Mrs. Shizi, she is both wise and brave

Chapter 11

Su Jingning looked through the gap in the veiled hat, and there really was a middle-aged man in Taoist robes sitting on the ground beside the gate.This person has an ordinary appearance, wearing half-worn clothes, only his skin is crystal clear, and his complexion looks very good.

There was also a white cloth in front of him, with four big characters "seeing a doctor for free" written on it.But I didn't make a sound to attract guests, I just watched the believers coming and going with a smile, and took out the wine gourd on my waist to take a sip from time to time.

Seeing this situation, Su Jingning raised her eyebrows in surprise. No matter how you look at it, it's so strange. Taoist priests set up stalls in Buddhist temples to see doctors for free?

The believers passing by were also obviously curious, but they all held a skeptical attitude and no one came forward to see a doctor.

Su Jingning looked at the Taoist priest and saw that she couldn't see anything famous, so she stopped paying attention, and was about to follow the Zhike monk to continue walking in, but the Taoist priest suddenly looked at her and asked with a smile:
"Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun, does this female benefactor want to see fortune-telling?"

Su Jingning was taken aback, and Nian Qing couldn't help muttering: "Isn't it written about seeing a doctor, why is it fortune-telling again?"

Su Jingning never believed in these things, and when she woke up, she was about to refuse, but the Taoist seemed to see her thoughts and persuaded herself: "This is the sudden inspiration of the poor Taoist, the hexagrams are extremely accurate, and it is the most rare thing to encounter." Please, it’s a pity that the benefactor missed it!”

"Thank you, real person, don't bother me." After speaking, Su Jingning thanked politely but still refused.

Although this Taoist looks weird, she has the truth in her heart at this moment and doesn't care about anything else.

The Taoist didn't mind seeing this, and after Su Jingning left, he only sighed with interest in his eyes: "Heaven has no relatives, and is always with good people. The ancestors are sincere and do not deceive me!"

"What is the old man muttering about?" As soon as he finished speaking, there was an elegant and peaceful voice next to him.

A passer-by heard the sound and saw that it was a handsome young man.

This young man has a handsome face and a tall and straight posture. Although he is only wearing a white brocade robe, he looks like a moon and jade, very clean and elegant.

The Taoist priest ignored him, but still stared at the figure that was gradually moving away, and sighed enviously: "The little girl is going to get rich!"

Hearing this, the young man also followed his gaze, and when he saw only a figure from the back that was vaguely covered by the maidservant, he looked away disinterestedly.

Let's make an appointment with the lady who came to Shangxiang!

However, although the old man is unreliable, he is a bit good at fortune-telling. It seems that this young lady is really going to get rich!
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth lightly lifted, and the stream of eyes rippling slightly around, which attracted the girls and young women nearby couldn't help but stop and linger.

The Taoist waited for the figure to disappear around the corner before turning to the young man and cursing: "Stinky boy, are you blind? Your master, I am only forty years old, how can I be an old man?"

The boy nodded noncommittally.

Forty?Liar!

He has been like this ever since he became a teacher, and he has not changed at all in the past ten years. He is definitely a fine old man!

The Taoist didn't care whether he believed it or not, when he saw a group of girls and women attracted by the youthful demeanor, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately greeted, "You came just in time, help me solicit customers."

He made a bet with that bald donkey Zhikong to see whether his medical skills in saving people are superior or his Buddhism is better in saving people!

The boy smiled and said, "You are cheating, it doesn't match your name."

The Taoist priest rolled his eyes blankly: "What if I lose if I don't cheat?"

The young man said, "medical skills save the body, and Buddhism saves the mind. Both have their own strengths. Why should we distinguish between the superior and inferior?"

"I'm happy!" The Taoist rolled his eyes even more.

Seeing this, the young man stopped persuading him, but instead said: "Master is good at divination, why don't you count the outcome of this round?"

The Taoist shook his head and sighed deeply when he heard the words: "I dare not calculate the hexagrams, I am afraid of the impermanence of the heavens, let alone it has something to do with myself!"

"However," he said, looking up at the young man, which was quite meaningful, "I have made a divination for you as a teacher."

Shen Lingze raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "I would like to hear the details."

The Taoist chanted: "Don't dare to calculate the hexagrams to the fullest for fear of the impermanence of the heavens, dare not go deep for the fear of a big dream! Haha, you and my master and disciple share this speech, it is really fate!"

The young man's thoughts turned slightly, and he was about to ask in detail, but a girl finally mustered up the courage to come forward to see a doctor...

Su Jingning naturally didn't know about the lawsuit behind her, because she was a female family member and couldn't show her face in public, so she sat and rested for a while after entering the guest courtyard, and Su Jingyan followed the monks to the hall to make arrangements.

After a while, Nian Qing, who went with her, came back first and reported: "Miss, the dojo will be set up soon, and the third young master asked us to set up an incense table here to worship Madam."

Su Jingning nodded, and told Nianyu to take the little girls to display the incense candle tribute brought from home.

After a while, Nianyu came over and replied that everything was packed.

Su Jingning took the maids out, knelt down on the brocade mat in front of the incense table, and worshiped devoutly.

"Mother, don't worry, Aning will definitely protect his father and grandparents' family, and let those who owe us all suffer the consequences!"

After the ceremony, Su Jingning thought silently while watching the clear smoke rising from the desk.

At this time, Su Jingyan also came back, and seeing Su Jingning's red eyes, he knew that she was sad.

But he was always taciturn, and he couldn't say any words of comfort, he just went to the incense table and saluted seriously and offered incense, only then did he realize that the hall has been properly arranged.

Su Jingning gave some instructions and went to the ashram with him.

When the ceremony started, Su Jingning knelt down and stayed quietly.

Although she doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but at this moment in this solemn and solemn hall, listening to the sound of chanting scriptures and the sound of wooden fish, the sadness and hostility rising in her heart were slowly soothed, and her mood calmed down.

It wasn't until noon that the ceremony was over, and Su Jingning and Su Jingyan stayed in the temple for a vegetarian meal.

After dinner, Su Jingyan took his servants to the famous "Pagoda Courtyard" in the temple to pay their respects to the historic sites, while Su Jingning stayed in the room to rest for a while.

Just a quarter of an hour later, Nianyu entered the house from the outside.

"Miss, someone is here." She made an excuse to go out during lunch.

Su Jingning nodded and got up, and took Nianyu Nianqing out of the room.

Because she had already sent the little girls into the house, only the two women with the car were gossiping outside, and when they saw Su Jingning, they hurriedly said hello to her.

Su Jingning avoided the ceremony, and when she saw them looking at her, she smiled and said, "I'm a little overwhelmed after eating, so I took the girl to digest food near the yard. The two nuns don't have to follow after a hard day, and go to the next room to rest. rest!"

After finishing speaking, Nianqing took out two pieces of silver and stuffed them in, saying: "The two mothers will buy some snacks later."

When the two saw the silver, they happily took it to their hands and thanked them again and again. One of the women also said: "Miss San, just go, if you have anything to do, just shout, and the servant will be there immediately."

Su Jingning nodded with a smile and went out with Nianqing and Nianyu.

But she didn't wander around as she said, but went straight to a side hall with two maids.
