Empress Mi Benji

Chapter 15 Inviting God

The clear sunshine, the sun after the rain, Zhuang Xun woke up, Siqin Mi was gone, the remaining warmth, recalling the goodness of yesterday, although he didn't do anything serious, but it was the first time he consciously hugged his fragrant and soft wife Sleeping, the whole person feels happy.

The thighs and arms are still a little sore and numb, but they are much better than yesterday, and the wind and cold can't be felt anymore. People are refreshed, the blisters are not broken, but the skin has become shriveled, which is considered to be recovering.

Zhuang Xun got up and looked for Si Qin Mi, pushed open the door, and saw Si Qin Mi, neatly dressed and with her hair curled up, bending over to clean the courtyard.

"You are my wife, not a maid." Zhuang Xun stepped forward and snatched her broom.

"Lang Jun, do you have a maid?" Si Qin Mi smiled slightly.

"No, let's share the housework together." Zhuang Xun said by himself.

"Then why marry a woman?" Si Qin Mi asked back.

"Marrying a wife is for pain, to make up for one's own shortcomings, like the other half of one's own body, how can one marry a wife to use her as a maid, isn't that ridiculous." Zhuang Xun said speechlessly.

"It's the same in Yu country, but you are a different kind, sir." Si Qinmi chuckled.

"If I were a normal person, I wouldn't be able to marry you, my wife. I would rather I be busy so that you can earn some leisure." Zhuang Xun said, sweeping the dust and fallen leaves into a pile.

"It's unacceptable for Mr. Lang to show favoritism like this. The female lead is inside and the male lead is outside. Besides, have you recovered from your illness?" Si Qinmi went to pick up the broom, but Zhuang Xun didn't give it.

"The wind and cold are gone, my body is a little sore but it doesn't affect my activities, besides, what's wrong with my preference for you, can't it be painful if there is a lady?" Zhuang Xun said naturally.

In his opinion, his wife can't be worshiped like a god or Buddha, but he can't be bossed around like a master. Everyone understands and shares is the best married life.

"I'm happy to be favored by my concubine, but I can't steal my concubine's kitchen." Unable to resist Zhuang Xun's stubborn temper, Si Qinmi could only take a step back and say.

"Yeah." Zhuang Xun nodded.

Tidy up the house, it feels like home, neat and tidy, after washing, Siqin Mi has already served today's breakfast.

For breakfast this morning, Siqin Mi cooked some vegetable porridge.

"Today I'm going to invite His Majesty the Lunzhuan King, so I can only speak plain." Si Qinmi said reverently.

"Well, it's okay, I'm just curious about how eating meat in the underworld counts." Zhuang Xun said curiously.

"I don't know, but what I saw in the trial was that no one was punished for eating meat, only one was punished for wasting a lot of food, but it's always right to be in awe." Siqin Mi answered while eating rice porridge. .

"Yeah, it's like doing as Romans do." Zhuang Xun also understood, after all, who can understand the character of gods and demons, if there is something disrespectful, they won't know if they are wearing small shoes.

"In other words, how do you ask God? I don't know about it." Zhuang Xun said curiously.

"If a wealthy family would naturally hold a temple fair, offer prayers, and then do water and land rituals, our poor family doesn't need to do so many things. Just go to the Town God's Temple to pray and donate money to welcome back the statue or tablet." Si Qinmi explained to Zhuang Xun.

"Would you like to take a bath and burn incense?" Zhuang Xun was curious.

"Of course, the hot water has already been boiled for the gentleman. In the side room, the gentleman must remember that sincerity makes the spirit." Si Qinmi was thoughtful, and the preparations had already been done.

"The concubine went to buy some tributes and letters of ceremony. Didn't the lord say that he would visit Mrs. Chen's house when he recovered from his illness? No one can stand without faith. Since you have said it, you have to do it, otherwise people will think that the lord's talk is out of favor. He will talk about it." Si Qin Mi pointed at Zhuang Xun and said.

"I understand, please God today, let's go tomorrow." Zhuang Xun nodded in understanding.

In the side room, towels, clean clothes, and hot water are arranged in an orderly manner, which is pleasing to the eye. Zhuang Xun's mood at this moment is very grateful to the king of rotation. This kind of wife is no longer lucky, she has won the first prize .

After taking a bath in the side room, Si Qinmi came out of the side room and leaned over to tidy up Zhuang Xun's clothes.

"Didn't the lady go to buy tribute gifts?" Zhuang Xun stood up straight and accepted Si Qin Mi's arrangement.

She is close, and she can see her flawless dimple, her gentle temperament is inclusive and mature, and she has a sense of stability and comfort. She is slightly taller than Zhuang Xun, but she is like a big sister who is crowning her younger brother, not quite Like a newlywed couple.

"The lord who wants to see off his concubine goes out. How can the concubine move without moving when the lord has not moved." Si Qin Mi smoothed the folds of Zhuang Xun's clothes.

"There's no need to be so disciplined, and our family doesn't have such disciplines." Although Zhuang Xun enjoyed being doted on by Si Qin Mi, he didn't want to see her being so humble.

"Then I have it now. I want to be a good wife of your lord." Si Qinmi was just practicing the education she had received.

"You are good enough, no matter how good I am, I don't know how to face you." Zhuang Xun hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to shake her hand.

"Xun really likes it in my heart, I am touched, thank you lady." Zhuang Xun affirmed her actions, a woman needs to praise you for being good to you.

"It's just my duty, why should my lord..."

"How many people do their duty? Everyone can do their duty. How can this be the case in Yu Country? Right things should be praised and rewarded, and wrong things should be criticized and punished. I praise my lady, my lady. Just accept it if you are happy." Zhuang Xun cut off Si Qin Mi's words.

"The concubine understands, what the lord said is true." He didn't argue with Zhuang Xun either, and smiled without showing his teeth, as if bringing a kind wind.

"I'm going out." Zhuang Xun bid farewell to Si Qinmi at the door, feeling that life had hope, and he somewhat understood why men would work so hard after getting married.

"Lang Jun, go slowly." Si Qin Mi shook the handkerchief lightly, and did not return home until Zhuang Xun disappeared from sight, packed up her clothes and went out.

There are many people in Chenghuang Temple, which is no wonder. The more troubled times are, the more superstitious the gods and Buddhas are.

Just in time for the congee giving at the Town God's Temple today, and there were so many people, Zhuang Xun regretted coming today, looking at the crowd, he felt unavoidably powerless.

"Zhuang Xiaolian, if you want to offer incense, please come with me and go to the side hall." An elegant scribe reminded Zhuang Xun.

"Thank you, I'm sorry, but if you dare to ask your surname, how did you know Xun?" Zhuang Xun thanked first, then said cautiously.

"He Zheng, a scholar in Xia'antai County, and Zhuang Xiaolian have become famous, and how many people in Yindu Mansion don't know Xiaolian." The scribe said with his hands clasped.

"It's just a filial piety, a reputation as a scholar." Zhuang Xun didn't answer this question, he should have borrowed a carriage to get to know him a few days ago.

"There is a difference between a scholar and a scholar, and there is also a difference between a filial piety and a filial piety. Xiaolian is the filial piety of the Yindu Mansion. He can enjoy the sixth-rank official title when he becomes an official. The Yindu Mansion can only recommend two people a year." He Xiucai Quite envious said.

"I don't know about the truth." Zhuang Xun was vigilant, he was courteous for nothing, he was either rape or robbery, he had just acquired the status of filial piety, and someone contacted him, how could he not be on guard.

"I'm entering the hall from now on. I still have some urgent matters. I look forward to meeting Xiaolian again at the Longevity Banquet." Seeing that Zhuang Xun was wary of himself, He Zheng didn't bother to leave.

"Thank you, brother, for your guidance. Let's meet again at the Longevity Banquet." Zhuang Xun also clasped his fists, thinking about what the Longevity Banquet is.

Entering the temple, unlike the hustle and bustle outside, the Chenghuang Temple was relatively quiet, so Zhuang Xun stopped thinking.

Empty his mind, and respectfully burn incense to thank King Lunzhuan for the marriage. He really likes Siqin Mi very much now, and it almost satisfies all his good impressions of a good wife and mother.

Zhuang Xun, who was praying, became a little dizzy, and a young man in full clothes appeared in front of him.
