It wasn't until the end of the day that the dinner party in Yifu officially began. In the flickering main hall, men and women sit separately, separated by a landscape screen. In fact, the customs of the Rite Dynasty are similar to those of ancient China; In the Rite Dynasty, guests need to deliver a prayer post if they want to visit, and the host can only be fully prepared after receiving the worship post; If the host wants to invite guests to his home, he will also send an invitation to the guest first, and on the day of the banquet, he will also send another invitation, please be sure to come. Obviously, Yi Fu's banquet at this time was not so exquisite, so he didn't start eating at this time in a hurry, if it was usually at this point, Yi Xiangxiang would even finish the food consumption step. However, the Yi Mansion was staggered at this time, the guests and hosts were happy, and they didn't mind each other's so-called rudeness.

Yi Xiangxiang can't care so much, the father's happy laughter at the men's table shows his good mood, even his grandfather accompanies him, Yi Xiangxiang knows that this visit must have a great friendship with his father, and even in the welcome list of the arrogant grandfather. But at this time, Yi Xiangxiang was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, and she couldn't wait to eat all the plates on the table, so she naturally didn't bother to pay attention to those enthusiastic laughter.

Yi Xiangxiang "gobbled" the food on the table into her stomach, her eating appearance was not ugly, but compared to other people at the same table, it was a little indecent. But she doesn't care, the word of being young is her umbrella at this time, not to mention that she is hungry now, even when she is not hungry, she sees delicious food, and her eyes are also golden.

"Xiangxiang's appetite is really good, eh, slow down, don't choke!" Yi Xiangxiang was immersed in hard work, and when she heard her name, she looked up at the woman opposite.

I saw that the woman was wearing a green emerald cigarette shirt, her hair was neatly bunned, she trimmed her eyebrows and nose, looked at her eyes with clear eyes, and when she laughed, the pear vortex was deep, well, a beautiful woman, the identification was completed.

"This girl has been greedy since she was a child, and when I was a child, I was really afraid that she would hold the stone and gnaw it, and it would be difficult to raise! If you want me to say that it is still good, dignified and beautiful, gentle and moving. Mrs. Yi Lin Shihan poked her daughter's forehead with a smile, looking like she hated iron but not steel! But the words were all doting, and her familiarity with the beautiful woman was undoubtedly revealed, and she looked at a woman in a pink dress on the seat, and said in admiration.

"Thank you, Aunt Han, I'm a shameless person, so I received this compliment!" The girl in pink laughed skillfully, causing laughter inside and outside the screen.

Yi Xiangxiang didn't want to pick up the stubble, to put it bluntly, she was just lazy to please, and continued to bury her head in eating. Tonight's banquet is served with some good dishes, although there is no shortage of food at home, but not everything is served on the table. My father's income is not high, after all, he is a petty official, but his mother is capable, and after arriving in Centennial County, he received a few small shops with the help of his grandfather, and the business is also the first to do. But the Yi family is not a pleasure-seeker, and the mother is also thrifty, so this meal is almost a little more abundant than the New Year's Festival.

Thinking of business, Yi Xiangxiang also moved her mind, in modern times, she wanted to open a small shop or something, in ancient times, isn't her hero more useful? But this matter still needs to be well planned. Yi Xiangxiang pressed her mind for the time being.

In the middle of the staggering, Yi Xihu asked his subordinates to remove the screen, which was originally unnecessary, but Mrs. Yi was afraid of the sudden female dependents, so she asked the subordinates to set up the screen. She also knows the friendship between her master and the Zhu family, and she has no opinion on withdrawing at this time.

Today, the Zhu family who hosted a banquet in Yifu is not big, but it is not small for Yifu; The surname Zhu, the first instinct for Yi Xiangxiang is that he is rich, there is indeed nothing wrong, the Zhu family is indeed a rich businessman, but their business is to deal with the royal family of the Li Dynasty, from another direction, there is not much difference from the imperial merchants. In ancient times, those who could get involved with the royal family were more or less honorable. The current ruler of the Zhu family is Zhu Yulin, and his wife Hu is a daughter of the Hu family in Tongzhou, and has two sons and one daughter. This time, Zhu Yulin accompanied his wife home to Tongzhou, and then came to visit Yixi Lake, the magistrate of Tongzhou's century-old county. Zhu Yulin and Yi Xihu got acquainted because of a spice purchase in the early years, in the words of Lin (Mrs. Yi Lin Shihan), it was even more fiery than love at first sight.

Hot-blooded young people are like this, Yi Xiangxiang wants to go to school before, when non-mainstream fried chicken heads were popular, there were more scenes of gangs and factions; Ahem, it seems that I accidentally damaged my father.

"Brother Xihu has lived a prosperous life in this hundred-year-old county, have you forgotten the big brother in Kyoto?" Zhu Yulin saluted Yi Xihu with a wine glass, and his movements were smooth, but the tone of his speech was like a copycat big brother.

"Brother Yulin is laughing, my little magistrate, where can I say that the wind and water are prosperous, and the gangster is a day!" Yi Xihu didn't mind being ridiculed, smiled and clinked glasses with Zhu Yulin, and drank it all.

"Don't worry, with your talents, it's inevitable to show your ambitions!" Zhu Yulin knew that his old friend didn't mind a few official residences, and only wanted to benefit the people, but he still said what he thought in his heart.

"No hindrance, big brother Yulin has to stay in the hundred-year-old county for a while, so that I can see the scenery of this century-old with the West Lake!" Yi Xihu spoke.

"That's natural, and we haven't had a few drinks in a long time!" Zhu Yulin is not polite, in this Vanity Fair, it is rare to make friends with similar interests, and naturally it is necessary to "talk to each other" happily.

In this way, Yi Xiangxiang's small courtyard had an extra companion Zhu Qianqian, and Zhu Yulin's two twin sons, Zhu Yuanshi and Zhu Yuanpu, were arranged to live in Yi Luochuan's small courtyard. Yi Luochuan is no big deal, he and the two brothers of the Zhu family have known each other since they were young, although they were young at that time, they still have memories of the partners they have played, and they have the same interests and hobbies, so they became familiar with each other at once. Pity Yi Xiangxiang, playing a child itself made her very aggrieved, and now she has to face Zhu Qianqian's various enthusiasm, which is simply an Oscar-level test!

In fact, Zhu Qianqian, a little girl, is still good, the children of rich families are easy to grow crooked, but she looks very good or even worse. Needless to say, with her beautiful face, with her mother, the daughter of the Hu family in Tongzhou is famous for her good-looking, charming and bright, Zhu Qianqian's point is very in line with the temperament of the Hu family, and this is just one of her shining points, the point is that she is also exquisite, and she is loved by everyone up and down in Yifu.

It's a great one. This is Yi Xiangxiang's summary evaluation of Zhu Qianqian. She still likes people like Zhu Qianqian's character, but she can't stand it if she is too enthusiastic, so she doesn't have a lot of enthusiasm to receive Yi Xiangxiang. And in her previous life, she was half a widow, and she has never been very good at interpersonal relationships, so she feels comfortable walking at her own pace. And the name Zhu Qianqian really makes people play.

Although Zhu Qianqian didn't feel Yi Xiangxiang's warmth, she also didn't realize that she was alienated. Perhaps because it is a four-year-old child, most people are deceived by their intuitive movements, as long as they do not show aggression, they are not repulsive.

Yi Xiangxiang really didn't deliberately do anything, she just routinely did her own thing, anyway, Zhu Qianqian was a guest, and her mother would arrange for someone to entertain her properly, so she didn't need to make any effort. So Zhu Qianqian just thinks that this little girl is playful, loves butterflies and doesn't like embroidery, she always naps during class, but she is full of energy after class. is also very greedy, and can always research novel ideas for the kitchen to make delicious snacks, and then was stopped by Mrs. Yi fiercely. Every time Yi Xiangxiang eats something, as long as Mrs. Yi finds out, she will be taken away by Mrs. Yi who rushed over, and the mode of getting along once surprised Zhu Qianqian.

During this period, Yi Xihu took Zhu Yulin to visit several villages and towns, inspecting the people's conditions and enjoying the beautiful scenery.

The wind is beautiful, the sky is cloudless, and the weather is sunny again, but for Yi Xiangxiang, it is another day that is difficult to get up!

Yi Xiangxiang was dug up from the bed like a radish by Miaoqin this morning, her eyes were closed when she washed her face, if Miaoqin hadn't dragged her, she might have been planted in the basin. Today is the first day of the new year, and Mrs. Zhu Hu and Mrs. Yi Lin discussed two days ago that they would go to the Centennial Temple to worship the Bodhisattva today, so Miaoqin got her own young lady early. In fact, since last month, his wife has strictly forbidden the young lady to sleep until three strokes in the sun, but the young lady is always relieutic; I'm going to the temple to worship today, and it's not good to miss the hour, so Miaoqin has to make a lot of effort to get her own young lady up.

Washing and dressing, Le Qi combed Yi Xiangxiang with two small buns, which were very cute. Yi Xiangxiang doesn't like to comb her hair on weekdays, although she has good chess skills, she always feels a pain in her scalp. However, when she wants to go out, it is always bad to have a shawl, and her hair flying around also affects her enjoyment of the scenery, so every time she goes out, she combs two buns, which is convenient and cool.

After cleaning up, I had a simple breakfast, and when I came to the door with Zhu Qianqian, who yawned with Le Qi, the Lin family was already waiting at the door. Fortunately, the Hu family has not yet arrived, otherwise her mother would definitely be nagging for her. But soon Hu appeared with the maid, and the group got into the carriage.

Of course, Yi Xiangxiang and Zhu Qianqian must be riding together, and Yi Xiangxiang's little arms and legs are unstable, so they can only be held by Le Qi. Along the way, Zhu Qianqian opened the curtain to watch the scenery on the road, and chatted warmly with Yi Xiangxiang.

"Xiangxiang, look at that tree, how strange it looks!" Zhu Qianqian is still a child after all, even if she is exquisite, she is still childish when she is with a child.

"Like an old man on crutches." Yi Xiangxiang squinted her eyes and pretended to sleep, the carriage was really not a good means of transportation, which made her sleepy for a while.

"Wow, it's like oh, it's amazing! How do you know? You didn't even look at it! Zhu Qianqian looked at Yi Xiangxiang in surprise, who had been squinting.

"The old lady is happy to give birth to the Buddha, and the lady of this road often comes and goes!" Le Qi explained to Zhu Qianqian, and the latter understood.

Indeed, the Centennial Temple is no stranger, and in the past two years, the Centennial Temple has also been regarded as one of the big Buddha temples in Tongzhou. There are several bends in the road leading to the Centennial Temple, there are several trees, and even which trees have bird's nests under them, Yi Xiangxiang is very clear. There was even a time when she was parking and resting, and she poked a bird's nest with the maid and was found by her grandmother, and when she returned home, she was taught a lesson.

It is said that the strange spirit of this century-old temple is well-known in Tongzhou, and many dignitaries and nobles come to worship. Yi Xiangxiang disagreed, thinking that this was just an advertising gimmick and a necessary publicity for the development of tourism! But Mrs. Yi, who loves the Buddha, doesn't think so, so even if it is a beloved granddaughter, it is a lesson. But it's also evil, she stabbed the bird's nest that grew on the Buddha Gate Road, and she got sick that night, and Lang Zhong couldn't cure it. As a last resort, Mrs. Yi dragged her son to the temple to ask for a talisman, came back and fed and drank, and it was fine the next day. Since then, Yi Xihu began to believe a little bit in the ghosts and gods chattering about the gods, and every day his wife Lin also worshiped twice when she burned incense in front of the statue, and Yi Xiangxiang no longer dared to poke the bird's nest.

In fact, Yi Xiangxiang doesn't believe in evil very much, even when her soul passes through, she feels that her spiritual consciousness has detached from the original space. However, the coincidence of that talisman and her own illness, coupled with that absurd past life, also made her have reverence for these strange things.

Climb the long staircase to enter the temple, the centennial temple is not magnificent but the incense is vigorous, and the temple is very lively. The two ladies burned incense and prayed, and brought their respective daughters to worship sincerely; After that, the two ladies wanted to ask for a signature, Zhu Qianqian was very interested in following along, but Yi Xiangxiang didn't want to go, so she flattered the Lin family.

"Okay, don't shake, go play by yourself, pay attention to safety, don't go too far!" Lin and Yi Xiangxiang said this, but they were actually telling Le Qi to be optimistic about Miss; After Yi Xiangxiang got the permission of the Lin family, she pulled the music chess and ran to the back mountain.

Zhao Zixiu saw a cloud of yellow in front of him dragging a girl in blue whistling past him, and the girl in blue seemed to be holding something black in her hand, and before he could see it clearly, he saw them disappear around the corner. caused him to want to find out with the past, but fortunately, the guard Pang Qi beside him spoke out, and he remembered the purpose of going to the Centennial Temple today.

Yi Xiangxiang pulled Le Qi to the mountain well behind the temple, and let Le Qi start to fill the water bag with well water! Le Qi was afraid that Yi Xiangxiang would be too excited and fall into the well, so he asked her to stay away before filling the water. That's right, the black slimy thing that Zhao Zixiu didn't see clearly was the water bag! Although Yi Xiangxiang doesn't poke the bird's nest anymore, every time she comes to the Centennial Temple, she has to steal some well water to go home to make pastries, not because of any blessing, but because of the terrain, the water here is indeed sweeter, and the pastries made are also delicious.

The daughter of the county magistrate begged for water, which was originally not so complicated, but Yi Xiangxiang was afraid that Mrs. Yi would know about it, so she could only sneak it around. Yi Xiangxiang was most afraid of trouble, so every time she came to the Centennial Temple, she brought Leqi to get water, looking at Leqi's movements, she nodded with satisfaction, completely unaware that someone was approaching behind.

"The little donor is good Yaxing, but do you need the help of the old man?" A loud voice came from behind, provoking Yi Xiangxiang to be excited! When I turned around, I saw a monk in a robe standing there with kind eyebrows, quite like a fairy.

"Monk...... Mage...... The master is gracious! Yi Xiangxiang was a little embarrassed for a while, and immediately followed the monk's appearance with her hands folded; She still respects these pure hearts and few desires, and there are so many things to quit, it's really too difficult!

"Lao Qu Jingchen is the abbot of this century-old temple!" Jingchen looked at the little girl in front of him, being watched by her bright eyes, and actually felt very quiet. This woman is destined for herself, this is the conclusion of the abbot of Jingchen after seeing Yi Xiangxiang.

"Oh, you're the one who burned the talisman for me!" After Yi Xiangxiang recovered from her illness last time, Mrs. Yi took her to the Centennial Temple several times to find the abbot to thank her, but unfortunately he did not return from his travels, so she didn't see her benefactor until today.

Realizing that she was excited, Yi Xiangxiang made a remedy: "The little girl is the daughter of Yifu, thank the abbot for saving his life!" Saying that, he clenched his fists like a hero in the green forest, which provoked the black line on the face of Le Qi next to him.

"The little donor is polite, it's you and I who are destined." There is only one Yi Mansion in Centennial County, so after hearing Yi Xiangxiang's answer, the abbot of Jingchen also knew what she said about saving her life. Jingchen stepped towards the stone rock behind the spring, where there was a huge stone with a low table on which boiling water and a tea set were placed, and two futons were placed on the side.

Yi Xiangxiang saw these things when she came to fetch water, and she wanted to sit on them and enjoy the bubble tea. However, it is always a little weird for her small body to sit there and make tea, and it is not easy to make times in other people's territory, so she gave up. She secretly said in her heart that this abbot of Jingchen really knew how to enjoy it, but she didn't show it on her face, and said goodbye to Jingchen after greeting Le Qi after filling the water bag.

"The future of the little donor is hard to say, and the old man hereby reminds the little donor to remember to stick to his heart." Pure dust view of Yi Xiangxiang's face, although the facial features have not yet grown, but have seen the appearance of the clouds. Although he was surprised how a person with such a face could appear in this mountain village, since he had a fate with himself, he reminded him to fulfill this fate.

Unspeakably rich? Will I be able to make a fortune in business in the future? Yi Xiangxiang turned around and was about to ask the abbot for details, but the latter had already seen her question, so he spoke up before her: "The old man has broken through the sky, don't say more." ”

Yi Xiangxiang's face is full of black lines, or if you don't say that fortune telling is an existence that people love and hate, she always chats about the first half of the sentence and doesn't answer the second half! Thinking like this, she smiled thiefly, and then chewed the words with the abbot of Jingchen with a ruffian face.

"It's okay, it's okay, I know, the Buddha can't say it! Buddha is like this, what "according to the heart, according to the fate, casually", and what "there is nothing in the original, where to stir up dust", the great truth is always convincing. Thanks to the Master's guidance today, the little girl needs to join her family and retire. After speaking, he waved his sleeves that didn't exist like a little adult, and left with a somewhat surprised musician.

Hey, Miss, what you said was obviously that you pointed out others! Le Qi and Miaoqin are the maids who have followed Yi Xiangxiang for the longest time, Le Qi knows that although his master is not very old, he loves to play tricks, and he will be coquettish in front of his family, but in fact, Miss sometimes shows a calm and indifference to them that should not be at this age, Miss can say such a thing, she is a little surprised but not surprised. Le Qi turned his head to look at the abbot sitting on the futon, only to see that the abbot of Jingchen also had surprise on his face, and then he smiled and shook his head, and nodded again.

Le Qi retracted his gaze and followed his young lady away.
