Zhaoming Temple is located in the East Tianmu Mountain, and there is a Mida Village at the foot of the mountain.

Yu Tang, Ma Xiuniang, and Zhang Gongzi made an appointment to meet here, and then pretended to meet by chance and went to Zhaoming Temple together.

Ma Xiuniang and Zhang Gongzi arrived before Yu Tang.

Yu Tang got off the sedan chair and apologized repeatedly.

Ma Xiuniang brought the maid magpie, pursed her lips with a smile and pulled Yu Tang's arm, and said with a smile: "We are not much earlier than you." He asked Yu Tang again, "Have you had breakfast?" Have you ever brought snacks and tea? After speaking, he also glanced at the panting Ah Yuan.

To go to Zhaoming Temple, you have to climb half a mountain, and the road is still a little far. Everyone is either to have a pious heart because of the incense, or because the price of the sedan chair is too expensive, usually at the foot of the mountain sedan chair, all the way over.

Ah Wan hurriedly patted the burden behind him and said, "Miss Ma, don't worry, Mrs. Chen prepared it for us yesterday." He stepped forward again to salute Zhang Gongzi.

Zhang Gongzi nodded.

Yu Tang glanced at him curiously.

At the age of eighteen or nineteen, he was handsome and fair-skinned, tall and thin, and looked very gentle.

When the conditions at home are not very good, he can still be admitted to the children's school at this age, which shows that his diligence and qualifications are not bad.

Yu Tang likes smart people.

Zhang Gongzi brought a small guy and let Ma Xiuniang and Yu Tang walk in front.

Yu Tang turned on Ma Xiuniang and whispered: "Brother-in-law looks very good!" Uncle chose a good family for his sister. ”

Ma Xiuniang's face was red with shame, but she didn't even say a kind word.

It can be seen that he is very satisfied with this family business.

Yu Tang said, "What is the name of my brother-in-law?" ”

Ma Xiuniang said in a low voice: "The single name is a wisdom word, and the word has not been taken yet." ”

Zhang Hui?

I don't know when I was admitted in my previous life?

Yu Tang once again lamented that his heart was big in his previous life.

Maybe there are a lot of people walking, the mountain road leading to Zhaoming Temple is winding but very flat, and it is not a lecture or incense meeting, there are not many people who go to worship incense, and they are all elderly or middle-aged women, young girls like them, there is a young son far behind, it is very eye-catching. People who pass by them will look back at them twice.

Although she was wearing a hat, Ma Xiuniang was still ashamed, and whispered to Yu Tang: "We, let's make an appointment with Zhang Gongzi to meet somewhere, right?" ”

In this blue sky, Ma Xiuniang brought the maid, she brought the maid, Yu Tang thought about it, smiled and nodded.

Ma Xiuniang turned around and said a few words to the magpie, and the magpie covered her mouth and smiled and went to pass the word to Zhang Hui.

Zhang Hui glanced up at Ma Xiuniang a few times, and nodded reluctantly, which made Yu Tang laugh again.

Ma Xiuniang went to twist Yu Tang and said coquettishly: "We're not all here for you." If we want people to see something, we don't want to be human! ”

Yu Tang apologized again and again, and joked: "Sister, don't worry. When you leave the cabinet, I will embroider a pair of mandarin duck pillows for my sister to press the bottom of the box anyway. ”

"You damn girl, you still talk nonsense."

Ma Xiuniang and Yu Tang were talking and laughing, time passed quickly, and when the sun just rose, they arrived at Zhaoming Temple.

The two went to the Heavenly King's Palace.

Yu Tang took off his hat.

Ma Xiuniang exclaimed in a low voice: "Ah Tang, you are so beautiful today!" ”

Yu Tang wore a red Hangzhou silk embroidered folded branch flower gown today, a white silver striped collar narrow-sleeved shirt, a black green silk silk with a cloud mustache, and a small step with gilt silver inlaid pearls was inserted obliquely near the sideburns, which lined her skin like snow, her eyebrows were picturesque, fresh and beautiful.

She smiled slightly.

Li Jun said that she took a fancy to her appearance, and she wanted to see how much she liked her appearance to Li Jun.

Not only did she put on her face, but she also wrung her forehead and trimmed her eyebrows.

Dressed up in makeup.

Ma Xiuniang sighed: "You should usually dress up more." ”

Maybe because Chen is a beauty, although Yu Tang often hears people praise her for being beautiful, most of the people who praise her are relatives and friends at home or the elders of the neighbors next door, and she doesn't feel how beautiful she is when she looks in the mirror side by side with her mother, thinking that everyone is saying kind words. Later, she married into the Li family and was coveted by Li Duan, she realized that she might be more beautiful than many people, but she was already a widow at that time, and there were rules for dressing up, and the Lin family regarded her as a thorn in her side, and she had no intention of breaking customs, so she tried her best to dress herself up in a simple and low-key way on weekdays.

After being reborn, some habits have not been changed for a while, no wonder Ma Xiuniang will be amazed a little.

The two saluted the incense and rested in the room where the pilgrims were entertained, and Ah Tao went to inquire where Li Jun was.

Ma Xiuniang stared at Yu Tang's face again and sighed: "Don't say it, the more I look at you, the more beautiful I feel, especially the expression of my speech and the demeanor of looking at me, it seems that it is very different from before." But I think you've just changed your clothes and put on some jewelry! Could it be that I had too little contact with you in the past? ”

may be because some of the experiences in her previous life are engraved in her bones, and now she is more assertive and courageous than she was in her previous life.

Yu Tang smiled: "You are a lover's eyes." I don't know if it's the same for my brother-in-law? ”

"You scoundrel, I'll help you, you actually laugh at me!"

The two made a fuss again.

After a long time, Ma Xiuniang and Yu Tang collapsed on the Luohan couch respectively.

She said: "I think, just by the way you are, only you disagree with others, and no one else disagrees with you." If you think that the second young master of the Li family is still eye-catching, will you agree to this family business? ”

Ma Xiuniang has never seen Li Jun with her own eyes, and she doesn't know what Li Jun looks like.

No!

Yu Tang almost blurted out.

She thought about it and thought that if she denied Li Jun in this situation, it would definitely be very strange, so she said: "Marrying someone is not just marrying him, but marrying their family." ”

"That's true." Ma Xiuniang thought for a while and said, "If I had a mother-in-law like Mrs. Li, I would have to be annoyed to death." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Ma Xiuniang finally stopped persuading her.

Yu Tang asked about Ma Xiuniang's marriage.

Ma Xiuniang told her that she and Zhang Gongzi would get married in the second half of the year, saying that Zhang Gongzi's family lacked someone to preside over the feed, and wanted her to pass the door early: "My mother is also a cheerful character, and I think that if I don't agree, I don't agree. After speaking, she quietly told her, "My mother said in front of people outside that our two families have already discussed marriage, but we are still young and have not mentioned it seriously, so as not to say that we have a kiss on the front foot, and a kiss on the back foot. ”

"I know, I know!" Yu Tang was a little envious of Ma Xiuniang's smooth marriage.

I don't know who she'll marry?

Recruiting a son-in-law is easy to say, but it is difficult to recruit a person with good conduct and intelligence.

Yu Tang sighed faintly in his heart.

Ah Tao came back to report to her: "The second young master of the Li family wore a bamboo blue Hangzhou silk robe, a white jade bamboo hairpin, a white belt, and a pair of purses, a water green, sachet-like; A lake green, wishy-washy. Drink tea with a few classmates at Wudaosong. ”

Wudao pine is next to the Tibetan scripture pavilion in the east of Zhaoming Temple, it is an ancient pine, its cover is like an umbrella, can shade several zhang. Many scholars in Lin'an like to go there to hold poetry meetings, drink tea and play chess, and the monks in the temple set up stone tables, stone benches, bamboo mats and wooden couches under the trees for those scholars to play.

Yu Tang said: "How far is it from the washing pen spring that we agreed with Zhang Gongzi?" ”

Xibi Spring is another interesting place in Zhaoming Temple. It is in a cliff in the back mountain of Zhaoming Temple, there is a small spring flowing out from the belly of the mountain, the spring water is clear and sweet, it is said that the spring water can clear the eyes and cleanse the mind, read smartly, many people in Lin'an City have added children, especially boys, will come here to catch a pot of water for the child to drink, so that the child can drink can be smart and clever. Even some people who have a headache and brain fever come here to get a pot of water and drink it back. Not to mention the people who come to Zhaoming Temple to worship incense, they must come here to drink a sip of mountain spring water.

Ah Tao said smartly: "I have already gone to see, we go out from here to the west, to the Wudao Song to turn north, there is a gate to the back mountain of Zhaoming Temple." Out of the door and further to the east, there is a road leading to the pen washing spring. ”

In other words, they have to go around the Enlightenment Song.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a gate leading to the back mountain of Zhaoming Temple, and it was discovered, would they say that they were lost?

Ma Xiuniang covered her face.

Where to meet Zhang Gongzi is determined by her.

Yu Tang couldn't straighten up with a smile and urged her: "Let's go quickly, be careful of what changes have occurred when we go late." ”

Ma Xiuniang couldn't care about being ashamed, and hurriedly said: "Then let's go quickly!" ”

Yu Tang straightened his sideburns, put on his hat again, and went to Wudaosong with Ma Xiuniang.

There are seven or eight mats under the Wudao Panasonic, several young students sit cross-legged and talk, and more than a dozen small servants are beside them, or fanning, or burning incense, or boiling tea...... There are also people who watch the excitement in twos and threes.

It seems that all the pilgrims of Zhaoming Temple have gathered here.

Ma Xiuniang said nervously: "What should I do?" Even if we walked past like this, they wouldn't notice us! ”

Yu Tang sneered.

Didn't Lin say that Li Jun took a fancy to her?

Then he must know himself and have a deep impression.

Ma Xiuniang said vigilantly: "What are you going to do?" ”

According to what they thought before, as long as they walked over and attracted Li Jun's attention.

Yu Tang said: "Sister, you stay here, I'll just pretend to see the excitement and take a look." ”

Ma Xiuniang hesitated: "Isn't this okay?" ”

Yu Tang knew that this was risky, so he couldn't pull Ma Xiuniang in.

She smiled: "It's okay, you listen to me, there will be no mistake." After speaking, without waiting for Ma Xiuniang to react, she confessed to the magpie, "You are optimistic about your eldest lady", raised her feet and walked towards Wudaosong.

Ma Xiuniang wanted to call Yu Tang back, but she didn't expect Yu Tang to walk like a fly, and soon walked out of the ground, she looked at the people around her, and had to swallow the call.

Although Yu Tang is not tall, he has a thin waist and long legs, light steps, and a graceful demeanor.

The noise of Matsushita gradually became smaller.
