Chapter 259: The relationship continues .
The sky is bright, and the soft light shines on the plaque above the Niangniang Temple, as if it can illuminate the golden light.
The Niangniang Temple is located in the west of Wuyang City. It is not as prosperous as the commercial market, but it is crowded with tourists during festivals.
Especially on the day of the temple fair, it is bustling with people.
The sound of Buddha is lingering, and the sound of bells is far away.
The bluestone slabs under the towering ancient trees at the entrance are polished to a bright shine, without any moss, which shows that the incense is strong.
The Zhu family father and son led the selected children away to change them into clean and tidy clothes.
The housekeeper stayed to comfort those who were not selected.
The reputation of the Niangniang Temple has been growing over the years, and half of it is due to the Zhu family. Because of this, many people from other places will rush here.
Knowing that the number of places is limited every year and most of them will be empty, there are still people who complain about not being selected.
"I should have known I would not have come. My family is busy with spring ploughing. It took two days to get the carriage here. If I hadn't hoped that my grandson would have some blessings, why would I have come all the way here?"
"The Zhu family is really something. Why don't you just not choose? If you want to choose, why not choose a few more? The temple is not too crowded. In my opinion, why not let all the children go in?"
Soon, many people responded.
"Who said it's not? I heard that the Zhu family is the most charitable. Why don't we be flexible?"
"I think it's better to replace the seriously ill child who was just chosen. My nephew is smart. If he is protected by the Niangniang Temple again, he will do good deeds like the Zhu family in the future. That child is different. Even if he lives a few more months, what contribution can he make?"
Soon, the people of Wuyang City looked down on him.
"That's not right. The Zhu family owes you money? If you have the ability, you can also hold a temple fair yourself. The Zhu family is willing to choose two people to take advantage of them, which is already their kindness. There are so many children and the gods are very busy. If you have to protect them all, how can you protect them all?"
The premise of the Zhu family holding a temple fair is to protect Mr. Zhu. With more people, the blessings that fall on Mr. Zhu will be divided more.
Not to mention that the Zhu family is not happy, even they can't bear to see the Zhu family suffer.
"Some people don't have face. Think everyone owes you."
"What do you mean your nephew is smart? Pah, so that child should die? You can say such words. If your nephew is really capable, he can make a name for himself. But that's a life!"
There was a lot of quarreling for a while.
The housekeeper of the Zhu Mansion stood up at this time, looking anxious to persuade them to stop quarreling.
"Harmony brings wealth, everyone, stop quarreling, it's not good to disturb the peace of the gods in the Niangniang Temple."
As soon as these words came out, the crowd really quieted down.
The housekeeper acted as a peacemaker: "It was our master's decision to select two boys after repeated consideration. The old lady in the mansion loves the young master the most, and she originally did not allow it. If we add more people, it will be inconvenient."
At this point, he changed the subject.
"Come here to worship Guanyin and burn incense. But the master also sympathizes with the inconvenience of bringing children from afar, and specially instructed me to give each person some travel expenses, which is also a little thought from the Zhu family."
As he said, he raised his hand.
The Zhu family's maids came out with rice dumplings and candies and shared them with the children.
The boys who were not selected happily ate the candies that were only available during festivals.
Those who got the money no longer had a bad word to say about the Zhu family.
Yu Tingwan didn't pay attention to that side anymore, but he was not deaf.
He had to sigh inwardly at the Zhu family's ability to win people's hearts.
What about this person.
Writing bad on the face is far inferior to those wolves who smile at people with hypocritical faces.
If it were any other newlywed couple, they would have been embarrassed by what the Taoist said just now.
But Yu Tingwan and Wei Zhao didn't.
Yu Tingwan felt that after they had a real relationship, no one would know better than her whether Wei Zhao could have children.
Wei Zhao was a person who would not change his expression even when facing a mountain collapse.
Besides, this was the fact.
The Taoist flipped the gossip coins again.
He saw two marriage lines between Wei Zhao and Yu Tingwan.
One was deep, and the other was shallow.
The shallow one gradually darkened at a speed that could not be seen by the naked eye, while the deep one emitted light.
This was...
they were separated in the last life, but
they were reunited in this life.
The Taoist counted again with his fingers: "The moon is bright after the clouds have parted. Your marriage was destined long ago."
He paused and looked at Wei Zhao. According to his own calculations, he said truthfully: "This journey is full of dangers, but it is more tortuous and the ghosts encountered on the way are more difficult, and the result will be good."
Wei Zhao slightly raised his eyelids.
Those people in the palace are indeed ghosts, and he was not wrong.
Taoist: "You almost died once before the New Year."
He was surprised: "Now you are living well."
Taoist: "You met a noble person."
Wei Zhao agreed in a low voice: "Indeed, it is a noble person."
Yu Tingwan sat up straight.
Taoist glanced over: "It's not your turn yet, don't worry."
"No hurry."
Yu Tingwan, who didn't care about false reputation, cleared his throat: "You mentioned me."
Taoist:...
Okay.
"Young Master is destined to be rich and noble. He will never lack such vulgar things as gold and silver."
Unlike him, since the Taoist priest traveled, the Taoist temple has no incense and can't be opened. But people have to eat, and it is really stretched.
Taoist priest: "And he has a lot of skills. He will probably do something big in the future."
Yu Tingwan: ...
Then Wei Zhao's actions are terrible.
After all, he wants to rebel.
Finally, it's her turn.
Yu Tingwan is very serious.
"Can I..."
The word "get rich" was not said.
Taoist priest: "I have suffered a lot in these years, and my life will get better and better in the future. Taoist friend, you can see that there are many people holding money for you to spend."
He didn't look at Yu Tingwan's birth date again, but casually covered it with the inkstone next to him.
"This should not be the birth date of Taoist friend."
Yu Tingwan sat up straight and slumped a little.
She frowned and pursed her lips.
When Yu's parents picked her up, they probably thought that day was her birthday.
"If I didn't remember or write it wrong, why don't I help you calculate your life experience?"
Yu Tingwan: "No need."
Taoist: "No charge."
Yu Tingwan: "I... know."
The Taoist was surprised, but he was very tactful and didn't ask.
At this moment, Yu Tingwan heard someone talking behind him.
It was two women holding hands.
The woman with the basket was older: "You have only been married for half a month, why are you in such a hurry? Why do you have to come and burn incense?"
"My mother-in-law is urging me, saying that there are not many children in the family, only my husband. Sister-in-law, my burden is always heavier."
"Your mother-in-law is a rogue. Why doesn't she say that she wants to give your husband a brother? She is afraid that you will delay your husband's study and ruin the imperial examination, so she doesn't let you have sex, and now she turns around and urges you again? No matter how powerful the temple is, if there is no man in the bed, how can your belly grow?" The
sister-in-law became more and more angry.
She has no parents-in-law above her, and her husband has only a younger sister.
She got married early and loved her sister-in-law as a half-daughter.
The young woman whispered, "What can I do? Most mothers-in-law in this world are picky. I can listen to them less if I go out for a walk."
Good news in chapter 254,
bad news in the small black room, a lot of changes, no longer so picky.
Readers on QQ, please note that there are no chapter duplications, because a chapter was blocked before, and the system directly replaced chapter 254 with chapter 255, and 256 replaced 255. And so on.
