CHAPTER XXIII

Hearing Mandarin Duck's words, Qing Jin said suspiciously, "Why did Chu Liu come over, did grandmother have something important?" ”

"Sister Chuliu said that the old lady heard that the girl was back, and invited the girl to the old lady's place for lunch!" Mandarin Duck forwarded Chu Liu's words to Qing Jin.

Have lunch? This is obviously a pretext, the old lady should have something to wait to see her, so she asked Chu Liu to pass on such a word, to say that it is still early to have lunch?

Gu Qingjin pondered for a moment, she could probably guess what the old lady was so anxious to see her for, raised her head and said to the mandarin duck: "You go and tell Chu Liu, just say that the girl and I are changing clothes, after changing the clothes, go to the old lady, let Chu Liu go back to grandmother first!" ”

"Yes, girl." Hearing Qing Jin's command, the mandarin duck turned around and went out.

Asaka-in

Walking into grandmother Shen's room and seeing the Shen family in the first place, Gu Qingjin saluted slowly to Shen: "Qing Jin visited her grandmother, Qing Jin originally planned to change her clothes and come to see her grandmother, but she didn't think that her grandmother would call Chu Liu over first, did her grandmother also miss Qing Jin, stayed in the temple for a while, and when she saw her grandmother, she found that Qing Jin missed her grandmother so much." ”

Hearing Gu Qingjin's words and seeing Gu Qingjin's unpretentious expression, Shen's gaze suddenly became gentle, "You girl, now you have a sweet mouth, why didn't you talk so well before?" ”

"Grandmother...... Qing Jin was still young and ignorant before, did grandmother dislike Qing Jin for being ignorant before? Gu Qingjin leaned on Shen's body and rubbed Shen and said.

Seeing Qing Jin's look full of dependence and admiration, the smile on Shen's face became more sincere, "Don't dislike it, how can grandmother dislike grandmother's good granddaughter, it's too late for grandmother to like it!" ”

"By the way, Qing Jin still has a gift to give to her grandmother, this is the Buddhist scriptures that Qing Jin personally copied in the Panruo Temple, after the copying was completed, Qing Jin asked the master of the Panruo Temple to put the scriptures in the main hall of the Panruo Temple for five or six days, and asked Master Shui Jingchen to open the light for this Buddhist scripture, I hope my grandmother can like it, and Qing Jin wishes my grandmother a long and healthy life!"

"Oh, so Jin'er spent the first two days copying Buddhist scriptures?"

"Yes." Gu Qingjin simply replied, anyway, the Shen family should know everything about her in the Panruo Temple, except for the intersection between her and Shui Jingchen.

"Good...... Okay, Jin'er has really grown up, and she knows how to bring gifts to her grandmother, Mama Wang, you take the Buddhist scriptures to the small Buddha hall and worship them. Shen handed the Buddhist scriptures in his hand to Mama Wang, who was close to him.

"Yes, old lady." Mama Wang smiled and took the scroll in Shen's hand and turned to leave.

Shen turned around and spoke to Gu Qingjin again: "Jin'er said that who opened this Buddhist scripture?" ”

"It's the Zen master of the water mirror dust of the Pranya Temple." Qing Jin said with a smile, this should be the purpose of her grandmother calling her over.

"Water mirror dust? Has Jin'er seen Master Kongwu? Shen opened his mouth with excitement in his eyes.

"Back to grandmother, yes, Qing Jin was lucky enough to meet Master Kongwu on the first day she went, and she also drew a lottery from Master Kongwu for our Hou Mansion......" Qing Jin told the Shen family about meeting Master Kongwu that day from beginning to end.

"Oh? What did the Master of Emptiness say? After listening to what Qing Jin said, Shen opened his mouth to ask what he wanted to know the most.

"It was not Master Empty Wu who unsigned for his granddaughter, Master Empty Wu suddenly disappeared after his granddaughter drew that lottery, and then his granddaughter never met Master Empty Wu again, but met Zen Master Shui Jingchen, Zen Master Shui Jingchen said that Master Empty Wu was in retreat, but Master Empty Wu told Master Shui Jingchen to tell his granddaughter, and the granddaughter was drawn to sign it, and our Hou Mansion was very lucky."

"Is that really what Zen Master Shuijingchen said?" Shen was a little excited when he heard Qing Jin's words.

"Yes." Qing Jin nodded heavily in Shen's expectant gaze.

"That's good, Mama Wang, help me go to the ancestral hall to put incense on the ancestors......" After speaking, he went to the ancestral hall with Mama Wang.

Seeing Shen's overjoyed appearance, Qing Jin sat quietly in her position and waited for Shen to come back.

After a while, after Shen returned, after sitting down again, he said to Qing Jin: "Jin'er, this lottery you drew is really accurate, grandmother just received a letter from your third uncle yesterday, and your third uncle will return to Beijing after a while, it's really lucky, it's really lucky!" ”

"Really? The third uncle is coming back, that's great, seeing that my grandmother is so happy, is it that the third uncle won't leave when he comes back this time? Although she already knew the news, Qing Jin still pretended to have just learned and asked Shen.

"I'm really right for you, your third uncle said in the letter that it is very likely that he will not be released after returning to Beijing this time, and he will always be in Beijing in the future, and your fourth sister will come back with him then, and Jin'er will have one more playmate."

"Of course it's good for Qing Jin to have multiple playmates, but isn't the grandmother the happiest that the third uncle can come back?" Qing Jin jokingly spoke to Shen.

"You bastard." Shen heard Qing Jin's quipping words and poked Qing Jin's head with a smile.

In this way, the two ancestors and grandchildren had a happy morning, had lunch at Shen's place, and saw that Shen's was also a little sleepy, so Qing Jin took the initiative to leave.

After coming out of the Shen family, Gu Qingjin took the mandarin duck to the Jun family's courtyard, because the third uncle was coming back, and the Jun family was busy arranging some things to deal with some housekeeping in the house, when Qing Jin went, the Jun family was busy, Qing Jin didn't say a few words to the Jun family, and took the initiative to leave after seeing the Jun family's busy appearance.

After returning from the Panruo Temple, Gu Qingjin lived a standard life of ladies, before because of illness, and then went to the Buddha of the Panruo Temple, and when Qingjin was free, those who used to have poetry sent a post to Qingjin.

Qing Jin looked at the posts of various poetry clubs in her hand, and said to the mandarin duck next to her: "In the future, all such posts will be rejected!" ”

"All refused?" Mandarin duck doesn't understand a little, didn't the girl like to participate in this kind of banquet before?

Qing Jin said without the slightest hesitation to the mandarin duck: "Yes, I refused, I used to be a girl and I was bored and played, but now the girl has grown up, what's the use of participating in these poems, girl, I will marry someone to be the housewife in the future, and I will only be able to calm the people in the house with some poems and paintings?" Besides, girl, I am the daughter of the Hou Mansion, why do you want such a big name? ”

When the mandarin duck heard Qing Jin's words, she nodded in agreement, "The girl is right, that's good, the mandarin duck won't let the concierge accept these posts in the future, so what will we do in the future, girl?" ”

"What? Girl, I plan to follow my mother another day to learn something about managing things in the house, and learn something that everyone should learn from the housewife. ”
