Marrying into a poor family

Su Shi calmed down and walked out. Xiao Lan hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

The third aunt hurriedly took two steps forward and asked, "How's it going? Are you sure?"

"Accurate, very accurate." Mrs. Su smiled and said: "I didn't even say who I was, but the Living Bodhisattva explained my affairs clearly. Even my daughter's affairs were known. It was indeed a revelation. A living Bodhisattva with celestial eyes.”

When the third aunt heard this, she also echoed a few words of praise, and said that it was too late today, and she would come and take a look when she was free in a few days.

After Mrs. Su returned home, she didn't mention anything about the living Bodhisattva. She only said that she spent money to buy a long banner to pray for a son.Qin Xiang saw that she looked good, so she didn't think much about it. Although she didn't believe in begging for a son, as long as her mother was happy, it didn't matter if she spent some money.

However, after dinner, Xiaozhu came with Li Siniang.

"What's the matter?" Qin Xiang knew that Xiaozhu and Xiaoju were the maids arranged by Li Siniang for her mother, and they must be talking about her mother's affairs now.

Li Siniang said: "Xiao Zhu came to me and told me that after the old lady went to Guanyin Temple today, she also went to another place."

"Oh? Why didn't my mother say anything?" Qin Xiang was combing her hair. Hearing this, she held the comb in her hand and turned to look at Xiaozhu.

Xiaozhu hurriedly told about Su's visit to the old nun. Qin Xiang's nails slowly scratched the tips of the comb teeth, making a slight clicking sound.

"Do you think there's something wrong with that old nun?" Qin Xi asked Xiaozhu.

"I don't know, but I just noticed that after the old lady came out, her eyes were red. She must have cried, but the old lady pretended to be nonchalant and told us not to tell my wife or anyone else. I was afraid that something would go wrong, so I I would like to inform my wife."

"You are right. If you are unsure about something, it is best to ask others." Qin Xiang asked Li Siniang to reward Xiaozhu, and then asked her to observe the old lady carefully. If there is anything wrong with the old lady, she can go to Li Siniang or Own.

After Xiaozhu left, Li Siniang stepped forward and took the comb to comb Qin Xiang's hair. Seeing Qin Xiang staring at the bronze mirror, actually in a daze, she asked: "Madam, are you worried about the old lady? Logically speaking, it doesn't matter to count faces? It's not a big deal? Some people have some pointers, but some people don’t, it’s just nonsense to get some food.”

"I asked my mother how she was doing today. She only told me about the Guanyin Temple begging for a son for me, but she didn't mention it." You are so good, why did you hide it from me?
Li Siniang paused while combing her hair, then continued combing it. Qin Xiang's long hair was very smooth and shiny, but it took a long time to comb it through from the beginning.

"How about I go take a look tomorrow and see if this old nun is a human or a ghost?"

Qin Xi thought for a while and said, "I asked my mother before to see what she heard before making any plans."

Aunt Sang was afraid that her illness would be passed on to Mrs. Su, so she moved to a nearby courtyard in the morning. Mrs. Su's back room was separated by a screen and a Buddhist niche was set up. At this time, Mrs. Su was kneeling on the futon and reciting. Scripture.

"Mother!" Qin Xiang came in, lit an incense stick, and bowed before looking at Su: "Mother, let's go for a walk in the yard."

Mrs. Su was happy that her daughter came to accompany her, but she was also afraid that her daughter would notice something, so her eyes dodged.

From this alone, Qin Xiang could conclude that the Su family was hiding something from her.

"Mom, are you hiding something from me?" Qin Xi held her mother's arm, stood still and asked coldly.

"How can I hide anything from you? Besides, I am your mother, how can you speculate on her without any reason?" Su Shi took a rare hard breath and pushed Qin Xiang away: "It's night, I'm going to bed. You also go back and rest."

"Mother, you know, every step I take is extremely difficult. I hope mother will tell me everything and discuss it with me, and don't make any decisions on her own." Qin Xiang lost some restraint in front of her mother and spoke very directly. , because Su Shi seems to be weak, but in fact she is a bit stubborn. If she doesn't speak more seriously, she won't listen.

Su frowned, her eyes flickered, and finally shook her head.

"Mom, what did the old nun say?" Qin Xiang pointed out clearly.

Su Shi was shocked and asked quickly: "How do you know?" Then she said clearly: "Yes, the people who came with me must have told you. I told them not to say it, not to say it, but in the end Well, huh, no one listens to me."

Su felt as if a basin of water had been poured on her in the middle of winter, and she suddenly felt very cold: "On the surface, they shouted affectionately, old lady, old lady, listen, it sounds so nice. In fact, who takes me seriously? If it weren't for you, I don’t know which corner it is in.”

"Mom, it's not like that. Everyone is worried about you. You see, even if you don't tell me, how can I feel at ease?" Qin Xi softened her voice and continued to persuade Su.

But Su became very angry for the first time and pushed Qin Xi out, saying only that she was going to sleep.

Qin Xiang turned around and left with a gloomy face, and said to Li Siniang, who also felt that something was not good. "Go and prepare. I will go there in person tomorrow morning. I want to see what this 'living Bodhisattva' said."

"It doesn't matter if it's money fraud, but when I look at my mother like this, I'm afraid it's not about the money." Qin Xiang added.

Li Siniang agreed and turned around to arrange travel vehicles and so on.

Early the next morning, Qin Xi told Liu Xi to watch the Xiangfang, and she set off with Li Siniang, Xiaolan, Xiaozhu, and Lanhua. The driver was Qiao Dazhuang, and Zhang Lao Er and Zhang Lao San followed behind.

Today, Qin Xiang had specially dressed up. She was wearing a spring-dyed brocade dress with golden flower and bird patterns, and a golden glow-colored pleated skirt. She still had an incense stick with fragrant beads on her waist. She had two jade bracelets on her left wrist and one on her right wrist. Rosary beads.There are only jade hairpins and beads made of pearls on her head, but you can tell that they are extraordinary at a glance.

Even Li Siniang and the maids were dressed beautifully. They looked like family members of a wealthy family going out, and pedestrians on the road looked sideways and avoided them.

When they arrived at the old nun's courtyard, Qin Xiang got off the carriage, looked around, smiled, and said, "It's a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, which is quite suitable for spiritual cultivation."

Li Siniang also looked around, without saying much, and followed Qin Xiang forward.

A little nun had already come out and saluted Qin Xiang: "Donor, what are you doing here?"

"Can't you see what I'm here for?" Qin Xiang raised her chin and spoke very arrogantly, almost breathing out of her nose.

The little nun frowned slightly, then let go: "Donor, my master won't see any guests today. I hope the benefactor will be considerate and come back another day!"

"No guests? Why no guests? Do you not want to see everyone, or do you not want to see me?" Qin Xiang folded her arms and her face turned cold, as if I was not easy to talk to.

Seeing this spoiled rich lady, the little nun was a little frightened, but she still pursed her lips to prevent Qin Xiang from entering.

"I came all the way and didn't even see my teacher's wife. I still have to be laughed to death when I go back. Rather than being laughed at, it's better to offend my teacher's wife. I'll donate more sesame oil money later as an apology. "

After saying that, Li Siniang raised her chin to Li Siniang, and then she called Xiaolan and Xiaozhu to come forward, and they both moved the little nun aside.

Before the little nun could roar in anger, Qin Xiang had already entered the room.

Another little nun came out and saw that she could not stop Qin Xiang, so she had to say: "What are you doing? Why don't you let go of my junior sister quickly?"

Qin Xiang waved his hand, and Xiaolan and Xiaozhu immediately let go and quickly walked behind Qin Xiang.

"This donor can go in if he wants, but he can only go in alone." The tall and thin nun said to Qin Xiang in a cold voice.

"I have been delicate and delicate since I was a child, and I cannot do without the service of maids. I can only ask the Living Bodhisattva to be considerate." Qin Xiang raised her slender jade fingers and gently held her hair, making a delicate gesture, but her eyes were gentle. His words were very cold and arrogant.
