Chapter Twenty-Nine: The White Lotus
At this time, I let go of the purple smoke, only to see her face full of questions, when she just entered, her face was still full of worry, it was only an hour, but she came out happy like a child.
The abbot of Huijue inside looked at her with peace and compassion on his face, "Miss Su, the old man has something to persuade you, everything is empty, please don't force it." ”
I smiled and nodded at him, and then, taking my mother's hand, left.
Walking on the road, my mother asked me, "Miao'er, you have been in there for an hour, what are you asking?"
Su Miaojing's soft and peaceful tone, "Mother, I don't want to say, it's not a bad thing anyway, don't worry." ”
Su Mu saw that she didn't want to mention it, so she didn't force her to say it.
So, Su's mother went to the Buddhist hall again, chanted the scriptures, and the second brother accompanied me to hang out.
As I walked around, I came across a group of people, only to see them get out of the ornate carriage. One of the men dressed in moon white was the same man who had almost hit the child the night before, and he was also riding on the tall horse today, followed by the personal guard named Li Mo.
I looked at the second brother in front of me with a puzzled face, "Second brother, who are they?" ”
I only heard my second brother's soft tone answer, "They are from the Dingyuan Hou Mansion, you see, the noble lady wearing a purple and black dress is the lady of the Hou Mansion, the one next to her is the second lady of the Hou Mansion, and the one who is riding on the horse is the prince of the Hou Mansion." ”
I sighed lightly, only to see them come forward, probably another greeting, she didn't like it the most, so she was ready to leave.
But I heard a coquettish voice behind me, "Su Miaojing." ”
I stopped, turned around and looked at her suspiciously, this second lady of the Hou Mansion is beautiful and delicate, but compared with her own appearance, it is much inferior.
I saw that she had a pair of light-colored eyebrows, a pair of big apricot eyes, a high nose bridge, a delicate face, peach-pink lips, and a harmless appearance, just like the white lotus, seemingly harmless, but extremely insidious. I saw that there was a hint of viciousness and gloom in her eyes.
Since the last time she saw her at the banquet, she had a little deep jealousy, because at the banquet, His Royal Highness King Yue's eyes have always been on her, and she has never moved away from her, like King Yue, a proud son of the sky, like Su Miaojing. Coupled with her beauty, she was even more jealous, and she had that mesmerizing face, not that she was charming, but the kind of face that she could attract others and make men crazy for her by doing nothing. So, she was jealous, extremely jealous, and when she heard that she had been postponed from marriage, she was very happy for some reason, and wanted to count her down.
In the past, Su Miaojing was not in good health, so she never participated in any banquets in the palace, not even at the family banquet at home. This is also the reason why Yuwen Jinlast doesn't know Su Miaojing.
I saw that he heard the name of his little sister shouting, Su Miaojing, with a look of disbelief on her face.
If she is the eldest lady of General Su's mansion, then she will marry His Royal Highness the King of Chaoyue soon, and he still thinks that when he sees her again, he must tell her, I like you. But it was too late.
If I had met you before, we might not have been cousins, and if I hadn't left the capital, maybe I wouldn't have met you, so maybe I wouldn't be so sad now! It's a pity that God arranged for me to meet you, but it also separated me from you for thousands of miles, and I will never be able to reach you.
His eyes instantly dimmed, and he looked at her with a deep sense of loss and sentimentality in his eyes.
Su Miaojing looked at her indifferently, "What are you doing?" ”
Mrs. Hou next to her glanced at her and signaled her not to cause trouble.
Yuwen Ruolian, the second lady of the Hou Mansion, said with sarcasm and sneer, "I heard that you were delayed by His Royal Highness King Yue's wedding, and you still have the heart to come to Xingguo Temple, I really didn't expect you to think so much." You must have come to Xingguo Temple to ask for the blessing of the Buddha, and you will not be divorced by His Royal Highness King Yue! At this, she hid her face and smiled.
A certain woman is thinking in her heart, who is she looking for to provoke whom, there are always people who like to come to find their own stubble.
When his second brother heard this, he was about to refute, but I grabbed him, and Yuwen Jinlast scolded angrily, "Little sister, don't talk nonsense." ”
So, she rolled her eyes at her and shot back in a cold voice, "Who is this?" is so bold, in this pure place of Buddhism, like an old dog, barking constantly, and not afraid to spare the Buddha's cultivation, what do you say? Second brother. ”
His second brother was made to laugh by this obvious remark of scolding Huai. As for Yuwen Jinlast standing aside, she felt that her sister was indeed too much, and she should teach her a lesson.
These words not only scolded her for barking like a dog, but also scolded her for insulting the Buddha.
Yuwen Ruolian was so angry that she pointed at her, ready to scold her, but Su Miaojing preempted her, "What are you pointing me for?" Did I say it was you? Do you count as admitting that you're the old dog? Screaming here. ”
This is even more annoying than what she just said, admit it or not, she is not a person inside and out.
In a few words, she had nothing to say, and a certain woman hooked her lips and sneered, "Warn you, don't mess with me, otherwise, the next time we meet, it will not be so angry that you will have nothing to say, but you will not be able to get out of bed for several months, you should have heard of my prestige, if you don't mind, I can also let you see and understand, I guess, you have heard, my third sister is still lying in bed now?" "Although the last time I saw her get out of bed, it was because King Yue came to the mansion and had to get up, in fact, it would take her at least more than three months to get out of bed, of course, this is a woman, if it is a man, more than a month is enough.
Su Miaojing glanced at him indifferently, and Yuwen Ruolian took a step back in her mother's arms.
Seeing this, Su Miaojing turned to look at the second brother and said coquettishly, "Second brother, I'm dying of hunger, let's go have lunch!" Uh-huh! Shaking his arm, like a child who asks an adult for candy, and the indifferent and resolute woman just now, is it clear that the person in front of him is a little girl who has not grown up?
Seeing this, Su Ziyi hooked her pretty nose and a spoiled expression, "Okay, let's go, let's go to dinner." ”
Seeing that he had such a harmonious relationship with his sister made him have a little longing. Since her sister Rujin married the prince six years ago, she has rarely come home, but this little sister Ruolian is pampered by her mother, and she has a headache every time she sees her. He actually longs for the warmth and harmony of the family, but he is the son of the Hou Mansion himself, and he carries the responsibility of the entire family on his shoulders, so that he is sometimes out of breath, he really wants to pick his son and leave, he doesn't care about anything, he doesn't care about anything, he just wants to live for himself casually, but he can't, because the life of the whole mansion will be handed over to his own hands in the future, he feels so heavy burden, but he has to carry it.
Then, they left this place, and the people of the Hou Mansion also left this place.
