Chapter 8 Copying the Scriptures
"The princess is here?" A muddy voice sounded, and a sharp gaze shot straight through the gauze tent, and Lin Wanwan's subconscious back broke out in a cold sweat.
Mama Cui's face changed slightly, and she was the first to walk in, not knowing what she whispered to the old lady, and the old lady was angry first.
"How dare she be so bold."
Mama Cui bowed her head again and said, "After all, she is the emperor's favorite princess." ”
The old lady was dumbfounded, and finally looked at Lin Wanwan unhappily, "Which concubine are you?" ”
Lin Wanwan bowed, "My father is Lin Zhe, the squire of the military department, and my concubine is Lin Wanwan." ”
"Oh." The old lady replied, and then spoke behind the gauze tent, "The old man has been unwell lately and needs to be served. I don't need you for the time being tonight, you can go to the ancestral hall to copy the Buddhist scriptures and pray for me. ”
It turned out that the old lady wanted someone to serve her, but the princess was unwilling, so she let her come to the top.
The days to come will certainly be indispensable, but it is much better than serving at the princess's.
After thinking about it, Lin Wanwan instantly understood and nodded, "Okay old lady." ”
Then the little maid on the side led the way, took her out of the old lady's courtyard, and walked towards the ancestral hall next to her.
On the spot, the old lady's wrinkled hand picked up the hot tea on the table, took a sip, and snorted very disdainfully, "Let's try to see if she listens or not, I'm afraid that she will be a treacherous and slippery again." ”
"Don't worry, old lady, if she doesn't work well, let the one surnamed Bai come." Mama Cui was intimately relieved, while watching the old lady add tea.
The old lady squinted, snorted coldly, and put the teacup heavily on the table, "I'm afraid that muddy boy, I'm distressed." ”
Yun Ye now looks very good to Lin Wanwan, but in fact, he is afraid that he is just using Lin Wanwan as a shield, after all, before he got married, he spoiled Bai Xin very much.
Where would she be willing to let Bai Xin serve her as an old woman.
It's just that the princess can't know about it.
Mama Cui knew it and sighed, "Everything is important to the old lady." ”
In the ancestral hall.
The ancestral hall was swishing, and candles were lit during the day, and occasionally a breeze blew from nowhere, which was even more terrifying.
The little maid attracted Lin Wanwan, and quickly slipped away, seemingly unwilling to stay longer.
Lin Wanwan is not afraid, after all, she has also been a ghost wandering for a year, and besides, she can be regarded as a half-ghost with a background.
If these "good brothers" harm her and sabotage her mission to relive her original body, the little ghost will definitely not be able to spare them.
But out of politeness and awe, she still respectfully washed her hands and kowtowed to incense, and finally saw the pile of brocade cloth on the side, and without hesitation, she picked it up and knelt on the futon.
Praying for the old lady is naturally to be sufficient, and if the old lady can be satisfied, it may help to change her fate.
Thinking about it, Lin Wanwan picked up the brush, and began to reverently copy the Dizang Sutra by candlelight.
Her expression was serious, she wrote silently, and when she kept a posture to write the last brocade cloth, the sky was already dark.
A rooster crowed and the sky crowed, wisps of mist and white light poured in front of her from the edge of the eaves, and under the pile of spiritual positions in front of her, the candle flame was dim, and only the wick and the last glimmer of light remained.
"Ahem."
She stretched her sore shoulders and back, and suddenly heard movement behind her, and hurriedly got up to look back, only to see Mama Cui helping the well-dressed old lady to walk in across the steps.
The old lady has a serious face, she is very rich and elegant in gold and silver, and she exudes a faint majesty, and she looks like she is a noble lady who has been in a high position for a long time.
She saw a pile of Buddhist scriptures that had been copied beside Lin Wanwan, and swept Lin Wanwan's bloodshot black eyes, a little surprised.
"You copied the sutras overnight?"
"Pray for the old lady, the concubine must do her best." Lin Wanwan Fu saluted, smiling and revealing the dimples on both sides of his cheeks, looking very sincere.
The old lady calmed down a little because of the princess's rising anger yesterday, and walked closer to pick up the Buddhist scriptures and looked at them, every stroke was very clean and neat, obviously copied with her heart, she was satisfied, but she didn't say it.
Raised his hand elegantly, let Mama Cui hold it, and walked out after leaving a word.
"You go to rest today, and start serving the old body tomorrow, let's say okay first, the old body is not easy to fool."
Lin Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally passed the old lady's level, but according to the memories of the original life, the old lady is not so easy to get along with, and the more difficult grinding is still to come.
She took a deep breath, held her sore and numb legs, remembered the way back little by little, and moved out of the ancestral hall.
When Lin Wanwan returned to the courtyard, there was only a bowl of white porridge on the table, and Bai Xin's maid Xiaohuan was standing next to her, her face full of arrogance.
"My young lady knows that you copied the Buddhist scriptures all night, and she has worked hard for you, so she ordered me to bring you a bowl of hot porridge, you must drink it in front of me."
Lin Wanwan knew in her heart that things were not so simple, she picked up the hot porridge with her weak legs, took off the silver hairpin on her head and tried it, it was not poisonous.
What trick is Bai Xin playing?
Retracting her thoughts, she drank the hot porridge in one gulp, it was salty, and she didn't know how much salty salt she put in. There was still some bitterness, and when it slid through my throat, I almost vomited bitterly.
Lin Wanwan forcibly held back, wiped the corners of her mouth with satisfaction afterwards, handed over the empty bowl and pretended to be grateful.
"Thank you, Sister Bai, I will definitely go to Sister Bai's room to thank you when I am free."
Xiaohuan looked at her with disdain in her eyes, feeling that Bai Xin was just too worried, how could Yun Ye fall in love with such bean sprouts, he was just a brainless idiot.
Others played with her, and she was grateful to Dade.
She arrogantly took the empty bowl, and then thought of something, and said with a bright smile, "It's good if you have a heart, my young lady has asked you to go to the artificial lake in Fuzhong at noon tomorrow to enjoy the flowers." You don't know, Shizi understands my young lady's upset, and specially dug an artificial lake for my young lady, and planted roses next to the artificial lake. However, they are all part of the house, and you can also go to see them. ”
"I see." Lin Wanwan smiled reluctantly, and then looked helpless, "I think since she is the person who can make the young general put on the tip of her heart, Sister Bai must be an excellent person, the young general likes her, I like her too, I love the house and Wuma." ”
Xiaohuan didn't expect her to react like this, and looked at Lin Wanwan in surprise, followed by a burst of disdain.
"Are you really so infatuated with Shizi?"
When Lin Wanwan mentioned Yun Ye, her eyes were bright and she smiled brightly, "That's nature." ”
"It's useless to like it, the person I love the most is my young lady, you're just a ......"
"Ahem."
Before Xiaohuan could step on Lin Wanwan's affection like this, an unhappy cough came from not far behind him.
