The 24th chapter of Renzi Scroll: The Tranquility and Comfort Before the Storm (6)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
To be honest, although Feng Ziying has been to Daiyu's Xiaoxiang Pavilion several times, Daiyu always greeted her and talked to her, but she has never really looked at the layout of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion seriously.

This main hall is also a three-piece suite, with the study on the east, the bedroom on the west, and the main hall for guests in the middle.

Naturally, ordinary men cannot come in, except for myself. Well, if it were "A Dream of Red Mansions", there might be only Jia Baoyu in the book.

The study room was too cold. Maybe Daiyu liked this style, but Feng Ziying didn't like it. He wanted more warm colors in Daiyu's study.

There is a bookcase under the moon cave window, with pens, ink, paper, inkstones, brush washers, and water seals, and not much else. The bamboo carvings of the water storehouse made by a small Arhat are very elegant, and they look like jade.

After using it frequently, the Arhat's belly is already a little oily.

On the north side of the study room is a bookshelf, which is full of books. Feng Ziying gets a headache just looking at it. He naturally knows that Dai Yu likes to read, but if she likes it too much, she will inevitably neglect physical exercise. This is what Feng Ziying is most worried about.

Visiting a piano on the south side, the piano bench was old and new, but Feng Ziying knew that Daiyu didn't like playing the piano very much. It was probably just a decoration and not very practical. There was actually a colorful butterfly kite hanging on the wall above, which was quite surprising.

Feng Ziying was very happy. At least this girl knew how to relax and have some fun instead of staying at home all day long.

Xue Yan brought the tea in, Feng Ziying took it and put it down, and then asked casually: "Has your girl ever kicked a shuttlecock or thrown a kettle in the past few days?"

Xue Yan also knew the whole story here, and said with a smile: "The uncle has given instructions, so the girl must obey. She has to play shuttlecock every morning and afternoon, and throw pot in the morning. Sister Zijuan is supervising her, so if she doesn't want to, she will

There is only promise.”

"I'm doing this for your lady's benefit. If you develop a habit, you will gradually get used to it in the future."

Feng Ziying also knew that Daiyu would complain about his request, but he insisted on his own opinion.

With Daiyu's body and bones, if she doesn't keep exercising, let alone giving birth to a child for herself in the future, there is a high possibility that even a headache, brain heat, cold, etc. will turn into pneumonia.

These days, the medical conditions are not that good. If you really get a disease like pneumonia, even he is helpless. He doesn't want to see this happen.

"The girl also knows that, so even though she sometimes complains, she still perseveres. Moreover, in this winter and spring season, the girl rarely gets sick, even her hands and feet are not that cold." Xueyan also knows what Feng Ziying likes to hear,

Everything he said made Feng Ziying happy.

"Well, that's good." Feng

Ziying was in a good mood and glanced at Xueyan. The girl seemed to be well-behaved. She just stood aside in a polite manner. She turned her head and glanced to the west, which was Daiyu's bedroom. She stood up and walked to the door, but

He didn't go in. He would definitely not go in the girl's dormitory when Daiyu was not around, but it was still a little dark, which made him think that he had to change it to avoid making it so cold.

There is a warm pavilion separated to the south, with a kang mattress inside, and a fan with vertical pendants on both sides. A picture of Guanyin is next to the wall outside the fan. Feng Ziying saw at a glance that there were table lamps and tea sets on the kang table in the warm pavilion.

The most conspicuous thing is the one I painted for Daiyu, "Unintentionally struggling for spring, once everyone is jealous", which is placed alone in the middle.

Feng Ziying felt hot about this girl and couldn't help but take a step forward.

Xue Yan was startled. Although Uncle Feng and the girl had already made an engagement, they hadn't gotten married yet, and the girl wasn't here. If the uncle wanted to go in, should he stop him or not?

Fortunately, Feng Ziying did not walk in, but her eyes wandered around the boudoir and then returned.

The canopy bed with low hanging curtains is not big. The bed is covered with felt blankets and brocade mattresses. The plain quilt is made of dark red Hangzhou silk. If the color was brighter, Feng Ziying would be more satisfied.

This girl always likes this kind of solitary style. No wonder she is so depressed in "Dream of Red Mansions". It seems that although she has changed a lot in this life, some things in her bones still remain.

While I was thinking about it, I heard a meow of "meow", and a cat jumped out of the warm pavilion. It looked at Feng Ziying with eager eyes, and then saw the snow goose, and then left in anger. It wasn't the Linqing lion cat, but who was it?

?

During several visits to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Feng Ziying never saw the lion cat that she had bought for Daiyu in Linqing. Today, when Daiyu was not here, she saw it.

Feng Ziying subconsciously smiled and shook her head, returned to her seat, took a sip of tea, stood up and left.

Feng Ziying had no plans to go to Champs Elysees, mainly because there was no better solution if she went there by herself.

Under such circumstances, if I had said that I would wait and see, not only Shi Xiangyun, but also Daiyu and Tanchun would feel that I was a bit hypocritical.

But the situation is like this. I am not omnipotent. I can't interfere in other people's marriages. I finally saved Yingchun. At least for Shi Xiangyun, I am powerless now. I can only wait and see whether Sun Shaozu will commit suicide.

, but now it seems that he is on the road to death.

So we can only wait.

As for whether Sun Shaozu really wanted to die, and what impact the annulment of the marriage between Sun and Shi's family would have on Shi Xiangyun's future, Feng Ziying couldn't say for sure. Maybe...

Of course, you can think about it and then go to sleep.

After coming out of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Feng Ziying simply walked back along the Cuiyan Bridge. She walked quickly when she came here before, so she didn't pay much attention to it. Now she could take a leisurely stroll and appreciate the beauty of the Grand View Garden.

What a sight.

However, the sun had slowly set at this moment, and the afterglow did not cast much heat on her body. Feng Ziying was stunned when she saw a corner of the eaves of the Cuicui Temple hidden behind the rocks.

It seems that my future concubine Miaoyu still lives here. After so long, although I have met her several times, this girl still seems to maintain that lukewarm and distant attitude.

I have too many things on my hands, and now I am not as anxious as before. There are so many lovely women around me, so I am not so eager to do anything.

So I dropped this matter and let her go. However, next year, this matter should have a result. Feng Ziying didn't know what this girl was thinking.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Miaoyu, with her long hair lightly bundled and a fluttering white scarf, walking out of the stone path leading to the streamside path from the Cuicui Temple. The fly whisk she was holding in her hand was hanging diagonally on her arm, dangling.

.

"Miaoyu." This was the first time that two people met alone. In the past, there would have been other people present, at least Xing Xiuyan, but today it was Miaoyu alone. Feng Ziying was not afraid, but felt a little embarrassed.

.

It's not good not to say hello. At least she is still her future concubine in name. Well, maybe the other party didn't mean this, but at least Feng Ziying must comply with Lin Ruhai's dying instructions. As for Miaoyu's unwillingness in the end, Feng Ziying certainly won't.

Will be reluctant.

"Miaoyu has met Brother Feng." Miaoyu hesitated for a moment, but finally put her hands together and bowed.

Feng Ziying shook his head. This girl was still arguing with him about this. He said calmly: "Looking at you, are you really planning to cut off three thousand worries and become a monk?"

Miaoyu was shocked, "Why did Brother Feng say this?"

"You even have to put your hands together when you salute me. Doesn't this mean that you want to return to the Buddha's body and enter the Buddhist door? Don't the sisters in this garden also need to be isolated from the outside?"

Feng Ziying has also thrown away so many fetters. Since she really doesn't want to marry into the Feng family, why should she force herself and think twice about everything she says? It's better to just treat her with a normal heart.

Miaoyu was a little surprised and confused. In the past, when Feng Ziying met her, although she didn't say much, they both maintained courtesy and respect. Why did she seem to be a different person today, speaking so bluntly and without being polite?

"Brother Feng's words are serious. Miaoyu is just tired of the chaos of the world. She admires Buddhism and Taoism, but she insists on severing human relations..." Feng Ziying's words made Miaoyu a little flustered.

, "Other Miaoyu hasn't thought about it yet."

"Oh?" Feng Ziying nodded: "I admire the leisurely way of Buddhism? But if there is no excitement in the colorful world, how can we compare the leisurely way of Buddhism? The Buddha said that entering the world means being born into the world, and being born into the world means entering the world. Miaoyu, you are a Buddhist practitioner.

My true heart is not as pure, thorough, and free as a person like me who is wallowing in the world of mortals."

Feng Ziying's casual pretentious words made her a little confused, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

Originally, Miaoyu had been struggling with the idea of ​​living in the Cuicui Temple in Rongguo Mansion. She had no worries about food and clothing, and enjoyed leisurely travels every day. It didn't seem like a life like a true Buddhist practice.

But she is also a person who is particularly particular about her external possessions. She has also traveled for a while, but her life outside is far from what she imagined. She eats and sleeps in the open, begs for alms, and has a cold face and white eyes. It can be described as a bittersweet experience.

Spicy, but not all five flavors, but no sweetness at all, only sour, bitter and spicy. This is just a walk around Shuntian Mansion, or even the capital city.

Therefore, after returning to Caicui Temple, she never mentioned becoming a monk again, but preferred to worship Taoism and worship Buddha as a lay Buddhist.

It's just that this kind of thought can only be kept in the heart, but cannot be expressed to others. Even to her best friend Xing Xiuyan, Miaoyu has never mentioned it. However, Xing Xiuyan also feels that this sister seems to be an accomplished Buddhist practitioner and has a better temperament.

I have become more open-minded and magnanimous, and no longer as extreme and stubborn as before.

Seeing that Miaoyu remained silent, Feng Ziying didn't know what was going on in the other person's heart. She glanced sideways at the other person and said in a neutral tone: "Where are you going?"

Miaoyu was slightly startled, "I want to go to sister Xiuyan. I heard that Miss Shi Da is in a bad mood, so sister Xiuyan said we should go and have a look together."

"Since we admire the Buddha and the Tao, we should not get involved in worldly affairs." Feng Ziying stabbed casually, "I also said that I would like to see how your Cuicui Temple is..."

Miaoyu's face changed slightly, and she seemed to hesitate, "Then Miaoyu will come over later..."

Feng Ziying was also stunned. She didn't know what she meant by this. Was she inviting herself to sit in her Cuicui Temple? Did she understand it correctly?
