The sun sets in the west, the sky is filled with red clouds, and the floating mist fills the world. The Linhuai Marquis Mansion is also misty in this sunset mist.
In the backyard of Linhuai Marquis Mansion, the little maid Baozi held her face and dozed off little by little. She would wake up after three or five times. When she saw the young lady sitting at the table by the window, I was still copying Buddhist scriptures seriously and devoutly, but I felt relieved and fell asleep and woke up again with fear.
The little maid Baozi is really sleepy.
Last night, the annoying Wei Guogong's Mansion next door set off firecrackers all night long, which scared everyone's little hearts to the point of beating out of their chests. It was so noisy that few people in the Linhuai Marquis Mansion could fall asleep, and the young lady also stayed up all night. The sound of firecrackers finally stopped in the morning, and the master, lady, and servants in the mansion also took time to catch up on last night's sleep during the day.
However, the young lady did not catch up on her sleep after getting up in the morning. Apart from sending a hundred-year-old Changbai Mountain ginseng to her uncle, the young lady had been sitting on the table piously copying Buddhist scriptures, saying that she would give them to the uncle and his wife who were away. An elder brother copied scriptures and prayed for blessings. The young lady didn't even sleep, so the little maid Baozi couldn't sleep either. She had to wait on her, so this made the little maid Baozi feel sleepy little by little.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines in front of the window. The mist outside the window and the burning incense inside the window add a hazy beauty to the beauty in front of the window. She is wearing a slim-fitting floor-length skirt with plum blossoms embroidered with red silk thread. There is a cyan ribbon tied in the middle, and the black hair is styled in a pony bun. The bun is decorated with exquisite lily pendants. It is elegant and enchanting, and enchanting is elegant.
The beautiful lady held a hairpin brush in her slender hand, her big watery eyes focused on the pen, and she meticulously copied Buddhist scriptures on the snow-white rice paper, very piously and seriously.
"The Sutra of Avalokitesvara of the Great Compassion and Great Compassion: Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, the Prajna Paramita, the mind is at ease, the relics and all Dharmas have no form, and the heart has what it wants..."
The Buddhist scriptures flow out from Li Shu's pen, and the rows of hairpin flowers are like a refreshing spring in the mountains slowly flowing down from the foothills full of snow lotus flowers, which makes people read twice. Feel comfortable.
Except for this Buddhist scripture in my hand. There is also a thick stack of rice paper full of Buddhist scriptures on several cases. The words on it are also "The Great Compassion and Great Compassion Avalokitesvara Sutra". Every word is a neat stroke, every sentence is neat. Arranged neatly. Every piece of paper looks comfortable.
It can be seen how serious and pious Yu Rener was in copying Buddhist scriptures on this day.
The beautiful woman was copying Buddhist scriptures devoutly and conscientiously, her red lips were slightly opened, and she seemed to be saying something silently. Look at the girl's mouth shape. It seems that he is silently reciting scriptures and praying to make wishes, but the last three words of each wish seem to be "stinking toad"...
This is the habit of the ancients. In ancient times, people often copied Buddhist scriptures to pray for blessings, especially girls. They prayed for their parents, for their husbands, for... This was also influenced by Buddhism. There is such a passage in the Diamond Sutra. : "If there is another person who hears this sutra and has unwavering faith, his blessings will be greater than that of others. Not to mention writing, upholding, reading, reciting, and explaining to others!" In their view, copying and reciting Buddhist sutras are blessings, and they can accumulate blessings and pray for them. , the more pious, the more effective it will be.
The girl is pious and takes every word into her heart.
"Miss, miss."
While the girl was copying carefully, there was suddenly a rush of footsteps in the yard, accompanied by a little girl's drawn-out voice and the sudden sound of the door opening.
The sudden sound caused the girl who was writing devoutly to smear a word. The girl looked at the smudged word. He couldn't help but frown, and looked at the person coming from the door coldly with a pair of watery eyes.
The little maid Baozi, who was nodding and dozing off, was also awakened by the sudden sound. Her bun face looked as if she had been frightened. The little chubby man covered his rapid heartbeat with his hands and looked towards the door.
"Miss. Miss, my uncle is back from the exam..."
The little maid who came in was so frightened that she shivered when she saw her young lady's cold eyes. What she said next was so frightened that she almost swallowed it back in her stomach.
However, as if it was an illusion, the little girl finished speaking tremblingly. It felt as if the cold eyes of my young lady had melted all of a sudden, as if the coldness just now was just an illusion caused by her brain as she ran too fast and was out of breath.
"What, my uncle is back~~" Baozi's little maid was so excited when she heard this that her sleepiness disappeared.
"Forget it this time. If you are so reckless next time, be careful with your skin." Li Shu put down the brush in her hand, glanced at the girl who came in, and said calmly.
"Thank you, miss. I don't dare to do it anymore." The little girl at the door wiped the cold sweat on her head and nodded repeatedly.
"Miss~~Miss~~ let's go see my uncle. I wonder how my uncle did in the exam." The little maid Baozi couldn't sit still after hearing the news that Zhu Ping'an had returned from the exam.
"Why are you so anxious? He can't run away..." Li Shu's beautiful eyes turned and she pouted her lips. She stood up unhurriedly and straightened her slender hands. She moved her lotus steps lightly and carefully placed the copied Buddhist scriptures on the bookshelf. She was as elegant as a fairy who could not eat the fireworks of the world, but the corner of her mouth could not help but evoke a sweet smile.
The little maid Baozi stuck out her tongue and blushed with embarrassment.
Li Shu put down the Buddhist scriptures, washed and changed into a set of clothes, then led the little maid Baozi, two other girls and two old ladies out of the courtyard and walked towards the front yard.
The Marquis of Linhuai's Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the Marquis of Linhuai also rushed back to the mansion in the afternoon and arranged for a banquet to be prepared in the mansion to welcome Zhu Ping'an after he returned from the imperial examination. When he returned to the mansion, Marquis Linhuai happened to see the naughty kid playing with the little Lolita with his butt raised in the dirt. When the naughty kid turned around and saw his father with a dark face, he almost peed his pants on the spot without being frightened. Fortunately, when the Marquis of Linhuai wanted to arrange a banquet, the naughty boy was only yelled at. Even then, the naughty boy was frightened.
Zhu Pingan returned to Linhuai Marquis Mansion in the evening. He chatted with Wang Shizhen and Zhang Siwei for a long time on the way. Zhang Siwei was relatively calm, but Wang Shizhen was extremely excited. He kept talking about Emperor Jiajing all the way. Xiongfeng regained his reputation as a wise master, saying that he couldn't help but mention ten suggestions for governing the country in one breath on the test paper. It seems that Wang Shizhen still has a strong scholarly spirit in his heart. The families of Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen are still staying in the capital temporarily. If they were not afraid that their families would be impatient, they could hold Zhu Ping'an and chat all night.
The Linhuai Marquis Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and a sumptuous dinner was specially prepared to welcome him. Zhu Ping'an was a little uncomfortable with the warm welcome after entering the mansion.
After ten years of being cold and no one asked, he became famous all over the world in one fell swoop. The ancients were honest and could not be deceived. (To be continued.)
