Chapter 16 Trivia of Linjiang Building
On the eighth day of April, Shakyamuni Buddha was born. Legend has it that Shakyamuni Buddha was born from his mother's right rib when he was born, and when he was born, he was full of fragrance, and he could walk when he landed, and he could walk seven steps forward, and he would become a Buddha step by step. Therefore, on April 8 every year, Daolin Temple will hold a Dharma meeting, invite the bronze statue of Shakyamuni Buddha, bathe in the river water, all the women compete to offer money, and organize the release of life, it is the Buddha bathing festival.
In the afternoon, Xie Jiang returned to Linjiang Tower in the light rain. There is no time to eat, and the Linjiang Building is already full, all of which are those who come to Daolin Temple to worship the Buddha and release the life on behalf of the master of the family. Because many old ladies did not come on rainy days, they just made some people come to worship the Buddha, but it is also to express their hearts, if the Buddha knows, I believe that it will also bless these sincere believers. You Xiyun and Lu He also sat at the same table, and the eldest lady was also there, and it seemed that they were very familiar with each other last night.
"Xie Xiaoer, come and pour tea," when he saw Xie Jiang coming back, he shouted to pick paintings.
"Second Brother You is good," Xie Jiang glanced inside the building, and went over to say hello, Brother Xiaowu was not in the hall, there were so many guests, he might be busy in the back, "You are all here!"
"Xiao Er, where did you go to be lazy, why did you come now?"
"I'm going to go to morning class. ”
"Where are you going to do morning class? Say, say, don't tell me you're going to study!"
"Xie Jiang, Brother Xiao Wu is busy in the back, you can also go to the back and take a look," someone in the building shouted.
"Okay," Xie Jiang seized the opportunity to escape from the painting.
"Hey, you haven't answered me yet, Dead Crane, do you know where he did his morning class?"
"I don't know," Lu He snickered as he watched the paintings.
Xie Jiang came to the kitchen at the back of the building and saw that everyone was busy. Washing vegetables and steaming rice, Brother Xiaowu is brushing snails. Xie Jiang ran over and shouted, "Brother Xiaowu, let me brush it, there are many people in front, you go to the front to say hello." ”
"Okay, you come and brush, and when you're done, you'll come to the front, you should be busy tonight." ”
"Got it," Xie Jiang also knew, these days are indeed so busy.
Brushing snails is simple and simple, and the loofah can clean up all the sediment on it with a brush, but in Linjiang Building, every snail is required to be brushed until there is no moss, which is a bit troublesome and requires a brush one by one. And the current snails are not big, and almost every one of them has to be pinched.
Xie Jiang is not busy, brushing one by one, but he is very proud in his heart, thinking about today's events is really wonderful. "The old master of Huangfu is willing to teach me swordsmanship, and I can also become a swordsman in the future, no, it's a swordsman, like Second Brother You, Liu Liangongzi, wow! Thinking about it, Xie Jiang's mouth bent into the moon, "Mr. Huangfu's sword looks very powerful, if he teaches me swordsmanship, it will definitely be amazing, hahaha, I must study it seriously, practice swordsmanship very well, let Lu He, this kid star, and make the family happy, and collect paintings, if I win Second Brother You, let this girl worship, hahaha." ”
"Where am I going to find a sword? There seems to be a blacksmith shop over there in the Chenghuang Temple, I don't know if there is a sword for sale, I don't know how much it costs! There is also a blacksmith shop on the side of the currency gate of Tanzhou City, by the way, there is a sword for sale there, go and see how the price is, and how can I find my own sword? Hehe, maybe I can pick one up tomorrow morning when I go out! Hahaha!"
"I'm going to become a swordsman, a great swordsman, once I practice diligently, maybe I can challenge the first sword in Tanzhou, and then I will be beautiful. ”
"Xie Jiang, what are you smiling at? Why is it so slow to brush a snail?" someone shouted next to him.
"Oh," Xie Jiang finally came back to his senses, and it was good to daydream once in a while. When he came to the hall, there were more people, although the rain was not heavy, and there were many people who were crowded under the eaves to hide from the rain, including many beggars. Picking paintings and talking and laughing at You Xiyun, Lu He drooped his face beside him, playing with the dishes and chopsticks on the table with both hands, looking at him is two words: boring. Xie Jiang brought a teapot over to add water, and Lu He seemed to come to life immediately.
"What are you doing in the back, for so long?"
"There was a lot of things to do in the back kitchen. ”
"Little Er, why did you come out again," there are always so many problems with painting
"I'm going to come out to do something too, when did you leave last night?"
"It's not too late, after you left, I listened to my father-in-law talk about the situation of those Jianghu people and left. You haven't told me how yesterday's fight went?"
Xie Jiang glanced at You Xiyun, and You Xiyun was also looking at him. Xie Jiang saw that You Xiyun didn't speak, so he said: "What did you say about the fight that day! Didn't your stepfather talk very much yesterday, I was in the tea shop yesterday, and they fought outside the tea shop, so I didn't dare to go outside to watch." ”
"Cut, coward, are you still hiding under the table?" teased him.
"Little Er, come to the pot of wine. ”
"Okay!" As soon as Cai Hua spoke, Xie Jiang was a little short-circuited, and when he saw someone calling, he immediately ran over.
Suddenly, there was silence, and everyone looked at the gate. Xie Jiang also looked over, but it was two people wearing cloaks who got off the carriage in front of the door. Because of the rain, although it was only a few steps from getting out of the car to the door, the person wearing a green cloak who got out of the car first still held an umbrella, and a person wearing a big red cloak came down behind. The dark cloak wrapped the two people tightly, and they couldn't see their faces at all, but the bewitching figure, the big ass that shook when they walked, no wonder everyone was quiet. The two of them came into the store, shook off the rain on their sleeves, and put down their cloaks, they were really two beautiful women with graceful figures.
"Miss Fleur, why are you free to come here today!"
"Hey, it's the Hibiscus girl from Hibiscus House. ”
"Is Furong House closed today?"
"Miss Fleur is so beautiful today!"
"Miss Fleur is here to find a man, hahaha!"
At first, everyone coaxed, but after listening to the latter sentence, it was different, everyone stared at the person who said this sentence at the end, this is not blasphemy against this Furong girl, and immediately this person was embarrassed. It's really bottomless for a bunch of big men to coax. Xie Jiang looked over and was really taken aback, it turned out that these two people were yesterday's Furong girl and Xiangling.
"What kind of coaxing are you doing, ho ho ho, don't go to Furong Lou to have fun, run here to drink tea, don't like Furong anymore?"
"Where, Miss Furong is the most popular person in our Tanzhou City, how can she not like it!
"Yes, yes!"
"Yes, ho-ho-ho, then you guys are going to Furong Tower to have a show these two nights, especially tomorrow when there are big people in Furong Lou to play, everyone has to go and have a good time." ”
"Which big man is it? Can you tell me first?"
