Chapter 13
In a blink of an eye, it is the Double Ninth Festival.

On this day, Jiang Ping made a special trip to remind Fu Rudi and others not to go out.

The backyard was such a big area, Fu Jiao couldn't wait any longer, so she deliberately walked to the door and then turned back.

Seeing this, Jiang Ping smiled dryly and said, "If Fourth Miss finds it boring, I can continue to discuss the policy topic for that day with you."

"No need."

"Miss Fourth is not interested anymore?"

Fu Jiao glanced at the top of his head and sighed loudly: "Mr. Jiang has been standing under his pants for so long, I'm afraid he will get into trouble. I'd better say less to you today, otherwise I will infect you with bad luck."

Jiang Ping subconsciously raised his eyes and saw a rope pulled above his head, displaying several pairs of large underpants.

"Sorry, Mr. Jiang! I'll take my pants back right now!"

Si Nan hurried out and pulled his pants off the rope with a red face.Jiang Ping's face turned blue and white, and he couldn't even fake a smile.

Fu Jiao went back to the house, closed the door, and started grinding cinnabar.

Chen Wensheng stood in the corner and did not dare to approach.

Her table is covered with a golden copper coin sword painted by Chen Wensheng.Fu Jiao observed carefully and used cinnabar to draw different runes on the yellow paper bit by bit.

"Master, are you going to visit the Shengniang Temple tonight?"

"Of course I'm going."

Fu Jiao hummed, not feeling any pressure, "I just need to make sure everything is in place."

There are twelve copper coins in the golden copper coin sword on the seabed, and each coin is engraved with a suppressive charm.The person who draws the talisman is very skilled, and ordinary people will definitely be exhausted.Fortunately, Fu Jiao's achievements were even better. Even if Chen Wensheng just sketched a rough outline, she could solve it in detail.

After a while, Yan Ji, who was sleeping with Zhao Hao, came back.

In the past few days, she followed Zhao Hao every day, and she also paid attention to her appearance. She no longer looked scary with her bloody look.

She distanced her long hair and reported to Fu Jiao: "The new Shengniang Temple built by Song Lang has been completed."

"went well?"

"Smooth." Yan Ji smiled slightly.

When it was first announced that the Shengniang Temple would be built, many villagers opposed it.But Zhao Hao was willing to spend money. Anyone who disagreed would be silenced with gold, and the wages he offered were staggering.A lot of money must be brave. In less than five days, a short but splendid Shengniang Temple was built.Jiang Ping learned the news and wanted to persuade Zhao Hao, but Zhao Hao, in the name of King Guangping's donation, left Jiang Ping unable to refute.

Some villagers wanted to gather together to cause trouble, but they were intimidated by Yan Ji and dispersed.

However, there is no clay statue of Shuiwei Saint Niang in the temple.

The altar was empty, with a few plates of tributes placed on it. It was very simple and deserted.

Neither Yanji nor Chen Wensheng knew what medicine Fu Jiao sold in his gourd.

Fu Jiao likes to be mysterious.

She drew the talisman and said with a smile: "Anyway, the Shengniang Temple is repaired. Let's go and pay homage to her in the evening."

After dinner in the evening, Fu Jiao took the initiative to say good night to Fu Rudi.

"Brother, don't look at the file for too long."

Fu Jiao lit a corner of incense for Fu Rudi.

There was light smoke floating in the room. I couldn't tell what it smelled like, but it smelled like green grass and was pleasant.

"This fragrance has a calming effect. Brother, please go to bed early. I'm going to bed."

"Well, go ahead." Fu Rudi was already used to her care.

Light an incense stick for him from time to time, or cook him a bowl of plain noodles.

Sniffing the fragrant aroma at the tip of his nose, Fu Rudi suddenly felt tired from work.He rubbed his brows and prepared to go to bed to rest.

Fu Jiao peeked at the door for a while.

Seeing Fu Rudi sitting on the bed, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and went back to the house to tinker with her things.

The wooden clapper was struck three times in Xu's time, and the streets outside the courtyard were deserted and quiet, as if there were no chirping of insects or birds.After Hai hour, there was suddenly the sound of silk, bamboo, gongs and drums, and the sound of playing and playing, as if some family was holding some happy event, and it was very lively.

Fu Jiao released Chen Wensheng and Yan Ji.

"Go and see what's going on."

After a while, Chen Wensheng left and returned. "A group of villagers carried a sedan chair to Qingshiling. They should be going to Shengniang Temple to offer sacrifices."

Fu Jiao asked: "You are also from Qiongzhou, have you never been there before?"

Chen Wensheng shook his head, "I have been studying abroad since the provincial examination and rarely come back." His relatives died young, and his memories of his hometown have long been blurred. The only thing that is clear in his mind is the appearance of the Shuiwei Holy Lady.

Fu Jiao never asked him why he was so obsessed with Shuiwei Saint Niang.

Yan Ji, on the other hand, asked coldly: "How much kindness does the Holy Lady have to you, and you have to repay it even if you become a ghost?"

"A great kindness."

Chen Wensheng's eyes were full of nostalgia, and he smiled shyly: "My parents died early, and they were always hungry and full. A five-year-old is about the same height as a three-year-old. One time I was so hungry that I stole a steamed bun and was beaten. People chased and beat me. I was scared, so I ran and ran and ran into the Shengniang Temple. It rained heavily that day and it was dark. I was soaked, cold and hungry. When I felt like I was about to die of hunger and cold, the Holy Lady on the shrine appeared. Her whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of luminous gauze mist, and she was thousands of times more beautiful than the most beautiful person in the painting..."

Young Chen Wensheng was very scared.

But Shuiwei Saint Lady gently comforted him, not to be afraid.

She let him eat the tributes on the altar, and gently stroked his forehead with her slender fingers, making the shabby clothes soaked by the rain look brand new.

Chen Wensheng cried while eating. He was so grateful that he didn't know what to do.But Shuiwei Holy Lady smiled and shook her head: "You don't need to thank me. It is my duty to protect this land, and the wishes of the people are what my heart is about."

Shuiwei Shengniang not only fed and clothed him, but also gave him a sum of money.The only requirement is that she cannot tell the world about her apparition.

Chen Wensheng kept secrets strictly.

Whenever he was in pain and confusion, he would come to the Holy Lady Temple, pray devoutly and receive guidance from the Holy Lady.

He studied hard in the cold window, step by step from the remote countryside to the soft red imperial city.But the gentle and kind-hearted Holy Lady in his memory became more and more eccentric and never appeared in front of him again.After becoming the most beautiful girl in high school, he thought he could ask the Holy Mother to show her spirit when he returned to his hometown in fine clothes. However, when he met an unkind person, everything came to nothing.

As Chen Wensheng spoke, tears burst into his face unknowingly.

"I don't hate Jiang Ping for killing me, I just hate him for turning me into a wandering ghost and unable to see the Holy Lady again."

"Okay, don't cry."

Fu Jiao threw the prepared mahogany sword with a talisman on her back, with a look of disgust on her face, "Cry, cry, cry, you've ruined all your luck."

Chen Wensheng wiped his tears: "What, what kind of luck?"

"See your luck as a saint!"

She urged: "Let's go! Follow those villagers. I want to see how they perform sacrifices."

As a mysterious master, Fu Jiao can keenly detect all unusual supernatural phenomena.

She quietly left the government office, thinking that she didn't alert anyone.Unexpectedly, when she turned around and closed the door, the door to the next door also opened slightly...
