Chapter 377
Ji Wanrou edited the message and quickly replied to Jin Chaochao.
[Chao Chao, I had been thinking about participating in charity activities before. Now that you've said that, do you have any good ideas? We are not outsiders. As long as we do good things, I am willing to join you. 】
Jin Chaochao saw the reply and said to Yan's mother, "Let's get ready tomorrow morning. I want to find an auspicious day to open the orphanage."
Yan's mother replied crisply, "Okay! Tomorrow morning, take a bath, change clothes, burn incense and pray to the heavens, and pray that our charity work will go smoothly."
"Yes!" Jin Chaochao and Yan's mother have a tacit understanding.
Mother Yan came out of Jin Chaochao's yard and found Wu Qing. "You will assist the young lady in doing things in the future. Learning more skills will only benefit you. From now on, you will get up at six o'clock every day and follow me. I will teach you everything I can."
"Okay! Thank you, Mom Yan. I will definitely study hard." Wu Qing was very happy.
It is not easy for a demon to practice cultivation, and it is even more difficult to meet a kind person.
Mother Yan has been following Jin Chaochao, and her cultivation has increased dramatically. It is very likely that she will gain great enlightenment from Jin Chaochao.
If she could take over her job, even if she couldn't gain enlightenment from Jin Chaochao, she would still be able to get opportunities from the descendants of Xuanmen.
She must seize this opportunity.
Wu Ming also explained to her in detail the interests involved.
The brother and sister were lucky enough to have this opportunity because of Jin Chaochao's kindness, who gave them a chance to reform.
They should also repay her well and do their best in their work.
…
The next day, Jin Chaochao got up and started to get busy.
Take a shower, change clothes, and then dress up.
Offering sacrifices to heaven is a very solemn ceremony, so the clothes and jewelry worn must be solemn.
Yan's mother chose a full set of emerald jewelry for Jin Chaochao, which she matched with a dark green cheongsam with heavy jacquard pattern. All her hair was tied up into a very formal bun, which was embellished with an emerald hairpin.
Emeralds are priceless jewels, and the value of a set is immeasurable.
Necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings...with these majestic and calm colors, anyone who wears this outfit will look different.
The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is performed in the courtyard outside the ancestral hall.
In addition to the prepared altar, Yan's mother also called all the servants and craftsmen in the house.
As early as yesterday, Yan's mother taught everyone how to follow the heaven sacrifice.
If nothing else, offering sacrifices to heaven is a good opportunity to make a wish.
As long as you are not a wicked person and your wish is not unrealistic or fanciful, it will come true 100%.
Therefore, all the servants in the house gathered together, lined up neatly, and waited for Jin Chaochao to arrive.
It was almost ten o'clock.
Jin Chaochao and Yan Ma appeared in the yard.
The servants present all greeted her in unison, "Hello, Madam!"
Jin Chaochao nodded to everyone and said, "Just follow me and do it. Whether your wish will come true or not depends on your sincerity."
The servants all smiled happily, but their attitudes became serious.
Huo Zheng, Bo Ling... Ou Zilin and others also put on neat suits and stood by, waiting quietly.
The tall altar was filled with offerings, grains, whole poultry, flowers, incense towers, gold ingots, etc.
Jin Chaochao walked to the altar and looked at the tablet in the center of the altar. It was dedicated to Emperor **.
Yan's mother handed the lit incense to Jin Chaochao, "The time has come, Miss, please pay respect to the heavens."
The weather is very good today, the sun is shining brightly, and the whole Fu Mansion is filled with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
Jin Chaochao stood in the first place, followed by the housekeeper assistant headed by Yan Ma, Huo Zheng and others, and then the servants in the house.
Jin Chaochao looked at the altar, then raised the incense above his head with both hands and muttered something.
"The descendant of Xuanmen, Jin Chaochao, is offering sacrifices to the heavens again today. Since the Happy Orphanage has been built, I pray to the heavens for an auspicious day to ensure that the children in the orphanage can truly be happy."
She bent down to burn incense, kneeled three times and kowtowed nine times, with sincere courtesy.
Wait for her to complete the ritual and insert the incense into the incense burner.
At Yan Ma's command, everyone lit the incense tower and burned gold ingots. Suddenly, the whole ancestral hall was filled with a strong aroma of incense.
Jin Chaochao took out the tortoise shell for divination, and the hexagram showed good luck.
She looked up at the tablet on the altar, on which the specific time had already appeared.
Jin Chaochao wrote down the time, then she looked at Yan's mother and said, "Let them line up to burn incense. Making a wish during the worship is the most effective."
"Okay!" Yan's mother and Wu Qing were busy organizing others to burn incense.
Jin Chaochao left the altar and entered the ancestral hall.
The grandmother floated in the air and clapped happily, "My granddaughter is really amazing. She is dressed very formally today. Her outfit is a display of her strength."
"Grandma, you are still treating me like a child!" Jin Chaochao smiled.
"Grandma is telling the truth. We are people of the Xuanmen. The more wealth we have, the more powerful we are. In other words, the greater the blessings and merits, the more wealth we can support," explained grandma.
Jin Chaochao was puzzled, "How can I explain this even though I lived in such poverty before and still had many merits?"
"The most important thing is your fate." Grandma thought for a moment and continued, "Also, saving an ordinary person is different from saving a person with merit. Merit can only be accumulated faster if you are lucky. For example, Leng Yu, you met him and happened to help him, and you gained countless merits and blessings. He is upright in his heart and has done meritorious things, which will double your merits."
"For example, last time you went out for free medical treatment, you saved a lot of patients. The merits that each of them can add to you are fixed and cannot be doubled. These people may be kind, but they will never have great merits in their lifetime."
Jin Chaochao nodded, "So saving Qin Zhengnan was also due to good luck, which allowed me to complete my merits and enjoy great blessings now."
"Yes! People like Qin Zhengnan and Leng Yu are hard to come by, but saving people from danger and accumulating merits is the foundation. Don't put the cart before the horse."
"I understand!" Jin Chaochao smiled sweetly at her grandma.
"The orphanage will open in two months. Starting tomorrow, we have to recruit staff and management personnel. We also have to install equipment and furniture, train teachers, and other trivial matters. By then, I may be busy for a long time."
"You have Ah Yan at home, she will take good care of things for you. And I am here, I can help you make decisions when you encounter problems, just go ahead and do it!"
"Great! It's really great to have you by my side, grandma." Jin Chaochao smiled happily.
The old lady's face was full of doting, "Grandma is also happy to have such an outstanding granddaughter like you."
*
After Jin Chaochao finished offering sacrifices to heaven, he sent a message to Ji Wanrou.
She told her everything about the orphanage.
Finally, he asked her, "If you can spare some time, take Qingze with you and we can live there for a month."
A month is enough time for them to make all the preparations.
Ji Wanrou thought for a moment, then gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay! I'm taking care of the child at home anyway. With you, I can get the work done and take care of the child, and Qingze will be happy too. It's the best of all worlds. I'll talk to my family and come find you later."
