"Madam, Second Mrs. Xu sent a post, please participate in the Cheng'en Temple Blessing Party tomorrow." At this time, the steward took a post and handed it to Han Li.

"No, no." Han Li took the post and threw it aside, she called this second lady Xu to death this time, and she didn't want to pay attention to the Xu family anymore.

Zhenniang waved her hand to let the steward go down, and then took the post and looked at it: "Auntie, I still have to participate in this funeral meeting." ”

Zhenniang persuaded that now that the eldest uncle has collected so much land, and he is a merchant family, he will definitely be targeted, and where can he resist it then. Therefore, these fields have to be absorbed by the Xu family in the end, otherwise, the Han family holds so much land, and when the time comes, it will not be eaten alive. At the beginning, when she and her eldest uncle decided on this jihua, the Xu family was also an important part.

After all, this land resumption is just self-preservation.

Besides, if there were no such lands, how would Hai Rui investigate the affairs of the Xu family in a few years, Zhenniang had no desire to change history at all.

"Alas......" Han Li sighed, took the post, and said that if he didn't go, it was just angry talk, how could he really not go? If she offends this Mrs. Xu, maybe she will affect her husband, and she also knows the severity of this.

"Auntie, don't be discouraged, this debt will always be repaid." Zhenniang said indifferently. The ending of the three brothers of the Xu family is a match.

"Zhenniang accompany me on a trip, although none of those ladies are fuel-efficient lamps, but when you do business in Nanjing in the future, sometimes you will inevitably have to deal with something, and it doesn't hurt to get to know each other." Han Li said.

"Hmm." Zhenniang nodded, she understood.

"Hmm. Zhenniang has been coming to Nanjing for a few days, and it is time to go out for a walk. Huang also nodded. Her mind is different from Han Li's, and most of the Huang family wants Zhenniang to go out for a walk. So that some women can know the goodness of the virgin mother, so that the relatives of the virgin mother, some women ask to come to the door.

In this way, it is decided.

Cheng'en Temple, during the Jingtai period, the great eunuch Wang Jin asked to build near Sanshan Street, not far from the Li family and the Han family. It's a pity, historically. In 1900, the temple was destroyed by a fire, leaving only some of the remains underground.

The next day, it was the spring equinox, and it was drizzling.

Green hats, green clothes, slanting wind and drizzle do not need to return.

Zhen Niang followed Han Li into Cheng'en Temple, and Mrs. Xu had already taken over the peach orchard behind the temple, and when Han Li led Zhen Niang to arrive, Mrs. Xu had not yet arrived. However, some women arrived first, enjoying the scenery and drinking tea in the pavilion in the garden, and the most important thing was to chat.

Han Li led Zhen Niang over. It aroused the curiosity of some women.

When I knew that Zhenniang was now Li Mo's big shopkeeper, I was even more surprised. Of course, there are also merchants who have a relationship with the Tian family who have heard about the dismissal of Zhenniang Kenu. I can't help but whisper.

And since Zhenniang was dismissed, I don't know how many such whispers have been heard. I've already calmed down, and I can't care about it. It's just that the rules and regulations are turned over, and the etiquette is not lost.

This situation, in the eyes of those women, can't help but be a little pampered and reluctant, plus a girl is not interested in business, but it also attracts the favor of several merchant women, especially a tung oil merchant Qin Niangzi, Zhen Niang also got her meeting gift, and was also invited by several families to walk around in private.

This is similar to some business gatherings in later generations, at the party, it is basically to get acquainted, exchange a business card, and if there is a chance in the future, continue to communicate, and that's it.

At this moment, Second Mrs. Xu and several official ladies arrived. Several official ladies, one is the lady of the tax ambassador He Niangzi, the other is the Wang Niangzi of the Yingtianfu warden, and the other is the Zhao Niangzi of the county school teaching.

On such an occasion, the wives of high-ranking officials will not come to participate, and these few people have something to do with it.

Immediately, the women who arrived first all stepped forward to talk to a few ladies, and Han Li took Zhen Niang to meet Mrs. Xu.

Second Mrs. Xu doesn't care too much about Zhen Niang, there are many merchant women or merchant girls who want to get to know her every day, she doesn't need to care. just invited Han Li to sit down: "A few days ago, my family was busy, and I didn't bother to ask you about this land, I know that the price of land has dropped sharply recently, don't worry, we won't pay less to you, but I heard that you have been recovering a lot of land recently, what's going on?" That's a bit of a trick, right? ”

As Mrs. Xu spoke, her face was a little heavy, and what was outside of her words was a bit of a hint of asking the teacher

When he came, Han Li had already discussed with Zhen Niang and answered, and at this time he naturally said with a look of annoyance: "Oh, this matter, blame me for not having an accurate vision, I have received a lot of land at a high price before, I think I can't let a few ladies follow me at a loss." So, these days, I was ruthless, and I gave the Li family's shops in Nanjing to Yihousheng Money Village, borrowed money, and took advantage of the opportunity of the current land price to drop and then reclaim the land, so that the original high land price could be averaged down, and a few ladies could follow me to lose less. ”

"You're kind, but have you ever thought that Lord Hai is coming, and it's the problem of the land to be investigated. Second Mrs. Xu complained.

"No, the land is in my hands, and if something happens, I'll bear it. Besides, Lord Hai hasn't come yet, our merchant women don't have much foresight, and we don't know much about the affairs of the imperial court, so I know that if Lord Hai doesn't come to Nanjing for a day, then I can't do anything. If it really comes, I bought all this land with real money, and I didn't do anything bad. If you don't do bad things, you are not afraid of half-ghosts knocking on the door, and then Lord Hai is the king of Hades, so you have to be reasonable. Han Li said.

"Oh, that's what you thought, then I blamed you wrong." Second Mrs. Xu said with a comforting face.

"It's nothing, now those who know our old Han are saying that he is crazy. It's just that we understand for ourselves that no matter how much we lose, we can't lose the money that the ladies gave me, that is the trust of the ladies in our Han family. Han Li's words were extremely sincere.

Zhen Niang is also breathtaking on the side, this ginger is still old and spicy, the eldest aunt responded to this turn, not only showing her loyalty, but also explaining the situation, although the general idea is to discuss haode before, but the eldest aunt's on-the-spot play is also quite good.

"Well, I understand Han Niangzi's intentions." Second Mrs. Xu no longer had any doubts at this time, but felt a little guilty about her previous behavior of not admitting the account, but thinking about it, these businessmen didn't have to rely on her way to move around on weekdays. In this way, you will have peace of mind.

At this time, several women came over, the drizzle outside had stopped, and the whole peach orchard seemed foggy, and the scenery was quite good, so they invited each other to walk around.

"By the way, let's go to Tallinn in the backyard to have a look, I heard that there is a new monk in Cheng'en Temple, with a single pair of hands, to build a Buddha bone mound, we just went there to worship the blessing." At this time, Zhao Niangzi, who taught the family, said.

"Buddha bone mound? What is that? The lady of the tax department on the side, Mrs. He, asked.

"I heard that in the fifteenth year of Jiajing, the emperor demolished the Buddha hall built in the Yuan Dynasty in the palace in order to build the queen mother's palace, and obtained many Buddha bone relics. The emperor believed in the Tao and did not believe in Buddhism, thinking that it was a fool's errand, so he ordered it to be burned, and only a jar of Buddha ashes was left in the palace. I heard that the Buddha Hui master bowed to the nine doors, seeking this altar of Buddha bones, and now it is sent in the Cheng'en Temple, building the Buddha bone mound, and the Buddha Hui master in order to show sincerity, the whole Buddha bone mound is all piled up by his hands, the bluestone base, is stained with bloodstains, and magically, these blood stains are like pieces of peach petals. "The teaching lady said, these are what I listen to my own teaching husband on weekdays.

Such a translation aroused everyone's interest.

So, the general lady went to Tallinn in the back garden with him.

When I arrived in the backyard, sure enough, in a light fog, a monk dressed in gray and green monk robes was struggling to carry pieces of bricks and stones, and along the newly built masonry wall, sure enough, the blood stains were like peach petals of different shades.

Such a situation caused everyone to be solemn. And those who believed in the Buddha had already put their hands together and began to recite the scriptures.

Seeing this situation, she remembered the collection of ink, and the Buddha Hui master moved bricks to build additional walls, which can just form a picture of a sub-collection of ink.

Thinking about it, Zhen Niang beckoned a little novice and asked him to find a few pieces of paper, and then Zhen Niang took out a piece of ink from her arms, which was specially made by herself, and it was said that it was an ancient eyebrow pencil used to draw eyebrows.

At this time, Zhen Niang took this ink block and drew the ink line drawing directly on the paper, and when it comes to the ink line drawing, it is somewhat similar to the sketch drawings of later generations, in short, there are some different classics.

Zhen Niang in order to draw a good ink line drawing, the sketch has worked hard, so, in less than a quarter of an hour, a few ink line drawings have been drawn, simple, but also expressive.

The first painting is the ink line of the cow and horse, and then the next is the back of the Buddha Hui master moving the bricks, and then the silhouette of the weight forward, and then the Buddha bone mound with peach blossom petals, in front of the Buddha bone mound, the Buddha Hui master in his thirties added a breath of dust.

Zuihou is some dragon elephant ink line drawing.

And Zhen Niang knew that this Buddha Hui Master was the later Master of Lotus Pond, and because he lived in Hangzhou Yunqi Temple after that, he was also known as Yunqi Monk and was one of the four great monks of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhen Niang believes that when she makes these ink line drawings into a collection of ink, in a few years, this collection of ink will shine. It is not necessary to say that discord will become the treasure of Li's Mozhuang.

Thinking of this, Zhen Niang thought of another kind of ink, Buddha ink.

Buddha ink is one of the ink method, developed by Sichuan monks, according to rumors Su Dongpo had learned the Buddha ink method, when he was demoted to the south, he had taken the South China Sea pine smoke, combined with the Buddha ink method, made the South China Sea law ink. It's a pity that when he came back, the boat had an accident, and all the ink made fell into the sea, so Su Dongpo's South China Sea ink became a perfect sound.

And Fomo was very prosperous in the Song Dynasty, but after the depression of the Yuan Dynasty, when it came to the Ming Dynasty, Fomo disappeared without a trace. Even if there are occasional ones, they only get the shape of Buddha ink, and they don't get the god of Buddha ink, so they can't be regarded as real Buddha ink.

It's a deep pity.
