227 Picking People (Two Chapters in One)
Buddhism was extremely prevalent in the Bactria Dynasty. There are temples in all state capitals and counties. The common people have the habit of worshiping the Buddha, and the major temples have even launched various vegetarian meditation rooms for this purpose, not to mention the continuous expansion, just to provide a better environment for the pilgrims.
After all, not only the young ladies and ladies of the big family have the habit of putting incense on the fifteenth day of every month, but also the queen and funeral concubine in the palace are also allowed to come out to make incense.
However, those people in the palace generally go to Huangjue Temple.
There is a Guanyin Mountain outside Changshun City, there is a White Pagoda Temple on Guanyin Mountain, the White Pagoda Temple covers an area that is not large in all the temples of the Great Xia Dynasty, but it is extremely famous. Although it is not as good as a royal temple like Huangjue Temple, the reputation among the people is very loud, and in terms of seniority, it is ranked in the top three.
According to legend, there was a great good man in Changshun City, surnamed Ge, one year, the land where Changshun City is located was in a great drought, and the people were struggling to make a living, almost to the extent that the whole city was overturned.
Ge Dashan people saw this extremely unbearable, one night, he suddenly dreamed that an unknown hill outside Changshun City was full of light, there seemed to be colorful auspicious clouds floating on it, looming, vaguely seemed to see the net bottle in the hand of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the net bottle mouth downward, the blue shining pure water inside poured down......
When he woke up, he found the unknown hill and spent his savings to build a statue of Guanyin on the mountain.
Sure enough, a miracle fell from the sky, and on the day when the statue of Guanyin was completed, heavy rain poured down. The calamity disappeared, and the people lived a plain and happy life again.
Since then, the place has been called Guanyin Mountain.
And because this statue of Guanyin has brought blessings to people since its establishment, the incense here has been prosperous.
After many years, the White Horse Temple was built on the former site of Guanyin Mountain. The statue of Guanyin was encircled in the temple, and the golden body was crossed, and the incense was forever received!
Not only Guanyin Bodhisattva, but also other Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are enshrined, and I heard that they are all very effective.
The incense is in full bloom every day. Even pilgrims from other places come here.
Every time it is the day of Avalokiteshvara's birthday. The mountain is even more impassable, and people from all over the country flock to it.
There are those who seek marriage, those who seek wealth, and those who seek children. There are those who want to be in good health, and so on. People are born with seven emotions and six desires. Sink into the red dust. Sometimes, when there is nothing they can do in reality, maybe a bodhisattva can help them.
Cheng Zhaoer didn't believe in these things in his previous life. But since the crossing, she can't help but don't believe it, she is also beating the drum in her own heart, although she comes from a world that advocates technology, but there are not many things in that world that science can't explain, how can I say this.
Therefore, hearing Shen's proposal, she immediately agreed.
Thinking that she is always in the city now, she still has something to do in the past two days, so she will simply set it for three days!
When Shen heard this, he thought about it for a while and agreed.
Cheng Zhao'er kept the two of them to eat, and the Shen family wanted to shirk it, but then thought about it, anyway, they are all their own family members now, why bother seeing each other like this, plus she and Zhu Huihui have nothing to do when they go back, so they should be a little bit together.
I simply didn't shirk it, and nodded in response.
Zhu Huihui also went into the kitchen with Cheng Zhaoer and started to eat.
Cheng Zhaoer is also happy, she herself is very refreshing, and naturally she also likes refreshing people.
Although the Zhu family is an official family, the Shen family still teaches their daughter very well. originally didn't have the intention of marrying into a big family, so whether it was Zhu Huihui or her sister, in addition to teaching them housekeeping, the Shen family also knew a little about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they were not very proficient, and the most proficient thing was the things in the kitchen and the skills of needlework.
Shen said that whether it is a large family or a small family, the clothes and food of their husbands, no matter who makes them, are not as elaborate as those made by their wives.
Cheng Zhaoer doesn't know how Zhu Huihui's eldest sister is doing, but Zhu Huihui's cooking skills are much better than Cheng Zhaoer's.
Cheng Zhaoer is not very good at home-cooked cooking, she is only proficient in dim sum and some strange food. Zhu Huihui not only knows dim sum, but also is very skilled in home-cooked dishes.
However, Cheng Zhao'er was also very touched after listening to Shen's words, she looked at Yuanyuan, who is still Xiaodouding, and felt that in another year or two, she could also teach her some.
Ancient times are not modern, women get married in their teens, and the days in the boudoir are short, and there are a lot of things to learn!
The three of them had lunch together, today it was said that Cheng Zhaoer left the meal, in fact, most of it was made by Zhu Huihui, Cheng Zhaoer was also happy in her heart, if Zhu Huihui was so virtuous after getting married, her eldest brother would be blessed.
The atmosphere is very harmonious, Zhu Huihui is very good with Yuanyuan, the two have a good time, and Cheng Zhaoer and Shen have something to talk about, they come and go, and there is no cold scene.
It wasn't until the next morning that the two left.
On the second day, Cheng Changqing came over once and took Yuanyuan back. They knew earlier when Geng Yiyuan was leaving, and as early as when they sent Yuanyuan to the city, they said goodbye to Geng Yiyuan and asked a few words, and Li helped ask for a talisman for his son-in-law to carry.
Although he was mentally prepared, now, seeing that his daughter's side was empty, Cheng Changqing still felt very uncomfortable, but he didn't say anything, and went back with Yuanyuan.
Not to mention how the Wild Crane Village is, they have everything they say in the Peace Village.
Some say that Cheng Zhao'er is stupid, some say that Cheng Zhao'er was deceived, and some say that Geng Yiyuan made a good calculation and tied up the child's mother, so he will be wholeheartedly for the Geng family's child in the future.
It's just that outsiders chew their tongues, those people in the old mansion don't dare to say anything about Cheng Rongrui now, and now Cheng Zhao'er is very happy about this. She is now between Cheng Rongrui's identity and does not dare to say sour things in front of Li and Cheng Changqing, but she is always not virtuous outside.
It is Cheng Dingwang and Wang, who still come over from time to time to pull Cheng Rongrui to talk about the past. In order to arouse Cheng Rongrui's feelings for them, when Cheng Zhaoer got married a while ago, they always had to bring this granddaughter with them, saying that she had vision and blessings, and she loved Yuanyuan a lot.
As soon as this incident came out, Cheng Dingwang and Wang couldn't remember that Cheng Zhao'er was here at all, even if Cheng Rongrui sometimes mentioned a few words, they also diverted the topic. Ignore Yuanyuan.
The villain knows the sincerity of people best. Who is really good to her, who is acting for others to see, she has always been close to Cheng Dingwang and Wang. The same goes for emboli. It can be seen how sincere Cheng Dingwang and Wang are.
Because of this. Cheng Rongrui confided a few words in front of Cheng Changqing for the first time, claiming that he had lived for more than 20 years, but he didn't even fully see these relatives at home. He was naturally talking about Cheng Changqing and Wang. Now, he had seen their true colors, but no matter how many times he watched them, he still felt extremely cold.
Since then, he has become even more indifferent to the people in the old house.
As for the rumors in the village, these words will not be said in person, but there will always be good deeds that reach the ears of the Cheng family, not only the Li family is angry to death, but Cheng Changqing and Cheng Rongrui are also angry and have trouble eating.
Therefore, Cheng Zhaoer said that he wanted to stay in the city to prepare a shop, Cheng Changqing agreed at the time, and now it is indeed wise to think about it, rather than go back to listen to those unpleasant words, it is better to stay in the city.
Anyway, in a few days, Cheng Rongrui will be ready to come to Changshun City to take up a job, and the brother and sister will also take care of it.
Cheng Zhao'er didn't know about the ups and downs at home, but even if she knew, she would be angry for a while at most, and finally be left behind.
Where there are people, there is strife, and where can she stop it?
After Yuanyuan was picked up by Cheng Changqing, Cheng Zhaoer went to find a tooth woman in Changshun City, known as Huang Ya woman.
Originally, when she was in Shimo Town, she began to look for people by herself, but the people over there looked for some for herself, and Cheng Zhaoer was not very satisfied in the end, so she finally picked and chose a family.
This family's surname is Hong, but they turned out to be good citizens, but they fled for their lives in the disaster year, and the old man of the Hong family lingered on the sickbed, spent all his savings, and even the house was gone, so he had to sell himself.
There are many such people, and now the Great Xia Dynasty is full of disasters, and I don't know what's wrong!
Cheng Zhao'er is compassionate, this family is unwilling to separate, many people dislike the old man of the Hong family, and think that buying such an old man to go back is not a waste?
Even if the old man doesn't use silver, it's a waste of dry rice.
It is precisely because of this that Uncle Hong, the male owner of this family, has repeatedly reduced his own value, hoping that the owner who bought them would be kind and take back the old man, but unfortunately he has never met a suitable one.
Until she met Cheng Zhao'er, Ren Yazi introduced people to her because Aunt Hong could make good soup, so Cheng Zhao'er could meet them.
A family of five, Uncle Hong is a lean man, he looks like the kind that is not easy to fool, but it makes Cheng Zhaoer suddenly think of the housekeepers of those big families, who are very shrewd and capable. Coincidentally, this male owner was originally a craftsman, which is a good thing, Cheng Zhaoer's first thought was that his father wanted one more helper.
Aunt Hong was round, her figure looked two times wider than Uncle Hong, and she smiled with a happy face, life was so difficult, she didn't see any traces on her, but Cheng Zhaoer was happy first. The most important thing is that the family is neat and clean, and Aunt Hong's own fingernails are also neatly trimmed.
Here are two boys, both of whom are young, one is nine years old and the other is eight years old, born with a clever appearance, but they know the height of their eyebrows, standing in front of the master who wants to buy them, neither servile nor cowering, nor cynical and nonsense!
There is also the old man, the old man looks very similar to Uncle Hong, his hair is all white, but he is very spiritual. Uncle Hong's craftsmanship was passed down from him.
Cheng Zhao'er calculated that there were five people, Uncle Hong was worth thirty-five taels, Aunt Hong was twenty-five taels, and the two boys were fifteen taels, and the old man didn't use silver.
Cheng Zhao'er sighed that the ancient human trade was so cheap, and he also felt some pity for them, so he gave a full hundred taels of silver.
The family is very grateful, and in this way, the Hong family is the Cheng family.
These days, Cheng Zhaoer has no time at home, but the Li family has taught Aunt Hong to make those health porridge and other ingredients at home. Uncle Hong didn't follow Cheng Changqing to make too much bamboo furniture, but it was Old Man Hong who was surprised to see that the main family was actually doing this, and followed Cheng Changqing all day long.
He didn't do it for many years, but now that he sees that the Cheng family's utensils are so good, the old man's spirit is mobilized in an instant, and sometimes he can give some opinions and suggestions, which is unexpectedly compatible with Cheng Changqing.
Uncle Hong has been running with Han Yi these days, and he knows how powerful this master is, and he can even feed bees?!
These days, when the flowers bloom, Han Yi took Uncle Hong to collect honey together, and the two of them were quite the best partners.
And the two boys of the Hong family, one is called Hong Bo and the other is called Hong Tao, the two children Li looked clever, so they didn't lack this idea of money at home, but they were sent to study with Cheng Rongfeng and Cheng Rongnian.
In this regard, the Hong family is grateful to Dade, the Li family and Aunt Hong get along well, and she also told Aunt Hong that if Hong Bo and Hong Tao have a future in the future, if they take a talent test or something, it is okay to redeem themselves.
Aunt Hong burst into tears at that time, knelt down and kowtowed to Li's great kindness, it was Old Man Hong and Uncle Hong, who also came to thank the main family once, and then poured out their hearts and lungs.
It's nothing for them to be slaves, but the boys are still young, and which family is willing to be a father and mother who is willing to do it for their children and good people, but to be inferior slaves.
At this time, Cheng Zhao'er found this yellow tooth woman, and Geng Yiyuan had already looked for it before.
said some conditions and requirements, let Huang Yapo find out according to this standard.
These days, Huang Yapo has been waiting for herself, thinking about whether Cheng Zhao'er doesn't want it, but now that Cheng Zhao'er is looking for her again, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly pulled those that she had already found to Cheng Zhao'er.
Cheng Zhaoer is going to pick four men and four women this time. Huang Ya Po is really a famous Ya Po, and everyone who picks them is pleasing to people.
There are two young girls in the woman, both of whom are fourteen or fifteen years old, one is called Chunhua, the other is called Qiushi, and two are older, one is about thirty years old, one is a widow, called Sister-in-law Zhang, and the other has a weak man, and there is a young son in the family, this Cheng Zhaoer calls her Sister-in-law Liu.
The men are all young men, and they are also fifteen or sixteen years old, and they are called the spring equinox, summer solstice, autumn equinox, and winter solstice. Cheng Zhaoer laughed when she heard it, these names are probably produced by the same family. Spring, summer, autumn and winter are all complete. (To be continued.) )
