In front of the temple gate, many carriages have stopped.
He Yan and Xiao Jue got out of the carriage, and feinu drove the carriage to one side to wait. Neither of them had a maid or servant with him, and they were both so conspicuous that those who came in and came to worship Buddha couldn't help looking more. Those who didn't know people just looked at him. After recognizing Xiao Jue, they guessed he Yan's identity. However, they didn't dare to discuss anything in front of their faces, so they avoided from afar.
The rules for worshipping Buddha are simple. Ordinary people will donate some rice and oil, while those who are better off will donate some silver. Xiao's money is not bad, and feinu has already been prepared. When you receive incense from monks, you should kneel down in the temple.
Xiao Jue didn't go in.
He Yan asked him why he didn't enter. He just said, "I don't believe in Buddhism."
He Yan said:
They all went to the front of the mountain gate and said that I didn't believe in Buddhism in their territory. He was really arrogant and lawless. However, if you believe in this kind of thing, you can't force Xiao Jue to worship Buddha. She let Xiao Jue stay outside and enter the hall by herself.
Heyan knelt down on the futun, and the Golden Buddha statue that she made up and was built for the prosperous merchant looked down upon all living beings mercifully. She bowed down and kowtowed devoutly. She did not ask for anything else, but only for those people who had been hurt by he Rufei and were tired of themselves to return early, so that their next life would be safe and healthy without disaster.
After finishing incense and lighting the lantern, Heyan went out of the hall. Xiao Jue waited for her in front of the hall door. Seeing her coming out, he asked casually, "what wish did you make?"
"I hope there won't be any more wars in the world," He Yan said with his hands folded together, pretending to be upright. "I hope the prosperous times are peaceful, and you and I can be relaxed."
This is not true. The matter of the uto people has not been completely settled. I heard that there are still arguments about the main battle and the peace in the court hall, and there is no result up to now.
After donating incense money, worshipping Buddha, you can also have a vegetarian meal in the temple. Yuhua temple's vegetarian food is also unique. However, he Yan's eyes were blind and his heart was bitter when he came last time. Even if he ate mountain treasures, he had already forgotten what it was like. Now he thinks about it, but he has some expectations.
When you pass by the ancient trees behind the Yuhua temple, you can see that the huge ancient trees are rooted beside the mountain temple. The branches are as vast as clouds. They are originally green, but they are covered with layers of red. When you get closer, you can see that the red on the top is all red silk, which is written on the red silk, which is the wish of the writer. It is said that if you hang your wish on the ancient wood, the ancient wood will come to light.
He Yan thought that he had hung red silk here, and he couldn't help stopping.
"This old tree is very smart." She said to Xiao Jue.
Xiao Jue leisurely way: "make up a story again?"
"No, it's really smart." He Yan laughed and thought that she had hung a wish on the tree in her previous life, hoping to see the moon again. When she wrote this line on the red silk, she felt that she was crazy. Not to mention the moon, her eyes can see light again, this alone, it sounds incredible.
However, at this impossible time, even after her death, she could be reborn in the absolute place again. As expected, she saw the "Moon" again.
"I have more money in the future," Heyan said, "so I went to buy a lot of fertilizer to irrigate this ancient tree to show my gratitude and sincerity."
Xiao Jue choked, "your sincerity is really different."
The guest house of Yuhua temple is in front of the courtyard where the monks live. For those who donate less, many people eat in the same place, while those who donate more have their own special courtyard, which is about one room for each family, with fewer people and more elegant environment.
Although he is somewhat speechless about this kind of differential treatment, it is also a good thing if there are fewer people today. He Yan is not willing to eat a vegetarian meal and be watched secretly by everyone. Now because of the marriage given by Emperor Wen Xuan, it also needs great courage for her to appear with Xiao Jue. Even though he was once a man of the times, he had a mask at that time, but now he has no half of it. In broad daylight, it looks like a white peacock transported from a foreign country by a maritime merchant. Everyone should have a look at it and talk about it.
After sitting down in the guest house, the monk in green clothes brought many dishes. It was really rich. Steamed white jade Buddha's hand, sweet and sour bitter gourd, wild pepper steamed wax gourd, purple potato cake, immortal tofu It's much colder on the mountain than at the foot of the mountain. After driving all morning on the mountain road, he was already hungry. He Yan could not help but have a big appetite. He gave Xiao Jue a pair of chopsticks and said, "sesame oil money is not in vain Governor, if you don't have enough, can I have another one? "
Xiao Jue:
He said, "at will."
He Yan was not polite. She ate boldly. By contrast, Xiao Jue's eating style was much more elegant. Not long after she started eating, the door of the guest house was knocked, and a monk led two people in.
For rich families like them, the dining room is small and exquisite, and it is usually enough for one family. However, the weather is fine today and it is the Mid Autumn Festival. There are so many pilgrims who come to Yuhua temple to offer incense. They may not be able to arrange any more, so they can only squeeze together with Xiao Jue.Xiao Jue eyebrow micro Cu, was about to speak, he Yan way: "nothing, let them in, I eat very fast, not in the way."
It's so easy to get a little fame in the capital city of Shuo. She hasn't had an informal fight with he Ru. She doesn't want to rush to others with an overbearing excuse.
Xiao Jue thought for a moment, but did not make a sound.
The two men brought in by the monks were two women. One was older and the other was younger. He Yan had only a slight sweep. When he saw the face of the older woman, he felt a jump in his heart. In an instant, he lost control and dropped his chopsticks on the ground.
He Yan is busy bending over to pick up, and by the way covers the shock on his face.
This sound also attracted the attention of the two people who came in. The two women stopped their steps and looked at Heyan of Qi Dynasty. He Yan picked up the chopsticks, and the monk came over and said, "please wait a moment, benefactor. I'll go and get a clean pair for the benefactor."
He Yan has not said anything, the young woman has followed him to see Xiao Jue, blurted out: "Feng Yun general!"
He Yan subconsciously looked at Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue eyebrows slightly frown, as if unhappy.
He Xinying was very surprised. He didn't expect to go up the mountain and see Xiao Jue here. She only saw Xiao Jue once when she went shopping with her friends. She saw a group of people riding horses through the street in the city. The pedestrians and carriages on the roadside all gave way. The leading man was handsome and distinguished. At that time, her friend told her that he was general Fengyun of the great Wei Dynasty.
Probably because this man is really beautiful and gives people too vivid impression, so the sight of Xiao Jue coincides with the shadow in her memory.
However, people all know that the governor Xiao is not very good-natured. For a while, he Xinying helped the second lady of he, neither in nor out. I'm afraid that a careless person will offend the cruel jade face governor.
However, he Er Madame didn't care about these things. She just took he Xinying and sat down at the table next to them.
He Xinying looks at Xiao Jue curiously. There are a lot of rumors about this governor Xiao, but one thing has never changed, that is, he is not close to women. However, this rumor was broken at the celebration banquet a few days ago. His majesty personally married him to a woman, and Xiao Jue, in the hall, in the face of civil and military officials, and the woman's protection and deep love spread to the people of shuojing, she broke many girls' dreams overnight.
On the day when Xu Zhiheng came back from the celebration banquet, he was not in a good mood and didn't talk about these things with he Xinying. Therefore, it was the servant girls bought by your family the next day and heard about them in the street, and then they spread to the whole family. In fact, Xiao Jue's fiancee, who was also a very simple woman, dared to dress up as a man and kill the uto people in the battlefield. She became the first Marquis of Wu'an in the Wei Dynasty.
Most coincidentally, this Marquis of Wu'an and her late sister, grandmother Xu, who died earlier, have the same name and surname, also known as Heyan.
However, her sister Heyan, who has to be raised in Chuang Tzu for many years and takes medicine every day, is not to say that she has to go to the battlefield to kill the uto people. She even needs to breathe a few more steps. It is the same as the name, but the temperament is different.
He Xinying looks at the woman around Xiao Jue. The woman is also young and beautiful, and her eyebrows are full of vigor and heroism. He Xinying guesses that the one who can make the governor Xiao, who is not close to the female, is neither the eldest grandmother of the Xiao family, but his fiancee, Marquis Wu'an.
When he Xinying looks at himself, he Yan just lowers his head and pretends to eat seriously. However, in his heart, he has to look at the man facing him, Mrs. he Er, for several times.
That's her own mother.
He Yan is not very impressed with his second wife. Compared with he Yuanliang, Mrs. he Er doesn't like to go out. On weekdays, he only stays in her own yard unless it's on a new year's day. Maybe it's a soft hearted woman. Madame Heyan is afraid of making mistakes. He Yan often sees he Yuanliang, but rarely sees his wife. But since Da Heyan knew his real identity, he often wanted to see what kind of person his biological mother was. Vaguely feel is a very quiet, gentle woman, sometimes seems a bit dull.
He Yuan Liang was smiling in his usual days, which was very popular with women. There were several concubines living in the second room, and some of them had sons and daughters. He Yuan Liang did not neglect his wife. He did not spoil his wife. At least, before he joined the army in his previous life, Mrs. he had a good life at home.
One year at the family dinner, when he Yan was eating at home, he sat at the same table with his second wife. She was not very old at that time. She was just ten years old. She was sitting opposite Mrs. he er. She was very curious. She looked up more often. At the family dinner later, he Yan and Mrs. he did not sit at the same table.
She didn't expect to meet her biological mother here without warning. Rao Shi no longer hates the family and has no emotion. When facing the second wife of he, he Yan's mood is not as indifferent as it seems on the surface.
He Xinying carefully pulled the second lady of he and said in a low voice: "the opposite one is commander Xiao, the general of Fengyun. It is very likely that he Yan, the Marquis of Wu'an, who was married by his majesty a few days ago."As soon as he said this, he Er Madame took the chopsticks and looked up at the opposite table.
Now the news of Xiao Huaijin's marriage is known throughout Shuo Kyoto, from high officials to ordinary people. Even beggars on the street know that his fiancee's name is Heyan. It's impossible that he er's wife has not been heard. At first, I can't help but feel bleary when I hear someone with the same name and surname as his dead daughter.
At the other end, Xiao Jue noticed he Yan's sudden silence and asked her, "why don't you talk?"
Before the mother and daughter came, she kept chattering, but after they came, she stopped talking. Since he was recognized, he Yan had never been a man of character.
Afraid of being seen by Xiao Jue, he Yan smiles and looks for a beginning of the story, saying: "governor, the piece of black jade you gave me before has been put here all the time. Is it really good?"
"There's nothing wrong with it."
"I just think it's too expensive." He Yan put a mouthful of sweet potato cake in his mouth, staring at the table instead of looking at the other two people in the room, "but your parents will really name you, Jue, which means Shuangyu. The Empress Dowager's mother gave you two-color jade. It's really appropriate. "
Xiao Jue laughed, "your name is also good."
He Yan thought for a while, moved his lips, seemed to want to say something, but finally did not say anything, bow his head to eat.
He Er Madame stares at the movement of He Yan. He Yan is fond of sweetness. When he eats, he always puts beets first. Although he is not polite and reserved, he is more frugal than he is. He won't drop a grain of rice. If she encounters a dish she doesn't like to eat, she won't lose it. She just stops for a moment, as if to lay some courage for herself. Then she eats it all at once and never touches that dish again.
He Er Madame looked at her, and her face gradually changed. Her empty and numb eyes began to become more and more excited, as if she could not help crying.
Xiao Jue turned his back to the second lady of he, so he didn't see the unusual behavior of the second lady. He Yan saw it and pretended not to know it. He changed his words to Xiao Jue.
He Xin shadow whispered: "Niang, why don't you eat it?"
The girl seemed to feel something. Looking at this head, Mrs. he Er quickly bowed her head, picked up chopsticks and picked up a mouthful of rice. No one saw her tears falling into the bowl.
In addition to Xiao Jue and he Xinying, the second wife of he and he Yan all ate with different thoughts. He Yan came earlier and ate faster. After eating, he Yan put down his chopsticks. Xiao Jue had eaten well. When she did, he said, "let's go."
He Yan nodded and went out together.
It wasn't long after I left. Suddenly, someone's voice came from behind Girl, stop
He Yan looks back. He Er Madame runs towards him with her skirt in her hand. He Xin shadow behind her is also a little stunned. It seems that he did not expect his mother to make such a move. He Er Madame is not in good health. After running for a few steps, she gasps in a low voice. Among the official wives, her behavior has been somewhat impolite. However, he Er Madame did not care about these, and came to this end.
Xiao Jue frowned: "who?"
"I am The wife of the second room of the he family in Beijing. " The second wife of he glanced at Xiao Jue. The young man's indifference made her feel a little timid. Even so, she was still staring at Heyan, and she was reluctant to move her eyes.
He Yan nodded his head and smile: "he Er Madame."
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." He Xinying also catches up and secretly pulls a handful of the sleeves of the second lady of he, with some anger in his eyes. As soon as he Yan left, they didn't finish the meal. He Xinying was just about to talk about the two people with the second wife of he. He saw that the second lady of he suddenly stood up and chased out.
It all happened so fast that she couldn't stop it. But he Xinying knows that he is a good man. Don't make trouble with the commander of the right army. In the official's house of Shuo capital city, which family doesn't know Xiao Huaijin is not a good one. If you investigate, don't add trouble to the he family.
"What can I do for you, madam?" He Yan asked politely.
Mrs. he Er looked at her as if she were looking at another person through her. Her voice was soft, as if she were afraid to disturb the girl in front of her, or coax her three-year-old daughter, "you He Yan
He Yan looked at the woman in front of him.
Mrs. he ER in her memory is still very young, which is different from Mrs. He Da's meticulously strict manner. She has a gentle and gentle face, which makes her a very good-natured person. She had seen her sister, he Xinying, break a very valuable vase. Not only was he not angry, she would hold him in her arms to see if her hand was scratched by the broken vase.
He Yan was very envious at that time, and felt that his mother-in-law was really better than his mother.
Later, she went back to her house after a war and became "Heyan" again. The second wife of he also came several times. But they miss each other so much that even if they sit in a room, they feel embarrassed and alienated. On the day of marriage, he'er Madame came to see her off. He Yan sat in the room and said a word when she helped her cover her head.
She took Heyan's hand and said slowly, "ah he, you should be good in the future."In a word, he Yan's eyes were wet.
Unfortunately, even the simple wish of "good" was not achieved in the end. Even if she was blind in the Xu family, he Er Madame had never come to see her once because she was "sick".
The woman in front of her is much older, and she is no longer young in memory. He Yan can even see that there are gray spots hidden between her temples.
She is old.
He Xinying looked at Xiao Jue and was nervous. He explained to Heyan, "I'm sorry, miss he. It's because you have the same name as my sister, so my mother and she..."
She didn't know how to go on. She said that he Yan had the same name as a dead man. Who knows if the Marquis would feel unlucky and unhappy.
He Er Madame looked at Heyan and asked: "miss he Why are you called Heyan? "
He Yan gazed at her for a moment, then with a smile of indifference, he answered casually in a relaxed tone: "who knows, ordinary women don't use the word" Yan ". Maybe my parents knew that I must go to the battlefield to protect the safety of the people in my life. In this way, the name is just for seeking Ordinary people are quite different. "
There was a hint of self mockery in her remark.
"The river is clear and the sea is Yan". It sounds natural and prosperous. However, when she went to the battlefield, her relatives, who are related to her, are not distressed. On the contrary, they have to squeeze the last trace of her value here, which is chilling. He Yan originally thought that her desire for family affection had been worn out at a very young age. If there is no hope, it will not be too sad when you are disappointed. Now she got the warmth she had never had before in another family of he. When she met the second wife of he, all the complaints and grievances that were deliberately buried in the bottom of her heart were born.
At the end of the speech, he Xinying didn't feel anything, but he Er Madame's expression changed. The blood color on her face suddenly faded clean and almost tottering.
He Yan nodded to them, "if there is nothing wrong, we will go first." She gently pulled the corner of Xiao Jue's coat and walked forward.
He Xin shadow behind him waited for the two people to go far enough, then murmured, "Niang, what's the matter with you? Suddenly, I was shocked. You don't know what kind of person Dudu Xiao is. Fortunately, they didn't care about it just now. If they were angry, the elder brother and husband might not have a way Mother, mother
He Xinying suddenly stopped talking, because she saw the woman in front of her, her eyes gushed a big drop of tears, tears across the corner of her eyes which had already produced fine lines, such as the cold dew at night, with broken sorrow.
He Xinying knows that he Er Madame thinks of her dead elder sister. After he Yan's death, his mother's health has been in bad condition. The doctor always said that it would be good to take care of him. But he Xinying knew that this was a heart disease. Mother's heart always read long sister's death, will be so.
It's just She did not understand. She always thought that her mother was always indifferent to her elder sister. Maybe it was because he Yan had been recuperating in Zhuangzi and had never been close to his mother in the government, so it was difficult for him to have the same feelings as himself after a long time. But after he Yan's death, her mother was so sad that she realized that she was not merciless.
But in this case, why did you take her so estranged?
His father, he Yuanliang, was very kind to everyone. He was always smiling and friendly, but he was not so sad about his death.
In a word, Heyan seems to be a subtle existence in his family, and his death makes those seemingly ordinary things finally show the oddity below. She was full of questions, but no one could answer them.
No one will answer for her.
He Xin Ying took his second lady's hand and said nothing at last. He took the veil to wipe away tears from the corner of his eyes for his mother, and said in a low voice: "mother, let's go back."
