The Princess of Northern Land Chapter 21-25

Chapter 21 Fixation (1)_1 “Benefactor Lin, why have you come to deliver firewood so early?” The door-opening monk asked Lin’s old man in surprise.

“I’m not here to deliver firewood today.” The old man from the Lin family jovially responded, “We’ve made some new food at home that’s quite suitable for the masters at the temple. So, we’ve brought it especially for the masters to try. Could you trouble the young monk to fetch the guest keeper and host, and ask if they could possibly keep it?”

“Amitabha Buddha.” The young monk uttered, somewhat amazed, after hearing the old man’s words, and glanced at the baskets.

However, the baskets were covered and it was impossible to see what was inside. After chanting the Buddha’s name, he said to the three Lins, “I will go and inform the guest keeper and host right now.”

“Please convey to Master Host that our new product is nutritious, and it is no less beneficial than eggs. Moreover, it’s vegetarian, perfectly suitable for the masters in the temple.” Lin Ziyin, in fear that the host might refuse to meet with them, took the opportunity to elaborate more.

“Amitabha Buddha.” The little monk chanted the buddha’s name and closed the back door.

“Grandfather, would the Host be unwilling to meet us?” Lin Ziyin asked with some apprehension. Regardless of who might come out to meet them, she believed that as long as someone in authority saw the tofu, they would undoubtedly be tempted. After all, Ding’an Temple was not short of silver, but the monks in the temple had too few dietary supplements. Tofu was absolutely the best choice for them.
