After hearing Gu Qiong's words, Qi Hao looked at Aunt Xi with a surprised expression: "Really, Aunt Xi, if there is any difficulty in the urban construction work in the future, I will go to Aunt Xi!"

"Yes." Xi Ah didn't refuse, she said, "The province has some subsidies for the construction of flood dykes. You can come up with a plan and hand it over to me. I will be in charge of reporting for approval for you!"

"I'm worrying about the lack of funds for the [-] kilometers of flood protection embankments, won't it be solved now, thank you Aunt Xi!" Qi Hao was so happy that tears flowed out!

Gu Qiong said aside: "Mom is the inspector of the main department of the Provincial Finance Department, and she is very clear about the allocation of funds. With my mother fighting for it, you, the deputy county magistrate in charge, will suffer a lot less!"

Qi Hao said to Gu Qiong: "That's that, girl, thank you!"

Qi Hao suddenly called a girl in public, slipped his tongue, but couldn't take it back, he looked at Aunt Xi and smiled, with an embarrassed expression.

Aunt Xi looked at Qi Hao with a smile on her face and turned to Gu Qiong, and said to herself, Qi Hao already called you a girl, and she still pretended in front of me, continue to pretend, if she can't pretend anymore, she is naturally honest.

Gu Qiong deliberately did not look at her mother, overlooking the county town and Yuquan Town at the foot of the mountain.

Boss Ou heard that Qi Hao called Gu Qiong a girl, and thought that the relationship between the county magistrate Qi and Minister Gu was not ordinary, so he couldn't help worrying about his daughter.

A few people stood on the edge of the cliff for a while. Due to the high altitude and strong wind, although the sun was scorching, they felt very cool on their bodies. Aunt Xi's body was delicate. Go to the Empress Temple.

"Big sister," Ou Haicheng approached Aunt Xi and said, pointing to a piece of ruins that hadn't been completely leveled. "This place used to be Yuquan Niangniang Temple, which was famous for hundreds of miles around. It was demolished in those years. What a pity!"

Aunt Xi said: "Although I don't believe in superstition, Buddhism is another form of civilization. If everything can be passed down, there is always a reason for its existence!"

Ou Haicheng hurriedly said: "Eldest sister is right, very right. To be honest with elder sister, many people still want to restore the Yuquan Empress Temple at the original site!"

Aunt Xi didn't answer Ou Haicheng's words.Qihao said: "Qihao, didn't I just say that the development of tourism and urban construction of Yuquan Mountain must have special features for tourists to enjoy? The ancients were very good at viewing the scenery. Why did the temple be built here? Look at the area in Yuquan Town The land, the Qingjiang River flows through the middle like silk, and the distant mountains are more like a stage set. The two small towns are connected by the Qingjiang River like pearls and jade. The panoramic view of a hundred miles is so beautiful and spectacular!"

Qi Hao nodded again and again, he had to admire Aunt Xi, who integrated nature and urban construction, and had a unique insight.

Aunt Xi turned and asked Boss Ou: "You said that master, just eat fast, chant Buddhism and perform rituals in such a simple place?"

Ou Haicheng asked, and hurriedly told Aunt Xi the master's story.

After hearing this, Aunt Xi sighed: "It's not easy. Sitting in prison, living in a cave, and starving. The original intention has not changed. Decades have been like a day, and now I am determined to restore the temple. His heart and ambition are commendable!"

"Elder Sister is right!" Ou Haicheng invited, "Eldest Sister, go and see Master!"

Aunt Xi looked at the people around her and nodded. Ou Haicheng hurriedly led the way to the simple shed.

When he came to the simple shed, Ou Haicheng called softly in front of the door: "Master!"

A clear voice came from inside: "Benefactor, please come in!"

Ou Haicheng opened the curtain, and a group of people entered the shed one by one.

Although it was a temporary shed, the inside was neat and clean, which was beyond Aunt Xi's expectation. From this point, it can be seen that the master is a man of integrity.

The master enshrines the Empress Yuquan, who sits on the sutra altar and knocks wooden fish to recite sutras. A few sticks of incense are lit, and the shed is full of sandalwood fragrance.

Aunt Xi is safe when she comes. She heard from Boss Ou that the master is determined to restore the Yuquan Temple. She donated money, lit a few sticks of incense, turned around to quit, and turned to the master: "I am very impressed by Mr. Ou's experience. , I wish the master completes the good deed of restoring the Yuquan Empress Temple as soon as possible!"

The master opened his eyes: "Thank you benefactor!"

The master bowed slightly and saluted with one hand, raised his head and focused his eyes on Aunt Xi's face, surprised in his heart, and looked at the girl next to him even more horrified, and looked again, Qi Hao was behind the lady, showing a real dragon in the temple, and the blessings are as good as the sky!

Aunt Xi bowed to the master and turned to leave. The master hurriedly said, please stay behind, benefactor, and signaled Gu Qiong to stay together with her eyes.

Seeing a mystery, Aunt Xi signaled Gu Qiong to stay.

Qihao paid homage to the master that night, and the master put him on the seat and kowtowed nine times. Although he didn't believe in the emperor's theory, he was still shocked in his heart. After all, his appearance was at least close to the one portrayed by Buddhism in a certain way. The real face of the emperor, all living beings in the world, how many people can have such a coincidence!

Qihao saw the master's eyes, he called Ou Haigu and Fan Dayu out of the temporary shed, and waited for Aunt Xi and Gu Qiong outside!

Seeing that everyone retreated, the master got up and bowed to Aunt Xi and said: "The almsgiver has come to the small temple, the small temple is very prosperous, please accept the old Na's worship!"

Seeing that the master was going to give a big gift, Aunt Xi hurriedly supported her: "Master, I am just a mere tourist. I come to Yuquan Mountain occasionally to listen to Boss Ou's introduction to the master's deeds. I am curious to pay homage to the master!"

The master said: "You don't have to be polite, the benefactor, Lao Na has been here for so many years, the benefactor honors the ladies of the princes, please accept the old Na's worship!"

Aunt Xi said in her heart, old Gu was fifty-six, and was supported by Deputy Prime Minister Lin. It is entirely possible that the secretary of the ruling party of the previous province has this possibility. Did the master see this?She loosened her hands slightly, the master had already bowed to the ground, Aunt Xi hurriedly bowed to the ground, and after the bow, the two supported each other to get up.

What Aunt Xi never expected was that the master asked Gu Qiong to sit on a wooden grand master's chair with her back facing north and facing south. Gu Qiong didn't know what the master meant, so the master suddenly bowed down and bowed three times and bowed nine times.

Seeing the master salute like this, Aunt Xi suddenly realized that this is the most respectful gift to the Emperor Zhou's family. What's going on, she felt terrified in her heart and looked at a loss.

Gu Qiong was also dumbfounded, she also understood the meaning of this kind of ritual, she sat on the grand teacher's chair and didn't know why.

Aunt Xi hurriedly said, "Master, you can't do it."

Gu Qiong looked calm while sitting on the grand teacher's chair. The master stood up after bowing, and Gu Qiong seemed to wake up all of a sudden. The master was prostrating three times and nine prostrations to herself. When she reached out to help the master, the master had already stood up The body looks calm and composed.

Gu Qiong and Aunt Xi asked almost at the same time: "Master, what's going on?"

The master sat back on the sutra altar: "Young benefactor, the honor of the mother of the country, the temple is condescending, and I hope to forgive my sins!"

The honor of the mother of the country!

Aunt Xi was stunned!

Gu Qiong was stunned!

Aunt Xi looked at the master: "Master, the little girl is only a leading cadre, so don't make wild guesses!"

The master said: "donor, don't worry, only the three of us know about it."

Gu Qiong didn't believe this at first, the monk was coaxing people to play, and she asked: "The master said that I am the mother of the country, I don't even have a boyfriend, and I have decided not to marry for the rest of my life, where did the mother of the country come from?"

Aunt Xi stared at Gu Qiong, and it was difficult to stop in front of the master, and said: "Girl, don't be unreasonable in front of the master!"

"The little benefactor asked a good question." The master didn't care about Gu Qiong's unreasonableness, and said slowly, "Today, when the little benefactor entered the hall, the walls were steep and shiny, shining brightly, and then the fragrance came, and old Naton became suspicious, so Observe each person carefully, but see that the little benefactor has a beautiful and kind face, demeanor is changing, earrings are drooping, skin is like jade, eyes are piercing, and the golden light on the top of the head is not scattered, no doubt he is the mother of the country today!"

Gu Qiong looked up and looked up: "There is no golden light!"

The master said: "How can the little benefactor see it?"

Gu Qiong still wanted to talk, Aunt Xi said angrily, the girl must not be unreasonable!Then tell the master, can the master explain it in detail!

"Although the little benefactor said that the mother of the country is unquestionable, but..." the master stopped the words and closed his eyes, "Amitabha, everything depends on fate."

Aunt Xi saw that the master closed his eyes and muttered something, and knew the meaning of thanking the guests, and said: "I heard that the master is determined to restore the Yuquan Niangniang Temple. I will help me when I go back. Farewell, master!"

The master sat firmly on the sutra altar, closed his eyes and did not make a sound.

Aunt Xi tidied up her clothes, pulled Gu Qiong over to worship the master, got up and left.

As soon as she left the door, Aunt Xi whispered to Gu Qiong: "The master's words are of great importance, girl, don't tell anyone, remember."

Gu Qiong said disapprovingly: "Mom really believes it?"

Aunt Xi said: "It's one thing to believe it or not, but it's another thing that the master's words must not be leaked!"

Gu Qiong felt that her mother's words made sense. It was something that was nonsense, so what's the point of telling it.

The trainee aunt came out, and it was past noon, and the group left the top of the mountain.

Aunt Xi had never walked such a narrow and steep mountain road, and she couldn't take a step on the downhill road. She tried to take a few steps, but she couldn't do it, so she had to sit on a chair lift.

Along the way, Aunt Xi had an idea. Gu Qiong walked in front of the chair. Mother of the country, that is the phoenix among women. Does the girl really have... She couldn't believe that this would become a reality!

Yatou is beautiful, intelligent, with a very high level of mind. She comes from a wealthy family and has come into contact with many talented people. There are high-ranking official families, new aristocrats, and ordinary poor people. However, Yatou doesn't look down on any of them.

Now that the girl fell in love with Qi Hao, and she also caught the golden turtle, it should be said that it was God's will, but suddenly it turned out that the girl was the mother of the country, this is too unbelievable, could it be that Qi Hao... Aunt Xi was shocked!

Aunt Xi carefully recalled the process of getting in touch with Qi Hao. Qi Hao's ability, courage, wisdom, and appearance are nothing to say. He is in charge of Xiaoxiaoyuquan Town, and he has driven the economy of the entire county at once, and developed the economy of similar counties. How extraordinary and heroic his political achievements are, but she still can't believe that Qi Hao is connected with the king of a country.

Aunt Xi couldn't believe that Qi Hao was able to take the position, but Qi Hao couldn't take the position. Where did the girl's mother come from? Could it be that, as the girl said, Qi Hao has nothing to do with the girl?

Aunt Xi's heart is like a calm sea with a sudden storm and huge waves because of the Mother of the Nation incident! (To be continued..)
