Half of the door in the yard was pushed aside, and the door that was knocked down was thrown out by Manager Cao. The servants of the Cheng family stood outside the door, looking at the unkind Manager Cao and others in front of the door, and then looked at them as they walked in.
Mr. Cheng in the courtyard felt like the wind was blowing and the water was cold.
As he walked past the row of men in the Zhou family who were holding sticks and staring at them eagerly, Mr. Cheng suddenly felt like he was alone in the enemy's battle. Although he had never been on the battlefield, he had read about it when he was studying, and it must have been this feeling.
But then he sighed.
This is his home! What an enemy! He is the king of his home!
Mr. Cheng stood in the courtyard and looked at the woman who was already sitting on the porch.
Banqin held up the handkerchief, and Cheng Jiaoniang put the bow and arrow aside and took it to wipe her hands and sweat.
Mr. Cheng hesitated for a moment, then walked and sat on the porch.
She is beautiful, eloquent, good at archery, any one of these is enough to make people look at her, let alone all of them together.
"Are you really well?" he asked, looking at the woman in front of him.
"Ask me or you?" Cheng Jiaoniang asked.
Mr. Cheng was stunned for a moment, so is his mind still unclear?
"If you ask me, of course I know I'm fine." Cheng Jiaoniang said, "As for whether you know or not, I don't know."
This was said in a vague way, it seemed quite simple and there was something in it... It should be good and not too neat...
Master Cheng twisted his beard and frowned.
"Did the Zhou family cure you?" he asked.
Cheng Jiaoniang smiled without saying anything and picked up the bow and arrow. The male servants outside the courtyard gate suddenly became commotion... Although there was no arrow, it would not look good if the eldest man was hit all over the head and face.
"You want to kick me out?" Cheng Jiaoniang asked.
"Why do we say I'm kicking you out?" Mr. Cheng said, coughing slightly, "I'm just moving to another place to live."
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded.
"However, I don't want to change my home just yet," she said.
Mr. Cheng was speechless.
What does she mean she doesn't want to? Does she just have to do whatever she doesn't want?
Who calls the shots in this house?
"You have the final say as to who makes the decision in this house." Cheng Jiaoniang smiled slightly and wiped the bowstring with a handkerchief, making a muffled sound. "However, I don't plan to change my place to live just yet."
This doesn’t mean it’s not said yet!
"No, we have to change places." Banqin suddenly thought of something and said quickly.
This girl...
Master Cheng looked at her and saw this maid who suddenly interrupted and had a different opinion from Cheng Jiaoniang, but Cheng Jiaoniang didn't look unhappy at all.
Mrs. Cheng said that this girl was trained by the Zhou family, and everything Cheng Jiaoniang did and said was behind her back. Is that true?
"This house is cold and cold, we want to change it to a sunny one." Banqin said.
"There is also one facing the street, which is convenient for going out." Manager Cao also said, "It would be best to have a separate house, and it can be convenient for us to serve as errands."
Is it convenient for you to serve on errands? Is it convenient for you to fight and cause trouble at any time?
Mr. Cheng looked at them and sneered.
"Now that you're well and you've read the family tree, you must know who you are, right?" He looked at Cheng Jiaoniang and said.
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded.
"Then whose words do you listen to?" Mr. Cheng asked in a deep voice.
Cheng Jiaoniang smiled.
"Of course I listen to myself." She said with a smile, raising her hand to stop Mr. Cheng from speaking, "Don't worry, I will leave by myself when it's time to leave."
After saying that, he looked at Mr. Cheng and smiled slightly.
"Besides, I didn't live in your house in vain."
The more he heard these words, the more awkward he became. Mr. Cheng frowned and looked at the woman in front of him.
"Are you really Cheng Jiaoniang?" he asked suddenly.
Cheng Jiaoniang's smile became even stronger.
"Are you really the one who calls the shots in this family?" she asked.
This was a sarcastic statement, and Mr. Cheng could certainly hear it, and his face became even more ugly.
"You will know soon," he said in a deep voice, standing up, "I live wherever I am. You can move to the Taoist temple today. I will pick you back when my house is ready for you."
"Seriously?" Cheng Jiaoniang looked at him and asked.
Mr. Cheng looked like he didn't even bother to say anything and turned around to leave.
Manager Cao waited for the Zhou family's entourage to tense up, and with just a look from Cheng Jiaoniang, he knocked the old boy to the ground.
But until Mr. Cheng walked out of the courtyard, Cheng Jiaoniang didn't even look at him.
The servants of the Cheng family outside the door all breathed a sigh of relief, and although Mr. Cheng didn't show it on his face, he also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, with a chill on his back.
Okay, okay, not too crazy, not shooting an arrow in the back.
So it’s good to have an agreement. At least you know how to respect elders and juniors. If you are a fool and don’t understand, you will really dare to do whatever you want.
Mr. Cheng stopped and looked back. In the yard, the woman was sitting on the porch, lowering her head, wiping and twisting the bowstring.
"Master."
Along with the footsteps, a woman called.
Mr. Cheng turned around and saw a Taoist nun. He was stunned for a moment before he recognized who it was.
"Madam asked me to come," Guanzhu Sun said.
Did it come too soon? But he didn’t care, Mr. Cheng nodded.
"Go ahead and take her away," he said.
Take her away?
Guanzhu Sun was surprised. Are these people going to drive this true god out again? That would be great! She wanted to offer it to him day and night.
She hurriedly saluted, raised her feet and went inward.
"Master, if these people don't want to leave and cause trouble..." the servant on the side couldn't help but whisper.
"Making trouble?" Mr. Cheng frowned, a little annoyed, "Whose family is this? Our family is still afraid that a few of them will make trouble? We have turned against them!"
The servants responded hurriedly.
Mr. Cheng was silent for a moment.
"Gather everyone together," he finally said.
So in fact, the master was also afraid... Of course, the servant would never dare to reveal this suspicion to the outside world, so he hurried away in response.
It’s really embarrassing! Mr. Cheng exhaled and turned around again. He couldn’t help but be startled. The fairy girl in the yard was paying homage to the woman...
Paying homage to a grand ceremony?
She saw that she had not paid such a grand tribute...
"Madam, you are back..." Sun Guanzhu leaned over and spoke with a choked voice.
In total, I have only been with this woman for a month or two, but in my heart I feel like I have been a lifelong relative.
Nowadays, Xuanmiao Guan has gained a solid reputation in Jiangzhou and even further afield. She is not the kind of Taoist priest who only relies on selling words. She also has the confidence to go out to meet people and preach the scriptures. But when she heard that
The moment this lady came back, she still felt as at ease as a child alone at home does when his family walks into the house.
I just felt like this on the way here. When I really saw this lady, Sun Guanzhu could no longer control her emotions. She lay on the ground and the more she thought about it, the more she wanted to cry, and then she really cried.
If those believers saw this scene, their jaws would drop in shock.
Banqin looked at the patron with some curiosity. She had already left the Cheng family when she met Cheng Jiaoniang, so she didn't recognize him, but she had already heard about it from her maid and Qingmei, so she was not a stranger.
And when he heard that thunder and fire struck the Taoist temple that day, the temple owner immediately brought people to put out the fire, which shows that he is indeed a kind-hearted person.
Banqin likes people who are kind to my wife, so she turned around to get a hot towel and tea.
"Thank you so much, girl." Guanzhu Sun wiped his tears and stood up, saying his thanks hurriedly.
Banqin smiled sweetly at her.
"Madam, you look much better now." Sun Guanzhu wiped away his tears and said while calming down.
"Everything will get better and better." Cheng Jiaoniang said, looking at Guanzhu Sun and smiling slightly, "The same goes for Fairy Girl."
Sun Guanzhu felt like crying again. It was strange. She was old enough to be this girl's grandmother, but she couldn't help but lose her temper in front of this girl. It was as if she was a granddaughter who needed to rely on, and had received the support of a kind grandmother.
Praise.
"It's all given by my wife." She saluted and said.
"Master, you're welcome." Cheng Jiaoniang shook her head and smiled, "You got this all by yourself and it has nothing to do with me."
"No, no, without my lady's help and advice, we wouldn't be where we are today." Guanzhu Sun said hurriedly.
"It's my business to reach out to help and give advice, and whether you can catch it and understand it is your own business." Cheng Jiaoniang said, gently pushing the tea in front of her and smiling slightly, "So, this
You got it yourself, it was not given to you by anyone, and you don’t owe it to anyone.”
Guanzhu Sun raised his hand to wipe away his tears and smiled.
"Yes, madam, I don't owe anyone." She said, looking at Cheng Jiaoniang, "I just thank fate for allowing me to meet madam."
Cheng Jiaoniang smiled without saying anything and extended her hand for tea.
Guanzhu Sun nodded his thanks and had tea and snacks.
"Madam, are they going to kick you out again?" she asked, "Madam over there, don't worry, it's been cleaned every day, the earthworms have already arisen, and it's very warm and not damp."
"I still have something to do, so I won't go live there." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
Guanzhu Sun was a little disappointed, but he still said yes.
"Then you should go over and take a look at it when you are free," she said.
"Okay." Cheng Jiaoniang nodded and said.
When Guanzhu Sun left the Cheng family and returned to Xuanmiao Temple, several disciples were looking forward to it.
"Master, Master, have you seen Mrs. Cheng?"
"Master, Master, will Mrs. Cheng come and stay?"
Everyone immediately surrounded Guanzhu Sun and asked all kinds of questions.
Guanzhu Sun answered each one with a calm smile.
"Their family really wants to drive my wife to live here," she said, "but my wife can't say it."
"Ah, what should we do?" A disciple couldn't help but asked worriedly, "What should I do if they insist on driving my wife out?"
Guanzhu Sun smiled.
"That's easy to do." She said, flicking her fly whisk, and looked up at the mountain, "It's like this little Xuanmiao Temple, just with a different name."
Like Xiao Xuan Miao Guan? Change its name? What name should it change?
The disciples were confused.
"Master, you are always so vague when preaching to outsiders, and now you are like this when talking to us." A child couldn't help but muttered.
Guanzhu Sun laughed, reached out and hit the child on the head with a whisk.
"Okay, hurry up and do your homework." She said with a solemn expression, "It's better to have it than to have it yourself. Ultimately, you have to rely on yourself to rely on heaven and earth. If you want to stand firm, you must study hard, otherwise,
Even if God favors you, you can't catch it or keep it."
The disciples also responded hurriedly and solemnly.
When the Xuanmiao Guan lessons began, the atmosphere in the Cheng family yard was a little tense.
Manager Cao looked away from the door.
"Madam, we are surrounded outside." He said, "But don't be afraid, one of us can fight ten of them, what about? Let's fight now?" (To be continued)
