Chapter 100: Becoming a Monk (I)
I have never met this Jining teacher, let alone have any friendship. Who entrusted her to herself? Speaking of which, I know very few people.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but jump in her heart, and her palms suddenly sweated.
But in front of Mrs. Tai, she smiled quietly and followed Mrs. Jining out of Mrs. Tai's main room and went to the east wing room on the side.
The maid served tea to the two, and Mrs. Jining smiled and said, "Fourth lady, I don't know if you know a woman named Duan Shuangying and a woman named Yuan Xueyi." ”
The eldest aunt and the second aunt!
Although she vaguely guessed it, it was confirmed, and Eleven Niang still felt very shocked.
I didn't expect them to have such a nice name...... However, since Mrs. Jining came to the door through Mrs. Tai, she wanted to talk to her alone in front of everyone, and asked her straight to the point if she knew the two aunts, so she was prepared.
She smiled slightly: "My mother's eldest aunt and second aunt are surnamed Duan and Yuan. I just don't know if it's the two you mentioned. ”
"That's it." Mrs. Jining said with a smile, "The eldest aunt said that Mrs. is a straightforward person, let me find you and say that you will definitely help them." ”
After deceiving everyone, including yourself...... Why did the two aunts think they would help her?
Shi Niang smiled and looked at Mrs. Jining without making a sound.
Mrs. Jining was not surprised by her attitude, but said with a smile: "The two aunts said that they have believed in Buddhism for many years and sincerely want to become a monk and worship the Buddha. It's just that the housewife is afraid that people who have a lot of things will gossip, thinking that the two aunts are too bad to be abused by the housemother, so they have to do it. Therefore, he has not agreed. After coming to Yanjing with the people of your mansion this time, I saw through the red dust, so I ran away from home to support my temple. I don't know if Madame knows Ciyuan Temple. In Yanjing, although my Ciyuan Temple cannot be compared with Huguo Temple and Baiyun Temple, which are protected by monks and Taoist temples, it is not an obscure place. Speaking of this, her face showed a look of pride, "The two aunts are literate and break the text, advance and retreat to a certain extent, speak elegantly, and support our temple, not only can concentrate on practicing Buddhism, but also can show their strengths." Mrs. is now in Yanjing, and she is not familiar with the place, why not open the door for the two aunts, and it is also convenient! ”
The two aunts are really a good plan!
It's just literacy and broken words, there is a degree of advance and retreat, and the words are elegant and I am afraid that they will not enter the eyes of this teacher!
"I don't know how much incense money the two aunts donated to your temple?"
Eleven Niang looked at Mrs. Jining lightly.
Jining smiled: "Mrs. Guo is a straightforward person." but five thousand taels of silver. ”
It took a lot of effort for Eleven Niang to control herself and not show a surprised expression.
Na Jining said with a smile: "This silver will naturally not be taken into account by Mrs. Yongping Hou, but for the two aunts, it is the merit of filial piety to the Bodhisattva." That's why I begged the poor nuns to help me make this trip. ”
Eleven Niang couldn't help but feel sad for Aunt Yang.
At first, she thought that Shi Niang's bracelet contained a silver ticket, but later found out that it was arsenic...... She was thinking, where did all that money go? Or, what is it used for?
This is where the story comes in.
Shi Niang's stay in Yuhang, which the eldest master can't see, will only be cleaned up by the eldest lady like a blunt knife. It's better to fight up, maybe there will be a way out. And the two aunts must have won Aunt Yang's trust as if they were bluffing themselves, and jointly set up this plan to surround Wei to save Zhao and Jin Cicada to get out of her shell. Aunt Yang used her death to attract the attention of others, and at the same time, she also hoped that the eldest lady knew that she was dead, and she could have a trace of mercy for Shi Niang, so that the two aunts could take the opportunity of participating in the temple fair to take Shi Niang away, and then go to Beijing together.
Shi Niang appeared so coincidentally, she has been wanting to come to Yanjing for a while. It's just that I don't know who sent them the letter of the wind.
Entrusted by people, loyal to people. That being the case, Shi Niang married Wang Lang, why didn't the two aunts come forward to stop it?
Jining seemed to be able to see through her thoughts, and said with a smile: "The two aunts also asked me to bring a message to my wife." Said, Miss Ten seeks benevolence and righteousness, and seeks righteousness and righteousness. They are just weak women, begging for a chance to live! ”
Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile bitterly: "After all, this is my mother's business, I'm afraid that my mother will be in charge." ”
"That's nature." Jining said with a smile, "It's just that since the eldest lady of Luofu can marry you to the Yongping Marquis Mansion, she must have thought about it." The two aunts, there are not too much, and there are no regrets. I think the eldest lady who came to this Household Mansion can be counted. But for me, Ciyuan Temple is different. can have someone like the two aunts who have something to say, and they must be very favored by the high-ranking women. That's why I had to come to Madame and ask for this grace. ”
She repeatedly emphasized that she loved the two aunts and welcomed them to Ciyuan Temple to become monks. It seems that he is determined to wade into this troubled water.
Eleven Niang can also understand.
For the temple to develop, it must have corresponding talents. Ordinary monks are either discouraged because they live in poverty and have nothing to rely on, or they are disheartened by family changes, the former has no education, and later they are very indifferent to the world. Like the two aunts, they once read for the eldest man's red sleeves in the middle of the night, and their knowledge and conversation are unusual. At such an age, I still tossed and ran away from home, and I was afraid of disturbing the layout of the eldest wife for fear of being retaliated by the eldest wife, and I guess I also had the longing to start a new life again. Such two people were able to join Ciyuan Temple, and they also donated a large amount of sesame oil money...... No matter what aspect it is, Jining is going to come out of this. What's more, Shi Niang married into the Maoguo Mansion, and she married into the Yongping Hou Mansion, the truth of the matter was told, Shi Niang left home without permission, and she had such a deviant sister...... In the end, it was the two of them whose reputations were damaged, and it was Luo Fu who lost more than they gained.
Therefore, Mrs. Jining dared to tell him so bluntly.
"Since Madame doesn't object, then I'll go to Luofu later." Mrs. Jining's purpose was achieved, and she stood up with a smile, "If Mrs. Tai asks, I will say that it is the two aunts who want to become monks in Ciyuan Temple, and I am specially entrusted to ask Mrs. to come and ask Mrs. Luo to talk in front of Mrs. Luo." As for the rest, I will not mention a word. ”
Dare to thank this Jining master and the two aunts?
Eleven Niang was a little ridiculous.
She suddenly understood Xu Lingyi's helplessness.
That day in the small courtyard, I knew that it was a trap set by Yuan Niang, and I knew what the consequences would be, but for the sake of those scruples or things, I could only jump down......
Back to Mrs. Tai, Jining Shi Taiguo said in the east wing, saying that she was entrusted by the two aunts to invite Eleven Niang to the eldest lady to say something, and also said that Eleven Niang felt that since the two aunts were monks, they were willing to fulfill it, and after the newlywed in January, they asked Mrs. Tai and Hou Ye what they meant, and then chose a day to go back to their parents' house to discuss with their mothers about the two aunts.
Although everyone was a little surprised when they heard it, Mrs. Jining's words were reasonable, and it was the matter of Eleven Niang's family, so no one would investigate it at this time.
Mrs. Jining said a conversation and then left. Mrs. Tai saw that the hour was not early, and went to the Buddhist hall with Du's mother. Naturally, the others dispersed.
When Eleven Niang returned to the house, she found Holly and told her Jining's intention.
"You go back and tell the big * milk about this, especially to remind the big * milk that looking at Jining's appearance, you have made up your mind to meddle in this matter." He also advised, "Don't tell the eldest lady for the time being, tell the eldest * grandmother first, and ask the eldest * grandmother to get a charter." What should I do if I see this? ”
Holly obeyed.
Eleven Niang called Tao's mother again: "Can you pick a few clever people, I still have two second-class maids, six third-class maids, and four rough mother-in-law on my side." ”
Mother Tao hurriedly said: "Madame, don't worry, leave it to me." I'll bring someone to you in the afternoon. ”
Eleven Niang nodded, and said in a low voice: "Can you set up two or three people to go to the study in the outer courtyard on an errand." ”
is worthy of being a person of Yuan Niang!
Mother Tao was slightly stunned and immediately whispered: "The three young masters are going to school in the home school, and there are several people over there who were sent by us. Madame wants to know anything, just ask me. Even if I can't answer for a while, I can write to you in the afternoon. ”
Shi Niang shook her head slightly: "Listening to the tone of the Hou Ye, I'm afraid that I am looking for a suitable gentleman for the three young masters." At that time, there will definitely be a lecture hall in the outer study. Brother Zhen is six years old this year, and his body is weak, and most of them will follow a few brothers to enlighten in the study. Mrs. Tai didn't mean to hand over Brother Zhen to me at all. Moreover, after all, we are women in the house, and we are not as well-informed as the men outside. If there is a good gentleman by his side to guide him from time to time, he can not only occupy a position, but also supervise Brother Chen's conduct and knowledge, if there is anything, we can also talk to Mr. and let Mr. teach Brother Chen. Wouldn't it be better than me meddlers like this? ”
Mother Tao couldn't help but appreciate: "Madame, this is a good idea." I know. Let's do it. As he spoke, he got up in a hurry.
"You don't have to be in such a hurry." Eleven Niang said with a smile, "First, Mr.'s matter has not yet been decided, and secondly, he is just preparing in advance, for fear that it will attract people's ears and eyes when the time comes." You know, there are also three young masters who study together. What we know is that we want to look at Brother Chen, but if we don't know, we thought we were going to look at the second young master. ”
Mother Tao immediately nodded: "Madam, don't worry, I will do it without knowing it." As he spoke, he hesitated a little, "It's the evening fragrance, and there is still some trouble......
"Tell me about it!"
"Wanxiang came to me yesterday and said that there are eleven kitchens in the house. Yesterday afternoon, the third lady said that except for the kitchen in Mrs. Tai's house, the other ten kitchens were served as side dishes according to the order, and no more orders were allowed. If anyone wants to add food temporarily, they will do it in the kitchen at their own expense. Mother Tao was still afraid that Eleven Niang would not understand, so she explained, "In the past, when my aunt and grandmother were in charge of the house, they pulled out money according to the size of the kitchen, and they were somewhat conceited. Some kitchens use more in the first half of the month, and save some in the second half of the month. There have been no overspending, either. Temporary food additions are overpaid expenses, and naturally they are paid by themselves. But the third lady ...... like this"
“…… In this way, ten kitchens can buy groceries together. Eleven Niang smiled and picked up the conversation, "You can make a fortune by buying in the kitchen." Isn't it? ”
Tao's mother was stunned.
Eleven Niang's smile is still the same, gentle with a little kindness, but there is a kind of calmness in her eyes that sees everything. As if to say, it's just a little trick, you don't have to panic!
Mother Tao's face suddenly burned red.
