Lin Yunxia let out a long sigh: "Why are you so stupid?" Rika is still young and ignorant, Mrs. Ben has never bothered with her, how can you do such a thing? ”

The maid begged for mercy: "The slave and maid are also angry for a while, the ghost is confused, beg the lady to be gracious!" ”

Aunt Lin pursed her mouth, knowing that this time she couldn't help Lin Yunxia.

She said to the maid, "It is not the lady who suffers, what are you begging for mercy from the lady?" The request is also for Miss Four. ”

"Fourth Miss, did you say?"

Zhao Lihua nodded in agreement: "Aunt Lin is reasonable. ”

Lin Yunxia pulled her lips and smiled: "Don't apologize to Miss Fourth and beg for mercy!" ”

The maid crawled in front of Zhao Lihua and kowtowed to admit her mistake: "Fourth Miss, it's not right to be a slave, please be merciful." ”

Zhao Lihua didn't plan to let go of this girl.

"If I am really succeeded by these three people today, my reputation will be ruined, and if you say that you don't do it right, I will let you go, you think too beautifully."

Zhao Lihua looked at Lin Yunxia: "Madam, can I dispose of this maid at will?" ”

Lin Yunxia nodded: "Yes." ”

is just a maid, Lin Yunxia didn't care about the maid's life at all.

If you want to blame Zhao Lihua, blame Zhao Lihua for being ruthless, and her own life is not good.

The maid knew that she would not be good if she fell into the hands of Zhao Lihua, so she shouted to Lin Yunxia and Mama Qian: "Madam, please save the slave, Mama Qian." Speak to the slave and maid. ”

Lin Yunxia and Mama Qian ignored her with cold faces.

Zhao Lihua smiled: "What are you so afraid of?" I won't eat you again, I think, you are also an old girl, why don't you marry him! ”

Zhao Lihua raised her finger and pointed at the acne man.

The acne man was a little flattered, but he didn't expect to be able to pick up a woman on this trip!

When the maid heard this, she immediately refused: "No, no, Fourth Miss, please be merciful, don't marry him." ”

Zhao Lihua looked at Lin Yunxia: "Madam, do you think it's okay?" ”

Lin Yunxia agreed without saying a word: "Yes." ”

The maid fell to the ground in despair, motionless, like a dead corpse.

Zhao Lihua glared at the acne man: "Don't take your woman with you yet." ”

The acne man was glared at by her and reacted from the shock: "Oh, get out, the little one will get out immediately." ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward and picked up the maid and ran, and the two men who came with him also hurried after him.

Zhao Lihua looked at the back of them leaving and smiled.

The reason why she didn't execute this maid, but asked her to marry this acne man, was because this maid was pushed out as a scapegoat just now.

She saw this maid glance at a guard, and she saw the reluctance in the maid's eyes and the worry in the guard's eyes.

She guessed that the two of them had a personal affair in the house, so she made this decision.

Maids and guards have personal affairs, which is a common thing in the mansions of large families.

If the maid didn't splash dirty water on her, she might be able to let her go for the sake of this maid who was also a poor person who was caught and punished.

But this maid has been taken by Lin Yunxia, and as soon as she comes out, she starts to button her hat, so she can't be blamed.

To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to herself, and she is not a virgin.

At this moment, the onlookers saw that there was no drama to watch, so they slowly dispersed, and they now looked at Zhao Lihua's expressions full of sympathy.

They're not stupid, and they know what's going on.

It must be that Miss Yan, who just entered the house, was not treated well and was harmed by her mother.

But it's none of their business, it's someone else's business, just look at the excitement.

Everyone dispersed, Lin Yunxia took the female dependents of the Prime Minister's Mansion into the Lingyin Temple, and the novice who came to receive them took them to the arranged courtyard.

Everyone was quiet along the way, and they didn't say anything about what had just happened at the gate of the temple.

Everyone knows it, and at the same time, they also know that Zhao Lihua is not easy to deal with.

Aunt Lin was the most angry, because she almost fell for Lin Yunxia, offended Zhao Lihua, and let Lin Yunxia take advantage of the wall.

She hates being taken advantage of by others the most, especially by Lin Yunxia.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the courtyard where they lived, Jing'an Courtyard.

Because they are from the Prime Minister's Mansion, not the homes of ordinary people.

And Lin Yunxia donated enough money for incense, so she arranged Jing'an Courtyard for them.

Jing'an Courtyard is very large, with sixteen side rooms, which is enough for the women of the Prime Minister's Mansion to live.

The Jing'an Courtyard is full of golden bamboo, also known as green silk bamboo, which has a golden yellow background and green stripes of varying thicknesses.

As soon as I walked into the yard, the breeze blew, and everyone smelled the fragrance of bamboo.

The breeze of the bamboo forest is refreshing.

After taking them to the courtyard, the novice departed.

Lin Yunxia arranged the wing room where everyone would live, and before everyone entered the wing room, Lin Yunxia said: "It's getting late today, everyone rest first, and go with me to meet the old lady tomorrow." ”

Aunt Lin secretly glanced at Lin Yunxia unhappily.

It's getting late, and it's not her doing! Obviously, when they went up the mountain, it was still Shen Shi, and the sky was bright.

She tossed this time, and it was going to be dark.

After slandering Lin Yunxia, Aunt Lin twisted her ass and went into the house, and slammed the door shut after entering the house.

In Zhao Lihua's wing.

As soon as he entered the house, Ji Xiang Ruyi hurriedly asked: "Miss, you are so powerful, how do you know that Madame will be waiting at the gate of the temple to find trouble?" ”

Zhao Lihua sat on the couch: "She doesn't trouble me, how can she let people know that I am innocent?" ”

"What about that maid, why didn't Miss kill it? The slave maid looked like Mrs. Lin instructed her to do it! Jixiang said indignantly.

Zhao Lihua told Ji Xiang Ruyi about the private affair between the maid and the guard.

Ji Xiang Ruyi suddenly realized: "It's still the young lady's meticulous observation." ”

The three of them talked for a while, and after a day of tossing today, Zhao Lihua was a little tired, so Ji Xiang Ruyi waited for her to wash and rest.

Following.

Zhao Lihua got up early and walked around the yard with good luck.

The scent of bamboo in the early morning is even stronger.

The dew-washed bamboo knots, the breeze shakes the golden jade branches.

The branches swayed in the wind, and the morning sun cast on the ground through the bamboo.

Zhao Lihua likes bamboo very much, because bamboo is not afraid of wind and rain, and is not afraid of frost and snow.

"Insist that Qingshan will not relax, the roots are in the broken rocks, and the thousands of blows are still tough, and the wind is blowing from east to west, north and south." Zhao Lihua walked and thought of a poem, and couldn't help but read it.

A sweeping novice heard her verses and stepped forward to greet him: "Oh Buddha Mito, the little monk is polite, I didn't expect the young lady to have such a style as a woman in the boudoir." ”

Zhao Lihua looked at the person who spoke, it was a young novice who was not very old.

Although the other party is a novice, he still avoids suspicion well, as long as someone wants to find trouble, he can make up anything.

So Zhao Lihua smiled with a salute, said a word of reward, and left in a hurry with auspicious wishes.

The sweeping novice took the broom and looked at her departing back, but did not come back to her senses for a long time.

"Senior brother, what are you looking at? If you don't sweep the floor well, the master will punish you. A scolding voice came from afar.

The novice who swept the floor came back to his senses and continued to sweep the floor with a broom.

Zhao Lihua returned to the house with auspicious wishes and rested for a while, and heard Mama Qian calling everyone out in the courtyard to gather and go to see the old lady together.

Out of Lin Yunxia and Aunt Lin, everyone was very curious about this old lady who had never appeared in the mansion.

After the group was ready, Lin Yunxia walked in front and led the group to the Zen courtyard where the old lady lived.

The Zen temple where the old lady lived was the Pure Heart Temple.

It is an independent one-bedroom small courtyard, although the yard is small, but it is very well arranged.

"The winding path leads to the secluded place, and the Zen room is deep with flowers and trees."

It is most appropriate to use this poem to describe the artistic conception of the Pure Heart Temple.

In front of the Zen courtyard where the old lady lived, Lin Yunxia first stepped forward to greet the old lady who was guarding the door, and the old lady went to tell the old lady.

Then he led a group of people to the old lady's meditation room.

When they arrived at the door of the meditation room, the old lady asked them to wait first.

Because the old lady is still worshipping the Buddha, this is the old lady's habit, every morning she has to worship the Buddha and then have breakfast.

Everyone waited outside the meditation room for about two quarters of an hour, and then the old lady slowly walked out with the old woman's hand.

As soon as she came out, Lin Yunxia led everyone to salute.

The old lady glanced at the people on the ground with her sharp eyes and said, "Everyone get up, I have been meditating on the Buddha for all these years, and I no longer care about these false rituals." ”

Zhao Lihua didn't believe her words at all.

Don't care about these false courtesies, and wait so long to get people up? But it remains to be seen how it turns out!

After everyone got up, the old lady looked at Zhao Lihua: "This is the Miss Yan that our house just found?" ”

Lin Yunxia hurriedly replied, "Yes, old lady." ”

The old lady nodded, twisted the Buddha beads in one hand, and asked, "I heard that she grew up in the countryside, can you arrange for her to learn the rules?" ”

Lin Yunxia replied: "No, although the fourth lady grew up in the countryside, she is knowledgeable and reasonable, and she doesn't need her daughter-in-law to arrange for her to learn the rules." ”

She seemed to be praising Zhao Lihua when she said this, but in fact, she was saying that Zhao Lihua was arrogant and unwilling to learn the rules.

Really.

When the old lady heard this, she paused with her hand holding the Buddha beads, and her face sank: "After returning to the house this time, we must arrange for her to learn the rules, and we must not lose the face of our Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Lin Yunxia nodded again and again, saying that she would definitely urge Zhao Lihua to learn the rules.

Between these few words, Zhao Lihua determined that this old lady was not a good stubble.

Obviously, she was standing here, but the old lady didn't ask her directly, but asked Lin Yunxia.

She has been away from home for so long, as a grandmother, seeing that her granddaughter didn't ask her how she was doing outside? Have you been wronged?

Instead, he asked her if she had learned the rules, worried that she would lose the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion!

After the old lady asked Lin Yunxia some short things about the parents, the old lady beside her had already brought breakfast.

The old lady waved her hand to everyone: "Okay, you guys go back to breakfast first!" The fourth lady stayed and followed me to worship the Buddha after having dinner with me. ”
