"Miss Shu, why are you here?" Yang Jianbai was leaning on the bedside reading a book, and was a little surprised when he saw Shu Manyao coming in, Shu Manyao smiled and saluted, and took two steps forward slightly: "Just now the concierge sent a letter in, saying that a Mrs. Yang came to visit, so ......"

Yang Jianbai's face sank, to be honest, he didn't care about the entire Yang family. This Mrs. Yang, but also his grandmother and second uncle behind his back, he didn't have a good impression at all, when the emperor's decree arrived, he also left a message, let people send the horse girl back to her parents' house, this time back to Beijing He didn't even inquire about the Yang family, but now, he even sent him a Mrs. Yang!

Is that horse girl a fool? If she really wants to go back to her parents' house, the old lady is her own aunt and grandmother, and she will be forced to stay, and then she may become a widow in the future?

Secretly hated for a while, Yang Jianbai's thoughts immediately turned to the court, the Yang family is the Shu family from Weishenme? What Miss Shu meant just now, the Yang family and the Shu family didn't have any friendship at all, and there was only one reason for this sudden door-to find out if she was in the Shu family.

Is this what the Yang family meant, or whose order did the Yang family take?

Yang Jianbai knew very well that with the scene the day before yesterday, his news in the Shu family could not be concealed at all, but since the emperor ordered him to conceal his whereabouts, even if everyone knew about it, he had to pretend not to know. Therefore, the real loyalty will never go against the emperor's will to inquire about the news.

So, is the Yang family involved in it this time? Yang Jianbai's face turned pale, and he turned his head to look at Shu Manyao, he wanted to find out the news of the Yang family, but at this time, he couldn't see the horse girl, this matter was really a little difficult to do.

"Miss Shu, there is something to ask for below." After hesitating for a long time, Yang Jianbai still spoke, this Shu girl looks young, but she is very smart, if she can help, things will be simple, right?

"Young Master Yang, please speak." Shu Manyao smiled and nodded, Yang Jianbai was a little embarrassed: "The one who came here may be Miss Ma, I can't see this Miss Ma at this time, but the matter of the Yang family is ......"

"I understand, don't worry, Young Master Yang." Shu Manyao nodded with a smile: "Yang Gongzi, wait, I sent Miss Ma away, and then I came to talk to Yang Gongzi." ”

Yang Jianbai called Mrs. Yang a horse girl, which shows that this "Mrs. Yang" has not officially become Mrs. Yang. It's just, in the last life, what happened to this horse girl Zuihou? This question is really scratching my heart, why didn't I pay much attention to the outside world in my previous life?

Also, I remember that Man Jin said that she was a stepmother in the past, this Ma girl, Zuihou and Yang Jianbai still became?

While thinking, Shu Manyao went back to Changchun Hall, and then asked someone to invite Mrs. Yang in.

Miss Ma is still the same as before, bright and beautiful, with a proud demeanor, looking at people with her chin and the tail of her eyes, that look, as if saying a word to you is a great gift: "Miss Shu, right?" Why didn't you see your old lady? ”

The implication is that the Shu family was rude and let a little girl come forward to entertain guests. Shu Manyao smiled and let people serve tea: "Unfortunately, my grandmother is a little uncomfortable during this time, the doctor said that I need to recuperate, I can't work hard, I am drinking medicine and falling asleep at this time, I really can't stand Mrs. Yang, I don't know you want to come, so I didn't come out to entertain." ”

There is a reason why the old lady of the Shu family does not come forward, and it is not rude to have the host to entertain her. And the Yang family's behavior of coming directly to the door without posting is the real faux pas.

Miss Ma glared at Shu Manyao, and said: "I haven't heard that the old lady is sick, I knew this, I brought some medicinal materials from the house to the old lady to use, I think it is also, the old lady is old, maybe there is a three long and two short, it is indeed necessary to take care of it." ”

This is a curse, whether the old lady is sick or not, Miss Ma is very rude when she says this, Shu Manyao is secretly annoyed, and answers with a smile: "Yes, grandmother is indeed not young." Speaking of which, the old lady of the Yang family is more than 20 years older than my grandmother, some time ago, I also heard that the old lady of the Yang family has a cold, and her body is not happy, and I don't know if she is better at this time. I also know that Mrs. Yang was kind just now, and the Yang family's medicinal materials are better than those of the Shu family, but we don't dare to win people's love, so let's keep these for the old lady of the Yang family. ”

Shu Manyao is reluctant to talk to people on weekdays, and she always reminds her of the shrews she saw on the street in her last life, but she is not far behind compared to her tongue.

Mrs. Yang's face changed color in a few words, and Shu Manyao finally inserted the topic: "I don't know if Mrs. Yang is coming to visit today, if it is a trivial matter, I can call the shots." If it is a big event, I am afraid that I will have to make Mrs. Yang wait for a few days, and my grandmother is not feeling well, so I am afraid that I will not be able to entertain Mrs. Yang for these two days. ”

"It's not a big deal, but I heard that you went to Fuyuan Temple two days ago?" Mrs. Yang coughed lightly, changed the topic back, and then showed a gossipy look: "I heard that Fuyuan Temple had an accident yesterday, and it just so happened that we are also going to Fuyuan Temple in the past two days, so I wanted to come over and ask to see if you know what happened to Fuyuan Temple." ”

Shu Manyao looked surprised: "Ah, something happened to Fuyuan Temple?" What happened? Said, frowning slightly: "When we went the day before yesterday, it was still very calm, the vegetarian food of Fuyuan Temple was still very delicious, that day we used three fresh, eight treasures fried sugar vegetables, vegetarian roasted mutton, pine nut tripe......"

Shu Manyao folded his hands and counted seven or eight dishes: "It's as delicious as before, and I used half a bowl of rice that day." By the way, Mrs. Yang, you said that something happened to Fuyuan Temple, what happened? In the future, this vegetarian food of Fuyuan Temple can still be used, right? ”

Miss Ma's face flashed with disdain, and she originally wanted to laugh at Shu Manyao, but when she thought of the previous conversation, she didn't want to turn the topic crookedly, so she reluctantly nodded and said: "Naturally, I can, but I can't do it during this time, Fuyuan Temple," Miss Ma lowered her voice, and mysteriously approached Shu Manyao's side and said: "Out of the Khitan spies, the emperor asked people to surround Fuyuan Temple yesterday, and let people search inside, and those spies must be found." ”

"Khitan spies?" Shu Manyao was taken aback, and there was some panic on his face: "Really?" When will it appear? Oh my God, it's terrible, it didn't appear the day before yesterday, right? ”

"I can't say for sure, maybe, the emperor will think that you have contact with Khitan spies, you only came back from Fuyuan Temple the day before yesterday, and Fuyuan Temple was surrounded yesterday, and the time is too coincidental, if someone looks at your Shu family unpleasantly, xiangshang ginseng, saying that your Shu family has hidden people, and when the time comes, it will be a big crime of raiding the family and exterminating the family!" Miss Ma said very solemnly: "Think about it, did you encounter anything strange in Fuyuan Temple that day." ”

"Strange things?" Shu Manyao frowned and pondered, and then her eyes lit up: "I remembered, there is really a strange thing, when my grandmother was talking to Mrs. Chen in the main hall, I took the maids to the release pond to see, and I saw a girl, she put the turtle in the pool, but the turtle crawled out of the pool several times, and then she put it back, tossing for a long time, why didn't the turtle want to stay in the water?" Isn't it in the water that a turtle can live? ”

Miss Ma's face was gloomy, and Shu Manyao was very puzzled: "This thing is too strange, isn't it?" I still can't figure out if it's weishenme, could it be that the pool water is poisonous? But the fish inside, and the other turtles, are all right. ”

"I don't know if this is weishenme, besides this, have you encountered anything other strange things?" Miss Ma continued to ask, Shu Manyao frowned and pondered: "That's not true, Mrs. Yang, you said that you are going to Fuyuan Temple, do you want to make incense?" ”

Miss Ma nodded: "Well, I have been on the expedition for more than a year, and I am very worried, so I often go to Fuyuan Temple to offer incense, and also pray for him, wishing him a safe return as soon as possible." ”

Shu Manyao nodded knowingly: "That's it, then Mrs. Yang is sincere, and the Buddha will definitely bless that Yang Gongzi." When Mrs. Yang put on incense, did she make needlework or copy Buddhist scriptures? ”

Praying for blessings is either to make clothes, shoes and socks to worship in front of the Buddha for 7749 days, or to buy jade and the like for the master to consecrate, or to copy the Buddhist scriptures and let the monks burn them after reciting them. Miss Ma's hands are white and pure, but she doesn't look like she is used to needlework. And Miss Ma's temperament doesn't seem to be able to copy Buddhist scriptures for a few days.

As for offering jade or something, you don't have to go every month at all, you have to build a Buddhist hall at home, and then go to chant sutras every day.

"What are you asking for?" Miss Ma frowned, and asked unhappily, Shu Manyao hurriedly smiled: "Please forgive Miss Ma, it's just that there is more than a month, it is my grandmother's birthday, I am thinking about praying for my grandmother, and I don't go to Fuyuan Temple very often, I don't know which one is better to pray for blessings in Fuyuan Temple, so I asked Mrs. Yang." Mrs. Yang grew up in the capital, and the things in the capital must be clearer than I know. ”

Miss Ma was a little proud: "That's natural, you are right to ask me about this matter, I have been to all the temples in the capital." Fuyuan Temple is the largest temple in the capital, it is famous for praying for blessings, in their temple, the Buddhist scriptures are the best, if you have sincerity, copy a few more. ”

"Thank you, Mrs. Yang, for telling me." Shu Manyao hurriedly thanked him, and inquired about the Yang family without a trace: "Mrs. Yang, I heard that the old lady of your family is very familiar with the old lady of Liguo?" ”

Miss Ma nodded: "That's natural, the old lady of Liguo and the old lady of our family are handkerchiefs, and the relationship is good." ”

"Really? I also heard last time that the third son of the Yang family is engaged, and it is not too much for a family like you to marry a princess, and I don't know whose girl is so lucky to marry the third son of the Yang family. ”

Miss Ma was even more proud, and followed Shu Manyao's words. Speaking of zuihou, it doesn't look like Miss Ma came to set Shu Manyao's words, it was simply Shu Manyao who was using Miss Ma's words: "Some time ago, I heard that your old lady also went to visit the Shilang Mansion, and the Shilang Mansion is really a big face, and even worked Lao Taijun to come to the door in person, and asked me to say that the old lady should not give their family this face." ”

Miss Ma looked indignant: "That's right, I said the same thing, but the old lady still has to go, and said that I am uncertain and unwilling to take me there, she is willing to take me there, and I am not happy, what is the Shilang Mansion?" I can't even compare to half a finger of the General's Mansion, and the General's Mansion still comes to visit in person, you don't know, the General's wife went to our house yesterday and brought gifts to everyone, giving me such a big box of jewelry, which is very beautiful, you see, this hairpin on my head is one of them, how about it? ”

Shu Manyao exclaimed: "Such a big gem!" I've never seen such a big one before, and it's in good condition, which general's mansion sent it? I wanted to inquire, but they didn't know if they could open a shop. ”

Miss Ma stroked her sleeves, raised her chin and snorted: "Don't think about it, General Li's Mansion is not short of money, so it is possible to open a shop?" ”
