Chapter 929: Erecting the Jinshi Monument (1)
Sun Shan took Yun Jie'er and Xiao Feimei to wander around the city, and also took Yun Jie'er and Xiao Feimei to climb Guanyin Mountain.
When he revisited the place more than ten years later, Sun Shan found that he still could not see any Guanyin on Guanyin Mountain.
It seems that there are some things that we didn't have when we were children, and we still don't have them when we grow up.
When the abbot of Guanyinshan Temple saw the arrival of Huangyang County's number one "boss", he immediately ran over and served him attentively.
Sun Shan found it funny that the host used to greet Mr. Hong and Mr. Huang warmly, but now he was the one being greeted warmly.
Although the host has changed, the working style remains the same.
Sun Shan originally wanted to quietly appreciate the beautiful scenery of Guanyin Mountain and had no intention of entering the temple.
Unfortunately, as soon as he arrived, he was caught by the host, and I seriously suspected that there were spies nearby.
Since they were already here, and the host spoke so nicely, especially praising the little fat girl, Sun Shan and Yun Jie'er were so happy that they donated money unconsciously.
After leaving the temple, I suddenly realized that I had been possessed.
It seems that everyone loves rainbow butts, and Sun Shan is no exception.
Sister Yun looked at Sun Shan's tangled expression with amusement, and said soothingly, "Brother Shan, just think of it as accumulating merits for Xiaoxiao. I hope that our Xiaoxiao is a blessed person as the temple says."
Sun Shan looked at the little fat girl with rolling eyes and said with a smile, "Sister Yun, you are right. Just consider it as a blessing for Xiaoxiao."
The temple abbot praised the little girl Xiaoxiao for her full forehead which hid her wisdom and her eyes which were as bright as torches. She said that she would grow up to be a graceful lady with both talent and beauty and would marry a man of her dreams. She would be a blessed person.
Sun Shan could not bear such praise. He couldn't help but take money out of his pocket and put it in the merit box.
Gui Ge'er said with a smile: "Master is worthy of being a master. He is so good at praising people that he can even take money out of Brother Shan's pocket. Haha, what a skill."
Sun Shan: ...
He glared at Gui Ge'er.
What does this mean? Does it mean that he is stingy? Even if it is true, it is enough to know it secretly, why say it out loud?
Gui Ge'er shrank his head, turned around holding the little fat girl, and dared not say a word.
Sun Shan got even angrier when he saw this, especially when the fat little girl was grinning and giggling in his arms.
Yun Jie'er couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
Gui Ge'er was right. It took some skill to make Shan Ge spend money.
I thought to myself that I would come again next time to listen more of the master’s praise for the little fat girl.
Mothers all like others to praise their children.
Sun Shan led a group of people slowly down the mountain, and then entered the Hong family's residence to eat and drink.
It would be a waste if he didn't take advantage of the teacher's food, especially since his wife sent someone to call his family of three to dinner every day.
It was hard to refuse such a kind offer, so Sun Shan had no nerve to reject it.
The only regret is that the little fat girl still refuses to let the teacher's wife hug her, which makes the teacher's wife love and hate her at the same time, and she can't help but gently pat the little fat girl's chubby butt.
As for Hong Xiucai, his experience was the same as Sun Shan's. Whenever he got close to her, the little fat girl would burst into tears.
Moreover, the sound was so penetrating that the neighbors thought something big had happened in the Hong family.
After Sun Shan and Yun Jie'er finished their meal, they hurriedly ran away with the little fat girl in their arms.
What a difficult little girl! Sun Shan has given up on treating her.
After returning to Sunjia Village, two days later, it was the day to hold the Jinshi banquet and establish honors.
Early in the morning, Sun Shan was dressed in new clothes.
Led by the village chief and a group of clan elders, they first went to the ancestral hall to worship, and then moved to the Wild Boar Hill to worship.
It had been several days since Sun Shan came back, but this was the first time he came to Wild Boar Hill.
I discovered that there was actually a small temple here, and the deity enshrined there was Doctor Sun.
Sun Bomin explained, "Since you passed the imperial examination, the villagers have come here to burn incense every year and festival. After you went to Beijing to take the exam, I specially asked fortune teller Yang to come and take a look. He said that we could build a temple here so that your grandfather can receive incense from all directions, so that your grandfather can cultivate and become an immortal."
So Yang the fortune teller chose a good day, Sun Boming paid for the materials and meals, and led the villagers to work for free, and it took less than two days to build the Sun Gong Temple.
After that, during festivals, the villagers would come here to burn incense and worship Mr. Sun.
Sun Shan agreed and said, "Father, let's build a temple for Grandpa so that he can enjoy the incense of Sunjia Village. Grandpa will definitely bless our Sun family to prosper."
The village chief stroked his beard, nodded and said, "Shanzi said it well. You were born here without any danger, grew up safely, and passed the imperial examination. You must have been blessed by your grandfather. Your grandfather was a kind and benevolent man during his lifetime. After his death, he must have ascended to heaven and is blessing our Sun family's descendants. He is building a temple for your grandfather so that he can have a place to practice."
Everyone in the village believed that Doctor Sun had become an immortal. If he was an immortal, he must have infinite magical powers.
Everyone come and pay your respects so that Doctor Sun can bless you.
Sun Shan held to the principle of "it is better to believe it exists than not to believe it exists", so he did what everyone else did.
After paying homage to Sun Gong Temple, Sun Shan and his party returned to the ancestral hall again.
All the young and old in Sunjia Village have gathered beside the ancestral hall.
Yang the fortune teller picked the right time and asked everyone to get ready and start construction as soon as the auspicious time arrived.
The village chief looked around and saw that in addition to the villagers of Sunjia Village, there were also densely packed circles of people from other villages.
He nodded with satisfaction: The more people who come, the better, so that they can see the Jinshi monument in Sunjia Village.
The Sun family also invited village heads and respected people from all over the area.
Zheng Tongsheng sat high up in the head seat, and one could tell the size of the meal at a glance.
The village chief came out and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, today is the day when the monument of Sun Shan, a scholar from our Sunjia Village, is erected. Thank you for taking the time to come to Sunjia Village."
Everyone listened to the village chief quietly. The whole scene was so quiet and solemn that even the little kids didn't dare to say a word.
After the village chief finished speaking, he asked Sun Boming to come forward and say a few words.
It was the first time Sun Boming saw so many people, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.
He spoke in pauses, very nervous: "Everyone, thank you for coming here. Today is the day when my son will be enthroned as a Jinshi. Thank you for your kindness."
Sun Shan looked at Sun Boming worriedly, wondering if he would faint from stage fright if he continued.
Uncle Sun San was waiting for the eldest brother to step down and let him speak. The eldest brother's speech was too low standard, which damaged Shanzi's image.
After waiting for a long time, Sun Boming finally finished speaking, and everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Because of the dimensionality reduction attack of strength, no matter how unfluently or unsmoothly Sun Bomin spoke, no one dared to laugh or boo.
Su glared at Sun Boming silently. It would be better not to say anything. It would be disrespectful to her.
Like father, like son, Su strongly disagrees with this saying.
Her son Shanzi is much better than the head of the family.
Fortunately, Shanzi is like himself. If he was like the head of the family, he would definitely not pass the imperial examination and become a high-ranking official.
The golden morning sunlight sprinkled on the earth and on Sun Shan.
Su looked at Sun Shan's golden glow and loved him even more.
As expected of her, she is so dazzling among the crowd.
