Chapter 4 Inviting the Moon to Contemplate

The two fairies made a bet in the heaven, but it had no effect on Wei Qian in the world of mortals.

Wei Qian concentrated on comprehending Mingyue, but this movement finally attracted the attention of others.

"Huh? This girl's aptitude is indeed good." A surprised Taoist nun came outside the courtyard.Yuehe Taoist robe, wooden hairpin coiled hair, holding a whisk, as soon as he entered the courtyard, the whisk swept away the moonlight in the courtyard. "But the master has already said that she is a world of mortals, and if she does not enter the immortal sect, how dare you teach the Dharma privately?" Wisps of mysterious light swayed, and the moonlight disappeared one by one like melting snow.

Xuanyun reacted quickly, and when Xuanyu made a move, the sword in his hand was inserted into the ground.Once again mobilized the moonlight to condense the essence of the moon soul to help Wei Qian watch the moon. "Senior sister, don't worry, this map of inviting the moon is something I obtained while traveling abroad, and it is not the secret of my mysterious spirit. Moreover, it is only for her to visualize once, whether she can enter the Tao or not is another matter."

This method of visualization is recorded in many Taoist scriptures. The first requirement is to adhere to Yuanyi and calm the mind and spirit.But where do mortals get such a pure mind?

It is best to practice Taoism from an early age, for the sake of the pure heart of a child.

"But her aptitude is good, I'm afraid she can really understand the meaning of the bright moon at once. It's just that her aptitude and disposition are different. If she goes on the wrong path in the future—" Xuanyu was displeased: "Have you forgotten what happened to Mrs. Ma back then?"

"Mr. Ma was greedy for money and secretly helped others in private activities, so he was expelled from the sect by the master. But junior sister, can Xuan Shu's temper be compared with that of Qian girl?" At this time, another Taoist nun came.This nun was the one who talked with Ling Wan during the day and wanted to make Wei Qian enter the Tao.

"Senior Sister Xuanyun." Xuanyun and Xuanyu bowed, only to hear Xuanyun say: "The left is just a way of thinking, even if Xuanyun doesn't teach her today, she can read it from the Taoist scriptures in the future."

"But at that time, she was thinking about it alone, and she might not be able to visualize the bright moon for two or three years. How can it compare with junior sister helping to enlighten the Dharma?" Xuanyu muttered, seeing Xuanyun's stern gaze, she could only say: "That's all, that's all , the senior sister has come forward, what kind of trouble do I have to do? Why do I need to be such a wicked person?"

After Xuanyun talked about Xuanyu, she also said to Xuanyun: "You are still young, and you don't know the secrets of our family. Back then, Master Lingwan once accepted a female disciple Ma Shi, whose Taoist name was Xuanshu. It's just that this horse Shi was only greedy for petty gains, and stayed in the back houses of those rich and powerful all the year round, helping those women to use their means to curse others and damage their virtues, and was expelled from the door by the master. For practitioners of my generation, this kind of heart is the most important thing .”

After hearing this, Xuanyun said: "Don't worry, senior sister. I have taught Qianmei the method of visualization. If she does evil in the future, I will kill her with a sword." .This little junior sister of mine has practiced Taoism since she was a child, and she doesn't know anything about the human heart, so she dares to speak like this.

However, Wei Qian was a little girl who hadn't entered the Tao yet, Xuan Yun and Xuan Yu didn't want her to ruin their friendship with Xuan Yun, so they were too lazy to care about it.

Xuanyu changed the topic and said to Xuanyun: "I haven't seen you for a few days, your swordsmanship seems to be more exquisite. You can actually incorporate the image of the bright moon into your swordsmanship."

"Incorporating the Taiyin visualization into swordsmanship, there is already an innate appearance." Xuanyun also boasted, and at this time Wei Qian visualized the bright moon in her mind, and a cool air flowed from the top of her head to her whole body, feeling deep and full. Open your eyes.

Seeing Xuanyu and Xuanyun coming, Wei Qian greeted them with a smile: "I have seen the two senior sisters."

Xuanyu didn't speak, Xuanyun rolled her eyes, went up to Wei Qian and told Wei Qian about the method of visualization. "Cultivating the Tao first cultivates the mind. Everyone in my sect has to visualize and determine the nature at the beginning of the practice. Only when the fire is over can we start to try the real method of Qi training. This picture of Taiyin visualization, you can practice it day and night, can exercise your spirit, Improve spiritual wisdom. When you feel the sense of energy, you will be considered as a Taoist. At that time, you can come to Dou Lao Temple to find the master to teach the law."

But just this one step of visualization is enough to stump most people.Xuanyu secretly said: The shortest is a few years, and the longest is decades. Wei Qian is just a child at heart. She can persist for a few days at first, but as time goes by, there are many loves between men and women. You may not be able to calm down and realize the Tao in your life.

Xuanyun instructed a few more taboos for visualization, and ordered Xuanyun to send Wei Qian back, while she took Xuanyu back to her room to rest.

In the early morning of the next day, Wei Qian and Jia Mei returned to Wei Mansion after having morning classes with a group of Taoist nuns.

Just at this time, Wei Qian's handkerchief friend came to look for her, and the sedan chair rushed to the same place.The bearers on both sides looked at each other, uncertain.

A crisp voice came from the small sedan chair: "Guests do as they please, and the elders are in front, why don't you quickly push them away?" Upon receiving orders from his own lady, the sedan chair of Wang's Mansion backed away first, letting the sedan chair of Wei's Mansion land on the ground.

As soon as Jia Mei's mother and daughter came out, they saw a neat woman in a big red dress jumping out of a small sedan chair not far away.

The woman hurriedly came to Jia Mei's mother and daughter, and said to Jia Mei, "My niece has seen my cousin."

This woman is the daughter of the Wang family, and the four major families are often married, so she is also related to Jia Mei.

Jia Mei looked at the woman and said with a smile: "So it's Feng girl, anyway, your little sister Qian has been depressed these days, you should stay with her well, and I will not bother you as a cousin." After finishing speaking, she took the second daughter Entering the mansion, the girl was handed over to Wei Qian for entertainment, and Jia Mei went to the old lady Wei in the backyard.

Mrs. Wei is sixty years old, and she has been in poor spirits these years, so she let go of things early.But this time the mistress and the head of the family made a big fuss, and the entire Wei Mansion lost its face. How can old Mrs. Wei sit still?

The old lady was lying on the bed, squinting her eyes: "Yan'er is indeed wrong about this matter, but you are too. You can't say it well, do you have to make it known to everyone? There are too many people in the house. If it gets out, Qian girl It will be beneficial? This marriage will be publicized, and then she will marry if she does not marry!"

Jia Mei lowered her head and said honestly, "Mother taught me that."

Seeing Jia Mei's expression, Mrs. Wei patted the bedside: "I know what you are worried about, don't worry, there is still something to say about this matter." Liupin, there are many rules! Just mess it up a little bit..." Seeing that Jia Mei seemed to be a little unclear, the old lady snorted softly, "You went to the temple yesterday, and you didn't think of showing the horoscope to Qian girl. ?”

Jia Mei's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized: "It's still mother's thoughtful thinking. That's right, it's just a verbal marriage contract. Don't talk about us. I don't know what sister Huang means."

"As long as they are willing, it will not be difficult to find someone to explain the horoscope properly." The old lady said calmly, "So why are you in a hurry! There are many things ahead, and you want to mess up the matter." The matter is very simple. But in order not to damage the reputation of our Wei Mansion, even if the husband and wife can't make it, it is still a good talk for him and them to marry Jinlan."

Jia Mei repeatedly expressed that she was taught, and discussed with the old lady for a while, seeing that the old lady was tired, she got up and left.

As soon as she left, the old lady coughed immediately.An old woman next to him hurriedly served tea.

Mrs. Wei sipped her lips, and said to the old man beside her, "What do you think?"

The old woman's face was wrinkled, she looked at Huang Yang beside her, and said with a smile: "The wife is still clever, and the young mistress is a bit impatient after all."

"She is also eager to love her daughter." Mrs. Wei nodded in satisfaction. Jia Mei's housekeeper is acceptable, but she still needs to make up her mind on these important matters. Feeling that she is honored in the backyard, she is quite satisfied. "Calculate the time, the Huang family is coming soon, please don't let anything happen to your young mistress. You also ask your family to watch outside."

The old woman around said yes again and again.This old woman is the son of Weifu family, her husband Huang Cheng has also been a slave in Weifu for many years, Huang Yang is their granddaughter.

"By the way, girl Huang Yang. I heard that girl Feng from the Wang family is here? You are a servant girl, and you don't hang around the lady all day long. What are you doing here?" Mrs. Wei looked worried when she saw the girl standing at the door.She seemed to have forgotten that it was Huang Yang who tipped off the news yesterday and let her know the news immediately.

When the old woman next to her heard the words, she immediately glared at her granddaughter, "Hurry up!"

Huang Yang was reprimanded by the two old men, his expression panicked, and he hurriedly prepared to go to Wei Qian's place, where was his calmness in front of Wei Qian.

"Wait!" Just as Huang Yang was about to leave, Mrs. Wei called her again, pointing to the dim sum on the table: "The dim sum from the north is good, but it's too hard. My teeth are not easy to use, you go and serve them Girl Qian and Girl Feng, let these young people try something new."

Huang Yang turned around quickly, holding the plate before going to look for Wei Qian.

After she left, Mrs. Wei shook her head: "Your granddaughter is good at everything, but she can't tell the priority."

"That's why I need my wife to teach me carefully." The old women around me are respectful and respectful. Huang Yang is young and can't hide things, but how can these old people not understand?

"Young girl Qian only took the red toon to offer incense yesterday, and deliberately left the boxwood in my yard. This is making trouble for me!" The old lady said to the old woman beside her: "Now I can still take care of one or two, but I will do it in the future , Qian girl is my own granddaughter!"

Huang Yang relied on being the son of Weifu's family. Although it is good to be loyal to Weifu, but if Wei Qian is neglected, the old lady will not be happy.After all, that is the granddaughter of the direct relative, who has been pampered for seven years, how can a little maidservant be neglected?

Of course, if he helped Wei Qian to deceive the old lady, there was no point in letting her go to Wei Qian's side in the first place, and the old lady didn't like it either.That's why I beat it deliberately, which is also a warning to the old people around me.

Having a child in a family is a child in a family, the primary and secondary must be clearly defined, this is the way of a family that has been passed down for a long time.

"I heard that your guy is setting up Zhuangzi outside?" The old lady asked suddenly, seemingly unintentionally.

The old woman was startled, and quickly said: "That's what the Patriarch meant, saying that it was an extra source of income for the mansion." How did this old lady know?Obviously, shopkeeper Yan only had contact with the master two days ago, so why did it reach the old lady's ears today?

"That's good. Huang Cheng can do things with peace of mind, and I can't do without your benefits." After asking, the old lady casually asked some internal affairs of the house, and then prepared to rest.

"So, this old lady is not easy to serve!" The old woman sighed secretly as she watched the old lady close her eyes and take a nap.Since the old lady married into Weifu, she has been with her for more than 40 years, and she has a clear understanding of the old lady's temper.The young maidservants around the old lady were constantly changing, but Huang Lushi was the only one left.

"It seems that if you want to buy some family property secretly, I'm afraid it won't work. It's better to hand over the Zhuangzi directly." Huang Lu thought about it, and temporarily dismissed his thoughts.

When Jia Mei left the backyard, her dull expression immediately changed: "The old lady is still not going to let go of power, no matter what, I will follow her for a few more years."

The confidant next to him asked in a low voice: "Madam, do we still need to invite the elder?" This confidant is Jia Mei's accompanying maid, and she is loyal.The so-called elder refers to Jia Amnesty.

Thinking of the old lady's attitude, although Jia Mei was assured that the old lady would not attack secretly, she thought about it carefully and said to her confidant: "I remember that my elder brother will go back to Jinling's hometown in a while, and I will invite him to come here as a guest." .”

Jia Mei is a concubine, she was not close to Shi Shi when she was at home, she was raised by her grandmother, and she has a good relationship with her eldest son, Jia She, who is also by her grandmother's side.Thinking of what was said in the letter a few days ago, Jia Mei said to her confidants: "I told you a few days ago, prepare it, and my brother may use it when the time comes."

Returning to the main courtyard, he ordered his servants: "Go and find Steward Huang." Just as he was speaking, a little old man with a hunchback hurried over: "Ma'am, the head grandma of Huang's residence is here."

"It's finally here." Jia Mei's eyes turned cold, thinking about her daughter's matter, she naturally had no good looks towards the Huang family.He only told Butler Huang: "You invite them in, and I'll be there soon."
