Chapter 410: The wedding date is approaching, the old monk enters the city
The young master was about to get married in Laoshan Mansion, and people were happy and happy. On the one hand, it was because Chen Sanlang was deeply admired; on the other hand, at Chen Sanlang's age, he would be uneasy to get married again.
This is by no means an exaggeration.
Marriage and marriage between men and women is a matter of the man and woman involved, but the word "marriage" always involves countless things, and sometimes it is very complicated, and in the end, even the married person cannot figure it out.
As the lord of Laoshan, Chen Sanlang's marriage involved many people's hearts. If he didn't get married, people would feel uneasy.
Under the dynasty system, no matter men or women, the age of getting married will not be too old unless there are some exceptions. There are many people who marry at the age of fifteen or sixteen, which belongs to the mainstream.
Now, Chen Sanlang is over twenty years old. As for Xu Jun's age, he is simply an "old girl".
This is the concept and it is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Apart from age reasons, not getting married means there is no descendants, which is a very serious matter. If you can be exaggerated, in a nutshell: there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and no descendants are the greatest.
If you have no descendants, you can be convicted!
With Chen Sanlang's current identity, his major marriage will also affect the stability of the city. Because in the minds of many people, if they do not get married, they will be unstable.
Doesn’t Chen Sanlang’s unstable mean that Laoshan Mansion is unstable?
Therefore, no matter from which perspective, Chen Sanlang has reached the point where he must get married.
It’s not “want”, it’s not “should”, but “must”.
The so-called lifelong major event, no matter the powerful or the civilians, how many people are "involved"? In this world, people cannot avoid the common people and go through this experience.
But it goes without saying that Chen Sanlang and Xu Jun are in love, and they have long been at the point of discussing marriage. If they hadn't encountered any ups and downs, they would have been afraid that the children would have been born.
Then get married.
I knew that Chen Sanlang was busy and many of the trivial matters of etiquette were handled by Chen Wangshi and Chen Ermei. Chen Sanlang didn’t have much help, just need to be a groom when he was about to go, dress neatly, and be a groom.
In order to get married, Xu Nianniang and his daughter moved out of the government office and went to another residence. They had lived in the back house of the government office, mainly for convenience, and Xu Nianniang was in charge, so that the government office could be ensured that there was nothing wrong. But now we are getting married, how can we meet the bride so close? It is not in accordance with the rules. Could it be that Chen Sanlang walked over, visited the door, and hugged the bride and went back to the room...
It's really absurd.
The mansion was chosen by Xu Nianniang himself, and it was not very big. It was better than Qingyou. He did not have the name of the mansion and wrote two words casually: Martial Arts Hall!
Then he hung up.
Lord Taishan returned to his old career and opened a martial arts school in the city, leaving Chen Sanlang speechless. It could only be understood as "the master acts and is unfathomable." Or maybe he was going to cheat people on tuition fees and buy wine to drink again.
Yes, this is not called cheating, it is called playing in the world.
Thinking back then, Laoshan Fudao was not like this, although he was not a real expert.
No one can control Xu Nianniang's work, she does what she wants.
Because the marriage is approaching, Xu Jun rarely comes to the government office, and no longer does the matter of being in charge. He stays at home obediently, learns poetry and writes, and draws.
This made it difficult for Chen Sanlang to see her, so he went to the door. Xu Nianniang said directly: "Sanlang, I'm anxious and can't eat hot tofu, so I respect myself!"
Chen Sanlang had no choice but to go back in shame.
Xu Jun didn't come, and Song Kechan came diligently during this period. She also helped with various matters, which made Chen Wang happy.
After hearing what my mother said that day, Chen Sanlang felt a little uncomfortable when facing Song Kechan: It was a blessing for the people of Qi, and thinking about it, it was inevitable that he was beautiful.
...
The autumn rain finally stopped, but the sky was still gray and gloomy.
After the rain stopped, people took to the streets, bustling and bustling.
It was dusk, and the sun sets westward. After another half an hour, it was the time when the city gates were closed.
At this moment, someone walked in through the south gate.
Since Chen Sanlang entered Laoshan Prefecture, the city has regained its vitality. All day long, countless people entering and leaving are like crucian carp cars crossing the river. But now people entering the city have attracted a lot of attention.
This is a monk, an old monk, wearing a gray monk's robe, sporting slim shoes, his face full of sorrow, his cheeks were thin, and he could not see half a tael of flesh.
He didn't have any copper bowl and Zen stick in his hand, but he was holding a cat.
The cat was very docilely lying in his hands, looking at it with big eyes open, as if curious about this new place to arrive.
Seeing the old monk's appearance clearly, the attention he had attracted began to dissipate, and the guards did not stop him from interrogating him. An old monk might be the dilapidated temple, so he came to the palace to beg for alms.
Whether a Taoist priest or a monk, they are all monks. And monks can always make people feel respected.
However, everyone did not notice that the old monk came from afar, storm all the way, but his whole body was clean from head to toe, without any dirt or stains.
Such performance is already a magical power.
The old monk came into the city, looked up and sighed, "The clouds rolled and unfolded, the rain fell and the rain stopped, let it change thousands of times, it will be a waste in the end, why bother?"
As he said that, he walked towards a street.
At dusk, many stalls were already set up on both sides of the street, selling all kinds of food, and the slightest fragrance was emitted.
The old monk passed by without looking sideways, his expression was calm, as if everything around him was illusion and he did not touch his body at all.
But the cat in his arms seemed to be hungry and could not hold back. The cat's head turned around and his eyes were circling, and he seemed to be jumping out.
The old monk stretched out his hand and pressed it on the cat's head.
The hand was thin and slender, dry, like a dead leaf in the wind. But after pressing it, the cat immediately stabilized and called softly.
The old monk's indifferent voice came: "Although he has wisdom, he lacks wisdom."
He gently tapped his fingers on the cat's head, then tapped again, and knocked three times in total.
The cat's whole body was shocked, and its whole body exploded, then slowly converged back and recovered as before, as if nothing had changed, but the change had already happened.
"Learn your mind and see your nature, how good it is!"
The old monk smiled.
About a quarter of an hour later, he finally stood in front of a building gate. He raised his head to look and saw a hanging plaque with three words: Laoshan Temple!
During the observation, Xiaoyao Fudao was meditating and meditating.
During these days, he often went out of the city to run around, going to various mass graves and burying corpses. Anyway, he went to any place with strong evil spirits. When he arrived, he set up cases and practiced rituals. It was not a fool to fool people, but to actually sacrifice magic weapons and talismans, use what he learned throughout his life, and constantly disperse and refine those evil spirits. However, he also benefited a lot, and through rituals, he could also attract a lot of incense and revitalize the reputation of Taoist Dharma in Laoshan.
Yesterday, he had just returned to the observation and digested the gains.
