Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Secretly satisfied
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said to the cattle dealer and Mrs. Sheng: "Uncle Xiang, Auntie, stop blaming Jin Nan, he doesn't want to fall and hurt himself!"

"The main reason is that the weather is really bad. We have to rush back. When the weather clears up, let's call our parents and them to come and play for a day, okay?"

Xiaoduo also nodded at the side, "Yes, I'll come back next time."

Sheng Nanniang looked confused, and looked at the cattle dealer with questioning eyes.

The cattle dealer was also looking at the sky outside, his brows furrowed.

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, he gritted his teeth: "Forget it, the weather is not beautiful, the future will last forever, let's go, I will send you over a tree!"

Just like that, Xiaoduo followed Yang Ruoqing and the cattle dealer with a little bit of disappointment, and left Xiangjiazhuang under the watchful eyes of Sheng Nanniang and Xiang Jinnan.

When the three of them were about to reach the uphill side of a tree, there was a shout behind them.

It was Xiang Shengnan's voice.

Xiaoduo was the first to turn around and saw that the person who came was indeed Xiang Shengnan, a trace of surprise and excitement flashed in her eyes.

So is Xiang Shengnan.

The eyes of the two simply met, and then they shyly staggered away.

Xiang Shengnan went straight to Yang Ruoqing, raised his hands and arched them: "Sister, I'm really sorry, you came to visit my father today, but I'm not at home, it's rude, I came here to apologize to my sister."

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "What crime is there to pay for? We all know that you sent your aunt away."

Xiang Shengnan smiled slightly, out of breath, with a few crystal drops of sweat hanging on his forehead.

He obviously has the same eyebrows, eyes and facial features as Xiang Jinnan, but Xiang Jinnan doesn't use the beauty version, while Xiang Shengnan seems to be a standard handsome guy, no wonder Xiaoduo fell in love with him at first sight.

On the side, the cattle dealer looked at Xiang Shengnan and was also secretly satisfied.

Yang Ruoqing said to Xiang Shengnan again: "I have something to say to your uncle, you go to the back and keep Xiaoduo company, she is timid."

Xiang Shengnan nodded, turned around and went to Xiaoduo behind.

Yang Ruoqing turned her head to look at the young couple behind her, the corners of her lips twitched, she turned her gaze away and walked and chatted with the cattle dealer, and slowed down a bit, so as to give the young couple behind her more time to get along with each other time……

"Uncle Xiang, look over there. I plan to build a Taoist temple over there to save and enshrine those lonely souls without owners. What do you think?"

Yang Ruoqing pointed to the large open space at the foot of the mountain across the river, and asked the cattle dealer beside her.

The cattle dealer was surprised when he heard the idea.

Then he followed Yang Ruoqing's guidance and looked over there...

"Qing'er, building a Taoist temple is not a trivial matter. If it is really completed and the incense is burned, it will be a great event with boundless blessings. However, it will cost a lot of money. Do you really care about it?" Have you figured it out?" the cattle dealer asked excitedly.

Yang Ruoqing nodded seriously: "No kidding, my father and Uncle Luo both know my plan, the reason why my father didn't come with us today is because of this matter, he went to talk to those elders in the village who respected me. The people discussed it."

She raised the corners of her lips, "It's a good thing to build a Taoist temple here, both public and private, and I will do it."

The cattle dealer was also infected by Yang Ruoqing's serious expression, he also became serious, and simply stopped, facing the opposite field and pondering.

Not far behind, Xiang Shengnan saw that the uncle and aunt in front of him had stopped, and were still pointing at the cemetery where his father lay there the night before, discussing something, Xiang Shengnan was at a loss.

"Duo'er, why did uncle and sister stop? What are they talking about?" Xiang Shengnan and Xiaoduo asked in a low voice.

Xiaoduo pursed her lips into a smile, and said proudly: "My sister sympathizes with those lonely souls without owners who cannot be supported by future generations. She plans to build a Taoist temple on the opposite side with her own money!"

Hearing this, Xiang Shengnan was also shocked.

"Duo'er, your sister is really amazing, she has great ambitions!" Xiang Shengnan said.

The corners of Xiaoduo's lips raised even higher, "It must be. My sister is amazing, and my brother-in-law is also amazing. In my mind, the two of them are the most powerful and kind-hearted people in the world! Back then, Xiaohua and I I was almost killed by the bad guys, it was my sister and my brother-in-law who rescued us both, I will never forget the scene that day!"

Xiang Shengnan nodded vigorously, "I'll help you remember it together, and we will repay your sister and your brother-in-law together in the future!"

Xiaoduo nodded sweetly.

The two young lovers also stood aside in a tacit understanding, distanced themselves from Yang Ruoqing and the others, and whispered their own whispers...

Here, the cattle dealer said to Yang Ruoqing, "Qing'er, what kind of plan do you have in mind to build a Taoist temple? What kind of Taoist temple do you plan to build?"

Yang Ruoqing thought for a while, and said, "Uncle Xiang, I haven't figured this out clearly yet. Do you have any good suggestions? Let's hear them."

The cattle dealer said: "I have been selling cattle to support my family since I was young. I am not boasting. I have been to several counties near here, and I have also seen some Taoist temples."

"If you plan to build a simpler one, a small hall, two or three side rooms, one or two statues of gods and Buddhas, and a yard around it, including the purchase of land, it will look like seven or eighty taels of silver."

Yang Ruoqing shook her head lightly, "It's too small, build it, and build it in a decent way, so that people far and near know that there is a Taoist temple here, not like an earth temple!"

The cattle dealer said again: "In this case, then build two or three small halls, a dozen side rooms, and build a dozen statues of gods, and surround a large courtyard with high walls in front and back. Calculated in this way, it will cost nearly two hundred taels of silver. "

Yang Ruoqing said: "Money is not a problem. What I think is that after the Taoist temple is built, to support the incense inside, not only the temples and statues of gods and Buddhas, but also Taoist priests are needed!"

"This Taoist... is not very easy to find. The kind of magic stick who is half-baked for food and drink is definitely not allowed to live in. Those who can live in must be Taoist priests with a good school, even if they are folk Taoist priests without a school. It is also possible, as long as he devotes himself to practice, he is also welcome to live in the temple here."

The cattle dealer grabbed a small beard on his chin as he walked, and said, "There are two kinds of Taoism, one is the descendant temple, and the other is the jungle temple."

"The descendants temple is passed down from generation to generation between masters and apprentices. Temple property can be inherited, and fellow Taoists from other sects can live temporarily, but they cannot intervene in temple affairs."

"Jungle temples are not allowed to accept disciples, and the temple property cannot be inherited. It belongs to all Taoists in the world. Taoist priests live regardless of sect, but folk Taoist priests are not allowed to live. Qing'er, then the Taoist temple you built... "

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows: "An improved version of the jungle temple."

"My Taoist temple, the temple property is in my hands, and the Taoist priests in it are like the masters in Haitang Academy. I will take care of them. No matter if it is incense or something, I will provide them with a place to live, regardless of sect. , are all welcome, and the master can also bring apprentices."
