Chapter 627 The beginning of the lotus
Mr. Zhao’s yard is called Hechu Xiaozhu.
As the name suggests, there is a small lotus pond in the yard. At this time, the lotus flowers have bloomed, and a few lotus pods stretch out from the lotus leaves, tender and not yet mature.
This is not the first time Hua Jingyao has come to Youranju, but it is the first time I have seen a lotus pond in the yard. Although this lotus pond is pitifully small and cannot even be called a lotus pond. At most it is a small pool, it can be imagined that when the lotus flowers bloom, the scenery here must be very beautiful.
"How many yards are there like this with lotus ponds here?" Hua Jingyao asked.
The shopkeeper smiled: "If you go back to the princess, there are a few yards where we plant lotus flowers here, but only one of them has lotus ponds, and the others are planted in the jar."
"Is this living water? Where did the water come from?" Hua Jingyao asked again.
"If you go back to the princess, this is the water drawn from the Yudai River. Please rest assured. When the water was drawn, it was filed in the yamen. Shuntian Mansion sent someone to see it and gave the size. We dared to dig it. The ditch was digging very narrowly and deeply, and it would not overflow or flood people." The shopkeeper wiped a handful of sweat beads on his forehead. The princess came with the token of Feiyuwei, which was so scary!
"You are just digging water for this small pool?" Hua Jingyao was obviously very interested in this pool.
"If you go back to the princess, not only does this yard have a pool, but also two yards. One raises goldfish and the other makes a spring, which all attract the water from the Yudai River."
Hua Jingyao nodded, saying that she understood and she was too lazy to talk to the shopkeeper again. The shopkeeper said "returning to the princess' words" one by one, and she was almost annoyed.
There are three main rooms and two side rooms in the courtyard. Compared with the other yards with only three main rooms, it is much more spacious.
The guy opened the lock with the key and opened the door, and a smell of no one for a long time hit him.
Hua Jingyao's brows moved slightly, and Yang Qing and Yang Lan immediately stepped forward: "Princess should not go in first, let's go and have a look."
Hua Jingyao stopped, Dazhuzi sat next to Hua Jingyao's legs, watching Yang Qing and Yang Lan enter.
Hua Jingyao patted its head: "Why don't you go in?"
Dazhuzi looked at her with an expression that I was not stupid.
Yang Qing and Yang Lan opened the windows to allow the air to circulate.
Gong Liu sniffed: "That gentleman Zhao worships Buddha."
Not only Gong Liu, but Hua Jingyao also smelled a faint smell of sandalwood.
Hua Jingyao didn't say anything and walked in.
The decorations in the house are no different from those in other yards, and they are exquisite and elegant. The fine brushwork of Bai Ting on the wall looks like a genuine work.
Hua Jingyao walked around the house and did not see the Buddha's niche or the incense burner.
She looked at the shopkeeper again and asked, "Do you don't have a Buddhist niche here?"
The shopkeeper was stunned and smiled helplessly: "If you go back to the princess, there are no Buddhist niches in our place, and there are no yards in all the yards. But the little man's house offered the God of Wealth."
The princess is really interesting. Where is Youranju? For example, this place where you are looking for pleasure, I only heard that there are people who offer Guan Zhong to the Heavenly Cape Marshal, but I have never heard of people who offer Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Can Buddhas and Bodhisattvas come here?
In fact, Hua Jingyao really doesn't understand. Although she often goes to temples in her life, she is dragged by the princess. After she goes, she does whatever she wants and never gets worried.
She asked Gong Liu: "Do you have a small Buddhist temple?"
"Yes, look at what you asked, who doesn't have a small Buddhist temple?" Gong Liu disdained.
"I don't have it at home." Hua Jingyao said.
"Hey, your family doesn't have it, why don't it?" Gong Liu was puzzled.
"My family is poor." Hua Jingyao remembered that the Hua family had a small Buddhist temple in the past. Not only did Mrs. Cai worship her every day, she also asked her daughter-in-law and granddaughters to worship her, but after worshiping her, she didn't even allow herself to have a good end.
"Then do you understand very much?" Hua Jingyao asked again.
Gong Liu: "What do you understand?"
Hua Jingyao: "Worship Buddha."
Gong Liu: "It should be better than you."
"Then let me ask you, can the statues of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas be carried in your luggage and you will take them out when you want to worship?" Hua Jingyao asked.
"It should be possible." Gong Liu grabbed his head.
"No," Pei Huan, who had not spoken, said, "The Buddha statue is very particular. How can it be put together with other things casually? But..."
Pei Huan seemed to remember something, but he didn't continue to say it.
Gong Liu hurriedly asked: "But what? How can you say a word?"
Pei Huan turned a deaf ear to his words, closed his lips tightly, thinking about something.
Although Hua Jingyao is not very familiar with Pei Huan, she has worked together. She knows that although Pei Huan is young, she is mature and steadfast. Without being sure, he would not say it.
He won't say it now because he hasn't considered mature yet.
Hua Jingyao is not in a hurry, she can wait.
She patted Dazhuzi's head again and said, "Come around and see if there is anything fun."
Dazhuzi stood up, shook his hair, and walked around to patrol. He smelled it here, which was sniffing. Gong Liuzhen grinned. He suddenly asked, "Prince, which one of them is better, Duke Yong or Dazhuzi?"
Hua Jingyao glared at him, talking too much.
Hua Jingyao winked, and Yang Qing and Yang Lan began to search everywhere in the house, with cabinets, cages, and drawers all empty.
Hua Jingyao walked over and wiped it on the table with her fingers. There was dust on the table, and it was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.
She opened the cabinet and wiped it on the partition of the cabinet, which was very clean.
She walked to the bed again, which was a large shelf. There was no bedding on the bed and the bedding was placed in the cage.
Dazhuzi walked over, smelled it in the cage, then squirted and got under the bed. Gong Liu hurriedly lay on the ground and looked under the bed, but Dazhuzi came in and out quickly. Before Gong Liu could see clearly, Dazhuzi had already crawled out something.
It walked to Hua Jingyao, Hua Jingyao stretched out his hand, and Dazhuzi put the things in his mouth into Hua Jingyao's hand.
Hua Jingyao patted it, took a piece of jerky from Xiao Ai and handed it: "Eat it first, and go back and eat roast duck for you."
"What's the matter?" Gong Liu stretched his neck.
Hua Jingyao spread out that thing, it turned out to be a moon-white fan cover.
She tossed and looked at the fan cover several times, without embroidery or embroidering, and she couldn't tell anything.
"Show me." Gong Liu stretched out his hand.
Hua Jingyao handed him the fan cover: "This Mr. Zhao is a careful person, and nothing is left except this fan cover."
As she said that, she walked to the bed, looked at it, and then leaned on the bed with her legs bent and reached into the bed.
There is a gap between two fingers wide in the bed near the cover. The fan cover should have leaked from that gap to the under bed. Obviously, the owner of the fan cover did not expect it to fall from there, so he was not taken away together.
