    On the third day of the Lantern Festival, Chen Yue was woken up from bed by his mother Qiu Yun early in the morning.

    The Lantern Festival Lantern Festival in the Song Dynasty lasted for five days. Even if there were not two large-scale cultural gatherings like the first night to set off the gorgeous atmosphere, there would still be various colorful performances and various small-scale literary gatherings in the following four days.  During the party, various colored lanterns will still shine brightly in the daytime at night, and the liveliness and prosperity will not diminish slightly.

    After a day of dissemination and digestion, Chen Yue's "The Sapphire Case" composed on the night of the Lantern Festival has spread at a much faster speed than usual with the intensive crowds of performances during the festival, coupled with Cheng Bolun's aggressive behavior of "kicking the hall" at the West Lake Cultural Association.  It has become the most common topic of conversation in the streets. Poetry, the most popular art of this era, coupled with the gossip and anecdotes that the masses love to hear, it is probably difficult not to become famous.

    While Chen Yue's name quickly came into people's sight, Cheng Li, Chen Yu, and even Zheng An, Tang Yuhu, and Zhang Yuzhi who were affected by the former were also used as sharp contrasts.

    Questions about Chen Yue will naturally follow, but he has not gone out at home these two days, and the doubts from outside have not affected him yet.  At yesterday's family dinner, everyone in the family had doubts about him. As soon as he tested calligraphy, Chen Yue pushed back with talk about ghosts and gods. It was difficult to ask what he said next. As for how many people really believed it?  He can't control it anymore.

    Chen Yue reluctantly got up and finished washing, Qiu Yun came over again: "Come with me to Donghua Temple to offer incense today." Looking around, he saw Xian'er carrying the washbasin and walking out, and asked again  : "Shangwen, tell me, tell your mother, did you write the poem the day before yesterday? At first I just thought it was good, but in the past two days, I heard your father say that there is no comparable Lantern Festival poem written in Hangzhou.  ,How can this be?"

    Chen Yue wiped the water stains on his face and scratched his head with a headache.

    "I was taught by someone in my dream. I heard him recite a few songs and then I memorized it."

    Xian'er came back after pouring the water. When she heard what she said, she thought it was difficult for the young master to say that the lyrics were written for her. For a moment, her cheeks felt slightly hot, and she stood aside with her head lowered and blushing.

    Qiu Yun saw that he was still saying the same thing, so she gave him a surprise. She didn't know whether to believe it or not, and didn't want to get to the bottom of it at this time, so she urged: "Hurry up and tidy up your clothes. After breakfast, you can go."  I¡¯m going to Donghua Temple.¡±

    Chen Yue touched his painful forehead, said "oh", picked up the pasta that had been brought to the table and started eating.

    There were many kinds of staple food in the Song Dynasty. In addition to meals, there were also pasta, wontons, rice noodles, and side dishes, including various cakes, various steamed buns, steamed buns, etc., and various kinds of porridge.  According to Volumes 2 and 3 of "Tokyo Menghua Lu", Volume 16 of "Mengliang Lu", Volume 6 of "Old Martial Arts", Volume 8 of "Supplementary Martial Arts", there are hundreds of kinds of materials.

    The Yujie Pu shop gets up at the sound of the bell (about the fourth watch) and sells morning market snacks.  It can be seen from here that people in the Song Dynasty got up early. In the morning, there was a morning market, and buyers and sellers became active at the fourth watch. The snacks in the morning market were sold by those selling sesame cakes, steamed cakes, glutinous rice cakes, ice cream and other snacks to catch up early.  Market, until just before dinner. In terms of eating habits, they need to eat at least three meals, and if they have to work at night, they will also have a midnight snack.

    In fact, after being here for so long, Chen Yue is still not used to the food of this era. Especially some of the pasta he made earlier has not been fermented as maturely as in later generations, and it tastes a little weird. But now he can't care about this and is careless.  After taking a few bites, he and Qiu Yun went out.

    Donghua Temple is not too far away, but it took a lot of time due to the bustling crowds during the Lantern Festival. It took an hour for Qiu Yun to arrive at the temple gate with Chen Yue and the two maids.

    The bustle of the Lantern Festival has also brought a lot of popularity to Donghua Temple. Through the door, which is more than one foot wide, you can already see the crowds inside. Several young novice monks running back and forth inside can hardly cope with it. The crowd in front of the door  The incense cauldron was densely packed with incense sticks of different sizes, and there was a bright red candle under the candlestick. It was unknown how many incense candles were burned.

    Chen Yue frowned and really didn¡¯t want to join in the fun, so he was dragged into the temple gate by his mother and walked towards the main hall.

    A nearby Zhike monk happened to come out of the backyard, glanced at the crowd, and immediately came up to them when he saw them.

    "I don't know whether the donors are asking for signatures or returning their wishes?"

    Chen Yue was slightly surprised. He turned around and saw that he had a handsome face, bright eyes, and a courteous but not flattering manner. He was a natural at finding out among so many people that his group was rich and had the potential to be taken advantage of.  Material for doing business.

    Today, my mother is taking the lead. Her dress and demeanor are naturally a little different from those of ordinary wealthy families. It can be seen that there is money to be made here. The difficulty is that she can tell it at a glance among so many people, and in the future  He didn't seem humble or silent when asking questions, and the question was still "how many people are there?""One" instead of "two", including the two maids behind him, which reflects the meaning of "all beings are equal" and will not be regarded as too powerful by officials.

    Chen Yue had no doubt that if he received a wealthy businessman covered in jewelry, he would immediately pretend to be his grandson to cater to the guest's preferences.

    However, in his previous life, Chen Yue also worked hard in the shopping mall for a long time. He was able to see through and understand this kind of person. Instead of being disgusted, he admired this kind of person very much.

    Qiu Yun didn¡¯t know that so much information was filtered in Chen Yue¡¯s head in an instant, but she just said to the guest monk: ¡°First offer incense to Guanyin Bodhisattva in front, and then go to Manjushri Bodhisattva in the side hall.¡±

    The monk Zhike smiled and clasped his hands together, and then made a "please" gesture: "The young monk's name is Faguang. Please come with me." After saying that, he turned around and took a few people in to burn incense. There was no way he could make a detour.  , but it can often lead people to move forward to a place with fewer tourists.

    After offering incense to Guanyin in the main hall, Qiu Yun took out ten guan of money to donate as sesame oil money in the side hall.

    Ten guan of money can almost buy ten shi of grain at this time, which is by no means small. Although there are wealthy businessmen who donate dozens or hundreds of guan of money and goods at a time on weekdays, these are all agreed upon in advance and are enough.  The Zhike monk Faguang took the box handed over by the maid and handed it to the young novice monk nearby. The expression on his face still maintained the previous smile and was calm. Chen Yue couldn't help but look at him more highly.  .

    The little novice monk next to him was quite excited when he took the money. He came over and thanked Faguang together. When he saw Chen Yue, his eyes lit up and he stared at him and said, "Hey, this is not the one that Brother Faguang rescued a few days ago."  Young Master?"
