Laba Festival.

Also known as "Dharma Treasure Festival", "Buddha Enlightenment Festival", "Enlightenment Meeting", etc., it was originally the day when Buddhism commemorated the enlightenment of Shakyamuni Buddha, and then gradually became a folk festival, and it was the first annual festival in the northern region.

On this day, several temples in Beijing will hold a bathing Buddha puja, the monks chant sutras and worship the Buddha, and imitate the story of the cowherd girl offering chyle, boiling porridge with fragrant rice, walnut kernels, chestnuts and other things to offer to the Buddha, and bathing the Buddha with perfume.

There are countless believers who have released lives to pray for blessings.

Yes, today's temple meeting to serve the country is extraordinarily lively!

In the past, the market in Shenjing was already extremely prosperous, and it was not much better than a modern ordinary city.

But compared with today's temple fair, it is a bit of a trivial.

Before arriving at the boundary of Baoguo Temple, everyone can already see the flow of people from all over the world, which can really be called a sentence, waving sleeves like clouds, sweating like rain!

With such a dense crowd of pedestrians, it is difficult to walk, let alone ride in a horse-drawn carriage.

Seeing this, Rao was a cherished spring who wanted to come out to visit the temple fair, and he couldn't help but retreat a little.

Jia Cong also saw that his scalp was a little numb.

Gently opening the corner of the carriage curtain, Yingchun said to Jia Cong next to him: "Third brother Cong, why don't we go back, there are too many people at the temple fair today!" ”

"Don't go back yet."

Xichun hurriedly grabbed Yingchun's sleeve and begged: "We came out with great difficulty today, wouldn't it be a pity to go back in such a hurry?"

Besides, we came out to buy some poetry books and go back to the poetry club to learn to paint, how can we give up halfway? ”

"This ......"

Yingchun couldn't help but hesitate when he heard this.

Jia Cong pondered slightly.

also said: "Go back, there are too many pedestrians on the street today, and a few of you are all from the little girl's family, so naturally you have to avoid some." ”

"Then go back," Daiyu also nodded in agreement, "There are so many people, the carriage must not be able to enter, we can only walk if we want to visit the temple fair, and the old ladies know about it, but it's amazing!" ”

The accompanying maids such as Qingwen and Snow Goose also nodded again and again.

"Then go back!"

Jia Cong made the final decision.

Seeing that Xichun is still a little sullen.

Jia Cong smiled again: "That's it, the four of us are waiting outside here, those poetry books and picture albums, I asked He Dong and He Bei to buy them for you."

Let's go back to the house when we finish buying, and the third brother invites you to eat something good! ”

"Okay then."

understands that this is the best solution in front of him, although he has some regrets in his heart, but Xichun knows how to measure after all.

The little girls are all three-minute hot.

In the blink of an eye, he pestered Jia Cong again and asked what the "eat something good" was eating.

In this regard, Jia Cong just smiled and said nothing.

Not much.

He Dong came back alone with a stack of poetry albums.

was puzzled, and saw He Dongchao secretly winked at him.

After being stunned for a moment, Jia Cong handed over the poetry album to Daiyu Xichun and the others as usual, and then urged the coachman to quickly turn around the front of the car and go home.

On the road.

He Dong whispered to Jia Cong about meeting the kidnapper at the temple fair, and said that the other party was expected to cover the wind and take care of the aftermath, not at all like those scattered small fish and shrimp.

Jia Cong asked in a condensed voice, "Is He Bei staring at them, is it safe?" ”

He Dong patted his chest and promised: "The third master can rest assured, he is hiding or something, the fourth is the best at it!" ”

"That's not good," Jia Cong was still a little uneasy, "A good swimmer is drowning, even if he is good at keeping an eye on and hiding, but the other party has a lot of eyes, and he doesn't bring a blade, if there is a mistake, won't he regret dying?" ”

There was a pause.

Jia Cong instructed: "Together with He Nan and He Xi, bring bows and arrows and blades, and find out the other party's den as soon as possible while ensuring your own safety!" ”

"But in this way, won't there be no one around the third master?" He Dong frowned.

"I don't lack hands or feet, who do you want?"

Jia Cong instructed: "Don't say more, quickly take someone to join He Bei, he will be in more danger a moment later!" ”

"Yes!"

He Dong and the three of them took the blades and bows that were hanging right away and hurried away.

Looking at the backs of He Dong and the others, Jia Cong was also thinking about how to deal with this matter in the future.

Nothing to say all the way.

……

Return to Rongguo Mansion.

Because seeing that He Dong and the three of them all brought swords when they left, Daiyu Yingchun was quite worried: "Third Brother Cong, is there something wrong with the four of them?" ”

Jia Cong smiled, "It's nothing, it's just that if you encounter something temporarily, you can take an extra insurance with your blade!" ”

Daiyu said: "The third brother has something to do, just go and get busy, I can come back another day!" ”

"It's okay," Jia Cong waved his hand, "I'll tell the kitchen to prepare things in advance in the morning, let's go back now, it should be almost good!" ”

Hearing this, Daiyu and the three of them were a little relieved.

At one time, the four of them came to Jia Cong's courtyard.

When I entered the door, I saw a huge black iron box more than five feet long and about a foot wide and high placed under the tree in the courtyard, which was the barbecue grill that Jia Cong was looking for someone to make.

Inside the oven, the reddish silver frost charcoal exudes a blazing heat.

Ruyi is directing the two little maids, Xiao Tao and Xing'er, to jam a mesh shelf made of iron wire on the top, and on the table next to it, there are plates of pickled meat, fish, shrimp and vegetables.

Seeing Jia Cong and the others coming back, Ruyi and the two little maids suddenly laughed, "It's really time for the third master to come back, so we can't steal our mouths if we want to!" ”

Jia Cong also smiled, "I came back in time, isn't this just in time!" ”

"It turns out that Third Brother Cong is going to invite us to eat barbecue?"

Xichun's eyes lit up, "When it's cold, it must be very interesting to bake something around the stove and eat." ”

After that, he saw the marinated meat, fish and shrimp on the table, and a few plates of seasonings next to the barbecue grill, and said strangely: "Are these carnivorous fish and shrimp specially pickled?" It's different from what I've eaten before.

And these condiments next to it, some of which I haven't seen before! ”

While talking, he ran to the edge of the tin box in a hurry, and he was about to reach out and bluff it away.

"Fourth girl, this is not so close, in case it is burned by the silver frost charcoal inside, it is not a trivial matter!"

Yingchun hurriedly took a few steps forward and pulled Xichun away a few steps.

"Why are you still so reckless?" After a while, I will burn out a few bubbles, and I will see how stinky and beautiful you will be in the future. ”

"I just came to see these kinds of spices that I haven't seen before, and I don't reach out to touch the stove, what are you afraid of?"

Xichun said as he spoke, and he reacted, "Ao, I'm a fool in your eyes?" I don't know if this boiling stove is hot? ”

The crowd burst into laughter.
