"My sister is absolutely right."

After hearing Su Nuannuan's words, Aunt Jing knew that she was not panicked, so she felt at ease. While the two were talking, it was noon, and the host personally led the monks to deliver the vegetarian meal. After Mrs. Fang thanked her, she invited her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law to have a meal. In addition, the girls and women also opened two tables of vegetarian dishes in the outer hall and yard. seat.

After a little movement of the chopsticks, Mrs. Fang smiled and said: "The taste of this vegetarian banquet is far from Nuan Nuan's craftsmanship. I knew that I should let Nuan Nuan cook a few dishes. I know all of them. I don't really like to eat."

Su Nuannuan also smiled and said: "Old lady, we have to bear with everything we say, otherwise people will say that our Anpinghou's mansion is despised, and even eating a vegetarian dish has to be occupied by the nest, how unpleasant it is to spread the word. ? We have to pay attention to the impact."

"That's right, but I didn't think carefully." Mrs. Fang laughed, then picked up the chopsticks and put another piece of mushroom into her mouth, looked outside and said, "Does Tingxuan still have no letter?" ? Why haven’t you come back now?”

This time, it was Xue Zhilan who comforted me: "Don't be impatient, old lady. I'm going to deal with important matters. How can I come back so soon? Even I have expected it myself, otherwise we can say that he won't come to pick me up, so let us stay in the Buddhist temple." Do you want to rest overnight?" After speaking, he turned to Xu Ranyun and said, "Yes, I should send someone back to the mansion, if I really want to stay in the mountain temple tonight, don't I have to prepare the bedding?"

Xu Ranyun smiled and said: "I don't need to worry about this, my sister, when I left in the morning, I thought that if the old lady was tired, or she was greedy for the mountain view in the temple, she wanted to stay for another two days, I already prepared the bedding and so on. "

Liu Min glanced at her, and said with a smile: "Ran Yun is really considerate in his work, no wonder the butler has managed the house in an orderly manner for a few months. In this regard, Rou'er is not as good as you."

When Xu Ranyun was praised, she immediately felt a little joy in her heart, and said with a quick smile, "Mrs. Min is over the award, and I'm just doing my best. The second grandma's housekeeper is actually better than me..." Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly saw Yang Madam's expression was indifferent, and it was only then that she realized that she had fallen into Liu Min's trap. Here it comes. I'm afraid that my mother-in-law doesn't like me even more, and my husband has always stood by her mother-in-law and dislikes Erfang and Liu Min in various ways. Although it's just a sentence, once it spreads...

Xu Ranyun's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he didn't dare to think about it any more, so he quickly shut up. Liu Min and Xue Zhilan were secretly proud. Mrs. Fang saw all this, but just kept silent. As for Su Nuannuan... This foodie is savoring the mountain mushroom tofu. Summarize the advantages and disadvantages of this dish in my heart, and in a blink of an eye, I have come up with five more delicious methods. She is going to contribute these kinds of practices, which can be regarded as forming a good relationship with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, so that they can bless her to be safe and happy in her life without worrying about food and clothing.

Although the lunch in the temple is not very satisfying. However, Mrs. Fang's mood was obviously much higher than in the morning. After lunch, she took a short rest and went to enjoy the chrysanthemum with great interest. Accompanied by Mrs. Yang Liu Min and others, a group of people talked and laughed while strolling among the chrysanthemum bushes on the back hill of Pushan Temple.

The chrysanthemums in Pushan Temple really deserve their reputation. Su Nuannuan was just watching the fun, but Aunt Jing was very familiar with it. She pointed to the famous plants to introduce to everyone. When she was talking and laughing happily, Su Nuannuan felt someone tugging at the corner of her clothes. In the morning, the servant sent by Aunt Jing was waiting far away under the eaves of the corridor, looking over here.

Su Nuannuan nodded to the boy, and quietly retreated to the convenience. Here she went to the old lady Fang and Mrs. Yang, and smiled while holding her forehead: "The old ancestor and his wife are going shopping first, I will drink at noon." After taking two sips of vegetarian wine, I feel a little dizzy at the moment, let me take a rest."

"Is this okay? You are still young, but you are not as good as my old bones. Could it be that you are lazy?" Mrs. Fang asked with a smile, and Su Nuannuan hurriedly laughed: "Old man Whatever the wife says, it's okay, good ancestor, please allow me this time, and I'll cook something delicious for you later."

"Listen, she knows the trick and knows how to pick on my weakness." Mrs. Fang said to everyone with a smile, how can everyone not please? They all nodded their heads in agreement. But no matter what, Su Nuannuan was not embarrassed at all, and she successfully "escaped."

Accompanied by Honglian Xiangyun, she hurried to the guest room where she was resting before, and saw the young man waiting in the yard, Su Nuannuan stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "How? But it has been explored all the way to the capital? Is there any?" What's abnormal?"

"Go back to grandma." The boy said in a low voice with an eager look on his face, "Your servant, Zhang San and Li Si have not gone far down the mountain, and they saw two giant trees and a dozen big stones on the road. The farmer on the side of the road said It was the convoy from Sichuan to Beijing that overturned the car, and the golden nanmu and white marble on the car were piled up on the road. Pedestrians can still detour from both sides, but the carriage is completely useless. I heard that some families came to Xun The noble family all went back home for this reason."

Su Nuannuan's complexion turned pale all of a sudden, and she swayed a few times, but then she calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Is there any other way from here to the capital?"

The boy shook his head, and his voice already trembled a little: "No... no, this official road is the only way from Pushan Temple to the capital, and there are only a few fork roads leading to the four gates of the capital."

"Grandma... this... this seems to be directed at us..."

Hong Lian's voice also trembled, but she heard Su Nuannuan shouted in a deep voice: "Shut up, you can't mess yourself up at this time." After speaking, she said to the boy: "When you went out, were you caught by someone? Discover?"

"No. We remembered my aunt's instructions and met two woodcutters. We said that we went to the village below the mountain to buy mountain products under the order of grandma." Su Nuannuan's reputation for delicious food has spread throughout the capital, This is indeed a very normal reason.

Don't be chaotic, Su Nuannuan, you must not be chaotic, even if you can't be as calm as a scumbag, you must not lose the face of the seniors who are at a loss.

Taking a deep breath, Su Nuannuan forced herself to calm down. After walking a few steps in the yard, she suddenly stopped and asked the boy, "When you saw the boulders rolling down the road, did you notice anything sneaky?" haunted person?"

"Probably not." The young man was also clever, and he said hastily after hearing the words: "The slave took a special look, and there are fields on both sides of the road. At this moment, most of the grain has been harvested, and there are only a few farmers, all of whom are on the ground. If there are strangers among them, they will definitely feel a little out of place, but seeing that they are talking and laughing very harmoniously, they must be very familiar neighbors and relatives. Besides, except for the trees on both sides of the road, the surrounding There is no place to hide people. Grandma, don’t blame the servant for talking too much. The two big golden nanmu trees are really too big, not to mention the white marble stones. The largest one is as tall as a person. If someone wants to use this It is enough to cut off our escape route, there is no need to keep people there to watch."
