Chapter 191: Building Roads
A long time ago, Yu Tang understood a truth, when difficulties come, the more you avoid it, the easier it is to be dragged into the quagmire by it and unable to get out.
She closed her eyes, immediately took a deep breath, then opened her eyes, curled the corners of her mouth, turned around with a smile, and blessed Pei Yanfu: "Third master, what a coincidence!" I didn't expect to meet you here. This early in the morning, you are ......"
Pei Yan looked at her with a smile in his eyes, sparkling, something flickered in it, making people a little unable to take their eyes off it at a glance.
He said, "Didn't you say that there was going to be a road to be built here?" I thought that there was nothing to do these days, and it was better to build the road as soon as possible. β
Pei Yan's voice was soft, like a spring breeze, which surprised Yu Tang and felt strange.
She couldn't help but look at Pei Yan carefully.
is still a seemingly simple but extravagant dress, or a cold and serious face, or a jade tree like the wind, how could she feel that Pei Yan is very different from usual?
Yu Tang smiled embarrassedly, forced the embarrassment of the last meeting in his heart, and greeted Pei Yan casually: "Really? I didn't expect the third master to come so quickly. It's not too early, I still have to go to greet Yi Lao'an and the second wife, so I won't accompany you. If you have any instructions, just let Ah Ming tell me. β
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the courtyard where the second wife and Yi Lao'an lived.
Who knew that Pei Yan was following behind her.
What is he doing here?
Yu Tang was a little uneasy in his heart, but Pei Yan took three steps and two steps, and suddenly walked side by side with her, and asked her: "I saw a few nieces just now, it seems that there are still your maids inside, why didn't you go with them?" β
The villain in Yu Tang's heart couldn't help but roll his eyes, but with a smile on his face, he said, "Just now...... Just now I saw a praying mantis perched on a big tree, and I was fascinated for a moment, so I looked at it a few more times, and when I came back to my senses, they were already far away......"
"Oh!" Pei Yan nodded solemnly and said, "No wonder you almost chased the wrong place just now." Good thing I reminded you. However, you have to change this problem, why do you say the wrong thing in a hurry, and you go the wrong way. Fortunately, this is in Ku'an Temple, a place with a big palm, if this is in Zhaoming Temple, you can't get lost! Speaking of Zhaoming Temple, I have something I want to tell you, the eighth day of the fourth month of the Buddha bathing festival, Zhaoming Temple is ready to invite the monks of the South Shaolin Temple in Fujian to come to the scriptures, I see your memory, or don't go! β
Is the senior monk over there in the South Shaolin Temple going to come and preach the scriptures?
Yu Tang was surprised.
Pei Yan said disappreciatively: "This incident was facilitated by my mother. At that time, maybe someone from the Song family, the Shen family, and the Gu family will come. β
He is a man who never lets go of the arrow.
He told her what it meant.
Yu Tang pondered in his heart.
Her gaze couldn't help but show a little dazed.
Pei Yan looked at it and sighed in his heart.
Sometimes this little girl is very clever and funny, but sometimes she is very silly, and she can only understand it until he makes it clear. However, she is so beautiful that she can still catch her eye even when she is stupid.
He had no choice but to say: "When the time comes, I am going to ask Ku'an Temple to make a more special incense, for example, a plate of incense the size of a foot basin, or a thread incense with a thick arm, maybe it can make the incense made by Ku'an Temple famous in one fell swoop." β
Yu Tang's eyes lit up.
She felt that she should also talk to Yu Yuan, and let the Yu family shop also make a red lacquer merit box similar to the pattern of five hundred arhats to present to Zhaoming Temple, which would definitely make the Yu family's lacquerware shine. I just don't know if there is such a pattern in the shop? If not, who will draw it?
And time waits for no one, the Buddha Bathing Festival is coming soon, and you have to plan for this in advance.
Thinking about things in his head, Yu Tang couldn't help but speak half a beat slower.
She said a little casually: "What the third master said makes sense. I also told the second wife yesterday that it is best to separate the steps of making incense, and learn a little by one, and you should be able to make Buddha incense before the eighth day of the fourth month. You are in a hurry to build a road for Ku'an Temple, and Ku'an Temple will definitely be very strong in the future. β
However, after the incense is vigorous, there are more worldly things, and I wonder if the Kuan Temple will continue to take in those homeless women and children in the future?
Because of her relationship, Kuan Temple is very different from her previous life.
I don't know if this change is good or bad for Ku'an Temple.
Yu Tang was a little at a loss.
Pei Yan looked a little confused.
He watched the little girls behave too childishly, as if they were joking, thinking about his mother's temperament, and the matter might end up on his head. He didn't want to clean up the mess for them, thinking that it would be better to block it than to loosen it, so he simply took over in advance and put this matter on the right track, and he could leave it alone in the future. That's what pointed out Yu Tang. Yu Tang was good, not only did he not understand, but he also showed a very emotional look.
What the hell was she thinking?
Pei Yan thought for a moment and said, "What?" Can't you make the incense I said in the Kuan Temple? β
The footbasin-sized incense sticks and the arm-thick incense sticks are very skillful, and some incense-making shops have been open for decades and can't do well.
Yu Tang only thought about his own shop and forgot about this stubble.
She hurriedly said: "The second and third young ladies are in charge of this matter, I have to ask them." β
Pei Yan nodded.
Yu Tang thought about it and told Pei Yan what he said to the second wife last night.
She thought that if Pei Yan also felt that this was not a big deal, she would leave it alone. In her previous life, she didn't have these messy ideas, although the people of Ku'an Temple were hard, they could also be warm and not worried, maybe such a Ku'an Temple could maintain its original heart and original intention, and continue to take in those poor women, which may not be a good thing.
Pei Yan listened but his steps were sluggish, he thought for a while, and said, "I know what you said." Don't worry about it yet, I have my own opinions. β
Yu Tang's whole person relaxed.
It was indeed right to hand it over to Pei Yan.
It seems that he also felt that this was inappropriate.
It's up to him to reconcile everyone's thoughts.
The two talked, and soon arrived at the place where Yi Lao'an and the second wife lived.
A little maid saw Pei Yan from a distance, and hurriedly went to report, and Yi Lao'an, who got the letter, actually led the second wife and several young ladies of the Pei family to greet him in person.
"When did Yaoguang come over? I don't have to send someone to talk to me. Yi Lao'an looked at Pei Yan, his eyes full of kindness, "Come and sit in the house!" Although spring has already begun, the weather is still quite cold. β
As she spoke, she enthusiastically led Pei Yan into the door.
Everyone saluted, and Pei Yan politely greeted Yi Lao'an and the second wife, and said his intention.
Yi Lao'an and the second wife were obviously surprised by his arrival, thanked him repeatedly, and talked about making incense.
Everyone looked worried.
Obviously, he was not sure that he could make incense that could be sent to Zhaoming Temple in a short period of time according to Pei Yan's requirements.
Pei Yan said: "Then you will first give the incense recipe to the big shopkeeper of the incense powder shop at home." Let the temple send someone to follow the master in the incense powder shop to learn first, if someone comes to Ku'an Temple to order incense, they can take it out. β
Isn't this cheating?
Several young ladies of the Pei family looked at each other, but they didn't dare to ask.
Yi Laoan (person) wanted to speak several times and stopped.
Yu Tang was jealous.
If only they had someone in the family to help them out like that.
Pei Yan sat for a while and left, but when he left, he called Yu Tang to send him, but when Yu Tang sent him to the door, he said casually: "I heard that Miss Gu is good at making incense, presumably she will also go to Zhaoming Temple on the day of the Buddha Bathing Festival, but I don't know if she will give incense to Zhaoming Temple as I thought." β
It turns out that the big pit is waiting for her here!
Yu Tang glanced at Pei Yan.
Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and walked away.
The villain in Yu Tang's heart was so angry that he jumped to his feet.
What does he mean by that?
Let her fight Gu Xi?
What's so combative about this.
Why is Pei Yan so naΓ―ve.
In fact, as long as Gu Xi did not harm her interests, she would not target Gu Xi at all.
Yu Tang pouted at Pei Yan's back, and then his expression froze on his face as if he remembered something.
That's right, Pei Yan is not a person who talks nonsense, so, what does Pei Yan mean by saying this to her?!
Yu Tang couldn't swallow it for the next time, if it weren't for Shuangtao running to tell her that she didn't find the person she said in the temple, she would have forgotten that she didn't give up, and wanted to find the so-called cousin of the eldest aunt in the temple.
As for the matter of the incense party, Yi Lao'an did think more than the second wife, but she did not oppose or approve, but said to Yu Tang with a smile: "Then I will go back and discuss with my sister-in-law, I don't care much about housework, and I don't know if it should be or not." But this incense recipe was given by Miss Yu, and there must be a reason why Miss Yu thought about it this way. β
Something made Yu Tang feel better.
When she returned home, she immediately went to see Yu Yuan and told him about the Buddha Bathing Festival on the eighth day of April.
Yu Yuan's brows furrowed tightly, and he said, "It's definitely too late to make it now." There was a lot of rain this spring, and the paint at home dried too slowly. But I don't want to lose such a great opportunity. In this way, you go home first and wait, and I'll go talk to Daddy and see if I can think of a way. And then there is the Zhaoming Temple, since there are senior monks preaching this year, there will definitely be people who donate a large amount of sesame oil money, and they will definitely be ready to donate the ceremony, if we can take this ceremony, we will give them a merit box, if they can't take it, just donate some silver. After all, it's about doing good. β
Yu Tang also thought so, and the brother and sister said some details again, and then they dispersed.
But Yu Tang always felt as if something was going to happen, and he couldn't think of what he was negligent about.
Fortunately, the merit box given to Zhaoming Temple was solved - the last time the water was walked, the things in the shop were burned, and Yu Bo found a cage with 800 Arhat patterns from the storehouse at home, and they decided to change it on the basis of this cage and change it into a merit box. Moreover, Zhaoming Temple also agreed to let their family send a merit box at the donation ceremony.
In this way, the lacquerware of the Yu family can also take the opportunity to let more people know.
But Yu Tang still couldn't fall asleep.
What does Pei Yan mean?
Will Gu Xi come to the Buddha Bathing Festival at Zhaoming Temple? She is a person who never does useless work, if she comes to participate in the Buddha Bathing Festival, is it just to give an incense or something?
Yu Tang was a little annoyed with Pei Yan's gods.
