Miao Zhu's mother-in-law had a sullen face and walked in step by step facing the three of them.
The young woman whom she called Wutong was now trembling with fear.
But she still reluctantly raised her smiling face and said to her mother-in-law, "Mother-in-law, you, you just heard wrong, I, I am..."
Although compared with those three people, Miao Zhu's mother-in-law looks like a somewhat skinny old lady.
But the aura around her body was very powerful, and with just a glance of her eyes, the couple almost became frightened and their legs twisted.
"You think I'm old, deaf and blind? Wutong, from the first day I brought you in, I warned you to be in awe of the Poseidon, but how did you do it?"
Miao Zhu's mother-in-law's question was loud and clear, but Wutong, who had a ghost in his heart, did not dare to answer her words at all.
"Mother-in-law! Mother-in-law! It was just a misunderstanding. You, you really heard wrong!"
"Kneel down!" .??.
As a result, Miao Zhu's mother-in-law shouted loudly, Wutong subconsciously knelt down, and there was a "dong" sound. Even Lin Mengya felt that this should be quite painful.
As for the remaining couple, since they were not from the Tanah Lot Temple, Granny Miaozhu just ignored them.
But the couple didn't dare to leave.
Tanah Lot Temple has a transcendent status in Harbor City, and as the actual manager, Miao Zhu’s prestige and power are definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people.
It is precisely because Wutong is the next candidate for temple blessing that they believe her lies.
Now that they were caught by Miao Zhu's mother-in-law, the couple felt a hundred regrets in their hearts.
If this matter spreads out, how can they gain a foothold in Harbor City in the future? Just when the two of them wanted to beg Miao Zhu's mother-in-law to show her favor, Miao Zhu's mother-in-law suddenly said: "Thailand Temple does not welcome such falsified people.
Daughter, let’s go with your sacrifice.”
There was not a single word of superfluous words in the temple's wish to the mother-in-law.
But the couple was so frightened that their faces turned pale.
If Ji Li and his daughter are both kicked out, how can the couple survive?
The two kept begging Miao Zhu's mother-in-law to give them a chance.
But Miao Zhu’s mother-in-law’s attitude was very firm.
Wutong, whom they regarded as their savior, was trembling all over and did not dare to say a word.
In the end, the woman almost fainted from tears.
The man's eyes were red. He raised his head suddenly, stared at Wutong, and suddenly said fiercely: "In the final analysis, this matter is also Miss Wutong's fault. If Miao Zhu's mother-in-law refuses to let us go, then we will too
By dragging her into the water, can the mother-in-law of Miao Zhu also watch her descendant be destroyed?"
There was nothing he could do.

The maritime business has been sluggish in recent years, and his family's financial resources are not sufficient. The people who have been passed down to him for several generations are already at the end of their tether.
Even if the couple tried their best, they could barely survive.
If not, they wouldn't have such crooked thoughts.
So now he is willing to go all out, even if he pulls Wutong into trouble, he still wants to keep his daughter and reputation!
Seeing the mother-in-law praying in the temple and not talking, the man suddenly felt hopeful!
So he redoubled his efforts and continued to threaten.
"Miss Wutong can be said to be your only heir. Now that you are old, if she is gone, you will have no time to find a suitable heir. Are you willing to watch your life's hard work go to waste?
?”
Miao Zhu's mother-in-law turned her head to look at the man expressionlessly.
"What do you want?"
The man didn't expect that he actually made the right bet! So, he changed his previous sluggishness and suddenly became energetic.
"Since we, the couple, have chosen to cooperate with Miss Wutong, we are not considered outsiders. So, as long as my mother-in-law turns a blind eye and lets my daughter become the substitute of the Poseidon Empress."
He glanced at Lin Mengya proudly, as if he was laughing at her for falling short.
Look!
Or they are more powerful as a couple.
"If you destroy that Yue Liu Jin again and declare our portrait to be the leader, then what happened today will rot in my stomach forever and no one else will know."
Lin Mengya only felt that this person was probably dreaming?
Sure enough, when Miao Zhu's mother-in-law heard these words, her expression gradually changed from calm at first to disgust.
"According to your opinion, you want me to join you in committing fraud?"
The man just rubbed his hands and said warmly: "That's not what I said. You have been guarding this temple all your life. You should enjoy happiness when you get old. Fortunately, this Wutong girl is capable. From now on,
Your old man will definitely not be short of money."
Miao Zhu's mother-in-law just looked at the other party coldly, and then turned to Wutong who was kneeling on the ground.
"You think so too?"
But Wutong did not dare to speak. She only knelt down lower.
Miao Zhu's mother-in-law suddenly sneered, no longer hiding the disgust in her eyes, and looked at the man coldly.
"I have been in charge of the Poseidon Temple for more than fifty years, and I am extremely devoted to the Poseidon.
, I have never dared to deceive in the slightest. Just because this is the god who protects our sea people and is the foundation of our sea people."
"Now you are going to destroy the centuries-old reputation of the Temple of the Sea just for those silver coins. I tell you the truth, as long as I am alive, I will not allow this kind of thing to happen in the Temple of the Sea!"
Lin Mengya almost applauded Miao Zhu's mother-in-law.
In fact, she can see that Miao Zhu’s mother-in-law’s belief in the Poseidon is very sincere. ??
Therefore, Miao Zhu's mother-in-law will never allow this kind of thing to happen, because once a hole is opened, can everything in the future be decided by money?
So for those believers who believe in Poseidon, is this their spiritual destination, or is it another abyss full of dirty desires?
Wutong kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, but the temple's mother-in-law never let go.
When the couple heard this, they also understood that there was no room for change in the matter, so they secretly made up their minds.
Since they can’t get it, destroy it!
"Hmph! Since Mother-in-law Miao Zhu is so insistent, don't blame us for being unkind! Madam, let's go."
"Please do it." Until the end, Miao Zhu's mother-in-law's attitude was still very tough.
The couple was so angry that they couldn't do anything.
But from now on, I'm afraid they will already hate the temple congratulatory mother-in-law, and there will definitely be very unpleasant rumors spread.
Lin Mengya is very experienced in this regard.
This kind of person is actually the type that he can't get, and no one else can even think of getting.
However, Miao Zhu's mother-in-law still has to suffer from rumors at such an old age, and she doesn't know if she can survive it.
"Girl." Miao Zhu's mother-in-law suddenly turned to Lin Mengya and the others.
Lin Mengya immediately stepped forward and supported Miao Zhu's mother-in-law.
Miao Zhu's mother-in-law looked a little tired, but her eyes looking at Wutong showed a bit of disappointment and loneliness.
"Today's events"
Miao Zhu's mother-in-law just opened her head, but Wutong, who had been trembling with fear, suddenly raised his head.
"Master, is it true that no matter how much I beg you today, you will never forgive me?"
Miao Zhu's mother-in-law was interrupted by her, she frowned and said, "It's your own fault that makes you miserable."
"But am I just doing it for myself?" Wutong's eyes were bloodshot and he stared at Miao Zhu's mother-in-law.
Lin Mengya felt something was not right, so she quietly gave Mrs. Jing a signal.
Here, every word of Wutong says
#Every time verification appears, please do not use incognito mode!
It feels like a heart-piercing pain.
"You raised me from a young age and taught me so many things, so I thought that no matter what, I had to let you have a worry-free old age. But, all of this requires money!"
"You are so pedantic! You keep a lot of money every year but refuse to use it. I can only use my own methods to make money and be filial to you. Isn't it wrong?"
But Miao Zhu's mother-in-law just calmly exposed her hypocrisy.
"It's my business that I don't need it. I'm afraid you think I should be used by you, so you've been dissatisfied with me for a long time, right? The money was donated to the Poseidon Temple by the sea dwellers, and it belongs to the Poseidon Empress.
What does this thing have to do with you and me?"
"Ha! Poseidon! That's just a clay statue!"
As soon as these words were said, not to mention the temple blessing mother-in-law, even Lin Mengya frowned.
Regardless of whether there are gods or not in this world, this Poseidon statue never refers to a specific person.
It is a belief and a symbol.
The role of spirit is powerful, but it also needs a carrier.
Therefore, regardless of whether the Tanah Lot Temple is efficacious or not, as long as it exists in the hearts of the sea people and can give them the courage to brave the wind and waves and move forward, it is not just a statue of a god.
Therefore, Wutong's words essentially deny this simple and sincere belief.
This is definitely not what a temple blessing should say.
"Shut up!" Miao Zhu's mother-in-law almost fainted from anger at these words.
But I don’t know whether Wutong broke the jar or dropped it, or deliberately provoked Miao Zhu’s mother-in-law. Instead, she said one sentence after another: "Am I wrong? This is just a clay statue, but you dress her in silk every year.
Satin, and even gold foil on her body! But what about us?"
"We can only hold on to the pitiful little money. We have nothing left except food and drink."
"I've had enough of this kind of life, I don't want to go on living it any longer!"
The last sentence was what Wutong was thinking.
But in fact, they don't have to buy food or drinks in Tanah Lot Temple, and people donate a lot of money to them every year. In fact, the two of them live quite a prosperous life.
It's a pity that some people are not satisfied and are blinded by the glitz.
"I also want to wear gold and silver! I also want to be like that clay statue, covered in silk and satin! Me"
At this moment, Mrs. Jing suddenly raised her head and looked up.
At the same time, she also stretched out her hand to pull Lin Mengya and Granny Miao Zhu in front of her.
With a "crash", a piece of the high roof suddenly collapsed!
