Chapter 65: The Buddha of the Dao

readx; (It's late today, sorry sorry)

“…… 300 stones of Qiansu, 30 horses of silk, 20 horses of cotton, 30 catties of tea, 50 jars of wine, and ......" The carriage of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion drove to the mansion of Li Qi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Qiaozhi crossed his fingers in the carriage to Songyan, who went to the banquet, and counted Shao Ding's annual salary. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Songyan tugged at the silver and red pleated skirt he was wearing today, and he didn't care about going to the banquet at this time, and he only frowned and listened in the face of whether many nobles were panicked.

Shui Er wanted to speak on the side, but didn't dare to stop her, so she had to wait for her to stop, and secretly flattened the folds she pulled out with her hands.

Qiaozhi finished counting, glanced at Songyan's expression, and said, "It is said that the Hou Ye is not subject to official positions, and he has been back for a few years, and he has not been to the court, and he is still responsible for the position of marshal of the Northern Army, so this is only half of the money." ”

Songyan calculated the ledger and said, "Even so, it's still not right. Since the founding of the Dingyuan Hou Mansion, there must always be a field shop, and these proceeds may be included in the account of the outer courtyard, but there are two courtyards in the inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion, and this daily expense will not be only two thousand taels of silver in any case. ”

Qiaozhi and Shui'er glanced at each other, lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak, Songyan thought for a while and asked, "How many days have the two aunts of Emerald Red Silk been here?" ”

Qiaozhi hurriedly said, "The two aunts are still like in the past, and when the prince gets out of the outer courtyard to study, they will take them to practice boxing in the backyard. ”

"Boxing?" This is something Shui Er has never heard of, so she couldn't help but repeat it, when Song Yan hadn't changed into Yan Furong's body, she heard a few words, and then listened quietly.

Qiaozhi waved his hand and said, "No matter what the two aunts say, they are just two inner courtyard girls, probably playing with the prince." ”

She thought about it, looked excited, and said, "Now that we are finally polite in Zhengqiu Hall, the sisters in Qixia Courtyard have greeted me when they see me." ”

Shui'er, who is always timid on weekdays, couldn't help but laugh when she saw her like this, and whispered, "Look at what you said, no matter what, it's all from the same house, and it's usually a greeting." ”

Qiaozhi said, "It's different, I usually greet people with my nose, but now I greet them with my mouth." ”

Both the pine smoke and the water laughed.

When they arrived at the mansion of the Ministry of Rites, Fang entered the door, and heard a faint sound of drama from a distance, Qiaozhi and Shui'er had never heard a play in the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, at this time they all pricked up their ears, and Songyan saw it, and went with them. After getting out of the carriage, there was a woman wearing a garnet red skirt and an apricot yellow jacket standing in front of the weeping flower door, it was the Feng who loved to talk very much, and behind her stood a cardamom age girl half a step by mistake, with a half-white shirt and a red thread skirt, dressed very flatteringly. Seeing Songyan, Feng greeted him with a smile, "My sister is here, in the courtyard of this singing opera, the ceiling has already been erected, and it is very lively!" ”

Songyan wouldn't deal with her excessive enthusiasm, so she had to purse her lips and smile, but Feng didn't think she was rude, just looked at her skirt and smacked her tongue, "This skirt is so beautiful!" ”

Song Yan looked at herself, the skirt was nothing unusual, knowing that it was Yan Furong's appearance that covered Feng's eyes, she said with a smile, "The needlework team in the house made it, if you like it, let them make a paper pattern and bring it to you another day." ”

Feng Shi sighed, stepped forward and grabbed Song Yan's hand, and said, "This relationship is good, it's boring and tight in the house on weekdays, and making clothes is very interesting." A few days ago, I was a guest at Mrs. Zhou Shilang's house, and she wore a goose yellow green jacket, which is really beautiful......"

Songyan saw that she didn't finish talking, and wanted to laugh, looked at the girl on the side, was hung aside, her face was slightly sad, and said, "This is ......"

Feng was about to say that the garden of Zhou Shilang's house was not well repaired, but after she asked, she patted her forehead and said regretfully, "I forgot to introduce it, this is my sister, who is called Yuan Niang on weekdays." ”

Li Yuanniang came forward to greet Songyan with her head held high, and she didn't look at Songyan's praised skirt. Shui Er handed a purse to the side, and Songyan gently pushed it to the side, lifting up half of his sleeve. She wore a thumb-thick gold bracelet on both hands today, but it didn't look bulky because of the delicate carved peony patterns, so she pulled one out and gave it to Li Yuanniang as a meeting gift. Li Yuanniang was stunned for a moment, and her arrogant appearance disappeared all of a sudden, and she glanced at Feng Shi, who was overjoyed, and thanked Songyan again. Song Yan smiled and asked her not to be polite, she felt that this Miss Li was cute, and she changed her face very quickly, and now she peeked at her appearance from time to time, but she was a little ashamed.

Feng saw that Songyan was close to his husband and sister, and felt more and more that he was right to insist on posting to Songyan that day. Such an approachable beauty, I don't know how those people gossip around, and they become unbearable people. She didn't remember the embarrassment of eavesdropping on others, so she stepped forward and grabbed Songyan's hand and chattered and gossiped.

Song Yan deliberately asked quietly who was on the stage, and Feng hated to tell her what clothes and jewelry each lady was wearing. Songyan listened carefully, picking up the key points and writing them down. When I arrived at the place, it was really lively, Feng led Songyan and Li Yuanniang to the second floor of the small building where the ladies were located, Li Yuanniang went upstairs and went to take care of herself in the direction of the young ladies gathering, Feng and Songyan went to the place where the ladies and wives gathered together, the old lady of the Li family was listening attentively to the spring and autumn match sung on the stage, and the dressed Hua Dan sang "Shame to answer and go out......

Feng brought Songyan to greet him, and Mrs. Li reluctantly glanced at it, then smiled and said Okay, let the mothers on the side bring pear candy to Songyan to eat. Song Yan saw that her eyes were cloudy, and guessed that she might be unconscious, and Feng Shi on the side had already laughed and said, "Mother, how old is this Dingyuan Marquis, why do you still treat her as a child." ”

Mrs. Li turned a deaf ear, stared at the stage and watched attentively, applauding from time to time, Feng led Songyan and other officials' wives to say hello, because they were still listening to the play, they quickly settled down, Songyan just sat down, she felt that there were a few lines of sight on her body, she picked up the teacup as if nothing happened, and looked in the direction of the sight from the lid of the teacup, and saw that it was Li Yuanniang and a few young ladies who were talking to each other, looking at her from time to time.

Song Yan was a little confused, and he couldn't make any big noises when he thought about a few little girls, so he didn't pay attention to it, and Feng Shi on the same side gossiped. Feng Shi rarely met a peer, and was willing to listen to his own nagging, and happily talked about a few teas, Songyan listened seriously, and gave a response from time to time, Feng Shi said and said, he suddenly sighed, and said, "I'm really happy today, if Mrs. Qiu also comes, it will be better." ”

She was afraid that Songyan didn't know who she was talking about, and said, "The wife of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites has a good relationship with me on weekdays, and her daughter married to another place. This Mrs. Qiu doesn't come out and walk around much these days. ”

Song Yan saw that she was sad and was about to comfort her, but the emotion on Feng's face was suddenly replaced by a mysterious look, she looked around and no one was paying attention, and then she came over and said, "I also heard that Mrs. Qiu has set up a small ancestral hall at home to worship the Buddha. ”

Song Yan looked at her, and before she understood what it meant, Feng Shi had already said disdainfully, "Although some people in the people believe in these Buddhadharmas, I never expected that Mrs. Qiu's identity would also follow." ”

She pointed to the top and whispered, "It's not like I saw the direction of the wind up and followed the swing." ”
