Chapter 4 Sisterhood
"Old lady, do you know, this Guanyin seems to have been opened by Master Pudu of Dabei Temple, how can our young lady have so much silver is to sell all her jewelry, just buy such a statue, the entire Qinglong, that's it..."
"Red Sleeves, shut up and see if you can stick it up. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Master Pudu of the Temple of Great Compassion?
When the old lady heard this, she was distressed and angry, and she slapped her hand holding the Buddha beads on the table, looking at Bai Shuirou and frowning.
"At such a young age, so impetuous, how can the Guanyin Buddha statue be compared with worldly gold and silver? The mud bodhisattva is also a Buddha statue, punish you to think about it behind closed doors for a month, and then copy the Diamond Sutra a hundred times, don't be delusional and lazy, my old woman has to check it every day. ”
Bai Shuirou was stunned again when she heard this, and thought about it behind closed doors for half a month? What else do you copy? Wouldn't the Peach Blossom Festival after January be in time?
"Grandmother, I know it's wrong. I didn't mean to push her, I... Grandmother..."
It's useless for Bai Shuirou to admit her mistake now.
Do you still want to fight her for this little trick? She is too troublesome, and it is all a small dish for tooth sacrifice.
Bai Shuixin appropriately showed the deep sisterhood again.
"Grandmother, Sister Shui Rou didn't mean it, since the Bodhisattva has been broken, it's useless to punish again, it's better to reduce the punishment for half a month"
After listening to the words, the old lady became more and more satisfied with Bai Shuixin, generous and decent, neither humble nor arrogant, and she was beautiful with everyone, and sure enough, the daughter of the Gu family was incomparable to these cats and dogs.
"Since the Tian family is entangled in affairs, then Shui Xin will be personally taught by me in the future, and I will compare those talented women in the capital to her."
"Mother!" Tian exhaled lightly, although the old lady is not from a big family, but after so many ups and downs, what she can learn is not a star.
"Okay, I'll make a free decision, and when I go back, I'll bring all the monthly examples of Shuixin over the years, and I'll keep it without bothering you."
Tian's little trick, the old lady saw through it at a glance.
"I'm tired, the heart of the water stays"
The old lady has given an eviction order.
Tian's mother and daughter glared at Aunt Jing, who was watching the play, before reluctantly getting up and leaving.
The old lady pulled Bai Shuixin again, sat next to herself, looked left and right, on her bun, there was a silver hairpin, and a silver bracelet on her arm, there was no color, and it was worthless at first glance.
The body is wearing the style of the eighteenth year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, and the wound on the forehead is even more terrifying when you look closely.
"Poor boy, I've hurt you"
Touching Bai Shuixin's hair, the old lady's eyes at this time showed real feelings, after all, blood is thicker than water, this is her own granddaughter.
Agent Bai Shuixin's acting skills are excellent, biting his basically bloodless lip, and shaking his head slightly, in the eyes of the old lady, it is another manifestation of reason.
patted Bai Shuixin's hand, and put a high-grade jade bracelet inlaid with agate in Chijin on his hand on Bai Shuixin's hand.
"You gave your grandmother such a big gift, but you can't let you lose it."
Bai Shuixin lowered her eyebrows with a little weakness, this thing, really like Bai Shuirou said, is just a ball of mud, but it was created by her skillful hands, and she was really afraid that she couldn't hide that the old lady was sharp-eyed, so she planned a scene where she was pushed and accidentally broke the Bodhisattva.
"It's a pity that the Buddha statue has been broken, but my granddaughter heard that the ancient Guyuan master's hand-copied scripture "Fourteen Lectures on Buddhism" is circulating in the market, whether it is true or false, if it is true, the granddaughter will try her best to ask for you."
In this way, you can go out to wander in the name of seeking scriptures~
"You have a heart, but the money is not enough, so you go to the account office to collect it, and say that it was ordered by my old woman."
Bai Shuixin immediately showed a flattered look, he didn't bring a penny, not only took back a little interest from Tian's mother and daughter, the old lady's bracelet, and the most important thing for many years is to have such a backer as the old lady.
Hurriedly thanked the old lady, and after sitting with the old lady for a while, he saw that the old man was tired, so he left with red sleeves.
The old lady looked at Bai Shuixin's back for a while.
Mama Liu behind her said, "Old lady, do you think today's eldest lady is different?" ”
The old lady kowtowed and said, "You can see it too?" ”
"The old slave feels that today's eldest lady is simply a different person, no longer as tolerated everywhere as before, and the second miss is also very harsh in words, maybe the eldest lady is enlightened."
Mama Liu has served the old lady for many years, so she naturally knows what the old lady is thinking.
"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, I think about it a lot, I hope that I will be satisfied to see a few children in peace and security in my lifetime, this Tian family is really too much."
After Bai Shuixin returned to the "Guisi Garden", he was shocked by the newly renovated courtyard.
I saw that the entrance was a zigzag verandah, and the stones under the steps were long and long. There are two or three rooms above, one bright and two dark, inside are all beds according to the case, the dazzling furnishings add an atmosphere, from the inside in, the purple veil hangs on both sides of the carved bed, and the inside is covered with a soft cloud brocade quilt. A daffodil on the table stands like a fairy in a vase of blue and white porcelain from the official kiln, adding a touch of aura to the room.
"Guisi Garden" was originally Gu Ruolan, the courtyard of the former Lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it was the best south side of the Xiangfu Feng Shui. Because Gu Ruolan left miserably, the prime minister felt guilty and never stepped into this garden, Bai Shuixin was an orphan girl, and under Tian's deliberate rectification, it fell into disrepair for a long time, and no one cleaned it before there was an empty and sad scene. Now, the old lady sent someone to clean up, and within two hours it was restored to its former appearance.
"Miss, this... Is this still our yard? ”
Redsleeves' dumbfounded voice rang in Bai Shuixin's ears.
It is false to say that he is not moved, although he knows that the old lady is using herself to suppress the Tian family, after all, she is the actual beneficiary.
"Of course it is, Aunt Gui Siyuan's housekeeper!"
Bai Shuixin laughed.
Red Sleeves was slightly stunned, stomped his feet and ran away, shuttling among the large and small houses in the yard like butterflies.
"Miss, the kitchenette is so clean!"
"Miss, the house I live in has a new quilt!"
"Miss, your house is so beautiful!"
"Miss..."
Looking at the smiling eyebrows and eyes of the red sleeves, Bai Shuixin shook his head and returned to his house, this is just his first step, the revenge of the Tian family for killing the original owner has not been avenged, it is estimated that the death of the mother is not unrelated to the Bai family, the Bai family has not spit out the dowry of the mother, and the things they have done are far from enough.
Now that I have money in my hand, where do I start to build my own industry? Lowering his head and seeing this thin body bone, he couldn't help but be weak, and the difference between him and his previous self was not half a star.
In a daze, I fell asleep, last night I rushed to make the mud bodhisattva, and in the morning it was a war of words. Rao is iron body can't bear it, let alone Bai Shuixin, who is covered in wounds.
Bai Shuixin woke up only when a burst of fragrance aroused the gluttonous worms in his stomach.
There is a bowl of porridge on the table of the high-quality golden silk nanmu with two side dishes.
The hungry Bai Shuixin immediately pounced, grabbed the spoon and shook it and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hmm... Delicious... Red Sleeves, you still have this craft."
sighed with satisfaction, I'll open a restaurant for you to be the chef of the town store, and a business plan is formed in my mind.
was gobbling up, and Red Sleeves, who was holding a plate of side dishes and a kettle, walked in.
"Miss, you're awake"
"Come on, Redsleeves, who taught you this craft?"
"Slave... I learned from Aunt Zhang in the kitchen, no one gave us food before, I often went to the kitchen to steal, and I got acquainted with Aunt Zhang when I came and went" Red sleeves Xu remembered the hard days before, and his eyes were slightly red.
"Well, now we have a small kitchen, and the old lady has allocated money, so we are no longer afraid of hunger."
Bai Shui's heart was slightly sad, before he settled in this body, it seemed that the original owner's life was in dire straits.
Almost overnight, Bai Shuixin changed men's clothes with red sleeves on the pretext of mentioning the old lady's hand-copied scriptures to the master of the source of the old lady, took the old lady's hand card, and ran out of the house happily.
Standing on the street, a little panicked, last time it was secretly out at night, bluestone pavement. There are vendors selling along the street on both sides, some selling sugar gourds, some selling clay figurines, some selling painted sugar, buying rouge gouache, and all kinds of things.
The whole bazaar.
In his previous life, as an agent, he rarely had the opportunity to go shopping. It's so lively today, and I'm busy pulling my red sleeves and drilling into the crowd.
Just like Grandma Liu's Grand View Garden, everything is novel, no, you can't see people in a blink of an eye.
I grabbed a candy man in my hand, I wanted it, and I didn't have any silver in my pocket, so I just stuffed all the money into Red Sleeves.
"Childe, if you don't buy it, let it go if you don't buy it"
Bai Shuixin glanced at the vendor.
If you don't have any money, you can buy it
Suddenly, she smiled evilly, her bright eyes moved, and she quickly took a bite of the candy man, and immediately put it back.
"Don't buy it!"
When the words fell, he pulled his legs and ran.
In the blink of an eye, the person disappeared.
The boss of the candy seller was sure that he was really not dazzled, so he cursed "bad luck", looked around to see that no one found it, brushed the sugar man with another layer of sugar silk, and put it back.
Red sleeves ran as they ran, and a group of people were looking for Bai Shuixin in the crowd, tired of the little girl.
"Young Master, don't run away!"
Bai Shuixin knew that Red Sleeves was worried, stuck out his tongue, and whispered sorry at the corners of his mouth.
"Miss, didn't you say that you came out this time to do something big?"
"Oh, it's bad, you don't say I forgot, go, take me to the busiest street."
What catches in front of you is the carved eaves reflecting the sun, and the painting is flying clouds. The blue curtain is low and the window is low, and the green curtain is high on the door. Kill drunk eyes and lean on the sky. This is Luoyang's gold cave, and the women in the "Moon Tower" are all the best in the world, and the gentleness of men.
On the other side, Baiping Ferry, Red Knotweed Beachhead. The green locust on the side of the building cries wild birds, and the green willows in front of the door are flowers. This building is the first floor of Luoyang, known as the "Reflecting Sun Building", and a meal is worth a thousand gold. It is people's evaluation of Yingri, the chef inside is only better than the royal chef, and the person behind it is the mythical "Han Wangye" of Luoyang City.
The people behind Mochizuki didn't know, only once the Ministry of Rites Shangshu drank wine and made trouble in Mochizuki, and the next day, the evidence of corruption and perversion of the law was presented in the emperor's dragon case, Long Yan was furious, and the nine clans copied it.
Next to Mochizuki is an inconspicuous restaurant called "Bora Restaurant". Compared to the other two, which are really depressed, the guys are listless, and the shopkeeper holds his chin and flips the abacus and sighs again and again.
Bai Shuixin's eyes lit up, and he pulled his red sleeves in.
"Shopkeeper, is your boss here?"
"We are a restaurant, let's have fun and go to the side to look at the moon"
"No wonder it's so much that this is your hospitality?"
"The restaurant is going to be closed, what kind of guests are you waiting for?"
The work on the side was with a towel on his shoulder, and his eyes were clouded looking at Bai Shuixin.
"So, you're interested in selling?"
I was happy, I was really sleepy, and someone sent a pillow.
When the shopkeeper heard this, this little brother had an extraordinary bearing, and he deliberately took down the restaurant between his words, and he hurriedly changed his attentive face and said with a smile.
"Little brother, what do you have to do? To tell you the truth, the boss is willing to transfer this building. ”
"Oh? What about the price? ”
"This son, you see that I am also a mere shopkeeper, today is unfortunate, the boss is not in the building, I will convey the boss later, ask you to come back another day?"
