Chapter 142: Shimizu-an (1)
Sheng Rujin smiled.
Isn't this unusual?
The eldest lady Zhou didn't want her to go to the Mingde Women's Club at all. This was true in previous lives, and it is also true in this life. If he hadn't met Mr. Borong and asked her to accept him as a disciple, he even invited Empress Chen's edict in the end.
Wait a minute!
Wait, wait......
Sheng Rujin squinted at Sheng Rulan in front of him and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Sheng Rulan only felt that Sheng Rujin's eyes in front of her were like knives, stabbing her for a while. She lowered her eyes, avoiding the sharp edge in Sheng Rujin's eyes.
"That...... I ......"
……
Late at night, Sheng Rujin sent Sheng Rulan away, but she tossed and turned in bed. What Sheng Rulan said was a bit unexpected for her.
She thought that the eldest lady Zhou had died down because of the revelation of Lingniang's incident, and there was no way to fight back, but she didn't expect that it would provoke her stronger reaction.
However, is what Sheng Rulan said true?
Is it true that a man who can betray his own mother is true?
That's it, don't care, let's go and see. She has come over with swords and swords in her previous life, and she is still afraid of a woman in a deep house?
Sheng Rujin relaxed his heart and slowly sank into sleep.
……
On the second day, Sheng Rujin had a headache and went to a private school to attend classes, and Sheng Rulan was obviously much closer to her. Sheng Rujin's face was only faint, but he couldn't see his alienation from Sheng Rulan.
Sheng Ruyue and Sheng Ruyuan were still children, so naturally they didn't think too much. Sheng Rulan's closeness to them only felt a little strange, but they didn't think about it deeply.
However, Sheng Rujin found that Bai Yuru had been looking at Sheng Rulan, and seemed to be very interested in studying the division and integration of the Sheng family sisters.
Sheng Rujin looked at Bai Yuru's expression and knew that this person was not simple, so he was a little more vigilant in his heart.
To be honest, she has always been unusually wary of Bai Yuru, although this person was only arrogant at first, and he was not as brainless as the Cai sisters.
But as the saying goes, a dog that barks doesn't bite.
In other words, it is possible for a quiet person to suddenly stab in the back.
Of course, these are just thoughts in Sheng Rujin's heart, and they are not put on the surface.
In the private school, with the enrollment decree of the Mingde Women's Club a few days ago, it is obvious that there is a little more enthusiasm for learning.
In every class, the girls' school was full of books, and there were things that they didn't understand in their homework, and they all surrounded the master and kept asking questions. Qu Fuzi was naturally very happy, and the daily lectures became more and more exciting, and the number of children who stayed behind after class to beat his palms was greatly reduced.
Sheng Rujin now only needs to consolidate the basic Four Books and Five Classics and review them again. Another is to keep practicing words, after all, a good hand of words will also get a lot of extra impressions.
The days passed slowly, and five days passed. On this day, the private school was closed.
Sheng Rujin got up early in the morning to freshen up, and then with the fifth aunt Wang and Sheng Rulan, he took a group of grandmothers and servants out of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion.
She was in a carriage with Sheng Rulan. The fifth aunt, Wang, is alone.
The fifth aunt Wang is now more than two months pregnant, and it is when she is delicate and weak, and it is difficult to get out of the door to be very delicate. Jindun cloaks, tea and snacks, incense and mosquito prevention, change of clothes, etc., all kinds of boxes and cages are enough to bring a car. The people in the left prime minister's mansion looked sideways.
Sheng Rujin but calm as usual. If the fifth aunt Wang didn't do this, it wouldn't be her.
That's it, she will definitely give birth to Sheng Shubi, the second son of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion. It's just that I don't know what the eldest lady Zhou will do when the time comes.
The group rode slowly towards Kiyomizu-an.
Speaking of Shimizu-an, everyone in the capital knows it. It is a nunnery built in the suburbs of Beijing with very beautiful scenery.
The magic of it is that it is close to the capital, and it is located in the col southwest of Yunshan. The mountain col is surrounded by high mountains that isolate the northwest wind, and the four seasons are like spring.
There is also a pool of water at the foot of the mountain, and in spring there are many birds on the lake, so it is a great viewing point from Kiyomizu-an. Many dignitaries and nobles in the capital will go to the mountains to worship the Buddha in spring and autumn, and live in purity for a few days.
Therefore, the incense offering of Kiyomizu-an has always been very prosperous. The eldest lady, Zhou, donated sesame oil money in the Qingshui Nunnery all the year round, so that the bhikshunis could recite sutras and accumulate blessings.
In the spring and autumn of each year, she will also go into the mountain to worship the Buddha and stay for a few days.
Calculate that this spring, the eldest lady Zhou has not yet gone to worship the Buddha. She asked the fifth aunt to go with Sheng Rujin and Sheng Rulan, and she probably thought about her wishes.
The group walked until late afternoon before reaching the foot of Kiyomizu-an. The road is rugged because it is a mountain road.
When he arrived at the place, Sheng Rujin couldn't wait to come down and move his hands and feet. The fifth aunt, Wang, also came down.
But as soon as she came, she complained and complained.
"My mother. It's been walking for so long that it can almost knock my waist upside down. I knew I wouldn't come, I was really tired. ”
When the fifth aunt Wang heard this, an elderly grandmother Chen immediately said, "My good aunt, how can you say such a thing when you have arrived at the foot of this Buddha Gate Mountain?" Hurry up and apologize to the Buddha! ”
When the fifth aunt Wang heard this, she pursed her lips disdainfully: "Is what I said wrong?" I can stand this bump all day, and the child in my belly can't stand it. ”
She said and grumbled. When she heard that she had to walk up a thousand steps to get to the front of the nunnery, the fifth aunt's face turned green.
"I'm not leaving! I'm not leaving! ”
The fifth aunt, Wang, lost her temper, "Let me go, it's better to kill me." Is this here to worship the Buddha or to torture people? I knew I wasn't happy! What prayers, what worship of the Buddha, are all excuses! ”
Sheng Rujin heard the noise here and walked over slowly. Mama Chen had to whisper to her.
Sheng Rujin looked at the furious fifth aunt Wang and smiled: "That's it, it's normal for the fifth aunt to be pregnant and can't walk." Find a few palanquins, give some money, and take turns to carry her up the mountain. ”
"Since you're here, you can't just go back, right? The fifth aunt still endures. ”
The last sentence Sheng Rujin said to the fifth aunt Wang.
After the fifth aunt Wang lost her temper, she also felt that there was nothing she could do now, so she could only agree.
Sheng Rujin first asked the slave to take Sheng Rulan up the mountain, and he stayed at the foot of the mountain to accompany the fifth aunt Wang and other sedan chair men.
Qinglan said angrily: "What is it?" When she arrived at the foot of the mountain gate, she began to lose her temper, and she was not afraid of the Buddha's blame, so that she didn't have good fruit to eat. ”
Cui Ying said: "The eldest lady's heart is too good. What does the eldest lady do with her?! We're self-propelled and self-defeating. ”
Sheng Rujin said: "What are you talking about with her?" She is naturally squeamish. ”
Cui Ying suddenly squatted down: "Is the eldest lady tired?" Cuiying carries you up the mountain. ”
Sheng Rujin was moved in his heart, but he pretended to be displeased on his face: "Okay." When Miss Ben is a paper paste? These 1,000 steps are designed to show the sincerity of the prayer. If you carry me up the mountain, won't my painstaking efforts to the Buddha be in vain? ”
Cui Ying was stunned: "There is still such a statement? Cui Ying really doesn't know. Miss, don't blame, Cui Ying won't carry you anymore. ”
Sheng Rujin smiled.
The sedan chair driver came, carried a bamboo sedan chair, eight sedan chair drivers, four people at a time, and then rotated after a while, for fear of falling the "nobleman".
The fifth aunt Wang saw it, so she twisted it into the sedan chair.
