On the second day, after breakfast, the ancestral hall of Rongfu was opened, and three animal sacrifices were offered, two hundred gold foil ingots, and five hundred silver foil ingots.

Rong Hai was not there, so Rong Jiang led the descendants of Rong Mansion to worship in front of the spirit of Old Lady Qiao and removed the filial piety curtain. Rong Jiang, Rong Yu and others except for service.

Because in Puci Temple, I want to do a water and land dojo, and I just moved. At that time, the gate was opened, and Rongjiang and Rongyu each rode a tall horse. Behind it is the sedan chair of Ma's, Du's, and the concubines in the next room. Rong Zheng and Rong Xiao shared a flat-headed black lacquered green mantle car. The nurses kept them firmly in the middle.

In the mule cart behind were the maids and women who followed. The ladies are still self-conscious, and they don't look at it casually. However, the maids who are usually not able to go out are more and more happy, pull up the curtains, and look out at the market, chirping like birds out of the cage.

They did not clear the site and did not set up a curtain, so many onlookers gathered on the side of the road. Their team drove very slowly, and finally got out of the Caishui River Gate, then turned around and headed north.

The altar has already been set up on the side of Puci Temple, and Master Yuankong is wearing a red robe, standing with Master Yuanjing, the presiding master of the temple, waiting for the arrival of the Rong family.

Although the Rong family is a big family, it is not a noble family now, and it is completely because Rong Yu is willing to spend money to get today's courtesy.

At the beginning of the afternoon, the Rong family's family members arrived at Puci Temple.

When the Rong family arrived at the temple, some monks invited them to rest in the prepared wing. After shaking in the car for an hour, Rong Xiao was slightly dizzy.

"You go back and rest a little, and after two quarters of an hour it's time to go over and kneel." Du's face was also a little tired.

Rong Xiao answered yes. He Rongzheng, who turned around and smiled, said, "Third sister, let's go to see where we live." ”

Rong Zheng glanced at Ma, who was instructing the maid who came with him to take care of the affairs, and her half-sister followed in front of her to learn to take care of affairs. Where does the Ma family still have the strength to take care of this daughter who is separated from the belly. Rong Zheng thought for a while, stepped forward and said, "Madam, if it's okay, my fourth sister and I will go back to the room to rest for a while." ”

Ma smiled and said, "Okay, you can go." "Dealt with Rong Zheng's sentence. Immediately talked to the mother-in-law next to him again.

Rong Zheng's lips pursed, and he wanted to say something, but he finally took it back, turned around and went with Rong Xiao to the wing room placed in the west.

Rong Xiao was unwell. The maid was busy laying out the kang and asked Rong Xiao to rest.

Rong Zheng sat in the next room. Zi Su asked Mei Fen and the others who accompanied her to sort out the baggage they brought, and she took out the tea leaves she brought, and went to urge water to prepare tea for Rong Zheng.

Rong Zheng saw that the room was extremely clean, and there was a faint smell of sandalwood. There are a few new willows and two scriptures on the table. Bamboo curtains with black lacquer are hung. The tables and chairs are painted black, and they are solemn.

After a while, Shisu made tea and said with a smile: "Miss must be hot and thirsty, drink some hot tea first." I've heard that iftar is going to be eaten soon. When the slave and maid inquired, they said that the rice was millet porridge with pickles and steamed buns. The temple is just these things, and it certainly doesn't have the delicacy of our home. Miss, you'll just have some. ”

Rong Zheng said slowly: "What do I pay attention to here, naturally I have something to eat." ”

Zi Su blushed and said, "Miss is right!" ”

Rong Zheng sat for a while and felt a little sleepy, so in order to relieve his sleepiness, he wanted to go out for a walk. She was afraid of disturbing Rong Xiao, who was resting. Tiptoed out.

In the quiet Zen courtyard, two trees are planted in the corner, one black locust and one elm. The elm tree was the thickness of two people hugging each other. Pale golden sunlight shone through the branches and leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground.

The courtyard door was halfway open, and the servants of the Rong family came and went in an orderly manner. Rong Zheng saw Wan Dahe's family coming out of the room where the Ma family lived again, with a smile on his face, and he was talking to the maid next to him. Wan Dahe's family saw Rong Zheng standing under the elm tree, and glanced over here, but finally did not come up to say hello to Rong Zheng. happily talked to the people in front of him and went out.

After a while, I saw Rong Sheng send Nagarjuna's daughter-in-law out, and Nagarjuna's daughter-in-law was full of humility.

Zi Su was with Rong Zheng, and she remembered what Xiao Wang had said, and she couldn't help but be a little worried about Rong Zheng. It seems that Mrs. really doesn't let the young lady participate in these things at home, and doesn't let her learn how to run the house. What to do in the future?

Zi Su was afraid that Rong Zheng would be annoyed, so he smiled and said to her: "Miss, let's go for a walk elsewhere, it's weird and stuffy here." ”

Rong Zheng said: "It's not better than at home, it's not good to run around." After a while, the altar will be opened. If my wife doesn't see me, I'm afraid I'll be even more annoyed. ”

Rong Zheng understood Zi Su and Xiao Wang's worries. She thinks that she can't fight for the right to manage the family with Ma head-on, not because she can't do it well, or because she is cowardly, but because she can recognize the reality, and she doesn't have such an opportunity yet.

The so-called water and land dojo, except for some rituals, the rest is chanting. They are going to stay here for three days, that is to say, they are going to kneel for three days.

Master Yuanjing only showed one side, and most of the scriptures were recited by the two masters, Yuankong and Yuanyi.

Rong Zheng saw Master Yuankong and couldn't help but think of Mu Xuanlai. Xindao may not be able to shave his ordination in a few years, and he will sit under the disciple of the empty seat, so on an occasion like today, will he show up to preach the scriptures? Rong Zheng thought of the last time Mu Xuan pinched her neck in the palace, and said in his heart, can such a person who wants to take other people's lives at every turn also let the Bodhisattva cross him?

She didn't listen very seriously, but after kneeling for nearly two hours, her knees were completely sore. When he stood up, his calves trembled slightly, and his legs had no strength at all. She hadn't fully straightened up before she fell down again, slumping on the futon.

The maid hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Third Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”

Rong Zheng's face was a little pale and said, "It's nothing, just rest for a while." ”

Ma Shi saw that Rong Zheng was not very good, so he also sent a maid to visit, and he didn't ask much when he saw that there was nothing wrong.

Zi Su helped Rong Zheng rub his legs, and Rong Zheng sat for a while, not daring to move casually.

Before going to bed at night, Ma Shi came to Rong Zheng's room and said to her: "If you can't hold on, I'll let someone send you back tomorrow morning." ”

In the face of Ma's kindness, Rong Zheng pondered for a moment before saying, "It doesn't matter, I'm not so delicate yet." ”

Rong Xiao looked at Rong Zheng with some surprise, and said in her heart that her third sister is stupid, such a good opportunity is better to go home and rest for two days, if you can't eat and sleep well here, isn't it just a crime?

Ma also thought that Rong Zheng would readily agree, and this answer surprised her a little.

Rong Zheng thought that she didn't want to leave a bad impression in front of her father, after all, she was doing things for her grandmother, and she would stick to it no matter how uncomfortable she was. (To be continued.) )
