Chapter 100: Monkhood

I have never met this Mrs. Jining, let alone have any friendship with her. Who asked her to come to talk to me? The number of people I know is also very limited.

Thinking of this, her heart skipped a beat and her palms suddenly became sweaty.

But in front of the Madam, she smiled calmly and followed Mrs. Jining out of the Madam's main room and to the east wing.

The maid served tea to the two of them, and Mrs. Jining smiled and said: Fourth Madam, I wonder if you know a woman named Duan Shuangying and a woman named Yuan Xueyi.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt

Although she vaguely guessed it, Eleven Niang was still shocked when it was confirmed.

I didn't expect that they had such nice names. However, since Mrs. Jining came to the door through Mrs. Tai and wanted to talk to her alone in front of everyone, and asked her straight to the point if she knew the two aunts, I thought she would come long ago.

Prepare.

She smiled slightly: One of my eldest aunt and my second aunt are named Yuan. I just don’t know if they are the two people you mentioned.

That's it. Master Jining said with a smile, the aunt said, Madam is a straightforward person, and asked me to find you, saying that you will definitely help them.

After deceiving everyone, including myself, why did the two aunts think that they would help her?

Eleven Niang looked at Master Jining with a smile and said nothing.

Mrs. Jining was not surprised by her attitude, but smiled and said: The two aunts said that they have believed in Buddhism for many years and sincerely want to become a monk and worship the Buddha. However, the mistress is afraid that troublesome people will gossip and think that the two

My aunt became a monk because she could not bear the mistreatment of her mistress. Therefore, she never agreed. After arriving in Yanjing with people from your mansion this time, she became disillusioned with the world of mortals, so she ran away from home and stayed in our temple. I don’t know if Madam knows.

I know Ciyuan Temple. Although Ciyuan Temple in Yanjing cannot be compared with Taoist temples such as Baiyun Temple of Huguo Temple, which are protected by monk Daolu Si, it is not an unknown place. Speaking of this, her face shed tears.

With proud expressions on their faces, the two aunts are literate and able to speak elegantly. With their support in our temple, they can not only devote themselves to practicing Buddhism, but also show their talents. My wife is now living in Yanjing and is not familiar with the place where she was born. Why not be a couple?

My aunt has opened the door to convenience, and it’s also about convenience.

These two aunts are really good at planning

Merely being able to read and write correctly, advance and retreat appropriately, and speak elegantly may not catch the eyes of this teacher.

I wonder how much incense money the two aunts donated to support the temple.

Eleven Niang looked at Master Jining calmly.

Jining chuckled: Madam is really a straightforward person. She only has five thousand taels of silver.

It took Eleven Niang a lot of effort to control herself from showing surprise.

Na Jining already smiled and said: Mrs. Yongping Hou would not take this money seriously, but to the two aunts, it is the merit of filial piety to the Bodhisattva. That's why she begged the poor nun to help her walk this way.

trip.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but feel sad for Aunt Yang.

At first, she thought Shiniang's bracelet contained silver notes, but later she found out it was arsenic. At that time, she was wondering where the money had gone or what it was used for.

Only at this point in the story do we have the answer.

If Shi Niang stays in Yuhang where the eldest master cannot see, she will only be dealt with by the eldest wife like a blunt knife. She might as well try her best and maybe there will be a way out. And the two aunts must be fooling themselves.

They seemed to have gained the trust of Aunt Yang, and together they devised a plan to trap Wei and rescue Zhao Jinchan from her shell. Aunt Yang used her death to attract the attention of others, and at the same time, she also hoped that the eldest wife would know that she was dead and would be able to save Zhao Jinchan.

With a trace of pity, the two aunts took the opportunity of attending the temple fair to take Shiniang away, and then went to Beijing together.

Shiniang's appearance was so coincidental that she had wanted to come to Yanjing for some time. But she didn't know who gave them the rumor.

Being entrusted by others is a matter of loyalty. If this is the case, why didn't the two aunts come forward to stop Shi Niang from marrying Wang Lang?

Jining seemed to be able to see through her thoughts and said with a smile: The two aunts also asked me to bring a message to the madam. They said that Miss Ten will get kindness if she asks for kindness, and she will get righteousness if she asks for justice. They are just weak women who want to survive.

Just a chance

Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile bitterly: After all, this is my mother's family's business, I'm afraid my mother has to make the decision.

That's natural. Jining smiled and said, it's just that since the eldest wife of the Luo Mansion can marry you to the Yongping Marquis Mansion, she must have thought a lot about it. Two aunts, it's not a pity to have too many, and it's not a pity to have too few. I want to come to this Luo Mansion.

The eldest lady can do it, but it is different for me, Ciyuan Temple. To have people like these two aunts who can talk to me, they must be very popular with the female relatives of high families. This is why I have to come to my lady to ask for help.

The reason for this grace.

She repeatedly emphasized that she loved her two aunts and welcomed them to become a monk at Ciyuan Temple. It seemed that she was determined to wade into this muddy water.

Eleven Niang can also understand.

If a temple wants to develop, it must have corresponding talents. Generally, monks are either because they live in poverty and have nothing to rely on, or they are discouraged by family changes. The former have no education, and later they are very indifferent to the world. Like the two aunts.

, I once read to the eldest master Tianxiang in the middle of the night, and his knowledge and conversation are extraordinary. He is still struggling to run away from home at such an age. He is afraid of being retaliated by the eldest wife if he disturbs her plan. I guess he also wants to start a new life.

Looking forward to it. For such two people to join Ciyuan Temple and donate a large amount of sesame oil money, Jining has to be the leader in every aspect. What's more, Shi Niang married into Maoguo Duke's Mansion, and she married into

In the Yongping Hou Mansion, the truth of the matter was revealed. Shiniang left home privately. She had such a rebellious sister. In the end, it was the two of them whose reputations were damaged, and it was Luo Mansion who suffered more losses than gains.

That's why Mrs. Jining dared to tell her so straightforwardly.

Since Madam has no objection, I will go to Luofu later. Master Jining’s goal has been achieved and she stood up with a smile. If Madam asks, I will say that the two aunts wanted to become a monk at Ciyuan Temple and asked me to do so.

Come and invite your wife to speak to the eldest wife of the Luo family. As for the rest, I will not mention a word.

I would also like to thank the Jining Master and her two aunts.

Eleven Niang was a bit dumbfounded.

She suddenly understood Xu Lingyi's helplessness.

That day in the courtyard, I knew clearly that it was a trap set by Yuanniang, and I knew clearly what the consequences would be, but for the sake of those people or things I was worried about, I could only jump into it helplessly.

Returning to the eldest lady, Mrs. Jining, as she said in the east wing, said that she was entrusted by the two aunts to invite the eleventh mother to speak in front of the eldest lady. She also said that the eleventh mother felt that the two aunts were monks.

My will was made up, and I was willing to fulfill it. After the wedding in January, I asked the Dowager Marquis about his wishes, and then chose a day to go back to his parents' home to discuss the affairs of his two aunts with his mother.

Although everyone felt a little surprised when they heard this, Master Jining's words were reasonable and it was a matter of Shi Yi's mother's family, so no one pursued it at this time.

Mrs. Jining talked for a while and then left. Mrs. Tai saw that it was getting late and went to the Buddhist hall with Mama Du. The others naturally dispersed.

When Eleven Niang returned to the house, she found Dongqing and told her Jining's intention.

You go back and tell Da Nai about this. Especially remind Da Nai that from the look of Jining, she has made up her mind to get involved in this matter. She also told her not to tell Da Maimai for the time being, but to tell Da Nai first.

, please give me a charter. See what I should do here.

Holly accepted the promise and left.

The eleventh mother called Mother Tao again: Can you pick some smart people? I still have two second-class maids, six third-class maids, and four rough assistants.

Tao's mother said hurriedly: Madam, don't worry and leave it to me. I'll bring him over to you in the afternoon.

Eleven Niang nodded and whispered: Can two or three people be sent to the study in the outer courtyard as errands?

As expected of Yuanniang’s person

Tao's mother was startled for a moment and then whispered in a low voice: The three young masters are studying at home, and there are several people there who we sent there. If you want to know anything, madam, just ask me. I won't be able to answer it for a while.

I can also send you a letter in the afternoon.

Eleven Niang shook her head slightly: Listening to the tone of the Marquis, I am afraid that she is looking for a suitable husband for the three young masters. At that time, there will definitely be a lecture hall in the study outside. Brother Zhun is six years old this year, and he is weak, so he will probably

I followed several brothers to study abroad for enlightenment. Madam Tai had no intention of leaving Brother Chen to me. Moreover, we are housewives after all, and we are not as knowledgeable as the men outside. If there is a good gentleman by my side to guide me all the time, both

Since we have the title and can supervise Brother Chen's conduct and knowledge, if anything happens, we can tell our husband and let him teach Brother Chen. Isn't it better than just me and you interfering randomly.

Tao's mother couldn't help but admire: Madam, this is a good idea. I understand. Let's do it. As she said that, she stood up hurriedly.

You don’t have to be in such a hurry. Eleven Niang said with a smile, firstly, the husband’s affairs have not been decided yet, and secondly, we are just preparing for fear of attracting people’s attention when the time comes. You know, there are three young masters who are reading together, it’s us

We wanted to see Brother Chen, but for those who didn’t know, we thought we were going to see the Second Young Master.

Tao's mother immediately nodded: Madam, don't worry, I can do it without you noticing. As she said that, she showed some hesitation. Even Wanxiang's place, there is still some trouble.

What do you think

Wanxiang came to me yesterday and told me that the kitchen in Dali and the other ten kitchens in the mansion all prepare dishes according to the order, and no more orders are allowed. If anyone wants to add dishes at last, they have to pay for it and the kitchen will make it separately. Mother Tao also

Afraid that Eleventh Mother wouldn’t understand, she explained that when my eldest aunt was in charge of the house, she allocated money according to the size of the kitchen, and she was somewhat conceited. Some kitchens used more in the first half of the month, and saved some in the second half.

.There was no such thing as an expense. The temporary extra dishes were expenses incurred, and naturally everyone paid for them themselves. But the third lady did this.

In this way, ten kitchens can buy groceries together. Eleven Niang answered the question with a smile. Kitchen shopping can make a fortune, right?

Tao's mother was stunned.

Eleven Niang's smile is still the same, gentle with a little kindness, but there is a calmness and calmness in her eyes. It seems to be saying, it's just a little trick, you don't need to panic

Mother Tao's face suddenly turned red.

In the blink of an eye, I actually wrote a hundred chapters onno haha~
Chapter completed!
