The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 85 0085, the lady Situ Yan

Tang Seng is in a very good mood these days, because the apprentices are very obedient.No matter what he wanted them to do, no one would question it.This feeling was so wonderful that Tang Seng's self-confidence exploded.If not, how could he lead the crowd to stay overnight in the county town?

Xiniu Hezhou, one of the four continents in the mortal world, five masters and apprentices passed by the county.Tang Seng insisted on staying at Situ's house, a wealthy family in the county, because he wanted to join in the fun.The Situ family is preparing to recruit relatives these two days, it seems that the youngest daughter of the Situ family is about to choose a husband.

Master Situ is a man of culture, he made his fortune from scratch.He went to a private school for two years when he was very young, but he was able to teach several high-ranking children.As he is now, who can see that he has only been in school for two years.

Most of the words are quoted from the classics, and the words are gentle and humble in talking and laughing.Master Situ warmly entertained Tang Seng and his disciples, especially for Tang Seng.Brother Hou and I have already seen that this old man Situ is interested in the master.If our guess is correct, we should have taken a fancy to him.

Tang Seng is an elm lump, he believes everything he says.Master Situ said that he has always believed in Buddhism, so he invited us to his home as guests.Since we entered the house, the entire Situ family has not seen a single thing related to Buddha.Even in the magnificent living room, there are only a few rare treasures but not a single Buddhist vessel.

The second senior brother didn't have the time to be polite to him, so he asked Master Situ for food as soon as he sat down.He was starved to death these two days, if the master hadn't been watching him closely, he would have looked for something else to fill his stomach.

The third senior brother doesn't like to talk, and he has been following at the end of the team for the past few days.Lugging the luggage and hurrying on the road, Brother Monkey and I once persuaded him to hang the luggage on the horse.The third senior brother shook his head, but Tang Seng didn't want to, saying that hanging on the horse's back would affect his riding.

Little Bailong faithfully carried his master on his back, even when it was windy, rainy, and cold, as long as his master needed him, he would never complain.

While the master was greeting Master Situ, Brother Monkey and I went to the stables in the backyard.Get some good grass for Xiao Bailong, and reward him, the Third Prince of Xihai.I went to the front yard to stay with Sha Laosan for a while, and he needed to guard his luggage before he settled down.When he returned to the living room, Bajie was already full.

I saw Brother Hou hiccupping non-stop, talking while hiccupping.I couldn't hear clearly intermittently, neither Brother Hou nor I could understand what Bajie was expressing to him.Quietly listening to Master Situ chatting with the master, it was only then that he somewhat understood what Bajie said just now.

Master Situ was looking for a son-in-law for his daughter Situ Yan, and he fell in love with Tang Seng at first sight.With delicate features and dignified appearance, there was a strong sense of simplicity in the conversation.This is exactly what Master Situ has always expected, and it is also the favorite type of his daughter Situ Yan.She doesn't want the other party's wealth, but only wants to spoil her alone.

Situ Yan is the apple of the eye in the family, because her mother passed away early, Situ Yan played with her three older brothers since she was a child.Back then, in front of mother, the three elder brothers promised to stay with Situ Yan forever.They delivered, and more than promised.

In the living room, the quiet needle dropping could be heard, but Tang Seng was still chatting with Master Situ enthusiastically.He hadn't noticed Master Situ's intentions until Brother Monkey reminded him.Yumu Luan finally came back to his senses, and was trying his best to evade to Master Situ at this time, wanting to let Master Situ let them go.

There is such a good thing in the world, since it is delivered to the door on its own initiative, Master Situ must let his daughter see it.Promise Tang Seng that he will not force it, and if it feels right after meeting, it will become inappropriate.

There is nothing wrong with what they said, since Tang Seng also promised to stay just now, at this time he can only knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach.Brother Hou and Bajie smirked gloatingly, and Tang Seng stared at them helplessly.What does it mean to lift a rock and shoot yourself in the foot? Tang Seng was really lucky this time.

Who is Situ Yan?
No one who lives in the county city does not know this name, even if someone does not know who the county magistrate is, they will not know who Situ Yan is.

The reason is simple, because the Situ family has a huge influence in the county.Master Situ is a wealthy man, but he has never done any act of bullying and dominating the market.And he likes to do good deeds the most. Every year in March and March, he will distribute clothes or food to the nearby people.Of course, not everyone can receive it. It must be a poor household registered with the county guard.

Since Situ Yan was eight years old, she has participated in charity events held at home every year.Every year, ten people are selected for key assistance, and most of the ten people are children.Situ's family will provide them with education until they grow up.Situ's family will help those widowed and lonely old people by sending them enough food and clothing to live on every year.

Some people say that Master Situ is hypocritical, while others ridicule him for hype.Many people gathered at the gate of Situ's Mansion, insisting that Master Situ come out to confront them.They said that they were all poor households, but they had never received help from Master Situ.Since Master Situ is so kind and generous, why can't he find them a job to make a living.

Master Situ had heard these words many times, but he never opened the door of the mansion to confront them.He has been in the mall for so many years, of course he does not lack this bit of insight.Those people are well-known gangsters in the county, who eat too much and are lazy every day.If it weren't for someone's instructions, how would they dare to make trouble at the gate of Situ's mansion next to the sheriff's mansion.

Tang Seng agreed to Master Situ's proposal, and Master Situ asked the maid to invite the young lady.Brother Hou and I took Bajie and left the hall, staying here can only be a light bulb.Master Situ is very good at coming, seeing that we are so self-conscious, he immediately ordered someone to prepare a vegetarian meal.You see, those who gave Bajie to Le are even more excited than when they married Gao Cuilan.

Stopping in front of a landscape painting, Tang Seng admired the painting without distraction.He was the only one left in the living room, and Master Situ had already gone to the back hall.Tang Seng couldn't refuse the hospitality, not to mention he was also curious about Situ Yan.Master Situ has been praising his daughter, making Situ Yan look like a fairy in the sky.

Three-inch golden lotus stepped over the threshold, and a pair of delicate embroidered shoes stepped on her feet.The hem of the white skirt swayed slightly, accompanied by the shaking of the lotus step.Step by step, he approached Tang Seng, raised the left hand of the orchid finger and put it on the fan.In her right hand, she tightly holds the half-closed ancient sandalwood fan, which is her favorite object since she was a child, and she has to hold it even when she sleeps.

A simple and elegant white dress, a red shawl, and long hair hanging down to the waist.Even without seeing the appearance, these alone are enough to score eighty points.

Small cherry mouth, willow-leaf eyebrows, pink face, a pair of big watery eyes.There are a pair of heart-shaped pendants on her white ears and a red string around her neck.At this time, she covered half of her face with her fan, and secretly looked at the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty with his back turned to her.

The servant girl told her just now that several monks from the Tang Dynasty who were passing by came to the mansion.One of them was very handsome and very knowledgeable.The master is very satisfied with him, and hopes that the young lady can meet the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty.

Situ Yan knew his father's temperament best. If he didn't have some skills, it would be impossible for this person in front of him to catch his father's eyes.It is not difficult to see from his back alone that the eminent monk from the Tang Dynasty is in good shape.

"Elder Tang, my daughter is being polite."

Hearing this, Tang Seng turned around suddenly, and saw the woman in white covering half of her face.This woman is no shorter than him, and her figure is definitely the top of the best.Just relying on the slender waist that can be grasped, I am afraid that many men will flock to her.

With an awkward cough, Tang Seng clasped his hands together and bent down to salute.His actions just now were really inappropriate, and Situ Yan's cheeks were flushed when he saw Situ Yan.If it hadn't been covered with a fan, Tang Seng might have seen it by now.

Situ Yan was pampered by her three elder brothers since she was a child, plus Master Situ spoiled her.She has been living in a honey jar, living a life with clothes to eat and mouth to open.She also thought about changing her lifestyle, but in the end she couldn't match the persistence of her three brothers.They have long regarded pampering as a habit, and they never have the heart to let Situ Yan experience any pain.

The two sat down one after another, and Situ Yan asked Tang Seng what he thought of the landscape painting.Inheriting the artistic gene of his parents, Tang Seng pointed out the advantages and disadvantages of that painting without any pressure.He really didn't learn these things, as if he was born with it.Whenever he sees similar things, he will always be attracted by invisible things.

If he read it correctly, the painting just now must have been made by a woman.He couldn't explain it in logical language, but he was extremely sure that the owner of the painting was a woman.

"Miss Situ, if the poor monk's guess is correct, you should have painted that landscape painting." Tang Seng said.

Situ Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.In my heart, I have a little more affection for Tang Seng, and he is indeed an eminent monk who can enter his father's eyes.There are many literati and scholars who come to Situ's house as guests, and many people have judged the landscape painting.

Most of them are praising the goodness of the painting, and very few people judge the flaws of that painting.That painting was drawn by Situ Yan when she was 13 years old. At that time, she only studied with a painter for one year.Then he could create landscape paintings alone, and the first painting was full of praise from the famous painters in the county.

Master Situ was happy about this for half a month, because none of Master Situ's three sons learned to draw.They seem to have no artistic ability, and they can read and write faster than the other.But when it comes to painting, the three sons combined are not as good as Situ Yan.

This may be talent, just like Tang Seng at this time.I have never learned to paint, but I can see the advantages and disadvantages of that pair of landscape paintings.Even if the owner of the painting was present, he had to accept his comments with pleasure.It's just that Situ Yan is very curious, why Elder Tang, who has such a talent, escaped into Buddhism.

There are also many monasteries in Hezhou, Xiniu, and many monks in the county town.Every year, monks come to Situ Mansion as guests, and Lord Situ treats all monks with the highest standards.Master Situ has been a vegetarian all his life, so he was able to get Situ Yan, a precious girl, in his old age.

When others ask for a son, he asks for a daughter. If you don't have a daughter in this life, you will die with peace.Master Situ never mentioned to outsiders the various prices he paid for begging for a daughter during that time.

Tang Seng's heart was pounding like a deer's, as if it was about to jump out of his body.If he hadn't tried his best to protect his chest, maybe the beating heart would appear in his hand in the next second.

He had just seen Situ Yan's face clearly, otherwise he wouldn't have lost control like this.It was a face that Tang Seng would never forget, and it was a face that Tang Seng lingered in his dreams.It was a face that was still fresh in Tang Seng's memory, and it was a face that Tang Seng didn't dare to look at carefully.

Youth is easy to grow old. Time is gone. At this moment, he is homesick.
