Marriage of the Di Daughter

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Jiang Li in a daze.

He knew these two little girls from a few years ago. He heard that the lady from a rich family made a mistake and was sent to this nunnery. Just looking at the two people's clothes, it is really hard to believe that they come from a rich family. The maid is more lively, but the young lady gets angry at every turn. It is the first time that the salesman Zhang hurried away every time he finished selling. Seeing Jiang Li talking to him so kindly.

Speaking like this, with a gentle and gentle appearance, she really looks like a lady from a big family, but the lady of the chief assistant's family, which is too exaggerated.

Although there are doubts, but the salesman Zhang still has to rush to the other end. He thought that Jiang Li was joking and would not really spend all the money on pastries. After all, the life of the master and the servant here can be seen It can be seen that they are not rich, and it is no problem for an ordinary wealthy family to spend forty strings of copper coins to buy pastries, but for two children who can't even wear warm clothes, it is not very reasonable.

"You buy so many cakes, if you can't finish them, they will be ruined." Shopkeeper Zhang couldn't help reminding.

"It's okay," Jiang Li said, "I'll finish eating."

Having said that, Mr. Zhang didn’t say anything more. The copper plate was someone else’s copper plate. Jiang Li bought almost half of the cakes in his burden. He could go down the mountain early and go home as soon as possible, so he was too happy. What is there to worry about?

On the other hand, Tong'er, although puzzled by Jiang Li's words, has probably never disobeyed Jiang Li's orders, so he had to suppress his anxiety, and when he returned with a large drawer of pastries, the nun in gray who passed by would look at her from time to time. She, Tong'er was afraid that they would come to snatch it, so she hugged the cake even tighter.

After returning to the damp room, Tong'er put the basket of cakes on the table, closed the door, and finally couldn't help asking: "Why did the girl buy so many... this?"

Jiang Li didn't look at her, she opened the window, and the window was facing the rolling hills of Qingcheng Mountain, the beautiful peaks were undulating, the snow in winter had long since melted, and the peach blossoms all over the mountains and plains dyed the usually chilling peaks with a layer of pink haze, Like a gentle beauty.

"Look." She pointed to the distance for Tong'er to see.

Tong'er came closer and saw a palm-sized curly-tailed monkey squatting on a peach tree in the distance, happily nibbling a fruit.

"It's a monkey." Tong'er was puzzled, "What's there for a monkey to see?"

There are a lot of monkeys on Qingcheng Mountain, and they are also mischievous on weekdays. The monkeys here get along well with people, especially at the Helin Temple. Due to the constant stream of pilgrims on weekdays, sometimes when they see these monkeys squatting on the trees and playing, they will throw some peanut candies. In winter, when food is scarce, the monkeys beg for food from pilgrims more frequently. In spring and summer, when there is no shortage of food, the monkeys don’t bother the pilgrims and play alone.

However, like the nunnery, monkeys seldom come here because it is deserted in the first place—where there is no food, there is always no fun to attract.

"Go get some cakes." Jiang Li said.

Tong'er went to fetch a few pieces of walnut cake as promised.

Jiangli broke the walnut cake into small pieces and waved at the monkey on the tree from a distance. Perhaps the cakes from the shopkeeper Zhang’s house were really sweet, and the aroma of walnuts quickly attracted the little curly-tailed monkey. He ran down to the window, staring vigilantly at the walnut cake in Jiang Li's hand, eager to try and dared not go forward.

Jiangli stretched out her hand again, the monkey finally couldn't bear the temptation of the walnut cake, stretched out its paw to touch a piece, turned around and ran, ran to the side of the stone and finished eating the cake with its back to Jiangli, then turned to look at it Jiang Li, seeing Jiang Li standing in front of the window with a smile on her face, holding some broken cakes in her hands, became more courageous, and went back to find Jiang Li to get something to eat.

Back and forth, after the monkey touched the food in Jiang Li's hand, Jiang Li clapped her hands at the bold capuchin monkey, indicating that she had nothing left. The monkey reluctantly looked at Jiang Li's palm for a while, then left with its tail up.

Tong'er, who has been witnessing all the process, asked: "The girl wants to feed the monkeys? Why do you feed them with cakes? It's better to use wild fruits picked from the mountains. The cakes are expensive and not worth it."

Not to mention the personal maid of the first assistant's family lady, even Jiang Li or Xue Fangfei, the personal maid who was by her side when she was a girl in Tongxiang, would definitely not feel sorry for a few cakes. If others see this scene, I don't know how much Sigh. Jiang Li reached out and touched Tong'er's head, and said with a smile: "But monkeys like delicious food more than wild fruits."

Tong'er wanted to say something, but Jiang Li turned around and walked to the table to sit down. There was only one stool in the room, and it was made by Tong Er himself from the wood he picked up from outside. The legs of the stool were not stable. Jiang Li said: "Tong Er, from tomorrow onwards, you will feed these cakes to the monkeys."

Tong'er's eyes widened: "Girl, why is this? The servant doesn't understand."

If people can't get enough to eat, why don't they care about monkeys? What's the point?

"I want these monkeys to do one thing for me," Jiang Li smiled, "Take these cakes as road money."

"But……"

"It's just a few pastries," Jiang Li interrupted her, "When you get back, let the small kitchen make them for you every day, don't worry about these."

Tong'er was silent. Speaking of returning to Beijing, Jiang Li was probably more sad than her. Tong'er didn't dare to say anything that would make Jiang Li sad.

"These cakes," Jiang Li reached out and knocked on the basket drawer. The smell of cakes filled the room. The master and servant could only eat porridge and pickles every day. The aroma had long made people hungry. Jiang Li suppressed her hunger, and said: "Divide these cakes into 15 parts, and feed these monkeys a portion every day until the nineteenth day, and there is no need to feed them on the nineteenth day."

Tong'er was puzzled, but still agreed: "Slaves don't have to."

"It's half an hour away from Helin Temple," Jiang Li said, "I can't go out of the gate of the nunnery every day, so I have to go. You go out every day at Haishi, and feed the monkeys with these cakes in the forest behind Helin Temple , until the 19th, and on the night of the 19th, you don’t have to go.”

I don't know if Master Jing'an got someone's instruction too, Jiang Li can't leave the door of the nunnery, she can only stay in the nunnery every day, and her every move is watched by others. But Tong'er can move around, because she still has to go to the mountain to chop firewood during the day, Tong'er has stayed on the mountain for six years, and the road of Qingcheng Mountain is very familiar, so she won't get lost.

And Qingcheng Mountain often has noble ladies from the house to offer incense. To ensure safety, there are not many bandits in the mountain, which is very safe. Otherwise, Jiang Li will be worried if Tong'er goes out at night.

After listening to Jiang Li's instructions, Tong'er suddenly asked: "Girl doing this, are you planning to return to Beijing?"

Jiang Li looked at her and smiled: "Are you scared?"

Hearing this, Tong'er not only wasn't afraid, but instead changed into an expression of eagerness to try. The little girl was very courageous, and she was willing to do it for some reason. She rubbed her fists and said, "Don't be afraid! This servant has long wanted to do this!"

"Very good." Jiang Li nodded, "Let's start tonight."

Do you think Ali is a warm girl╭（╯^╰）╮
