Speaking of which, Ning Yu can be regarded as a lay disciple of Master Jingkong.
Master Jingkong and Bachelor Yang are close friends. Ning Yu can study in Yang's school because he has inherited Master Jingkong's favor.
Ning Wei originally wanted to go to the Guanyin Hall to offer incense, but after listening to Ning Yu's words, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
Ning Wei walked over, passed Nanny Qin, and walked forward side by side with Ning Yu.
Ning Yu said as he walked: "Awei, it's getting late today. We decided to come here at the last minute and made an appointment in advance. Whether we can do the ritual today depends on whether the master is available? What if there is something different in the temple today?
We are afraid we have to wait until tomorrow to make arrangements. In this case, we will have to stay in the temple tonight."
Ning Wei was wondering if she could stay in the temple for a night. She just came here to get some peace and quiet and take the opportunity to think about how to deal with the current situation? "I can do that, but it's just wasting my brother's time."
Ning Yu didn't know what Ning Wei was thinking, but seeing his sister's obedient response, he said softly: "It doesn't matter, I have two days off, so I have plenty of time."
Nanny Qin followed behind, listening carefully to what Ning Yu and Ning Wei said.
Ning Yu and Ning Wei went straight to Master Jingkong's courtyard. After the little novice monk informed them, he came out and led them indoors.
After both parties gave way to their seats, Grandma Qin asked someone to serve white tea, "Hello, Master, our old lady knows that Master likes tea, so we asked the old slave to bring some to Master, please have a taste."
Master Jingkong put his hands together to express his gratitude.
After Ning Yu explained his purpose to Master Jingkong, Master Jingkong turned to look at Huineng who was standing aside.
Huineng stepped forward and reported: "Master, this afternoon we will hold a prayer meeting for Mrs. Qi in Jiang Shangshu's house. This was decided a few days ago. Master has a lot to do these days...tomorrow
I can spare an hour in the morning."
Master Jingkong nodded and said: "Then I will do something for you tomorrow morning. You go down with Huineng and settle down first."
At Jiang Shangshu's house? Jiang Xiuming, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, Ning Wei was refreshed. Jiang Shangshu's mother, Mrs. Wu, was the aunt of Weiyuan Hou's wife Wu.
Ning Wei didn't expect that as soon as she came back, she would meet someone from Jiang Mansion...
Ning Yu turned his head to look at Ning Wei and saw that she was stunned. He stretched out his hand and tugged on her sleeve, indicating that she would join him in thanking Master Jingkong.
Ning Wei came back to her senses, apologized, bowed to Ning Yu to thank her, and followed Huineng out of Master Jingkong's courtyard.
Aunt Qin followed up and said with an apologetic smile: "Second Master, eldest lady, we have a yard here. The yard is always being taken care of and cleaned. We have all the necessary items for food and clothing, which is very convenient.
How about we live in our own yard today, so as not to bother the master to arrange things for us."
Huineng looked at Ning Yu, waiting for him to make a decision.
Ning Yu said: "No, I have to do evening classes with my senior brothers in the evening. It is more convenient to live in the temple."
Ning Yu's refusal was expected by Nanny Qin, and she did not want Ning Yu to live in another courtyard.
Nanny Qin turned her attention to Ning Wei, "Second Master has something to do and wants to live in the temple. Then the eldest lady can live with the old slave. After all, it is very inconvenient for the eldest lady to live in the temple."
Ning Wei looked at Huineng and asked, "Master Huineng, is it convenient for me to stay here?"
Hui Neng clasped his hands together and said: "Amitofu, the room where the old lady usually lives has always been empty. The little benefactor can live in that room without any trouble."
Mrs. Qian is a lay Buddhist and often comes to the temple to worship Buddha.
Ning Wei turned to look at the fat Nanny Qin and said, "Thank you, Nanny. Zaohua, Sangye, I, and I will stay in the room where my grandmother lived tonight. Nanny Qin took the others to live in another courtyard.
