Chapter 16: Criticism
The old lady put down the Buddha beads, tried them under An Rong's signal, and said with bright eyes, "This thing is good, it is convenient and warm, and there are orchids embroidered on it, with fine stitches, and you embroidered it?" ”
An Rong nodded, and the old lady was even more pleased, Shen Anyu went up and squeezed the old lady's hand, and said enviously, "This is really good, fourth sister, you will prepare it for grandmother?" ”
An Rong hummed lightly, "I made two pairs of gloves at night, and I followed my grandmother first, I left Qiu Ju and Dong Mei to make gloves, and I went back to send one set to each of the sisters in the house." ”
is both filial and generous, such a granddaughter can make people hurt to the bone, the old lady is satisfied, Shen Anyu is also satisfied, only the eldest lady raised her eyebrows lightly, her status in the heart of the four girls is below the old lady?
Out of the main house, An Rong wanted to put on gloves, but he was robbed of the jade by Shen Anyu all of a sudden, raised it in his hand, and pursed his red lips dissatisfiedly, "Fourth sister, you hide it so tightly, such a good thing, you didn't take it out until today." ”
An Rong raised her hand to snatch the gloves back, but Shen Anxi took a step ahead of her and grabbed it in her hand, "I'll try it on." ”
An Rong didn't grab it anymore, seeing that she put the green white jade gloves in, moved her five fingers, and immediately gave birth to the heart of not returning it to her, but Shen Anyu took another one, and was also reluctant, "Fourth sister, you are tired of playing for a while, borrow me to wear it for a while." ”
An Rong glanced at the two of them, "This thing is not exquisite, you can do it with a needle and thread, is it worth fighting for?" Why don't I dismantle it and divide it with two fingers? ”
Several people's faces suddenly became a little hot, and they took off their gloves and stuffed Anrong's hands, "How can I really rob you of this pair, you teach me how to do it when you go back, I will make a beautiful pair, you are a little too big." ”
"Let's go, let's go to the Jokhang Temple quickly," Shen Anfu pushed them, she was also envious in her heart, but she was separated from An Rong by a room, and she was not close to them, so she had to walk around with her in the future.
Out of the Hou Mansion, there were carriages waiting there in front of the door, and there were four of them.
Headed by a carriage, the vermilion wheel canopy, the wall of the car is a fine work of exquisite patterns, the roof droops with various colored tassels, the four corners are decorated with silver bells, with the wind and snow, swaying songs.
The latter one is a little more low-key, but there is not much difference, and the next two are for the accompanying maids, which are very different.
An Rong and Shen Anyu are daughters-in-law, so they naturally take the first car, and Shen Anyun and the three of them squeeze the second car.
When everyone had gotten into the carriage, the carriage rolled and drove forward.
It wasn't until she got into the carriage that Peony dared to believe that the four girls really only took her to the Jokhang Temple to enjoy the incense and snow, thinking of the envious eyes of Qiu Ju and Dongmei before going out, Peony also felt that her body was a little trembling, she must have offended them!
Usually the four girls go out to meet guests, either with Qiu Ju, or with Dong Mei, sometimes they can't bear their entanglement, and will bring them all, but this morning, the four girls directly ordered her to accompany her, like a big pie smashed over, and her head was dizzy at that time.
Peony glanced at Taoxiang and Chunlan, who were sitting in the same carriage, and the two talked very happily, without even glancing at her, and couldn't help but feel a little lost, and took the rope out of the purse to tie the string.
The technique is skillful, even if the carriage is bumpy, it is not messy, and it quickly attracted Momoxiang and Chunlan, and the two of them couldn't help but exclaim, "What a beautiful technique!" ”
Diamond-shaped wind, inside is a plum blossom, and the plum blossom is decorated with silver bells, gently shaking and crisp.
"I heard Sister Qiu Ju say that it will take an hour from the Hou Mansion to the Jokhang Temple, and I am afraid that I will be bored on the road, so I brought a lot of ropes and threads out to pass the time, do you want to play?" Peony thinks that she is very far-sighted, otherwise she will be isolated, and what a shame for the girl!
Momoka and Chunlan nodded, "You taught us to play like this." ”
The peony needle and thread are slightly worse, but no one can compare with the strings, and soon, the three of them played together.
On the contrary, the first two carriages looked much duller, and in the spacious carriage, Shen Anyu was talking about clothes and headdresses, An Rong was a little interested, and in the next seven years, what kind of clothes and headwear would be popular in Kyoto, she knew better than anyone else.
Because she wore it.
An Rong was thinking of a special chessboard that would come out two years later, even in a bumpy carriage, he could play against people, without worrying about the chess game falling apart as soon as the carriage was bumpy.
In order not to be boring with Su Junze, within half a year, her chess skills have improved by leaps and bounds, from having no chance of winning to meeting opponents.
I'm used to the carriage game, but now I'm a little uncomfortable.
Seeing An Rong walking up again, Shen Anyu was a little crazy, "Fourth sister, I'll talk to you again!" ”
An Rong came back to her senses, and Shen Anyu looked at her sadly, "What do you think?" ”
An Rong sighed, "What else can I think, I'm worried about money." ”
Shen Anyu thought that he had heard a big joke, "Worried about money? ”
An Rong sipped the tea melancholy, "In the past, the shop was at my grandmother's, and it was profitable every year, which was enough for me to spend, and in the past two years, I handed it over to Ruan's mother to take care of it, and I wanted two thousand taels, and she looked at me in embarrassment." ”
Shen Anyu said unhappily, "It's your money, you want to use it, what kind of difficulty is she for?" ”
"I can't say that, she is my personal mother in the end, I still have to listen to a few words of her, my father said that she is competent," An Rong smiled generously, "I am not in a hurry, I will ask for it in a few days." ”
Shen Anyu was unhappy for An Rong, but An Rong closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
In this life, I was vigilant in my heart, and I saw more with my eyes, my uncle's birthday was imminent, she asked Ruan's mother to buy a birthday gift with two thousand taels, she said too much for a while, and said that she was short of money for a while.
If she said that she would give it to the eldest lady, even if she didn't, Ruan's mother would make it up.
"The idea of casting the golden longevity word is probably not working, I still have to find the third sister to find a way again, she has a lot of ideas," An Rong looked sad.
Shen Anyu's face was silent, but she was angry in her heart, the fourth sister has always been a matter that can be solved by money, she is unwilling to use her brain, can she be so worried, how tight is Ruan's mother to write money?
Compared with the hustle and bustle of the city outside the car, the inside of the carriage is more and more lonely.
After a while, An Rong opened his eyes, and a sneer flashed at the bottom of his eyes.
Jokhang Temple is located in Jiupan Mountain, the mountain peaks are beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, the peaks covered in ice are crystal clear, and the beauty is breathtaking.
The beauty of the scenery of Jokhang Temple, there are Jiuqu River, Baizhang Cliff, Riguan Peak, Wangren Pine, Yunqiao Waterfall nearby, attracting countless literati and ink writers in addition to pilgrims.
Even if the heavy snow blocks the road, on the fifteenth day, there are still many people who come to the Jokhang Temple to incense like cattle and horses, and you can think of the peak of the incense in the Jokhang Temple.
A hundred meters away from the main hall of the Jokhang Temple, the carriage stopped, got off the carriage, and walked towards the ninety-nine steps.
Below the stairs is a lively bazaar, and above the stairs, there is a solemn ancient temple.
In front of the ancient temple, there is an open flat land, there is a red gold copper furnace, and there are three pillars of thick incense inserted in it, and the fragrance is pleasant.
The incense of the Jokhang Temple has the effect of concentrating and calming the spirit, the old lady is chanting in the house, and the incense that is burned is bought back from the Jokhang Temple.
The incense curls, stops at the noise, and returns to tranquility.
Wu'an Hou Mansion has the habit of fifteen incense, and Anrong also came with the old lady, so the monks who welcomed the guests all recognized it and led them into the hall to enter the incense.
In the hall, good men and women kneel in the wisps of fragrance and sincerely ask for the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas......
The Bodhisattva lowered his eyebrows and welcomed people with kindness.
After entering the incense, it is to donate sesame oil money, and the Wu'an Hou Mansion donates it every month, twenty taels each time.
The marriage sign of the Jokhang Temple is very popular, and the unmarried girl comes to the Jokhang Temple, and one of the places she must go to is the Marriage Hall, asking for marriage.
Outside the marriage hall, there is a marriage tree, which is hung with red silk, and there are jade pendants sold nearby, mostly in pairs, mandarin ducks, and Tilian......
Stepping up the steps, Shen Anxi pointed to a stall on the other side, and said mysteriously, "I heard that blind eyes are very effective, no matter the birthday, no words, one eye breaks people's hearts." ”
Shen Anfu said disdainfully, "There are very few people who go there, and it must not work." ”
An Rong paused, remembering the blind hexagram in his previous life: a pillar of grandeur, once urged. The water and moon are mirrored, and they come unintentionally.
In the last life, her father and brother died, and her so-called happy marriage was not the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror?
I don't know what her criticism is in this life?
