"This is indeed a bit bad, but this cassock is the best reward for you, because its special functions are very good." The system remained unmoved and said slowly.

Fang Zheng sneered and said, "It's indeed very good. It comes with the cuckold buff..."

"Then do you listen or not?" The system said it was speechless, so couldn't it just let him finish the sentence in one breath

Fang Zheng thought for a while and answered all the questions. He might as well listen to the end, otherwise he would be at a huge disadvantage. Thinking of this, Fang Zheng said: "Listen, you tell me."

"In addition to the previous benefits of this cassock, the most important thing is that if you wear it to receive the award, the reward will be doubled!" the system said slowly.

Fang Zheng originally thought that the system was going to trick him again, but when he heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his entire bald head was like a light bulb! He said with a bit of excitement: "Really?!"

"Of course! How about this reward?" the system asked with a smile.

Fang Zheng immediately gave a thumbs up and said: "This reward is awesome! It is indeed produced by the system, it must be a high-quality product!"

The system hummed and said, "Who wanted to return the goods just now?"

"I don't know, I don't know. Who knows which handsome monk is so ignorant." Fang Zheng shook his head like a rattle, and there was a thunder above his head. He was used to it. Telling a lie and getting such a benefit is a huge profit.

Sure enough, the system was very happy to be flattered by this flattery. After asking Fang Zheng to put away his cassock, he disappeared.

Fangzheng sat on the kang, looked at the cassock in his hand, and said, "Although it's a bit ugly, although it's a bit tasteless, and although it looks green when you wear it. But I don't have a wife, so who can cuckold me?" What's more, if you don't wear it normally, it seems good to wear it somewhere no one is around when you receive the award."

Fang Zheng thought of this and put away his cassock happily.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?" Fang Zheng asked.

"Master, we just heard you talking about cassocks. Do you have cassocks?" Red Boy asked.

Fang Zheng hurriedly said: "Why do you care so much? Go to bed quickly, we will get up early tomorrow! Go to bed quickly!"

"Master, the Laba Festival is coming in a few days, shall we still cook Laba porridge?" Honghaier continued to ask.

Only then did Fang Zheng remember that the Laba Festival would be held a few days after the Great Cold. The coldest days in the whole winter are the two days of the twelfth lunar month and the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Those who have not personally experienced the cold weather and cold weather cannot speak to outsiders. In such a cold weather, Fang Zheng actually didn't want to hold any more activities. But if I think about it carefully, I cooked Laba porridge last year and it doesn’t seem right if I don’t cook it this year. After all, the efficacy of Laba porridge is well-known, and the villagers are looking forward to it.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng said: "Cook! But now, sleep! Let's talk about it tomorrow!"

When the little guys heard this, they left happily.

The days passed by, and when the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month arrived, the world became even colder. The sparrows that could still chirp on the trees were so cold that they couldn't come out of their nests.

In the early morning, after the monkey finished sweeping the yard, he ran to the kitchen to warm himself by the fire. After all, he was not a monster and was afraid of the cold.

Fang Zheng looked at the empty courtyard and murmured: "Bake it up. After these two days, it will be warm. It's time for pilgrims to come..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a question coming from outside: "Is Abbot Fangzheng here?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Zheng felt that the voice sounded familiar. He immediately stood up and walked out of the backyard, where he saw a simple and honest man standing under the bodhi tree. Fang Zheng immediately recognized the man's identity. He was Teacher Liu from the next village, but he was not a teacher. This was his name. It is said that none of their ancestors studied, so they have always been poor. His parents placed their hopes on Teacher Liu, so they gave him such a name.

As a result, I never expected that Teacher Liu was still not a teacher, but he was a very honest and honest person, so everyone preferred to call him Liu Laoshi!

Liu Laoshi was wearing an old military coat, with his hands in his sleeves and his neck hunched. It was obvious that the cold wind blew against him, a native of Northeast China, and he couldn't bear it.

Fang Zheng hurriedly said: "Amitabha, donor, is something okay?"

When Liu Laoshi saw Fang Zheng, he hurried over and looked at Fang Zheng with some hesitation, but hesitated to speak.

Fang Zheng was not in a hurry and said sideways: "Donor Liu, it's cold outside. If you need anything, go inside and talk."

Liu Laoshi took a look inside, and he knew that the temple was where the monks lived and was not visited by tourists, and was generally not open to the public. Although everyone was familiar with Fang Zheng, he still did not walk in. Instead, he shook his head and said, "I won't go, I won't go. Well, Abbot Fang Zheng, I have something to tell you."

When Fang Zheng saw that Liu Lao refused to go in, he had no choice but to accompany him outside. When the cold wind blew, he subconsciously wanted to shrink his neck and thought to himself: Why bother? If you insist on dragging this poor monk to suffer the cold with you, why not go in together

However, Fang Zheng also knew how honest Liu was, so he stopped urging him and just stood there quietly and said, "Donor, please tell me."

Liu said honestly: "Abbot Fangzheng, I'm here because of my father-in-law's affairs."

Fangzheng was stunned, father-in-law? Why do you want to ask him about his father-in-law's affairs? He is not Liu Laoshi's mother-in-law. It is difficult for outsiders to interfere in such family matters.

Liu Laoshi continued: "As you know, my wife is the adopted child of my father-in-law. She has not lived with my father-in-law since she was a child. There are two children in my father-in-law's family. My wife is the second oldest. At that time, the family was poor. My father-in-law's family couldn't afford to raise two children, so he adopted my wife to another family in the same village, my wife's current parents. But they have passed away...

My father-in-law now lives with his eldest daughter, and our family occasionally travels with them. After all, no matter what, he is my wife's biological father. Blood is thicker than water.

Just yesterday, someone told me that my father-in-law was kicked out by his eldest daughter and squatted outside all night, almost freezing to death! "

Fang Zheng originally felt sleepy after listening to it. After all, he knew all those things. It was freezing cold and he just wanted to go back and warm himself by the fire. As a result, as soon as he heard the next sentence, Fang Zheng's eyebrows instantly rose! Kick your biological father out of the house during the coldest time of winter? Frozen all night? Regardless? This... is too much of a beast!

Fang Zheng said: "Oh? Why did she do this? Is this her biological father?"

Liu Laoshi smiled bitterly and said: "This... I'd better not say it. It's always bad to talk about people behind their backs. The reason I came here this time is to ask Abbot Fangzheng to come forward and persuade the eldest sister to let my father-in-law go back and live there instead of outside. . Hey, if someone hadn’t discovered my father-in-law huddled in a pile of straw in this very cold day and brought him home to warm himself by the fire in time, my father-in-law would have froze to death. Being outside in such a cold day can kill people!"
