The Goddess Temple is not big. The main hall enshrined the Goddess Yuanjun, and the left and right sides enshrined the two maids beside the Goddess. Behind the hall is the second row of monks, and there is an old tree next to the monks. It is said that this old tree was planted before the Goddess became an immortal and has a history of 800 years.

When he entered the palace to worship the goddess, Chen Danxia slowly knelt on the cushion, looked at the goddess who was high above, and silently prayed, took the sign handed over by the little girl's crown, shook it, took out one from the inside, looked at the number on it, put the bamboo stick back to the sign, and then handed the sign back to the little girl's crown.

When Xu Xu and Tian set the lottery, the three of them found the sign-up person next to them. Both the sister-in-law and sister-in-law got good signs. Chen Danxia had to meet noble people, turn bad luck into good fortune, and see peace when disasters came out; Xu Xu was the top sign, and the happy marriage was coming, and the future was rich and peaceful. Tian got the lottery, and advised you to calm down, ask for things and make plans difficult, and the fate came, so naturally the lovers would finally get married. Before the fate came, everything would be futile.

Although the signature was so resolved, Tian still did not give up and wrote the wishing paper and threw it under the old tree. Chen Danxia had a big belly and did not dare to do this. She sat down not far away and watched Xu Xu and Tian throw the wishing paper on the tree.

"Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Cheng." Someone shouted.

Chen Danxia didn't think that this was calling him, so he ignored it. He supported his chin and watched Tian throw the wishing paper onto the tree. However, he didn't hold it back and fell down again. He picked it up and continued to throw it. Xu Xu was weak and didn't throw it up to the tree once, so he was so tired that he was panting.

"Go away, you guys go away, Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Cheng."

This woman is so noisy.

Chen Danxia frowned and looked over, and found that the person who stopped the woman to call the woman was the yamen runner she led. He was slightly stunned and stunned for a moment, realizing that the woman was calling him.

Mrs. Cheng.

Chen Danxia's eyes turned slightly, his lips raised, and he said, "Captain Zeng, please bring her here."

Captain Zeng glanced at Chen Danxia and said, "Get back." Captain Zeng brought the woman to Chen Danxia.

The woman stood in front of Shen Danxia, ​​looked at Chen Danxia with scrutiny, and said, "Mrs. Cheng, I am Zhao Hanzhi, the daughter of Zhao Tai, a food merchant in the city."

"Miss Zhao, please sit down." Chen Danxia did not reveal her identity immediately. She wanted to tease this girl who was interesting to Cheng Jue.

Zhao Hanzhi did not sit down, "Mrs. Cheng, I have a heartless request."

"Please say it." Chen Danxia smiled.

Zhao Hanzhi knelt in front of Chen Danxia, ​​"Mrs. Cheng, I have been well-read in poetry since I was a child, and the female workers are all skilled in needlework. I admire Lord Cheng very much and I am willing to serve the master and wife as a maid and concubine, and I beg my wife to allow my daughter to come in."

Chen Danxia was shocked. She didn't expect that Zhao Hanzhi came from the recommended pillow mat. When she knew that Cheng Jue had a "wife" and "wife" was pregnant, she came from the recommended pillow mat. Is this a provocation? Chen Danxia curled the smile on her face and said, "Get up first."

"Mrs. Cheng agreed to me?" Zhao Hanzhi asked with a happy face.

Chen Danxia said coldly: "Miss Zhao, you just said that you have read poetry and books since you were young. I think you have read "The Women's Commandments". You should know about etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame? You have not gotten married yet and can't figure out some things. I will explain them to you clearly. Without that wife, I am willing to take a concubine to your husband."

"You are jealous. You are pregnant and you can't serve Lord Cheng at all. Why do you still have to occupy Lord Cheng? Don't worry, I won't fight for anything. I just want to serve Lord Cheng well." Zhao Hanzhi said angrily.

Chen Danxia shook his head and sneered, "What can I not argue? Don't you think it's ridiculous to say this? Get up, I'm not Mrs. Cheng, my husband's surname is Xu, I am Mrs. Xu, and Lord Cheng is my cousin."

"Why are you like this?" Zhao Hanzhi stood up, "Why do you want to pretend to be Mrs. Cheng? Do you also like Lord Cheng? Do you want to marry Lord Cheng? That's why you humiliate me like this?"

"Don't think of me as lowly as you, and be willing to be a concubine." Chen Danxia said unhappily. She respected Cheng Jue as her brother and never thought of marrying him.

"Bah, why would you coax someone and pretend to be Mrs. Cheng? How could I ask myself to be a concubine in order to stay with Lord Cheng? Lord Cheng has a cousin like you, and he has been in trouble for eight lifetimes." Zhao Hanzhi glared at Chen Danxia and said.

Seeing her like this, Chen Danxia frowned slightly, and suddenly lost interest in reasoning with her and said directly: "Miss Zhao, Lord Cheng's eldest brother married the second daughter of Renyi Bo, and the third brother married the third daughter of Dingbian Hou. Do you think you can marry the Cheng family with your family background?" He crushed her with her family background and made her retreat.

Zhao Hanzhi's eyes lit up. Lord Cheng's family background turned out to be so good, and she still had a chance to marry him. Chen Danxia never expected that her words would be counterproductive, which made Zhao Hanzhi firmly believe in marrying Cheng Jue, and there were many storms in the future.

Without a word, Chen Danxia was reluctant to talk to Zhao Hanzhi any longer. Seeing that Xu Xu and Tian had thrown the wishing paper onto the tree and hung it, they got up and left with them. After leaving the Goddess Temple, Chen Danxia got into the sedan chair. She was a little tired and had no energy to walk back to the county government.

When he returned to the county government office, Tian asked the cook to prepare lunch and bring it in; after lunch, Chen Danxia went to bed and took a nap; half an hour later, Chen Danxia got up, went to the recliner in the yard to sit down, and Xu Xu came with this collection of poems.

"San Sister-in-law, I've read it." Xu Xu sat down on the bamboo chair next to him.

"Remember." Chen Danxia said with a smile.

"The flowers bloom and the trees wither. In the spring, the scenery is in Shao and Shao. The stove does not hold the burning clothes festival, but watch the people in October." Xu Xu read.

"Time flies so fast. Before I knew it, it was the first day of October, and it was the day to send cold clothes." Chen Danxia sighed.

"Yes, we have been here for many days." Xu Xu looked up at the still green vine.

"Do you want to go back to Jindu?" Chen Danxia asked.

Xu Xu shook his head and smiled, "No, it's actually pretty good to come out so by chance."

Chen Danxia laughed, "I'll be relieved if you can think so easily." Xu Xu was kidnapped because she was implicated.

"San Sister-in-law, I'll continue to recite poems." Xu Xu smiled and turned the page, "When you get up in the morning, you open the door and snow all over the mountains, and the snow is clear and the clouds are clear..."

Cheng Jue, who came back early, saw Chen Danxia sitting leisurely on the lounge chair and gnawing pastries. Tian sat on the side to pick up the soles of his shoes, and Xu Xu sat on the other side to recite the poetry collection.

"Brother Cheng Er, why did you come back so early today?" Chen Danxia was the first to see him.

"Today's progress is very smooth, so I came back early." Cheng Jue walked over, "Is the Goddess Temple fun?" Tian stood up and gave up his seat.

"We are not going to play, we are going to ask for a wishing paper, and then." Chen Danxia smiled in a terrible way, "I saw your admirer." Xu Xu blushed and walked away with a collection of poems.

Cheng Jue frowned, "Don't talk nonsense."

"I didn't say nonsense, but that Miss Zhao is good-looking, but she is not very good-natured." Chen Danxia commented pertinently.

"Whatever she looks and how kind she is, it has nothing to do with me." Cheng Jue said coldly.

"I know, so I'll send her away for you. Thank me!" Chen Danxia said with a smile.

"How do you want me to thank you?" Cheng Jue asked with a smile.

Chen Danxia pouted and said, "Brother Cheng, you are so insincere when you ask this!"

Cheng Jue smiled, "Is this sincerity enough to give you "The Life and Death of Chessboard"?"

Chen Danxia raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "This is almost the same."

Tian brought a cup of tea, handed it to Cheng Jue with both hands, and sat down on the bamboo chair next to him. Cheng Jue took a sip of tea, "What kind of tea is this? Why does it have the fragrance of pine nuts?"

"The tea leaves are still the same tea leaves, but I just asked Sister Li to put a few pine nuts in it. How about it? It's delicious." Chen Danxia asked with a smile.

"The taste is very unique." Cheng Jue took another sip of tea.

Chen Danxia also picked up the teacup and took a sip of honey water, saying, "I ate a bowl of wontons on the street today. The one who sold wontons was a mother who took her children. I chatted with them for a few words before I realized that her husband was killed by the Japanese pirates."

"When the artillery is cast and loaded onto the ship, the Japanese pirates will no longer be domineering." Cheng Jue said in a deep voice.

"When it comes to artillery, I just remembered that the greater the power of the artillery, the greater the power of the artillery. When installed on the deck of the ship, it must be fixed, otherwise it will be easy to have accidents." Chen Danxia fired when participating in the military training of the university, and the power of the gun was still fresh in his memory.

Cheng Jue nodded, "I understand, I will tell them."

"Brother Cheng Er, how did you know that Miss Zhao?" Chen Danxia turned back to the gossip.

After finishing drinking the tea, Cheng Jue slowly said: "The first case I came to Kui County to investigate is related to the Zhao family."

"Oh, I understand." Chen Danxia smiled.

After chatting for a while, a yamen runner came to ask Cheng Jue to come out of the hall, and another case was to be tried.

In the evening, Tian returned to the room in a bath and sighed, and Li Minghua, who was reading a book, had no intention of reading. He put the book down and asked, "What's wrong? If you feel uncomfortable, please come and have a doctor come over while it's still early."

Tian turned his head and looked at him, saying, "I don't feel uncomfortable, I'm thinking about the second master."

"What's wrong with the Second Master?" Li Minghua asked.

"If Grandma Xu hadn't gotten married, how great would you say it would be?" Tian said with a frown.

"Don't think about it all, go to bed quickly." Li Minghua frowned. No matter how anxious he was to let the second master get married, he could not take away other people's wife.

"Don't you think the second master and Grandma Xu get along well?" Tian asked.

"So what? Grandma Xu is already married." Li Minghua said in a deep voice.

Tian sighed and went to bed without saying a word all night.

The next afternoon, Cheng Jue received information from the spies. The Japanese pirate leader Ichisei Nagata and several of his subordinates disguised themselves as warriors and entered Aoi County, asking him to be careful. Thinking of the innocent people who were robbed and killed by the Japanese pirates, Cheng Jue made up his mind to make these Ichisei Nagata and others come and comfort the people who were bullied and killed by them.

In the evening, Cheng Jue took Li Minghua, Captain Zeng and others to patrol near the workshop where artillery castings. There were spies from Dafeng among the Japanese pirates. Similarly, there were spies from the Japanese pirates in Kui County. It was only the end of September and early October, and the Japanese pirates came here disguised as warriors, 80% of them for artillery.
