Chapter 019: Pure Xuan
Jingxuan smiled slightly and returned the salute. When he got up, he was already facing the old lady Yan: "A few days ago, I received a message saying that the three girls in the house were coming, but I never thought that the old lady would also come." It's freezing on this day, why don't you tell me in advance, so that Jingxuan can clean all the steps up the mountain. ”
"You dislike me, you're afraid that I'll cause you trouble, and you want to push me out of this nunnery."
"Don't you dare, old lady, you said this to slap Jingxuan's face." Jing Xuan stepped forward and grabbed Mrs. Yan's other arm: "If the old lady is willing, she will live in this nunnery, Jing Xuan can't wait for it." ”
"Pick up the good ones." Old Lady Yan motioned for Yan Suwen to let go, and moved the entire weight of her body to Jingxuan's body: "You haven't seen this kid, this is Bai Qing and Ruo'er in front of him, named Suwen." ”
"Look, these eyebrows and eyes look like white and green."
"Master Jingxuan also recognizes my father?"
"Before I entered the nunnery, the layman's surname was Yan." Jing Xuan still smiled: "In terms of seniority, your father Bai Qing should call me an aunt." ”
Come on, this is a distant relative of the Yan family, no wonder he is so intimate with the old lady, and his speech is less polite.
"Ruo Jingxuan remembers correctly, old lady, you don't like going out in winter the most, why did you suddenly remember to take two girls to live in the nunnery. Although my meditation nunnery is not bad, it is still much simpler than the inner house. Old lady, can you stand this body? ”
"It's hard to put into words, in the end, it's not for that child." Old Lady Yan swept Yan Mutong, who was following closely behind, with her afterglow. "What kind of person is her mother, you know in your heart, following that kind of mother, and being spoiled by her when she was a child, indulgence, stunned to develop a suspicious person. In the past few days, there has been a commotion in the house, causing a lot of trouble, I thought to myself, you are clean in this nunnery, bring her, and let her think about it carefully. If this temperament is raised, you will be able to find a serious family in the future and have a good home. If she can't raise her well, I will leave her with you, so as not to go back and embarrass our Yan family again. ”
"Look at what the old lady said, can there be anything bad about this child of the Yan family? is still a child, and his temperament is inevitably impatient. ”
"I'll be sixteen after the New Year, and I'm not a few months away from the child of the Bai Qing family, look at the child of the Bai Qing family, and then look at her, is this a little impatient? If I had to say, this is the root of the problem. If I had been ruthless, I wouldn't have been as angry as I am now. ”
"How many characters like the old lady can there be?" Jing Xuan comforted on the side: "You, you haven't seen those ordinary children, there are not as many as our three girls." ”
"That's it, anyway, I brought this person to you, and what happens in the future depends on you and that child."
"If you want me to say, old lady, you will live here in peace, and the children's affairs will be handled by the children themselves. I happen to have a freshly brewed plum wine here, old lady, you can try it. ”
"Taste it, try it, and honestly, I'm still thinking about your plum wine here."
"I said, where is the old lady here to take care of the third girl, obviously to taste my plum wine."
"Reluctantly?"
"Willing to give up, don't say it's plum wine, it's my meditation nunnery, the old lady likes it, you can also take it."
"You don't give it rarely, but I don't want it. Let's go, take me to taste your plum wine. ”
When the old lady met Jingxuan, it was as if she had changed into a different person. There is less rejection of people in the Yan family, and more childlike willfulness.
Walking into the nunnery, Yan Suwen found that he liked it more and more. Ordinary temples and Taoist temples are either related to the Buddha and Bodhisattva, or close to the immortals, but this meditation nunnery jumps out of the secular framework, and even the names on those plaques are very elegant.
The square room where Master Jingxuan lives is called Lianwu, and the house furnishings are mostly lotus-based. The square room next to the lotus dock is called Yingle, which was left by Jingxuan to Mrs. Yan. The interior space is sufficient, and it is divided into two by a curtain, which is convenient for the next person to live with the old lady. After passing through the crescent gate and arriving at another smaller courtyard, Yan Suwen chose the one that was closer to the crescent gate, and Yan Mutong lived in the opposite sun. The rest of the servants also arranged their own arrangements, and after a short period of excitement, the meditation nunnery returned to its former peace.
In the evening, snow fell again.
A little nun hurried into the lotus dock.
Inside the house, Jingxuan opened her eyes, she stared at the little nun and asked, "How is it?" ”
"It's been settled."
"Is there anything unusual?"
"It's business as usual."
"Tonight is the opportunity."
"Tonight?" The little nun raised her head: "Can't you wait any longer?" There are so many people in the nunnery today, and I am afraid that it will not be appropriate to do it at this time. ”
"Are you scared?"
"No, I'm not afraid." The little nun shook her head: "I just heard that it is someone from the Yan Mansion who came today, this Yan family is a family of imperial doctors, and the things we do are only afraid that we can't be coaxed." ”
"Some things seem bad, but they are actually good. Some things, which seem to be good, are actually conceived. In this world, no one knows the old lady better than me, and as for the two girls of the Yan family, they are no different from other boudoir ladies in the city. ”
Jingxuan said and waved his hand: "Go!" It's business as usual, there will be no problems. ”
The little nun opened her mouth to say something, but when she heard footsteps outside, she swallowed the words that had not yet been spoken.
Through the window, the two overheard a conversation outside.
"Isn't Grandmother awake yet?"
"Yes, the old lady has drunk a few more glasses of plum wine, and she is sleeping soundly now."
"Do you have a decanting soup? Although this plum wine is made from plums, it also has a wine word. My grandmother was old, and when she woke up at night, she was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable. ”
"Second Miss, don't worry, the decanting soup has been prepared."
"You're all with your grandmother, and you've always done things properly." Yan Suwen glanced indoors, "I live over there in Xunxin, if my grandmother tells me, you can call me at any time." ”
"It's rare that the second lady has a heart, let's write it down."
"Has the third sister ever been here?" When she went out just now, she glanced at Chao Xieyang and found that the door of the square room was closed, and the footprints in front of the door were also extending outward. I thought she was here to see her grandmother, but right now, there is no one who sees her.
"The third lady came to say goodbye, and when she learned that the old lady was still asleep, she went over there." Mama Yan pointed to the front yard: "Second Miss don't worry, this meditation nunnery, Third Miss has also been here a few times." I guess she was irritable and wanted to look around. ”
"It's really clean in this nunnery, and I'll look around." Yan Suwen put his hands together and sighed.
Because of the relationship between the old lady Yan, Mama Yan, who has been serving by the old lady's side, already has a little like Yan Suwen, at this time, seeing her playful expression and cute movements, not as deliberately as the ladies in the house, she was stunned to separate a level from her subordinates, and she liked it more and more, and even showed a smile of understanding.
In the lotus dock, Jing Xuan shook his head lightly at the little nun and motioned for her to keep quiet.
The footsteps faded away, and the little nun waited for a moment before leaving the lotus dock.
The mountain is silent, and the meditation nunnery is built on the top of the mountain, and when the snow falls, the wind is stronger. The wind swept the snow and slammed it into her face over and over again, and she had to close her eyes and look for a place in the unfamiliar courtyard where she could take a break from the snow.
Half-blinded, she walked along the stone path in the small courtyard, and in her memory, she seemed to have gone up the stairs, and walked for a while to the corridor in front of her. There are several lanterns hanging in the corridor, a pink wall on the right, and a few vermilion columns on the left in the direction of the valley. With the wall shading, the wind is much lighter, the foreground is open, and the snow is falling, which makes it feel like a fairyland.
When Yan Su first arrived at Jingxin Nunnery, he naturally felt that everything was fresh. Judging from the architectural pattern of the temple looking at the meditation nunnery at the bottom of the mountain, the total construction area of this nunnery is not large, and even if she walks around without a purpose, it will not take an hour to walk back to the courtyard where she originally lived. With the reassurance pill, and the leisure of viewing, she walked down the corridor and down the stairs to a hall. Further from the hall, there is another courtyard, the courtyard door is ajar, and a few words can be faintly heard.
The voice was low, it was a man's.
Jingxin Nunnery is a nunnery, in order not to attract people's handle, only the noble ladies and young ladies who can stay in the nunnery are allowed to relax, and the domestic servants are only allowed to enter the backyard, and the men and handymen need to return and be placed in the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. Although this courtyard is small, it is located at the back of the meditation nunnery, and it is said that there should be no man appearing, but instead, what Yan Suwen heard was the voice of a man.
With three points of doubt and seven points of curiosity, she walked through the hall and towards the small courtyard with the gate ajar.
Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, and the snow fell into her eyes, and she subconsciously closed them, but in her ears she heard the man's laughter, mixed with the woman's painful moans. When I opened my eyes, I happened to see a little nun in disheveled clothes running to the gate of the courtyard in a panic, but she disappeared again in a hurry.
Yan Suwen bit her lip flap and was about to step forward to check, but a face poked out from behind the half door. looked at Yan Su and asked, paused for a moment, and quickly closed the door.
Ghosts!
There are definitely ghosts in this little courtyard!
Yan Suwen stepped forward quickly, but it was quiet inside the courtyard gate, and no sound could be heard anymore.
"Poof! Oooo ”
Knock on the door, first once, then twice.
Seeing that there was no movement in the courtyard, Yan Suwen simply clenched his fist, and was about to smash the door when the door opened from the inside, and it was still open at the same time.
Behind the door, there was an old nun, and behind the old nun stood a little nun.
That little nun is the one Yan Suwen has just seen, hiding behind the door.
"What is the reason why the girl is here?" The old nun spoke, her voice hoarse and unpleasant, as if her voice had been polished with sandpaper.
