Chapter 563 Want to be his brother-in-law, not so easy
"This outer robe looks so beautiful, and the shoes fit very well." He Zhi changed into new clothes and came out and circled excitedly, "My master wants to compare the Dharma with many people in the New Year ritual. If I wear this outfit, I will definitely not embarrass my master."
The clothes worn by monks in Dazhou are similar to those of ordinary men, and the differences are all on their heads. Monks shave their hair, choose bald heads, monk hats or five Buddha crowns according to the level or occasion; Taoists do not shave their hair, and wear five mountain crowns, five mountain crowns, lotus crowns or five elder crowns. However, many officials who like to pursue Taoism will also wear five mountain crowns and five mountain crowns, so it is difficult to identify who are Taoists based on their clothes alone.
Therefore, the robes that Jiang Liu gave to He Zhi were also popular with Kang'an teenagers this year. Seeing that he liked it so much, Jiang Liu was very happy, "When is the New Year ritual? Can we go?"
"From the second to the seventh day of the lunar month, in Xuandu Temple, in Changtian Temple, and in Jinxian Temple..." After the introduction, He Zhi said happily, "If you and Brother Ling can go, we can listen to my master and other Taoist masters discuss the Tao and fight together, and can also eat delicious food from Guan. Master also said that when the Lingbao Temple is built, we will hold a nine-day ritual!"
Lingbao Temple is a Taoist temple built by imperial edicts, and opening the temple rituals must be extraordinary. Jiang Liu's eyes are also bright, "We will definitely support us and open our eyes."
"The master said he would invite the second master to preside over the ritual of worshiping the Spiritual Bao Tianzun." It was extremely exciting to have a Taoist temple in Kang'an that belonged to him and his master, but it was built by imperial orders.
"My father is not a Taoist priest, and he can preside over the ritual?" Jiang Liu said curiously.
When talking about Mr. Jiang, his eyes and Zhimingliang's brighter eyes became brighter and his little face turned redder. "Of course! My master said that Mr. Er has a deep relationship with Taoism, so it is most appropriate for him to preside over the ritual."
Jiang Liu and Zhizheng were having a hot chat, and Jiang Ling suddenly said, "Don't sister go to Shengpingfang? Now it's time to go back and prepare."
"Ah? Oh." Jiang Liu and Hezhi said goodbye, "I want to go to the grandfather's house with my sister, and leave first."
"Let's go." He Zhi took out a peach wood talisman from his arms and handed it to Jiang Liu. "My master heard that your grandmother was in poor health, so he made this disease-relieving talisman with his own hands."
"You go back and thank the Taoist priest for me. In a few days, my sister and I will go over to thank you in person." Jiang Liu stretched out his hands to take it, thinking about what kind of New Year gift he should give to Taoist Yu Yuanzi.
After Jiang Liu left, He Zhi began to circle around and admire his new clothes and said happily, "This clothes are so good, and the shoes are very warm. Thank you Brother Ling."
Jiang Ling had a tight face, "Swap your clothes back and follow me to practice in the martial arts field."
"Ah? Oh." Although He Zhi couldn't bear to change his new clothes, he still answered honestly and asked in a low voice, "Brother Ling, we still need to practice today?"
"Have you learned your kung fu?" Jiang Ling held the wrist of his right hand with his left hand and turned his fist.
He Zhi immediately lowered his head, "No."
"The skill is diligent and the waste is frivolous." Jiang Ling strode outward, with a cold face.
If you want to marry his sister, you can only talk and make her happy. You also need to be a versatile talent in civil and military affairs, and you can make achievements when you grow up, so that your sister can live a comfortable life. It is still far from the point of being so good, and you must be well taught and tempered!
"Girl, aren't we going to Shengpingfang just now?" Qin Bai, who was following Jiang Liu, was a little confused. He suspected that he had remembered the wrong time, because there was still more than half an hour left.
Jiang Liu, carrying his hands behind his back, jumped forward on the garden road made of irregular stone slabs, "It's true, but we have to go back and pack up first."
Qinbai suddenly realized. That's right, the third girl was busy reading ancient books all day long, and asked the girl to prepare the New Year gifts sent to the Wang family.
When they returned to the West Courtyard, they found that Jiang Muyan was preparing a New Year gift to her grandmother. A few days ago, they had already sent a batch, and this time they gave them all exquisite and practical things: warm and comfortable forehead smears, medicinal materials that nourish yin and moisten lungs, and peace talismans requested from Dayunjing Temple.
Jiang Liu handed the peach wood talisman to his sister, "Master Yu Yuanzi heard that his grandmother was sick, so he made the disease-removing talisman with his own hands and asked He Zhi to bring it over."
"That's great!" Taoist Master Yu Yuanzi was so skillful. The talisman he made himself was the most effective. Jiang Muyan's beautiful Danfeng eyes were filled with joy, and asked Shutong to put the peace talisman away. He then found a brocade box to put the peach wood talisman in it and placed it on the wooden box containing medicinal materials. He said seriously, "We must thank Taoist Master Huan for his good fortune."
"Well, let's go to Wutongguan in a few days to thank him. After the Lingbao Temple is built, we will donate another incense money." Jiang Liu had already thought about it, "Hezhi said that starting from the second day of the Lunar New Year, Kang'an Six Dao Temple will hold a New Year ritual. I want to go with him to watch the fun."
Although Hezhi is a monk, his sister often interacts with him and it is also hampered by reputation. Jiang Muyan dissuaded, "There must be people everywhere in the Taoist temple when doing rituals. What should I do if I am squeezed and stepped on? It's better to have fun at home."
"Brother, I will go there too. He Zhi can take us to the inner courtyard, so I won't be squeezed in." Jiang Liu likes the fun and wants to go out for fun.
Jiang Ling also went? There was nothing wrong there. Jiang Muyan immediately felt relieved, "After going out, you have to follow Jiang Ling closely, don't run around."
"Okay." Jiang Liuhuan responded happily. In recent years, she was coaxed and spoiled by her family as children. In front of them, Jiang Liu almost forgot that she was an adult who traveled through time a thousand years later.
When he went to the Wang family in Shengpingfang to see his grandmother, Jiang Liu saw that the imperial physician's prescription was better than the previous doctor. Although his grandmother was still in the bed, she could sit up and no longer coughed one after another, and she had the strength to speak.
When asked his two granddaughters to come to the bed, Mrs. Wang praised Jiang Liu for a few words, then took Jiang Muyan's hand and asked carefully how the academic progress of Jiang Song and her son were doing. Jiang Muyan answered questions and was extremely patient and meticulous. After listening for a while, Jiang Liu couldn't help but open her mouth and yawn.
Every time she came to the Wang family, Jiang Liu could always feel that she was incompatible with the place. Although her grandmother would always show her closeness to her, Jiang Liu could see that in her grandmother's eyes she was a redundant person because she did not have the knowledge and temperament that a woman from a scholarly family should have. Therefore, Jiang Liu could not get close to her grandmother and did not like the Wang family.
Every time my father comes to the Wang family, the feeling should be similar to her. Because she looks and temperament more like her. It’s strange to say that she clearly has traveled through time, so how could she be so similar to her father? Jiang Liu’s eyes were distracted and she began to be distracted.
Mrs. Wang noticed that the little granddaughter was wandering in the sky, so she ordered the mother to get her favorite pastry and ordered, "Lu'er sits at the table and eats slowly."
"Yes." Jiang Liu ran to the table to eat pastries and stayed away from the academic circle. After Wang Youhan and Wang Youying came in, Wang Youhan joined the academic circle, and Wang Youying went to the table to form a foodie group with Jiang Liu.
Because the grandfather's family and the mother died because of the Jiang family, the two Wang sisters were polite and polite when facing the Jiang family sisters, but they lacked the intimacy between relatives. Therefore, the three people in the academic circle discussed the hot topic, but the foodie group deserves its reputation: only eating, not talking.
It was not until the meal was set on the table that the old lady held Mrs. Wang and sat on the soft couch, and Jiang Muyan served her to eat, that the academic discussion between the three turned into homely affairs.
Mrs. Wang said to Jiang Muyan, "Your cousin is about to give birth these days. You are ready to give birth to Lizhengfang a gift."
