Chapter 70: The Whole Family is Feasting

Qiao's family has a noble status, and the Zen room where he stays is naturally above the first class.

As soon as Qiao Wanshu entered the door, she couldn't help but let out a "wow" again.

Different from the simple and quiet meditation room in her impression, the decoration here is more rich and luxurious than the meditation room in her prime minister's house.

The incense burner carved from ivory is filled with green smoke, and the whole statue of the emperor is a statue of Guanyin who planted jade jade and jade Maitreya and good Hetian sheep fat jade.

The bed is covered with a quilt of silk brocade, and the quilt is embroidered on both sides of the tribute level.

Even the four treasures of the study room are the most expensive brands in various places.

The feeling that this meditation room gives her is that it is jeweled and rich!

When Mrs. Qiao looked at Qiao Wanshu's eyes, there was only a piece of golden ingots swirling, and she immediately smiled and squinted, and quipped: "Every time Shu'er sees jewelry and jade, her eyes are straight." ”

"But you're dazzled by the riches here?"

Qiao Wanshu nodded and shook her head again.

It's not that she hasn't seen the world, and the Qiao family's wealth is only a lot more than here.

It's just that, with such an extravagant arrangement, is this still a quiet place for Buddhism?

When Mrs. Qiao heard her heart, she was afraid that she would be misled and have some disrespectful thoughts, so she hurriedly explained through the introduction of what she had just said: "Shu'er, you must know that it is not only ordinary people who come to the temple to make incense. ”

"There are many princes and nobles, rich businessmen and magnates."

"They often take out their wealth and jewelry to donate to the temple, and over time, they also gather sand into a tower, and accumulate a lot."

Of course, Qiao Wanshu also understood these truths, so she listened a little absent-mindedly.

[To accumulate so much wealth, Master Hongzhen really has a few brushes. 】

[The face is also amazing, very good! ] Can...... This can't stop him from eating people! 】

[Think about it, the most famous person who was eaten by him should be Feng Shizi of the Chengdong Mansion! ] 】

Old Madam Qiao's heart was shocked.

She had heard about this case at that time.

Back then, Feng Shizi went to Fulong Temple to make incense, listened to Master Hongzhen's lectures, and actually came up with the idea of becoming a monk.

Immediately after writing a letter to his family, he wanted to settle down in Fulong Temple.

I heard that Master Hongzhen said that he was not destined for the dust, so it was better to lead the practice in the temple, and then become a monk after the fate of the dust.

Since then, he has remained in the monastery, and occasionally has letters sent back to the country's government.

Is it really as Shu'er said, it was eaten?

She felt a chill in her heart inexplicably, and suddenly felt that the green smoke curling in front of her eyes, burning the fire candle, also seemed a little calm.

There was a sudden noise outside the meditation room, interrupting Old Madam Qiao's thoughts.

She walked to the door and opened the door, and suddenly two people came in.

If it weren't for the quick reaction and jumped out, I was afraid that I would hit Old Madam Qiao.

She took a closer look, and it was Qiao Jingchen and Qiao Jingyue who blocked the door just now.

"Jingchen, Jingyue, why don't you go back to your meditation room, what are you blocking my door and shouting?"

Qiao Wanshu also followed, and under the support of the Chen family and the nurse, she stumbled over, looked at the door, and shouted with a smile: "Ancestor! ”

The old lady looked at it fixedly, and then found that there was also an old general Chen, who was sitting cross-legged at the door with a long knife in his arms.

"Father-in-law, you ...... What do you guys do here? ”

Old Madam Qiao was completely speechless.

The two grandsons are just strange in their words and deeds, why is this old general, who has always been calm and dignified, also a little strange.

"Grandmother, isn't it that we have recently heard that there are many bandits and bandits in the mountains, so we are worried about the safety of you, your mother, and Shu'er. So it's decided that it's better to stay at your door. ”

Qiao Jingyue's brain was relatively fast, and he immediately came up with a good excuse.

A young novice who came to deliver vegetarian snacks said with a sad face: "Ladies and gentlemen, the meditation rooms of the male and female pilgrims in this temple are separated, and it is really unruly to get together like this. ”

"And there are monks and monks in this temple, which can completely protect the pilgrims."

Qiao Jingchen said: "After all, I only have such a sister, which grandmother and mother are not close relatives?" ”

"I can't entrust their safety to others."

So the dispute started again, and before Mrs. Qiao could speak, she saw Master Hongzhen floating in with a group of monks.

"General Qiao's words, the little monk heard it, and he could understand it."

"It's human nature to care about your beloved. As long as you don't violate the precepts of Buddhism, some rules are not incompatible. ”

"Since you are really worried, then I will wronged you tonight, and set up a tent in this courtyard to rest."

His voice was extremely magnetic, even if he was just talking about ordinary things, it was like he was preaching the scriptures, and it had a strange persuasive power.

Qiao Wanshu hid behind the legs of her eldest brother Qiao Jingchen, and only poked out half of her little head, just in front of Master Shanghongzhen's smiling eyes.

She felt a chill in her heart, and said secretly: [It's broken! Isn't that what I look in my eyes when I see a delicious meal? 】

[Could it be that not only am I the target of his plate, but even my grandmother and them? 】

[I want to make a table!] 】

In a word, everyone in the Qiao family became panicked with the hearts of the people.

Although it feels absurd no matter how you hear it, all the things Qiao Wanshu has said so far have been fulfilled one by one.

It is impossible for them not to secretly raise their vigilance.

Soon, General Chen and others set up a simple tent in the courtyard.

But no matter whether it is people inside or outside the house, they are destined to have no sleep tonight.

No matter what you have in mind, you still have to follow the original plan of coming to the temple.

Mrs. Qiao took the ladies into the incense to make vows and listen to the scriptures.

Time flew by, and soon, night fell.

Qiao Wanshu has been holding on and refusing to sleep, no matter who it is, it is useless.

Even if she was so sleepy that she kept nodding her head, she had to support her eyelids with her fingers.

It's just that she was still young, and she didn't last long, so she fell asleep on the pillow, and even snored shallowly.

Old Madam Qiao tossed and turned, and what Qiao Wanshu had said during the day always echoed in her mind.

Suddenly, she heard someone whispering in the courtyard, and a swaying figure was reflected in the window.

Anyway, she couldn't sleep peacefully, so Old Madam Qiao decided to go for a walk in the yard.

She got out of bed with her clothes on, walked to the door and just opened the door, she saw Qiao Jingchen suddenly pull out her sword and shouted: "Who! ”

Old Madam Qiao was taken aback, and frowned: "Jingchen, why are you so frizzy!" ”

Qiao Jingchen hurriedly put away his sword and apologized, and asked tentatively: "Grandmother, why didn't you sleep and came out?" ”

Of course, Old Madam Qiao couldn't say that she couldn't sleep because she heard Qiao Wanshu's heart.

She saw that Old General Chen and Qiao Jinghan also came out of the tent, so she suddenly came up with an excuse.

"Jingchen, have you ever heard some rumors about Master Hongzhen?"

"I've heard of it among some noble ladies before, and I always think that nothing will come out of nowhere."
