Lucky husband

Wan Rongtong didn't hold back, he laughed unceremoniously, and said with a smile: "Zhiwen, do you feel very cold, you actually put on such a thick padded jacket, like a black bear in the forest, wait for me to go back I must tell our former classmates what happened today, so that everyone will be happy when they know."

Bai Zhiwen was helpless, Li Mingjin was on the side without explaining, and helped Li Mingjin put the cage back to its original position and fix it, so as to save things from being scattered all over the place when the carriage drove away.

Li Mingde on the side looked at his younger brother also wrapped in a thick padded jacket, guessed that Bai Zhiwen's idea was probably Li Mingjin's idea, and looked at Li Mingjin disapprovingly.

Li Mingjin pretended not to see the look in the elder brother's eyes, he walked outside the door curtain of the carriage, and said to the inside: "Sister-in-law, mother, it's so cold after getting off the carriage, do you have thick clothes on the carriage, wear one on your body before Come down."

If it was just the two of them who wore thick clothes that were too conspicuous, it would be fine if the others wore them as well, so Li Mingjin's first persuasion targets were Bai Ting and Qiu Momo.

After hearing this, Bai Ting paused when she was about to get out of the car, and looked at Nanny Qiu: "Mommy, do you still have thick clothes in the car?"

Qiu Momo didn't know what kind of medicine was buried in Li Mingjin's gourd. She thought that since he asked this question, it might be on purpose, so she replied: "There is no medicine in the carriage, the clothes are all in the trunk cage."

"Then wait a moment, I'll go down and get it for you with brother Jin, you can wear something thicker before getting out of the carriage." After speaking, Bai Ting carefully opened the door curtain and went out quickly, so as to minimize the wind in the carriage.

Li Mingjin said that it was cold outside, but Bai Ting didn't think about it any further. She considered that Madam Qiu was the oldest of them all, she couldn't catch the cold, and it was better to wear thick clothes when she came to this cold temple in the mountains.

The original Han Province is located in the south. Even in winter, it is only December and early January of the next year that are the coldest.

This winter, they walked all the way north, and the weather became colder the further they went, which made them feel the dry cold that was different from the south, and the wind directly penetrated their necks, making people want to hide their necks under their clothes middle.

Fortunately, they all had scarves made of rabbit fur, which warmed up their necks and wrists a lot.

Bai Ting got out of the carriage, seeing Li Mingjin and Bai Zhiwen dressed so thickly, she was also taken aback like Wan Rongtong and Li Mingde.

She thought Bai Zhiwen was dressed so thickly, and she also felt that it was really cold outside Hantai Temple, so she turned her head and said to Qiu Momo who was in the carriage: "Mommy, it's really cold outside. You wait a moment."

These days, Madam Qiu has devoted herself to teaching Li Mingjin and Bai Ting. Even though Bai Ting knew that she was not as good as Li Mingjin in Madam Qiu's heart, she was not dissatisfied because of it. Mammy treats her as her elder, and is worried that Mammy Qiu will get off the carriage directly to catch the cold.

Finding clothes is not difficult, there is her robe on the top of Madam Qiu's cage, Li Mingjin put the clothes into the carriage, Bai Ting continued to take out her and Li Mingde's clothes from her and Li Mingde's cage.

Li Mingde actually didn't feel very cold, but Bai Ting was worried that Hantai Temple would be very cold on the mountain, so she insisted that he wear an extra robe, so as not to refute his wife's kindness, Li Mingde also wore an extra robe.

At this time, except for Wan Rongtong and his wife who were in another carriage, everyone in the Li family and the Bai family wore more layers than when they were in the carriage, and they all looked bloated than before. Li Mingjin was satisfied. nodded.

Although Mrs. Wan didn't get out of the carriage just now, she heard the commotion outside and asked the servant girl to find two cloaks. She and Wan Rongtong each had one. When Mrs. Wan got off the carriage, the cloak on her was already worn. alright.

Similar to Li Mingde's mentality, Wan Rongtong also put on a cape at Mrs. Wan's insistence. Fortunately, the cape prepared by his family was made of airtight fur, unlike the outer robe that Bai Zhiwen and the others added. The padded jacket was so bloated, but wearing it still made him look tall.

Therefore, in contrast, the people on both sides do not look like people who set off together.

The little novice who was waiting at the door blinked his eyes when he saw them, thinking that they were receiving two different groups of guests: "Are the benefactors the ones you mentioned with Senior Brother Yuankong just now?"

Wan Rongtong made a Buddhist salute to the little novice: "Yes, it's us. The master said just now that there is a complete Buddhist temple where we can stay overnight, and please ask the little master to lead the way."

Since they all said that they were together, the little novice saw that some of the men among them were scholars, and thought that these men might be students who had been together since they met on the road, so he nodded and led them to the temple. .

The carriage couldn't go up the steps, so it was led by the servants of the Wan family for a while, and then entered through the back door of Hantai Temple, where there was also a little novice waiting to meet him.

Because Li Mingjin suggested that everyone add more clothes just now, they were delayed at the gate of the temple for a while, and the time they came in was already different from what he had dreamed in the morning.

When the group of them arrived at the Zen courtyard, there were four armored soldiers standing outside as in his dream. The gate of the Zen courtyard was closed, and it was impossible to see what was going on inside.

Li Mingjin speculated that because they entered the temple a little later, the brother might have finished arguing with the woman. Either he left the courtyard or the woman left the courtyard, and the courtyard door would naturally not open again.

So, after they were a little further away from the monastery, Li Mingjin asked the little novice: "Little master, are there any distinguished guests in your monastery? Is the monastery where we live far away from them? Will we offend the distinguished guests?"

As soon as Li Mingjin asked what he said, Bai Zhiwen gave him a strange look. It was possible for Li Mingjin to be curious seeing that there were guards in the monastery, but the last question was not like what Brother Jin would usually say.

Because what Li Mingjin asked was not a secret, the little monk replied directly: "It's okay, the guest who lives in the temple in the past few days is Princess Jing'an. In addition to asking us to preside over her in the temple, she also worships the Buddha in the Buddhist monastery. Don't go out and walk around less, the Buddhist temple where several benefactors live is on the other side, so you don't have to worry about bumping into the princess."

It's no secret that Princess Jing'an will go to Hantai Temple to pay respects to the Buddha at this time of year. She has a good reputation in Beijing, she is not arrogant, and she has never had any conflicts with other people staying in the temple in these years.

Aunt Qiu's expression on the side changed slightly when she heard the little novice's words. Princess Jing'an was not someone else, but the eldest daughter of Concubine Chun. The princess was already 12 years old when Aunt Qiu left the palace, and she was reluctant to leave her. It occurred to her that she had met an old friend before entering the capital.

Back then, she was the nanny in charge of the pure concubine, so she often met the princes and princesses, but now she is just an old nanny who accompanied the husband-in-law to Beijing, and has no qualifications to see the princes and princesses again, not to mention the fact that the princess can't say goodbye after so many years. Having already forgotten about her, Nanny Qiu's expression quickly returned to calm.

Li Mingjin frowned slightly. It turned out that the woman in this courtyard was a noble princess, and the brother who was able to quarrel with her must have a different status. He continued to ask: "Little Master, I think the incense in your temple is very prosperous. There should be quite a few guests who came to worship the Buddha, besides Princess Jing An, are there any other distinguished guests in your temple today?"

"The weather is cold today. Except for Princess Jing'an, most of the people in the temple are passers-by like benefactors. They all stay for one night and then leave." After the little novice finished speaking, he thought of hearing from his brothers at noon that there was a guest in the temple today. Arguing to go to Princess Jing'an's Buddhist temple, he added, "Liu Fulang from Uncle Liu's family is also in the temple today, but he didn't stay overnight, so he should have left by now."

Liu Fulang of Uncle Liu's family that the little novice spoke of is Uncle Liu's direct grandson. It stands to reason that he has married into the Chu family, so he should be called by his husband's family name.

It's just that the Liu family is very powerful, and Liu Fulang was favored by his mother's family. He didn't like being called Chu Fulang, so everyone called him Liu Fulang.

Li Mingjin didn't know that there were still these twists and turns, but he had already found out what he wanted to know, and secretly remembered Uncle Liu Guo and Liu Fulang, and he would learn more about it when he arrived in the capital.

It just so happened that they walked outside the empty Zen courtyard at this time, Li Mingjin didn't ask any further questions, thanked the little novice, went into the courtyard, and took the list prepared by Hantai Temple to the Zen room to make his own bed.

Something was wrong, Bai Zhiwen was helping to make the bed, he felt that Brother Jin had been a little weird since he got off the carriage, he insisted on making him wear the thick padded jacket his mother prepared for them to wear indoors, and even entered the temple. Taking the initiative to ask the little monk for news, this is not something he would do.

To be precise, Brother Jin's strangeness started after he took a nap in the carriage in the morning. Bai Zhiwen went through what happened recently, but he still didn't understand what happened to Brother Jin.

After the beds were made, their carriage also entered the yard, and Li Mingjin went over to fetch the things they would use at night.

Bai Zhiwen planned to follow, but just as he walked out the door, Mammy Qiu stopped him: "What's the matter, Mammy?"

Walking to a corner, Qiu Momo carefully observed Bai Zhiwen's expression and said, "Master Bai, I asked Brother Jin at noon today, and he had a dream in the morning, and he dreamed that a daughter of a powerful man in the capital was looking for him. I want you to divorce and remarry, that's why he did that today."

Seeing that Bai Zhiwen was surprised at first, and then turned into heartache, Nanny Qiu secretly nodded and continued: "I have persuaded him once, but my persuasion had little effect, and he felt uneasy when he was in a completely unfamiliar place. The closest person, you are his reliance, why don't you talk to brother Jin later and explain him, maybe it will make him feel better."

Bai Zhiwen, who had been left alone for a long time, finally knew the reason why Li Mingjin was abnormal today, it was actually because of a dream.
