Xiyuan said, "Mom also went to ask the master, where will I pray for my grandmother and the Ke family?" I need a quiet place. ”

Mother Wen is familiar with this when she says this, "Miss don't worry, the old slave will inquire about it early in the morning." In the Hall of the Arhats. Usually they pray there, and the young lady can go over after bathing tonight. ”

Ke Xiyuan nodded, pray for blessings here, and Luo's mother told her to divide the morning and evening. Get up at midnight in the morning to pray for blessings, and end at midnight; The evening begins at midnight and ends at midnight. After three days, the merit will be completed.

"There is Lao's mother, and my mother will go down to rest first. Everyone is tired today, and my mother remembers to tell the mother-in-law we brought to boil more hot water for the eldest brother. Today, the eldest brother is out of strength, and he is bound to need hot water to soak his body. And those guards, I also want the mother-in-law to send more water. Passing on my words, this time everyone has been meritorious, and when I go back, I will have to ask my grandmother for merit for them. ”

Mother Wen responded again and again, and retreated with a smile.

Qiqiao stood at the door, waited for Wen's mother to leave, and then walked in and said, "Miss, I'm going to confirm the time for dinner." The little novice on the stove told the slave maid that there would be no more fireworks in the temple at night, and that the water should be boiled before eating. However, he told the slaves that there was a small kitchen in the southern courtyard, and the slaves and maids could boil their own water. Miss, don't worry, the slave will arrange it for you properly to make you comfortable. ”

Ke Xiyuan shook his head, "Let's follow the rules of the temple, you go and talk to Mother Wen, let everyone follow the time in the temple, and don't break the rules of the temple." ”

Qiqiao didn't refute, "Mother Wen didn't think she would go far, so the slave went to chase her." ”

Ke Xiyuan nodded, closed her eyes, and her heart was racing again. Now, I came to Renyuan Temple as I wished. But where should you start? At present, June is not conducive to talking about marriage, but what should be done after June? Something must be done to quickly nip this in the cradle.
