Reborn Dijiao

Chapter 15 Sign Paper
Although Bai Yanran still didn't believe what she said, she didn't ask any more questions and sat beside her silently.

After the two were silent for a while, they sent new tea knowingly.

Bai Yanran took the teacup and thanked her. After taking a sip of the hot tea, her eyes rested on Ye Qingwan. She found a topic and said, "Why haven't you seen you wear this dress before?" She realized her impolite words, and smiled embarrassedly: "It looks much better than before."

Ye Qingwan glanced at the rustic clothes in the half-opened cabinet with disdain and said, "It's still passable."

In the past, Nanny Wang was in charge of her dressing and tailoring.

Nanny Wang said that the little girl should dress brightly, and the white dress and red dress Mrs. Ye gave her is not suitable for her, and the style is also a bit old.So those dresses Mrs. Ye carefully bought for her were put in the cabinet to collect dust, and they were never worn once.

At that time, she trusted the nanny very much, and never had any doubts about her words, until she went to the academy and heard Bai Yanran tell her that the students said in private that she was dressed like a beautiful peacock, which blinded her for nothing. that face.

She was so angry that she immediately ran back to the mansion to ask Nanny Wang to question the matter, and Nanny Wang coaxed her around, saying that it was because they didn't appreciate it, and Ye Ningxue also said the same thing to her when she came back, She completely believed what Nanny Wang said.

Looking back now, it was stupid and ridiculous.

"By the way." Bai Yanran said again: "Isn't there a new temple built in the west of the city not long ago, I heard that there is also a marriage tree there, and people say that tree is very spiritual, why don't we go and see it later. "

Ye Qingwan shook her head in disapproval: "It's all just lies."

Bai Yanran bit her bright red lips, raised her eyes, which were stained with layers of mist, and a rather obvious sense of disappointment flashed across her face, she was very fond of Lianren.

It has to be said that Bai Yanran's trick of pretending to be wronged and pitiful is really killing both men and women, even if she, Ye Qingwan, was also defeated: "Then I'll go and pray for the safety of my parents and brothers."

———
After tidying up, the four of them were ready to set off, but just as they left the Luoqing Courtyard, they saw a fat figure swaggering over from not far away.

"Miss, Miss Bai, where are you going so early?" Mrs. Wang asked warmly, rubbing her palms with a smile on her face.

Bai Yanran opened her mouth and was about to answer Nanny Wang's words, but she was stopped by Ye Qingwan who was beside her, she raised her eyebrows and didn't give the man any good looks: "When will it be your turn to ask about the master's affairs?" gone?"

Nanny Wang shut up resentfully, remembering the day when she was hanged upside down, her mouth twitched, and she disappeared before their eyes.

After she left, Bai Yanran asked, "Qing Wan, is it not good for you to do this?"

Even though she knew that Ye Qingwan had such a temper, she still wanted to try to persuade her, in case that slave hated her because of this, he might do something small to her.

Sure enough, the persuasion failed, Ye Qingwan sneered and said: "This is the attitude towards Diao Nu."

After leaving the mansion, there was a carriage parked in front of the main entrance, and a few men dressed as servants were waiting around the carriage, Ye Qingwan frowned and asked, "This is it?"

Bai Yanran said with a helpless smile: "Daddy said that today is the holiday and there are many people on the street. He was worried that something unnecessary would happen to my girl's family outside, so he told them to follow."

Ye Qingwan: "Okay."

Several people got into the carriage and drove towards the west of the city. After running for half an hour, the carriage finally stopped in front of a temple.

There were many people coming in and out of the temple gate, all holding a piece of blue-gray lottery paper in their hands. The difference was that some people had unconcealable joy on their faces, while others had bitter faces.

Out of curiosity, Zhiyi poked his head to look over it. After looking for a long time, he still couldn't understand why the people holding the papers had different expressions of joy and sorrow, so he asked suspiciously: "What are they holding in their hands?" ?”

Seeing this, Bai Yanran patiently explained to them: "That is probably the unique marriage lottery of Jiayuan Temple. At first, everyone agreed that this thing was a deception, until a pair of sisters came to ask for a lottery two days ago, and they were all Signed, and the next day their respective favorite sons will come to propose marriage."

Zhiyi opened her eyes wide in surprise, "So mysterious?!"

"Maybe it's just a coincidence." Ye Qingwan smiled contemptuously, obviously not believing that this signing paper would really affect a person's marriage.After she finished speaking, she walked straight to the temple, beckoned to the people behind her and said, "Don't just stand there."

Zhiyi shook her head and sighed: "We girls are like this, we don't believe in gods and Buddhas, we only believe in ourselves."

Bai Yanran expressed that she could understand.

Afraid of losing Ye Qingwan, Bai Yanran immediately ordered her servants to wait outside the temple, and trotted to follow.

Jiayuan Temple looks small from the outside, but inside it is full of space. The most eye-catching thing is a monoecious ginkgo tree outside the Daxiong Hall. The branches and trunk of the tree are covered with red cloth strips. The cloth strips move in the wind, and there is a strange and coquettish beauty in the wind.

Ye Qingwan thought, this should be the "very good" marriage tree that Bai Yanran said.

The little novice who was welcoming the guests under the marriage tree was very busy. Seeing Ye Qingwan and his party, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly left the few people around him and ran towards them.

The little novice raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, then clasped his palms together and saluted them, and said flatteringly with a smile: "Are the benefactors coming to our temple to seek marriage or to offer incense?"

"It's all." Ye Qingwan said.

"Then please come with the monk." The little novice made a gesture of invitation and walked in front of them to lead the way.

Zhiyi always has endless questions, she pointed to those who were left behind by the little novice monk and asked: "Then you don't care about them?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across the face of the little novice, and he immediately recovered, and replied: "There will be other senior brothers to receive me."

Ye Qingwan glanced at him indifferently.

It is estimated that the little novice saw that they were young ladies from a rich family, and they did not have their parents by their side, so they could cheat for incense money.

Suddenly, the little novice stopped walking, turned around, touched his bare head, and asked: "May I ask the benefactors whether to ask for marriage first, or burn incense first, or burn incense while seeking marriage?"

Ye Qingwan remained silent, she curled her lips calmly, she really didn't like this smooth novice from the bottom of her heart.

Bai Yanran also stopped, looked at the people around her, and said with a smile: "Then let's accompany Qingwan to burn incense first."

Then the little novice brought them to the main hall, where a huge golden Buddha statue stood in the center of the hall.

Compared with the outside, there were much fewer people in the main hall. It seemed that most of the people came here just to ask Na Laoshizi to sign the paper.

After the little monk handed them incense sticks, he stepped aside.

Ye Qingwan held Lixiang in one hand, lifted the skirt with the other, and knelt on the futon.
