He didn't realize that after saying this, Qin Fushang's face had turned dark. He just didn't refute it for the sake of his face.

After hesitating for a moment, Qiao said:

"Why don't I accompany Zhenniang to the incense burning today? I can also chat with my father-in-law on the way."

This will enhance their relationship and make the father-in-law more willing to spend money on him.

Unexpectedly, his father-in-law, who always valued him, did not accept the olive branch he extended this time, but instead said indifferently:

"Studying is more important. You still have to go to school in August. Why waste your precious time on such trivial matters as burning incense?"

Teacher Qiao didn't want to appear to be trying to please the Yue family too much, so he had to give up.

Qin Zhenniang actually wanted her husband to go with her, but she was afraid that it would interfere with his studies, so she didn't insist.

When he got on the carriage, he complained to his mother and grandmother:

"Dad, why don't you let my husband go with you? He is a scholar and has a lot of knowledge. It would make me feel at ease to have him accompany me."

She admired her scholar husband very much, and under the influence of him, she no longer believed in such supernatural things.

Old Madam Qin actually couldn't stand this self-righteous grandson-in-law.

Hearing this, he rolled his eyes and said:

"Don't do that! If a pedantic person like him says something unpleasant and offends the master of the Divine Envoy Temple, our family will suffer a great loss!"

"Also, didn't your mother tell you not to tell anyone else about the abbot's affairs? How come it looks like Master Qiao knows about it, too?"

"My husband is not an outsider." Qin Zhenniang felt uncomfortable when she saw her grandmother belittling her husband because of the temple master, and couldn't help but say:

"Grandma, is the abbot so arrogant? He can't even listen to a question?"

Although she had heard from her mother about the magical powers of the abbot, she had never seen it with her own eyes, so she did not have much awe for the mysterious abbot.

Old Madam Qin was so angry when she heard her tone that she said coldly:

"In order to treat your face, your mother knelt down to beg the temple master and promised a thousand taels of silver as an offering to get this opportunity. You actually don't appreciate our kindness at all and turned a deaf ear to our instructions!"

"Let me make this clear first. If you offend the abbot today, you will no longer be recognized as your grandmother!"

Hearing her speak so seriously, Qin Zhenniang couldn't help feeling aggrieved, and her eyes turned red in an instant.

She had just given birth a month ago, and she was still upset about the freckles and was very emotional.

Mrs. Qin felt a little distressed, but she was also afraid that her daughter would do something bad, so she quickly tried to smooth things over:

"Mrs. Zhen, what you said is really disrespectful to the abbot! People with abilities naturally have tempers. We spent a lot of money to get the abbot to agree to treat your face. If you offend her because of your bad attitude, not only will you not be able to treat your face, but you will also ruin the family's affairs!"

Then he said to Madam Qin:

"Mother, Zhenniang has never seen the master's ability, so she is naturally not that respectful. Show her the new tooth the master gave you, and she will believe it."

Old Madam Qin opened her mouth to show Qin Zhenniang her new teeth, and then told her about her first visit to Cihang Temple. Qin Zhenniang was stunned for a moment and was very emotional.

"It seems that the world is so big that nothing is impossible. There are actually people with such abilities in the world."

She began to doubt her husband's previous assertion that there was no way in the world that there would be such an unreasonable method.

Arriving at Cihang Temple, the four members of the Qin family burned incense in the Cihang Hall, presented offerings worth 1,200 taels of silver, and sat in the reception hall for about two quarters of an hour before they saw Chen Qingzhu, who had stopped practicing.

Qin Zhenniang saw her grandmother and mother stand up and greet her. Even her father humbly stepped forward to pay his respects.

"I am Qin Dafu, and I am here to meet the Master of the Divine Envoy Temple!"

The young and elegant master of the temple was very calm in the face of his father, a wealthy businessman who was one of the most famous in the southern capital:
