old lady in red

Shi Mei shook her head: "They didn't come looking for me, but Yinglian's father arrived."

Jin Da was relieved when he heard the words: "These Taoist priests are talking nonsense, this girl Yinglian is our favor, how can we owe him?"

Shi Mei said: "These outsiders are somewhat different from us, don't worry about him, you can send Feng's mother and daughter to the front yard yourself."

Shi Mei went back to explain the whole story to Feng Shi, and asked Lai Nanny and Jin Shan's daughter-in-law to accompany their mother to the Chuihuamen.

Shi Mei stopped watching.

Mother Jin Dalai will tell them about the meeting when she comes back, so there is no need to waste spiritual energy.

It's not surprising that Zhen Shiyin came here, but Shi Mei was surprised, along with the monks.

Could it be that this monk is still not reconciled and wants to turn Baoyu into a monk?

In this life, Baoyu basically changed his hobbies except for liking young and beautiful girls.

He is willing to study and take the imperial examination.

He likes sister Lin, but he doesn't agree with her life and death.

He also likes Xiangyun, Baochai and Xue Baoqin even more.

Shi Mei went to Yan Hou's house as a guest, but met Xue Baoqin.This girl is smart and beautiful, and she is cute wherever she goes.

The Mei family loves her very much.

However, because Xue Baoqin was dealt with by Yuan Chun.

She was a little afraid of the girls in Rongfu.

The Yingchun sisters are also unwilling to play with Xue Baoqin because Xue Wangshi instigated Wang Shi to scold Tanchun's mother.

However, there is a new theory about the marriage between the Xue family and the Mei family.

It was when the second master of the Mei family and the second master Xue exchanged their jade pendants.

Because Xue Baoqin's mother was about to die, Xue Biao asked the Mei family to take it to the Mei family, hoping that the Mei family would take care of their siblings.

Especially arrange a reliable marriage for Xue Baoqin.

However, when this matter came to Xue Wang's mouth, it became that the Xue family was related to the Mei family.

This matter, Shi Mei thinks it is believable.

Why?

If there is a marriage, at least the horoscopes of the two children should be exchanged.

If there is a marriage, and Mrs. Xue entrusts Xue Wang, she must have the man's birth date in her hand.

Sure enough, Wang Xue had already taken the opportunity to make trouble.

The Xue family needs support too much now.

However, the Mei family picked up Xue Biao, but the Xue Wang family did not dare to come to the door to argue.

She only dared to spread rumors secretly.

Now, news of the Mei family's ungrateful repentance of their marriage has spread in a small area.

I'm afraid the censor also smelled the fishy smell.

Once the Xue Wang family comes out, the imperial censor will definitely get involved.

The Mei family can only endure now.

Everything in this world is easy to owe, but the debt of favor is not easy to owe.

If Mrs. Xue had the intention to blackmail before, things would be even worse.

She was the benefactor's widow, and the Mei family really couldn't explain when they started making a fuss.

Shi Mei is in deep thought here, the mother and daughter of the Feng family have returned.

Feng's mother and daughter knelt down and kowtowed: "Thanks to the ancestor, our family is an elm, he said he would take care of our mother and daughter.

But he didn't want to return to vulgarity, saying that he had already entered Taoism, and he couldn't play games in front of the patriarch.

He also said that teaching can marry a wife and have children, so that Yinglian and I can also enter the Tao.

What are you talking about, Yinglian is a good girl, if she joins Taoism, won't she delay her life? "

On the other hand, Ying Lian comforted her softly: "My daughter thinks that father's arrangement is very good.

Our family has no foundation, the Taoist temple has land, and our family reunion can still be protected by the Taoist temple.

If there are no villains to disturb us, what's wrong?

A daughter is willing to serve her father and mother all her life. Does the mother dislike her daughter? "

Shi Mei nodded: "As long as the Taoist temple can accept your family, it's fine.

Marriage is not necessarily forbidden in Taoist temples. The first generation of our ancestors was a Taoist priest in Wudang Mountain. Didn’t he make great achievements later?

It can be seen that it is true that this Taoist priest can marry a wife.

If the Taoist master can marry, the Taoist nun will naturally be able to marry. "

Zhen Shiyin's arrangement for her daughter should be the best place for her at the moment.

After staying for three to five years, Zhen Yinglian healed her pain.

Zhen Shiyin also accumulated money.

At that time, the family returned to vulgar life, found a son-in-law for the elderly, and lived comfortably for a lifetime.

Feng wiped away tears: "My natal family is also unreliable, and that's all there is now."

Shi Mei told Jin Da: "Since Master Zhen is here, arrange the three of them in Dongyuan Garden.

It's freezing cold now, and it won't be too late for us to go south after the new year and the weather is warmer. "

Jin Dao said: "Madam, please come with this old slave."

Zhen Yinglian cried and said goodbye to Shimei.

Shi Mei said quickly: "Go and talk to your father first, when your things are short, someone will pack them up and send them to you."

The mother and daughter of the Feng family thanked each other and left.

Shi Mei ordered Yuanyang to pack their luggage with them, and packed them in a camphorwood box with a brass lock on the back.

These will be the luggage of their mother and daughter from now on.

Then, one monk and one still asked to meet the old lady of Rongfu.

Naturally, Shi Mei would not meet these outsiders, so she sternly refused.

Then, Jin Da came in to report, saying that the monks stayed at the door together, saying that the Rong Mansion owed them something, and there was a commotion outside the circle of people watching.

These rascals!

Shi Mei said: "Tell them, I'm waiting at Cuiwei Mountain."

Jin Dao: "Really let them in?"

Shi Mei said: "No need, just tell them like this."

Since these two are the apprentices of Fairy Jing Huan, they can go up the mountain by themselves.

Cuiwei Mountain, which is less than [-] feet high, cannot be climbed, so what kind of disciples are you?

After Shi Mei was dressed, she put on a sable cloak, and then went up to Cuiwei Mountain in a sedan chair.

Shi Mei was afraid that being in the mansion would frighten the children.

Shi Mei stopped the sedan chair beside the bamboo forest at the foot of Cuiwei Mountain.

On the top of the mountain lived Shan Ziye and Jia Zheng's guest ministers, who frightened them badly.

One monk and one have some skills, and they even galloped down from the top of Cuiwei Mountain.

Shi Mei said: "The two of you kept begging to see each other again and again, why did you come here?"

One monk and one even came to ask Shimei to ask for the old things.

Shi Mei smiled and asked: "I have never met you, when did I owe you something?"

The monk said: "Ming people don't speak secret words, Madam has stolen our psychic jade, please return the original."

Shi Mei secretly smiled.

The Lingtong in Lingtong Baoyu has been collected in her Niwan Palace.

Fairy Jing Huan still wanted to absorb Rong Mansion's luck, but that was a dream.

The lame Taoist suddenly yelled loudly: "What a lonely ghost, actually came to the world to make trouble, eat me with a sword."

The Taoist speaks with a sword.But it is a talisman.

Jin Da was furious when he heard the words: "Well, you stinky Taoist priest, I begged you repeatedly just now, and I passed on the message for you, but now you dare to commit murder and hurt others, the stinky Taoist priest will kill me first..."

Shi Mei didn't believe that a piece of talisman paper could hurt herself.

She is a living person, the Emperor Longsha has seen her before, so she is afraid of a Maoshan Taoist priest?

If she was real, Shi Mei would still be a little afraid.

Shi Mei stopped Jin Da and asked the Taoist priest, "You say I'm a lonely ghost, what proof do you have?"

The lame Taoist said: "It's proof that the Taoist Taoist took you in, a lonely ghost."

Shi Mei said: "You can see clearly, I am the court's super high-ranking wife, you have to think twice, if not, don't blame me for being rude!"

The lame Taoist said: "As long as you dare to take my sword, everything will be clear."

Shi Mei sneered: "So what if you can't accept me?"

The lame Taoist said: "Leave it alone!"

Shi Mei suddenly remembered that some people told ghost stories, were seduced by the king of hell by mistake, went to the underworld, and bargained with the king of hell.

Shi Mei said: "It's a deal!"

Shi Mei dispersed Jin Da and his party: "You guard the mountain road and don't let them escape."

Taoist Pozu gesticulated a few times, and the talisman paper spontaneously ignited.

Then, the broken foot Taoist pointed to Shi Mei and made gestures.

"Old Lord, teach me to kill ghosts

……

What god does not surrender, what ghost dares to block, rushing like a law. "

Shi Mei saw that the talisman sword spontaneously ignited and could fly freely.

This is no longer the category of science, it belongs to the way of gods and ghosts.

Shi Mei was a little flustered, she is a soul traveler, will it affect her?

Shi Mei gathered her spiritual power in her palm, ready to jump up and give him another blow from Tianling Gai.

Make him undead and peel off his skin.

Unexpectedly, when Shi Mei was about to fly up, a golden light suddenly flew out from her waist.

In the blink of an eye, the lame Taoist priest had already been bitten by the talisman sword, hit his chest, fell into the dust, and his mouth and nose were bleeding.

Shi Mei's eyes were sharp, and she clearly saw the golden light shoot out from the Panlong jade pendant.

Shi Mei touched the dragon jade pendant with mixed feelings in her heart, she couldn't believe it.

Can Panlong Yupei protect the Lord by itself?

The lame Taoist seemed to be seeing a ghost, with fear in his eyes: "Impossible, impossible, you are a mortal, how can you have merit?"

Shi Mei held up the Panlong Jade Pendant: "Did you mean this?

So that you stinky Taoist will know that this is the Panlong jade pendant that I planted sweet potatoes and was rewarded by His Majesty.

The emperor's mouth contains the constitution of heaven, how can you and other heretics be able to shake it? "

One by one, the monks were used to being godly and divine, and at this moment they were paralyzed to the ground in fright.

The Taoist vomited blood again and again, and couldn't speak.

The monk clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, I am rude, don't blame the benefactor..."

Shi Mei sneered: "You come to the door to yell, beat and kill, don't you just say a word of Buddha?

What a monk who saves all sentient beings, believe it or not, I sent you to Shuntian Mansion to accuse you of trespassing on private houses, murdering the imperial order, calling you a Taoist monk, and you will be notorious from then on? "

The lame Taoist struggled to his feet: "Poverty Dao is reckless, and I am willing to admit defeat."

Shi Mei said: "Okay, let me ask you first, why did Fairy Jing Huan deal with my Rongguo Mansion?"

The lame Taoist said: "What do you, an ordinary person, know, that you dare to insult the fairy girl?"

Shi Mei asked back: "Since Aunt Xiangu is high above you, mentioning it is blasphemy, why can't the fairy sword she gave you hurt me?

What does this mean?

It shows that there is a way of heaven in this world, and the way of heaven is illuminated by holy candles.Tiandao thinks that your police fairy made a mistake, which made her fairy talisman lose its effect, doesn't it? "

The lame Taoist sneered, but was speechless to refute.

The talisman sword was what he asked for from the fairy.

However, he is not a disciple of the fairy.

He wanted to be the fairy's apprentice, so he helped the fairy.

Unexpectedly, this folk woman destroyed it.

As for who is right and who is wrong, he really doesn't know.

However, Heaven does exist.

The lame Taoist was also a little confused.

Could it be that Fairy Jing Huan arranged for these people to go down to the mortal world and bring down Rong Mansion in the end, is it against the law of heaven?

Rong Mansion's vitality is not exhausted?

The lame Taoist knew that Jing Huan Fairy had profound mana, and could use mana to go back in time, so he shouldn't be wrong in his deduction.

But where did this loophole appear?

The lame Taoist looked at the woman in front of him, could it be because of this lonely ghost?

The lame Taoist could tell that the lady of the country was not reincarnated, but was seized.

However, the soul fit is perfect.

This is also because he insisted on meeting in person, and only realized after checking in person.

The appearance of this person is different from the appearance of the soul. The soul does not match the body, and it can only be the soul.

The point is that Jia's ancestral hall does not exclude this soul.

He didn't believe in evil, believed in his own judgment, and wanted to forcibly strip her soul, which was the backlash.

He cultivated the righteous way but suffered backlash.

The lame Taoist also knows that ghosts and ghosts do not possess meritorious deeds.

This merit is definitely not owned by the original owner, and those who have merit will never be taken away.

The lame Taoist was also a little confused.

Seeing their silence, Shi Mei sneered, "Are you trying to cheat?"

The monk recited a Buddha: "This question is beyond our understanding, so I can't answer it. Please give me another way to deal with it?"

Shi Mei sneered: "One problem counts as a solution? Monk, are you trying to confuse the public?"

The monk clasped his hands together, lowered his head and said, "The benefactor misunderstood."

Shi Mei said: "Then show the sincerity of your apology."

The monk said: "The benefactor should understand that we are walking around barefoot and penniless."

Shi Mei said: "Penniless?

People in Taoism have their own magic weapon. If you don’t want to make amends, just say so. If you pretend to be confused, you have to go to Shuntian Mansion to explain why you broke into a famous house. "

The lame Taoist sneered: "What a big tone, how dare you covet my Taoist treasure."

Shi Mei retorted: "I marked the price clearly, it's better than some people who are superficial on the surface but stealthily, wanting to steal the century-old luck of my Rongfu."

The lame Taoist was stunned: "You, how did you know?"

Shi Mei said: "This has nothing to do with you, you should pay compensation quickly, or go to Shuntian Mansion."

The monk said: "Please ask the benefactor to speak clearly. As long as it does not endanger the common people and the community, I will follow my orders."

Shi Mei sneered again: a guy who stole other people's luck, actually talked about the people of the country.

Isn't Duke Rong a commoner?

Shi Mei said: "Our Changchun Temple here will give the common people cooling charms, mosquito repellent charms, headache charms, plague repellent charms, cleaning charms, and water diversion charms every year.

Don't worry, I'm not greedy, and I won't want your Ascension Art.

I just need these things for daily use, and you can just give me three hundred sheets. "

The lame wanted to curse, he had three hundred such talisman papers, and he still came out to eat hundreds of meals?

Drinking a drink and tricking the apprentice to ask for it, just sit at home and meditate.

The monk smiled: "Why don't Madam take us in for a while and lend us the Cuiwei Mountain as a dojo. After a year or so, we will have all these things."

Shi Mei sneered: "For a year and a half, my Cuiwei Mountain was looted by you, right?

I know your rules, and if I agree, you can take whatever you want.

If I don't agree, you are stealing.

Taoism prides itself on being well-known and upright, and disdains chickens and dogs to steal.Also, Taoism has its teachings, there is no reason or enmity, and you cannot use magic in the mortal world, otherwise you will be backlashed by the oath.

I want you to swear now that if you steal things from my mansion, let alone this life, you will not be able to cultivate the righteous way in eight lives. "

After blushing for a while, the lame Taoist and the monk swore an oath.

The lame Taoist hummed and walked away: "One year, next year today, I will pay off the debt."

Shi Mei did not seek compensation from the monk.

However, the monk left a scroll of scriptures and left.

But it is □□German Classic.

Shi Mei wanted to throw it back.

The monk and the Taoist priest had gone far away.

Shi Mei looked through them slowly, and found that they were all in traditional Chinese characters, and there were pictographs in the shape of animals.

In the end, a few pages of scriptures like yellow paper were attached, which contained some small spells and various talismans.

Shi Mei knew that these were talisman seals, but didn't know the meaning of these talisman seals.

She was not prepared to delve into it, let alone let the children practice.

This kind of thing may not be able to grasp the context in a lifetime, only wasting time.

Ordinary people are not good enough to eat this bowl of rice, if they fall into it, they will be useless.

This is also the reason why Shi Mei didn't ask for formulas, only finished products.

Shi Mei immediately hid the scriptures at the top of Jia Zheng's study.

Jia Zheng didn't even bother to practice Qi Wang, so it didn't matter if he discovered it.

The next day.

Zhen Shiyin went out in the morning and returned to Rong Mansion in the afternoon. The family of three came to say goodbye to Shi Mei.

Zhen Shiyin can also be regarded as a relative of Rongfu.

Shi Mei received their family of three, mainly to find out where the monks went.

Zhen Shiyin said that his master placed the order in Changchun Temple, and he borrowed a courtyard in Changchun Temple to arrange for Feng's mother and daughter to stay in Kyoto for a while.

Shi Mei ordered to put away the bedding, luggage, clothes and cages used by Feng's mother and daughter, and let them take them away.

Before leaving, Shi Mei gave Feng Shi 200 taels of silver as their travel expenses back home.

Mrs. Zhang also presented 100 taels of silver.

Shui Ling, Ye Jun, and Hu Yanran all gave 50 taels.

Mrs. Zhang also gathered some silks and satins suitable for little girls to make clothes for Yinglian.

The Feng family's mother and daughter walked out of the gate of Rong Mansion.

Before getting into the car, the three of them bowed to Rongfu, and then boarded the green mule cart that Zhen Shiyin rented.

Jin Da escorted them all the way, until the family entered Changchun temple and was taken in by Zhike monk, then Jin Dafang returned to the business.

This family left the Rong Mansion in mighty force and entered the Changchun Temple.

No matter how concubine Zhen Guifei thinks about it, she can't do anything wrong.

In early February, the second wife of the Xue family went to Beijing.

Accompanied by Mrs. Mei, Mrs. Xue went to Rongfu, kowtowed to Shi Mei, and explained the entanglement between the Mei family and the Xue family.

Mrs. Xue Er asked her son to take the jade pendant given to Master Xue by the second master of the Mei family, and asked the Mei family to arrange a marriage for Xue Biao and Xue Baoqin.

Unexpectedly, her sister-in-law misunderstood, thinking that having a relative meant an engagement.

Mrs. Xue Er also explained: "At that time, the elder sister-in-law wrote home, saying that the Rongfu was related to the Mei family, and maybe the Mei family would agree to help because of Rongfu's sake.

The Xue family has a jade pendant in their hands. As long as it works well, the Xue family's plight will be solved. "

Shi Mei asked, "What predicament?"

The Second Mrs. Xue said: "Our Xue family is an imperial merchant, so the family was going to rob this job.

The sister-in-law said that she went to Beijing to find someone to resolve it, but before she was ready, the eldest nephew beat him to death, and the eldest family went to Beijing in a panic.

Later, my sister-in-law wrote to me at home, saying that the business in Kyoto was not going well, she was squeezed out by others, and she lost tens of thousands of silver.

He also said that Pan'er was murdered and dispatched to Mobei.

Kyoto is unsupported.

Now the two can only be supported by Xue Biao, so I must help.

I also took out the jade pendant for the sake of my children's future, and hoped that the relatives of the Mei family would help.

First, to help the family resolve the crisis.

Secondly, it is also for my two children to arrange a good marriage.

I never thought that the Mei brothers would actually save my life. "

The Second Mrs. Xue ordered the Xue scorpion Xue Baoqin brothers and sisters to kowtow to Shi Mei again and apologize: "I'm really sorry for causing such trouble to the mansion."

Mrs. Xue Er was very angry when she learned of Yuan Chun's words, but she hated Xue Wang even more.

Before she died, Xue Wang dared to abuse her two sons and daughters like this.

At that time, the Mei family went to find her and hired an imperial physician for her.

She was able to recover, firstly because of the superb medical skills of the imperial physician, and secondly because of her strong desire to survive.

Mrs. Xue Er sold all the shops in the south of the Yangtze River to her tribe, and now she is going to Beijing to open a silk shop to make a living.

Mrs. Mei revealed that she had told Xue Biao about her marriage.

The other party is the niece of the natal family of Mrs. Mei's family, who lives in Zhili, where she farms and studies.

The woman's father worked as a camper in the Ministry of Industry.

The official is not big, but it is enough to support the door.

On the sixth day of February, Xue Biao made a small appointment.

Mrs. Xue Er prepared the small ceremony with great care: a complete set of red gold jewelry, a complete set of gold inlaid jade.

There is also a box of brocade cloth clothes.

A box of South Pearls.

Although it is the South Pearl, it is not as good as the East Pearl, but it is already very precious.

After Xue Biao gets married, he will continue to study.

After all, he is only 16 years old, and after three years, he really can't read, find another job, or continue to do business.

This is also not able to immediately seize the imperial merchant qualification of the big house, it is too conspicuous.

It is another matter to take it back from others in the future.

After Second Mrs. Xue came to apologize, Shui Ling was relieved.

In fact, Shimei and Zhang didn't blame her for this matter.

But Shui Ling has been urging this matter because everyone is unhappy in the new year.

Second Mrs. Xue came to explain, which was also requested by Shui Ling.

Otherwise, she felt that what the grandma in charge did was a little unreasonable.

On the eighth day of February, the third watch.

The whole family of Rongfu sent Jia Cong to the Gongyuan.

Although Gongyuan Maozheng will only open the dragon gate, candidates have to line up in advance, so they cannot delay the ninth grade exam.

Shimei, Zhang's water spirit, Ye Yun, welcome the spring and cherish the spring. These female relatives are only sent to the Chuihuamen.

Jia Zhu and Jia Lian sent Jia Cong to the Gongyuan all the time.

Then, Jin Shan waited opposite the Gongyuan with two servants.

Although Jia Cong was in good health, Juren fainted in the Gongyuan every year, so he had to guard against it.

Jia Cong entered on the ninth day of the junior high school, took three exams, and appeared on the evening of the [-]th.

During the two times when I went home, I fell asleep, but there was nothing wrong with my body.

After Jia Cong slept for a day and a half, he lazily went to Cuiwei Mountain to write the test paper silently.

Jia Cong's achievements, Jia Zheng, Jia Jing, Shan Ziye dare not speak.

Jia Cong himself thought it would be impossible, but he turned around and comforted his father Jia She: "My son, let's go to school for three more years."

Then, Jia Cong went back to sleep and didn't look at the list.

It was Jia Zhang, Jia Rong, and Ye Zhengxing who ran to watch the list.

Jia Cong got lucky and got hit.

Although Sun Shan is famous, he is the last one.

In the end it was hit.

Firecrackers sounded on Rongning Street.

Jia Cong looked at the happy news, but couldn't believe it: Master Jia Cong of Jinling Mansion won sixty tributes.
