Text Chapter 98: Sogo Temple 1
Why did Tao's mother give up Hou Ye Weibai and let her daughter become the aunt of the second master Weijie?
After thinking about all kinds of reasons in his heart, Wei Man asked Xia Landuo to inquire about some things that happened in the early years of the second room, and the two turned back to Manhui Garden.
It's April.
On the fifth day of the first month of April, the three-year filial piety period of the Zhenguo Houfu finally ended, after a grand removal ceremony, two days later, picked a sunny day, Mrs. Tai and the second lady Cao, with five sisters of the Wei family, and a group of maids and guards and guards, a group of people went to the Sogo Temple on the outskirts of Beijing to incense.
The road was very smooth, and it was almost lunchtime, and the frame of the Zhenguo Houfu finally arrived at the Sogo Temple.
Sogo Temple is a temple built on the Changji Mountain, which has been passed down to the present day and has a history of more than 600 years.
It is rumored that the Sogo Temple was just a small temple with no name in the former dynasty.
At the end of the Great Qi Dynasty, the Xiahou royal family was gradually weakened, and the princes fought among themselves...... Legend has it that a big reason is that the founding emperor of the Dajing Dynasty, Emperor Jianchu, befriended Master Zhiyuan of Sogo Temple by chance......
The age is long, and it is a royal secret, Master Zhiyuan and the general manager of the Jianchu Emperor of the year, naturally it is impossible to verify, however, since the establishment of the Dajing Dynasty, whether it is the founding Emperor Taizu Jianchu, or the later Daxing Emperor, and the Yanhe Emperor who has just died for a year, during his reign, the Sogo Temple has been repaired and expanded.
Nowadays, the Sogo Temple is already a huge scale, an ancient temple with the peak of incense, outside the magnificent temple gate, looking at the buildings on the mountainside, there is a sense of ethereal emptiness of the ladder.
Although there are monks who open the way to guide the way, due to the large number of pilgrims, the cars of the town and the country Houfu stop and go, and it takes a long time before they gradually reach the quieter courtyard.
Walked for a while.
Loud human voices can no longer be heard.
The group of Zhenguo Houfu got off the carriage in a courtyard.
Wei Man looked at the quiet and remote courtyard here, and suddenly felt that the crowd just now was her illusion.
"Amitabha, the poor monk hasn't seen Mrs. Huang for a long time, and Mrs. Huang has always been good lately."
A monk who was about forty years old and had a somewhat plump body folded his hands and saluted Mrs. Tai.
"Everything's fine." Mrs. Tai smiled and returned the salute to the receiving monk, and said politely: "Master Shikong is not harmed." ”
The monk had a round face, smiled, and was very kind, and after greeting everyone one by one, he led everyone to a quaint courtyard to settle down.
Because the yard is quite large, Weiman unexpectedly got a good wing.
Pushing open the simple carved window lattice, the warm and warm spring breeze with the unknown fragrance of flowers, rushing towards him, Wei Man suddenly felt refreshed.
After a short rest, everyone gathered together for a meal.
After all, Mrs. Tai is old, and after the meal, her face is already full of tiredness, and the second lady Cao Shi was very busy asking for the time to go to the Daxiong Treasure Hall to offer incense, and then took the Wei family sisters to retire.
More than half an hour passed......
With the support of the second lady Cao, Mrs. Tai took several young ladies of the Wei family and a group of servants, and under the guidance of Shikong, she went all the way to the Daxiong Hall of Sogo Temple.
As soon as you enter it, Wei Man can't help but admire in her heart, it is worthy of being the Daxiong Treasure Hall of the famous temple of the first Sogo Temple, which has heavy eaves and arches, carved beams and painted buildings, and a piece of gold and green.
Weiman knelt down with the group.
Looking at the Buddha statue with solemn Dharma and loving eyes for all beings, Wei Man's somewhat contemptuous heart at first became pious, and he sincerely knelt on the ground.
The soft prayers of Wei Xian and Wei Feng came from beside him, Wei Man paused, raised his head, and looked at the compassionate Buddha from afar, and for a while, he didn't know what to ask for.
The past of her past life suddenly came to mind, the things she wanted to forget, and the things she wanted to remember......
Weiman closed his eyes.
A face that Wei Man had deliberately forgotten clearly appeared in her mind.
That was the only man she had ever loved from the beginning of her love at the age of thirteen to the death of her at the age of twenty-eight.
I have loved, I have suffered, and I have naturally hated......
Weiman indulges himself in the past.
Now, deep in another world, thinking back to the chaotic entanglements in the previous life, how much is true love, how much is a lie, and how much is a confused account under the interweaving of truth and falsehood...... Wei Man couldn't tell if she owed him or if he owed her, or if, in the last moments of her life, he finally rushed to save her, and she blocked the fatal knife for him...... In this way, it may be considered that the two are not indebted......
Wei Man kowtowed even more reverently.
Su Rui, I don't know why we became the last person, separated and combined, entangled for more than ten years, I am already tired, I must be you too...... May you be safe and happy in the world without Weiman, and you will be happy......
I have been incense and donated a lot of sesame oil money.
As soon as he left the Daxiong Treasure Hall, a young monk greeted Mrs. Tai.
The monk first bowed to everyone, and then whispered a few words to Mrs. Tai.
Listen up.
Mrs. Tai looked at the second lady Cao and said, "Master Jingyi has returned from wandering, I will go to visit, you can lead them back first." ”
"Yes." The second lady Cao Shi hurriedly responded: "Mother, be careful of your feet." ”
Mrs. Tai nodded slightly, and left with the monk who had been found.
Everyone watched Mrs. Tai and her entourage turn through the hall and disappear, and the second lady Cao took the Wei family sisters to leave the front hall with a complicated flow of people.
Entered the well-defended courtyard of Sogo Temple.
"The scenery of the Sogo Temple is beautiful, I know, you can finally come here once, and your heart is strangely tight," the second lady Cao said with a smile: "I, who is also from your age, know the thoughts of your little girls best, now, I will do a personal favor and allow you to go around......"
Wei Man looked at the second lady Cao in surprise, and thought to herself, since Mrs. Tai entrusted their sisters to the care of the Cao family, then, according to the Cao family's temperament of seeking safety in everything, more things are better than less things, it is right to detain them all in the courtyard.
Right now, why did the Cao family suddenly let them go to play in private?
"What? The third lady's expression is very happy? Still don't believe the words of the second aunt? The second lady Cao shook her head and said to Wei Man with a smile: "The second aunt is not an unkind person...... It's just that you don't have to go far, you have to take the maid with you, and don't miss the time to go home......"
"Second aunt," Wei Feng suddenly said, "Since that's the case, then Feng Er will retire first." ”
The words were interrupted by Wei Feng, although the second lady Cao Shi's face was smiling, a little unhappiness flashed in her eyes, and she gently bowed her head to Wei Feng and agreed.
The second lady Cao's chin looks like Mrs. Tai just now.
Wei Feng didn't look at the second lady Cao, bowed lightly, and left with the maid.
Wei Xian saw that the second lady Cao's face was a little bad, and hurriedly said: "Mother should be familiar with Chongguang Temple, so don't go shopping by yourself, daughter should follow her mother, only by following her mother's side, can daughter enjoy the real scenery of Chongguang Temple......"
"I'm not more energetic than your young girl, I'm already a little tired," the second lady Cao Shi seemed to be a little tired and rubbed her temples, and said, "You and the third miss, the fifth miss go to play by yourself, I'll go back first." ”
"Is Mother tired?" Wei Xian immediately said with concern: "Where does the daughter still have the heart to play, the daughter will help her mother go back now, right?" I can also pinch my mother's feet......"
As she spoke, Wei Xian wanted to step forward and hold the arm of the second lady Cao.
The second lady Cao Shi waved her arm very quickly, stopped Wei Xian's closeness, and said lightly: "On weekdays, you are doing your filial piety, this time, let your sister send me back." ”
"Huh!?" Wei Xian's face was stunned, and she looked at Wei Ya on the side blankly.
Wei Ya puffed out her mouth, and she looked obviously unhappy on her face, seeing Wei Xian looking at her, she raised her eyes and glared at Wei Xian unhappily, and then angrily wiped away her gaze
"Sister......" Wei Xian said flatteringly to the second lady Cao: "Sister is afraid that she is also a little tired, so it is better to let her daughter ......"
"No! Go. The second lady Cao Shi waved her hand, interrupted Wei Xian's words, looked at Wei Ya again, and said lightly: "Come back with me." ”
Wei Man's eyes flashed, and he felt in his heart that the words of the second lady Cao seemed to be a little threatening.
Wei Ya bluffed and didn't speak, but she still reluctantly grabbed the arm of the second lady Cao.
Cao Shi seemed to smile comfortably, patted the back of Wei Ya's hand, looked at Wei Man again, and said, "Third Miss should remember the time, don't miss the house because of play." ”
"Second aunt, don't worry, I will definitely pay attention." Wei Man saluted the second lady Cao, and said, "The second aunt walks slowly, and the eldest sister walks slowly." ”
"Mother walks slowly, sister walks slowly." Wei Xian also said, but her face was a little pale.
The second lady bowed slightly with satisfaction and left with Wei Ya.
"I've heard for a long time that the scenery of the Sogo Temple is good, and I was thinking about how to get my grandmother to agree to let me go for a reward," Wei Man said while looking around happily, "Now that I have a second aunt, it's just right." ”
After saying this, Wei Man saw that Wei Xian was still looking at the direction where the second lady Cao and Wei Ya were leaving, and her face was in a trance.
Wei Man couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Second sister," Wei Man called softly, "I wonder if Second Sister has a place she wants to go?" ”
"Third sister," Wei Xian looked at Wei Man, but answered the question, "Do you think that there is something that my mother and eldest sister are hiding from us?" ”
