Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 37
Chen Ruyu was the happiest one after hearing the news.With her temperament, it is not easy to be able to bear the anger and learn the rules and attend classes honestly every day.Mao Tongtong was also happy.She was fully prepared to stay in the back house this year, but she didn't expect to have the opportunity to go out.Although she has never fallen in love with people who worship Buddha, it is better than the square sky above her head.

At the end of spring, the sun was shining brightly, and it was a little dazzling in the morning.Su took the Chen sisters and Mao Tongtong and set off.

I went to Guangji Temple in the suburbs of Beijing.Naturally, the incense here is not as good as Tanzhe Temple, the first royal temple, but there are also many ordinary people who burn incense and worship Buddha here, and it is said that it is also very effective.

Every year around the Dragon Boat Festival, the Su family comes here to pray for the whole family.This year Mao Tongtong was here, she couldn't be alone without her, so they came together.

After getting out of the carriage, the sight suddenly became wider, and even the air was much fresher.

The temple is halfway up the mountain, and it is difficult to go up by carriage, so it can only be walked.Mao Tongtong stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up. It was so dark that there were many people.

"Emiang, there seem to be more people today than in previous years." Chen Ruzhu said.

"Yes, the incense here is getting stronger and stronger." Su's face showed a devout look.

Mao Tongtong was noncommittal, believe it or not, all in one thought.But having faith is not a bad thing. In many cases, people are very weak. Only with the support of faith can we be stronger.

"Let's go, it will be hot when the sun gets bigger." Su Shi said, and walked up the mountain first.

The Chen sisters followed closely behind, and Mao Tongtong also hurriedly followed.

This mountain road is not steep, there are paved stone steps, and it is easy to walk up slowly.There are lush green bamboos on both sides of the mountain road, and the mountain breeze blows slowly, which blows away the heat.

After walking for about half an hour on the mountain road, the gate of the temple appeared in front of us.Mao Tongtong wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, and looked up.The gate of this temple is not high, but the three characters Guangji Temple are written vigorously and powerfully.

"Third sister, follow up quickly." Chen Ruzhu in front turned around and urged.

"Oh." Mao Tongtong responded, and stepped in together.

She came here with the mentality of sightseeing, so she looked around all the way, and when she came to her senses, she found that she was separated from Mrs. Su and the others.

Today, Taohua and Hehua didn't follow her because it was not appropriate to bring too many people with her.And the two servant girls who came out to serve followed Su Shi and the others.At this moment, she was alone.

She didn't panic.The temple is only so big, Su Shi and the others must go to the main hall if they want to worship Buddha.Those who can't see her for a while will naturally send someone to look for her.With this time, she can walk around as she pleases.

She had never been to a temple in her previous life, so everything she saw was novel in this meeting.Before I knew it, I walked out of the temple and arrived at the back mountain.

The view of the back mountain is very wide, and there is no obstruction in the distance.There is a big thick pine tree by the side of the mountain, and there are stone tables and stone benches under the tree.Mao Tongtong was tired from walking, so he planned to go to have a rest.

The stone bench was a bit cold, but she felt comfortable sitting on it.The mountain breeze is blowing, with a touch of rosin, which is really rare and pleasant.

"Mom, let's go and have a seat." Someone's voice came from not far away.

Mao Tongtong turned around to look, with a surprised expression on his face, it was Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Sirui!

Zhang Sirui also saw her over there, and was also surprised.Then Mrs. Zhang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's really a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Hello, Mrs. Zhang." Mao Tongtong got up and said.

"I haven't seen you for more than a month. Miss Mao looks good. Why are you here alone, Mrs. Guard?" Mrs. Zhang asked with a smile.

"My mother-in-law should be in Yangzhou now." Mao Tongtong replied, "I came out with my aunt to offer incense."

"Did your aunt treat you badly, and leave you here alone by offering incense?" Zhang Sirui sneered a little.

"Sirui!" Mrs. Zhang turned around and gave a soft shout, looking at Mao Tongtong apologetically.

Mao Tongtong smiled lightly, and replied: "It's none of your business whether it's good or bad! I don't need you to worry about it."

"I'm too lazy to worry about you!" Zhang Sirui raised her head disdainfully.

Mrs. Zhang saw that the two of them were about to quarrel again, so she hurriedly asked, "Madam Mao lost her way? Do you want me to accompany you to find your aunt?"

"No need. Thank you Madam for your kindness." Mao Tongtong was still polite to Madam Zhang.After all, when she was on the boat, she did take care of her.

Just as she was talking, Chen Ruzhu came over in a hurry, took Mao Tongtong's hand and said, "Why is my sister here? But Er Niang and I are so anxious, everyone is looking for you!"

"I made my aunt and sister worry." Mao Tongtong held her hand and said, "I lost my way, and met Mrs. Zhang who came from Yangzhou, so I said a few more words."

Only now did Chen Ruzhu see Madam Zhang and Zhang Sirui, and after hearing Mao Tongtong's introduction, she smiled and said a few polite words.

"I still have to bring my younger sister back to Er Niang, so I won't bother Madam to offer incense." Chen Ruyu pulled Mao Tongtong and was about to leave, with a bit of politeness and alienation in her words.

Mrs. Zhang smiled and nodded, expressing her indifference.

"Mom, why do I feel that Mao Tongtong's cousin looks down on us!" Zhang Sirui frowned and said as he looked at Mao Tongtong and Chen Ruyu walking away.

Mrs. Zhang sighed slightly, and said: "She is a lady from the official family, so naturally she looks down on our business."

"Hmph, is her family a big official? What's the big deal! I'll be an official's wife soon!" Zhang Sirui had a somewhat smug face.

Seeing her ignorance in the world, Mrs. Zhang felt worried.After living in the capital for a month, the family is obviously not active in Si Rui's marriage, and there is a faint intention of delaying and getting rid of it.

I heard that the master of that family is seriously ill and is almost dying.Only then did he think of urging his son to complete the marriage.But his wife and son were not happy.After all, he has a fourth-rank official position, and it is really shameful for his son-in-law to marry a merchant girl.

It's just that officials and family members always want face, and they don't want to take the initiative to do such a treacherous thing, so they want to make them retreat.

She didn't want her daughter to be wronged, so she really planned to drop the marriage.But the master's exhortation is still in my ears.If the daughter marries into an official family, the Zhang family's business can be improved to a higher level.Thinking of the youngest son in the family, she hesitated again.

Therefore, after spending more than a month in Beijing, this matter has been dragging on without a specific result.

It's just that she didn't tell her daughter about these worries, so Zhang Sirui always thought that she could get married smoothly.

Over there, Chen Ruzhu dragged Mao Tongtong all the way to the front of Su Shi, and saw Su Shi looked at her anxiously and said: "You scared my aunt, why did you get lost?"

"It's my niece, I didn't keep up with the scenery for a while." Mao Tongtong sincerely admitted his mistake.

Chen Ruyu said angrily: "What a troublemaker, it doesn't make people feel at peace to come out and enjoy incense!"
