Chapter 2362 Entertaining
the Ayu Square Master, the Hua Family, the Xuan Family, the Zhou Family, and others were thinking about the little girl dotting the eyes and hanging a plaque on the stone lion at the gate of the paradise on the morning of the 1st. They did not copy books in the evening, so they all meditated and rested early.
A group of monks meditated all night and ended their meditation at around four in the morning. They took turns washing and tidying up, and then sat and waited.
The monks got up early, and Classmate Le got up even earlier. She got up at three o'clock, went to the kitchen to steam rice and medicinal food, and went to open the door at nearly five o'clock.
The monks heard that the little girl opened the gate of the east courtyard and left the west courtyard. Everyone in the Yin Palace went to the east courtyard and the others went to the gate first.
Headmaster Li led his disciples into the east courtyard. He and Mr. Yi moved the tables from Sansi Hall and placed them from the hanging flower door and the main gate of the east courtyard to the east gate of the paradise. Then he went into the kitchen to pick up the sacrificial supplies and went to the east courtyard first. Worship at the door.
August 1st is also the 15th day of the 6th lunar month, which is an auspicious day for marriages, sacrifices, etc.
Classmate Le Xiao took his younger brother to open the door of the east gate in person, then picked up the door plaque wrapped in red silk that was placed in the doorway area yesterday and walked out of the door.
Young Master Yan carried the ladder and placed it at the door.
Le Yun personally hung the plaque on the lintel, and then installed the couplets on the two south-facing doorposts outside the gate tower.
After hanging up the plaques and couplets, I took a water bowl filled with morning dew, and used small bunches of willow branches, peach branches, pine branches, and three-color tree branches to pour water into the eyes of the two stone lions at the gate, and then put it on the feet of the stone lions. Tie a piece of red silk.
Then the offerings are presented, incense is burned, and wine is toasted.
Classmates from Le Xiao, who were wearing auspicious clothes, recited the sacrificial prayers, paid homage, then used gold paint to paint the eyes of the stone lions, and then pulled back the red cloth covering the plaque and couplets.
The plaque at the east gate is a large Chilong plaque with golden nanmu inlaid with red gold and inscribed ink characters. The word "Paradise" is written horizontally with Pinyin written on it. The plaque is surrounded by nine golden dragons. Between the characters and the frame is the auspicious symbol composed of talismans and seals. Moiré.
The couplets are made of dark iron and inlaid with red gold characters. There are red gold copper hoops on the upper and lower ends, which are directly hooped on the pillars and fixed with buckles.
The couplet is a long couplet. The first couplet: The sky is vast and the earth is vast, allowing all things in the world to prosper; the second couplet: The sun shines brightly and the moon shines, shining the beautiful scenery of China's mountains and rivers.
When the monks who were waiting to watch saw the plaque unveiled, they felt the word "Paradise" shining with golden light, which was breathtaking. When the red silk of the couplet was unveiled, they felt like seeing mountains and rivers, and a powerful momentum rushed towards their faces.
When people stand outside the east gate, they feel that the gate is solemn, majestic, and inviolable.
The little girl's hanging of a plaque made the gate's momentum rise several steps. The ancient cultivators sighed with emotion, and when the little girl spilled the sacrificial wine on the ground, they helped pack away the belongings.
Everyone drove to the entrance of the east courtyard gate, waiting to watch the little girl hanging the plaque.
The young people from the Guanyin Hall returned the three sacrificed animals and fresh fruits, and replaced them with a new offering.
Le Tong still hung the huge plaque on the door of the main entrance, and then washed the eyes of the stone lion guarding the door and the unicorn beast carved on the door, then offered sacrifices, and dotted the eyes of the stone lion and unicorn beast.
The stone lion and the unicorn divine beast nodded their eyes and took off the silk cloth.
Hanging on the main entrance of the east courtyard is a large red sandalwood plaque inlaid with gold, with four shining golden characters written across it: "嫏嬛福地". The size of the plaque is more than twice the size of the one in the west courtyard. The pattern composed of talismans and seals looks like The appearance is plain and simple, but the surface has its own light.
The plaque on the east gate of the paradise has an invincible and unstoppable spirit, while the plaque on the main entrance of the east courtyard has a restrained atmosphere. Only when you look at the plaque can you feel the majestic righteousness that makes people dare not look directly.
Monks: "..." Don't ask them why, they don't understand why a plaque can make people feel different.
Light the eyes on the gatekeeper at the gate of the east courtyard, and then light the eyes on the gatekeeper at the Hanging Flower Gate, as well as the stone lions at the left, right, and back doors of the second entrance to the courtyard.
After the sacrificial ceremony in the east courtyard was completed, we went to the west courtyard. Le Xiao's classmate took off the plaque that said "Blessed Land of the Children" that had been hanging in the west courtyard and changed it to the plaque of "The Academy of the Children".
After that, the side door of the backyard of the academy lit the eyes of the gatekeeper beast, and then changed the offerings, and went to the back door in the northeast corner of the paradise to offer sacrifices and dot the eyes of the gatekeeper stone lion. A piece with the word "Paradise" engraved on the back door in the northeast corner of the paradise was also hung. A two-character red gold plaque.
After the sacrificial ceremony in the main courtyard is completed, the guest courtyard begins. From the gate inward, first hang a plaque and dot the eyes of the beast on the main door of the guest courtyard, and then hang a plaque and dot the eyes of the gatekeeper beast in each courtyard.
The guest courtyard is named "Four Seasons Courtyard". The front courtyard has three crabapples left by the previous owner, so it is named "Begonia" courtyard.
There are seven upper rooms in a row in Haitang Courtyard, three in the east and west, five in the east and west, and three in the north and in the south. In the outer courtyard, there is a row of inverted rooms against the south wall.
Behind Haitang Courtyard and to the northwest is the second courtyard, which has a water lily pond and rockery left by the previous owner. It is called "Hanlian Pavilion". There is a distance of more than seven meters between the two courtyards. "Hanlian Pavilion" and "Hanlian Pavilion" The central axis of "Begonia Courtyard" is also not on the same straight line.
The courtyard to the northwest of the guest house is called "Lanxiang Jingshe". The courtyard is mainly planted with orchids. The yard where the old house of a certain son-in-law named Jiang used to be was the only third courtyard. Several plum blossoms were planted, named "Plum Blossom Small House". build".
There are five upper rooms in Hanlian Hall, Lanxiang Jingshe and Meihua Xiaozhu, and there are three rooms in the east wing each. The main room and the wing room are both equipped with wing rooms. Each wing room has one light and two dark rooms. The dark room is about 2.6 meters wide, and the bright room is about 2.6 meters wide. The room is about three meters wide.
The gatekeeper of the guest courtyard also nodded his eyes. The disciples of the Guanyin Temple carried the sacrificial supplies and followed the master through the moon gate back to the paradise. Together they entered the second courtyard of the "Blessed Land of Concubines".
The ancient cultivators followed the kind-hearted leader Li and Mr. Yi into the Langhuan Hall and took their seats. The disciple in charge of tea in the Guanyin Hall first served tea and then took the tableware to set the table.
Several disciples from the Guanyin Hall went into the kitchen to help, and helped Miss Le unpack the vegetables from the large steamer, put them into saucers, and then carry them to the central hall of the upper room.
Young Master Yan, Young Master Liu, and Brother Fu were responsible for loading the rice into wooden barrels and carrying it into Langhuan Hall.
After a little busy work, all the dishes were served.
The dishes are rich, with nine dishes and one soup, and only one of them, bean jade tofu, is vegetarian. The other eight dishes and one soup are all meat dishes, and the soup is still milk and sheep stomach soup.
After the dishes were served, the disciples of Guanyin Hall served wine, each with a jar of wine in a bamboo tube.
The monks did not need the Guanyin disciples who were serving as waiters to open the wine jars. Instead, they opened the mud seals themselves. When the aroma of wine escaped, the refreshing aroma of wine filled with bits of bamboo leaves and morning breath filled the room.
Ayufang master smelled the aroma of wine, and his two strokes were brighter than lanterns. He smacked his lips and asked excitedly: "Little girl, do you have any houses to build? Tell me quickly, I will rest for a few days and bring you another house." People go to work."
"No." Le Yun was extremely speechless. Needless to say, Senior Ayu wanted to take over the project just for the sake of drinking!
"How come there isn't? Your medicinal garden in southern Xinjiang is so wide. Why don't you build a few houses, a warehouse for collecting medicinal materials, and a platform for drying medicinal materials?" "No, I basically collect and use them now
. The storage is also transported directly back to the paradise."
"..." Master Ayubo lowered his head in disappointment.
Yi Lao Yan Lao and others laughed.
"Mr. Hao, when your project is completed, it will be difficult to deceive the little girl into buying good wine." "
Mr. Hao, it will take a year or two for the little girl to complete the southern Xinjiang project. You can go to the construction site to help with part-time work and exchange your work for it. Wine."
"..."
The monks joked while pouring wine. Head Li, who was sitting at the same table with Master Ayu, filled it first for Master Ayu.
The disciples of Guanyin Hall presented wine and took their seats with Yan Shao and Liu Shaocai. They sat at the table closest to the door.
Head Li and the heads of each family sat at the main table, while Leshan sat with his senior brothers.
Mr. Le also sat at the head table, waited for everyone at each table to pour their wine, and stood up with wine glasses in their hands: "For Mr. Le's sake, you have come all the way here, putting down your family affairs. You are not afraid of the severe cold and heat, and work day and night. I have been working hard for more than two years, and I am deeply grateful. I will only thank you with a glass of wine. I will not get drunk with you all in the evening. I will do it first as a token of respect. You can do whatever you want!" The little girl held the golden bell small wine bowl and put it in
. A glass of wine was consumed in one gulp.
"It's done!" The little girl said proudly, and all the family members stood up, picked up their wine glasses and drank down the wine in one gulp.
The young monks naturally followed the lead of the old horses and had a drink with them.
Bamboo tube wine is medicinal wine. After a glass of it, your throat will feel burning at first, and then the strong fragrance will spray out of your mouth, and the sweet feeling will reach your heart.
The monks felt that the Qi in their Dantian became active.
The little girl said "please have a seat", everyone sat down, filled up their wine glasses, and began to drink, sipping and taking the medicinal food at the same time, it was wonderful.
The big wolf dog arrived at the little sister's courtyard. He was very well-behaved. When the little sister had something to do, he would play with the little milk baby and never cause trouble. When everyone was eating, he also went to grab his own rice bowl. He originally followed the little milk baby, so he thought it was OK. The little sister can't move anymore, so she runs and sits next to the little sister.
Because there were guests, Le Yun did not feed the black dragon first, nor did she give him the medicinal food on the table. She only gave him bones to eat.
The monks chatted slowly while eating, and it took a full forty minutes to finish breakfast.
The disciples of Guanyin Hall helped clear the tables and then moved the dishes to the kitchen for cleaning.
The monks finished their breakfast and scattered around. Some went to the backyard, some went to the front yard, and practiced freely under the eaves of the corridor. Some meditated on the beauty bench in the colonnade of the upper room or the east wing of the second courtyard.
Mr. Yi and other family heads went to the little girl's Jiutangtang or study room.
Classmate Le Xiao left medicinal food for Heilong, fed him food, and took his younger brother to the small island in the middle of the large artificial lake to teach swordsmanship.
Young Master Yan, Young Master Liu and Brother Fu helped wash the dishes and ran back to Young Master Yan's room to do their work.
Classmate Le taught his younger brother how to practice swordsmanship for two hours, rested for a while, and then took his younger brother to hang plaques on the pavilions and pavilions in the garden.
The large artificial lake in the northeast corner is called "Yinyue Lake", the three-story pavilion on the island in the center of the lake is called "Guanlan Pavilion", the stone boat on the bank is called "Sanqingfang", and the open hall pavilion on the north side of the lake is called "Guanlan Pavilion". Tongxinxuan", the water pavilion on the east bank of the lake is called "Listening to the Wind and Watching the Tide", and the pavilion connected to the promenade on the south bank of the lake is called "Water and Sky One Color".
On the east side of the ring canal, there is a pavilion running across the canal, with traffic in the middle and fences on both sides. It is a pavilion that integrates waterside pavilions, corridors and pavilions. It is called "Zuigui".
There are two small pavilions that have not been named yet. The small artificial lake in the southeast corner is called "Huangyu Pond", and the pavilion on the east bank of the lake is named "Cuiwei".
There is also a plaque hanging in the middle hall of the upper room in the backyard of Lehuan Academy, named "Jiuya Hall", the east hall is called "Songmao Hall", and the west hall is called "Sanle Hall".
As soon as you enter the east courtyard, there are "Sanli" in the east hall and "Sanjie" in the west hall. The middle hall on the first floor of the back building has a plaque named "Chunhui Hall". To the west is a concert hall named "Changyin Pavilion" and to the east is a drinking hall. The place for tea leisure is called "Youran Zhai".
There are also some engraved plaques that are placed in the Baibao Pavilion. They can be hung up whenever the occasion strikes.
After hanging the plaque, Xiao Le's classmate tidied up Luke's room on the west side of Zhaixingju. He collected several pieces of gold and bronze and replaced them with porcelain.
After Luke finished his final exam, he signed up for a summer study class and worked hard to make up classes at school. The first period of make-up classes will not end until the 4th.
In April, classmate Le told Luke that she would let him free up time during the holidays and that she would teach him some self-defense techniques. Therefore, Luke only signed up for one cycle of make-up classes. If he had not been told in advance, he would have had to arrange his summer vacation. Got to be full.
A naughty child who doesn't like to study is a headache, and a child who loves to study too much is also a headache. Sometimes Le Xiaoxiao is really worried that Luke will be pushed too hard by himself, which will backfire and cause him to develop a learning disorder.
After finishing her business, the little Loli took her younger brother to the island of Yinyue Lake and supervised his younger brother's practice of Qinggong swordsmanship.
The young man in charge of the kitchen among the ancient cultivators practiced until nearly noon and cooked in Wuwei Tower. The monks had lunch and then returned to the Kuihuan Paradise to practice.
Classmate Le soaked bamboo rice and fragrant rice in the afternoon. In the middle of the afternoon, she steamed the rice, braised lamb in stone pots, stewed pig trotters in earthen pots, and cooked fish head soup. She also used a large pot to stew camel meat, and used a large steamer to steam pork and plums with rice flour. Vegetables, pork belly and other dishes.
Yanxing Liu Xiangyang and Brother Fu helped little Lolita in the afternoon, peeling eggs, cutting tofu for serving, cutting braised pork, making platters, etc.
Towards evening, Le Xiao's classmates steamed seafood.
The disciples of the Guanyin Hall practiced till evening and then went to work. They first placed the bowls and chopsticks in the central hall, opened the wine jars and put them in wine jugs, placed them on each table, put them away, and then went to the kitchen to help.
When the sun went down, the monks entered the Langhuan Hall and took their seats one by one.
At the beginning of dusk, all kinds of delicacies are brought into Langhuan Hall like flowing water. Twelve dishes are served first. In order to facilitate the presentation, a "round tower-style" tripod is placed on each table, and several dishes are also placed on the shelf. There is room on the table for bowls and wine glasses.
Classmate Le didn’t talk nonsense anymore and acted first as a courtesy.
The host drank a drink, and the monks happily drank with him. They sat down to enjoy the dinner. The wine provided by the little girl was another kind of medicinal wine, which is specially designed to treat dark wounds and nourish the body. It has a higher concentration than the wine at noon and tastes slightly spicy. Being sweet makes people more likely to drink too much.
Both Master Ayu and Mr. Yi were good drinkers, so they drank freely without any limit. Even the young people who were not good drinkers also ate with pride.
Since he was the host and he had promised that everyone would not return until they were drunk, Mr. Le Xiao also "risked" going out at night and drank one cup after another with the monks.
The little girl used to drink tea instead of wine, but this time she sacrificed her life to accompany the gentleman. The monks such as the head of the Xuan family and the head of the Ayu family were deeply moved. Instead, they repeatedly advised her not to force herself if she was not good at drinking, lest drinking too much would affect her sense of smell and taste. , they don’t need her to accompany them.
The elders cherished each other, and Leyun also understood. The host followed the guests' wishes, and after drinking twelve glasses of wine, he replaced the wine with tea.
The host was hospitable and generous, and the monks treated him warmly. They relaxed their body and mind and ate and drank happily.
Before the first round of dishes was finished, the monks were a little tipsy.
Forty minutes later, the second round of dishes was served. It was still twelve dishes. The first round of dishes was mainly seafood, and the second round was all the finale dishes, including braised mutton, camel meat, braised beef, bamboo tube chicken, Braised rabbit with clay, squirrel and mandarin fish...
the second round of dishes was served, and the monks enthusiastically cooked wine and talked about heroes, talking and drinking as much as they wanted.
The aroma of wine was strong, the monks were heroic, and the atmosphere was particularly joyful.
Seeing everyone getting drunker and drunker, Le Yun's heart couldn't bear it. It wasn't because she felt bad about the wine, but because she was afraid that the monks wouldn't be able to get up tomorrow!
The young disciples of the Guanyin Hall only drank three to five glasses of wine before continuing. They had work to do and had to stay awake.
Young Master Liu had a good capacity for drinking, but after drinking about a kilogram and a half, he couldn't hold it anymore, so he went back to rest with Brother Fu, who was also drunk.
Yan Xing has a good drinker, and he sacrifices his life to accompany the gentleman.
After Leshan finished eating, he took a shower and went to Jiudetang to practice calligraphy.
About an hour and a half into the meal, ten of the 50-pound wine jars were empty. Except for a few young disciples from the Guanyin Hall, all the other younger monks were also drunk!
The young men of Guanyin Hall "helped" all the lying young monks into the colonnade, letting them sleep on the beauty bench or lie on the ground.
Yan Xing also drank until his cheeks turned red. He was still very clear-headed. He was afraid that he would do something stupid if he drank more and became dizzy, so he ran away.
The elders of the families were good drinkers, but they only lasted about half an hour longer than the young people, and they were all knocked down.
The loudest Ayubo master was the last to lie down. When he lay down, it also heralded the end of the meal.
"What?"
"It's strange, Elder Yi has such a good drinking capacity, why is he drunk?"
"Oh my god, the drinking capacity of the monks of the Guxiu family has become so bad?"
The younger generation was wiped out, and even the whole army was wiped out. None of the elders were awake. The young people in Guanyin Hall were stunned and almost doubted their life.
"It's considered a good drinker to last until now. This kind of wine is most effective when combined with medicinal food." Le Yun smiled and said: "Mr. Yi and Senior Ayu have been shouting about getting drunk every day, so they should be satisfied now. ."
"Little junior sister/little girl, be careful that senior will wake up tomorrow and chase you for drinks every day." The young people couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't worry, they won't be able to get up tomorrow, so there is no need to prepare their meals during the day tomorrow. Let's move them all out first. After everyone packs up, we go to Jiudetang. We also take a few sips of wine before practicing, so that we can settle down peacefully."
"Okay."
The young people in the Guanyin Hall agreed happily and hurriedly "helped people". They also treated all the elders equally and moved them to the colonnade and arranged them in rows like garlic.
After moving people away, clearing the table, some people washed the dishes, a few people wiped the table, swept the floor, finished the work, picked up two jugs of wine, and went to Jiudetang together.
Leshan watched the senior brothers and nephews arrive and continued to write. When he noticed that they were drinking, he observed curiously that a group of senior brothers and nephews took a few sips of wine and soon sat upright and meditated.
The brothers and nephews who were meditating were quiet and their postures were like statues.
Leshan blinked his eyes, extremely surprised.
Classmate Le Xiao tidied up the ingredients in the kitchen, went to take a shower, and dried her hair in the yard before returning to Jiude Hall. Seeing all the young people in Guanyin Hall entering meditation, she gently hugged her brother and his books and stationery Go back to the bedroom.
Leshan grinned, returned to his sister's bedroom, copied two more texts, and went to bed early.
