Chapter 500: Straight Ahead
Being able to get the Buddhist scriptures copied by Fang Xiaoyu herself, and being able to hand them over to the old lady in her name, Wei was very happy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info She could already imagine the old lady with a smile in her eyes when she got the scroll.
The old lady eats fasting and recites Buddha all year round, and there are few things that interest her in the colorful world outside. Every year, new objects are added to the house, and the old lady doesn't even want a few pieces of beaded jewelry, and only makes two simple new clothes, which is about all. They are daughters-in-law, and they want to please the old lady in different ways, but unfortunately, the old lady seems to have no desire and no desire, and she is not interested in anything.
The old man once mentioned that the eldest brother has not been in good health since he was a child, which made the old lady break her heart. It was also at that time that the eldest brother almost passed once, and the old lady took care of it with her own hands without undressing, and she never closed her eyes for several days and nights. Later, the eldest brother's illness was temporarily suppressed, and the old lady went to the Buddhist temple to worship the Buddha and pray, maybe it was the real Buddha's blessing, or maybe it was just a coincidence, when the old lady returned home, the eldest brother's fever subsided, and he could get out of bed, so that the old lady could finally get out of bed with this breath in her heart, and after that, the old lady had been eating fast and chanting Buddha, and she was devout to the Buddha.
But even so, there is always daily life and going out to have fun. But after the eldest brother went two years ago, the old lady was almost tired of being in the Buddhist hall and rarely went out again. Even if you walk around the house, this time the number is pitiful. The only thing that can tell the old lady to go out is about which Buddhist temple to burn incense, or which monk to preach the Buddha, the old lady will go out to listen, and when she comes back, she will return to the Buddhist hall, pick up the Buddhist beads and start chanting.
Before the big event, there had been rumors in the capital that heavenly punishment was going to be lowered. Especially the princess of King An in front of her was rumored to be a god outside, what Buddha went up, what waved his hand to cause thunder, and what predicted disaster. The old lady listened to it at first, and disdainfully reprimanded that it was actually grandstanding and pretending to be a ghost.
Although there are a lot of people in the capital who don't believe those rumors, but the major Buddhist temples and Taoist temples and temples are all in battle, and even the emperor has issued a holy decree to take refuge in the people, on the day of the big event, although the old lady does not believe that the princess in this world can really communicate with the gods and Buddhas, but perhaps she is holding the idea of dying and going underground to see her son as soon as possible, and sent their whole family to the palace, but she herself has to go to the palace to take refuge.
The family tried to dissuade her several times, but she didn't listen, and they all insisted on staying in King An's mansion with the old lady. But the old lady was crying, making trouble and hanging herself, threatening them with death, and she had to let them either go to the Buddhist temple or the palace, and she was the only one who stayed in the Anwang Mansion, which was really unbearable for the old lady, and she couldn't do it, and the sister-in-law was also forced to die, so she persuaded the old lady to let her stay, and the rest went to the palace.
After that event, the capital was in shambles, and then began to rebuild. But after that day, the old lady was not convinced by this princess of King An. The house had just been rebuilt, and the smell of the new paint had not yet dissipated, so the old lady went around collecting things related to the princess of King An, and became her faithful follower.
Wei used to be extremely incomprehensible, after all, this Miss Fang is not very old, although it is rumored that she is the reincarnation of a god, and the emperor personally praised her as a Buddha girl, and because she saw the horror of that day's big event with her own eyes, she was also a little in awe, but it was far from the point of believing. But the old lady and sister-in-law followed the devil and didn't listen to anyone, but if they used Fang Xiaoyu to persuade them, it could make them think.
The family thought about it, believe it, if they believe that Fang Xiaoyu can make them out of the shadow of their eldest brother's death, and can make them regain hope in life, it is not a bad thing.
As a result, there have been a lot of posts in the house, hoping to invite Miss Fang, who became famous in the capital after the big event, to come to the house as a guest, but the posts have been lost in the sea and there has been no news.
After that, even Fang Xiaoyu himself barely appeared in front of people again, so this matter gradually went out.
However, gradually there were some things related to Fang Xiaoyu from King An's mansion, among which her hand-copied scriptures were the most popular. As soon as it appeared, it was snatched up, and the old lady wanted to get a volume so much, but she couldn't get it, which has always made the old lady very unwilling.
They have also been paying attention to whether there is anything else that can be used to please the old lady, but there are too few things related to this Miss Fang, and King An's mansion is closed, and even the prince of King An has not gone to court, and there are gradually various rumors outside, but they have never been confirmed, and the matter is over.
The old lady rarely wants something very much, she wants to please the old lady, and she also sits on the position of the Duchess of the country, hoping that when the second brother comes to make trouble again, the old lady wants to stand on her side for the overall situation, she has always wanted to go to King An's Mansion in person to ask for a book of scriptures, but unfortunately King An's Mansion is still closed to refuse guests, and she can't break in.
"In this way, I thanked the princess and the princess. Please stay in the garden for a while, and when everyone is here, I will take you to enjoy the strange flower. The Wei family led the eldest princess and Fang Xiaoyu to the Hundred Gardens, and at this time, many ladies were already talking in twos and threes.
The garden is full of flowers, and many flowers that should not bloom in this season are also blooming, and looking at these flowers blooming in the wind for a while, it makes people feel a lot more comfortable.
Wei was born in a scholarly family, and he has a father who is particularly familiar with plants and likes them. She has been exposed to it since she was a child, especially fond of all kinds of bright or elegant flowers, and is also a good hand at cultivating flowers. Even if dying plants fall into her hands, most of them can be revived. So although she was born as a concubine, her good family education and her ability to raise flowers and love flowers made many people feel bad about her.
Coupled with the situation of the Lu State Mansion, no one in the capital knows. There are two sons-in-law, one is dead, and the position of the prince of the country cannot be vacant, and the appearance of the second son-in-law cannot be vacant...... Forget it, no one likes to mention this waste. Rather than letting such a person sit in the position of Lu Guogong, it is better to give it to the concubine, at least this concubine is very good except for the identity of the concubine. Therefore, the upper circle easily accepted this duchess from a concubine.
Seeing that the eldest princess had arrived, many ladies led the young ladies of the family to greet her, and even saw Fang Xiaoyu beside the eldest princess, and many people didn't react for a while how she was here.
There are more ladies who want to befriend Fang Xiaoyu, but they are old, and they have to intersect with each other, and it seems that they can't hold their faces, so the ladies from various mansions have been pushed to the front desk, and all kinds of enthusiastic calls for Fang Xiaoyu are a little unbearable.
Fang Xiaoyu also felt a little trance. Remembering that not long ago, she was still a famous wooden lady in the capital, and in the eyes of young ladies and sons of the same age, she was about like a statue, and she didn't care about people, she didn't go out often, she didn't have friends and girlfriends to talk to, and she didn't look like a talented woman.
After dealing with the greetings of the young ladies for a while, Fang Xiaoyu was finally able to take a breath. She left the crowd and stood in a remote corner admiring a small red and yellow flower, a rare breath of relief.
There was a sound of light footsteps behind her, Fang Xiaoyu hurriedly turned around with a smile, and saw that it was the eldest princess walking towards her with a smile on her face, and her face was also a little tired, thinking that she had slipped out after coping with the greetings of ladies from all walks of life.
"Why don't you play with those young ladies, and hide in this corner and sigh?" The eldest princess couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw Fang Xiaoyu's undisguised relieved appearance. It is rare to see such a calm Fang Xiaoyu, her daughter is fundamentally different from the ladies of other families, but she can't say what the specific difference is. Is it about the state of mind?
Fang Xiaoyu was of course relieved. Speaking of which, she is thousands of years old, and when she looks at those old men and old ladies who think that they are children, let alone playing with a bunch of real children, she is really uncomfortable.
"I really can't play with them, swimming in the lake, fishing, reciting poems, squeezing others openly and secretly, forming gangs and gangs together, it's really boring and tight." Fang Xiaoyu shook his head, and then said, "What's more, if I am with them, I will either be asked if I am the reincarnation of an immortal?" Or just ask if it's okay to treat me well? How should I respond to them? ”
The eldest princess was overwhelmed by Fang Xiaoyu's embarrassment at the moment, and when she thought about Fang Xiaoyu and a group of innocent young ladies and sons, she also felt that it was really difficult for her.
"This time I went back to Beijing, but there was something important?" In the eldest princess's heart, it should be something important for Fang Xiaoyu to rush back from Da Zhou thousands of miles away. When she returned to Beijing, she didn't immediately enter the palace to see the emperor's brother, but came to relieve her first, she was moved in her heart is one thing, but she was also worried that the emperor's brother would blame her.
"My father told me to come back." Fang replied with a smile.
"General? Could it be that something happened to Beiyan? The eldest princess was immediately in a hurry. Now, Fang Jianzhang is her reliance for the rest of her life, and she really wants to grow old with him, so she really can't see him miss a little.
"Mother, don't worry. Dad said that there was something wrong with my mother these days, but he didn't know how to comfort him as a big man, and he felt that if he let it go, he was afraid that it would make you think cranky, and in the end, don't hurt your body and heart. Aunt Jinyi's position is not good to say this to her mother, Mu Yi is a child, Haozhi is even more inappropriate, after thinking about it, I am the only one who can persuade my mother, so my father sent me back. Fang Xiaoyu almost told the eldest princess all of Fang Jianzhang's thoughts. If this doesn't make her want to open more, then no matter how much she says, she may not be able to persuade the person who has drilled the horns.
"Are you...... Came back for me? The eldest princess didn't seem to expect that the incident of returning to Beijing, which she originally thought was very serious, was because of her, and her heart was sour, swollen, and warm at the moment.
"It's not, day and night, it's just that BMW is going to die of half a life." Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile.
"You kid, you are not careful on the road, what are you doing in such a hurry? Tired or not? Do you want to go back to the house for a while? The eldest princess touched Fang Xiaoyu's head, feeling pity in her heart. Her eyesight is not bad, and she can naturally see Fang Xiaoyu's dusty aura. I'm afraid that the bet she said before was also to find a formal excuse for her dusty appearance.
"It's fine, it's the same to rest after the feast. And I can't stay in the capital for a few days, and there are still some things that I need to do in person over there in Dazhou. Fang Xiaoyu really wasn't ready to stay in the capital for a long time. The hostility between the court and the rivers and lakes on the side of the Great Zhou, she wants to watch it in person. And she was afraid that when she was away, Xiao would make some kind of moths to those people, and she would make extraneous branches.
"It's important to come back and do what? It doesn't matter here, you need to put down your business and come back. The eldest princess was already faintly guilty at this time.
It is said that her identity is really not so cautious, but maybe she has not completely stepped out of the shadow brought to her by the failed marriage in the past, she seems to be in order after marrying into the Zhenyuan General's Mansion, but she has always been too cautious to get along with them, in fact, everyone has found out, but they can't say. You can't always ask her what she is afraid of in person, and she is careful for fear of breaking the fragile tea set.
"But Dad, she doesn't worry about Mother. This is the father's love for the mother, as a daughter, you have to give your father a face, right? Fang Xiao blinked mischievously, and his tone was relaxed.
"General......" The eldest princess was so moved that she almost cried, Fang Xiaoyu hurriedly reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and whispered: "Mother, don't cry, this is still outside." cried in front of outsiders, and there should be some strange rumors in Beijing tomorrow. If my mother is moved, when we go back to the general's mansion later, my mother will go back to her room and cover her head with a quilt and cry, and when I return to the northwest, I will tell my father, but my mother is moved to tears. ”
There are not many people who dare to talk to the eldest princess like this. What's more, when Fang Xiaoyu comforted others, he always went straight to the point, and he didn't ink at all.
At the end of the day, it's a story of fear of repeating the mistakes of the past. Now one party has used practical actions to tell her that the rut has been wiped away countless times, and the road to which the new rut leads is a bright future, and there is no need to worry about these things at all.
"You kid, why are you always not serious." The eldest princess's face was flushed with shame, and in order to hide the mood of laughing or crying at this moment, she raised her hand and printed a brain meltdown on Fang Xiaoyu's head.
"It hurts." Fang Xiaoyu smiled and rubbed his head.
"Hurt you?" The eldest princess hurriedly wanted to rub Fang Xiaoyu, but when she saw Fang Xiaoyu's smiling and teasing appearance, she immediately knew that she had been fooled again. (To be continued.) )
