Chapter 268
Mao Mingxuan smiled, and helped Mrs. Chen walk towards the gate of the temple.

After burning incense devoutly in front of the Buddha, Mrs. Chen went to the eminent monks in the temple with the birthday horoscopes of Mao Mingxuan and Zhao Furong.

Master Kujie has been in the temple for many years, although he is not the host, he is highly respected.Most of the things like this kind of horoscope calculation are done by him.And he didn't agree easily, only three times in a month.

When Mrs. Chen asked Matchmaker Zhang to go to the Zhao family to propose marriage, she had already been asked.Master Kujie has given people two horoscopes this month.Come today, I don't know if the third chance will fall on them.

The monks in the temple heard about Mrs. Chen's intention to come, and said with a smile: "The benefactor is also a predestined person. Master Kujie hasn't gotten along with anyone in the past two days, so there is one more chance."

Chen immediately laughed and said, "That's a good relationship! I'm still worried!"

The monk smiled, and led Chen Shi and Mao Mingxuan to the living room of Master Kujie.

When we got outside the living room, we could faintly hear the sound of chanting scriptures coming from inside.

"Master Kujie's morning class is not over yet, the two benefactors will wait for a while." The monk said.

Mrs. Chen nodded repeatedly, without speaking, and just stood silently outside the door.Mao Mingxuan was also standing aside, waiting patiently.

After a while, the sound inside stopped, and the monk who had just led the way stepped forward to knock on the door.

"Come in." A slightly old but steady voice said.

The monk opened the door, went in to report, and came out after a while to welcome Chen Shi and Mao Mingxuan in.

That Master of Kujie had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, not only his hair was completely white, but also his eyebrows and beard were also white, which seemed a bit fairy-like.

"Hello, Master Kujie!" Chen clasped his hands together and saluted.

"Both benefactors, please sit down." Master Kujie smiled.

Mao Mingxuan nodded slightly, and sat down with Mrs. Chen.

"Master, this is the horoscope of the two people's birthdays." Chen Shi respectfully handed over the purse with the horoscopes of the two people's birthdays written on it to Master Kujie.

Master Kujie took it apart and looked at it, and said with a smile, "To be able to combine the characters of Wenqu Xing today is also considered the luck of the three lives of the old monk."

Mao Mingxuan was slightly taken aback, it was the first time he had met this Master of Kujie, how did he know that he was the number one scholar?In Yangzhou, he didn't parade around the streets like he did in Beijing.Although the magistrate has invited many famous people in Yangzhou to take care of him, but even the monks in the temple don't know about it, right?Could it really be seen from the horoscope?Then this bitter precept is really capable.

Chen's face showed joy and said: "Master is indeed amazing! Quanzi is the champion of this year's new discipline. Do you think the two people's horoscopes match?"

In fact, Mao Mingxuan didn't really believe in the theory of horoscopes, but everyone in the world is like this, so he followed Chen's arrangements.It's just that he didn't expect that when he opened his mouth, he would be skeptical.

At this moment, like Chen Shi, he was somewhat looking forward to Kujie's next words.

"A match made in heaven." Master Kujie said.

Although there are only four words, Chen Shi has already heaved a sigh of relief, and the look of joy on his face is even more joyful.However, a trace of disappointment flashed in Mao Mingxuan's eyes.This is too simple to say.

"Even so, for the harmony between the husband and wife and the prosperity of the house, the Zhuangyuan Gong and this girl must respect and love each other and work together." Master Kujie said again.

This sentence is actually applicable to all families, but at this time, Master Kujie specifically exhorted it, and it seemed to have other deep meanings.

Mao Mingxuan only responded respectfully and didn't say much.Chen Shi really wanted to ask a few more questions, but in the face of hardships, she didn't seem to dare to ask more.

"Thank you, Master Kujie." In the end, that's all Chen said.

Master Kujie nodded slightly, and said again: "The eighth day of the next lunar month is an auspicious day, and it is advisable to get married."

Is this even the date of his wedding?Mao Mingxuan couldn't help but take a second look at this Kujie.Chen's face was full of joy, and he said a little excitedly: "Thank you, Master! I am really worried that I don't know which day to choose."

Master Kujie smiled and nodded slightly.

Only then did Mrs. Chen take Mao Mingxuan to leave.

After leaving Master Kujie's meditation room, Chen Shi said: "Mingxuan, Master Kujie never counts it as a wedding day for anyone."

"Why?" Mao Mingxuan asked in surprise.

Mrs. Chen shook her head, "I don't know. Even these horoscopes are three times a month. It's really rare for him to take the initiative to count your auspicious days for you today."

Mao Mingxuan didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Emiang, isn't it too late for the eighth day of next month?"

"No hurry, no rush. You will leave home to take up the post at the end of next month, and the big wedding just happens to happen before that!" Mrs. Chen hurriedly said, "Your Mama will invite craftsmen to come back to repair it today, and the work will be completed by the end of this month."

It was difficult for Mao Mingxuan to say anything.He also knew that Chen and Mao Chengyun might not feel at ease if they didn't get married before taking office.

The six ceremonies of the wedding, Nacai, Wenming, and Najib have all been completed.All that's left is to accept the registration, ask for a date, and greet you in person.

Since the Chen family had long thought of marrying Mao Mingxuan, the betrothal gift had already been prepared.Now that the horoscope has been matched, the betrothal gift can be sent to your door.

Mrs. Zhao was also very happy when she heard that Master Kujie had chosen a wedding date for the two of them.Some eminent monks choose the date, so they feel that this marriage is unusual.

As a result, both families got busy, just waiting for the wedding on the eighth day of next month.

Naturally, this movement cannot be concealed from others.Many people in Yangzhou city sighed.How could such a good son-in-law be taken over by the Zhao family?

But when they think about the relationship between the Mao and Zhao families, many people understand it.There has been no movement between the two before, presumably there is a tacit understanding.

When the magistrate's wife heard about this, thinking of Fang Ruoyu who was grounded, she only said: "No luck." Then she didn't say much.

In the capital, a letter was delivered to Uncle Chen's residence.

He happened to be taking a rest today, and when he heard that it was a letter from Yangzhou, he couldn't wait to open it.

Su Shi also stretched her neck to look at it, and urged: "Master, please see what Eldest Sister said in the letter?"

Chen Junjie unfolded it for a while, then frowned.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Su said, "Eldest sister disagrees?"

"The eldest sister said that she had already visited Mingxuan's family in Yangzhou. Although she has not passed the Ming Dynasty, the two families have already established a tacit understanding, so it is not easy to refuse." Chen Junjie said.

Su's has never been very optimistic about this marriage.But now her daughter is looking forward to it, and her master obviously wants to make it happen.In the end, the Mao family refused, and she felt angry all of a sudden.

"Eldest sister is also true. How can there be any good people in that small place in Yangzhou? Don't even look at what kind of talent we Ruzhu are!"

"Didn't you delay this matter?" Chen Junjie glared at her, and said, "If I had written a letter years ago, the marriage would have been settled long ago! Why did someone preempt it!"
