Zhang had never expected that even though she had sent offerings so courteously and politely, the attitude of the Cihang Temple would be so arrogant.

Ever since she married Pei Xiao, few people dared to treat her like this.

What's more, he was not a big shot, but just a receptionist at a rural Taoist temple.

At this moment, she finally understood why Nanny Liu had a conflict with Cihang Temple as soon as she arrived. It was really the Taoist nuns here who were so arrogant and rude!

She couldn't help but show a bit of displeasure on her face.

Qing Liu, who was standing next to him, thought he was the best at reading people's expressions, and immediately scolded him:

"How dare you be so rude to Madam Bo!"

Seeing this, Nanny Li's face turned cold. She walked forward and slapped Qingliu hard on the face, then turned to Zhang and said:

"Madam, have you forgotten what we are here for today? You brought such an arrogant and rude girl with you!"

Qingliu was Zhang's maid, and this slap was not much different from hitting Zhang directly in the face.

But Qingliu was too reckless, which gave Nanny Li a handle on her. In order to prevent Nanny Li from talking nonsense to Zhang Jinghong when she returned, Zhang had to swallow her anger.

She looked at Qingliu unkindly:

"Why don't you apologize to the Taoist priest?"

Qingliu felt very aggrieved, but had to obey.

"I'm sorry, Taoist priest. I am the one who offended you!"

Huiyun did not comment:

"Wait a moment, I'll go ask the abbot for instructions."

After saying that, he quickly went to the East Garden.

After knocking on the door, she immediately reported what happened in the main hall in a concise manner.

Chen Qingzhu was a little surprised at first that it was Zhang who came in person.

On second thought, it doesn't seem surprising.

The Jingnan Marquis's Mansion can now be returned to the capital, so the so-called confinement in these last few days will naturally not be too strict.

Zhang has always loved to act, so how could she miss such a good opportunity to show her motherly kindness?

Moreover, Zhang must not be willing to let Pei Jin be truly cured.

He should also be planning to take the opportunity to offend Cihang Temple even more, completely cut off Pei Jin's chance of receiving treatment, and make the Zhang family's direct branch hate Cihang Temple as well.

It's a good plan.

Since Zhang loves to act so much, it would be disrespectful if she did not provide her with a perfect stage to perform.

Thinking of this, Chen Qingzhu couldn't help but smile:

"Since Madam Bo is here, we certainly can't let her make a wasted trip."

"Huiyun, go tell them that the Marquis' Mansion has finally come to their senses and has sent the arsonist to apologize. The Cihang Temple is also willing to accept the apology from the Marquis' Mansion of Jingnan."

Huiyun was very surprised and puzzled:

"Does the Master intend to forgive the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion just like that?"

Chen Qingzhu pretended to be noble and said:

"Of course, we outsiders should be magnanimous."

As Huiyun looked increasingly puzzled, Chen Qingzhu changed the subject:

"However, although I, as the temple master, can no longer care about the disrespect of Lady Jingnan, she also offended the gods. Setting fire to the Taoist temple is a serious crime. I cannot easily forgive her on behalf of the gods."

"If she really wants to atone for her sins, she should kneel outside the Cihang Temple for five days before discussing the matter of curing the eldest son of the Pei family."

In five days, Zhang Jinghong and others will definitely wait for a definite answer before returning to the capital.

Zhang is willing to perform hard only when there are audiences around. It may not be the case after a while.

After hearing the latter part of the conversation, Huiyun's frown finally relaxed and she couldn't help laughing.

She was just saying, when did the master of the temple really become a saint who could swallow a spit in his face.

This move is really amazing.

She was looking forward to seeing how the seemingly polite but actually arrogant Lady Jingnan would react after hearing these words.

"Then shall we accept her offerings?"

Huiyun asked.

Chen Qingzhu asked back:

"If Jingnan Marquis's Mansion wants to become a devout believer, can it not offer sacrifices?"

Huiyun smiled:

"That's true. The money from the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion is also money. How can we refuse it? I will convey the Master's intention right away!"
