Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 153

With Mr. Qin's permission, Jin Yu became bolder. The operation of the chess and card club can be described as extremely compact, and everything follows the practice of later generations - the "big army" has not moved, and the advertisements go first!Guanshi Xie strongly agrees with Jinyu's idea, saying that it is a new project that combines entertainment and elegance, can be admired in business, and has a bright future.

Jin Yu is still the same way, and he no longer cares after pointing fingers. The rules these days are more familiar to Xie Guanshi than him, so Jin Yu is still very relieved of Xie Guanshi.Manager Xie proposed to contact the government to arrange a venue to co-host the Hungry Ghost Festival. Although it was expensive, Jin Yu still waved his hand—yes!Jin Yu really didn't expect that there would be a "title naming" activity similar to later generations in this year. It seems that civil servants in the Tang Dynasty still had a lot of money outside the system.

When Manager Xie was busy, Jin Yu was not idle. How to deal with cotton still needs Jin Yu's personal guidance, others have no experience!Li Ke helped to plant a load of cotton seeds. Although the cotton production is not as high as that of later generations, the production is still very impressive.There is no seed removal machine, everything has to be done by hand, so the side yard of the Jin Mansion is full of excitement, big girls, young daughter-in-laws, mature women, and even gray-haired grandmas are here, who will let Yang Yingkai treat her well? ?Bring a small horse with you, ten catties is two cents, and there is a meal in the middle, where can you find such a good job?
After the cottonseed is separated out, the remaining work is even more massive——playing cotton!The slingshots of later generations are all made of beef tendon, but beef tendon is hard to find these days, Jin Yu took out the deer tendon in distress, originally he planned to use deer tendon as a secondary slingshot, but it seems that he can only temporarily rely on it up.

Jin Yu blasted Yang Ying, who asked for a visit, out of the "cotton plucking workshop" (actually a side room), and locked the door to death, because he couldn't afford to lose that person. Add a white apron on the head, just like a future chef.

In Xiaoshangougou, where Jinyu lived in his previous life, every year there are tourists who play cotton. When Jinyu was a child, he squatted next to others and listened to free solo concerts, which has a deep memory.I don't feel tired when I see others working, and I know how it feels when I do it myself.At the beginning, Jin Yu hummed the "Song of Playing Cotton" with great interest, but later it became a mechanical labor. In the end, Jin Yu only insisted on playing for half a game. sharp.

Playing cotton also has sequelae. When the night comes, after blowing the lamp and pulling out the wax, Jin Yu's skilled dragon claw skill is no longer accurate. Just check it out."

"Succeed, lady, look at the arrangement." Jin Yu still wanted to occupy the high ground, but his arm was so sore, so he finally gave up.

"Husband, do you want to see Han Wuxing?" Yang Ying nominated a candidate. No wonder Yang Ying thought of Han Wu for this kind of physical work. It can be said that people practice in summer and winter in winter. Jinyu just jogs in such a hot day. Han Wu played with stone locks every day, and each stone lock weighed five or sixty catties, and it took him an hour to play with each other!
"Success." Although Jin Yu said that he had trained with the special forces, it was a few years ago. Since he returned to the mountain village, he has not practiced again. He is just stronger than ordinary people based on his foundation back then.Without the help of the lion, he would not have been able to handle the thrilling adventures he encountered when he first came to Datang.

Jin Yu lay sprawled on the bed, all the muscles in his body were tense, if he could hang a small flag somewhere, it would definitely be a grand occasion for the flag to fly. "Today, a lady-changer is on top, and I'm so tired of my husband that I'm going to die."

"Pfft!" Yang Ying's pretty face blushed, "I'm so tired, you're still a ghost!" Although she said so, Yang Ying fulfilled Jin Yu's wish.The last time I went to Qin Qiong's house, the mother and daughter inevitably brought up the topic of "children". Yang Ying is now a little bit demonic, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she will not let go of a chance.

A certain son said: No matter how good the martial arts are, one is afraid of kitchen knives;Jin Yu claims to have given Han Wu what he has learned all his life, including the "Song of Playing Cotton". At the beginning, Han Wu was quite happy, but once the work started, it was completely different!Han Wu's stamina is stronger than Jin Yu's (don't think too much, Hue refers to picking cotton), but he can't stand the devastation of "playing cotton", and his symptoms are getting worse day by day.At the beginning, Han Wu only trembled, but in the end, as long as Jin Yu came to say "play cotton~~~", Han Wu's right hand twitched up and down as if holding a wooden hammer tightly.If Han Wu fights with the enemy in the future, as long as the enemy sings "Pick the cotton~~~~", Han Wu will undoubtedly lose.

After Han Wu worked hard day and night for 49 hours, the "Hungry Ghost Festival" arrived.July [-]th is one of the birthdays of the "Three Officials" of Taoism, and it is also the "Menglan Festival" of Buddhism, so Buddhism and Taoism will hold large-scale "reporting performances" on these two days. In the era of lack of entertainment, Attracted many fans to worship.

The Hungry Ghost Festival is also one of the four major ancestor worship festivals in Chinese traditional festivals, so the Tang government is very generous to stop the dynasty for a day and give officials all over the country a day off.In the Tang Dynasty, ancestor worship on the Ghost Festival did not stipulate that it must be held on July [-]th. The ancestral hall supervised by Yang Ying had already been completed. On the afternoon of the [-]th, Jinyu burned paper and incense for Grandpa Tang. It is done in accordance with the rules of later generations.This time Jin Yu didn't have much sorrow, the dead are gone, and it is right for the living to cherish their blessings.

In the early morning of the [-]th day, Jin Yu asked someone to drive the carriage and prepared to take his wife out for a trip. Han Wu couldn't count on it. If he took it out, he might be considered ghost possessed or convulsions, so Hu Yue took over the driving.

Jin Yu is now an earl, and according to the rules, he can ride in a three-horse carriage. Because Mr. Qin told him to keep a low profile, he only let Hu Yue tie up two horses. He didn't intend to ride a horse, but planned to squeeze into the carriage with his wife. Talk about esoteric topics like life.

The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is skinny.This carriage does not have a shock-absorbing device, and it almost knocked Jin Yu out of hemorrhoids all the way down.For the sake of himself and his wife's ass, Jin Yu planned to make a shock-absorbing version of the carriage after returning home. Of course, this work must be done by others, because Jin Yu doesn't understand``````
The carriage was getting slower and slower, Jin Yu was thinking about going down and taking two steps, Hu Yue reported through the curtain of the carriage: "Master, madam, there are too many people ahead, the carriage cannot enter."

"Let's go, get out of the carriage and walk." This was exactly what Jin Yu wanted, and he helped Yang Ying get off the carriage.

"The old slave is waiting for you over there, just shout out once you come out." Hu Yue said, pointing to the open space on the side of the flow of people.

Jin Yu looked in the direction Hu Yue pointed, hehe, the ancients were really advanced, isn't that the parking lot?There are already quite a few carriages parked there, of all sizes.It seems that the ancients were very thoughtful, which is no wonder. These days, there are no pagers, mobile phones, and there are so many people. If you get separated, you can’t contact them, and there is no taxi to take. You can only make an appointment in advance and wait to pick them up. . "Come on, now that you're out, don't be idle, just take a walk and have a look, and come back before noon." Jin Yu is very considerate, and gave Hu Yue a vacation, provided that he doesn't delay the couple's meal.

"Master Xie, Mrs. Xie!" Hu Yue said his thanks and left.

Today, the temple where Jin Yu brings his daughter-in-law to visit is Daxingshan Temple. Daxingshan Temple was built in the period of Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty. It was first called "Zunshan Temple". After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Ying's grandfather built it Scale expansion, because it is located in Jing'anfang, so it was renamed "Daxingshan Temple".

The location where we got off the bus was one street away from Daxingshan Temple. Small vendors set up stalls on both sides of the street, and the goods from south to north were complete.There is no full-time urban management these days, only the occasional officers and soldiers patrolling past to maintain order on the scene.

"Is there anything you want? Let's go shopping." Jin Yu turned his head and asked Yang Ying.In front of everyone, Yang Ying refused to let Jin Yu hold her hand, and insisted on staying half a step behind Jin Yu, looking very feminine.

"No, let's go first and offer incense sticks first, and it's not too late to go shopping after we come out." Yang Ying shook her head and said, she dare not say that Yang Jian and Yang Guang also believe in Buddhism, but Yang Ying's mother does, Yang Ying When Ying was young, it was not uncommon for Chen Guiren to eat fast and chant Buddha. Yang Ying also respected Buddha very much.

"Success." Jin Yu didn't object. In his previous life, he really didn't go to the temple very much, so he had the right to go sightseeing. "Maybe you can still see your grandfather's handwriting."

"Husband, don't mention what happened back then." Yang Ying doesn't care much about her former status, but she is very satisfied with her life now. The reason why she agrees to come out with Jin Yu is also to pray to Buddha and make a wish. If she can have a baby soon It couldn't be better.

"Hey, that lady should follow closely, don't get lost." Seeing that Yang Ying didn't want to mention the past, Jin Yu shut his mouth and just moved forward along the flow of people.

There were many pilgrims who came to burn incense and worship Buddha. When they approached the gate, there were more and more novice monks who kept order outside. They called "almsgiver" and "Amitabha Buddha" and so on, which seemed very novel to Jin Yu.

The entrance of Daxingshan Temple is not big. From the outside, it looks very similar to the monkey monkey in the cartoon of Monkey King vs. Yang Jian, but without the flagpole that the monkey became.

After entering the gate of the temple, there were two young novice monks who distributed incense to devout men and women on both sides, one stick per person, no more to give, and no charge, much more serious than a certain presiding officer who consecrated a woman who had lost her footsteps in later generations.

There are still a lot of sandalwood these days, and a small amount of sandalwood is mixed in the incense, which can play a role in calming the mind and calming the mind when it is burned. In addition, there are many people who use the incense, and the smell becomes stronger, and the effect is more obvious.There are monks in the temple beating wooden fish and chanting scriptures. Even Jin Yu, a non-Buddhist, would subconsciously burn a stick of incense when he came here.
