The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

 Chapter 179 The old monk’s big deception

The eldest princess took Du Wan to Yuan Tong to apologize, "Master, this is my first time here, and I still don't understand the rules..."

 “Don’t panic, donor.”

The old monk was amiable and asked Du Wan cheerfully, "Little donor, did you really hear the sound just now?"

 “Hear it, nine bells are ringing.”

“No, it was before the bell rang. What else did you hear?”

 “Oh,...no.” Du Wan denied.

The old monk’s smile did not change, “The little donor will be very blessed in the future.”

Then the old monk looked at the eldest princess and said, "The donor is also a very blessed person."

 Then he looked at Qin Jiu and said he was blessed.

“Thank you, Master Yuantong, for your comments.” The eldest princess was very excited.

"Thank you, Master." Qin Jiu was also very excited, his face flushed with joy.

Du Wan is the only one who is calm. He received a good education in the past and first of all believed in science.

 So in her mind, the old monk was a big liar.

 The deception was very perfunctory and not professional at all. All three people said he was blessed, and it must have sounded better to her than to him.

Yuan Tong took off a string of Bodhi beads and put them into Du Wan's hand. "This is a gift from the poor monk to the little benefactor. It can ward off a disaster."

 “Really?” Du Wan pretended to be surprised.

 Yuantong: "Take it seriously."

Du Wan lowered her eyes and played with the Bodhi bracelet in her hand.

Three small red ropes are woven into a bracelet using a special technique, connecting nine jade-carved Bodhi seeds together. Each bodhi is carved with strange patterns and nine ancient characters that Du Wan cannot understand.

Du Wan vaguely felt that the nine jade bodhi seeds were not simply connected together, but followed some special pattern. It feels cool when held in the hand without making people feel cold. It is very spiritual.

 This is a great gift!

Whether it can ward off disaster or not, this bracelet is valuable.

 Didn’t say accept it, or not accept it?

Du Wan suddenly asked: "Then can I give it to someone?"

 “Okay.” Yuantong’s eyes flashed.

"Okay, thank you for the gift." Du Wan looked around on her body, but couldn't find anything to return the gift. After bathing and burning incense, she didn't bring any money or banknotes. "Don't worry, my mother will definitely donate more money for sesame oil later. ."

"Then thank the little benefactor. The little benefactor can come often in the future, and the poor monk will sweep the bed to welcome him." Yuan Tong smiled kindly and silently, and his eyes almost narrowed into a line with laughter.

Du Wan's face was calm, but in her heart she felt that he had something up his sleeve.

　　I didn’t stay in the temple for long.

It was getting light outside, and pilgrims gradually gathered outside the temple.

The one burning incense today is the eldest princess.

The eldest princess put away her excitement as she stepped out of the palace, still with a smile on her face.

 On the other hand, Qin Jiu was still very excited.

Du Wan was still playing with the Bodhi bracelet given by Yuan Tong and said casually: "Mom, I heard that people who burn incense on their heads can have their wishes come true."

“Yes! My mother’s wish has come true.” The eldest princess said with a gentle smile.

Du Wan asked confusedly: "Didn't we just leave the palace?"

“Mom, I hope you will be safe in the future. Master Yuantong said that you are very lucky, so you will definitely be safe in the future.”

 Princess, this logic... is okay.

It's rare that the princess is happy, so Du Wan won't say anything disappointing.

However, Qin Jiu suddenly held Du Wan's hand and said with joy: "Wan Wan, Wan Wan! Master Yuan Tong said that I am blessed. Is this true? Really? I am not dreaming, am I? .”    “Oh, he said the three of us are lucky.” Du Wan said angrily   .

I don’t even know how excited I am.

 Such an obvious deception, both of them were convinced.

The eldest princess smiled and said: "My family, Wanwan, is the most blessed. She got a Bodhi bracelet from Master Yuantong."

“Yes.” Qin Jiu agreed.

Du Wan put away the bracelet and put it on her hand, "I will give it to my brother when I see him next time."

“Don’t you wear it yourself?” Qin Jiu was surprised.

Du Wan said nonchalantly: "My eldest brother needs it more."

 When the old monk said that this bracelet could prevent someone from disaster, the first person that came to Du Wan's mind was Du Qian. Du Qian is dead in the book, so I don’t know if the plot will be forced into it. Wearing this bracelet for him makes people feel more at ease. Yes, just for peace of mind. It's not that she really believes that the Bodhi bracelet can ward off disasters.

The eldest princess immediately asked Aunt Wen to donate more sesame oil money.

 Mother Wen went away, and when she came back, she had three more lucky bags in her hand.

Each blessing bag contains a peace charm.

The eldest princess handed one to Qin Jiu and tied the other around her daughter's waist.

 The remaining one was asked by Aunt Wen to put away, saying that it had another use.

The group was going back to the other courtyard to have breakfast first, and they had just stepped down the stairs.

“Hey, Your Highness.” A woman’s voice sounded in surprise not far away.

Du Wan looked towards the sound.

The woman who made the noise was dressed simply but with fine materials. She is about the same age as the eldest princess, so she should be of the same age. On her left and right sides, there were two young girls. There were some maids and women following behind.

The eldest princess smiled and said, "She is my future mother-in-law. What a coincidence."

 “My wife pays homage to Your Highness.” The woman stepped forward dignifiedly to pay homage.

The eldest princess quickly went to hold her hand, "You're welcome, we are all one family. Wanwan, come here and see Aunt Pei."

This is Pei Hao’s mother?

Du Wan immediately stepped forward obediently and said hello, "Hello, Aunt Pei."

"Okay, everything is okay. We haven't seen her for a long time, and Wan'er is becoming more and more energetic." Mrs. Pei said with a warm smile. Then he took off the jade bracelet in his hand and put it on Du Wan's hand. He happened to see the bodhi jade string in her hand and was surprised.

 Then, Mrs. Pei asked the two girls around her to come forward to pay tribute to the eldest princess.

The two girls respectfully stepped forward to pay homage to the eldest princess, but either intentionally or unintentionally, they ignored Du Wan, the princess.

Du Wan raised his eyebrows when he saw this.

 She would not be so careful about this little thing as to embarrass the Pei family. It did let her know how to treat the two girls. If you don't like each other, just maintain face.

Mrs. Pei pulled the girl in pink clothes next to her.

A fourteen-year-old girl, wearing a light pink skirt, has a small oval face, a crescent-shaped eyebrow, a pair of innocent big eyes, a pink cherry mouth, and a simple and bright smile.

Mrs. Pei introduced: "Your Highness, this is the little girl Huiyu, who was born one month earlier than the princess."

“The daughter of your noble family is a person who understands etiquette and is very lovable.” The eldest princess praised with a smile.

Mrs. Pei did not hear the mystery, and introduced another girl affectionately, "This is the eldest daughter of my second brother, her name is Mu Fanling. She has just turned sixteen and is not engaged yet. She just arrived in the capital the day before yesterday. , I specially brought her out today to offer incense and learn a lot."

The eldest princess’s polite words came again, “He is a well-educated person.”

 “Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness.”

Mu Fanling has a beautiful face, gentleness and calmness, and a graceful manner. It is obvious at a glance that she has received an excellent education.
