248 The Master of Prophecy(1/2)

"Little cousin, what's wrong with you?" Meng Shu gently pushed her, "Are you stunned? Hanchan Temple is such a solemn and serious place. When you go in later, you will follow me. Don't talk nonsense, otherwise you will be scolded by the little monk here."

"knew."

Just as they were talking, the temple gate was slowly opened.

A little novice cliché folded his hands together and bowed to them.

"I wonder what the two donors are?"

Meng Shu said: "I am a girl from the Meng family. My mother is already waiting for me inside. I also ask the little master to help me lead the way."

"Then please ask the two donors to follow me."

Only by entering Hanchan Temple can you feel what a truly solemn and solemn atmosphere is. When you are in the temple, you can’t help but feel a kind of respect that makes people dare not be arrogant.

The little novice monk led them to a quiet room.

"Please wait here for two donors. Mrs. Meng is still talking to the abbot in the front hall and will be back in a while."

The wing room was cleaned very clean, and there was almost no trace of dust.

"Are there many wing rooms here?" Chen Biyue asked.

"There are so many, so many are countless, otherwise do you think the title of National Temple is called for nothing? In the past, when the royal family came to the temple, there were dozens of people, plus the maids and nanny who were accompanying him, there were so many people, so they couldn't sleep in the yard."

"It's not easy for the people in the temple to clean every room."

"Little cousin, you are so naive. Do you think the money you can get in Hanchan Temple every year is less? It is more than enough to just make a little bit of money and hire someone to clean it. The monks and novice in this temple have at least hundreds of people, so cleaning the wing room is a breeze."

After a while, someone pushed the door in. He looked pretty, gentle and dignified, and looked exactly two extremes from Meng Shu.

When she saw Chen Biyue, a complicated emotion flashed across her face. She quickly stepped forward and looked up and down at her.

"Mom, why are you like my dad? When you see my little cousin, you can't take your eyes open. You are staring at people so straight, and you are not afraid of being embarrassed." Meng Shu originally wanted to introduce Chen Biyue, but in this way her mother looked, she didn't need any introduction at all. It would be better to just joke.

Chen Biyue spoke first: "I have met my second aunt."

"You are Aru's daughter." Mrs. Meng couldn't help but smile, "I didn't expect that after so many years, Aru's daughter has grown so big and beautiful, just like your mother back then."

"My grandma, I clearly agreed to come and pray for blessings. You always talk about what you did before." Meng Shu woke up Mrs. Meng with one word. She put away her nostalgia and sighs, and took Chen Biyue's hand to sit down at the table.

"You have just returned to Chen Mansion. Are you still adapting to your life there?"

"My grandfather took good care of me, and the food and clothing cost was the same as other siblings."

When Mrs. Meng heard this, she felt something was wrong, "You are the legitimate daughter of the Shen family, so it is natural that you have better food, clothing and expenses." She felt that she was too straightforward, so she said lightly, "Then is your father good to you?"

Chen Biyue lowered her eyes and said lightly: "My father has been very busy recently and often runs out. Even the wife rarely meets her. It's great that we children don't cause trouble to our father and make him worry."

"Little cousin, you are so obedient and consider everything for others. I don't think your sisters are good things."

"Ashu! How did I teach you? Don't interrupt when others speak." Mrs. Meng glared at her eyes, and Meng Shu pouted in discontent and stopped talking.

Mrs. Meng turned her head and said to Chen Biyue: "What are your child saying? It is natural for parents to care about their children. What should or shouldn't be it?"

In fact, Mrs. Meng could vaguely guess Chen Biyue’s current situation from her words and Meng Shu’s attitude, which shows that she was unwilling to talk more, so she could only sigh and stop mentioning it.

"We didn't go to see you in Fengshui Prefecture during your years. Shen Jiafei said you need to rest well, and he also sent you portraits from time to time. They looked pretty well recuperated, so he didn't doubt it. Later, something like that happened, and the old man felt regretful."

"Portrait?" She grabbed the point and asked in confusion.

"I just hired a painter to paint you, including those who pick flowers, feed fish, and drink tea. I look very comfortable. Although the old man also thinks that it is extremely inappropriate for you to go to Fengshui Prefecture, I think that your father has married another woman and returned home. Even if you go back, I am afraid it will not be so safe, so it is better to leave it outside the home."

"I understand, second aunt, can I see those portraits?"

"The portrait is kept in the mansion. If you want to see it, you can come at any time, but you may have to go to the old man to get it, and the portrait is all on his side."

"Okay, I haven't officially visited all the elders yet. If I have time to go to the door a little bit another day, I will definitely visit you."

"I have already agreed with the abbot that we will go to the main hall to pray for blessings tomorrow. Let A Shu take you around the temple first. You have just come back and haven't come to the temple to see you. I have some things to do. I will come to have dinner with you later."

When she heard that Mrs. Meng was leaving, Meng Shu couldn't hide her smile.

"Ashu, I warn you not to take people everywhere to make trouble. This is Hanchan Temple, so you can't let it go."

"My grandma, I'm all a teenager, not an ignorant child." The excited smile had been dispersed before it could emerge. Meng Shu curled her lips, "Hanchan Temple is so big, I'm afraid I can't finish it in a day. Let's catch insects and see birds. Is this okay?"

Mrs. Meng looked disappointed and wanted to knock her head, but she suddenly dodged away.

"Look at others, they are generous, dignified and quiet, and they are the girls of wealthy families at first glance. Then look at yourself, they are jumping up and down all day long, like a monkey, how can they get married in the future."

Meng Shu flashed behind Chen Biyue and showed her head, "My mother, I'm still so young, you want me to get married, so I won't marry you. I will marry you to serve my parents-in-law. Judging from people's faces, I don't care about such things."

Mrs. Meng was almost angry, "What stupid things are you saying? Which girl doesn't want to get married? If you want to get married, you have to see if others can look down on you."

"Hmph, I don't like me, but I don't like others."

Chen Biyue felt helpless and funny, and quickly said to Mrs. Meng: "Second aunt, my cousin is so kind. The more you talk about her, the more she will not listen. When I go to the temple later, I will definitely advise her. If you have something to do, go and do it first, so as not to delay the main business."

Meng Shu wanted to say something else, but Chen Biyue secretly pinched her hand and closed her mouth obediently.

Mrs. Meng felt relieved when she heard this, and glared at Meng Shu again, "Although A Shu is your cousin, she is still the same as a child, so I'll ask you."

"Don't worry, my second aunt."

After Mrs. Meng left, Meng Shu hummed a few dissatisfiedly.

"Little cousin, you were just talking to my mother. It's rare that I like you so much."

"If I don't say that, I'm afraid my cousin will still be entangled with my second aunt now. Does my cousin still like to argue with my second aunt? If I like it, I'll call my second aunt back now." After saying that, she acted as a show of leaving, Meng Shu hurriedly grabbed her.

"What are you asking her to come back to do? Let's go for a good walk. I used to come with my grandmother and I'm so familiar with it that I can't be more familiar with it. You have to follow me." He pulled her out and ignored what she was still saying just now.

Chen Biyue smiled softly and did not tell her that she had been here, but the experience was not so pleasant, and it was even the beginning of her life's suffering in her previous life.

Looking at the strange but quiet scenery around, there were still little novice monks coming and going from time to time. When they saw them, they just raised their hands and bowed with one hand, and did not dare to look at them. They lowered their heads and greeted them and left in a hurry.

Meng Shu stared at the little novice fan fled in panic and couldn't help laughing.

"Little cousin, look at the little novice monk's face, it seems to be red."

"Since my cousin likes the little novice monk so much, I'll choose a little novice monk to marry in the future. No matter how you say that the novice monk from Hanchan Temple is innocent, and he is clean and self-disciplined. He has never been infected with women. He is calm and patient, and it is very consistent with his cousin's personality."

Meng Shu reached out to pinch her, "I don't like any monk. You are so unkind, little cousin, I plan to help you steal Prince Yu as your husband. You're fine, thinking about finding me a bald monk."

Chen Biyue chuckled and avoided, "Don't talk nonsense, cousin, it's not good to hear it."

"What's wrong? I see the whole of Daning, only Prince Yu's appearance is enough to match you."

"My cousin praised me for being pretty, don't overestimate me."

"What are you afraid of? Could it be that you can be heard by others?" Even though that was said, Meng Shu turned her head and looked around. Her cautious eyes were really afraid that someone would hide in the dark and eavesdrop.

Chen Biyue smiled and shook her head, but accidentally saw two monks walking towards her, wearing brown monk's robe and arhat shoes of the same color on her feet, as if she was talking about something, slowly walking towards them, one of them was a little familiar.

Meng Shu hurriedly pulled Chen Biyue and hid behind the bushes on the side, just like she was hiding from the guards in Tianhui Palace. It would be fine if she didn't hide, but she would easily be considered a sneaky person when she hides.

"Don't make a sound." Meng Shu said in a low voice, staring at the two people walking over.

"Senior Brother Huixian, your Zen method is really good today. In my opinion, it can be compared with Senior Brother Liuhe."

"I can't compare with Senior Brother Liuhe's attainments. Junior Brother, you have been too rewarded."

"Senior Brother Huixian doesn't have to be so humble. In fact, the Zen methods of Senior Brother and Senior Brother Liuhe have their own profound meanings, which are good things that make people feel that they are very beneficial."

Huixian smiled modestly, her eyes flashed suddenly, and she looked at the grass on one side.

"Who is hiding there?"

"come out!"

"Junior brother, someone broke into the temple and asked the brothers to come and catch people together."

Meng Shu suddenly stood up and stared at Huixian, "Monkey Huixian, aren't you going to call someone? Go, I see how your Hanchan Temple can do me!"

"There is no way to hurt people in the temple. Even if the thief is caught, it will be transferred directly to the government. But does the donor really want me to do this? I heard that your mother is here, and if it is transmitted to her, it will be bad."

Huixian is not very old, about twenty years old, and she is pretty and handsome, and is much more handsome than the monks.

"Every time, except for using my mother to threaten people, what else can you do, a stinky monk!"

The other little monk also knew Meng Shu, so he did not make any noise to disturb him, but just stood quietly aside.

Chen Biyue sighed and stood up as she looked over. Huixian looked over and raised her eyebrows unaware.

"I just don't want to see a hypocritical and inhuman monk like you. I really don't understand how a national temple like Hanchan Temple would recruit people like you." Meng Shu took Chen Biyue's hand and left, "Let's go, little cousin, the air here is so bad, let's go to the other end."

"Wait a minute." Huixian called out, and saw that they ignored them at all, so she rushed forward two steps, but Meng Shu walked quickly and disappeared in an instant.

"Senior Brother Huixian, you won't want to quarrel with Donor Meng, right?" She looked so disliked you very much. The little monk didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence.

Huixian looked at the direction where they disappeared and shook her head, "It's okay, let's go."

After walking a long way, Meng Shu stopped.

"Cousin, who was that person just now?"

"You don't know him, he is a very annoying person. I have never liked him since I was a child."

"You said just now that he was hypocritical and inhumane, why?"

"Did you hear him talk about Liuhe just now? He and Liuhe are the two people I hate the most in Hanchan Temple. In addition to being Zen masters who are proficient in Buddhism, they can also predict the life and death charts of people."

"prophecy?"
