Nanyang is late in spring, and half a moon has passed in a blink of an eye, and there is still occasional snow at night.

Since that day, Wu Shi has been lying down and sleeping for three days and three nights, and the two old ladies are anxious, but after waking up again, they are refreshed, and even the cough that has been cured has not been cured.

A stay is half a month, Diancui is really like here, there are not so many rules in the capital, the two old ladies are open-minded, and they are more tolerant of children playing, as long as they are not too much. Diancui has also become acquainted with several cousins and cousins these days.

"Fourth sister, this turtledove is too difficult to raise, and two of them have died in just ten days." Gui Yixuan cried with a sad face.

Dian Cui was sitting in front of the desk, carefully painting a snow scene near the window, listening to him crying on the side, and said lazily: "Two died, you still have three, and these three are born and raised, even if you have one merit......"

Gui Chuying, who was playing against himself with a chess game on the other side, smiled when he heard this: "It's also a merit, don't you have a teacher who teaches you to read and learn words, how can you still use idioms indiscriminately?" ”

"Wouldn't she be so angry with the old gentleman if she has a sweet and well-behaved face, but in fact she is lazy and slippery in private." Gui Chuyu bit the fried glutinous rice fruit and sneered.

Diancui looked at the glutinous rice fruit in her hand, and seemed to smile: "The second sister looks a little plumper than when I first met, and I want to try the credit of the glutinous rice fruit." ”

That's to say she's fat!

Gui Chuyu scolded: "Okay, you fourth sister, the first also said that you want to make up for me for the third aunt's good life, this son doesn't come to serve as a cow and a horse, and he dares to make fun of me!" ”

Saying that, he went to pinch some of Cui's itchy flesh with oily hands, and Gui Chuying was so noisy that the two of them couldn't do it, so he came to drive him away: "Go, you three leather monkeys go out quickly, don't disturb me to watch the chess game." ”

"I heard that the third brother's harrier training can catch rabbits, let's go and take a look!" Gui Yixuan proposed, since he caught a harrier, the third brother has no time to take him to play, only goes outside every day to train the harrier, forcing him to follow behind a few sisters, and he was teased by his mother.

Although the return of Nanyang County is not big, there is a big backyard at the back, and the backyard is connected to the green mountain.

The one who is responsible for training the harrier is a guard under his father, and Su Rili can't help but beg the third young master to teach him some punches and kicks. It's a pity that Lord Junshou is determined to let the third young master follow the literature, otherwise he would be a wizard who practices martial arts.

When a few went to the backyard, they just saw a high-spirited young man fighting with the harrier, only to see that he was agile, although he was occasionally forced to retreat by the harrier, but the more frustrated and braver.

Diancui was fascinated by a few people, no one stepped forward, and when he left, even the youngest Gui Yixuan sighed and said: "My third brother likes martial arts the most, I heard that if he practices martial arts, he will definitely do something again...... It's a pity that Daddy won't allow it. ”

There are four brothers in his family, the eldest brother and the second brother have no talent for reading, and they follow their father to do business, especially the eldest brother is now able to take charge of himself outside.

The rest of the family is Gui Yi Nan and Gui Yi Xuan, the latter is only five or six years old, and he has only begun to read, and this talent has not yet been revealed, and the fourth master has to put his hope on the third Gui Yi Nan, whether he likes it or not, he has to study hard.

"Does Brother Yixuan want the third brother to practice martial arts?" Diancui asked.

Gui Yixuan nodded vigorously, but then his eyes darkened again, and he said with a sad face: "I'm afraid that I'm also a piece of reading material." ”

Gui Chuyu was amused by his words, and Dian Cui also laughed:

"Brother Yixuan, why should you be arrogant, you will be able to lift in the future."

"Really? How does the fourth sister know? Gui Yixuan was young and smiled at what she said, and Gui Chuyu on the other side only thought that Diancui was comforting him, and didn't think much about it.

What Dian Cui said is true, in her previous life, when she was an aunt in the An family, she had heard Gui Chuyu say that they had the youngest man in their home, and he was a brother of the second master's family in his hometown.

Now that I think about it, isn't it the little brother in front of me!

After another three days, Diancui's father returned to the third master.

He naturally came here to take his wife and daughter home.

"Master, why are you here, this foot is going to be good, and I don't know if I will be a good student......" Wu got into the carriage with a red face under the teasing gaze of the concubines.

The third master said goodbye to the second old lady and the old lady, and went to the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law to sing a song, and finally stood in front of the fourth brother and sister Wang and Gui Chuyu.

Gui Chuyu didn't expect the third uncle to come over in person to apologize, and immediately turned red again.

Wang also blushed and hurriedly said politely that the family does not speak two words, and the third uncle should not mention it again.

The family of three sat in the carriage and walked slowly to the capital, with Diancui pillowing on her mother's lap, listening to her father and her whispering.

"When I left, I saw that my sister-in-law's face was wrong, did the master tell her something?" Wu asked.

When the third master came, after going to greet the two old ladies, he went to find his sister-in-law.

"Yes, for the sake of Nian'er, he failed to win the promotion last year, this time he returned from a study tour, if the eldest brother is willing to hand over the income from his study tour and serve as his recommender, Nian'er can enter the country as a shadow prison student to study."

"Yes...... Can the eldest brother agree to this? "The last time the lord did not help, this time he is willing to help the matter of the year Wu hesitated.

But seeing that the old man nodded slightly, his eyes were determined, meaning that the eldest brother would help.

The eldest lady and Gui Chuying also got up and returned to Beijing the day after the Wu family left. It's just that someone from the Wu family came to pick them up, but the two of them went back by themselves, but Gui Chuying didn't feel anything wrong, and the eldest lady was always a little worried in her heart.

The third master is good to the Wu family, and several of their concubines are envious in private, and they even refute the old lady's face for his wife, but they refuse to carry Grandma Yue into the door.

This kind of thing is a joke in the eyes of men, but to carry a concubine, Lao Tzu Niang just let it be lifted. But in the eyes of the women, it is completely different, who wants to share a man with other women, and who knows whether the one who brings in is a charming vixen or a cuckoo who comes to occupy the magpie's nest?

Speaking of which, even a self-disciplined person like the eldest lord has a concubine room, but if the concubine wants to have children, it is absolutely impossible!

"What did the third uncle tell his mother?" Gui Chuying interrupted the eldest lady's thoughts, only remembering that after the third uncle spoke to his mother, his mother's face was a little strange.

The eldest lady said that it was just that your father recommended your brother to go to the country to live as a shadow prisoner.

When Gui Chuying heard this, she couldn't help but be a little surprised:

"Last time...... Didn't Daddy help out, why did he ask for it again this time? Daddy usually hates mentioning the third uncle's family, and he will definitely not agree. Gui Chuying said and felt funny, her family seemed to owe the third uncle's family, obviously they wanted to take the initiative to ask for favor, the third aunt had lived with them for more than half a month, and she didn't see any intention of flattering, and before leaving, the third uncle actually came to ask for help with confidence.

To put it mildly, the three aunts' family seem to be here to collect debts.

Gui Chuying couldn't figure it out, but the eldest lady understood, and said with a smile: "The relationship between your father and your third uncle, where is it as simple as you think, wait and see, your father will help this time." ”

What kind of person is the eldest master, she is very clear about the person next to the pillow, and she also understands it if she wants to come to the third master. The eldest man has a tough temperament and a good face, but he is not a hard-hearted person, and he hesitated last time and failed to help his younger brother, and he already had a trace of guilt in his heart. Refused once, it's not good to refuse again, not to mention that this time his own nephew wants to be motivated, and he needs the help of his uncle, although he will be awkward on his face, but in the end he is willing to approve in his heart.

"Daddy, it's about to come out of the New Year, but the big brother is back?" Diancui's carriage slowly entered the capital, and the two adults talked about what happened these days, and when Dad talked about the sons of the West Courtyard who caused trouble again, Diancui remembered and asked.

"Your eldest brother hasn't come back yet, but Yin Changyin Gongzi, who went on a study tour with him, has returned." As the third master said, he remembered that his eldest son, Gui Bonian, had not known what was happening at home because of the old lady's deliberate concealment, and he didn't know that Diancui in front of him was his biological sister who had been lost by himself.

"Did the big brother have any letters?" Dian Cui suddenly remembered that in her previous life, she had heard a rumor, saying that the eldest brother Gui Bonian had somehow solved the Buddha's fate, and once made a fuss about becoming a monk.

She met with Gui Bonian a few times before, but it was very unpleasant, the big brother she saw saw her with a look of disgust and disgust, she was angry and helpless, and she forgot the rumor she had heard in her previous life for a while.

"I've sent a few letters, but I've only said a few words of greeting that don't hurt." When the old man said this, he was a little embarrassed, in fact, most of the letters from Gui Bonian were to Gui Chuyu's shush and ask for warmth, this fool! For the first time, Master Gui blamed this son who was most like him.

Did he mention it...... Along the way, you can meet any Buddhist Zen masters...... What about a class of characters? Dotting Cui's thoughtful words, he asked reluctantly.

At this time, both of the Wu family looked at their daughter with some puzzlement, and they didn't know why she asked like this, but the third master still thought about it carefully: "It seems that I mentioned it in my heart a few years ago, saying that he met an ascetic monk on the road and talked with people very happily, so I didn't say much else...... Why did Sister Cui ask this? ”

Yes! Sure enough, the rumors of the previous life are not groundless!

"No, it's nothing, it's just that along the way, I saw several monks passing by one after another, and it seemed that they were going to enter Beijing, so I thought about it and wanted to ask." Diancui had to find an excuse to prevaricate at will.

Unexpectedly, my father's face changed greatly, and he suddenly said sternly: "Don't talk about monks in the future, remember?" ”

"What are you doing to murder her, it's just a casual conversation, and monks are also people, so don't let people say it." Wu Shi was immediately dissatisfied.

"Don't talk about state affairs, don't talk nonsense if you women and children don't understand."

State affairs? As soon as Wu Shi heard these two words, he immediately stopped talking.

Diancui was prompted by his father, and his heart immediately understood that although the saint is not confused at the age of today, he is concentrating on Buddhist affairs, and invited a large number of holy monks from all over the country to enter Beijing to open an altar to teach Buddhism.

Now it is not popular, as long as another year or even half a year, Diancui has a memory, at that time all over the country will be a great rise in Buddhist houses, and even some children of the family are inspired by Buddhism, willing to become monks, of course, there are also some people who are thin and poor families in order to avoid military service to shave their own monks to exploit loopholes.
