Lin Jiabiyu

Chapter 52 Good and Bad

At the end of the year, lights and festoons are everywhere in the capital, which is very lively and festive.The Marquis of Chong'an is also full of people coming and going, and things are constantly going on.

On New Year's Eve, Mrs. Liu and Lin Wan ordered everyone in Yimei Courtyard to tidy up the yard early in the morning, and ordered people to move in all kinds of New Year's goods, and there were also things like the lady in the yard and the shopkeeper outside, the mother and daughter Busy from morning till noon.

Just after lunch, Madam Wei came in with a happy smile and saluted Mrs. Liu. "Ma'am, Wang Jiawulang is here, saying it's a New Year's gift."

Mrs. Liu was overjoyed, looked at Lin Wan with a smile, and hurriedly ordered: "Please."

Lin Wan sighed secretly, but couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.

Wang Shuo sent someone to bring in a carload of New Year's goods, because everyone was busy at the end of the year, and the Wang family had a lot of things to do, so he wanted to leave after sitting down for a while. Mrs. Liu knew that Wang's family had a lot of things to do, so she didn't want to stay any longer, so she asked Lin Wan with a smile Said: "Miss Wan, take your fifth brother of the Wang family out."

Lin Wan looked at Mrs. Liu in astonishment, then turned to Wang Shuo with bright eyes, and said with a wry smile, "Fifth Brother Wang, please..."

Wang Shuo hurriedly bowed to Mrs. Liu, glanced at Lin Wan from the corner of the eye, the smile on his face was about to fly, and he went out to the second gate in a good mood all the way.

After walking a few steps, the maids and women had already dispersed, only following the two from a distance.Wang Shuo moved slowly, his eyes swept over Lin Wan's slightly tangled face, and his heart was gradually entangled in a softness.

Seeing that the second gate was right in front of him, Wang Shuo sighed from the bottom of his heart, looked at Lin Wan with burning eyes, and said calmly and decisively, "You don't have to worry about those rumors outside." He paused.Unconsciously, she took another step forward and approached Lin Wan, her heart was gradually covered with tenderness, and she whispered softly and lovingly, "Ah Wan, don't worry, I..."

"Fifth Brother Wang!" Lin Wan blushed at the sight of Wang Shuo, so she took a step back and interrupted Wang Shuo's words, "Hurry up and go." Lin Wan's mind was in a mess.Unscrupulously urging Wang Shuo.

Wang Shuo was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, staring at Lin Wan's flushed cheeks for a long while, feeling soft and itchy in his heart, he just wanted to step forward and gently hold her hand.She is his future wife, thinking of this, Wang Shuo's heart softened.

Lin Wan was annoyed by Wang Shuo.Irritable and impatient, he stretched out his hand and pushed Wang Shuo, and said angrily with a blushing face, "You go, I'm going back." After saying that, he ignored Wang Shuo, and ran into the yard with his skirt in hand.

Wang Shuo's eyes followed Lin Wan's back all the way past the Chuihua Gate, and it took him a long time to look at his arm, and smiled softly.Feel free to leave the second door.

In an inconspicuous corner in the northwest corner of Yimei Courtyard, Lu Junzhao was hiding under the tall and thick branches.He clenched his fists, his face was blue and he gritted his teeth and stared at Wang Shuo's back for a long while with fierce eyes full of resentment.Zhou Chuan, who was hiding in the dark, stared at his master with wide eyes, and then he woke up and was shocked, and almost fell off the branch. The eyes of his master were as if he saw Beiyan tartar. Normal!

Lin Wan ran around aimlessly in the yard in a daze, waiting for the heat on her face to dissipate.My mind gradually became clearer.She never expected that Wang Shuo would say these words to her so bluntly.

He said that she didn't need to worry about the rumors outside, he was promising.It's protecting her.Lin Wan felt a little sour in her heart.It would be a lie to say that she wasn't moved, but she didn't dare to ask for that kind of affection.

"How is it?" In the hall, Mrs. Liu lost the account book and hurriedly asked Mother Wei who was entering the door.

"Wang Jiawulang never took his eyes off the girl, but he is still polite." Madam Wei covered her mouth and laughed, with some gratifying jokes in her tone. "The girl looks a little shy."

Mrs. Liu patted the table with one hand, breathed a long sigh of relief, smiled and sighed to Madam Wei: "That's how it should be."

Nanny Wei smiled and nodded.

Lin Wan was a little distracted all afternoon, and Liu Shi just smiled and said nothing. She had to say she was willing to marry her daughter.In the evening, just as it was getting dark, everyone in Yimei courtyard was busy, but the gatekeeper woman accidentally accepted the post from Cishou Temple and handed it in.

After hearing the report, Mrs. Liu was very surprised and worried, so she hurriedly read the post, and then asked the old woman who guarded the gate carefully.Hearing that the little novice from Cishou Temple was still waiting outside the door, Mrs. Liu asked her mother-in-law to invite him in. Seeing this, Mrs. Liu's heart sank again.What kind of little novice is this!He was clearly a middle-aged monk.Judging by the monk's clothing and appearance, there is a high probability that he is still a monk with a dharma name in the temple.

Mrs. Liu hurriedly went up to greet her, clasped her hands together and saluted. "Master, please come here. I don't know when the master will see the little girl."

The middle-aged monk smiled and saluted Mrs. Liu. "The master only asked the little monk to bring a sentence, saying that it would be good for the female benefactor to go to the temple to burn incense tomorrow."

Mrs. Liu hurriedly nodded her head in response, and ordered the girls to prepare a fast meal. The middle-aged monk saluted Mrs. Liu with a smile when he saw this, "Don't bother me, the little monk came out late today, so it's time to go back. The master is still waiting." The monk's reply."

Mrs. Liu had no choice but to send the middle-aged monk out respectfully, but her heart was agitated, so she asked someone to call Lin Wan.

"Isn't he a visitor? He's back now?" Lin Wan was astonished and ironic at the same time when she heard Liu's words.The old monk couldn't see anyone in front of him, and now the New Year's Eve sent someone to call her, he must be full!

"Maybe he really went out to visit." Mrs. Liu pinched Lin Wan's nose and scolded, "The master is an extraordinary man with great wisdom. Your grandmother said that he can see through the world. You should respect it too!"

After all, seeing Lin Wan's disapproving appearance, Liu rubbed the corners of her brows and sighed, and persuaded earnestly: "The master is different from ordinary people, and his vision is different. Naturally, he sees wider and farther. What's more, the master I'm over 70 this year, even for the sake of the old man, you should respect him!"

Lin Wan nodded, sighed and said with a smile: "Mother taught me a lesson, I know, I will respect the master in the future."

Satisfied, Mrs. Liu brushed Lin Wan's hair back. Thinking of Wang Shuo's look at Lin Wan, she felt both emotional and worried.

In the 24th year of Tianchen, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Marquis of Chong'an became lively before dawn.Lin Wan followed Mrs. Liu, led by his uncle Chong'an Hou Lin Zhiyuan to sacrifice to the ancestors, after offering incense, it was already dawn after busy work.

Mrs. Liu sent someone to tell Mrs. Feng about going to Cishou Temple to offer incense today, and she was thinking about it again. Just after the sacrifice, she ordered the mother-in-law to prepare the carriage and took Lin Wan to Cishou Temple.

There were two heavy snowfalls in December, and it was Chinese New Year, so there were no people on the road, and even the Cishou Temple was completely silent.Liu Shi and Lin Wan got off the car at the door, went in from Kong Kong, greeted each other, and asked people to prepare incense.Liu led Lin Wan and worshiped the Bodhisattva anxiously and doubtfully, then smiled at Kong and said, "I don't know if Master is here?"

Liao Kong's face was full of smiles as usual, he nodded and said: "The two benefactors, please come with the poor monk."

"I'm going too?" Mrs. Liu glanced at Lin Wan in surprise.

"Naturally." Liao Kong smiled, without saying much, he clasped his hands together and saluted, signaling Liu Shi and Lin Wan to leave first.

Liao Kong led Lin Wan's mother and daughter into the meditation room all the way, and then knocked on the door. When the middle-aged monk came out, Liao Kong closed the door with a smile and retreated.

"Come on, sit down." Ji Wu pointed to the kang table opposite, and smiled at Lin Wan.Lin Wan saluted and said hello first, then took off her shoes and sat on the kang. Liu looked at Lin Wan with a frown, then glanced at Ji Wu, hesitated for a moment, and then moved a little closer to the kang, beside Lin Wan Sitting down, my heart beats like a drum.

Ji Wu didn't care about Mrs. Liu, and asked the middle-aged monk to serve tea, set up the chessboard, and smiled at Lin Wan: "The chess game last time was not good, let's play another one today."

Lin Wan looked at Ji Wu suspiciously, then thought of what Mrs. Liu said, so she curled her lips and nodded, "Master, please advise."

Mrs. Liu stared blankly at the chessboard, feeling even more puzzled, but she couldn't speak, and could only sit in a disturbed state.

The two of them went down for more than half an hour.

Ji Wu looked at the chessboard and nodded towards Lin Wan. "It's better than last time." After speaking, he turned his gaze to Mrs. Liu, and said a few plain words: "Little benefactor's life is extremely precious, but it's not appropriate to make a marriage early."

Seeing Ji Wu looking over, Mrs. Liu sat upright, but was shocked when she heard this, and then thanked Ji Wu with mixed feelings.

"Thank you, Master, for your guidance. It's just about the little girl's marriage..." Mrs. Liu paused, then asked in a bit of embarrassment, "When will it be?"

"The time has not come, so wait patiently." After Ji Wu said this, he stopped chewing, and asked the middle-aged monk to put away the chessboard, which meant a bit of thanking the guest.Seeing this, Mrs. Liu hurriedly got up and wanted to leave. Lin Wan frowned and glanced at Ji Wu, and whispered to Mrs. Liu, "Mom, go first, I want to say a few words to Master."

Mrs. Liu looked at Ji Wu and then at the determination in Lin Wan's eyes, so she had to leave first.

"Master, can you see my fate clearly?" Lin Wan suppressed her smile as soon as Mrs. Liu left, frowning with suspicion and contempt, and asked Ji Wu.

Ji Wu looked at Lin Wan with a smile, his eyes were clear and energetic. "Twin life, I can't see clearly."

Lin Wan was extremely astonished, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she looked at Ji Wu with fear and amazement.

Ji Wu, however, just sipped his tea in silence, with a calm look, as if he didn't notice the shock in Lin Wan's eyes at all.

Lin Wan suppressed the turbulent waves in her heart, stared at Ji Wu for a while, and then heaved a sigh of relief, and asked hesitantly, "Master, can you understand what's going on in this world?"

"Even you and I can't see clearly, how can we understand the world's affairs?" Ji Wu smiled softly, the wrinkles on his face were crowded together, but he didn't look old, but had a bit of wisdom accumulated over the years. "It doesn't matter if you can see clearly, or you can't understand, just let things take their course."

"But Master said something like that, is this still called letting nature take its course?" Lin Wan replied a little depressed.

Ji Wu stared at Lin Wan for a long while, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Well, you are right, I am in trouble. People are like this, thinking too much in their hearts, and instead lose the true nature of things."

Lin Wan opened her mouth, but she couldn't argue, so she had to leave and leave the room.

Ji Wu looked at Lin Wan's figure and sighed lightly, his favor was repaid. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
