After time travel, I ate glutinous rice bran in ancient times

Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "That's good. I said that Painter Xiao Wang is a very smart and sensible person. He will not care about these trivial matters!"

"Yes, Painter Xiao Wang is right. Let's leave it at that. No need to mention it again." Old Madam Zhang also smiled and nodded.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Wang Yugui and asked, "Painter Wang, are you familiar with Dongmei?"

"We're not that familiar with each other, we just know each other. Madam Dongmei used to be an embroiderer at Lu's Embroidery Workshop."

"My younger sister is also an embroiderer at Lu's Embroidery Workshop, and I am also a painter at Lu's, so we know each other."

"Madam, why do you suddenly ask this?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly

I wondered why Mrs. Zhang suddenly asked this today?

Could it be that some rumors have reached the ears of the two ladies?

"Oh, so that's what Dongmei said." Mrs. Zhang nodded.

Then he looked at Wang Yugui again and said, "Master Painter Wang, I heard that you also wanted to go to the Ruan family to propose marriage? Is that true?"

"Ah? Madam, who told you this? How is that possible? It's absolutely not true!" Wang Yugui's head was buzzing. It seemed that the rumor had really spread to Zhang's house!

Madam Zhang smiled and said, "Master Painter Wang, you don't have to be nervous. We just heard about it and are a little curious, so we just asked casually."

"Actually, it's okay. It's normal for a girl from one family to be sought after by hundreds of families!"

"Madam, you are right, but the problem is that there is no such thing at all. It is a pure rumor!" Wang Yugui said hurriedly.

This matter must be explained clearly, otherwise if it is smoothed over, even the false will be said to be true.

Wang Yugui calmed himself down and smiled slightly: "The two ladies must have heard some rumors outside, right?"

"In fact, I have heard such rumors, and I know who spread them!"

"Oh, Painter Wang, do you know who spread the rumor?" Mrs. Zhang asked hurriedly after hearing what Wang Yugui said.

Wang Yugui said: "They are the two sons of the Ruan family, Ruan Dongmei's two younger brothers, Dabao and Erbao."

"Those two guys are a little bit stupid. They were bragging to others before, saying that many people like their sister and want to marry her."

"He even used me as an example, saying that the famous painter in the city, Xiao Wang, liked my sister!"

"Then the rumor spread. When it reached the two ladies, it became that I wanted to go to the Ruan family to propose marriage. It was all completely false!"

"Oh, so that's how it is. The two boys from the Ruan family are quite rough and fat. I don't like them very much either." Mrs. Zhang nodded after hearing this.

Madam Zhang also said, "Yes, those two guys don't look very smart. They just grow fat but not smart all day. It turns out that they are just bragging and talking nonsense outside!"

"Anyone with a bit of sense would never say such things about their sister in public."

"What the old lady said is absolutely right, that's the truth." Wang Yugui nodded in agreement

He looked at the two ladies and said, "Ladies, the fact is that I don't like Miss Ruan Dongmei at all."

"I've never thought about going to her house to propose marriage. I already have someone I like, and we'll probably get engaged next year!"

"Oh, really? Painter Xiao Wang, which girl did you take a fancy to?" Mrs. Zhang became excited after hearing this and asked hurriedly.

Wang Yugui smiled: "Old Madam, I can't tell you now. My future father-in-law won't let me tell you. You will know when the time comes!"

"Haha, Painter Xiao Wang, this matter needs to be kept secret." Mrs. Zhang also laughed.

……

When Wang Yugui left Zhang's house, he felt relaxed and spoke freely and openly.

After returning home and having dinner, Wang Yugui mentioned that he would go to Shuijing Temple early the next morning.

"Brother, I heard that Shuijing Nunnery is the largest nunnery in Wangtian County. Do the nuns also want to have their portraits made?" The second sister was curious.

The eldest sister glanced at her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? They didn't say they wanted me to paint portraits for the nuns!"

"Hey, sister, aren't there only nuns in the nunnery? If you're not painting portraits for nuns, are you painting portraits for monks?" The second sister laughed.

After hearing this, Wang said hurriedly, "Oh, Second Sister, don't talk nonsense!"

"Don't joke around with monks. If the nun invites your brother to come, there must be something going on. Stop making wild guesses!"

"Mother, I heard from others that the nuns in Shuijing Temple rarely go out. Their place is a quiet place and men from outside are generally not allowed to enter."

"No wonder we rarely see nuns in the city." The second sister listened and thought.

The eldest sister also nodded and said, "Compared to this, the nunnery is still more peaceful. It's not like the Dacheng Temple, where all kinds of people go to burn incense and worship Buddha every day!"

"It may not be quiet, but there are still female pilgrims going to the nunnery to burn incense," Wang Yugui laughed.

He added, "I heard that the women in Mr. Zhang's house often go to Shuijing Temple to burn incense!"

The second sister suddenly laughed: "Brother, you will be the only man entering the nunnery tomorrow, are you afraid?"

"Ah? What's there to be afraid of? I'm just going to do business, not to burn incense." Wang Yugui said this, but he was a little confused in his heart.

He had never been to a pure nunnery, not even in this world.

"Gui'er, when you go to Shuijing Temple tomorrow, bring your elder sister with you. It will be easier to talk to the nuns with a girl." Wang frowned slightly and said with a smile

Wang Yugui listened and nodded: "Okay, mom, I also thought of this."

Then he smiled and said to his elder sister, "Eldest sister, tomorrow morning, you and I will go to Shuijing Temple together!"

"Okay, brother, I want to go take a look too, hehe." The eldest sister laughed.

The second sister envied: "Oh, I haven't been to Shuijing Temple either, I want to go and see it too!"

"Hey, second sister, what's so interesting about a nunnery? I don't want to go there." Wang smiled and shook her head.

Wang Yugui laughed: "She just likes to join in the fun!"

……

Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Wang Yugui took his elder sister and prepared to leave the city for Shuijing Temple.

As soon as he left the house, he thought about it and turned back to call Ah Huang.

It was my first time to Shuijing Temple. I was unfamiliar with the place and it was outside the city, so I brought Ah Huang with me for safety.

After leaving the city and walking south, you will see a tall house, which is Shuijing Temple.

"Brother, is Shuijing Temple also built on the mountain? Why is it so high?" The eldest sister asked Wang Yugui while climbing the stone steps.

Wang Yugui smiled: "It seems so, but this is a small hill, not as big as the one near Dacheng Temple."

"Brother, it's quite cool on this hill. There are green trees everywhere, and the wind feels cooler than in the city." The eldest sister laughed again

Wang Yugui nodded: "Yes, this place seems to be a winding path leading to a secluded place, the environment is very good!"

The brother and sister crawled to the front of the nunnery, looked up, and saw the three big words "Shuijing Nunnery".
