Kneel down and beg to return to the field

Since the beginning of autumn, the weather in the capital has been hotter day by day, and the remaining prestige of the autumn tiger is fully displayed at this time.Walking in the streets and alleys of the capital, there are few pedestrians in places that used to be bustling, and the whole city seems to be exhausted by the heat.

It was not until the night of July [-]th that a heavy rain finally swept across the capital, which relieved the restless heat.

Early in the morning on the first day of August, the streets and alleys of the capital became lively.The night's torrential rain did not leave too many traces on the ground, but moistened the dry land for a long time, and the air in the capital seemed to be much fresher and cooler.

This kind of weather is naturally suitable for those who have been at home for many days to relax and travel, not to mention that today is the first day of junior high school, which is a good day for the female relatives to go out.So starting early in the morning, the wives of each family got busy, hurriedly ordered the servants to pack up their things, and then they all left the city to go to the Lingquan Temple on the outskirts of the city to offer incense.

Mrs. He was no exception. Although the wind and rain last night were noisy, the rare coolness still made her sleep well.Early this morning, I was full of energy and said to He Xiang, the big maid who was combing her hair: "Today is the first day of the new year, and it is rare and cool. I am going to go to Lingquan Temple to offer incense. You order me to hurry up." Get ready."

The wives, ladies and even the maids of rich families rarely have the opportunity to go out, not to mention that due to the weather in recent days, Mrs. He has been out of the door, and even the maids around her have been suffocated. .At this time, when he heard that he was going out, He Xiang laughed immediately, and while agreeing, he neatly combed Madam He's hair into a suitable bun.

After He Xiang had finished tidying up and went out with a happy smile, Mrs. He took a look at the slightly blurred bronze mirror in front of her, and seemed satisfied, so she took a few maids out of the courtyard and went to the Huayu Pavilion in the backyard. .

The spring breeze turns into rain, moistening things silently, this Huayu Pavilion is the name given by He Zhi, the eldest lady of the He family, to the attic where she lives.When Mrs. He brought someone over, He Zhi had finished dressing, had breakfast, and was looking for books in the study.

"Zhi'er, why are you reading in the study again? The weather is cool today, so it's time to go out for a walk." Madam He was a little impatient for her daughter who had passed Double Ten and was still in her boudoir, and was even more afraid that she would spend all day I'm bored at home.

He Zhi smiled slightly when she heard the words, her eyes were full of tenderness, and she didn't refute anything, so she put back the book she just found in her hand: "Yes, yes, what mother said is right, I just listen to you .”

Facing He Zhi, Mrs. He couldn't lose her temper.She gave birth to three sons, but only had this one daughter. Now all the sons have been released by her side, only He Zhi is left alone, and this daughter has been given such a reputation, how can she not feel distressed?Immediately walked over and took He Zhi's hand and patted it: "Okay, okay, mother didn't say anything wrong with you. It's just that the weather is rare today, and it's the first day of the new year. Mother is going to Lingquan Temple to offer incense. You Don't be bored at home, let's go together."

Naturally, He Zhi should not mention it, and the servants of the He Mansion also acted quickly.When Mrs. He went to have breakfast and He Zhi had changed out of her clothes, He Xiang had already come to tell her that everything was ready.

So without further ado, Mrs. He pulled He Zhi, led a group of servant girls, and went out in a mighty manner.

Lingquan Temple has been built for more than a hundred years. Before the founding of this dynasty, it was already well-known all over the world, and it is still very popular until now.Especially on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, there is an endless stream of people who come to Lingquan Temple to offer incense.

Mrs. He and He Zhi came too early today, and the carriage was blocked for a long time when they were down the mountain.When the two of them managed to climb up the mountain and came to the Daxiong Palace, the sun outside was already at the top of their heads.

In the Daxiong Palace, He Zhi and Mrs. He knelt on the futon.What He Zhi knelt down and prayed for was the well-being of her parents and the success of her brother, but she heard Mrs. He whispering in her ears, praying that she could find a good husband as soon as possible.

To be honest, He Zhi is no longer demanding on this matter.There are no sisters in her family, so there is no need to worry about her bad reputation and getting involved in the marriage of the sisters.Now I live comfortably at home, as long as I don't take those gossips to heart, there is nothing wrong with it.It's just that her parents can't feel at ease, they are still working hard on her marriage.

After Madam He knelt down and worshiped, she turned around and stuffed a lottery into He Zhi's hand: "Zhier, ask for a lottery."

He Zhi pursed her lips, but did not refuse.Even if it was for her parents' wishes, she knelt down and begged in a proper manner, and then shook the lottery with both hands.

The sound of "shua shua" bamboo sticks colliding sounded in the hall.Not long after, there was a soft "click", but the sign fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Mrs. He hurriedly stepped forward to pick it up, looked down, and finally relaxed a little.He Zhi went over to take a look, but saw that the sign said "No. 30 six lottery, top lottery", but it looked good.

Mrs. He took the sign, looked around, and found the master who was sitting at the side of the hall to untie the sign, and hurriedly ran over with He Zhi: "Master, what is the solution to this sign?"

The one who unwrapped the lottery was a wrinkled old monk who was sitting at the side of the main hall with his eyes closed and meditating.Hearing this, he opened his eyes, took a look at the label, and asked, "I don't know what Madam is asking?"

"Ask about marriage!" Mrs. He blurted out.

Hearing this, the old monk glanced at He Zhi who was beside Mrs. He, and said, "Marriage is destined by nature, don't force it, and don't worry about good things coming late. You don't need to look for it if you are close, and you will come back if you are destined."

This signature sounded simple, Madam He and He Zhi understood it as soon as they heard it.Mrs. He's eyes lit up immediately: "Master, this signed letter means that something good for my son is coming soon?"

The old monk casually put down the sign in his hand, nodded and said: "According to what is written in this sign, although the marriage of the little benefactor came late, it is considered to be happy. And in recent days, the little benefactor should have met that person."

When Mrs. He heard this, she couldn't hold back the smile on her face anymore. She wanted to ask more questions, but the old monk closed her eyes and said nothing.But even so, Mrs. He was already satisfied, and turned around and donated a lot of money for sesame oil.

The mother and daughter left the Daxiong Palace and found a place with few people. Madam He asked, "Zhi'er, the master said that you have already seen that person, and you think about who it is?"

He Zhi's expression was a little unnatural, she didn't usually have contact with outsiders, let alone a strange man, she couldn't remember it for a while.

Seeing Mrs. He next to her, she was naturally anxious.After thinking about it, he reminded him: "You went out to visit Jingming Lake two days ago, did you meet anyone that day?"

"Mother, the lake I swam alone that day was just to see the scenery and play the piano, nothing happened, so how could..." He Zhi suddenly paused, as if thinking of something.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. He hurriedly asked: "What's the matter? But what did you remember?"

It's just a one-sided relationship, so how can it count?He Zhi pursed her lips and shook her head: "No, I haven't met anyone."

Having said that, but He Zhi's previous meal naturally caught Madam He's eyes.It seems that He Zhi really thought of something, but she didn't want to say it, Madam He didn't force it, and it's impossible for He Zhi to go out alone, and when the time comes, she will call her personal maid, Xi Qiu, to ask, what will happen? I understand.

So her mood was not affected at all, Mrs. He led He Zhi to play in Lingquan Temple for a day with a smile on her face, and did not lead a group of people back to the mansion until after the application time passed.
