I was Idle and Cool Chapter 61: Meet the Sanxian Temple again
Lu Jinxi's fingers were pinching the letter, and some of the knuckles had turned white.
I don't know if this letter is from General Xue's handwriting. It's not particularly good, but it already reveals a sense of peace that is different from generals, as if people have seen everything in their old age.
The tone of the letter is also very peaceful.
The content of the letter is also simple, and there is no redundant words——
"If you live in a farm, you will be content with yourself, and don't look at your family."
"To hear that there is a great Confucianism in the 23rd Xian Temple on the second month of the second lunar month, and it is a rare opportunity to hear about those who have reached the world. Sun-in-law is busy with everything, but the great-grandson Xue Chi is naturally intelligent and full of spirituality. Give it a try."
"If you can worship a famous teacher, you will be blessed by God, even lucky."
Hehe.
What else can Lu Jinxi say?
She has never shown emotions easily, except for things that touch the bottom line of principles and may endanger herself.
Everyone says that the old man has always had the temperament that he won't take a second glance outside when it's windy, rainy, thunderstorms, and lightning, and he has learned it a long time ago.
Now you are writing a special letter for the trial of the Three Great Temples of the Lao Shizi?
Isn't someone "pushing" behind your back, how is that possible?
It's so ugly, you can guess who's behind the scenes with your toes!
Look at the old man's sentence "Sun-in-law is busy with everything", it's like exhorting himself that he must not use his busyness as an excuse to not take Xue Chi to the Sanxian Temple!
Too big.
Gu Juefei is too daring and too thick-skinned!
The old lady of the Xue family gave her eye drops!
She is now Grandma Lu Er, the wife of the head of the Xue family, and the great-granddaughter-in-law of Grandpa Xue.
Gu Juefei told her that there was no name on the blind date book, so she didn't need to look at her again. She seemed to want to marry her, so she dared to direct her strategy to the old man of the Xue family. This is the parent above her head.
Lu Jinxi really suddenly wanted to know: Does the old lady of the Xue family know what he is thinking?
"Mom, I'm not going, I'm not going! Didn't you say that the gentleman in the school is enough? This is going to kill me..."
Xue Chi was still screaming, with a look of impending disaster.
Actually, Lu Jinxi's mood is not much better than this cheap son.
She pinched the page of letterhead, her eyes flashed, and she felt her temples throbbing suddenly, with a faint feeling of pain.
"This is the old lady..."
Not to mention that he has a high status in the manor, the matter mentioned in the letter is also for the sake of the younger generation, so it can be said that there is no single mistake.
Lu Jinxi can go without brother Chi, no one will say anything.
But if the elders above have already spoken, and Xue Chi is asked to try it, it is not something that can be shied away.
Black and white, every sentence is on the top.
Xue Chi was crying and begging, screaming and begging, complaining about how busy he was with his studies and how strict his current husband was.
Lu Jinxi didn't seem to hear it, she just frowned, read the letter several times, and paced around the room.
Since Qing Que called in to deliver the letter, she knew that something was going to happen, and after hearing Xue Chi's wailing, she could guess what the letter said.
Rethinking this morning's carriage, the rumors in Beijing recently made me jump with fear.
She has always been prudent and cautious, but now that Lu Jinxi is pacing the house, she doesn't dare to speak.
On the chess table in the house, there is also a Moyu chessboard.
Lu Jinxi's footsteps were slow, and when his eyes were wrong, he landed on the chessboard. The tragic remnants of the chess game above were still unresolved, and there was no clear winner.
Giving a chessboard is a very provocative move.
She walked to the edge of the chess table and picked up a black chess piece at random, but her eyes slowly narrowed.
I thought she didn't respond to all Gu Juefei's actions, this person should have calmed down a bit.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be actively attacking that type.
Judging from the situation now that he dares to come to the door to disturb Mrs. Xue, even if she hides at home and does not go out, he has enough means to force her to come out.
And...
This is just the beginning.
Who knows what's next?
A "click" sound.
Lu Jinxi threw the chess piece in her hand back into the broken chess game with no expression on her face. The room was suddenly quiet, but she only smiled, with a bit of interest: "Since it is the old man who spoke, we must have brother Chi. Go to the Sanxian Temple. It's not a big deal, Qingque, you will prepare it tomorrow, and we will leave early the next day."
"Huh?"
As soon as these words came out, Qing Que was surprised, and Xue Chi was also stunned.
He was anxious and called out pitifully: "Mother, you clearly said before that I don't have to join in the fun, we are just going to watch the fun. The boy already has so many gentlemen..."
"My mother can't help it."
Lu Jinxi turned around, walked back to Xue Chi, put his hands on his shoulders and sighed, staring at him with a bit of sincerity and sigh.
"Great-grandfather is not an ordinary person. He is an elder and also cares about you. We must be going, but you don't have to worry too much. There are so many people in the capital who have to be apprentices, and Jinke's Juzi, you How can a five-year-old child be picked so easily? Just take it for a trip, okay?"
“…”
Not good.
Not good at all.
Xue Chi only looked at her with resentful eyes, and looked like she was about to cry, but when she met Lu Jinxi's eyes, she nodded involuntarily and whispered, "Okay, okay... "
The big deal, it's time to hand in a blank.
Without effort, the great-grandfather couldn't blame his mother.
So, the matter of February 23 Xian Temple was settled like this.
Xue Chi is extremely reluctant, but because of the excitement and not feeling that he has the ability to be selected, he is not very worried;
The green sparrow and egret were astonished.
After all, Lu Jinxi refused Wei Xian's invitation to travel with him not long ago, and he regretted it as soon as he turned his face. He had to take Brother Chi to the Weiwei library for the exam, which always gave people a feeling of hiding a mystery. .
But they couldn't figure it out either.
After all, after Lu Jinxi fell ill, although he was still the gentle-looking person, the way he handled things was turned upside down, and it was not something they could guess.
Lu Jinxi ordered them to go to the day when Zhang Luo was traveling, and then asked someone to inform Wei Xian and invite her to go with him.
Weixian was happy to know she had changed her mind at first.
But the general's mansion is so big, and it didn't take long for her to realize that it was the "credit" of the old man's letter, so she locked herself in her room and scolded Lu Jinxi, feeling that she was being despised.
But two days later, she still showed up at the side door with a maid.
The carriages leaving the house are ready, three in front and in front. Two are for people, and the back one is used to store all kinds of utensils that I don't know if I will use them - most of them are Wei Xian's.
"Who doesn't know that second sister-in-law, you are taking brother Chi to take the exam? I am going on a trip. What if these things are needed?"
Weixian held a Xiangfei fan in her hand, and Nana walked down the road.
Lu Jinxi was surprised that she brought a lot of things, so she asked the maid, but she didn't expect her to come.
Hearing her voice, she just smiled and turned around and laughed: "It's a good thing that my younger brother and sister are well thought out and have all the things they bring. Brother Chi is going to take an exam to see if he can have the honor to worship Mr. But I won't go. At that time, I will have to travel the mountains and waters with my younger siblings, and I hope my younger siblings will not dislike my improper preparation."
Weixian is the daughter of the Grand Fu's mansion.
There is nothing, just a wealthy family and a lot of dowry. It is said that he holds several shops on Sitong Street in the capital, not to mention the fields in the suburbs of Beijing.
The things she uses are naturally extremely delicate and delicate, far exceeding the general level of the general's mansion.
Lu Jinxi is a joke.
Weixian also knows that although Lu's wealth is not as rich as her own, she is not someone who covets it, and she doesn't bother to talk to her at the moment, so she just snorts: "It's better to stop talking nonsense, while it's early in the morning. Hurry out of the city. Today's Sanxian Temple, I don't know how lively it is!"
That's true.
In February 2nd, there were many people who went to Xiaozhongshan for outing and burning incense at the Sanxian Temple, not to mention that there is still a Gu Juefei who wants to join in the fun.
The popularity of the whole capital is about to gather, and I still don't know what the gate of the city will be like.
As soon as Lu Jinxi thought about it, she felt a bit of a headache, so she turned her head and asked, "Why haven't you met the eldest son and brother Chi?"
"Mother, I'm here!"
As soon as the voice fell, a shout came from the passage.
When everyone looked back, they saw Xue Chi running in front of him with short legs, looking in a hurry, waving to Lu Jinxi as he ran.
The lame Xue Tingzhi followed behind.
Others are tall, and although their legs and feet are inconvenient, they can take a few steps ahead of Xue Chi, and only follow behind, which is a bit unhurried.
The maids and wives followed, all of them looking terrified.
Not long ago, Lu Jinxi arranged for Xue Tingzhi's maid Xiangzhi, who was wearing a sky blue jacket and followed closely behind Xue Tingzhi.
As soon as Wei Xian saw it, she glanced at him, but she covered her lips with Concubine Xiang: "Hey, why did the second sister-in-law bring him?"
This "he", of course, refers to Xue Tingzhi.
Lu Jinxi also looked away, the corners of her lips were still hooked, but she was a little lukewarm: "They are all children of the generals, what can't you bring?"
Though she said that, she remembered what happened yesterday.
The letter from Mrs. Xue was sent back the day before yesterday. Yesterday, Time School was closed. The gentlemen said that the students should go back and prepare for tomorrow.
At that time, Lu Jinxi was being twisted by Xue Chi to tell a story.
As soon as he finished speaking, "General Xue paid three visits to the cottage to invite Mr. Cai", it was widely circulated outside that Xue Tingzhi had come to greet him. Lu Jinxi asked someone to invite him in, but he was outspoken and told Lu Jinxi directly that he also wanted to go to the shrine on February 23.
Xue Tingzhi is the son of a concubine, and was born of an orchid.
In the mansion, he has always kept a low profile when he can, and he has no sense of existence for more than ten years, let alone something like being strong.
Lu Jinxi was surprised.
When it was time to go out today, she actually didn't quite understand what Xue Tingzhi was thinking: Born of Orchid, her blood was impure; she had leg disease and her appearance was poor. This has almost eliminated his "official career". Even if he is fortunate enough to be a teacher, what's the use?
"Meet Mother."
Arriving in front of Lu Jinxi, Xue Tingzhi stopped and bowed.
He is wearing a dark blue robe today.
A silver-embroidered leather belt was tied around his waist, which only made him look tall and tall. In addition, he had a handsome face, deep outline and deep pupils, but revealed a kind of morbid pallor. sense.
Lu Jinxi stared at him, nodded lightly, and glanced at Xue Chi, who was out of breath: "I guess I know that you waited for brother Chi to come so late, and it's hard work for you. It's not early, you and brother Chi sat together in the back."
"Yes."
Xue Tingzhi bowed in response.
Xue Chi was taken aback and opened his mouth to say something, but he finally looked at the people around him, but still didn't say a word. He bowed and saluted, and then walked towards the second car glumly.
Lu Jinxi was standing next to the first car, watching the maids help Xue Chi up, and watching Xiangzhi help Xue Ting on the car.
At this time, Wei Xian sneered: "Hypocritical!"
Normal people think this way.
After all, I ignored Xue Tingzhi many years ago, and now I have to take a lame man to the Sanxian Temple. Who knows if I can use this scumbag to set off my own son's thoughts?
Where can Lu Jinxi not see Wei Xian's thoughts?
But she doesn't care.
Xue Tingzhi is a man with a sharp blade in his heart. Although he is not old enough, his thoughtfulness is not comparable to ordinary people. Today's Xue Chi is just a little brat, how could he outshine him?
So, she just smiled and didn't return to Wei Xian, so she boarded the carriage with the hand of the blue bird and egret.
Weixian stood there, stunned for a moment, then reacted and shouted angrily: "Lu Jinxi, are you so shabby? You even let me have a car with you?!!"
That voice can be heard by anyone walking outside the mansion.
But what can be done?
That's how Lu Jinxi arranged it.
Even though Wei Xian had all kinds of dissatisfaction, after shouting, she could only hold her nose and admit her fate, and in the end she got into the car.
On the way out of the city to Xiaozhongshan, she just murmured and satirized Lu Jinxi all the way.
The green bird and egret are numb.
Only Lu Jinxi was very interested. He lifted the curtain of the car and watched the busy traffic outside. He listened to Wei Xian's words, and occasionally said a few words in agreement. But whether it is mood or expression, it is still motionless.
Weixian almost died of anger.
Who would have thought that Lu Jinxi was such a tolerant person? After several trials and sarcasm, they all poured water on the stone, but nothing happened.
So, after leaving the city, Wei Xian didn't ask for trouble, and simply went to see the scenery outside, too lazy to talk.
At this time, the car was quiet.
On the way, there are BMW cars all around.
The three cars in the General's Mansion were all submerged in the surrounding traffic. After queuing out of the city for a long time, I didn’t talk about it, and even after leaving the city, it was blocked all the way.
From the inner city to Xiaozhong Mountain, it would have taken an hour and a half if it was fast, but they walked for nearly two hours.
Xiaozhong Mountain is outside the southern city, and in front of the mountain is Baiyue Lake.
Sanxian Temple is built at the foot of the mountain.
The Yuewei Pavilion is built on the mountain and near the water. It is more than ten feet higher than the flat ground.
It's a great place to go out and play.
But now looking around, it's not cars or people, as well as those peddlers who smell copper, all gathered here, the voices of talking, laughter, and hawking are intertwined.
The carriage of the General's Mansion had just reached the foot of the mountain, but it stopped moving.
The driver outside wiped his cold sweat and told the inside: "Ma'am, the front is blocked. I'm afraid we won't be able to get in until the cars that sent people leave."
As soon as Lu Jinxi heard this, she immediately raised her forehead.
Weixian's face is also not good-looking. She expected it to be crowded, but she didn't expect it to be so crowded. Although it is easier to create opportunities for Lu Jinxi to "get out of the wall", it really makes her not interested in playing what.
For a while, the whole road was full of complaints.
"It looks like it won't be over for a while."
Lu Jinxi leaned against the window and sighed, feeling why she had to suffer this, so she only opened the curtain.
A warm wind blowing on my face, with a little peach fragrance, floated from a distance.
Accompanying, of course, are the loud voices of people and the sound of horses and horses.
There are only a few restaurants and tea shops along the road. There are almost no vacancies, not to mention the luxurious carriages along the road, blocking the surrounding roads.
The Sanxian Temple, which is full of incense in normal days, is just ahead.
The location of the door was actually crowded with people. Looking around, they were all scholars and scholars dressed as literati, old and young, whispering to each other, but they didn't dare to make a loud voice.
The well-dressed servants of each family stood in the corner as if they dared not intervene among these people.
"Oh my God, isn't this all this year's Juren masters?"
"Why are you all here!"
"Why are they all outside the Sanxian Temple and don't go in to offer incense?"
"Tube, I don't know this. There are so many great Confucians here, even a scholar will not miss it. Now standing outside and not getting incense, it is bound to be the great Confucians inside."
Several drivers who drove the car couldn't help arguing about it.
Lu Jinxi heard this, but frowned slightly, her eyes fell on the door of the Sanxian Temple, and she did not take it back.
In the Sanxian Temple, the light is a little dim.
Several little Daoists rubbed the incense and handed them respectfully to the seven people standing in the hall. Most of them were old men with white beards or elderly people with gray hair. Only one, Gu Juefei, was young and handsome.
The boy handed him the incense, and he thanked him in a low voice.
When he turned his head, he saw that the children around him had already changed faces. It was not the same as when he came to worship when he participated in the examination six years ago.
Only the statues of the three sages, "Mingdao", "Yichuan" and "Nanjia", remain solemn.
The burning incense is in hand.
Gu Juefei looked at it like this, but in fact he didn't mean much respect in his heart. The sages have passed away, and there are only clay puppets in front of them. What is there to be respected?
He was just solemn on the face and contemptible in his heart.
Looking back on the hard times of the past six years, he finally just smiled, stepped forward and carefully inserted this stick of incense into the incense burner under the statue of the Three Sages.
At this moment, an old sigh sounded in the hall: "The last time I saw you want to come here to offer incense, it was six years ago, not long after the crown, and he was still a bit young and frivolous, but now he is gone. It can be seen. The six years at the Jokhang Temple have really worn away a lot of your sharpness."
Gu Juefei turned around and saw the six great Confucians who had already finished their incense.
The one who just spoke was an old man with white hair and beard. He was very old, but his white hair was **** with a green jade hairpin carved in the shape of a bamboo pen, and his eyes were round and transparent, as clean as child.
At this moment, there is a bit of pity on the face, but there is a lot of admiration.
Gu Juefei smiled and cupped his hands: "It's all young and frivolous. Please save some face for Juefei, don't dare to mention it again."
"Hahaha, you ah you! It's still the same!" The old man couldn't help laughing when he heard it, "But that's right, grind it well. The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. It's easy to break through the past, and the wise are jealous of the sky. You have been jealous of the heavens for the past six years, and you can be regarded as the favor of the heavens."
Several old men around were slightly sighed when they saw Gu Juefei like this.
They and Gu Juefei are both teachers and friends. They have always been friends with them because of their great talents, not to mention that they are going to start the fasting together today and accept students.
Seeing that Gu Juefei wasted these six years, how could he not be emotional?
However, Gu Juefei's response was mediocre, but he waved his hand and said: "You gentlemen have been talking about Juefei's ears in the past few days. Today, there are countless outstanding students, waiting for you to choose. I'll go out of this temple first. , we will continue to reminisce when we are at the Yuewei Museum."
"Hahaha..."
Several people heard the slight helplessness in his words, so they laughed together, but they didn't say more, just two or three walked casually together, heading out of the Sanxian Temple.
There are already countless people waiting outside.
The group of scholars next to the door, seeing the figure from a distance, became even more excited, and at the same time immediately became quiet.
After a few gentlemen came out and stood on the steps, all of them bowed down and said, "Waiting to meet you gentlemen!"
Seven people with different temperaments.
But no matter what he looks like or what age he is, he has a kind of unremarkable taste. Only his demeanor and demeanor reveals that poetic charm, which makes people feel extraordinary.
Even with gray hair, it is still a "Confucianism" character, which means "beautiful poetry and calligraphy."
Lu Jinxi heard the movement and saw it from a distance.
Of course, I also saw Gu Juefei standing in the middle. A green robe, which seems to reflect the mountains and waters, is tall and straight like green pines and green cypresses, even if standing shoulder to shoulder with several great scholars of the world, it has not lost half of its charm.
A huge bronze incense tripod is placed at the entrance of the Sanxian Temple.
At this moment, a curl of blue smoke is rising, swaying and swaying, dissipating under the blue sky, as if it wants to be entangled with white clouds. Among the green mountains and clear waters, these scenes make people feel peaceful and peaceful.
But her eyes only fell on Gu Juefei's face.
The edge of the lips is elegant and handsome, the eyes seem to be flowing with the mountain stream, and the gestures are full of handsome and handsome postures.
What a painting.
Who in the world doesn't admire them when they see it?
But she only remembered the letter that was sent to her from Mrs. Xue Zhuangzi...
She had already planned to quit and let Gu Juefei, an old grass, go all the way. Who would have thought that he would be so **** him that he even used his strategy on Mrs. Xue.
It's really "Heaven has a way, you don't go, **** has no door, you just go"!
Lu Jinxi looked at the figure, only when the other's eyes swept in this direction, she slowly loosened her fingers and let the car curtain fall, blocking all sight outside.
There was a smile on the lips, but there was a bit of coldness in the softness.
Since opening that letter, her original plan to hide has changed.
Now it's Gu Juefei who brought it to the door by herself. She really feels sorry for herself if she doesn't eat it!
As for after eating...
Responsibility is certainly not borne.
At most, it's a little more troublesome to deal with, but it won't kill people.
Most of the people who have no experience in love think that love is a beautiful thing.
But really, it's just that.
Lu Jinxi feels that it is very necessary for him to let Gu Juefei and other older men appreciate the beauty and cruelty of the various emotions and desires in the world...
Hmm.
Mainly cruel.
