Text 0025 Pan Tao Palace Temple Fair

Yoga is a project that Miao can think of at present to be able to exercise quietly, at this time there are many eyes and ears in the Jiang family, and it is not suitable to do some exercises that are easy to be discovered, which makes the physical fitness in the previous life super good, so the Miao who is vigorous and resolute feels very depressed. Fortunately, there is now an extra secret sharer, although it will take time to test whether she can keep the secret and accept her trendy ideas, but now it is much easier to learn yoga than Miao's old arms and legs.

As everyone knows, at this time, Shuangxi's heart is also turning over the river and the sea, where will these actions be what a lady can do!

But in line with the principle of trusting Miao, she is determined to follow Miao's head down, regardless of whether he is in Elysium or hell in front of him.

On the second day, Miao Wuye knew that Miao was sick, so he came to visit in person.

Miao asked people to invite Dr. Kang, and then said: "My sister looks a little bad at the fifth brother's face, is it tired recently, my sister has always believed in Dr. Kang's medical skills, since I have caught up, I will ask Dr. Kang to give the fifth brother a pulse diagnosis." ”

Miao Wuye was about to resign, but Miao had already asked Wang's mother to give up one after another, thinking that it was just to ask for a safe pulse to reassure his sister.

Doctor Kang came forward to diagnose the pulse according to the discussion, and said after a while: "Miao Wuye seems to have an old illness that has not been cleared before, but it is not a big deal, just take care of it, stay in the next prescription, and the fifth master can take a few pairs according to the prescription." ”

Then Chong Miao nodded vaguely.

Miao sighed in his heart, and then said: "Doctor Kang, my fifth brother has never liked to see doctors, since I have been called to meet today, I, as a younger sister, can't call my brother to leave like this, and ask Doctor Kang to take a closer look." ”

Doctor Kang pretended to say: "Since Mrs. is not at ease, then I will bring my senior brother to the door to give Miao Wuye a special diagnosis and treatment on another day, and how about taking care of it." ”

Miao said: "It's so good to have Dr. Lao Kang." ”

Miao Wuye waved his hand and said, "There is no need to be so troublesome. ”

Miao said: "Fifth brother, you just listen to your sister once." ”

Miao Wuye nodded: "Okay." ”

Three days later, Dr. Kang really took his senior brother to Miao Wuye's house, and the rhetoric was still the same, but the medicine was changed, Miao Wuye naturally didn't know, but Miao brought a message to Zhang, asking her to keep an eye on Miao Wuye and take medicine. As soon as Zhang heard it, he understood, and he was grateful to Miao's sister-in-law at the moment.

In the evening, Dr. Kang came to tell Miao what had happened, and mentioned his senior brother Dr. Ye many times, so Miao asked Dr. Kang to have time to invite his senior brother to come over, and Miao wanted to thank him in person. Doctor Kang hesitated a little and said, "My senior brother has a strange temper, and he is afraid that ordinary ladies in the back house will be sluggish. ”

Miao said: "In this case, then I will ask Dr. Kang to tell me on my behalf, saying that my Miao is grateful for Dr. Ye's help, and I want to entertain Dr. Ye in the restaurant under my name, and I implore Dr. Ye to appreciate the light." ”

As soon as Dr. Kang heard that he didn't need to go into the back house, he felt a little bit at the bottom of his heart, so he said to go back and try it.

The next day, Dr. Kang's apprentice Xiao Yunzi said that Dr. Kang's senior brother had entered Beijing and thanked Miao for his kindness.

Miao said to Wang's mother: "I think this Senior Brother Ye is a gorgeous person, otherwise he is so evasive about the back house." ”

Mother Wang didn't understand, Miao shook her head and smiled, and Shuangxi blushed and secretly laughed.

On the first day of the first month of March, Miao took a group of children and asked Mrs. Jiang to go to the temple fair, Miao said to his sons: "You are all men, you can enter and leave the temple fair at any time, but your wives and sisters can't. Tell the children in the family to keep an eye on me, and the mother-in-law has followed me well, but if I go back smoothly today, the entourage will be rewarded! ”

Jiang Hai and the middle people naturally should be.

Originally, he and Jiang Hezhong had made an appointment to meet a customer, but Miao pushed it back.

"The business can never be done, ask someone else to do it for you today, and make up for it another day, and it is not a major matter related to the rise and fall of the family."

Jiang Haizhong had no choice but to hand over the task to the chief manager, and his brother rode a horse to follow the team rushing to the temple and act as a bodyguard.

There is also a reason why the Miao family did this, not to mention anything else, their wives and sisters are not enough to have the protection of their mother-in-law, the temple is always prone to mistakes, the temple fair is crowded, and the female relatives are not good to ask the family to accompany them.

Fortunately, the family went early and asked for a large courtyard in the temple, the women rested in the north room, and the men were sitting upside down.

The ladies were so happy, they wore hats for the maids to support, and their relatives bought a lot of gadgets at the temple fair, ate a lot of snacks, and saw a lot of tricks, showmanship, and tricks, which was very fun. Miao just walked around and went into the temple to rest, and she just wanted to be fresh, mainly to let the women in the family come out and let off. The Miao family asked people to invite the female gentleman, but Mr. Weng said that he was too lazy to go, so he brought Jiang Yunqiu with him.

Visiting the temple fair was still a matter of childhood for Jiang Yunqiu, and now that the family affairs have been decided, she can still visit the temple fair, she feels very happy, but she is suffering because she doesn't bring any money. When the Miao family went out, a symbolic child gave twenty taels of silver pocket money, Jiang Yunqiu blushed and refused to accept it, but seeing that Qiao's and Yao's both accepted it, he accepted it persuasively, and Qiao's told her that it was given by the elders and could not be shirked. And Jiang Fengzhong happened to be very concerned about the movement of the big house recently, and when he saw that even his sister had been taken to the temple fair, he hid from his mother and brought the younger brother of Jiang Yunqiu's classmate to the temple fair, so that he and Jiang Yunqiu glanced at each other across the street.

The man is handsome and calm, and the woman is as beautiful as a flower, and both of them like it very much. Jiang Yunqiu is really grateful to his brother and aunt.

Miao carefully told the female dependents, and she went to the Pan Tao Palace to chat with the abbot.

Pan Tao Palace has always been a favorite place for the elderly and married women, and Miao also specially instructed two daughters-in-law to come in and pay respects.

The abbot of Pan Tao Palace is called Changshou, and the guest knows that Miao is a distinguished guest, so he leads the way more diligently, and Wang's mother gives him a tip of two taels of silver. "The abbot has a guest now, and I ask you to wait in the side hall for a while."

Miao was surprised: "Huh? Longevity Taoist is entertaining guests at this time? It's really rare. ”

Zhike smiled: "What Madam said is very true, if it weren't for the abbot's junior brother who came here, the abbot would never have seen it." ”

Zhike knew that Miao was one of the abbot's few friends, so he didn't talk so much.

Miao was curious: "Oh? The junior brother of the longevity Taoist? Who is the Taoist head of the Taoist temple? ”

Zhike said: "I heard that it is not the Taoist Chief, but the lay disciples of the Cloud Leaf Daoist in his later years, as if the Cloud Leaf Daoist likes something, he specially sent a letter to all the apprentices, asking them to recognize the junior disciples of this lay disciple." ”

Miao thought that it would be difficult to meet each other if he was a lay disciple, so he should go to the side hall and wait. But in the end, he was interested in this lay disciple of the Cloud Leaf Daoist, after all, the Miao family heard a lot of descriptions of the character of the Cloud Leaf Daoist from the longevity Daoist, among which Wan did not pamper and dot on a certain disciple's deeds, and now he loves this lay disciple so much, and he doesn't know what kind of elegant and peerless character he is, and he has always been in the eyes of the Cloud Leaf Daoist.

Wang's mother helped Miao sit on the Zen chair, Shuangxi asked Zhike for hot water to make tea, and Chunxi squatted on the ground to beat Miao's legs.

This side hall is actually three wings in the courtyard of the longevity of the Taoist, and if you stand in front of the doors and windows, you can see the situation in the courtyard through the screen window. Mother Wang always knew Miao's temperament, so she guarded in front of the door, and after a while, she really invited Miao to come to the window, and it turned out that the longevity Taoist sent someone out.

The man was dressed as a scholar, with a book basket on his back, black cloth boots on the soles of his feet, and his back looked a little thin, but he was tall, with long hands and long feet. The longevity Taoist looked very happy, and there was a smile on his always cold face, although he couldn't hear what they said, but after the two of them said goodbye, the man suddenly paused, and his eyes glanced at this side room.

Mother Wang was startled and involuntarily took a step back, but Miao didn't react at all, anyway, she thought that even if the person noticed that someone in the wing room, he couldn't see him, so why dodge.

After the man left quickly, Miao asked Wang's mother to open the door, and Shi Shiran walked to the side of the longevity Taoist who had not yet returned to the house, and looked at the figure outside the door that was getting farther and farther away with him, and said, "This person is so sensitive, your junior brother?" ”

Changshou retracted his gaze, glanced at Miao, the smile on his face narrowed a lot, and said, "It turned out to be you." Come in and talk about it. ”

Wang's mother returned to the wing room independently, and Zhike also served tea and retreated.

This is the practice of the Miao family in the courtyard of the longevity Taoist, anyway, the longevity Taoist is not a rigid person, and the Miao family is not a person who pays attention to the rules, so the two of them naturally sat down in the hall and chatted with each other.

It is said that in the past, the Miao family also had some friendship with the longevity Taoist, and that was because the longevity Taoist said that he had never seen someone colder than himself, so he was impressed by the Miao family at that time, and he would occasionally tell her some scriptures. After changing to the current Miao family, the longevity Taoist felt that getting along with her was more natural, and the coldness was much less, but the spirituality had increased a lot, so the relationship was even better.

"As the head of the house, if you don't take care of that family, why did you run to me to hide from Qingjing." Changshou Daoist didn't look at Miao's either, he was playing chess on the side, and after a period of familiarity, he had given up the idea of playing against Miao.

"It's a group of young people, and after spending a lot of time with them, they don't feel comfortable. I, a person who is buried in half of the loess, have a lot of fun with young people, so it is better to ask you for a good omen. Miao also said lazily, there is not so much smell of incense here in Changshou, and the yard and house are full of natural earthy fragrance and the faint fragrance of tea.

The longevity Taoist sighed, knowing that the Miao clan was talking about his honorific name, longevity. Then he looked at Miao's fifty-year-old and thirty-year-old face, sighed again, and asked: "It is said that my Taoist family has a secret recipe for immortality, but no matter how much you maintain the poor Dao, you are not as tender as you, so I really don't plan to teach the poor Dao some secret recipes?" ”

"It's innate, you can't learn it." Miao hit him, and he couldn't get used to seeing him as a monk who cared so much about face.

Longevity is already good, his indifferent temperament makes him expressionless all year round, so the folds on his face are basically gone, he doesn't bask in the sun all year round, and he has a fair complexion, slender eyebrows, slender Danfeng eyes, a straight nose bridge, and thin lips covered by a little beard.

Changshou wanted to sigh again, and after thinking about the number of sighs today, he held back.

"I heard you're going to Beijing?" He finally remembered something.

"Well, go to Beijing to pay respects and look at the old man." Miao replied absentmindedly.

"Then you can help me bring someone, I don't worry about him entering Beijing alone."

"If it were your junior brother, I would agree, and others would not be allowed to talk." Miao said casually.

"It's my junior brother!"

"Oh?" Miao became interested and asked, "Is that the one who just went out?" The one that makes you laugh with your teeth bared? ”

Changshou coughed twice, this Miao has always said anything that can stimulate him when he talks to himself, isn t he just smiling, as for what she said so ugly.

"It's him, although he said no, but he is a scholar, in this troubled world......" longevity nonsense opened.

Miao squinted at him: "Edit, continue to edit." ”

Changshou frowned, "Why are you so difficult to fool." ”

Miao said: "I have a pure heart, so my intuition is very accurate. ”

Changshou almost sighed again, but he still sighed after holding back: "Alas! I really want to see who you will be more powerful against my junior brother. ”

Miao said: "Speaking of business, can't you let me take him into Beijing?" ”

Changshou shook his head and said, "Forget it." You have such a temper, and he is such a stubborn, I am afraid that both sides will not please me. ”

Miao said: "I don't want to take this hot potato, I know by looking at the back of that person that it must be a bitter hate, and I am not allowed to enter Beijing to find anyone's bad luck, I don't want to cause trouble for my mother's family." ”

Changshou looked at Miao for a long time and asked, "Honestly, do you know how to tell hexagrams?" ”

Miao ignored him, and called the acquaintance to instruct: "Fill me with a few pots of today's tea, wrap half a catty of tea, and I'll go back to send Mr. Woman." ”

Changshou Tiger had a face, but Zhike obeyed Miao's instructions very much, and prepared the things one by one and sent them to the wing.

Miao stood up and said, "It's time to go back, it's for you." ”

She left a booklet, and the longevity chief was happy.

"Not anymore."

When Miao arrived in the courtyard, Zhike had already informed Wang's mother that they were waiting in the courtyard, so they left the courtyard of Changshou and returned to the rented courtyard. Qiao's has come back, Yao's is still shopping with other sisters, and Miao sees that Qiao's has already made some hot water to prepare tea and snacks, and he is relieved at the moment.

After waiting for a while, the people who visited the temple fair came back one after another, more or less harvested, Jiang Yunping took her two daughters with a red face, after all, she had never had the opportunity to take her children to the temple fair before, and now there is no shortage of money or time, and there is a brother to protect her, she can buy whatever the two children like, and she doesn't have to look at their disappointed eyes, which makes her feel proud and happy from the bottom of her heart.

At lunchtime, there were a few people who had eaten a lot of snacks at the temple fair and said that they couldn't eat it and went to rest early. In the afternoon, I walked around for another hour, and then took the carriage back to Jiang's house.

Jiang Yunqiu was worried in her heart, for fear that her family would know that she and her fiancΓ© had met in private, but there were not many people who paid attention to her, and she was just worried in vain. At night, I remembered the man's demeanor, remembered the amazement that flashed in the man's eyes when he looked at himself, and his heart was sweet, and he couldn't help but get up and look at the makeup given by the eldest aunt in the cabinet, the shining golden face, and secretly cheered himself up: Don't be afraid, I am worthy of him.

Jiang Yunling bought a few handkerchiefs embroidered by ordinary women, although the materials were poor, but the patterns were very vivid, she liked them very much, and studied them by herself. Jiang Yunque bought a set of pottery zodiac signs and turned the Hundred Treasure Pavilion in the house upside down and down. Jiang Yunyan found a notebook, bought a wooden hairpin, and brought snacks back to the maids.

The subordinates who followed each got a reward of 500 wen, and they were all very happy.

Miao went back to the room and crooked for a while, and Wang's mother came in and said that there was a letter from Beijing, saying that the yard that Miao asked his eldest brother to help repair had been completed, and it was being dried these days, and they could move in when they entered Beijing.

Miao said: "It's really troublesome big brother." ”

Mother Wang smiled: "You read the letter yourself, the uncle really reported to you in every detail, for fear that he would not do well enough, and your sister who spoke to him for the first time will not need him in the future." ”

Miao smiled, "It's been more than half a year this time, do you want to take Xiu'er and the two of them with you?" Good to take care of you on the way. ”

Mother Wang shook her head: "Don't! Not to mention the aunt and grandmother, even the uncle is indispensable to Xu Tu. There are people around the slaves and maids, and there is no need for them to serve. ”

Miao said to her: "You are really reluctant to use them." ”

"The slave maid learned this from the lady, and if she is not her own, she is also called the slave maid, so it will naturally hurt."

Miao couldn't laugh or cry.

"Shuangxi, go and call Chunxi and Chunjing, I have something to order."

"Yes, ma'am."

Shuangxi called the two of them in, and retreated to the door.

"You two have been in charge of my contact with the shopkeepers for all these years, and you have worked hard for you. Now that you are all going to get married, some things are better to do, but you have to unload the errands around me. If you still want to follow me on an errand after you get married, you can do that, but the content will be adjusted. If you want to concentrate on your life, you can come in and chat with me when you have time. Now let's sort out all the work in my hand and gradually hand it over to Fengzhi and Songzhi. ”

The two hurriedly nodded in response.

"You also know that there are a lot of things around me, if you have a good relationship with a trustworthy and stable person, you can recommend it to Mother Wang, and let her choose some powerful ones for me, after all, the second-class ones must also be made up."

Chunxi is overjoyed, this is a chance to sell favors to the two of them, and he thanked Miao at the moment and said that he would choose with all his heart.

Chunxi is responsible for the liaison of the Jiang family's shopkeeper, and she chose Fengzhi as her successor; Chunjing was in charge of the liaison with the treasurer of the Miao family's dowry, and she used Songzhi.

After explaining this, Wang's mother came in again and said, "The fifth uncle's mansion has sent a message and said that he will leave in three days." Tell the lady to get ready, and when the time comes, someone will come over to guide the way and converge. ”
