Looking at the direction he left, the corners of Du Jingyi's mouth couldn't help but rise, it seemed that there was going to be a good show again.

September 9, Double Ninth Day, since ancient times, there has been the custom of climbing high and looking far away, appreciating chrysanthemums and giving cakes.

In the past, there were no old people in the Du family, so basically they couldn't celebrate this festival, but now the general's mansion is different, there is an old lady Gu, so she has to let the old man feel the lively atmosphere in Sui'an City.

A day or two in advance, Du Jingyi asked Dan Ruo to make some "lion barbarians", first making steamed cakes with flour, and decorating them with various fruits, including pine nuts, ginkgo, chestnut yellow, and pomegranate seeds.

Then pinch out the shape of a lion's head with dough and put it on the cake and steam it thoroughly, and then use the paper cut flag prepared in advance to insert it, which is a must-eat cake for this Chung Yeung Festival.

Du Jingyi left some in the general's mansion and gave them to everyone in the court.

Later, in the name of Mrs. Gu, she sent a copy to the elders in the family, and two pots of cultivated "Evergreen Chrysanthemum", which were yellow and white, and the stamens looked like a lotus house, which really made people feel festive and happy when they saw it, and the meaning was excellent.

Her etiquette was exquisite and in place, and all of a sudden, the officials and nobles in Ancheng had a good impression of the General's Mansion and her, the hostess of the General's Mansion.

When the Guo family received something, they also asked someone to return a post back.

It clearly asked the ladies of the General's Mansion to go to Baoyin Temple to catch up with the fasting meeting on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, and all the matters of the Guo family have been arranged.

Seeing this, Old Madam Gu was also very happy, so she responded.

"I haven't been to Baoyin Temple for many years, so let's take a walk."

"What my grandmother said is that my granddaughter-in-law will arrange it."

So, the Guo family's carriage and horses were waiting at the gate of the General's Mansion early in the morning, and everyone in the General's Mansion also went out.

Sister-in-law Liu was also going to go, but something happened in the temporary shop, so she stayed at home, just to take care of Tai Ge'er, so that everyone could go out without worries.

When Xue Niang saw her future mother-in-law, Mrs. Guo San, she didn't have the previous twist, she was much more generous, and Mrs. Guo San also smiled happily and said to Xue Niang.

"Autumn should be supplemented, so that you can survive the winter, you don't want to wear a wedding dress, hungry every day."

Mrs. Guo's words pierced Xue Niang's heart, and she smiled a little shyly and said.

"How can Aunt Guo follow the spies in the General's Mansion, this can also be guessed?"

Mrs. Guo San smiled heartily, and then said.

"I'm also a bride, so I know that idea."

Hearing the three words of the bride, Xue Niang's heart was full of longing.

She and Guo Shilang met last time from time to time, each time it was not long, but the two always had endless words, so she was still looking forward to the upcoming married life.

Along the way, the two old ladies had something to say, Mrs. Guo San and Xue Niang also talked happily, but Du Jingyi looked at the scenery on the road and remembered a lot of things from the past.

She didn't go to the fasting party of Baoyin Temple during the Double Ninth Festival, but she still visited it on other days, and it was very lively.

The monks would sit together and talk about the Dharma, and the people would also catch the temple fair in front of the mountain temple, so it was naturally crowded.

The chariot and horse drove all the way, and after about an hour, they arrived at the Baoyin Temple.

There were many of them, and they did not follow the crowd to climb up the stairs at the foot of the mountain, but followed the road directly to the gate of the Baoyin Temple, only to see that there were already many cars and horses of the homes of dignitaries and nobles parked at the gate.

Obviously, they all came for today's fasting meeting.

The group got out of the car and drove inside, and the Guo family greeted them in advance, so there were special monks waiting to pick them up at the door, and then they went straight to the scene of the monk's scripture.

There are a few meditation rooms facing the big field, which are elegantly furnished, which are prepared for the ladies who come to listen to the meeting, and the Guo family is naturally the largest one, so it is not crowded to accommodate everyone.

After the monks had eaten the camellia and vegetarian fasts, they withdrew.

In the meditation room, only the ladies of the Guo family and the Gu family remained, Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Guo were both elderly people, so they were naturally interested in the Buddhist scriptures, so they listened with great interest, and such as Du Jingyi, they lacked some enlightenment skills, so they naturally wanted to go outside.

"Bring more servants and come back at iftar."

"Yes, grandmother."

Seeing this, Du Jingyi took Xue Niang and the fourth aunt out of the meditation room and went to the temple fair in front.

Along the way, the most curious person is Xue Niang, she rarely goes out, so she is novel to see everything, pulling Du Jingyi to ask this for a while, and asking that for a while, the fourth aunt can't help but laugh.

"There is a Lingying Temple with very strong incense inside and outside Jinling City, every time you rush to the temple fair, it is so lively, when your cousins-in-law are still there, I like to take them together, but unfortunately, such as today's side, I don't know how they are doing?"

The cousins in the mouth of the fourth aunt and mother are a total of four people.

They are all the daughters-in-law of the younger generation of the Gu family, when the Gu family all died in battle, the eldest cousin-in-law slipped the fetus, and the rest of the cousins-in-law also cried to death.

Everyone said that they wanted to be widowed for the Gu family, but Mrs. Gu disagreed.

They were in the prime of their youth, and they didn't have to be delayed day by day, so after contacting their respective families, they were all sent back.

Two of them remarried two years later, one of them went to his grandfather's house in the southwest to relax, and the other went back to his mother's ancestral house to stay, and I heard that he was going to be a husband for the girls in the family.

It can be regarded as everyone has settled, and they have not been delayed because of the Gu family's affairs.

Therefore, although the fourth aunt mentioned them with some pity, there was no regret in her words.

After Du Jingyi heard this, he also said with a lot of comfort.

"Let's not bother the two sisters-in-law who have already married, if the other two can come back, our Gu family can recognize them as godparents, and there will be generals to protect them in the future, so we won't treat these two eldest sisters badly."

Du Jingyi's proposal made the fourth aunt's eyes light up.

"What you said is reasonable, in the past, the Gu family had nothing, and keeping them was also a scourge for them, but now when Tai Ge'er goes back to worship his ancestors, this Gu family will have something to say in the future, if they recognize the Gu family, they will be able to take care of them in the future."

Not to mention anything else, that is, if they want to remarry, the Gu family should give another dowry to accompany them, if they don't marry and want to do something they like, the Gu family can also help one or two. (End of chapter)
