Chapter 718 The Master’s New Year’s Gift

Xue Mei quickly prepared Xiuzhu's dowry and temporarily placed it in the backyard.

As the end of the year approaches, everyone is very busy. In addition to Dai Jingge, Xiuzhu also helped Xue Mei go to Baolong Money House twice and sorted out the account book for Xue Mei.

This time, Dai's mother went with her.

Hongluan and Jinping both went to the Netherworld Pavilion; when they turned around, Jinping also went to the Jiyan Building.

Cai Yuan and the Divine Doctor Pavilion were already too busy. She came back for the New Year and didn't want to let anyone go, and she didn't dare to offend Cheng Yanghou.

On the eve of New Year's Eve, everyone came back again and Xue Mei held a banquet.

This time, she asked Linbo and Zhaoying to sit down, which was considered a confidant in the room.

Speaking of next year's arrangements, Xue Mei said: "Mom Dai may want to help me manage a money shop. Where is Dai Jingge? Linbo, you can also help Xiuzhu."

"I'm busy." Xiu Zhu said.

Xue Mei: "I'm worried that you will get pregnant. Once you get pregnant, someone will have to help you."

Xiuzhu: "..."

The maids pursed their lips and smiled.

Dai's mother looked at Xue Mei helplessly.

Xue Mei didn't understand why: "What's wrong? You're going to get married, and you don't consider pregnancy? Are you planning to do it when things come to an end?"

Dai Mother: "Miss, you are not married yet."

"But I know a lot, and I don't know anything about marriage?" Xue Mei said.

Dai Mother and others: "..."

You're still thrilled...

Linbo didn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Then everyone laughed and the room was filled with laughter.

On New Year's Eve, Xue Chi was not at home all day and he went into the palace.

There are sacrifices in the palace and New Year’s Eve dinner. There are various rituals, from morning to night.

Xue Mei was in charge of family affairs, looked at the menu on New Year's Eve, and asked how many lanterns were hung and how many silk flowers were erected. All trivial matters were passed by her nose.

When she was busy, the maid came in and reported: "Miss, a master has come and said that you are sending you a New Year gift."

Xue Mei smiled slightly.

Needless to say, it must be Master Michen.

She didn't hate Master Michen because he was good-looking. Most people in the world were ordinary people, neither beautiful nor ugly. There were not many people who were really ugly, and not many people who were really good-looking.

Xue Mei thought he was very attractive as Master Michen, but he was wearing a cassock.

During the Tang Dynasty, before Wu Zetian cleaned up the Buddhist and Taoist families, many princesses, ladies, and daughters had too close contact with monks.

Xue Mei can understand them very much.

She cleaned up and went to the outer courtyard to meet Master Michen.

"Amitabha. It's almost the end of the year. I'll give Chengyang Hou a few peace talismans, which can be attached to the door or put in a purse and carried with you." Master Michen said.

It may be that this female marquis was disrespectful to ghosts and gods, and Michen would like to explain in detail the usage of the peace talisman.

Xue Mei thanked me.

"Did you give this to me, or did your uncle ask me to give this?" Xue Mei asked with a smile.

Master Michen: "Of course I want to give it to you."

Xue Mei smiled: "I thought the person the mage didn't want to see the most was me. I didn't expect you to give me a peace talisman. Why, what mission does the mage have?"

Michen's face remained unchanged.

He sighed softly, and a little helplessness appeared on his extraordinary face: "The princess is joking about me again."

"I am the marquis now," said Xue Mei.

Master Michen: “…”

Perhaps, in his heart, Princess Chengyang who gave him medicine in Baiya Town was the cutest one.

After arriving in Chu, both Miss Bai and Marquis Chengyang were shocked and he could not find the princess's appearance.

The princess is a miracle doctor and a bodhisattva who can save his pain; while the white girl or Chengyang Marquis is a haze that can arouse the taboos in his heart.

He doesn't want to commit murder.

"Forgive me, Master," said Master Mi Chen.

Xue Mei smiled and said, "It's okay. Thank you, the master, for giving us New Year's gifts. I also have a gift for the master."

After saying that, she took out a medicine bottle.

This kind of medicine bottle was prepared by the Lu family for her at the beginning. She liked it very much and kept it all in her own space. When needed, she would take one out.

Xue Mei put the medicine for treating gout in and handed it to Master Michen: "When your foot hurts, just take one pill. There are thirty pills in total, how many years should it last."

Master Michen: “…”

He suddenly felt that Xue Mei had a kind of compassion, maybe she didn't even know it herself.

She never teases others' pain.

"You are very hard, and if I can solve it, I will save you. Maybe I don't recognize you." This is her attitude towards Michen, or her attitude towards life.

In Michen's view, this is "great compassion."

Every doctor, regardless of whether he receives medical treatment or not, can do his best to relieve people's pain, has a great compassionate heart.

He pondered for a while, followed with a wry smile: "Thank you, Marquis."

"You're welcome. Master, I wish you a happy New Year, too." Xue Mei said.

"Happy New Year..." Master Michen was slightly stunned.

Happiness... It seems that no one has ever wished others "happy". All I wished for are peace, wealth and health. These are precious and not easy to obtain.

Then is happiness easy to obtain?

"Mr. Marquis, is this Zen word?" he asked.

Xue Mei: "Happy New Year? How do you count Zen words..."

She was stunned for a moment, and Master Michen was also stunned. For a moment, neither of them spoke.

"That's right." After silence, Xue Mei spoke first, "I wish the master a happy one."

"I wish you happiness to the marquis," Mi Chen said.

He got up and left.

Xue Mei did not give him a gift. Master Mi Chen is not an ordinary person, so he doesn't need Xue Mei to give him a gift.

Xue Mei asked him to stick his peace talisman to the door of the house.

Dai's mother talked about Master Michen: "It seems to be the abbot of Cuiwei Temple. He is so young. He looks like he is only in his early thirties, so he is already the abbot."

The monks in my memory are all fifty or sixty years old.

"Our emperor is different from others." Xue Mei smiled, "He is willing to activate Master Michen, so Master Michen is the abbot."

Emperor Jianhong was indeed an emperor who was easy to "rebellion", but he could grasp the right position. For example, Master Michen had many believers. People in the world recognized his profound Buddhism. If the emperor used him exceptionally, he would not attract public anger.

But as Dai's mother said, he was too young, and the emperor would not let him be the abbot.

"...If he can't be the abbot, I can't be the marquis." Xue Mei smiled, "The cause and effect in the world is really mysterious. If you see Mi Chen next time, you can talk to him about this."

Dai’s mother: “…”

She didn't understand.

However, Xue Mei felt in a good mood because she found another cause and effect.

Before nightfall, firecrackers started to rise in the city, one by one. The dark sky was lit by fireworks, and the night continued, like a sleepless night.

Xue Mei relied on the railing to watch the fireworks and thought about a lot of things. She was in Liang State, Xiao Jingcheng, the little prince, and even remembered her past life.

However, my previous life was already a vague shadow.

She gradually couldn't remember the boss's appearance.

After so many years of my colleague, I thought his appearance would always be engraved in Xue Mei's heart. It turned out that she would forget him and her most primitive life.

She is already an ancient man.
