Chapter 108 The Family Temple Bickering (2)
Shangguan Family Temple

"Shuyue?"

The Qin family was sent to the family temple by two mothers-in-law half-supported and half-struggled all the way. Because on weekdays only people come to the family temple for sacrifices or on the anniversary of the death of relatives, so the huge yard is empty and creepy. The poplar tree had already sprouted green buds, but it didn't dilute the darkness in the yard at all, but added a touch of inexplicable weirdness.

Because the Shangguan Mansion is a century-old family, and the family members of the past dynasties are all dignitaries of Dayong, the family temple was built very majestic. The plate-sized hexagonal floor tiles are all made of inkstone called "earth pearls" in Dayong.The color of inkstone is as its name suggests, black as ink, and the best inkstone is bright and uniform without impurities. The value of a palm-sized inkstone is equivalent to a pearl. Therefore, it is not so much that the floor tiles of the family temple are paved with inkstone. It is better to say that it is paved with pearls.

The ink stone absorbs light, whether it is sunlight or light shining on the ink stone, it is like sinking into the sea without any reflection.

The main body of the family temple has only one large room with three open rooms, plus a utility room where things are usually stacked, nothing else.

Mrs. Qin looked up and saw a plaque with white characters on a black background on the main entrance of the family temple, which read "A Family of Loyalty and Bravery". The home protects the family and the world", and the right book "The heroic generals will last forever". As the aunt of the Shangguan mansion, the Qin family knows that the three horizontal plaques were given by the founding emperor of Dayong to the ancestors of the Shangguan family. It's just a few plaques, but in the century of Dayong, only the Shangguan Mansion has such an honor.

The two rough envoys sent Qin Shi to the gate of the yard and left in a hurry as if they had seen the plague. They didn't even help to arrange Qin Shi's luggage, so they casually threw it on Qin Shi's door. under his feet.

Seeing the backs of the two women leaving in a hurry, Qin's eyes flashed sinister. She bent down and picked up the luggage at her feet, saying that the luggage was just two pieces of laundry that she packed in a hurry.

It was a sunny day just now, but for some reason, a few dark clouds drifted over, which coincidentally covered all the sun, and the black stone ground was pitch black, and the gate of the ancestral hall was blown open by the wind, creaking and creaking The sound of ah echoed in the empty yard.

Aunt Qin subconsciously wanted to go out from the gate, but when she turned around, she saw a figure leaning obliquely at the gate, dressed in white and plain with black hair, but her face was blurred. It was Qin who was usually a bit courageous. At this moment, Shi was also covered in cold sweat, his feet seemed to be nailed in place and he couldn't move for half a step, so he could only watch helplessly as the white figure approached step by step.

"Second Aunt, what's wrong?"

As soon as the gentle voice sounded, Qin felt that her internal organs had returned to their original positions.

"Shuyue?"

"What, why does Second Aunt look like she doesn't recognize a slave?"

"Shuyue, why are you dressed like this in broad daylight?"

Although Qin Shi is an aunt who is usually favored by the old lady, but facing the first-class celebrity in front of this old lady, Qin Shi does not dare to offend, and even flatters her. However, the two of them made it clear before that one gave the money and the other spread the news. Once the incident happened, no matter who it was, no one was allowed to bring out the other person, otherwise it would be death.This kind of relationship lasted for five or six years. Although I gave countless vain money, the news I got from Shuyue really allowed me to accurately grasp the old lady's thoughts and preferences. Take care of yourself and protect your brothers and sisters!
"Come to the family temple to face the wall, should I wear red and green like my aunt?"

After all, Shuyue was used to being arrogant and domineering in Shoukangyuan, and when interacting with Qin's family, Qin's coaxing was soft-spoken, so she didn't look like a half-servant to Qin's Shuyue.

"I'm just asking..."

Seeing Shuyue's displeasure, Mrs. Qin felt a little contemptuous in her heart. When she didn't know what this little hoof was thinking, she thought that one day she would climb into the general's bed and earn an aunt, but she still thought about her face. There is no extra expression.

"What? Facing the wall?"

As if awakened suddenly from a dream, it took Qin a long time to notice the word "face the wall" in Shuyue's words just now. For a moment, her eyes were open as if the bell of the past life was hanging on the eaves of the family temple, and her usual prudence disappeared. Wujing, didn't Shuyue stand beside the old lady just now to be affectionate, why was she punished to face the wall in the family temple just like herself in the blink of an eye? Could it be that Shuyue was exposed for making eyeliner for herself?
