Houmen's concubine

Chapter 92 Tianlong Temple

The foot of the mountain of Tianlong Temple was full of horse-drawn carriages, and the believers who came to offer incense and worship were bustling, very lively.

There are many business burdens on both sides of the foot of the mountain, selling ingots, candles, incense sticks and the like, and many people gather around to pick them.

Looking to the top of the mountain, you can see the curling white smoke in the temple, rising and floating away.

Tianlong Temple seems to be hidden in the clouds and mist, the weather is clear, and the top of the white wall is exposed in the clouds and mist.

The mountain road slopes into a big slope, and you can see the continuous gray stone steps above.

Wang Tong'er took out her own face scarf that was not easy to be blown off by the wind, put it on, and climbed the winding stone steps up the mountain.

It took nearly half an hour to go up the mountain, stopping and going, and I blamed Wang Tong'er for being too weak.

Her previous body would have left them far behind.

I think my elder brother took her to climb Mount Tai to watch the sunrise, and I went to Tianyun Mountain Scenic Area with my classmates and friends to walk the glass path.

That's a thrill...

In addition, the mountains there are jagged, densely forested, beautiful peaks, picturesque and uncanny, with wide vision, beautiful scenery and unobstructed views of the beautiful mountains.

Due to the practice of Tianlong Temple, many noble ladies and concubines came to the temple. All the wives and concubines are boudoir women.

Finally entered the gate of the temple, an antique temple, in the courtyard there is a tall and sturdy tree with luxuriant leaves, and the whole tree is full of vibrant green.

The tree is covered with red silk, and there are countless wooden signs hanging from the red silk, which seem to be the wishes made by tourists in front of the Buddha.

Amid the sound of eminent monks chanting scriptures and knocking on wooden fish, Wang Tonger kowtowed in front of the temple Bodhisattva along with the crowd.

Granny Chen followed her, whenever Wang Tong'er knelt on the mat and kowtowed, she put copper coins into the merit box with keen eyesight.

When Zhike monk led them all to add sesame oil money, Wang Tong'er saw that Shen Mengxi and Xie Yuwan both added 200 taels of silver.

She thought that since she was of a low status, she couldn't surpass them.

He took out 150 taels of silver bills from the interlayer of the small bag and handed them to the Zhike monk.

After donating the sesame oil money, a young monk came to lead them to the vegetarian hall to eat vegetarian food.

Wang Tong'er's legs were still shaking when she sat in the dining hall, and the expressions of the others were not much better.

After the meal, a young monk in light blue robes was already waiting at the entrance of the Zhaitang to salute them and lead them to a wing in the backyard to rest for a while.

Open the door and enter, the sandalwood is brewing, the ground is spotless, tables, chairs and coffee tables are all available, and the tea is warm.

"Isn't this too crude? How can Miss Ben rest?" Xie Yuwan disliked that there was only a small wing room, and there was only a small bed and a bed in it.

The little monk who led the way clasped his hands together and explained: "I'm sorry, benefactor, the other courtyards have been reserved in advance by the benefactor who came earlier."

The little monk said in his heart: If it weren't for the money you paid for the sesame oil, I'm afraid this wing room wouldn't even exist.

"What? Who are they? Are there any officials from our family?" Xie Yuwan, who really deserved her reputation as a savage, asked sharply.

"Our lady is the daughter of the Hou family, and this is Miss Yushijia. Why don't you hurry up and help our lady rearrange her resting place?" Hongmei, the girl next to Xie Yuwan, hurriedly stood up to reveal her identity.

The little monk had no choice but to tell them, "I'm sorry for the two eldest ladies, there are Princess Pingqing and the monarch in those courtyards, there is the wife of General Xu and his daughter-in-law, and there is the wife of Prime Minister Song..."

When Xie Yuwan heard this, everyone of these people was either of much higher status than her own family, or had a similar status to her own family, and they were all masters she dared not provoke.

If this was a few months ago, she would have been arrogant. Since she experienced a quarrel with the monarch of the Pingqing Wang family, she was not only punished for copying scriptures in the ancestral hall, but also grounded for more than a month.

So, just swallow this breath obediently.

The gentle and gentle Shen Mengxi said to the little monk in a gentle voice, "Please trouble little master, I don't need you here, go do your own work!"

While talking, Shen Mengxi winked and asked the girl beside her, Chun Xiushang, to give the little monk a silver key.

"Thank you, thank you lady." The little monk joyfully took the silver key from Chunxiu's hand and walked away quickly.

Xie Yuwan's face was full of displeasure, she climbed the mountain road for a long time, and kowtowed to the Bodhisattva many times, besides, it was the season of spring sleepiness, how could this small wing room rest?She still has to rest for a while and go to the back mountain to enjoy the scenery!

Xie Yuwan went in and sat down in Ruantao, and the maid squatted down to beat her legs.

She has long heard that the mountain behind Tianlong Temple has a unique scenery, the mountain is full of fruit trees, and the Yangtze River is at the foot of the mountain.

Looking from the mountain to the river, the water mist is vast, and the lonely sail is faint...

Wang Tong'er knew that she had nothing to do in this wing room, so how could she rest if the bed collapsed?
So, she said to Xie Yuwan and Shen Mengxi: "Second Miss, Miss Shen, the servant girl will not disturb your rest, go outside for a stroll."

"Well, let's go!" Xie Yuwan was annoyed, and waved at her impatiently.

However, Shen Mengxi smiled slightly at Wang Tong'er, and said in a gentle voice: "Let me accompany Miss Tong'er to go to the back mountain for a stroll first."

Didn't Wang Tong'er originally want to get close to Shen Mengxi, and she wanted to keep her away, for fear of suffering her dark disadvantage.Hearing her suggestion, she immediately declined and said: "Ms. Shen should rest with the second miss, and the servant girl can just go for a stroll by herself."

"It's okay." After finishing speaking, Shen Mengxi stood up and took the two girls, one by one, out.

Xie Yuwan glanced at Shen Mengxi and said, "Aren't you tired?"

Shen Mengxi smiled comfortingly at her, and said: "It's okay, you can rest at ease for a while, Miss Tong'er and I will wait for you in the back mountain."

"Well, okay." Xie Yuwan yawned, nodded and said.

"Hey!" Seeing that she insisted on going out with her, Wang Tong'er sighed in her heart, that's all she could do.

Shen Mengxi is dressed brightly today. On the top is a pair of narrow-sleeved gowns with light pink peony flowers on the top, and on the bottom is a grass-green skirt sewn with beads, which makes her skin radiant and snowy, making her delicate and charming.

Wang Tong'er stood with her, properly dressed as a nouveau riche.

Thanks to her stunning face, no matter what clothes she wears, she can hold up well, and she is no less impressive in front of Shen Mengxi.

Since it is noon, everyone is resting, and there are not many tourists enjoying the scenery.

The further you go to the back, the farther away you are from the sound of people, and it becomes much quieter at once, only the rustling of the wind blowing through the tender green linden leaves, and the chirping of birds.

The quaint gate in the backyard of the temple was not locked, so Chunxiu went up to push the door, and turned sideways to let her lady in first.

Wang Tong'er then stepped out of the threshold of the temple, and was stunned by the beautiful scenery in front of her.

　Xie Yuwan is worthy of her domineering 'good name', and she never forgets to be superior to others wherever she goes: Does their family have Miss Ben's family official?
　　Shen Mengxi, who is always gentle, kind and virtuous, has a high attitude, not only embarrassing the little monk, but also rewarding him with a silver pear.
