Dachang and the other three slaughtered pigs and sheep, and cleaned up chickens, ducks and fish. In just two or three days, they hung fresh meat and bacon all over the yard, salted chicken and duck.

The next day after the Kitchen God sacrifice, when Li Sangrou got up, the yard was already busy.

Dachang rolled up his sleeves high and slapped noodles from a large copper basin into another large copper basin.

Next to Dachang, the simple stove has been set up and burned.

The golden retriever sat on the squid and set the fire. The dark horse was pouring soybean oil into the large iron pot. The smell of beans was gone. He also added another bucket of sesame oil and finally a few pieces of lard.

This is the boss’s teaching, and the oil alone doesn’t taste good.

Li Sangrou went to the kitchen to get two meat buns, poured a cup of tea, stood in the corridor, ate and drank, and looked at the busy and happy three people with great interest.

It was during the Chinese New Year, to be precise, from the time I celebrated the stove to the New Year's Eve, Dachang was so busy that he didn't have time to cook for her, and the dark horse and the golden retriever were so busy that he didn't have time to pay attention to her.

Li Sangrou has no interest in the New Year, but the three people in front of her are excited about holding the New Year, as if they are alive just for the New Year!

Li Sangrou ate and drank slowly. She went into the house and took a cloak with indigo-faced wool-skinned cloak, put it on, and told the three of them: "I'll go to Kaibao Temple to give incense sticks, and I won't come back at noon. I won't eat these oily items for dinner, so I'll cook a pot of mutton and cabbage."

"Kai Baosi far away, boss, call a car." The golden retriever caught fire and stretched out his head and shouted.

"How can the boss not know how to call a taxi? You still need to say it? Boss, please wait!" The dark horse sat on a high stool, plucking the head of the oil pan, so busy that he could not even bother to turn his head.

Li Sangrou waved her hand, left the alley, walked half a street before she called a car.

This kind of inconvenience that it is difficult to even call a car, and the busyness of the streets are also one of the reasons why she doesn't like the New Year.

Why is it so uneasy when the Chinese New Year comes?

The coachman was also full of panic about the New Year. He hurriedly sent Li Sangrou to the foot of Yishan Mountain and rushed back in a hurry.

At this moment, Yishan is much quieter than usual. Kaibao Temple is in front of the Toutao Mountain Gate at the foot of the mountain, and there are almost no one.

Li Sangrou did not walk the wide stone steps in front of the main mountain gate, and walked around the foot of the mountain for half a circle, followed several porters, and climbed up the steps from a small path.

Kaibao Temple is halfway up the mountain, with bright yellow eaves flying around, enveloped by the floating blue smoke. The clear sound of bells and chimes break through the heavy chanting of scriptures and spread far and wide.

Li Sangrou stopped, listened carefully for a while, continued upwards, along the wall of Kaibao Temple, and towards the back door.

I heard that the Yongping Hou Mansion was performing a ritual for the second master of Shen Yun and Shen, and it seemed to be true.

The back door that entered and exited the debris in and out of Kaibao Temple opened with his hands.

Li Sangrou leaned into her head and looked at it. Seeing that there was no one around, she raised her foot into Kaibao Temple.

The layout of the temple is similar. When Li Sangrou passed by the back wall of the kitchen, she stood up and listened.

The kitchen is busy.

There are many monks in Kaibao Temple, and today there will be no fewer customers, at least there are many servants. This kitchen has to be busy from morning to night.

After passing the Sutra Library, Li Sangrou stood close to the corner of the wall, looked around, and walked behind the row of wings with wide eaves behind the side of the Yaowang Hall.

The flowers and plants in front of this row of wing rooms are covered with green flowers and pots of blooming red and green plums are even more elegant and unique, and are obviously carefully arranged.

In this way, it must be a place for the Shen family to rest.

There are no windows on the back wall of the wing room, and there are two high round windows on the left and right.

Li Sangrou looked up at the round window, and she just took a look at it casually, without even having to jump up so high.

After walking around, Li Sangrou was about to give up, but in front of the wing, there was a burst of rapid but unconfused footsteps, and the voice of an old lady came over: "Master! The princess is here, she has come in!"

Li Sangrou walked to the side of the wing room a few steps, leaning against the wall, and looked towards the front of the wing room through the leaves of a large pot of maple trees placed in the corner of the corridor.

In the wing room, a tall girl was first rushed out, wearing a filial piety dress.

This must be the bead on the palm of Yongping Hou, Shen Mingqing, the eldest lady of the Shen family.

The two little girls following Shen Mingqing were just getting older, with long legs and long arms, and were holding a girl of six or seven years old. Both of them were filial piety clothes.

These must be Chen Yun’s two daughters, the second wife Shen Mingrui, and the third wife Shen Mingying.

The three of them hurriedly welcomed them out. Not long after, the three of them walked slowly with a plain white girl and spoke in.

Li Sangrou looked at four people one by one.

Shen Mingqing, who was walking on the far right, had a flying eyebrows and eyes, which was quite open and honest. He was slightly tilting his head and listening to the girl next to him intently.

The girl in the middle is a medium-sized girl wearing a plain white silk-faced white fox cloak that grows to her feet. Her almond eyes are shining and her face is full of cuteness.

Li Sangrou glanced at her a few more times.

There was only one princess in the palace, the daughter of Queen Xianzhang, the eldest prince's legitimate sister, Princess Ninghe.

Queen Xianzhang probably didn’t have the appearance of her, and her innocent face was so cute and innocent. She couldn’t do anything like sitting in a chariot circle around Prince Rui’s mansion.

Ning and the princess held Shen Mingying in their hands. Seven-year-old Shen Mingying described her young age and could not see anything. Shen Mingrui next to Shen Mingying lowered her head slightly, revealing a trace of gloom.

Shen Mingqing suddenly looked at Li Sangrou's hiding place. Li Sangrou flashed behind the wall and quickly retreated along the wall.

No wonder Mr. Yongping loves this eldest lady Shen the most, and she is indeed keen and outstanding.

………………………………………

"What's wrong?" Shen Mingqing suddenly looked at the corner of the corridor, Ning and the princess stood on tiptoe and followed.

"It seems that someone is looking at us. You go and have a look." Shen Mingqing responded with a smile, turned around and ordered the woman who followed her.

"Where can anyone be there? It must have been cleaned up early." Ning and the princess laughed.

"Well, I've been a little restless lately." Shen Mingqing sighed.

"So too." Ning and the princess looked distressed, "I didn't tell me about my cousin's danger, and I only found out when my cousin came back.

My cousin had such a long wound on his back, and he said it was very deep. My cousin didn't let me see it, saying he was afraid of scaring me."

Ning and Princess only watched Shen Mingqing speak.

Shen Mingrui, who was walking on the other side, unbuttoned her head stiffly and pulled Shen Mingying hard. Shen Mingying glanced at her sister, lowered her head, and pulled her hand out of Princess Ning and Princess's hand a little bit.

"Mingrui takes my sister to listen to the scriptures first, I'll go there later." Shen Mingqing's eyes flashed from the corner of his eyes, and looked at Shen Mingrui and said.

Shen Mingrui nodded, pulled her sister, and stoked her knees and took a break from Ning and the princess, turning around to the hall.

"My cousin Mingqing, I haven't seen Mr. Wen for almost three months. I think he is hiding from me again, and he keeps hiding from me."

Seeing Shen Mingrui leading Shen Mingying out for about ten steps, Ning and the princess couldn't wait to complain to Shen Mingqing.

"There are a lot of things happening recently. Isn't it Mr. Wen who is in danger to investigate your cousin? He must be very busy." Shen Mingqing comforted him tactfully.

“Now isn’t the truth revealed now?

Alas, look at me, I am always so ignorant. I should go to the hall to bring incense sticks to my uncle of the Shen family first, and my elder brother also told me to bring incense sticks to him.

By the way, my elder brother said he wasn't here, so he asked me to tell you something, and told you to accompany you for more than two and three, saying that they were young and pitiful."
