The old lady's habit is to recite a sutra in front of the Bodhisattva every day before having breakfast. But yesterday, she opened the meridians for my grandmother, removed the depression, and prescribed some medicine to strengthen the spleen and stomach. In addition, my grandmother slept well. It's also very good. Today I brought a very appetizing medicinal diet, which is all based on the recipe of medicinal diet in the palace. Just one look at it will whet your appetite. The old lady's stomach is empty, so naturally she can't help but change her past habits.
An Xilin never expected that the old lady, who originally had no desire to eat and was about to become seriously ill, was in better health than before.
An Xiyue watched her movements calmly and sneered in her heart. In order to please her grandmother, An Xilin developed the same habits as her grandmother every day. She must have started a small stove today.
Suddenly, An Xiyue had a friendly smile on her face, and she said softly like a sister: "My sister also eats it. This vegetarian fish soup has no oil. All the nutrients are in the soup, so you won't gain weight."
While An Xiyue was talking, her hands were not idle. After a moment, a full bowl of soup and mashed fish was placed in front of An Xilin. At this time, An Xilin was tasteless and would not have had breakfast if she had known better.
An Xilin held back her anger, her voice was soft and melodious, her beautiful eyes were like crystal clear water, a look of shock suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "Oh, why did my sister ask my grandmother to eat meat? Buddhism emphasizes piety and respect. Isn’t this disrespectful to the Bodhisattva? The Buddha said that the more respect you have, the more merit you will have. Hey, I can’t blame my sister for this, I guess she doesn’t know either.”
Hearing what An Xilin said, the cheerful atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped to freezing point.
At this time, even Liu's mother was so shocked that she glared at the third lady. For the sake of the old lady's health, the old lady was really hungry, so she didn't mention anything to the eldest lady. Besides, she cares about the old lady far more than she cares about the Bodhisattva. The old lady has not had a good meal for several days. Today, she sees that the old lady has a great appetite. It is all the fault of the eldest lady. She is very happy. Know how to be grateful to the eldest lady.
However, the old lady pays most attention to worshiping Buddha and is also the most charitable. Perhaps it is to commemorate the old lady. The old lady did many good deeds during his lifetime and was the most honest official. After the old lady died, the old lady set up an ancestral hall in Ruixueyuan and was also devout to the Bodhisattva. Respectfully.
Upon hearing An Xilin's words, the old lady immediately put down the spoon in her hand, her face darkened, and she muttered: "Amitabha, don't blame the Bodhisattva."
An Xilin felt proud in her heart, but her eyes showed a compassionate heart that was guilty of eating meat. Now she was afraid that in order to please her grandmother, her eldest sister would flatter her on horseback, violating her grandmother's taboo. Let's see what her grandmother did. Punish her.
This table of medicated meals was originally made by Feng’s mother under the guidance of the eldest lady. For generations, Feng’s mother’s family has been eating with pots and spoons, but when she came here, she couldn’t live alone as a woman. The man in the family died. She still had two children raised in her brother's house. She went to the Hou Mansion to look for work. Now she was afraid that she would lose her job. If she were kicked out, what would happen to her two children?
She had been frightened all her life, and now her legs were even weak from fear.
He knelt down with a "thud" sound, trembling with fear, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Jiang Shuang also broke into a cold sweat because of the eldest lady, and her back was soaked. The eldest lady was so smart, how could she violate the old lady's taboo.
Mother Liu looked at the old lady's face, and her face was obviously very ugly. She seemed to be alienated from the eldest lady. The third young lady's instigation of discord was just right. This was to separate the old lady and the eldest lady from the ancestral and grandson relationship.
"Mama Liu, please order people to remove all these." The old lady's tone was slightly colder.
An Xiyue's expression was as usual, her eyes were firm, and she didn't show any signs of panic. She secretly praised An Xilin for having such a clever mouth. No wonder she had coaxed her around in her previous life.
Firstly, he took advantage of her grandmother's devotion to the Buddha and framed her to make her break the taboo, so that her grandmother would definitely alienate her; secondly, she said that she didn't understand anything and was a complete idiot. So what if she could write well? Writing well doesn't mean she has talent.
"Grandma, my sister has misunderstood Yue'er. Yue'er is always filial to grandma." An Xiyue knelt at the feet of the old lady with a face filled with grievances, with a sincere expression and her clear and bright eyes staring at the old lady's slightly angry face. Eye.
At the same time, the first lady, the second lady, and the third lady slowly opened the curtains and came in with their daughters, smiling brightly. They all had smiles on their faces, as if they were sisters-in-law and sisters.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw such a scene. Suddenly, everyone fell silent. The others looked at An Xiyue's joke with cold eyes. Only the eldest lady felt that the atmosphere was wrong. It seemed that Yue'er had made the old lady unhappy.
"Daughter-in-law, please give my regards to the old lady." Immediately, the three ladies respectfully saluted the old lady.
"My granddaughter wishes my grandmother good wishes. I hope she will be blessed with good health." An Xiyuan, An Xixuan, and An Xiyan, all dressed as gorgeously as delicate flowers, expressed their greetings to the old lady respectfully and loudly.
The old lady's face softened slightly, but her eyes were cold: "Forget it, Mother Liu will bring the stools for you ladies."
Mother Liu ordered the people to place the soft stools in order, her eyes full of anxiety. This eldest lady is also a kind person, and she is afraid that she will be ridiculed by all the ladies at this time.
The second lady's face was filled with joy. Originally, they had arranged to come together to ask the old lady for instructions on going to the Duke Protector's Mansion for a banquet. Today they had to make a decision. At this time, they happened to catch the eldest lady's mistake. She And more than happy to follow along with a good kick.
Although the third lady was proud, she did not dare to show it too clearly on her face. She just watched the changes and reaped the benefits.
"Mom, the eldest sister violated my grandmother's taboo because Lin'er usually forgot to tell her." An Xilin came over to hold the eldest lady's arm, as if she was her biological mother.
Mei Yunluo glanced at An Xilin lightly, lacking her usual gentleness. If she hadn't known about Lin Wan's mother and daughter's pretense, she would have scolded her daughter before the morning and said lightly: "Your sister is so It’s also to honor the old lady.”
The second lady wore a flamboyant bright red brocade cotton-padded jacket, and her hair was also styled in a flying cloud bun, which complemented the colors of her clothes. She had a smile on her face and glanced at the fish soup and a bunch of delicious food on the small table. She was immediately After understanding the reason, this is a taboo that everyone in the Hou family avoids. He seemed to blame: "Why is the eldest lady so ignorant, and you still need your sister to give you some advice?"
Behind the second lady, An Xiyan was also wearing a pink dress, puffing out her cheeks as if she was very angry: "Eldest sister got carried away just because she won some rewards yesterday. When did my grandmother eat dizzy food while chanting sutras? Isn’t this intentional to embarrass my grandmother in front of the Bodhisattva?”
