Chapter 1022 Outing

Chapter 1022: Outing Chapter 1022: Outing Editor: Atlas Studios Fan Zijin closed the book and said, “Then there’s only one way.

Don’t go out and just stay at home.” Little Madam Xia puffed up her cheeks as she watched Fan Zijin get up and leave with the book.

Seeing that he was clearly unwilling to put in the effort, she could not help but pout.

Otherwise, how could he not be able to come up with an idea?

Discouraged, Little Madam Xia said to Nanny Xia, “Decline these requests and spread the word that we’re going up the mountain to play.

Since it’s for entertainment purposes, we don’t wish to make a big fuss of it.

Tell them to do as they see fit.” Little Madam Xia emphasized the words “play” and “entertainment”, hoping that those people would be smart enough to get the hint.

In any case, she would only arrange the itinerary of the two families.

If someone was daft enough to bother them and make them unhappy, she could always order her men to drag them down the mountain.

Nanny Xia looked at the rarely willful Little Madam Xia and smiled, but she did not dissuade her.

Hence, three days later, with all the preparations in place, Little Madam Xia and Mu Yangling left the two men behind and set off for Cining Temple with the children.

Fan Zijin only sent her two sons onto the carriage and then stepped aside, while Qi Haoran was quibbling with Mu Yangling, “Since the Bodhisattva at Cining Temple is efficacious, why don’t you bring back a Guanyin of Child-giving to worship?” Mu Yangling asked, “Who will fast?” Qi Haoran gritted his teeth and said, “Our whole family will fast for a month in devotion!” What a ruthless oath.

Mu Yangling hesitated for a moment before nodding.

“You said it yourself.

Go and mention it to the children.

As long as they agree, I’ll definitely bring back a Guanyin of Child-giving.” “Just bring it back.

I’ll deal with the children.

They definitely won’t offend the Guanyin of Child-giving,” Qi Haoran said firmly.

Mu Yangling pushed him out.

“Alright, I understand.

You can go back now.” Qi Haoran was reluctant to part with them.

“Just play for three days and don’t stay any longer than that.

Come back early.

We still have to go to the villa to soak in the hot spring in a few days.” Fan Zijin couldn’t stand it anymore and turned his head to the side.

Little Madam Xia, who was in the carriage, was a little envious, while the children were filled with anticipation for the upcoming journey.

Seeing the carriage start to move, they stuck their heads out of the carriage and waved goodbye to the two of them.

The commotion immediately blew away Qi Haoran’s worries.

Qi Haoran only had time to instruct Little Bear, who was riding on the horse, “Take care of your mother and brothers.” Little Bear had already left the convoy and galloped far away, leaving Qi Haoran glaring at his back.

Unable to stand it anymore, Fan Zijin went forward, grabbed his hand, and headed back.

“The carriage is already out on the streets.

How long are you going to keep staring for?

They’ll just be gone for three days, it’s not a life-and-death separation.” “I miss the children…” Qi Haoran explained palely.

Fan Zijin snorted coldly, clearly not believing him.

He really did not understand why his brother was so sentimental.

Cining Temple was in the northern suburbs of Guangzhou City.

As they set off early in the morning, the group arrived at noon.

As it was still the first month of the lunar calendar, the weather was at times warm and at times cold.

Thin and small buds were sprouting on the ground, trembling when the breeze blew.

Located at the top of Mercy Cloud Mountain, the trees at Cining Temple were lush and green, and it felt rather cold.

Therefore, the plum blossoms in the temple were still in full bloom.

The moment they entered, Mu Yangling detected a faint fragrance of plum blossoms.

Mu Yangling was delighted.

“I thought the plum blossoms would’ve wilted by now.

What a pleasant surprise.” Little Madam Xia was also very happy.

“Let’s go take a look later.

If we see some nice ones, we can cut it and come back to place it in a bottle.” Mu Yangling nodded with a smile.

The abbot of Cining Temple personally led the way for them.

The people from the two residences were arranged to stay in the temple, taking up half of the guest courtyard in an instant.

And this was under the circumstances that they did not bring many people with them, and the servants were all stationed outside the temple.

Cining Temple was really not that big.

Cining Temple’s incense offerings were still far inferior to Putuo Temple, Jingci Nunnery, and so on.

If Little Madam Xia had not mentioned it, Mu Yangling would not have known that there was such a temple outside Guangzhou City.

As a result, not only were there few guest houses, but there were also very few inns and houses at the foot of the mountain that could accommodate visitors.

Mu Yangling and Little Madam Xia’s families took up half of the guest houses, and the other half had long been snatched away by the families of Governor Yan and the other officials.

Some families had heard that Princess Consort Rong would come here to offer incense and went to the trouble of staying at farmers’ houses at the foot of the mountain.

But because many others had given up, this place was not filled with people.

But even then, the county magistrate of Ciyun County had a headache over this.

He had to borrow manpower from the government office and Lin County, he sent bailiffs to patrol and preside over the order, afraid that someone would take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Mu Yangling saw that the nuns in Cining Temple, from the abbot to the little nuns, were all dressed in rough clothes with calluses in their hands.

Seeing as there were only two reception nuns in the entire temple, she knew that this was a place of disciplined nuns who were serious about their cultivation.

Mu Yangling bowed apologetically.

“Sorry to disturb your cultivation.” Abbess Huining bowed slightly and said with a smile, “Your Highness, you’re too polite.

Although we’re nuns, we haven’t completely transcended the mortal world.

It’s our blessing to welcome Your Highness and Madam Xia.” Mu Yangling knew that she was referring to the popularity they had brought to Cining Temple.

Seeing that the abbess did not mind, she smiled in relief.

Little Madam Xia did not expect Huining to say this benefit so directly; this made her have a good impression of Abbess Huining.

She said to Mu Yangling with a smile, “She’s straightforward and doesn’t look like a nun.” “There are nuns and monks who like to play games, and there are naturally simple monks and nuns, too.

It’s hard to say which is better, but it’s true that I prefer the latter.” Little Madam Xia said in amusement, “I’m guessing that’s because you’re a straightforward person too?” Mu Yangling winked at her mischievously.

“That depends on who I’m dealing with.” Little Madam Xia couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

She bent down beside her ear and asked, “What about Fourth Brother?” Mu Yangling couldn’t help but glare at her.

Looking at her slightly red earlobes, Little Madam Xia smiled again.

She was so happy that Nanny Xia couldn’t help but look over.

However, the six children had already finished taking a tour around the guest houses.

After deciding how to split up the rooms, with two people sharing one room, they quickly brought their things in.

Seeing that her youngest son was also dragging a piece of clothing and following her eldest son into the room, Little Madam Xia hurriedly stopped him and said, “Little Fu, you’ll be sleeping with Mother tonight.

You don’t have to move your things.” Little Fu huffed and puffed as he turned around and continued to squeeze into the room.

He used his actions to show that he was unwilling to sleep with his mother and wanted to sleep with his older brother instead.

Little An ran out and carried his brother in to put him on the bed, then said to Little Madam Xia, “Mother, I’ll take good care of Brother.

Hurry up and go out.

We’re going to take an afternoon nap.” Little Fu had already crawled into the bed and struggled to pull the blanket over his stomach.

He closed his eyes tightly and pretended that he was already asleep.

Little An also quickly put down the bed curtain and climbed into the bed.

Little Madam Xia was dumbfounded.

What should she do when her sons were so independent?

This time, it was Mu Yangling’s turn to laugh.

She said, “Don’t worry.

Little Fu will look for you at night.

Just let the brothers play by themselves for now.”
