After breakfast, the first batch of glass has been shipped.
Jia Cong took the carpenters to Jia Mu's yard and replaced all the glass here.
Jia Mu was very satisfied when she saw the replaced doors and windows.
Then, I helped several sisters replace their rooms with glass.
Then, he handed the person over to Wang Xifeng and asked her to lead the people to install the remaining places.
Wang Xifeng said: "Brother Cong, where do you want to go if you leave the errand to your sister-in-law?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, I have something to do outside. I have to go out. These people will be left to you. You only need to find someone to lead the way. You don't need to worry about the rest."
Wang Xifeng knew that this brother-in-law had been busy recently. People who went to Ning Mansion to deliver gifts were queuing up a long way, which made Wang Xifeng jealous.
How great would it be to give yourself a gift? It's a pity that my man doesn't have that ability, so he can only watch.
"Okay, if you know it, you will find trouble for me, and no good things will come to me."
Jia Cong smiled and shook his head. It was unreasonable for these old ladies to complain about installing glass in their own homes.
Returning to Ningguo Mansion, he took two ginseng trees, took Qingwen, Li Biao, and two teams of personal guards, and rode towards the west gate.
Muni Yuan is also a nunnery. Although Jia Cong has never been there, he knows the location and is not very far from Shuiyue Nunnery.
Of course, the current Shuiwolian is no longer called Shuiwolian, but has been changed to Qingjingan.
The romantic little nun is smart and has become the abbot of Qingjing Temple. With Jia Cong's support, no one who is short-sighted dares to cause trouble.
Jia Cong's reputation in Shenjing City is far-reaching.
Of course, not all reputations are good, but more bad reputations.
Jia Cong controls the Five Cities Military and Horse Department, so naturally he cannot hide some rumors from him.
He knew clearly who passed it on, but he didn't bother to argue with them. Why did he, a general, want a good reputation? This would be more beneficial to me, and I really want to thank these people properly.
The war horse trotted all the way to the gate of Muni Courtyard.
Jia Cong got off his horse, handed the reins to Li Biao, and took Qingwen up to call the door.
Hearing a knock on the door, a little nun came to the door.
He glanced at Jia Cong and Qingwen, then looked at the horses in the distance and the waiting people, clasped his hands and said, "Amitabha, what's the matter with the donor? We are a nunnery and we do not accept male donors."
Jia Cong pouted, this was really not something she, a little nun, had the final say on.
Qingwen was even more straightforward and said loudly: "Ning Guogong is here to visit the master, why don't you hurry up and lead the way?"
When the little nun heard this, she was shocked. She didn't expect that the famous Ning Guogong was actually right in front of her. She took a look at Jia Cong and saw that he indeed looked like a young man, so she believed him.
"I didn't know that Duke Ning Guo was here. It's disrespectful. It's disrespectful. Duke Ning is here to invite you."
Jia Cong nodded and followed the little nun through the door.
He asked casually: "Little master, I have an old friend here to help you. This person is proficient in innate calculations. I am here to visit her. I wonder if she is still there?"
The little nun suddenly realized that she was here to tell fortunes. She didn't expect Ning Guogong to believe this.
"Amitabha, Lord Ning Guo has come at the right time. They haven't left yet. I will take you there right now."
The three of them came to a remote Zen monastery and met Master Miaoyu.
It's just that Miaoyu's master was not in good condition at this time, and he was really on his deathbed.
Seeing Jia Cong's arrival, Teacher Taiqiang smiled to himself.
"Ning Guo Gong, I can't pay you any tributes. I didn't expect to see you again at the last moment. We are really destined. My disciple Miaoyu will leave it to Ning Guo Gong."
Jia Cong said: "Master, don't worry. I will definitely do what I promised. Master Miaoyu will definitely protect you. I brought two ginseng plants here. I wonder if they can be useful?"
Jia Cong handed the ginseng to Miaoyu, and Miaoyu didn't refuse. She took it and brought it to her master.
The teacher took one look at it and said: "Although it is a good thing, it is not of much use to me. The end of the poor nun has come, and there is no way to save it, so don't waste it."
Miaoyu frowned and said: "Master..."
The teacher said: "Chi'er, remember that as a teacher, you must not be willful. Everyone else should leave. I have a few words to say to Ning Guogong. Yu'er should also stay."
Everyone else retreated. Qingwen looked at Jia Cong, saw Jia Cong nodded, and then went out the door.
Seeing that there were no outsiders, the teacher said: "With Ning Guogong's appearance, it is impossible for him to achieve such an achievement. This makes me puzzled. I once secretly told you a fortune, but got nothing. Ning Guogong Can you clarify the confusion?”
After hearing these words, Jia Cong was not surprised at all, as if he had expected it.
Glancing at the old nun, Jia Cong smiled slightly and said, "Teacher, I have never heard of such a saying. It is said that man can conquer nature and change his fate against nature. My fate is up to me and not up to God."
As soon as these words came out, the master and the disciple were shocked. How much confidence do you have to say these words?
Thinking of the hexagram I had tested for him and my own speculation, I couldn't help but understand.
"No wonder, no wonder, Ning Guogong has such lofty words and lofty sentiments, which is really admirable. The poor nun risked his life to measure a hexagram for you. It should be of some use to you. I have already told Yu'er and asked her to explain it to you. I have no time, Amitabha."
The old nun clasped her hands together, slowly lowered her head, and made no more noise.
Seeing this, Miaoyu quickly shouted: "Master, master."
Jia Cong stepped forward and checked his breathing and pulse. He found that there was indeed no life left, and the old nun had passed away.
"Miaoyu, your master has passed away. You should have been mentally prepared, so don't be too sad."
Even though he said that, he was Miaoyu's master after all, and the relatives who had grown up with her since childhood, how could they really not be sad?
Seeing that the master was really dead, Miaoyu still cried sadly.
Jia Cong didn't try to persuade her anymore, he just sat silently with her and cried for a while if he wanted to.
After a cup of tea, I saw that Miaoyu was still crying, so I stepped forward to persuade him: "Your master has passed away, so don't be too sad. From now on, I will take good care of you."
The first priority is to prepare for your master's funeral. Does your master have any instructions for your own funeral? "
Miaoyu choked with sobs and nodded, saying: "My master refused to let me send her back to Jiangnan, so she was buried in the pagoda forest on the mountain behind Muni Yuan. He asked me to stay in the capital and wait for you to come back, and I will stay with you in the future."
Miaoyu said and looked up at Jia Cong, wanting to see his expression.
This is the support that the master has found for himself. I don’t know if he can rely on it?
Jia Cong knew in his heart that now was the time when Miaoyu was most vulnerable and helpless. It was the time when he needed his care and consideration the most, and it was also the time when it was easiest to get into her heart.
He gently stepped forward, took her into his arms, wiped the tears from her eyes, and said softly: "Don't worry, I'm here. I will take good care of you in the future, pamper you, love you, and care for you." I will treat you well all my life."
Miaoyu was suddenly hugged by Jia Cong, and she felt panicked.
This was the first time in my life that I was hugged by a man. My face suddenly turned bright red, and I felt extremely shy.
Instinctively, I wanted to break free, but when I remembered what my master had said to me, and saw that Jia Cong didn't move anything or belittle me, he was just comforting me and wiping away his tears, I gave up the struggle and leaned down gently. On Jia Cong's chest.
Hearing Jia Cong's words, I felt a little shy and happy, but also felt a little relieved. I felt that Jia Cong's arms were comfortable and warm.
Miaoyu's master has always been her support, but now her support is suddenly gone.
For a young girl, it would be a lie if she said she wasn't worried. At this moment, Miaoyu felt very hesitant and helpless. Jia Cong's broad chest immediately calmed her down.
This is the feeling of dependence, this is the dependence that the master has found for himself. The master has left no stone unturned, and he has indeed not deceived himself.
Thinking of the hexagram his master had calculated for him, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Although it was a near miss and nothing serious, I decided to remind him early so that he would be aware of it.
Miaoyu raised her head and glanced at Jia Cong. Seeing that he was looking at her tenderly, she couldn't help but feel a little more happy in her heart.
"My master gave you a divination before he died. It was about your future. In the first few years, you were going smoothly, but in the next few years there was a turning point. The divination showed that your life was in danger, but in the end you were able to Turn misfortune into good fortune and become a reversal.
The master has limited energy and did not explain the hexagrams in detail. He told me the hexagrams so that I could have time to explain them to you carefully. There are some parts that I have not figured out yet and need to be considered carefully. But what is certain is that the danger Coming from the royal family, please be more careful in the future. "
Jia Cong was slightly startled by Miaoyu's words.
Unexpectedly, the royal family that he had always been loyal to was the biggest threat to him. It seemed that a few years later, he would still offend the royal family.
Jia Cong still believes in the hexagram of Teacher Tai.
However, a few years later, it was somewhat consistent with the house confiscation in the original book. Could it be that the teacher was too presumptuous and was it the case of the Jia family's house confiscation? Could it be that even if you are here, you can't change it?
Calculating the days, there are only four or five years left, which is somewhat consistent with Miaoyu's words.
I thought I could change some things with my presence, but it seems I have to eliminate hidden dangers in advance to avoid being caught off guard later.
Seeing Jia Cong frowning in deep thought, Miaoyu said: "Don't worry too much. The final outcome is that everything will turn into good luck. You will be fine. I will take the time to calculate it carefully and tell you in detail. You can do it in advance." Be prepared, the situation is much better.”
Jia Cong nodded and said: "Well, I understand. If you think these things will harm you, don't think so. I don't want you to suffer the backlash like your master, and I will feel bad for you.
Don't worry, my fate is up to me. No matter who wants to deal with me, it will not end well. "
Miaoyu was still very satisfied with Jia Cong's words. She thought about it and said, "It's just a hexagram interpretation. It won't affect me. Don't worry."
After some conversation, the two became more familiar with each other and became more harmonious with each other.
Next, with the help of Jia Cong, the teacher's funeral affairs were properly handled.
Jia Cong originally planned to take Miaoyu back to live in Ningguo Mansion, but Miaoyu wanted to stay in Muniyuan and observe mourning for her master for one year. It was said that it was the master's request, so Jia Cong had no choice but to let her do it.
I donated two thousand taels of sesame oil money to Muni Yuan. The host of Muni Yuan was very enthusiastic and promised to take good care of Miaoyu.
He also left a banknote of 10,000 taels of silver for Miaoyu and asked her to have someone go to Ningguo Mansion to find her if anything happened.
Before leaving, Miaoyu suddenly pulled her back and said, "You can come and see me when you have time, and I can explain the hexagrams to you."
Looking at Miaoyu's eyes, he knew that she was afraid that he would forget her, so he smiled softly and said: "Don't worry, I will come to see you often. If I can't see you, I will miss you."
At this time, Miaoyu does not have the aloofness and aloofness in the original work. Those are just disguises in front of outsiders to protect herself.
With Jia Cong as her support, she no longer needs to pretend to be herself. She can feel that Jia Cong is very considerate to her.
She doesn't know what love is, but she enjoys this warmth. For her, this is enough, and she wants to hold on tightly.
Seeing Jia Cong leave, Miaoyu once again returned to her noble and lonely appearance, looking like a master from this world.
······
On the way back, Qingwen said: "Master, is Miaoyu's master really so accurate in his calculations? He can even calculate his own deadline. It's really amazing. How do you plan to arrange that Miaoyu?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "I originally wanted to take her back to Ningguo Mansion. She wants to stay and observe filial piety for her master for one year, so let's fulfill her filial piety. After all, she has lived with her master since she was three years old. In fact, the two of them are more Like mother and daughter.”
Qingwen said: "Sir, can Miaoyu also tell fortunes?"
Jia Cong said: "You are right, Miaoyu has received the true inheritance from her master, and is also very proficient in innate divine arithmetic."
Qingwen said with a smile: "You have made a lot of money then. Not only do you have a beautiful young lady, but you can also predict the future and ask about good or bad luck. It's really a big profit. So what should we do? Can we also ask her to predict the future?" ?”
In ancient times, it was normal to have divination for every major event.
Whenever there was a big event, King Wen of Zhou had to do some divination first to ask about good or bad luck.
Jia Cong shook his head and said: "This hexagram is also ever-changing and not static. Fully believing in this thing will restrain us. We must believe in our own abilities and break all illusions by ourselves."
Qingwen nodded, she believed her father's words unconditionally, and she had personally experienced his abilities.
If Qingwen really admires one person in this world, then that person must be Jia Cong.
She really admired Jia Cong's ability.
"Well, I remember what you said."
Jia Cong smiled, turned to Li Biao and said, "Li Biao, arrange a few personal guards to protect Miss Miaoyu secretly near Muni Courtyard to ensure the safety of Miss Miaoyu."
Li Biao cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will arrange for a few smart people to be on guard near Muni Yuan. They will ensure the safety of Miss Miaoyu."
Jia Cong nodded, but he didn't expect that Miaoyu's master would pass away this time.
I originally wanted to go to Lin Mansion, but I can't make it. It seems I can only go tomorrow.
