Chapter 155: Fate is Destined
Winter goes and spring comes, and it is the time of the year to burn incense.
A horse-drawn carriage was traveling on the way to Shangguo Temple to burn incense. Zhang, who had grown into a beautiful young woman, was sitting in the carriage, holding a sachet she had sewn by hand.
The maids and old women were talking outside the carriage, but the woman in the carriage seemed not to hear them.
He simply took out a sugar-filled pancake from the food box he brought with him, cut it in half, kept half for himself, and handed the other half to the mouth of the snow fox beside him.
Zhang’s third dream.
Young Zhang Fuqing couldn't remember when a snow-white fox that was not afraid of people and didn't bite anyone appeared by her side.
Everyone in the mansion, from the master to the servants, seemed not to be surprised by the existence of the snow fox.
I only know that the snow fox seems to be always by the third young lady's side.
Zhang Fuqing didn't even know that she had to bring it with her when she went to the temple to pray for her deceased mother.
What's more, I don't understand why she is only willing to share a sugar-filled pancake with it.
Tu Huan finally tasted what the sugar-filled sesame seed bun tasted like!
The system timidly reminded: [Host, there is no sense of taste in dreams.]
Tu Huan: "Back off, what do you know? This is the atmosphere we want."
There are three sticks of incense in front of the Buddha.
Zhang knelt down and kowtowed three times.
Bow your head to show respect to heaven and ancestors.
Bow twice and worship Buddha sincerely.
Kowtow three times and pray for your mother.
The famous temple on the top of the mountain is bustling with people.
Tu Huan walked beside Zhang with small square steps, folded her hands together (put her hands together), and kowtowed three times respectfully in front of the Buddha.
In Zhang's dream, she completed the experience she had always wanted to try in the form of a fox.
A master passed by Zhang, glanced at her side, and said with a compassionate smile: "This donor, you have a special fate in your life."
Zhang stood up and clasped her hands together: "Amitabha."
"Amitabha." The master replied with a smile.
Zhang's brows were filled with worry, and the monk in the temple took a green fruit from the altar and gave it to her.
Zhang was flattered.
Tu Huan took a look and came forward, shaking her fox tail.
The master smiled and gave her another one. "Meeting you in the Pure Land is also my fate."
Tu Huan took a bite of the green fruit in front of the Buddha and thought to herself: I don’t understand.
Snap!
The system sound rang in my ears:
[Congratulations to the host, you have collected a wisdom thought. Energy +300, Points +100]
Tu Huan was stunned with the green fruit in her mouth!!!
Is this even possible?!
The system was so happy that Tu Huan felt like fireworks were going off in her head...
In spring, peach blossoms bloom, and the mountains behind Shangguo Temple are quiet and peaceful.
Many tourists go up the mountain to burn incense, tour the mountains and enjoy the flowers during this time. Ladies, young ladies, celebrities, scholars and candidates taking the imperial examinations come in an endless stream.
Tu Huan followed Zhang along the path behind the mountain and found a secluded and quiet place to sit.
She found that no matter what the maids and old women around her said, Zhang's expression was always the same, as if she treated it all as bullshit.
Zhang shared the sugar-filled sesame cake with her and even explained in her presence how to make the soft-filled sesame cake.
Tu Huan felt a little sad about the little bit of energy that the system had to spend on copying the recipe.
Isn't she... following the recipe?
A man and a fox accompany each other, forming a unique community in the peach blossom forest.
In the distance, there were a few people traveling together. As they got closer, their conversation could be heard.
Tu Huan finished eating half of the pancake and looked up, only to find that Zhang seemed to have stopped eating the pancake, with a quarter of the pancake lying at her fingertips.
A heavy sigh.
Zhang lowered her head and saw the remaining cake in her hand. She raised her eyes and looked to her side. A snow-white fox was staring at her with bright eyes.
"I didn't expect you were still here."
Zhang woke up from her dream? Tu Huan was surprised!
A hand gently stroked her head, and Tu Huan couldn't help but tilt her head back and close her eyes comfortably.
sky--
So comfortable.
Behind him, a teasing voice came:
"Brother Gao, I heard that your marriage to Su Bofu is about to be finalized? When is the wedding date?"
"Brother Gao is studying hard day and night, preparing for the spring imperial examination. How can he care about love affairs? Right, Brother Gao?" Other companions teased with a smile.
"This doesn't delay either! A small graduation followed by a major one, how wonderful!"
"Brothers, please don't make fun of me." The man called Brother Gao said leisurely while visiting the garden.
"The Su Bo Mansion is currently enjoying the emperor's favor. The Lord must have a high opinion of Brother Gao, otherwise why would he betroth his second daughter to Brother Gao?"
"Brother Gao is extremely talented. He will definitely be the top scorer in this spring exam!"
One can hear young people praising each other all the time.
Tu Huan turned her head and looked behind her, really wanting to see how handsome the male protagonist who was almost praised to the sky by everyone was.
Suddenly, someone raised a question: "I'm completely confused by what you're saying. Are you bullying me because I just returned from abroad? Isn't the person Brother Gao is betrothed to Zhang Fuqing, the legitimate daughter of Marquis Zhang of the Boyuan Marquisate? How did she become the legitimate daughter of the Subo Marquisate?"
Tu Huan was stunned.
Zhang Fuqing.
A fox head looked back and forth between Zhang beside him and Brother Gao in the distance.
Is that man Zhang’s fiancé?
Hearing this, the man said in a slightly cold voice, "Brother Bai, please stop talking nonsense."
"Ah? Did I remember it wrong?" Brother Bai said awkwardly.
Someone who knew the situation laughed slyly and said, "Poor Brother Bai, he went back to his hometown with his father to mourn for three years, and there's no news since he came back."
"Brother Gao has long since broken off his engagement with Miss Zhang, the childless lady from Marquis Boyuan's mansion."
"Ah?!" This time Brother Bai exclaimed even louder.
Tu Huan's heart trembled.
The body next to him trembled slightly.
But soon, a sneer came out from Zhang's lips.
The voices over there continued.
"Why can't Miss Zhang have children?"
"Why else could it be? I heard it was because he played around in the snow and got hurt, and that's what caused this illness."
"Well, my mother told me that Lady Boyuan even sought medical help from the imperial physician in order to treat this young lady, but it was of no use."
Tu Huan heard Zhang's fiancé say coldly, "It's the Marquis' Mansion that's breaking off the engagement. What does this have to do with the Gao Mansion?"
"That's right. If Miss Zhang is unable to have children, Brother Gao will not be able to marry her."
"Let alone the Gao family, even for a small family like you and me, marrying a woman and not being able to carry on the family line is unacceptable."
"In that case, it is the Marquis' Mansion that has let down your Gao family. Coincidentally, Brother Gao can be said to have turned a disaster into a blessing. He lost his little sweetheart, but gained the golden phoenix."
"Hahaha! It's just like good fortune always comes to those who are lucky."
A series of wild laughter.
Tu Huan was afraid that Zhang would feel uncomfortable, so she raised her paw and placed it on Zhang's wrist.
Unexpectedly, Zhang grabbed her fox paw.
"fine."
As if she could feel the snow fox's comfort to her, Zhang's face showed little emotion.
Tu Huan felt a little distressed. She had probably heard such words too many times.
After thinking about it, Tu Huan stood up and turned around, wanting to add some "tiny ingredients" to these.
Unexpectedly, a calm and hoarse voice sounded at the right time.
"A bunch of self-proclaimed noble young men, I thought you were gathering here to discuss history and present times, but I didn't expect you to use foul language to slander the reputation of a young lady behind her back. Such a beautiful and beautiful occasion has been ruined by you fame-seeking people."
