Chapter 271: Incense at Ci'an Temple
Fortunately, she usually does farm work and is in good health, but Guo's mother has just recovered from a serious illness and is old and frail, so she can climb 500 steps in one go, and Song Qingyun is afraid that she will be tired.
"If you don't get in the way, how can you worship the Bodhisattva and be afraid of being tired?"
She forgot that Guo's mother was a devout Buddhist, and when she heard that she was coming to Ci'an Temple, she got up early in the morning to bathe and change her clothes, praying for the Bodhisattva's blessing and fulfilling her wish.
In this case, the biggest difficulty is the little meat dumplings that are less than two years old, Doubao children.
Song Qingyun lowered his head and was about to say a few words, but the boy and Xiao Hei had already laughed and climbed up with their hands and feet, five hundred steps, and climbed up at his speed, and it was estimated that the sun was going to go down, so after he had fun, Su Yi fished him over, threw him on his back, strode meteors, and went out more than ten meters in a few steps.
On the way, everyone supported each other, walked to the halfway up the mountainside, there is a tea stall on a gentle stone platform, and a cup of cold herbal tea when the mouth is dry, is the most comfortable thing.
At this time, there were already a few well-dressed ladies and ladies sitting in the pavilion, and when they saw Song Qingyun and his group coming over, they all raised their heads and looked secretly.
Qingyun's eyes swept over a few people, nodded politely with a smile, and said hello, seeing that there was a vacancy in the tea stall, he took Doubao's hand and walked over slowly.
Suddenly, a hand stretched out to block her way, Song Qingyun raised her head in shock, and Qian's smiling face met her eyes.
"Second sister-in-law?" Song Qingyun was overjoyed, the person who stopped her was Sun Hao's wife Qian, she has been living in Qingyuan Mansion, she didn't expect to meet here, it's really a great fate.
"Sister Qingyun, you also came to Ci'an Temple to offer incense?" Qian tilted his head and looked her up and down, he hadn't seen her for more than half a year, Song Qingyun's complexion was getting better and better, and he was getting more and more beautiful.
"Yes, has the second sister-in-law been living in Yuxian recently?"
The two sat in the corner, and after the others scattered and sat down, Qian looked at the people with her, and was amazed in her heart, but she was silent on the surface.
"It's been more than half a month since I came back." She looked at Song Qingyun and stopped talking.
"If the second sister-in-law has something to say, please speak directly."
"Sister, in fact, I came to the incense with my mother this time, her old man stayed in the temple to go to the abbot master to speak, I will go down the mountain first to arrange the carriage and horses, maybe you can meet her in a while."
Song Qingyun let out an "oh", noncommittal, Qian couldn't see half of the emotion on her face.
She couldn't help frowning, thinking that because of the Xu family and Zhao Mingzhu's matter, I was afraid that Song Qingyun's heart would be broken.
In addition, when she came back this time, she heard that her father-in-law and third uncle had opened a sauce meat shop, and the sauce beef made was exactly the same as Qingyun's Song Ji sauce meat shop, and she was shocked at that time, and she only felt a cool breeze swishing on her back.
It stands to reason that the Sun family is sorry for Song Qingyun first, since they can't get married, they just get along with them as ordinary people, why bother digging into the corners of other people's walls, doing the same business in the ring, and screaming at outsiders to laugh.
She could only babble with Sun Hao about these words, but Sun Hao was a rough line, and she said that Qingyun would not mind.
If you really don't mind, the two of them won't be embarrassed to just drink tea!
She glanced at Song Qingyun, who was bowing her head to taste tea, and asked with a smile, "It's been busy lately, right?" Now in Qingyuan Mansion, you can eat the lo-mei made by your sister, every time your second brother walks the dart, he has to bring more than a dozen catties of lo-mei on the road, and he is not used to eating outside food, but he can't forget the lo-mei made by his sister. ”
"It's good if the second brother likes it, I asked the shopkeeper of Qingyuan to send more to the second brother and sister-in-law, and the child also likes to eat, but he is too young, and eating too much lo-mei is not good for physical development."
Qian nodded approvingly, "What I said is that Jiyu often talks about playing with Brother Doubao, and when you are free, you will go to Qingyuan to live for a few days." ”
Speaking of this, Qian suddenly paused, she carefully observed Song Qingyun's expression, and saw her smiling and lowering her head, so she asked softly, "Why don't you go to live at home in the next two days, it's going to be a birthday on Doubao, and the family hasn't been lively for a long time, you take Doubao with you, my mother will definitely be happy." ”
"Second sister-in-law, thank you for your kindness, there have been a lot of things recently, I'm afraid I can't get out."
Song Qingyun's refusal made Qian's heart half cold, she glanced at Ah Fu, who had been standing behind Qingyun obediently, and changed the topic, "This little girl looks at Miansheng, what's her name?" ”
Ah Fu blessed his body, and replied in a crisp voice, "If Mrs. Hui is a servant, the slave's name is Ah Fu." ”
Qian nodded with a smile, "I heard that you stayed in Biansai for half a year, and Ah Fu also followed you?" ”
"No, Ah Fu is the girl I found recently, and she is clever."
Song Qingyun understood the meaning of Qian's words, presumably Sun Fu also knew that Zhao Mingzhu went to Biansai to find herself, she inquired so vaguely, she wanted to know Zhao Mingzhu's whereabouts.
"Second sister-in-law, when I come back, I'll go and see Old Man Sun."
Qian smiled awkwardly, "Really?" ”
"Mr. Sun opened a sauce butcher shop in Nanji, and the sauce beef sold uses my recipe."
"I said this not to hold him responsible, but it's a pity that my fate with the Sun family is too shallow, if there is no matter of Zhao Mingzhu, if the old man Sun wants the formula, I will not hesitate to give it to him."
"Qingyun, Dad did too much at this point, he was also instigated, and when Dad bought the formula, he didn't know that it was your secret recipe, if he knew, Dad would never buy it."
"I believe what the second sister-in-law said, at that time I was still in Beihu and there was no news, maybe Mr. Sun didn't want the people of Yuxian County to be able to eat sauce beef in the future, so he wanted to open a store."
This is a pun, openly it is for the Qian family and a step for the Sun family, but secretly it is said that the Sun family is coveting the huge profits of sauce meat, otherwise why monopolize the beef market and not give others a piece of the pie?
"Speaking of Zhao Mingzhu, please tell the second sister-in-law to Mrs. Sun, she is now in the Jingwang Mansion in Shudi, living a worry-free life of food and clothing, so that the Zhao family does not have to worry about it."
"King Jing's Mansion?" Qian shouted in surprise, causing several ladies sitting in front of him to turn around frequently.
She covered her mouth in astonishment and looked at Qingyun in disbelief.
"Second sister-in-law, I can't hide it, I will also go to Shu in a few days, I have promised to marry King Jing, because Doubao is his son."
It's time to make a name for yourself.
She can't forget the time when she lived in Sun's house, and the servants below talked about her behind her back, saying that Doubao was Sun Maoyuan's illegitimate son, she was a black chicken turned into a phoenix, and she sold her body to ask for glory and wealth, saying that she was shameless and waited for unbearable words.
Guo's mother interjected at the right time, and said with a smile, "Madam, it's not too early, the prince told me to go back early, I think it's better to go up the mountain quickly." ”
Song Qingyun said goodbye to the Qian family generously, walked in front with a plain coat, Ah Fu supported Qingyun by his side, Jin Niang and Guo's mother broke off, this kind of style, even the county order lady has never had, Qian watched them leave with emotion, and couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
The little girl next to her looked at her at a loss.
"Xiu'er, after returning home, we will pack up our things, Ming'er will go back to Qingyuan early in the morning, and you are not allowed to mention today's matter to anyone, if someone in the family talks about Mrs. Song behind your back, you can go out directly, you don't have to report to me, do you hear?"
