Chapter 161: The Righteous Jiufu Jin
Jiu Fujin sighed: "For the New Year, you must at least prepare some Buddhist scriptures, because you can't guarantee when someone will propose to offer something, and everyone will follow. If you don't prepare alone, it will be too low. Ordinary
The Filial Piety Sutra, the Lotus Sutra, the Heart Sutra, etc., you can pick some and copy them slowly on a daily basis.
Secondly, you should do some good deeds during the New Year, one is to accumulate blessings, and the other is to gain some reputation. But this should be done in an inconspicuous way, otherwise you will be competing for reputation with others, which will be another mistake. This good deed must also be done
It is done quietly, firstly
Donate some rice, grain, cotton-padded clothes and the like, and secondly, offer them to the Buddha! Ever since I was accused of being married to the ninth elder brother, my family has taken some rice from my dowry village every year and gone to a nearby village to donate some porridge and rice! This
I haven’t had a break for several years.”
Yuan Wense said gratefully: "Fortunately, Sister-in-law Jiu taught me, otherwise I wouldn't know it at all?"
It turns out that as Prince Fujin, giving alms and other things is a daily routine every year! She thought she would only give out porridge in a disaster year?
"I see that there are still about twenty pieces of coarse cloth issued by the palace at home that have not been put to any use, and there are also some scraps of leather, which are not very good. I just want the ladies in the palace to make some leather jackets and distribute them to me when the time comes.
Tenant farmers on Zhuangzi, do you think this is okay?" Yuan Wense asked.
Jiufu Jin said: "This is good. It is pragmatic and low-key, and it allows people to know who has done good deeds. It is better than those of us who hide our ears and steal others."
Yuan Wense said shyly: "I just thought, I don't have the ability to do everything in the world, so let's start on a small scale, at least let the people in my village have a solid winter. Let them have enough food and clothing.
Well, it's more meaningful than giving a bowl of porridge to a stranger."
Jiu Fujin thought for a while: "This is indeed good! But you have to ask people to count how many people there are, how many men, women, old and young. Only by doing this can you count. Furthermore, you can let the women in Zhuangzi learn how to do it by touch.
Let the palace maid do these things, otherwise, people will say that you are mean to the palace maid, and you have a bad reputation!"
The maids in the Shifu Jin Mansion have always said that they have a lot of work, but they were previously making cushions, leather sets, etc. for the masters. If they have any resentment, they dare not speak out. If they are even allowed to make things for these tenant farmers, what will happen?
He might say something unpleasant.
"Just listen to Sister-in-law Jiu." Yuan Wense nodded.
There is not much age difference between the two of them, but Jiu Fujin is much calmer than Yuan Wense, at least five or six years older. The longer the two of them spend time together, the better their relationship becomes.
After all, in those days, the so-called handkerchief acquaintances, the Jin Lan sisters, could sometimes only meet once or twice a year. Jiu Fujin and Yuan Wense had too few opportunities to meet frequently, and the two were foodies and foodies.
Plus, they have similar temperaments, so every once in a while, the two of them get together to eat and drink. Even if they pass a post, they enter through the small door and leave through the small door, but they don't show it to the outside world.
But after all, the two of them hadn't known each other for too long. Jiu Fujin had some words that he couldn't say directly, so he kept them in his stomach. After thinking about it over and over again, he decided to help Yuan Wense, and talked to him about it when he went to bed at night.
Jiu said a few words: "Eighth sister-in-law was at the Prince's office that day.
The family said something was leaked, saying that she needed to get well and let the ten brothers and sisters help her take a look again. As a result, these days, there was a lot of traffic, and there was no time to calm down. I am a good person and I am almost tired and sick. Today I go to see the ten brothers and sisters.
