Chapter 490: The Hidden Temple is a nunnery
Ruoyin Temple, after Yue Zhanyan and Xiyan entered, immediately, a sister-in-law came to her.
"This little master, is there something wrong?"
Xiyan and Feihua just tidied up their things, this is a small courtyard, there are only two rooms in it, but it is just enough for them to live.
Yue Zhanyan knew that she was here to be punished, so she didn't find much pickiness, she was not a very picky person.
"Little Nifa is Mu Chan, Master Jinghui asked Xiao Ni to arrange the next thing for the donor, since the donor is here to be punished, then from now on, sprinkle and sweep the courtyard first."
Yue Zhanyan didn't expect these nuns to be so unkind, but she was originally here to be punished, and it was not wrong for them to do so.
Yue Zhanyan took the broom and said, "Okay, I'll go right away, thank you for your little master." ”
When Xiyan and Feihua came out, they heard Yue Zhanyan's words, and the two of them walked up to Yue Zhanyan and said, "Madam, let your subordinates go." ”
Although they said that they were here to be punished, the two of them couldn't bear to really let her do things, and the master must not bear it either.
"Donor, this is your own business, how can you pretend to others, if so, it is not easy for Xiao Ni and the others to explain to the saint."
Before Yue Zhanyan could speak, Na Mu Chan spoke, and said indifferently, Yue Zhanyan smiled and said, "It's okay, you just wait for me in the courtyard." ”
Saying that, she was about to leave with Mu Chan, Mu Chan glanced at the clothes on her body, and then, she took out two sets of clothes and said: "Since Mrs. is here to be punished, it is not appropriate to wear these silk satins again, this dress is for Mrs., Mrs. Please change her clothes first." ”
Yue Zhanyan looked at the dusty clothes in her hand, put the broom aside, then took it, turned around and went into the house to change her clothes.
Seeing this, the two of them felt very uncomfortable, but Yue Zhanyan hadn't said anything yet, so naturally the two of them couldn't say anything.
After Yue Zhanyan changed her clothes, she came out and took the broom again and said, "Okay, let's go." ”
Seeing her cooperate like this, Mu Chan pursed his mouth and didn't say anything, but turned around to lead the way.
Under the worried eyes of Xiyan and Feihua, Yue Zhanyan followed Mu Chan to sweep the courtyard, most of the courtyards were fallen leaves, and now in late autumn, there are a lot of fallen leaves in the yard.
However, Yue Zhanyan always felt that something was wrong, even if it was late autumn, there shouldn't be so many fallen leaves on the ground.
It was a thick layer, as if no one had swept it for days, but she was new to the city and was unfamiliar with it.
She still didn't say anything, but directly began to sweep, and Mu Chan stood aside and watched her clean.
Yue Zhanyan hasn't done these jobs for a long time, and when she was in Shangshu Mansion before, those subordinates relied on her stupidity, and it was estimated that she lost a lot of work for her to do.
Not only sweeps the floor, but also washes clothes and washes the toilet, as the eldest lady, she does a lot of these things.
However, it was also because those subordinates tempted her with some food, she often couldn't eat enough at that time, and all the subordinates ate better than her.
Lincui used to teach her not to do things that didn't conform to her identity for the sake of food, but where did she understand, she only knew that if she did that, she would have something to eat.
Then she and Lincui will not be hungry, every time Lincui said she nodded and said she knew, but when they took out food again, she couldn't help but tempt.
The cycle goes on and on, so in Shangshufu, she is a big lady who can be bullied by everyone, and she herself has no consciousness of being a big lady.
Yue Zhanyan swept the ground, and recalled the days when she and Lincui were dependent on each other in Shangshu Mansion, although those days were a little hard, but they were extremely real.
In particular, Lincui's loyalty to her is particularly obvious and precious in Shangshu Mansion.
Seeing that she could laugh even when she swept the floor, Mu Chan was a little incomprehensible.
Don't they all say that these nobles don't touch the spring water with their ten fingers, the big shelves are boundless, and they have always been brocade clothes and jade food, how can they ever do such rough work, this prime minister's wife, is it really so different?
Mu Chan has lived in this hidden temple since she was a child, she has never gone down the mountain, and many things are learned from pilgrims.
There is also a part of what the senior sisters said after returning from their travels in the mountains, and in her impression, the nobles are difficult to serve.
It's not that she hasn't received them, although those people seem to be very kind on the surface, especially in front of the various bodhisattvas, the appearance of respect and piety makes her feel that she is not as sincere as them.
But in private, she still saw the kind ladies and ladies in front of those people, and they either beat or scolded the people around her.
A small thing can punish the maids around her, and she has always had a bad impression of the nobles.
This time, Yue Zhanyan was punished to their temple, and she wanted to see if she was like those nobles, originally she only went up the mountain today, and she would start punishing tomorrow.
However, she deliberately asked her to do things in advance today, thinking that she would lose her temper, but she didn't expect her to be so cooperative.
Mu Chan observed for a while, and then left quietly, Yue Zhanyan didn't pay attention to when she left.
Mu Chan went to report to Mrs. Jinghui about Yue Zhanyan's situation, Jinghui closed her eyes, chanted words in her mouth, and played with Buddha beads in her hands.
After a long time, she spoke: "Let's keep an eye on her for the time being, the matter that the Holy Lord confessed, you can't be sloppy." ”
Although there was some strange behavior of the master, Mu Chan still didn't say much, and when she went back, she found that the courtyard had been cleaned.
After Yue Zhanyan finished cleaning, she sat on the stone bench in the courtyard tiredly, wiping the sweat from her forehead with her sleeves.
It's really easy to be rich and poor, it's hard to be poor, she hasn't done this for a long time, and now after doing it, she finds that she is really tired.
I don't know if it's because of the injury, or if it's because she hasn't done these rough jobs for a long time.
In short, she swept the yard for two hours, and finally cleaned it, and the whole person felt tired.
"Who told you to rest, it's not even finished sweeping over there."
Yue Zhanyan sat down, and in less than a quarter of an hour, she heard Mu Chan's voice coming, she turned her head to look at her and said, "It's going to be dark this day, Master Mu Chan, the saint didn't say that I won't be allowed to eat." ”
She hadn't spoken much since the beginning, but it was dinner time, and she had to keep cleaning.
The emperor punished her, but he didn't say that he wouldn't let her eat, Mu Chan didn't expect her to talk back, and he didn't speak for a while.
And now is indeed the time for dinner, the monks should be merciful, but in the Ruoyin Temple, there is no such thing as compassion.
Mu Chan couldn't help but wonder how long she could endure it.
