Chapter 107 Temple
Hearing Wang Zhuangzhi's voice, Rong Qingyan opened her eyes suddenly, and opened the curtains to look at them.
"Master, this carriage is not working properly. If I offer one hundred taels of silver, the carriage may go to Qing'an Temple?"
Tomorrow morning, she was going back to Beijing. She finally came out today, and she was unwilling to see Xiao Liu.
Hearing about one hundred taels, the groom who had just talked to Wang Zhuangzhi hurriedly said, "You hire me to drive the cart, there is no reason to change people halfway, give me half an hour, and I will definitely feed the horses."
Seeing the open-eyed groom, he jumped out of the carriage and rushed into the nearby woods to look for hay.
Wang Zhuangzhi was stunned when he saw this. Sure enough, money is a good thing. The groom was just struggling to stay, but when he heard that others were taking money from him, he ran faster than a rabbit.
Rong frowned and directly opened the curtain, and with the support of the magpie, she came down to the Wang family's carriage.
"Master, can you give me a ride with one hundred taels of silver?"
Even if there is no money, we can get a ride along the way after acquaintance. Wang Zhuangzhi nodded and smiled and invited her to get in the car.
Nurse Zhao in that carriage watched the young lady and the magpie get into someone else's carriage, and she shouted anxiously: "Miss Si, there is still this old slave!"
Rong Qingyan rubbed his temples, and called magpie.
Magpie heard this and rushed outside and shouted: "Mother Zhao, you and the groom will wait here. Remember to feed the horse well, and you will have to ride when you go down the mountain."
Mother Zhao's face changed a few times when she heard that, and she scolded the talkative magpie half to death, and waited to go back home to see how she dealt with her.
Magpie and Mammy added: "What the servant girl said is what Miss Fourth meant."
Mother Zhao choked when she heard that, although she was dissatisfied, how dare she not listen to Miss Fourth, her attitude changed drastically, and she obediently responded with a smile on her face: "Old servant listens to Miss Fourth, Magpie, please take care of Miss Si during this trip. , if there is any delay, I will ask you!"
Magpie smiled, "Mommy, I understand."
The chariot starts to drive,
Jiaojiao looked at the two extra people who came out of the carriage, and she was glad that she put all the babies into the space.
The cloth bag that mainly holds the Golden Buddha treasure is heavy and heavy, and it is too difficult for one person to carry it, so Jiaojiao put it in the space casually, thinking that she will take it out after going up the mountain to find a place where there is no one.
Er Ya and Xiao Li were playing in the pool in the backyard in the morning, they had never seen Rong Qingyan before, and they stared at her veil curiously.
Liu Zhihua didn't have a good impression of them because of what happened in the morning, so she just closed her eyes and rested her mind.
Three pairs of shining eyes stared at her through the veil. Looking around the baby in this car, the white and glutinous baby in the middle was out of place.
Jiaojiao felt that she was looking at her, so she smiled brightly, waved her small hands and said in a waxy voice, "Hello, sister~"
"Well, you're so good." Rong Qingyan's voice softened a little, and she had a good impression of this white and glutinous girl.
Erya also began to ask boldly: "Sister, why are you covering your face?"
Rong Qingyan replied: "It is convenient to travel."
Xiao Li shook his head, tilted his head and whispered to his sister, "Sister, she must have scars on her face, or her face is too dark to see people."
"No, no, I see my lady every day. My lady's skin is white and has no blemishes. She is beautiful." The magpie hurriedly explained.
"Who are you?" Xiao Li tilted his head and looked at the magpie.
Before the magpie could speak, Erya noticed the mole around her mouth with sharp eyes, looked at it strangely and said, "Sister, I recognize the mole on your mouth, I heard the matchmaker say it's a delicious mole, sister, are you very nice?" eat?"
"Of course I'm delicious. I like horseshoe cake, butterfly cake, and crystal mud cake..."
Although everyone thought they were talking in a low voice, the carriage was so big, and they looked at the magpies having a great time chatting with them, and they felt relaxed when they heard them, so they let them go.
The originally boring journey, the children couldn't stop for a moment, twittering like little sparrows.
Qing'an Temple is located in the mountain peak. Due to its remote location, there are relatively few pedestrians coming and going to worship Buddha.
When he reached the front yard of the monastery, Wang Zhuangzhi stopped the carriage.
The gate entrance of Qing'an Temple is just a simple wooden door, not even guarded by monks.
"Miss, slow down..."
Magpie took the lead to help his lady get off the car.
"Baby, come and hug me." Jiaojiao was hugged by Liu Zhihua and got out of the car.
Erya and Xiao Li also ran out of the car, and they looked around curiously.
Erya was a little disappointed, and murmured, "It's a bit different from the monastery I imagined. Aren't there many monks chanting scriptures in the monastery? Why is it so deserted here? It's scary."
"Sister, I think there are monsters here?" Xiao Li looked around vigilantly, his small face was full of seriousness, and he pursed his mouth seriously, and those who didn't know really thought there were monsters.
Erya let out a snort, raised her hand and knocked on the forehead of her younger brother, "You idiot, monsters are most afraid of this place, and they come here to seek their own death."
"Buddhism is the most taboo to make noise, you two keep your voice down."
Wang Zhuangzhi, who had fastened the carriage, came over and said.
Er Ya and Xiao Li covered their mouths and didn't speak any more, they looked around with round eyes. Like them, there were Rong Qingyan and her maid, Magpie.
"Miss, do you think the place we are looking for is accurate? Why is Qing'an Temple so depressed?"
Magpie looked at this place with some doubts. How could a man as precious as Liu Gongzi raise his body in such a place.
Looking at the dilapidated Shimen, she curled her fingertips and pursed her lips in silence.
"Let's go, let's take a look inside." Wang Zhuangzhi whispered.
A group of people passed through the wooden door and stepped over one level after another. Their knees were a little sore and tired before they came to another vermilion wooden door.
At the same time, a young master who was carrying water happened to pass by, looked at them and asked, "Are you here to worship the Bodhisattva?"
"Exactly, little master, do you know where Master Xu Yi is?" Liu Zhihua asked with his hands together.
The little master heard that he was inquiring about the presiding officer again, so he shook his head and said: "If you want to worship the Bodhisattva, you can go to the courtyard by turning left at the small gate. As for our presiding officer, he entered the closed door to practice yesterday and saw no visitors."
Hearing this, Liu Zhihua and Wang Zhuangzhi looked at each other, feeling a little disappointed.
"Thank you, little master."
After speaking, Wang Zhuangzhi led his family and walked towards the direction pointed by the little master.
Rong Qingyan did not move, but stopped the little master and continued to ask: "Little master, do you know where Rong Liulang's practice is?"
Hearing that little master Rong Liulang's complexion changed, he hurriedly shook his head while holding the water, "I don't know, I'm a disciple outside the courtyard, so I can't enter the courtyard."
After finishing speaking, the person left in a hurry.
Magpie scratched his head and said in a low voice: "How can you talk about the Sixth Young Master, he is like a mouse seeing a cat, how can the Sixth Young Master be so scary."
"Don't talk too much." Rong Qingyan's voice was a little serious.
Magpie was so frightened that she hurriedly lowered her head, grabbed the hem of her clothes and said, "Miss, this slave is wrong."
"Okay, let's go to the yard first."
