Second Continuation of Golden Plum

Chapter 29

The girl from the heretical sect should be chaotic and make trouble in the fasting hall.

Ten thousand predestined relationship rests all non-removal, and one nature is perfect and natural.

The mountains and rivers are bright and ancestral, and the true interpretation of birds singing, flowers laughing and talking.

Open the window and watch the clouds come and go, startling the mandarin ducks to sleep on the water.

again:
The Tao is one foot tall and the devil is ten feet tall, and the devil and the way have right and wrong.

Mountain ghosts can make their own tricks, and wild foxes don't hinder meditation.

Throwing red water into the mouth conveys the secret of the heart, and the green lotus of the tinder is a subtle metaphor.

Whether you can learn how to wash dirty and swallow needles, Mu'er can ride an iron bull to return.

It is said that Aunt Baihua envoys a nun to send 50 taels of silver and asks Aunt Fuqing to prepare a fasting offering.A large sedan chair, a pair of yellow flags, and a pair of red sticks, followed by more than a hundred female monks riding horses surrounded the large sedan chair.When we arrived at the gate of Dajue Temple, we got off the sedan chair.These female monks rushed in, followed Baihuagu to the temple to worship Buddha, and then walked to the abbot of Xin'an in the east.Lecture futons have already been laid down, and the benches for listening to scriptures on both sides are full of seats.First, Fuqing came to pay homage and ask questions, and gave tea all over the place. After tea, there was fasting.My aunt ate vegetarian sweets and exotic fruits alone on the throne, all of which were high-cluster Zhupan.When the rice was served, there were another [-] big bowls, nothing more than mushrooms, maru, bird's nest, smallpox, various expensive dishes, fried gluten, fresh lotus root stuffed with sugar, etc.After eating a few chopsticks, I took them off and gave them to the nuns to eat.In front of everyone is a plate of sugar rolls, a bowl of steamed rice, and various vegetarian dishes, which are very plentiful.The nun played the chime, chanted a few sutras and mantras, ate his fast together, took away the household utensils, and went down to the hall to wash their hands and eat tea. They all stood still and watched. Some said that they invited the living Bodhisattva to come, and some said that they were trying his magic to tear down the living.Inside and outside the door, I don't know how many people are waiting to see the performance of Baihua Girl.Even this Fuqing aunt doesn't know what dharma to perform or what scriptures to teach.When it's time to light up the candles and beat the drums in the hall to recite the evening homework, this Baihua girl has not yet seen her seat.

But see:

Hang a few glazed colored lanterns and hang a few lines of images of the God of Saipan.There are two Bodhisattvas sitting in the middle, and three days of attendants stand beside them.There is also the divine general who holds a sword and holds a sword, takes a human head in his hand, has a blue face and red hair, and is called an assistant; there is also a celestial master who rides a lion and an elephant, with three heads and six arms, with three heads and six arms, who is called the guardian of the country.Only when the altar was opened, gongs and drums were played, and as soon as he took his seat, he danced left and right.

After finishing homework in the main hall, the bells and drums were beating together to form a commotion, neither praying nor meditating.He carried out a gold Buddha, more than two feet high, said to be the Buddha.The two monks made offerings to the Buddha, and then Baihuagu stepped down from her seat, circled around the Buddha three times, raised the bronze drum in her hand, recited some mantras, and bowed nine times.But first he took a big drum and played it. The song he sang was very sweet and romantic.These female monks, each with a drum, beat together and sang along, making the ground shake and the mountains shaking, and the words could not be heard.

After playing once, I saw four nuns dancing to each other in front of the Buddha, dancing left and right, dancing round and round.All the nuns and monks turned around with the Buddha together, and the whole hall turned like a windmill.Even the lamps and candles on the fruit offering tray were dimly danced.There are those four nuns again, you put my shoulders on my shoulders, I put your backs on your backs, arm in arms gracefully, with their chests sideways and their heads tilted, in a very playful shape, which is only called Luanfeng dance.The women who watched were all outside the abbot's door, shoulder to shoulder and shoulder to shoulder, dazzled and really excited.Some of the old and mature pilgrims and women who were ashamed after eating fast also left.Those women from the heretic sect, such as the widows Bian and Bao, and the two daughters Dangui and Xiangyu, when they saw this blending scene, they lived among the nuns and pilgrims, and couldn't see them.

I saw Baihuagu sitting on the Dharma seat, with her eyes open and her legs crossed, meditating.There is also a 30-year-old foreign monk with big eyes and wide cheeks and a face like red dates. He holds a big drum and moves left and right in front of the Buddha, jumping and rolling; , with a red rope, more than one zhang high, up and down, one east and one west, dancing to the drummer, really like a flying phoenix swimming a dragon.This is called the demon dance.They danced wildly in turns until the five drums, and made the nuns in Dajue Temple half upside down. They wished they could learn this method to play, so they were very happy: "How can you win them when you go to read scriptures and chant Buddha in a quiet place?" This is such a joy!" Here the nun cleaned up the altar and often took it as a rule, and made the Dajue Temple his meditation forest, so he didn't say anything about it.

Besides, the women who came to see here are all from Bianliang City who have long been used to visiting temples to burn incense, raise monks, recognize apprentices, eat evil fasts, and preach heretics. Is there any reason why decent people would allow these women to burn incense into temples?Among them were the former military ladies in the command battalion, mixed in the crowd.There was a wife of Zhang Dujian, who recognized Mrs. Bian Qianhu and Mrs. Bao Commander, who sat in the girl's room: "It's like Grandma Bian and Grandma Bao 15 years ago. Why are you walking here in Beijing these few years?" Come here, you have two well-groomed daughters, could it be that I was the mediator at the time, saying that the two of them are in-laws?" Walking into the abbot, I asked all the aunts, stepped forward to recognize each other, and then said with a smile: " My grandma, you two don’t recognize me anymore?” Commander Bao went up to take a look, and then she recognized Mrs. Li from Zhang Dujian’s family. She lived in the same camp and went to Dongyue Temple to pay homage. How affectionate , After this chaos, you will go east and west, and you will miss it face to face.Everyone bowed and bowed, and hurriedly called Dangui and Xiangyu to come and see them, and said, "This is Mrs. Zhang who was the matchmaker for the two of you." They bowed now.Mrs. Zhang Dujian looked at his two daughters as beautiful as flowers and jade, like a pair of teeth, and said: "I remember when we parted, the two girls were only three or four years old. Today they are so slender, how can we say that we are not old! "

The nun let her into the dining hall and served tea.Look at this picture of the Dujian lady, she is whiter than the old days, and she is dressed in an old fashioned way, very plain.Talking about the old sayings of the past, the parents are short-sighted, so I can't ask.Yin said: "Due to the turmoil in the past few years, did your two relatives communicate with each other? I forgot that it was the daughter-in-law of that family. The two girls are also of the age to get married." Bao commanded the lady and said Said: "In the past few years, I have been a poor military officer in the north, and I have suffered misfortune. My family has been destroyed. Where can I send a letter?" The bell was changed at the banquet, and whoever saw him come to the door in a continuous manner? His father-in-law is on guard in Shanxi, and he doesn't know if he is there or not." Mrs. Zhang Dujian said: "I'm old, I forget things, I don't remember. You married the little conductor Hou Laizi's family." While speaking, he looked at Sister Dangui and stopped talking.Then he asked Mrs. Bian Qianhu: "Whose family did this girl betroth to?" Mrs. Bian Qianhu said: "Wang Qianhu in Xiying. Since the marriage was engaged, there was a war, and each family kept their points. They only said that they would get married in the future. It was a matchmaking ceremony, but now there is no one to ask. Living in such a poor life, orphans and widows, I don’t know what to do with this girl in the future." Mrs. Zhang Dujian said: "This is not old Wang Qian. The son of Hu Wang Mingyu?" Mrs. Bian Qianhu said: "It is him. I remember that he is a good and fair son-in-law. Miss Dayu is two years old, and she should be eighteen or nineteen now." Mrs. Zhang Dujian said: "You I don't know yet, this is my nephew. He has been in the Datong camp for more than ten years, and this son has been dead for more than ten years. You still want a son-in-law. There is no one in the family." Looking at Sister Dangui again, he said: "I I shouldn't have communicated this letter, but speaking of it, your mother and I are annoyed again."

Commander Bao said to his wife, "Could it be that my son-in-law is gone after the chaos?" Mrs. Zhang Dujian said, "It's still clean when it's gone. Now Commander Hou and his wife are both mourned. Leaving you son-in-law, you are so poor that you have no tiles." Gen rafter, who looks like no one, was slashed on the head by Jin Bing and just escaped his life. Now he walks on only one leg, and everyone calls him Hou lame.

These days, I only eat at relatives' homes in the camp, where there is a family business.Today I want to follow me to burn incense, because I can't walk, I borrowed a donkey to ride on it, and I don't know when I will arrive. "Said Bao commanded the lady to burst into tears, and Sister Dangui hung her head and was speechless.

When I was sad, I saw some men and women coming into the abbot, and called Mrs. Zhang Dujian, saying: "Sooner or later, I should go home, and the donkey will come to pick you up." A young man came out of them, and saw: "Pick your cheeks." He turned his face, with a few yellow hairs on his head; his mouth was thin and his teeth were thin, and he was wearing a half blue jacket.A lame goose looks for a change, and takes three steps to beat the man with one step; a turtle with a scarlet head goes into the water, it is easy to shrink its head and it is difficult to start it.When moving, the left foot is raised first, as if waiting for the breath of abductor;The celestial guest followed, and soon he dressed up as Li Tieguai; the beauty was absolutely lost, when will we see Zhao Pingyuan.

This is Commander Hou's sneak attack, Sister Dangui's good son-in-law.Now the cripple turned into the abbot, looked at Zhang Dujian's wife and said with a smile: "My aunt didn't wait for me to come first, she listened to the scriptures all night, now it's time to go back." Looking at Bian Qianhu and Bao commanded the ladies Sitting in one place, he sang up and said, "Who is this lady?"

This piece of Dujian's wife said quickly, "You still don't kowtow to your mother-in-law! Today I am looking for my mother-in-law, and tomorrow I am looking for my mother-in-law, but I met here." Hou Laizi looked up, but saw two neat women, Following the two widows behind her, she didn't recognize which one was the mother-in-law, so she stretched out her lame leg, lay down on the ground first, and kowtowed her head.Sister Dangui was so ashamed that she turned her face away, and there was no place to hide for a while.When the cripple saw it, he knew it was his wife, but he couldn't recognize that it was Miss Gui, so he deliberately asked, "How is my daughter-in-law, Miss Gui?"Mrs. Zhang Dujian was so stubborn, she took Sister Dangui's hand, and said, "Look, I'm waiting for a daughter-in-law, I see you getting married there!" Lame Hou looked up and saw that he didn't know where his soul was flying. I was so frightened that my heart beat wildly, as if I saw a wolf, and sang another song, saying: "Tomorrow I will go to my mother-in-law's house to kowtow." Turning one step, I went out of the temple.The two widows Bian and Bao and Mrs. Zhang Dujian are so boring.Sister Dangui was very happy, she felt cold for a while, she couldn't laugh or cry, she said to herself: "I have such a hard life, and I met this enemy, it's not as good as Sister Xiangyu's husband died, and she ended up clean, so she can get married again." Said Then, send out Zhang Dujian's wife.

These nuns also sighed: "These two daughters are very talented, but they met this son-in-law. It is because of the incomplete cultivation of the previous life." The four of them left his mother and daughter after breakfast, and then they said: "Old days nunnery There is no one to guard the house, it is far away, and now the roof of the Dajue Temple is extremely wide, it is better to pick up your wives and live next door, and do some pointers." Fuqing said: "Since entering the temple Come, set up a forest to receive the crowd. There are more than a hundred female monks, who sell pilgrims tea and water all day long. They can't get busy, and no one can make a pair of shoes. I also invite his sisters to come. There is a spare room on the east side of the three churches behind. There are twelve rooms in the front and back, which were originally the residence of the servants of Shishi's family. Now there is a study room, and it is inconvenient for me to move around as a monk. You come to live here, and it is more convenient for you to make shoes and feet." Bian and Bao two widows said: "You know it's good. Li! It’s lonely there. If your old man comes here, there’s no one to talk to. You’ve even lost your money for wine. What are you still in love with? Let’s move here someday, and you can be a good companion by relying on this temple. As the group said, the nuns sent them out of the monastery and went home separately.

First let the foolish brother open the door, and the two widows went in and sat down. Bao commanded the lady to sigh and said to Bian Qianhu's lady: "I am waiting for my son-in-law today, and I am waiting for my son-in-law tomorrow, and now I have made this enemy! People are not like people, ghosts are not like ghosts, don’t say that you are so poor that you don’t even have a pot, only this disabled and cripple, how can I live with a daughter like me? It’s not as good as Miss Yu, who divorced her, how clean.” After finishing speaking , burst into tears.

Mrs. Bian Qianhu persuaded her.Dangui also went back to her room, sobbing and crying.Mrs. Bian Qianhu said: "according to me, this son-in-law is still short of a shadow. Back then, you didn't see three matchmakers, four certificates, sheep and red wine ceremony. It's just a group of drunkards who got drunk and changed to another Zhong'er, who is here to see you? Why come here to lie to a daughter-in-law for nothing?" A few words reminded Mrs. Bao Commander, and said: "You are right. Hugh, a girl like us is just a Good son-in-law, you have to explain it clearly to him. Let’s be sloppy, say nothing, and post a piece of meat?” Here, it’s an idea to not recognize the son-in-law, and I don’t feel panic.

But she said that sister Xiangyu was panicked at first because her son-in-law was gone, and then she saw the appearance of Sister Dangui's son-in-law Hou lame, so she felt refreshed, and secretly said: "If this is the case, it's better to leave your eyes early, so as not to delay people. My life!" On the way home, I saw a man in green clothes and a big hat, who walked to the door of the two of them from a distance, and then stood at Wu Yinjiang's house on the next wall before leaving. I don't know who it is.It can be seen that the head of the daughter's house is exposed, and walking on the street will naturally cause trouble.

It is:

The turtle swallows the hook and the line, and from now on it leads to right and wrong.

Let's listen to the next chapter.
