The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 202 The Trip to the National Temple (1)
When the two saw the clothes, they immediately changed into them. The size was very suitable, making the two even more handsome.The fabric of the clothes is not very expensive, but it is very comfortable to wear.Brother Qiu and Brother Dong still can't wear those luxurious fabrics.

Today is the Double Ninth Festival. In the morning, after Shen Xuan and the others packed up, they drove to the General's Mansion to pick up Mrs. Du.

Mrs. Du has packed up the General's Mansion and is waiting for them.Seeing the arrival of Shen's carriage, the concierge hurried in to report, and upon learning of Brother Qiu and Brother Dong's arrival, Madam Du specially received them in the living room.

Seeing the handsome brothers Qiu and Dong, Mrs. Du praised them again, and each gave a set of paper, ink, brush and inkstone as a meeting gift.While talking, Miss Lianqiao ordered the others to pack up the things they needed for the trip.

At the second quarter of the hour, they got into the carriage and headed for the National Temple.They had three carriages for this trip: one for Shen Xuan and Madam Du, each with their own personal maids, Shen Xuan with Pinellia and Lilac, Madam Du with Forsythia and Lianqing; Brother took one, each with his servant Mingyan and companion crane; in the other car sat Mama Mama next to Madam Du and two young maids, Xiaoyu Xiaolan, and Yun Shu and Li Luo also sat in the same car. in this car.

After leaving the city gate, the speed of the three carriages accelerated a lot.Through the gap in the car window, you will see the scenery outside rushing down.Because it was a festival, there were other carriages on the road, some went to the National Temple on the same road, and some went to the nearby suburbs to enjoy the scenery.Inside the carriage, Madam Du and Shen Xuan were chatting with each other.

"Auntie, can you take it well? If you are sleepy, close your eyes and sleep for a while?" Shen Xuan asked Madam Du with concern.She knew that these people had to get up very early to dress up when they were going out.

"It's okay, I haven't come out for a long time, and I feel much better after breathing the fresh air." Madam Du replied softly.Probably due to the influence of the surrounding environment, Mrs. Du now has a very comfortable smile on her face.

"You will feel better when you arrive at the National Temple." Shen Xuan replied.

After that, the car was full of laughter.The two maids, Banxia and Dingxiang, didn't stop talking.Chatting with each other, Madam Du didn't hold back Lianqiao and Lianqing, and the four maids quickly became friends.

By the time the carriage stopped at the foot of Guosi Mountain, it was already three o'clock, and it was only half an hour before lunch time.

After Banxia and Dingxiang got off the car, Shen Xuan went on.Looking at the mountains and dense forests in the distance, look up to see how blue the sky is.The white clouds are so white, it feels like a refreshing autumn.

Shen Xuan inhaled and exhaled to complete the exhalation of the turbid air, then turned to look at Mrs. Du who had already got off the car, and Brother Qiu and Brother Dong also came to the two of them.After all the people arrived, they went to the National Temple.

After entering the National Temple, they first went to the main hall, the Tianwang Hall, to offer incense and worship Buddha.There are also many people who come to offer incense in the temple today. As soon as you walk, you can see all kinds of people everywhere.

Walking to the Hall of Heavenly Kings, Shen Xuan and Mrs. Du knelt down and prayed devoutly to bless the health of their relatives far away at the border.Forsythia and Dingxiang received instructions from their master to donate some sesame oil money to the next door.

After worshiping the Buddha, Shen Xuan and Mrs. Du walked to the apse, Brother Qiu and Brother Dong hurried to catch up.

The Heavenly King Hall in front is for everyone to kneel down and worship, there is no difference in rank.All beings are equal.There is a special guest courtyard in the apse, which is convenient for those who come from the aristocratic family to rest.The size of the guest house directly reflects the grade.The difference in identity is divided into several levels.

Mama Ma took out the official card belonging to the General's Mansion, and after being confirmed, they went to the guest house under the leadership of the young monk.The courtyard was relatively small, with only three wing rooms, Brother Qiu and Brother Dong were also taken to the corresponding men's courtyard.

"Auntie, take a rest first, I'll go out for a walk." Shen Xuan said to Mrs. Du after thinking about it.

There are three wing rooms for Mrs. Du, and the rest is just right for Mama Mama and the others. If Shen Xuan and the others join in, it will be a bit cramped.What's more, Shen Xuan intends to take the opportunity to visit Master Hui De.

"After the vegetarian meal, are you going out for a stroll?" Mrs. Du discussed with Shen Xuan, it was almost lunch time.

"Auntie, I'm not hungry now, I want to go out for a walk, it's hard to come out once." Shen Xuan declined with a smile.

"That's fine, don't go too far, come back after you have a look." Mrs. Du instructed, without any further force.

After several conversations, Mrs. Du realized the difference between Shen Xuan and the daughters of other mansions: independence.independent thinking.The decision made cannot be changed... Mrs. Du is also tired after walking all the way just now, and urgently needs to rest.

"I know Auntie, you have a good rest." After Shen Xuan replied, she took the four maids and left.

"Ma'am, go rest on the couch for a while, the old servant is calling you when the fast meal is delivered later." After Shen Xuan and the others left, Mama Ma saw the tired look on Madam Du's face looking at her Open your mouth to persuade.

"Hey, that girl's heart is really good, she gave us all the rooms." Madam Du murmured, how could she not guess Shen Xuan's thoughts!
"Miss Shen is indeed good, much better than the average Qianjin Miss." Mama Ma followed Madam Du's words and affirmed Shen Xuan.

"Okay, mommy, you are all tired too, go down and rest, just leave someone to watch over you." Madam Du said as she went to the couch, ready to take a rest.

After receiving the order, Mama Ma and the others quickly withdrew, leaving Forsythia in the room to serve.After asking Mrs. Zen Xiangdu in the house, she soon fell asleep, and the house was quiet.

After Shen Xuan took Ding Xiang and the others out of the courtyard, they walked to a remote place, and soon stopped outside an inconspicuous courtyard.The five stood there looking at the courtyard. There were several pots of evening chrysanthemums blooming in the courtyard, and they could smell the faint fragrance of chrysanthemums even standing there.

With a creak, the door of the side room in the courtyard opened from the inside out, and a bald monk walked out, who was also someone Shen Xuan and the others knew.

"Amitabha, female benefactor, you are here, master is here to invite you." The monk quickly walked up to Shen Xuan and stood still. After reciting the Buddha's name, he said to Shen Xuan. Obviously, the visitor also recognized Shen Xuan and the others.

"Master Wuming is polite." Shen Xuan put his hands together, bowed slightly to Wuming in front of him, and saluted, and the four people behind him followed suit.

"Don't dare to be. Don't dare to be, female benefactor, please." Wu Ming moved a step to the side, avoiding the direction of Shen Xuan's luggage, not daring to accept Shen Xuan's gift.Invite Shen Xuan and the others again, and Master Huide is waiting inside.

When he came out just now, Master Huide had already told Wuming specifically that he couldn't bear the gift of "Yinfeng" at present.

"Let's go, go see that old monk." Seeing the anxious look on Wu Ming's face, Shen Xuan readily agreed, and walked into the courtyard after speaking.
