Chapter 24 Take it from the people and use it for the people
Zhiyuan rushed forward in a panic, pushed through the crowd and stopped in front of the table.
The dozen or so jewelry items in front of him were all extremely familiar, and he had played with each one of them lovingly.
Zhiyuan's eyes turned red, his chest heaved violently, and he could not calm down.
"Who is so generous? It seems like it's been a long time since I saw someone donate so many things at once." A monk commented on the side.
"I don't know, but it should be ordinary people. If the incense money is donated by wealthy families, it will usually be registered at the warehouse."
"No matter what, it is still some income, and it will be used for the benefit of the people, which is always a good thing."
At this moment, Zhiyuan could hardly hear anything.
These things are obviously all his!
Each and every one of them was hard-earned, how come they appear here now!
In the front hall of the Buddhist temple, a special offering table is set up for ordinary people to donate incense money, because every penny is a donation to be used for the daily maintenance of the Buddhist temple and the relief and assistance to the people in specific periods.
Therefore, there will be special monks responsible for keeping records to ensure that there is no confusion over the money.
If the donation comes from dignitaries or wealthy families, as the amount is often quite large, they will usually go directly to the person in charge of the Buddhist temple's warehouse to avoid revealing their wealth and causing criticism.
Although these things are not very valuable nowadays, they are not a small amount for ordinary people.
Zhiyuan's heart was bleeding as he watched the monk record a gold hairpin. Then he saw the monk pick up a jade ring and he subconsciously took the ring in his hand.
For a moment, the eyes of several people around him fell on him: "Junior Brother Zhiyuan?"
Zhiyuan came back to his senses, forced a smile, then slowly handed the ring back to the monk, feeling his heart bleeding.
"I just found the ring familiar and couldn't help but take a few more glances at it."
After the monk took it, he didn't say much.
Zhiyuan couldn't help but say, "I wonder who donated these things? It's really generous."
The monk did not even raise his head. He wrote down the information while saying, "I don't know either. The other party simply placed a package on the road where Senior Brother Zhihui passed by. There was a note inside saying that these things were donated to the Buddhist temple as incense money, hoping that they could help some people."
Zhiyuan's lips trembled slightly, his face turned green, and he was speechless for a long time.
But now, no matter how unwilling he was, he couldn't take these things away!
Yuping hid behind the curtain, watched Zhiyuan's reaction, and returned to Shen Shuyi's house excitedly.
"Miss, you didn't see Zhiyuan's expression at that time~!"
Shen Shuyi put down his pen, his face calm, "All this money is ill-gotten gains, now it can be regarded as taken from the people and used for the people."
Yuping nodded. Although there are termites everywhere, the reputation and conduct of the Jade Buddha Temple have always been good.
The Buddhist temple regularly provides free medical treatment to the people living at the foot of the mountain every month, and uses the extra money from incense offerings to buy some medicinal herbs for the people. Although the medical skills of the monks in the Buddhist temple may not be very advanced, they have saved many lives year after year, and are truly doing good deeds.

Zhiyuan was expelled from the Buddhist temple, but Hongying fell ill.
Perhaps it was because the impact of the incident was too great that Hongying reacted slowly. She looked at the marks left by the man all over her body and the bloodstain on the handkerchief in the room, and had nightmares for several days.
In her dreams every day, she saw Zhiyuan pressing her down. Then the scene changed and the incident became known to everyone and people were pointing fingers at her.
Hongying was completely panicked and then fell ill.
After being sick for three days in a row, he lost a lot of weight. Fortunately, on the fourth day, Nanny Zhang came with the maids and servants from the mansion.
This time, Nanny Zhang came on the orders of Qin Xuerong and planned to stay for a few more days to test Shen Shuyi's strength.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived, he saw Hongying, who was in tears and looked sick.
"Aunt!" When Hongying saw Aunt Zhang, tears flowed like rain and she was out of breath for a while.
Aunt Zhang was so distressed that she immediately hugged her and said, "What happened? I've only been gone for a few days, why did you make yourself look like this?"
Hongying was full of grievances and uneasiness, but she swallowed the words back several times when they came to her lips.
She didn't dare to say anything, but just bit her lips tightly, crying and shaking her head.
Nanny Zhang asked the maid to leave and coaxed her for a while until it got dark. Finally, she managed to trick Hongying into revealing the truth.
"This is simply outrageous! I underestimated Shen Shuyi!" Aunt Zhang was so angry that her teeth were itching.
"Aunt, what am I going to do in the future? How am I going to live?"
Nanny Zhang said with a sullen face, "Even if she knew, so what? This is a Buddhist temple. She is no different from an orphan here. What kind of trouble can she cause?"
"I'll think of a way later. I'll ask Madam to take you back to the mansion. Then you'll be far away, and even if she stretches her arms far, she won't be able to control you."
There was a gleam of light in Nanny Zhang's eyes. Looking at Hongying, who had lost a lot of weight in just a few days, she felt hatred and anger.
Hongying looked at her absentmindedly, as if she had found some confidence: "Will this work?"
Nanny Zhang thought for a moment and lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, Madam won't tolerate her at all, let alone take her back to the mansion. When you return to the mansion, I will arrange a marriage for you as soon as possible. As long as you can get through the wedding night, she will have no evidence to prove her wrongdoing even if she threatens you with this in the future."
"But...but Master Huai Hai was there that day. If we find a master to verify it..."
Nanny Zhang frowned and said, "Master Huaihai is a monk and does not care about worldly affairs. Besides, even if he saw it, he would not know what happened between you and Zhiyuan in the room. As long as you deny it and just say that you struggled desperately and refused to obey, what can others do?"
After hearing what Nanny Zhang said, Hongying remained silent for a long time, but finally became a little more angry.
"I underestimated Shen Shuyi! Hongying, the madam sent me here to test her. Just wait, your aunt will definitely let you off the hook."
There was a hint of viciousness on Aunt Zhang's wrinkled face.
"Aunt, Shen Shuyi is not easy to deal with now, you must not..."
Before Hongying finished speaking, Nanny Zhang interrupted her and said, "Don't worry, no one knows Madam's mind better than me. She is the child left by the previous Madam. Madam can't tolerate her and will naturally not let her have an easy life. The more miserable she is, the happier Madam will be. Even if the matter really gets out of hand, as long as I am right and clear, Madam will only protect me."
Hongying still felt uneasy. When she thought of Shen Shuyi's cold and thin eyes, she felt cold all over and indescribably scared.
Nanny Zhang patted her hands and said, "Don't be afraid. Whether she has the guts to make trouble in front of Madam and Master is still unknown. If that day comes, even if Madam scolds me, she will only think that I did a good job."
