Fortunately, Yayoi quickly brought many little carrot heads, which alleviated Song Jiuchi's embarrassment.
Master Mingde once again said to them gratefully: "Thank you all the donors for your kindness!"
These are white-flour steamed buns. He hasn't made them for his children in many years.
Thinking of this, Master Mingde felt a little sad, but looking at the innocent smiles of the children, Mingde felt that everything was worth it.
"Abbott, I have something else that I would like to ask you alone."
Jiang Wan made an invitation gesture and took Master Mingde to the side, while Song Jiuyuan helped with the rest.
Walking to the side, Master Mingde gently twisted the Buddhist beads in his slightly calloused hands, and his kind eyes fell on Jiang Wan.
Although the eyes were gentle, they seemed to be able to understand everything, which made Jiang Wan feel inexplicably panicked.
"I know what you're thinking."
Master Mingde stood with one hand in front of him and twisted the beads in the other hand.
"I know you don't belong here, but everything in this world has its own destiny. It originates and perishes."
"Abbott!"
Jiang Wan's heart skipped a beat. How capable was Master Mingde? He could actually see that she had traveled to another world?
Jiang Wan's heart was pounding, her fists under her sleeves were clenched tightly, and the look on her face was a little tense.
"You don't have to be so nervous."
Master Mingde smiled at the corner of his mouth, "I'm very strict and won't reveal your privacy."
"Thank you, Master Abbot."
Jiang Wan's heart relaxed slightly when he mentioned it. Master Mingde is a good person, he shouldn't talk nonsense, right?
No, even if he was lying, she would not admit it. After all, who would believe that she could revive a dead body?
"You're welcome too."
Mingde had a very good impression of Jiang Wan, and he said eloquently: "Lao Na Guan, the female benefactor San Ting, is a person with profound blessings.
I also have a good affinity with you, so I will give you a hexagram, and your right fate will be by your side. "
Jiang Wan:? ? ?
She was stunned for a moment, and then thought that he was probably Song Jiuyuan.
The original owner's perfect match was indeed him, but she was not the original owner.
But...the abbot's other calculations are pretty accurate, that's it...
Jiang Wan shook her head, unwilling to think deeply, and said respectfully: "Thank you, abbot, for the tip. This is fortune money."
She took out a hundred taels of silver from her sleeve, which made Mingde stunned.
This... female donor is so generous!
It’s been a long time since such a generous pilgrim came to their temple!
"Thank you, female donor."
Mingde tried hard to maintain his respectable appearance and took the money with trembling hands.
If you save some money, you can use it for two or three years.
Just when Mingde was grateful and wanted to add a few more kind words to Jiang Wan, Jiang Wan took out another four hundred taels from his sleeve.
"Thank you to the abbot for taking me in last night. I heard from Yayoi about the children.
The abbot is a good man, but your temple is in tatters and there are no pilgrims on weekdays.
You can use the money to renovate the temple and make the statues gilded and more majestic. Then more pilgrims will naturally come. "
Mingde's eyes almost bulged out when he looked at the handful of banknotes in Jiang Wan's hand.
Still on the side, Yayoi quietly tugged at Mingtoku's clothes, which were as thin as leaves.
"Master, your saliva is almost dripping on the floor."
"Yayoi!"
Mingde flicked a pick on his forehead angrily, and then excitedly took the banknote from Jiang Wan's hand.
"The female donor is indeed a person with profound blessings. I wish you and your husband a long life together and never leave each other in love.
Give birth to some fat boys earlier, and..."
"Abbott, that's it."
Jiang Wan blushed and interrupted the abbot. Why did he decide that Song Jiuyuan was his perfect match?
Song Jiuyuan especially liked to listen to Mingde's speech, and he also took out two banknotes from his sleeves.
"I don't have much banknotes with me, take it and buy some food and warm clothes for the children.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so just think of it as a small gift from me to the children. "
Mingde looked at the two hundred taels in Song Jiuyuan's hand, and smiled even more from ear to ear, completely losing his previous appearance of an outsider.
Yayoi:……
Master, your reputation will last forever!
At this moment, Mingde couldn't think of his own image problem. He gratefully accepted the banknote.
"The benefactor is destined to be rich and noble. If there are noble people to help him, it will be even more extraordinary in the future. He is the noblest among nobles."
His original intention was to praise Song Jiuyuan more, but when he took a closer look at his face, he was so shocked that he almost lost his composure.
Song Jiuyuan didn't care about this, he just said: "Since you have the kindness to take in so many children.
I believe you can make good use of this money, and there is no need to say more about the rest. "
"Thank you two donors!"
Mingde was moved and wiped the tears from his eyes. Ever since he started adopting children, he couldn't stop.
On the one hand, he hated those parents who were lazy and abandoned their children. On the other hand, he really couldn't bear to leave these children outside to freeze to death.
"Children, come and thank your benefactor."
Master Mingde waved, and the little carrot heads who were eating steamed buns came over one after another.
"Thank you for the kind man's steamed buns."
"My beautiful sister is a good person and she will be blessed with great blessings in the future."
"Brother is also a good person. You are all good people. Good people are rewarded."
"..."
As expected of a child who grew up in a temple, even though his voice sounded milky, his words were exactly the same as what Mingde said.
Mingde was very satisfied and gave each of them a peace charm before Jiang Wan left.
Mrs. Song was still sighing in the carriage, "If Master Mingde hadn't been tripped up by the child, he would have been a very powerful master."
"He is also a powerful master now."
Jiang Wan couldn't help but mutter. It was even obvious that she didn't belong to Dafeng. How could she be a simple person?
"Sister Jiang, what did you say?"
Qi Chu did not get on the carriage, but stood on horseback by their window. Before leaving, Jiang Wan gave some instructions.
"It's nothing, Chu Chu, go back slowly and pay attention to safety."
"Sister Jiang, don't worry. I've always been alone before, so I'm fine."
Qi Chu smiled broadly and held the sword given to her by Jiang Wan in her hand.
Song Jiuchi couldn't help but said, "It's safe. I don't know who was hunted down last time, and it almost got us involved."
"Song Jiuchi!"
Qi Chu glared at her angrily, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you."
After saying this, she rode away in the opposite direction, and then couldn't help but turn back and wave to Jiang Wan and the others.
Jiang Wan also smiled and waved, "Chu Chu, have a safe journey."
Her voice was not loud, but Qi Chu could clearly see the shape of her mouth, and they continued on their journey after they had gone far away.
But Song Jiuchi, who was full of energy and fighting with Qi Chu just now, was like an eggplant beaten by frost, leaning on the side of the carriage with his eyes closed to rest.
Mrs. Chen was in good spirits now, holding her little daughter in her arms, and happily said to everyone:
"My husband named his daughter Chen Wen'en. She should be grateful to everyone who helped us along the way."
When she said this, her eyes fell on Jiang Wan. If it weren't for the princess, their mother and daughter might not be able to survive.
