Chapter 444: Xiangshan
In September, the fragrant mountain, the green trees are verdant, and from a distance, the Ganlu Temple is like wandering in a green wave.
Dou Zhao and the others changed into a soft sedan chair at the foot of Xiangshan, and went to Ganlu Temple along the spacious bluestone slab steps.
Jiang Yan lifted the sedan curtain, breathed the air with a bit of coldness greedily, and felt that the whole person was alive.
She heard Ruotong beside the sedan in front of her smile and said to Ganlu: "Sister, this Zen temple and you have the same name." Who came up with your name? That's good! ”
Ganlu snorted at her, and said proudly: "My name was obtained by Aunt Cui. Aunt Cui said, may I be like a drop of water in Guanyin's hand, in addition to being clean in my heart, I must also be able to moisten others. ”
Ruotong asked curiously, "Who is Aunt Cui?" ”
"Yes," said Ganlu, after a slight pause, "it is Madame's grandmother." ”
Ruotong couldn't help sticking out her tongue and hurriedly said, "What about Sister Su Juan?" What is she? ”
"Same meaning as me." Ganlu smiled, "Let's get into less trouble, our hearts are like mirrors, and don't be blinded by those glory and wealth, and forget what we are." ”
Ruotong shouted dissatisfiedly and said, "Why did we all turn red when we talked about it?" ”
"Is red bad?" Ganlu smiled, "Red is the most solemn, you are the lady who serves closely, this name is just right." ”
Dou Zhao in the sedan chair couldn't help laughing when he listened.
The names of several maids are also her experience.
When she first came to Kyoto, her grandmother was afraid that she would be bullied, and hoped that the maids and women around her would be loyal to her; By the time Manna reached the age of leaving the house, she had established herself in the English Mansion, and what she asked for was no longer loyalty and obedience, but the bearing of being a housewife; Then the little maid who came in later. are all named after the word "whisk", and the maid and servant woman are no longer dependent on her.
In the future, what will she give the maids a name?
After thinking about it, Ganlu Temple arrived.
They got off the sedan chair, and the host and the monk were already waiting in front of the mountain gate.
After seeing the ceremony, the host who was over forty years old avoided it, and the monk who had passed the year of knowing his fate took them to visit Ganlu Temple.
The two continent cogscarus trees in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall have a thick hug, although there are a hundred years. But it is still luxuriant, brilliant as fire.
Jiang Yan and others praised it.
The monk Zhike talked about the history of these two trees - how Ganlu Temple was destroyed in the war and how it was rebuilt, but the two coggie trees have always been standing......
The story is tortuous and interesting, and Jiang Yan and others listened to it with relish.
This is what every first-time monk who comes to Ganlu Temple must say. In his previous life, Dou Zhao had heard it several times. As soon as the Zhike monk spoke, she knew what would happen below, but looking at the sometimes amazed and sometimes stunned expressions on the faces of Jiang Yan and the others, her mood was very happy.
They played in Ganlu Temple, and stayed at Ganlu Temple at noon to eat fast and take a lunch break.
Dou Zhao felt a little tired, so he walked around the small courtyard twice and eliminated his appetite. Just rest.
Jiang Yan felt full of energy, and pulled Jiang Lizhu to the release pond next door to see the turtles and golden fish.
Although the Miao family is difficult, the children of the Miao family are still raised in a proper manner. Miao Ansu had a rare trip before she got married, but now that she finally came out, she really wanted to walk with Jiang Yan and them, so it can be seen that Dou Zhao rested. She was afraid that the servants would think she was frivolous and look down on her. After thinking about it, he said goodbye to Jiang Yan with a smile, and went back to the room arranged for her.
The surroundings were quiet, Miao Ansu closed his eyes, but he couldn't sleep.
At this time, the ears are particularly sensitive.
She heard the light footsteps of a maid walking under the porch in front of her wing, and someone whispered "Sister Fuye" and said, "What is the matter with you coming here?" ”
At this time, the masters all stopped, and the voice of the flicker was also very low, and said, "Do you bring needles and threads?" , Sister Ruotong's sleeves were torn just now. ”
It was Miao Ansu's little maid named Liu Hong who spoke, and said with a smile: "I have a needle and thread with me, but the second wife has already rested, so I have to ask Sister Fuye to wait here." ”
"It doesn't matter." Fu Ye was very polite, "I'm sorry for you." ”
Liu Hong said a few polite words, tiptoed into the house, and after a while, took a sewing kit and came out.
Miao Ansu pursed his lips.
It is said that the Dou family is well-governed, and when he goes out, the maid around him doesn't even bring a sewing kit, which kind of family is this? This is really no tiger in the mountains, and the monkey is the king. If her mother-in-law was still alive, Song Mo had not been made a son so early, and if there were a few more brothers in the Song family, there might not be a time when her Dou clan would be the king and hegemon.
This is really rich and natural, and it is not up to anyone at all!
is like this flick leaf, but she is only a teenager, and she hasn't combed her hair yet, because she is serving by Dou Zhao's side, even her eldest girl sees it, and she also has to respect "sister", thinking about it makes people feel condensed.
She was cranky.
Whisk the leaves to return the sewing kit.
Liu Hong smiled: "Sister sewed it so quickly? ”
"I'm quick with my hands and feet." Fu Ye smiled and said with emotion, "You are really careful. We all remember to bring a sewing kit when we go out, but when we go out, we forget about it. She grinned, "Sister Ganlu taught me a lesson just now, saying that if I am so careless next time, she will transfer me to the front yard to clean the toilet." ”
She spoke in a brisk tone, clearly not taking the words of manna to heart. It can be seen that Dou Zhao treats people very generously.
"My sister has won the prize." Liu Hong was polite to her with some envy, "I have been working in the second wife's house since I was a child, and this is also what our second wife taught well." ”
Miao Ansu was very relieved to hear it.
Fu Ye nodded again and again, and agreed: "The second wife is a good person at first glance, but it's a pity that she married the second master......" Before the words fell, she was shocked and lost her words, and she was busy covering her mouth.
It's a pity it's too late.
Liu Hong's face was full of shock.
Fu Ye waved his hand in a panic: "I, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything!" ”
She turned and ran.
Liu Hong was dumbfounded.
Miao Ansu in the house felt like a river and a sea.
She sat up and shouted "Liu Hong" loudly, wanting Ji Hong to take a few taels of silver to Liu Hong: "You use this money to buy snacks and flowers, and if you take the leaves, see what the second master did in the past?" ”
Liu Hong responded and took the silver.
But this is Ganlu Temple. Even if there is silver, who will go down the mountain to buy it?
If you want to brush the leaves, you have to wait until you go back to the British Mansion.
Miao Ansu's heart was like being scratched by a cat, and she couldn't be at peace for a moment.
Jiang Yan and Jiang Lizhu had a good time.
Seeing that they were interested in the contents of the release pond, the monk sent two small novices to serve them, and brought a few dried steamed buns to feed them, causing a group of fish to rush to the water in front of them.
The two of them sat in the gazebo next to the release pond and fed the fish.
Jiang Yan looked up by chance and saw a familiar figure standing outside the courtyard gate from a distance.
She was shocked, pointed to the distance and instructed Yinghong: "You go and see what's going on?" ”
Yinghong went away in response. He quickly turned back and said, "It's Lord Chen from the Jinyi Wei Town, I heard that Mrs. is climbing the mountain here, and I came to say hello to Mrs. Wu Yi said that Mrs. was taking a lunch break, and Lord Chen decided to wait......"
Jiang Yan was startled. Said: "Why is Lord Chen here?" ”
Yinghong didn't know, so she ran to ask again, and came back and said, "Lord Chen went out of the city on business and passed by Xiangshan." ”
Jiang Yan's expression was a little complicated.
Jiang Lizhu stroked her shoulder and said softly, "What's wrong?" ”
Jiang Yan thought about it, told Jiang Lizhu some things with his ear, and said hesitantly: "I want me to help him inquire about my uncle." No, it's news from Li Liang...... At least let Li Liang know that I am doing well in the Song family. ”
Jiang Lizhu can understand Jiang Yan's mood very well.
She thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go with you and ask!" ”
Jiang Yan was overjoyed. thanked Jiang Lizhu again and again, and repeatedly told her: "Don't tell my sister-in-law, I'm afraid they will be sad." ”
"Your sister-in-law is not such a stingy person." Jiang Lizhu smiled, "But." I think my cousin is stingy. Just be careful not to let your cousin know. ”
Jiang Yan defended his brother: "He is angry that I was bullied, and he is grateful to others." But if it weren't for Li Liang, I didn't know how much I would have to suffer when I was a child? That's it. I can't resent him. ”
"It's good for you to do that." Jiang Lizhu said with a smile, "I always hate in my heart, and I will inevitably not be affected, and gradually I will become hateful." ”
She thought that some sisters were unhappy after the change of home, and they always complained, but as a result, they seemed to have changed as if they were different people, so she always warned herself.
Jiang Yan finally found someone who did not reprimand him, and suddenly felt like a confidant.
When she was talking to Chen Jia, Jiang Lizhu was standing on the steps not far from them.
Facing the expectation in Jiang Yan's eyes, Chen Jiaqiang endured it, so he didn't show a strange expression.
Song Mo made Wei Quan, He Hao, and He Qingyuan look like people anymore, how could he let Li Liang go?
Li Liang's whole family is now in the military, living in a hundred households under Tianjin Wei, there is no food if you don't farm, and the whole family may not have one-third of Li Liang's income as a bookkeeper for a year, but the hundred households are also ordered to monitor Li Liang's family, Li Liang can't figure out other ways to earn a penny of silver. Several children's studies were also interrupted, and Li Liang was able to teach the children literacy on their own. It is possible for others to leave the guard through amnesty or the like, but Li Liang is a military household who voluntarily joined for fear of Song Mo's revenge, and it is impossible for his children and grandchildren to become good citizens in the future...... Is this good or bad?
Chen Jia looked at Jiang Yan's eyes as clear as water, and only felt a splitting headache.
Sue her for the truth?
With her temperament, she will only hide in the quilt and cry secretly.
Don't sue her?
If one day she finds out that she lied to her, she will definitely hold a grudge against herself.
Chen Jia regretted coming to Dou Zhao very much.
It's just a greeting to impress Mrs. Dou about herself, and when Mrs. Dou returns to the city, she "meets" on the road, so why do you have to wait here for Mrs. Dou to wake up?
He weighed it again and again, and finally had to smile and say, "Li Liang is very good in Tianjin. With the addition of military status, children and grandchildren will be able to eat imperial food in the future. It's just a little bad, a few acres of land are divided, and you have to cultivate it yourself, which is not as good as making more money as a bookkeeper in the past. ”
