“???”
The girls in this city do whatever they want. They change too quickly, don't they?
A few younger wives were still in shock, while the older elders, with solemn expressions on their faces, took the incense from Qiao Qiao's hands, solemnly inserted it into the incense burner on the table, and knelt down devoutly to the statue in the hall.
"Please bless Qingshan Zhenjun!"
"Lord Qingshan, please bless my entire family with health and happiness!"
“…”
They prayed devoutly and performed their movements meticulously.
The younger wives felt a little ashamed when they saw this.
When praying to gods and Buddhas, how can you think about money?
vulgar.
Look at them, how pious they are!
No wonder others can find ginseng, but they can’t!
They looked at each other, and very embarrassedly lined up behind the crowd and began to burn incense to their ancestor, Qingshan Zhenjun.
After burning incense, the young wives saw the old men and women with smiles on their faces, and they immediately surrounded Qiao Qiao.
With their palms facing upward, they confidently said, "The incense is on, but where's the money?"
Young wives: "..."
hehe.
They slapped themselves in the face, looked at each other, and lined up behind the crowd again.
Qiao Qiao gave each person one thousand yuan.
But when they got the money, they didn't have time to be happy.
“Crash—”
Those old men and women who had just smiled warmly, donated the money back with even warmer smiles, saying that they wanted to accumulate merit for themselves and to buy incense money for the Taoist temple.
Young wives: "..."
The young wives are unwilling and reluctant, but they are too young and of low generation. They are either the wives or daughters of these uncles and aunts, or their granddaughters and nieces. How can they really be the masters of the family?
In short, when they finally went down the mountain, they returned the same way they came.
Not a penny more.
Some of them endured it silently, while others were still indignant. "We agreed to pay for burning incense. We have already burned incense, why should we pay her back?"
"I already said that it was for Zhenjun, not for Xiao Qiao."
"Isn't it all the same?"
"Of course it's different!"
An old lady got so anxious that she slapped her daughter on the head.
"That Taoist temple did collapse eighteen years ago. You saw it when you were a kid."
"But now, it's up again. Can it be an ordinary Taoist temple?"
"I see you're obsessed with money, and you don't have any reverence at all."
My daughter was told what she was thinking, but she was still a little dissatisfied.
"Why fear Him? There is no benefit in it."
"That's what they said on TV. Those are all feudal superstitions!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Erya, who had gone down the mountain with them, seemed to have thought of something and spoke with the red envelope in hand.
"By the way, Sister Xiao Qiao just told me that yesterday's agency fee was a joke."
"She's a monk and can't take money from the villagers. If you want your money back, please come to my house and register your names."
"If you don't want it, just do what she did. Take out the money and build a road for our village."
Everyone: “…”
Building roads has been the dream of several generations!
It is indeed the True Lord Qingshan, a true spirit!
They became more pious in their hearts.
After coming down the mountain with a look of awe on their faces, they met their son, daughter, and daughter-in-law who were only willing to come back from the city during the Chinese New Year.
"Ah, Master Qingshan is truly powerful! Even the children have returned!"
The old men and women were even happier.
The children were so happy that they jumped for joy and listened carefully. Sure enough, they heard the news that the family was going to kill a chicken.
"I'll catch it, I'll catch it!"
They were rubbing their hands in anticipation, their mouths watering, when they heard their parents say, "Now that we have money, we plan to buy an apartment in the city."
"Mom, what do you think?"
The corners of my grandparents' mouths drooped slightly, but it was still within the tolerable range.
They nodded silently.
"It costs a lot of money to buy a house. I heard that in addition to the money given by others, the city girl also collected a lot of agency fees. How about we go there today and get the money back?"
"hehe."
The children didn't say anything and silently put down the chickens in their hands.
After thinking about it, they sighed like little adults, and spontaneously helped their grandparents to take out the teaching stick hidden behind the door.
"You want money?"
"How dare you?!"
Grandpa and grandma's faces changed.
Grandpa and grandma picked up the sticks.
Grandpa and grandma raised the sticks...
The children skillfully took out a few candies from their parents' pockets, sat on the doorstep and ate them while listening to the sound of their father being beaten inside, their little faces full of wisdom.
If you want to be rich, build roads first.
Even though they are children, they all know that building roads is a good thing.
As my grandparents get older and their legs and feet become less flexible, they look forward to such good things more and more.
Now, not only do you not let your parents pay, but you also ask them to return the money for road construction?
Doesn’t that mean he deserves a beating?
"Oh, what a sin!"
Thinking of this, the little kids imitated the sighs of the grandparents next door when they were beaten in the past, and felt that the candy in their mouths became even sweeter!
*
Qiao Qiao was touched when he learned that no one in the village took the money back.
——Great, she can sleep another night with this money!
Thinking of this, Qiao Qiao reluctantly touched a handful of RMB in the bamboo basket again.
