Proofread by Peter Gong
Jin Weiwei lowers her head and considers: “it is too kind if Jin Dabao dies like this. It's better to find a doctor and save his life first. Then she could torture him later in the future.”
"Go and get a doctor. Don't find expensive doctors. You can find an unprofessional doctor on the road." After Jin Weiwei says so, she still feels a little depressed. She kicks Jin Dabao again and says, "It's not worth spending money on you.”
Jin Dabao's illness seems to be serious. As Jin Weiwei guesses, the illness is caused by fright. So even though Little Rich only finds an ordinary doctor according to Jin Weiwei’s requirement, after having the medicine Jin Dabao gets rid of the fever. And he will get essentially well after another dose.
The next day, Jin Dabao wakes up early in the wood house. After sleeping the whole day, he now inevitably suffers back pain. When he intends to get up to stretch his body, he hears the footsteps outside. It sounds like Jin Weiwei and Little Rich are coming here.
Remembering the meeting with the ghost before Jin Weiwei's mother's grave the day before yesterday, he still feels scared. He doesn’t know how to face Jin Weiwei, for fear that she would ask about what happened that day. So, he walks back to the bed and pretends to sleep.
Sure enough, as soon as Jin Dabao lies down and closes his eyes, Jin Weiwei and Little Rich walk in.
"Why didn't he wake up? Didn't he take the medicine yesterday and recover? " Jin Weiwei finds Jin Dabao is still sleeping and asks.
Little Rich shakes his head and replies in an uncertain voice, "Maybe he will wake up later."
"After he wake up, I really want to ask him why he is afraid of ghosts like this?" Jin Weiwei feels strange about Jin Babao’s reaction to ghost.

"By the way, my birthday is coming. Every year he will take me to the temple to burn incense and pray on my birthday. Can you go with me to the temple this birthday? "
Jin Weiwei looks at Little Rich eagerly. Although they haven’t consummated, she has already treated him as her true husband in her heart. So, on her birthday, she hopes to go to the temple with him.
Little Rich doesn't say a word, just nods lightly and agrees.
Jin Weiwei is not satisfied with his attitude. She takes his hand and acts like a spoiled child: "After burning incense, let’s go shopping in the county town, shall we?"
"OK."
At last, she hears the affirmative answer from Little Rich. Jin Weiwei smiles and pulls Little Rich away.
Jin Dabao closes his eyes for a while. It is until he is sure that they have gone with no sound around that he dares to turn over and open his eyes.
Time is fleeting, and he almost forgets that it is Jin Weiwei's birthday two days later. This used to be his most anticipated day of the year.
In any case, the day after tomorrow, he must secretly follow Jin Weiwei to burn incense in the Quanan temple. By the way, to see if there are any……
Today is Jin Weiwei's birthday, so she gets up early in the morning, picks out her favorite pink blouse and puts it on. After enjoining Tao Xiaoqing to take good care of her house, Weiwei goes out with Little Rich.
On the way to Quanan temple they enjoy beautiful scenery, which makes Jin Weiwei particularly happy.
"Why do you burn incense in the temple every birthday?" Asks Little Rich.
"I don't know. Jin Dabao used to bring me to burn incense each birthday. I don't know why, but I think it's weird." Jin Weiwei answers with the dog tail grass in her hand.

"Weird?" Little Rich doesn't understand.
"Yes, weird." Jin Weiwei, who is tired of playing dog tail grass and throws it away, continues to say: "you know Jin Dabao always despises me as a burden. But every year on my birthday, he will suddenly look like a different person and treat me very well. He not only brings me to the temple to burn incense, but also buys me ice-sugar gourd to eat."
"It's also very strange that each time after burning incense, he seems to be a rich man and becomes extravagant"
"Oh? Really? " Little Rich is also curious about this.
"Well, that's why I feel a little strange. When we get to the Temple, we need to check it carefully. "
Talking, they arrive at the temple.
Quanan Temple is of moderate size which is located on Bei Gu mountain between Xingtian village and the county. It’s a place with a beautiful view and comfortable weather..
Today is just an ordinary day, so there are few people who come to burn incense. Jin Weiwei takes Little Rich to buy Incense as usual. After worshiping Bodhisattva, they walk around the hall, but fail to find anything special.
"Recall carefully, what else did your father bring you to do in the past years, or who he met and talked to?" Little Rich reminds Weiwei.
"Right, the ice-sugar gourd!"
Jin Weiwei remembers that after burning incense every year, Jin Dabao would go to buy an ice sugar gourd for her, and then asked her to stand alone beside a big water tank not far from the gate of the hall and wait for him.
Hearing this, Little Rich immediately walks out and buys an ice sugar gourd.
Jin Weiwei holds the ice sugar gourd and stands next to the big water tank as usual.
Just when she is to bite on the ice sugar gourd, a fat monk walks up to her from not afar.
This fat monk is very fat, who seems too heavy to walk. However, he walks with a springy step, and comes to Jin Weiwei soon.
"Amitabha, patroness looks kind-hearted. It’s fate to meet you here. Draw lots from me, I can predict your marriage."
Jin Weiwei quickly swallows the sugar gourd in her mouth, pats Little Rich who stands beside her and says, "Don't you see that I have such a handsome husband standing beside me? I don’t need to predict my marriage.”
The fat monk looks around again and asks, " Patroness, are your family members coming with you today?"
Why does the fat monk ask for this?
Jin Weiwei asks impatiently, "It’s very strange of you. My husband is my family member, isn’t he?"
The fat monk stops for a while and asks, "How about your father? Why doesn't he come with you today? Is he dead?"

The Mischievous Mrs. Maxfield
***The wrong girl is sometimes The Right One.*** Charlotte Samuels thought she'd be stuck waiting tables at Marlow's until all her debts are paid off-in about ten thousand years or so. She definitely didn't expect a marriage proposal from the arrogant Brandon Maxfield who was blackmailed by his father to make her his wife if he didn't want his least favorite cousin to run Maxfield Industries. Charlotte's instinct was to say HELL NO! but she's stumped by a few obstacles: 1.) His old man Martin Maxfield is dear to her heart and has been recently deteriorating in health. 2.) She gets a million dollars if she stays married to Brandon for a year. 3.) She would rather like the opportunity to teach the attractive but awfully rude man a few lessons he didn't think he needed from a 'teenage gold-digger' which was his term of endearment for her on their first date-er, business meeting. So what's a girl got to do, right? Sure, she's young and a little rough around the edges but there's something her would-be husband didn't know about her yet-she's nothing like he ever expected. Thrust into the glitzy world a standard-issue Mrs. Maxfield would fit perfectly and rule with impeccable social grace, Charlotte will either have to force herself into the mold or break free of it, risking what little she has left for everything that she can gain.*** Copyright © 2014 by Nina Tippett.
