Chapter 115: Chapter 115: The Ancestor Gets the Fortune Cat
Jiangli stayed in the side hall for ten minutes, not a minute more, not a minute less.
After a full ten minutes, she left the side hall.
Zhang Meijuan and Qiang Hongtao, both with reddened eyes, were still talking to each other.
Seeing Jiangli come out, Qiang Hongtao was the first to wipe the corner of his eye, saying, “All right, time is up. Being able to see you one last time, Meijuan, I’m already very content. From now on, you and the child must take good care of yourselves. I’ll bless you from the other side.”
Zhang Meijuan, unable to hold back her tears, could only nod.
Jiangli took out a handkerchief she had prepared earlier and handed it to her.
Zhang Meijuan accepted it with one hand, wiped her tears, and choking up, picked up the fortune cat that was next to her and handed it to Jiangli.
“Abbot, this fortune cat is for you.”
Jiangli paused, “Didn’t you say that this was the last gift he gave you?”
“No.” Zhang Meijuan glanced at Qiang Hongtao and smiled as she touched her belly, “I already have a much better gift, and I think the Abbot really seems to like this fortune cat. I also promised you before that as long as you help me find the person who killed my husband, I would give this to you, as a way to keep my word.”
Hearing this, Jiangli didn’t stand on ceremony and took the fortune cat. She then handed over a talisman, “This is a Fetal Protection Talisman. When you go back, put it in a cloth bag and keep it close to your body. It can ensure that you give birth to the child safely.”
Zhang Meijuan trusted Jiangli without question and immediately took it, “Thank you, Abbot. How much is this talisman?”
“Considering the fortune cat, this talisman is free, let’s call it an even exchange.” Jiangli stroked the fortune cat in her hand.
Zhang Meijuan thanked her gratefully.
Qiang Hongtao also continued to bow deeply in gratitude.
Jiangli spoke calmly, “Enough of that. You should head back now. As for your husband, I will send him on his way tonight.”
Even though she knew it was coming, upon hearing this, Zhang Meijuan couldn’t help but shiver, and the tears she had just stopped threatened to flow again.
She looked at Qiang Hongtao with reluctance and struggled to say, “Abbot, can I set up a memorial tablet for my husband here? I hope he won’t have such a hard life in his next life, and it would also leave me with a token of remembrance. When I miss him, I can come here to see it.”
Jiangli considered for a moment, then nodded, “You can. As for the price of the memorial tablet, you can get in touch with Xia Xin later.”
Zhang Meijuan agreed, “Thank you, Abbot.”
Urged on by Jiangli, Zhang Meijuan left Jiaoyang Temple with lingering steps, looking back three times with every step she took.
After she left, Jiangli closed the door, and Qiang Hongtao couldn’t help covering his face.
Jiangli let him express his emotions for a while before saying, “She’ll be all right, and you need to be as well. She probably wishes for your well-being more than anyone else.”
At her words, Qiang Hongtao choked up, “Thank you, Abbot, I can’t thank you enough.”
Jiangli patted him on the shoulder and asked, “Let me ask you a question. Where did you buy this fortune cat?”
“From a supermarket in a scenic area in H City,” Qiang Hongtao replied. “Does the Abbot really like fortune cats?”
Jiangli vaguely said, “You could say that.”
She continued to ask, “What’s the name of that scenic area, and the name of the supermarket? Tell Xia Xin later.”
Qiang Hongtao, thinking that Jiangli wanted to buy a fortune cat, agreed to do so.
Since Jiangli had helped him so much, this trivial matter was probably the only thing he could do for her.

Jiangli told Qiang Hongtao to find Xia Xin and have Xia Xin make him his favorite dish. Then, carrying the fortune cat, she returned to her own room.
