Chapter 168: A Long History

Yongji Temple opened the Hall of Merit again after fifty years, all because of this Huo Jiu of Yongfeng.

Buddhism is admired in this dynasty, but everything related to Buddhism can be spread all over the streets and alleys. It's only been more than two months, and Huo Jiu's name is already known to women and children in the capital.

Hearing that this child was Huo Jiu, several people present frowned, and the man surnamed Chen sneered: "No wonder there is no etiquette like this, it turns out that he is a merchant's son, and it is said that he is still not disciplined by his father and mother, and he is raised in the hands of the eldest sister." ”

The scribe sitting next to him frowned even more, but he never spoke again.

It wasn't until late in the evening that Bai Shuixian finished talking about the several biographies of the empress she would meet, and Huo Roufeng was still unsatisfied, and after deciding to go back, he urged Bi Daoyuan to continue writing stories.

Huang Xianjun and Lu Yu chatted from the master's ruler in the academy to the pen and ink shop in the front street of Gongyuan, and from the white sugar cake in front of Jing'an Temple to the steamed crab in the Zhuangyuan Building. Li Ye couldn't interject, but he could listen energetically, he grew up in Yangzhou since he was a child, and he was very interested in the people and customs of the capital. Seeing that the female storyteller had finally finished telling all the books worth a hundred taels of silver, Li Ye asked Huo Roufeng: "Huo Jiu, are you still listening?" Do you want to come again for a hundred taels? ”

Huo Roufeng shook her head: "Wait until a few days, I won't listen to it now." ”

After a while, when Bi Daoyuan finished writing, this white narcissus learned, she came over and listened to it again, well, listen to it for another hundred taels.

Huang Xianjun proposed to come to his house for dinner, and a new cook came to his house, Huo Roufeng shook her head again: "I want to go home and have dinner with my sister." ”

Everyone knows that the Huo family only has two sisters and brothers, unlike they are all a big family, and it is nothing if one less does not come back, so no one said anything more, Li Ye called Xiao Er to come over to settle the bill.

At this moment, Xiao Er led Bai Narcissus over and thanked him for the reward of one hundred taels.

Huo Roufeng called Zhang Ting, Zhang Ting took out a red reward from his arms and gave it to Bai Shuixian, Bai Shuixian knew that this was the one who ordered his story, so he thanked him again.

Huo Roufeng said to her: "My sister also likes to listen to books, I will ask someone to send you a post in a few days, you can come to the Huo family in Shuangjing Hutong to say a few paragraphs." ”

Bai Narcissus hurriedly responded, Huo Roufeng saw that her speech and demeanor were very good, but she was a little familiar, and when she returned to the house, she called Zhang Shengping and asked him to check on Bai Narcissus.

When Shi Yuan and Chen Zelong left the Four Seas Teahouse, Bai Shuixian had not finished speaking.

Chen Zelong's face was like the bottom of a pot, and he didn't even say hello to the other people, so he got into his sedan chair.

Shi Yuan looked at his back and shook his head.

When he returned to the house, he called his younger brother Shi Yun and told him about today's events in the Sihai Teahouse, Shi Yun said: "What does my brother mean, is it for me to have less contact with Chen Hanlin in the future?" ”

Shi Yuan said: "That's the case, this person is narrow-minded and mean-spoken, it's better for you to retreat from him." ”

Shi Yun should be, chatted with Shi Yuan for a few more words, and saw that Shi Yuan's eyes were tired, so he resigned.

Seeing that Shi Yun was gone, Shi Yuan sighed for a long time, next year Shi Yun Shu Jishi expires, and now there is a war, the emperor prays to God and worship Buddha all day long, and allows Guo Yong and others in the court to fight with the Queen Mother's party, and the six departments are not peaceful, if Shi Yun can stay in the Hanlin Academy, it is also feasible.

Therefore, today he only asked a few people from the Hanlin Academy to come out to sit down, but he didn't expect to break up unhappily because of Huo Jiu's child.

He served as a long history in the mansion of the eldest princess of Fangyi, which is regarded as an idle messenger, although the eldest princess is favored by the queen mother, but does not directly participate in the government politics, in the eyes of outsiders, his long history, that is, the trivial things in charge of the princess's mansion, is very leisurely.

He sat alone in the study for a long time, and Huo Jiu's face appeared in his mind, and finally, he called Shi Fu, who was long-lived, took out a seemingly inconspicuous wolf hair from the drawer, and said to Shi Fu: "Tomorrow you take this pen and go to Jiangnan Baomo Zhai on the front street of Gongyuan......

Huo Roufeng returned to the house, said a few words to Zhang Shengping, and then quarreled that she was hungry, she was growing her body, and she kept her mouth open every day, but she was still hungry easily.

She rushed to her sister's yard, the maids were carrying the kang table in, and the second-class maid in her sister's house, Lu Zhu, said to her with a smile: "Ninth master, I ate sheep and scorpion hot pot today, and the eldest lady specially asked people to buy fire on Baolai Street." ”

Huo Roufeng cheered exaggeratedly, grabbed the front, and ran in to find her sister, as if she was eating sheep scorpion hot pot for the first time.

Lu Zhu laughed quietly behind her, the ninth master is so comfortable.

Mrs. Huo sat at the kang table, Huo Roufeng threw off her shoes and climbed onto the kang, sat down next to Mrs. Huo, and said with a smile: "Sister, it's better to eat on the kang table, it's like eating." ”

When they were in Jiangnan, they all ate at a large round table, and when they came to the capital, they switched to a kang table at the suggestion of Huo Roufeng.

Mrs. Huo glanced at her and said, "I heard from the shopkeepers in the shop that when they first came to the capital, they slept on the kang in winter, and their throats were swollen. ”

"I'm not afraid, I like to sleep on the kang, and I also like a house with earth dragons."

While speaking, the maids had already set the table, looking at the gurgling bubbles in the pot, Huo Roufeng sniffed and said to Mrs. Huo: "Sister, fragrant, right?" ”

Mrs. Huo nodded helplessly: "Fragrant, a smell of mutton." ”

Lu Yun covered his mouth and smiled beside him, and scalded vegetables and tofu for Mrs. Huo.

Jiu Ye has liked to eat these since he was a child, and when he arrived in the capital, he even intensified it, and he didn't know what was delicious about this sheep and scorpion hot pot.

After eating and drinking, Mama Fan told Huo Roufeng that Roger was still waiting for her.

Huo Roufeng then remembered that she had hung Roger for an afternoon.

"Sister, let's meet him together, he can wait for me for an afternoon, there must be something important."

Mrs. Huo had long been curious about Roger, so she asked her to accept the kang table, and the sisters went to the small hall.

After a while, Roger came over, he had just had dinner, he was wondering, the Huo family had only been in the capital from Jiangnan for a few months, but they followed the local customs, lunch and dinner were all northern tastes, and they were very authentic.

Mrs. Huo only felt that her eyes lit up, and her eyes swept away, and she saw that several girls around her all covered their mouths with handkerchiefs, as if they wanted to hide their exclamations.

The doctor Luo in front of him, as Huo Roufeng said, does not look extraordinary.

An angular handsome face, the lines are like an axe and a knife carved exquisitely, and the skin is as white as goat's milk, like a fine sweet white porcelain, which should be sword eyebrows and starry eyes, but those eyes are like two purest sapphires, shining brightly.

His hair was black at first glance, but when he stood under the lamp, it was brown and faintly glowed with gold.
