Chapter 5 Learning

Ning Shuo never expected that he would see the feast bell when he came out for some air.

Why is she here?

He frowned deeply, not having the slightest doubt that he had recognized the wrong person - after he was sent to Lingnan at that time, he was considered lonely and helpless, so the young disciple who had taught him for four years stayed by his side every day.

How can a busy little girl admit her mistake?

But she should be in Lingnan at this time. How could she appear in Ningguo Duke's mansion?

The old friend reunited, but he fell into the doubt of whether he was awake or dreaming at this moment.

So he lost consciousness for a moment and stared at her for a long time. It wasn't until she called her cousin softly that he came back to his senses.

Not a dream.

He remembered. Her family had arranged a marriage for her in Kyoto. When she told him at that time, she only said that the betrothal was the concubine of Yu Hanlin's family. Ning Shuo had been in Kyoto for many years and knew that Yu Hanlin's family was innocent.

, he had also met that concubine. He was very motivated, well-educated, and good-looking. He was considered a good match for her, so she was relieved.

He was extremely ill at the time, so he managed to keep up his energy to listen to her talk about the matter, and did not ask her how she got such a marriage. "Master Ning San" had no information about her in his memory, so yesterday Mr. Li said that she came to Kyoto to be married.

When he was his cousin, he didn't expect it to be her.

He smiled softly. It was actually an old friend meeting again.

But now things have changed, and the two of them cannot recognize each other after all. He looked away and apologized: "I recognized the wrong person, I only thought it was A Niang when she was young."

The fifth girl breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "My cousin looks very much like my mother-in-law!"

Feast Bell felt more and more awkward. Not only did this cousin's eyes look familiar to her, but the tone of his voice just now also seemed familiar to her. But she really didn't know him.

This awkward feeling made her want to leave here immediately. She secretly squeezed the fifth girl's hand. The fifth girl immediately understood what she meant, but she rarely lied, and she didn't know what reason to find to escape.

Ning Shuo knew this little disciple's habits, and when he saw the movements of her hands, he knew what she was going to do. So he coughed and said, "It's windy. I haven't recovered yet, so I went back."

The two little girls nodded like garlic.

He turned around with a smile, feeling that life was unpredictable. The person he thought he would never see again stood in front of him. But Feng Ling saw his cousin's walking posture... and fell into silence again.

She finally remembered why her cousin made her familiar!

This is the way he looks at her, the tone of his voice, and the way he walks!

She held the fifth girl tightly with her hand, "Does the third cousin walk like this on weekdays?"

The fifth girl shook her head, "No, I usually walk faster than now."

"But Third Brother has been ill recently, Aniang said, and even his voice has become weaker."

Feng Ling didn't like to go out and had never met many men. After being explained by the fifth girl, she accepted it, "I think he looks like my husband - probably because my husband has been sick. I think he is a sick person."

, are all general gestures.”

The fifth girl was still protecting her brother, so she immediately said: "Yes, yes, he is sick. We don't care about the sick."

Then he took her to the house to sort the books. When Feng Ling saw the box full of books, she immediately forgot about Ning Shuo. These were all Mr.'s books, and they had to be wiped one by one before being put on the bookshelf.

Mrs. Li went to see Ning Shuo again in the afternoon. Then she split her mind and asked the little girl to see what the banquet bell was doing and if she needed anything. Then she turned to Ning Shuo and asked, "I heard that you went for a walk this morning?

Have you seen your cousin?"

Ning Shuo: "Yes, she looks a lot like you."

Ms. Li was very happy, but she said: "I look like her mother, and she looks like her mother."

After a while, the little girl came back, "My cousin is packing books with the fifth girl. My cousin has several boxes of books."

Mrs. Li: "I didn't expect this! These two girls are book lovers."

Ningguo Gong's family has young children. Although the fourth and fifth children are concubines, she has never treated them badly, so they are very close. She is also happy to see the two girls playing well.

She said: "I also have a few miscellaneous books in my house. Let's give them to them."

Ning Shuo knew what the scene was like just by hearing the little girl say that Feng Ling was packing up the books. When she was in Lingnan before, she liked to take out the books to dry in the sun when the sun came out, and then put the books back in the dusk light.

.

I took them off the bookshelf one by one and put them back one by one, enjoying themselves endlessly.

He was in a trance for a while, and then said to Mrs. Li: "Auntie, I also have a few books. Let's give them to my cousin and my fifth sister."

That's okay! She also hopes that her sons and daughters will treat the feast bell better.

She said: "Your cousin is alone in Kyoto. I can still take care of her at home, but I need your help outside. I can't let her be bullied."

Now that I see that they get along well, I am very happy.

The little girl sent the book and came back happily: "Madam, Master, the two girls have returned the gift."

She opened the small box in her hand and said: "The fifth girl gave me a copy of Chunting Court Training, and the cousin gave me a book of travels in Lingnan."

As soon as Ning Shuo heard the title of the book, he realized: It seems that she doesn't like him very much now.

Travel Notes on Lingnan was given to her as a gift when she went to the bookstore to buy books. This book was very common in Lingnan, and she did not attach much importance to it among the many books. However, it was also appropriate to give to her cousin in Kyoto.

So it was sent back and forth like this, and it was time for dinner.

Mrs. Li said: "You are still sick, so you won't have dinner with us. I asked the small kitchen to prepare Lingnan dishes for Yanling tonight, and asked your second sister-in-law and Xiaowu to eat with her. I'll wait for you.

Now that you are well, if you like to eat, I will ask someone to cook it for you. Lingnan cuisine is very good."

She left happily. But before she left for long, she saw the second young lady walking towards her in a hurry, "Mom, grandma has called us."

Mrs. Li's face fell as soon as she saw it. This old woman! I don't know what she is doing!

She patted her daughter-in-law's hand and said, "Don't worry about it, I'll deal with her."

The second young lady sighed. She originally thought that she married well - her mother-in-law was good, her husband was good, her sister-in-law and uncles were all good. Who knew that the old lady was a noisy one. Fortunately, her mother-in-law loved her and took care of everything.

She, this prevented her from being wronged.

But the human heart is made of flesh, and her mother-in-law cherishes her, and she also loves her mother-in-law. However, she cannot defeat the madam, so she can only help her mother-in-law share the burden.

She has always been gentle, but she couldn't help but say at this time: "Why do you always act like a monster!"

Ms. Li felt comfortable listening to her, but she also advised her, "Don't talk nonsense, otherwise others will listen to you."

Your Majesty rules the world with filial piety, and the old lady is very clever, so they usually have to accept it. Sure enough, when they entered the Shoukang Hall, the old lady said with a smile: "That's a good thing! Isn't Shuo'er always sick recently? I burn incense and pray every day.

, pray to Bodhisattva to keep him in good health.”

"The Bodhisattva heard my prayer and gave me a dream at noon today. He asked us to go to the temple to offer incense and to offer 500 Amitabha Sutras and 500 Ksitigarbha Sutras to the Bodhisattva. It is best to copy them and offer them within a month.

.”

She looked at Mr. Li and said, "The Bodhisattva said that the one who gave birth to him should copy it himself. Only in this way can Shuoer be kept in good health. Otherwise, he will be sick and he will get seriously ill again one day."

Mrs. Li was so angry that she was trembling all over.

This is really cruel, knowing how to exploit her weak points.

Mrs. Li is a Buddhist. When Ning Shuo fell ill three months ago, there was no cure. She had to kneel in front of the Buddhist hall for three days and nights, praying to the Bodhisattva to return her son to her. Later, when Ning Shuo woke up, Mrs. Li

She thought it was the Bodhisattva who heard her prayers and appeared, so she followed a vegetarian diet for three months and only started to eat meat a few days ago.

So the old lady used the Bodhisattva's dream to persuade her to copy the scriptures, but she had to go. She had to copy sincerely, for fear that the Bodhisattva would blame her and make Ning Shuo fall ill again.

The second young lady felt very sorry for her mother-in-law, but she had no choice but to say: "I will help my mother-in-law grind ink."

The banquet bell was supposed to wait for my aunt to eat, but the little maid asked her to eat first: "Madam and the Second Young Madam have both gone to Shoukang Hall."

She had no choice but to eat first with the fifth girl. Before they finished, she heard that her aunt wanted to copy the Amitabha Sutra and the Ksitigarbha Sutra.

The fifth girl's face turned red with anger, and she told Feast Bell what was going on here, and she was dumbfounded.

This is really... so cruel. I'm going to break my hand from this!

She shuddered. My mother-in-law always said that her aunt was pitiful and had been tortured. The old lady was vicious and cruel. She didn't really feel it before, so she always listened to it as a story. Now that she really felt it, she felt aggrieved and depressed.

.

It turns out that Kyoto still has this method of teasing people!

She felt sorry for her aunt.

"Is there no way not to copy scriptures?"

The fifth girl sighed, "My mother knows how to copy it. When the third brother fell ill, my mother made a vow in front of the Bodhisattva. She is willing to do whatever the Bodhisattva asks her to do. She believes in this."

This is difficult to handle. Feast Bell frowned, "But we can't really copy it."

I have to think of a way for my aunt to avoid this, otherwise my hand will really become useless.
