Reborn ten times, she is the real daughter of the Marquis Mansion and she doesn't pretend anymo
Chapter 41: Tell Her Not to Take Advantage of Her Age
But she also wanted to let this girl know that even a dignified marquisate had its own rules.
We can't not set rules just because this girl grew up outside and hasn't learned anything.
Just because you lived in the palace as a child, does that mean you don’t have to learn the rules?
Seeing that the old lady was determined and did not want to settle the matter peacefully and back down, Marquis Yong'an did not speak out immediately, but considered the family recognition banquet two days later.
Since the mother is still angry, let her vent today.
Tang'er did not refuse her grandmother's challenge and is indeed a good child who is sensible and considers the overall situation.
He is broad-minded and magnanimous. He is so open-minded and calm at home. He will perform even better when he attends banquets in other mansions in the future.
Marquis Yong'an looked at Yuntang with great satisfaction.
Yun Tang didn't care what Yong'an Hou was thinking. She smiled faintly and said:
"My grandmother has been worshipping Buddha for decades, but I don't know which precepts she has followed or which Buddha she has worshipped."
"Yun Tang is dull, but he has been to several temples when he was young, and met some eminent monks and nuns who have done good deeds. They all speak in a Buddhist way and have a Buddhist heart, and they are consistent in their words and deeds."
"Are you accusing grandma of being hypocritical?!" The old lady understood immediately and glared at Yuntang, her voice rising two notches.
Yuntang clasped his fists and bowed, his smile unchanged, his voice still calm and composed.
"Grandma, you are overthinking. Yuntang just heard that Buddhists are kind and compassionate, and that they avoid greed, anger, and ignorance, and understand the world and the falsehood of things."
"She kept the precepts and rules, practiced the Buddha's oral meditation, and cultivated the Buddha's mental method. I wonder what precepts and meditation did grandma keep?"
As Yuntang spoke, he glanced at the wine and food that were being served one after another, and curled his lips slightly, completely ignoring the old lady's dark face and stiff body.
Her voice became even softer.
"My grandmother has been worshipping Buddha for decades, but I wonder what kind of vegetarian food she eats? Morning or evening vegetarian food? First or fifteenth day of the lunar month vegetarian food? Or does she only observe the flower vegetarian food?"
The old lady felt that every word the wild girl said was hinting at and mocking her for believing in a fake Buddha!
Even the three brothers of Yong'an Marquis looked at Yuntang in a daze, and for a moment they couldn't find the voice.
They all seemed to be mute.
The others didn't dare to say a word, their heads buzzing.
Yuntang, however, looked at the old lady with a calm smile on his face.
He did not continue to be aggressive, but did not give up either. Instead, he stood in front of the old lady and waited for her answer.
The old lady held the jade Buddhist beads tightly in her hand.
After a long while, the old lady let out a sigh and glanced at Yuntang with a serious look.
"You are so good! How dare you bully my grandmother like this? Is this the Taoist priest you taught in your Taoist temple?"
Are you trying to put the blame on Taoism?
Yun Tang smiled slightly and said softly, "Grandmother, if you disobey the Emperor's order, the Emperor will let it go for Yun Tang's sake."
"But my grandmother has been worshipping Buddha for decades but has not realized the Buddhist teachings of non-contention and non-anger. I'm afraid she is worshipping a false Buddha?"
"How dare you!" The old lady slammed the table, causing the dishes on the table to clatter.
"Tang'er!" Marquis Yong'an was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped Yuntang, telling him not to push the old lady into a corner.
Yuntang just laughed and stared at the old lady with clear eyes.
"Grandmother may not like Yuntang, but she cannot bully the Taoist priests because of this, especially after the emperor issued an edict to worship Taoism."
"Yun Tang is filial to Grandma and is willing to set rules and accept teachings from Grandma, but Grandma, please don't forget that Yun Tang is a Taoist priest."
"If this dispute over faith really gets out, it won't be a good thing for the Marquis' Mansion."
"Especially when the Marquis' wife is so willful and disregards her dignity, Grandmother should put the overall situation and the interests of the Marquis' mansion first."
He really spoke with two sides of the same accord, which made the old lady choke on her breath, unable to swallow or spit it out.
Yuntang used the Buddha that the old lady believed in to mock her for believing in a fake Buddha and being hypocritical.
He also used the matter of the Emperor's devotion to Taoism to warn the old lady that if the matter got out of hand, the Marquis's Mansion would not be able to clean up the mess.
Finally, he reminded the old lady not to take advantage of her age and seniority and not to lower the status of the Taoist sect by bullying the younger generation.
The old lady, who had been honored all her life, was speechless after being taught a lesson by a thirteen-year-old granddaughter who had just returned home.
Marquis Yong'an didn't expect Yuntang to subdue his grandmother without making a fuss, and he was even more impressed.
I didn't expect that this child was neither humble nor arrogant, had solid reasons, was strong and could not be bullied, and knew when to advance and retreat.
As the eldest daughter of the Marquis's family, she will not be afraid of being bullied when she goes out in the future.
"Mother, Tang'er is right. We should focus on the overall situation and not let outsiders see and gossip about us." Marquis Yong'an quickly spoke up to smooth things over.
"Besides, the princess has such a bad temper..."
He paused, and said helplessly, "We can't rely on her in the mansion, and mother has to take charge of the situation."
These last words also gave the old lady a way out.
If it were before, the old lady would definitely not be moved.
But Yuntang's words just now also made her realize that this girl was not as well-behaved as she appeared, and her scheming was not like that of a thirteen-year-old country girl.
Especially since he insisted on not following Taoism, if the emperor knew about this or the censor reported it, it would indeed bring disaster to the marquis's mansion.
The old lady felt guilty and her attitude softened a lot.
She glanced at Yuntang coldly, her eyes were hurt by her unchanging smile, and finally she curled her lips and snorted.
"If it weren't for the dignity of the Marquis's Mansion, I should really teach you the rules!"
"Grandmother is so kind. Yuntang is always ready to learn from you." Yuntang smiled faintly and bowed again.
The old lady's eyelids twitched and she scolded, "Go back to your table and stop being an eyesore here."
Yuntang smiled softly again and was about to say something to annoy the old lady when a shout suddenly came from outside.
"Qinglong Guard's Left Imperial Guard Commander Zhuang Mingcheng, please call for the Dragon Head!"
As soon as Nuanxiangge resumed his voice, he was shocked by the sudden shout.
Qinglong Guard?
Why could they hear voices outside the mansion?
Inexplicably, many people thought of the day when Yun Tang first returned to the Marquis' Mansion...
When all eyes turned to Yuntang, they saw Yuntang had already arrived at the door of Nuanxiang Pavilion in a few flashes.
Everyone's head buzzed again, and they were confused and inexplicably excited.
Tanger!
younger sister!
big sister!
Great niece!
Except for the old lady who had a dazed and confused look on her face, everyone else stood up and hurried out, wanting to know what was happening outside.
Butler Hu was standing in the outer corridor of Nuanxiang Pavilion, asking about the preparation of the remaining dishes, when he was also stunned by the sudden voice that came from nowhere.
When he came to his senses, Yuntang's figure had already flashed past him, and disappeared after a few rises and falls.
"Hu Wei, what's going on?" Marquis Yong'an looked at Butler Hu and asked blankly.
Butler Hu's forehead was sweating, and he quickly bowed and said, "I'll go and take a look."
The voice and the man who introduced himself were not from the Marquis's Mansion, but the voice was transmitted into the Mansion, so he could only go to the door to ask.
Jiang Yanting and Jiang Yanxuan couldn't wait to chase their sister and ran towards the gate of the mansion.
