There were many people in San'in Castle who prayed to God and Buddha, and even the temple prospered. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The most prestigious is the Longhua Temple on the incense burner peak, where people try to climb at the foot of the mountain before dawn every day.

Then burn the pillar incense in the temple and ask for a sign or something, and then go down the mountain just in time for breakfast.

But because it is too lively, the whole Longhua Temple now has little solemnity of the temple, replaced by an impetuous atmosphere.

In contrast, the simplicity and tranquility of the Jingxin Nunnery located in the suburbs are commendable.

A horse-drawn carriage drove on the way to Jingxin Nunnery, the curtain was tightly covered, and the people inside did not have any leisure to enjoy the spring light along the way.

Xie Zhaolin sat in the carriage and quietly didn't say a word, boredoming the green warbler opposite.

"Miss, why did you suddenly think of going to Jingxin Nunnery to see Mrs. Nian? Haven't you been there for almost two years?" The green warbler finally couldn't help but ask.

Xie Zhaolin raised his eyes and looked at her, and his voice was soft. "Nothing, just something I want to confirm. Remember to call me when you arrive. ”

This time, she simply closed her eyes in order to mentally prepare for what she was going to do next.

The Nian An Shitai in Lu Ying's mouth is Aunt Zhang, who became a monk seven years ago, and Xie Zhaolin's nominal biological mother is actually Concubine Bai Xian's personal palace maid Min Min.

Regarding the fact that Xie Zhaolin is actually a princess, Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie know, and Mrs. Xie originally thought that after she entered the palace, she would remember the old feelings and take care of them.

So when she was a child, she was very good to Xie Zhaolin, and after she went to the Xuanyang faction, she often took Xie Yilin to see Aunt Zhang, who was a monk. The purpose is also to let Aunt Zhang say a few nice words in her ear after Xie Zhaolin enters the palace.

But who knew that since Xie Zhaolin entered the palace two years ago, let alone the Xie family, even Aunt Zhang, who had been her mother for seven years, has not received the slightest care, let alone being taken into the palace to enjoy happiness!

This made Mrs. Xie angry, and scolded Xie Zhaolin in her heart for being a white-eyed wolf, so she stopped coming to Jingxin Nunnery by the way.

"Miss, it's here, the slave and maid will help you down." There was the voice of the green warbler outside, and she had already stepped out of the carriage and stretched out her hand to help Xie Zhaolin.

Xie Zhaolin got out of the carriage according to her force, looked around left and right, and found that the place where this meditation nunnery was located was quite remote and barren.

A small nunnery stands on the outskirts of the city gate, surrounded by only a few lonely trees and a large area of thatch, which looks very desolate.

So even though it's a famous hermitage, that's actually it. People still prefer to go to the monk's temple rather than the nunnery, and some people even think that the monks' scriptures are better than the nuns'.

Then her life here should have been very hard.

Xie Zhaolin took a deep breath, stepped into the nunnery, donated some incense money, and asked a little nun to pass on the teacher, while she stood in place and waited.

As she waited, she looked around a little boredly, trying to learn more about the place she had once seen as the only person she had relied on in her life.

Someone in the courtyard was drying scriptures, it was a young girl, wearing a plain blue cotton skirt, and her figure was quite familiar.

Xie Zhaolin was waiting to take a closer look, when the little nun came and invited them in. So she had no choice but to give up and follow the little nun to see Mrs. Nian.

The meditation nunnery was not big, and after a few turns, they came to the courtyard where Mrs. Nian'an was.

A small window opened in the wing room where Mrs. Shi lived, and the warm spring sun poured in, casting a little light on the face of the woman who always or most of the time had a calm expression.

She didn't come out to greet Xie Zhaolin, and she didn't even get up to greet Xie Zhaolin when she came in, just watched calmly as she sat down on the futon and then began to make tea.

As if returning to her childhood, Xie Zhaolin quietly watched her pour water, scald the cup, and complete a series of actions smoothly, and neither of them made a sound.

She remembered that when she was a child, she was afraid of this aunt who was very strict with her in everything, and she had complained, but it was probably more dependent.

Because she was weak when she was young, and she was told to remember her identity and not be as arrogant as the fourth sister, Xie Zhaolin rarely had time to go out to play, and one of the biggest pleasures was to watch her aunt make tea.

Only at that time would she see a flash of tenderness on her aunt's face, which was always cold and hard to her.

And now, that feeling is back.

There was a strange silence in the air at this time, and Mrs. Nian An seemed to see a look called nostalgia in the eyes of the girl opposite, and she was a little strange, so she had to speak first.

"The second lady came to see the poor nuns, and the poor nuns are very grateful."

Specific, grateful, respectful and distant! She hasn't changed at all.

After taking a sip of the freshly brewed tea, a comfortable smile spread on Xie Zhaolin's face, and she also replied respectfully: "Mrs. Shi's craftsmanship is still so exquisite, which is missable."

The same respect and politeness are the same as the strange way they used to get along with mother and daughter.

This was originally a very casual sentence, but Mrs. Nian An seemed to hear something out of it.

You must know that the second lady has not been here for almost two years, and the same behavior is also made by Mrs. Xie and Aunt Liu, who were also very enthusiastic before.

The time is so coincidental, Nian An naturally knows what this means, so the second lady must have something to do when she came here.

She thought so and asked, and after asking, the girl opposite suddenly restrained her smile, sat upright, looked at her very seriously, and threw out a question she had never thought about.

"Master, have you ever dreamed of the third sister?"

Master Nian paused as he poured tea, but did not speak.

Xie Zhaolin didn't care about her, and said to herself: "I have often dreamed of the third sister recently, and I have dreamed of things when we were children. But... I can't seem to remember her face..."

Her voice carried a hint of choked and guilt: "My third sister and I are so good, I'm actually... I can't remember her face..."

Then she really cried, and her tears fell down like beads with broken threads, startling the green warbler and Shitai on the side.

Okay, why did you cry?!

Lu Ying immediately took out a handkerchief to wipe Xie Zhaolin's tears. Mrs. Nian An also began to comfort her: "Second Miss doesn't have to blame herself, you were young at the time, and after so many years, it's normal not to remember."

Xie Zhaolin wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said with a sob: "Mrs. Shi is right, presumably the third sister thinks the same way, so when I saw her yesterday, I could already see her face!"

"Mrs. Shi, you would never have thought that the third sister had grown up like us! looks exactly like the fourth sister, it's really weird! Have you met the fourth sister?" After wiping away her tears, Xie Zhaolin looked at Mrs. Shi in surprise again.

With a snap, Mrs. Nian'an's cup fell, and the tea meandered out, crawling over several cases, leaving a few wet marks.
