[69 Book Bar - www.] Because the royal family strongly promoted Buddhism, it once decreed that Lingyin Temple be named Jingde Lingyin Zen Temple. Not only did it order the local government to repair the temple, but it also gifted two volumes of the "Avalokitesvara Heart Sutra" with imperial embroidery.
The "Hui Luan Stele" and the "Lotus Sutra" and other Buddhist sutras immediately made Lingyin Temple famous. In addition, the current abbot, Zen Master Hongde, has profound Buddhist teachings and is a truly enlightened monk. Therefore, it is
From noble clan members to ordinary people, there was an endless stream of people who came to burn incense and worship Buddha.
"If the donors don't dislike it, please follow the poor monk to the dining hall to have a meal first. Afterwards, the poor monk will instruct his disciples to send the donors to the side room for shelter."
It was already dusk when Su Jinxin and his party arrived at Lingyin Temple. If they wanted to burn incense and worship the Buddha, they could only wait until tomorrow. When Su Jinyan heard that the monk in the temple was going to take her to have a vegetarian meal, Su Jinyan's face immediately changed.
Those vegetarian meals in the Yinsi Temple are so unpalatable, are they for human consumption?
This was not the first time Su Jinyan came to Lingyin Temple. When Mrs. Lin brought the female family members of the family to burn incense and worship Buddha, she also stayed at Lingyin Temple for two days. Naturally, she had eaten these vegetarian meals. Miss Su had been pampered since she was a child.
How could it be possible for her to eat such a simple meal? "Su Jinxin, you go and eat. I'm tired. Rushuang, help me go to rest."
"Who am I to make such a loud noise here? Isn't this Mr. Yun's new wife?" Suddenly, a sharp female voice sounded.
Su Jinyan's face suddenly turned ugly. The dignified eldest lady of the Su family was once a talented woman famous throughout Lin'an City. Many young men from aristocratic families came to the Su family to propose marriage, but they were all turned away by her because she said, "She
Su Jinyan will never be a concubine in this life, but people are not as good as God. The vows made that day are still in her ears, but she has become the concubine of the eldest son of the Yun Mansion. Su Jinyan's face turned red and white.
I was so ashamed and angry that I really wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
The person who came was dressed in a smart suit, with a long whip around his waist, and a dashing appearance. He was not the girl from the Qian family. The Qian family and the Su family were sworn enemies. This Qian Yue had been wielding knives and guns since she was a child, and was also reckless in her words and actions.
He said with a sneer, "You people from the Su family are so shameless that your elder sister seduces the eldest son of the Yun family, and your younger sister entangles the third young master of the Yun family. Why, are all the men in the world dead?"
You two sisters from the Su family are determined to hold on to the young master of the Yun family."
Qian Yue's words were unforgiving and harsh, which made Su Jinyan grit her teeth in anger, but Su Jinxin remained calm as if she was not involved.
These are the two ladies of the Su family.
After Qian Yue shouted so loudly, the ladies and ladies from aristocratic families who had been staying in the temple in recent days all looked over in unison.
This is the courtyard to the south of Lingyin Temple. Normally, ordinary people are never entertained. Those who stay here are either ladies and ladies from aristocratic families, or the female relatives of high-ranking officials. These families add more to Lingyin Temple every year.
The money for incense is enough for an ordinary person to live for several years.
Lin'an City is already small, and there is only one Lingyin Temple nearby. Now that the New Year is approaching, there are more and more people coming to worship Buddha. The Qian family came to Lingyin Temple early to take care of things, and they won't want to compete with the Su family again.
Is this the first incense burner in Lingyin Temple after the new year? In addition to competing for the tea business, the Su family and the Qian family have also been competing for the incense burner for decades. Sometimes, Su Jinxin laughs when he thinks about it, instead of burning the incense stick
Is it incense? Is there a difference between burning the first stick of incense and burning the last stick of incense? It doesn’t necessarily mean that the Bodhisattva will bless you if you burn the first stick of incense.
"Is that Miss Su Er? She doesn't look very good either. She's not as pretty as the maid next to me." A young lady from an aristocratic family pointed at Su Jinxin with sarcasm in her eyes.
"That's right, how can she be worthy of Mr. Yun if she is like that?" As soon as she finished speaking, a young lady from a noble family next to her said unwillingly.
"My family is not very good, but I have some tricks. In the end, I forced Mr. Yun to marry her."
…
When the ladies from the aristocratic families present heard Su Jinxin's name, they all started to point at her and talk about her. Some were disdainful, some were disgusted, and most of them were jealous. This second Miss Su was so lucky. It's not fair that you can marry Mr. Yun.
Although the marriage between the Yun and Su families has just been decided today, since the matter involves Mr. Yun, naturally if there is any disturbance, everyone in Jiangnan will soon know about it.
It is said that a young lady from an aristocratic family vomited blood on the spot as soon as she heard that Mr. Yun was engaged.
It is said that when a eunuch lady heard about it, she took three feet of white silk and clamored to hang herself.
What's more, because Mr. Yun fell into the hands of Miss Su Er, he cried with grief and anger, as if he were mourning an heir.
…
Yes, Third Young Master Yun is handsome and elegant, with the appearance of a celestial being. He is dressed in white. Even if he does not speak, he is surrounded by thousands of splendors, which is heart-wrenching. Su Jinxin smiles bitterly, but who knows, in the eyes of the world, he is a banished immortal. , despicable, cunning, and ruthless in his actions, no one can match him.
"But I heard that it was at Mrs. Yun's birthday banquet that she became the most beautiful woman, and Master Yun gave her a purple bamboo flute as a gift. Miss Qian, you were there that day, isn't that right?" That was Mrs. Yun's birthday banquet. , although all the ladies from the famous aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River have gone, the ones who went are all the ladies from the direct descendants, and the ladies from the concubines, or the ladies from the aristocratic families who were sick that day and were unable to go, felt dissatisfied. If they were here, How could it be the turn of the second young lady from the Su family?
"What makes me so talented is that it's because my sister Liang was caught in the cold wind for the past two days, so she got the upper hand by chance. Besides, speaking of both talent and beauty, she's not even worthy of carrying Zheng Xueying's shoes. You don't know this yet, right? Although the young master agreed to marry her, he took Zheng Xueying as his concubine a few days ago. Why? Isn't it just to humiliate us, the second young lady of the Su family, haha..." After Qian Yue finished speaking, the young ladies from the aristocratic family who were present They all covered their mouths and laughed. It turned out that Mr. Yun was forced to marry the second young lady of the Su family. With his character, Mr. Yun must have been forced to marry this person from the Su family because of the rumors and soft-heartedness. A shameless second lady.
Su Jinyan thought Qian Yue was here for her, but Qian Yue mocked her and pointed the finger at Su Jinxin, a little bitch. But who knew that Su Jinxin was now the future third child of the Yun family? Young Madam, it would be strange if all the ladies in the south of the Yangtze River are not jealous of her and don't target her.
"My second sister, she is just lucky." Su Jinyan seemed to be speaking for Su Jinxin, but in fact, she was getting darker and darker, describing Miss Su's full talent as a temporary fluke. She followed Qian Yue continued, "Aunt Zheng is the daughter of Mrs. Zheng. She comes from a scholarly family and is naturally well-read in poetry and books. My second sister and I have always admired her very much. You also know that my second sister was abandoned by my mother since she was a child. I didn’t ask any questions, and I didn’t ask for a teacher. This knowledge is not satisfactory, so please don’t blame my second sister, it’s not my second sister’s fault.”
