During the dinner, Tong Shanshan learned a lot from the occasional conversation between Cai Fu and Su Yixin.
The first one is that she is a rich woman.
Being able to buy two five-story houses at the foot of the emperor in the inner city and renovate them all at once was something that few wealthy households in the capital could afford, except for the dignitaries.
Second, although she is young, she has a fiancé.
Tong's eyes dimmed, but he quickly adjusted himself. Even if he had a fiancé, what would be the hindrance to repaying his kindness?
It would be nice to know where she is.
Before leaving, Liu Pingyu picked out some excellent earrings from her trousseau for Su Yixin.
"I know you are not short of money, but these are my thoughts. I hope my benefactor will not dislike them."
"Where, I like it very much."
After Su Yixin accepted it, Liu Pingyu added: "I just learned during the banquet that my benefactor has just come to Kyoto. Although we are just ordinary people, if it is needed, you can always greet me and we will do our best."
"Mrs. Tong is too polite."
No matter what Su Yixin thinks, Liu Pingyu will keep this kindness in her heart. After Su Yixin and her sister-in-law's family leave, she will solemnly admonish her only remaining son.
The husband died, as did the eldest son and the youngest daughter.
Fortunately, there is one left.
Liu Pingyu had something to rely on in her heart and thought about repaying her kindness. After she sobered up, she was not decadent.
On the second day, sacrifices were prepared to burn incense for the three deceased husbands.
After the Tong family's affairs were finished, Su Yixin returned to the previous inn. One day later, Su Yixin's drawings for the house were completed.
Cai Fu took the drawings and immediately asked people to start work.
With the Tong family's favor here, Su Yixin didn't need to say anything, Cai Fu would take care of the house properly and save a lot of money.
After the matter was settled, Su Yixin originally wanted to open another shop, but she didn't know that she happened to encounter Master Zeng's old house. This expenditure was equivalent to extra money. She naturally had enough money to open a shop, but the back of the shop needed The money is not enough.
You can't spend all your money. If you encounter an emergency and need money, that will be trouble.
Therefore, Su Yixin decided to wait until the house was renovated. In a few months, her Zhuangzi's autumn harvest income would come down, plus the income from the two finished shops in the past few months, and she would be able to plan the shop affairs, and her hands would be much fuller.
There is no need to keep an eye on the house, so there will be nothing wrong in Kyoto.
Su Yixin thought about returning to Dengfeng.
Unexpectedly, at this stall, she received a letter from Master Mingdao, inviting her to go to Daxiangguo Temple.
In other words, Mingdao knew that she was in Kyoto now, and he was either far away from Kyoto at the moment, or already at Daxiangguo Temple.
The messenger knew which inn she was staying at...
Su Yixin held the letter: "!!!"
He doesn't seem to have a close relationship with Ming Dao.
But it seems that in the past two years, Mingdao has been there at every critical period.
Especially when she first arrived, Ming Dao came to give her the Qiankun Glazed Mirror. Even now, she is still wary of it.
After reading the contents of the letter, I thought about it and decided to go to Daxiangguo Temple tomorrow.
There are some things that you can't escape by running away.
Daxiangguo Temple is a national temple, not outside the city, but in the inner city. The geographical location is very good. To the north is Jinlong Temple and Dawang Temple, and a little further south is Xiaotianshui Lane. If you start from Xiaotianshui Lane, based on Su Yixin's footsteps, you can't You can get there in two quarters of an hour.
To the east is Prime Minister Wang Qinruo's Mansion.
Wang Qinruo was a famous prime minister in the Northern Song Dynasty. Although he passed away, his reputation was well-known.
To the south is Lushi Lane, and to the west is the historically famous Imperial Street. According to Meng Yuanlao's "Tokyo Menghua Lu", this Imperial Street starts from Xuande Gate of the Imperial Palace in the north, passes through Zhouqiao and Zhuque Gate, and goes directly to Nanxun in the outer city. Door.
The entire Imperial Street is more than ten miles long and two hundred paces wide. It was used for the emperor's royal carriage to enter and exit. It is a customs clearance avenue on the north-south central axis of Tokyo. The main road used by the emperor to worship his ancestors and hold grand ceremonies in the southern suburbs was therefore called "Yu Street", also called "Yu Road".
On this royal road, ditches were dug on both sides. The ditches were filled with lotus flowers, and various fruit trees were planted on both sides.
On both sides of the river ditch, there is a black painted fork as a boundary. Pedestrians are not allowed to enter inside, but outside the fork is an activity area for ordinary people. Shops are open on the street, and people come and go, making it very lively.
The Daxiangguo Temple is right next to Yujie.
Su Yixin really didn't know much about the Daxiangguo Temple in her previous life. She only thought that temples and the like had to be built in the outer city or further away in order to show its mystery.
I never imagined it would be in such a prosperous area.
Standing at the foot of the Daxiangguo Temple, Su Yixin was still in a daze.
She asked the coachman next to her who had not left yet: "Is this really the Great Xiangguo Temple?"
The driver smiled and said, "Girl, can I still lie to you? The Daxiangguo Temple is such a big temple, no one else would dare to use this sign! The Daxiangguo Temple is open five times a month, and every open day, People come here to buy things, and today happens to be the open day, so there are a lot of people here!"
Su Yixin looked at the pedestrian street in front of her, which was equivalent to the pedestrian street in her previous life. No, the market was busier than the pedestrian street. She almost doubted her eyes. Is this the Daxiangguo Temple?
With the name of 'Royal Temple', it turns out to be a trading market?
Su Yixin nodded slowly, gave the driver the fare, and walked slowly through the lively market.
Not to mention Su Yixin, Qin Lian, who was following Su Yixin and had just transformed into a human form, was also stunned for a moment.
Luo Wushang wanted to go out for a walk, but Su Yixin stuffed it into his sleeve.
In this realm, she really didn't dare to let Luo Wushang do whatever he wanted.
However, Luo Wushang couldn't sit still. From time to time, he poked his head and looked around.
The market in Yuyuan Town and the market in Dengfeng County are nowhere comparable to the liveliness here. Looking at the goods for sale on both sides, they include the people's eating, drinking and entertainment.
After walking for a while, Su Yixin discovered that the things here were not in disorder, but were arranged very clearly.
For example, pots, pans, washing utensils are placed in one place, snacks and preserved fruits are placed in another place, as well as bows, arrows, saddles, etc. In short, the types are very complete. Even though these are all open-air, they are distinguished by tents of different colors. Open up and find the stall easily.
However, these stalls are all short-term, which means that if you come here this time, it may not be the next time.
Going further, the stalls near the Buddhist temple are fixed and very famous, such as Mengjia Daoguan, Wang Daoren Mijian, Zhao Wenxiu's pen, Pan Gu's ink, etc.
Su Yixin still found it quite interesting to sell Taoist things in front of the Buddhist house.
After all, the people who come here are all here for the Royal Temple. Who would think of buying Taoist things in this place.
