At this time, Zong Jiyuan was dressed in plain clothes and curled Tingting, and after entering the temple gate and getting out of the sight of the poor people, he even floated through the courtyard like smoke and went straight to the main hall.

Sure enough, as she calculated, there were almost no people in the main hall at this time, and soon, the two pilgrims who had just entered the hall also left one after another, and only Zong Jiyuan was left in the spacious hall.

He took out dried and fresh fruits from the small bamboo basket and offered them, and then went to the incense burner and lit three pillars of incense, turned around and knelt down on the futon in front of the offering table, and muttered silently in his mouth.

Soon the first pillar of incense burned out, so I had to go on the second time, while pretending to make a wish, while observing the surrounding movements with the corner of my eye, I couldn't help but feel a little anxious-

Why don't you see that person? Could it be that I really guessed wrong......

But in a hurry, if people don't come out, it's not a matter to always kneel like this, endless incense, and it will also be suspicious after a long time.

I thought to myself, why don't I take the initiative to find that guy. I made up my mind, and when the incense burned out, I went to follow the plan, but at this time, I saw a person turn out from the side of the main hall, and went straight to the table next to the hall and sat down.

Even if he didn't look back, Zong Jiyuan felt the gaze projected towards him from that direction.

Sure enough, it came-

Secretly sneered and let out a long sigh of relief, Ji Yuan deliberately made a sad and sad look, and finally wiped away tears......

After doing enough play, he slowly got up and packed up the things he brought, Ji Yuan slowly walked towards the temple gate, and at the moment when he was about to step out of the door, a woman's voice came from his ears,

"Little girl, do you have anything sad about you?"

"Ah......h

Ji Yuan was surprised, and turned to look at the person who spoke in a daze, but this expression made her beautiful face look more pure and lovely.

"You, you are ......"

"The little woman is a layman in this temple, and her name is Xinnian."

Sure enough, it was the woman sitting behind the table who spoke, because she was a layman, but she was a person who had not really been ordained as a monk in the temple, so this person was no different from the lay family except for a gray cloth monk's robe.

Ji Yuan saw that she was about fifty years old, and she had a white face and thin eyebrows, which could indeed make people feel good, and said secretly, no wonder Yang Guilin repeatedly emphasized that she was a good person, and said softly,

"It turns out that you are a master of mind, and I often hear people mention you and say that you are a very good person."

"yes, that's a real prize,"

Xinnian smiled slightly,

"But what does the little woman seem to be unhappy about when she sees the girl, and if you may, can you tell me?"

"Well, the little woman is full of grievances, and I don't know who to talk to."

As he spoke, Ji Yuan moved the lotus step lightly and came to the table.

Xinnian hurriedly moved a chair from the side and sat her down, before saying,

"Little girl, come, sit down and talk slowly."

"Thank you,"

Ji Yuan once again showed an extremely sad expression,

"The life of a little girl is really bitter......"

"Don't cry, don't cry,"

Bian poured her another glass of water, and the thought persuaded in a gentler tone,

"Tell me your troubles with peace of mind, and maybe the little woman will be able to help you." Little girl, what's your name? Where do you live? ”

"The little woman's name is Yuan Jier, and she is originally from Sanhe Town,"

Along the way, Zong Jiyuan has already made up nonsense, so he is quite fluent in speaking.

"Originally, there were two parents in the family, and there were two older brothers. Probably because the second elder only has a daughter like a little girl, so he loves him more, and he must find an in-law family for me who can enjoy a lifetime of happiness, so that now the little girl is seventeen years old, but she didn't have time to really book a family business. I thought that my parents should be in charge of my life, but how could I have imagined that not long ago, my parents died of a violent illness one after another. After the two brothers divided the family property, they thought I was a burden, and my parents rushed to push me out of the door before the mourning period expired, and threatened that as long as the dowry was more, anyone could come and marry me, wouldn't this be tantamount to selling me? They are my own brothers, how can they do this to me...... I'm really scared of ...... right now."

As he spoke, he began to sob again.

This thought kept looking at her and listening quietly, until Zong Jiyuan cried again, and then persuaded her,

"I see, what a poor little girl. So, what do you want to ask for at the temple this time, and how can your two brothers rest assured that you will come alone to worship incense? ”

"The little girl came here just to meet a wishful man......"

Speaking of this, Zong Jiyuan deliberately made a shy appearance again, and then glanced at the courtyard outside the main hall,

"Two brothers, hmph, how can they allow me to come out alone, aren't they watching from the courtyard, as if I can escape halfway."

Xin Nian followed her gaze, and just saw the two disguised officers, and couldn't help but be stunned before saying,

"Both of your brothers look young and strong, but don't worry, maybe the little woman can really do it for you."

"Really?"

Ji Yuan smiled secretly in his heart, just waiting for her to say this, but on the surface he was still very surprised,

"You didn't say that to comfort me, did you?"

"How so?"

At this time, the face of the mind revealed a little smugness,

Although the little woman was only a layman in this temple, she knew many people. There happens to be a son, twenty-three years old this year, with a solid family and a lot of wealth, and he is an only child, and his temperament is also very easy-going and loyal, and he just wants to marry a beautiful and gentle woman. Little girl, you are so beautiful, and you are the same age as that son, and you don't have to worry about the dowry, your two brothers will definitely be satisfied. How about it, do you have the heart to see it? ”

"Do you mean, "See you now?"

Zong Jiyuan looked even more shy and asked in a low voice.

Seeing her longing, I was more and more relieved, and said,

"yes, why doesn't Miss Jill want to?"

"No, no, no,"

Zong Jiyuan waved his hands again and again,

"Jill just thinks that I was originally a stranger, and if I meet so suddenly, will it make that boy think that I am frivolous and ......?"

The more he spoke, the quieter he became, and the last two words were almost inaudible.

But the more this happened, the more I thought that what she said was true, so I laughed,

"How can it be, I can't hide it, that prince is in this temple at this time, I'll go and explain your situation to him first, and he will definitely treat Miss Jill with courtesy."
