Ling'er was woken up by Qiao'er early the next morning, although she didn't want to get up, but she couldn't delay the trip because of herself, today their family is going to the most famous Yinling Temple in Pingyi County to incense. There is an unwritten custom here, that is, on the morning of August 15, to go to the incense to protect the whole body for a year's journey, whether they believe or not, people will go to the sincere incense, and after a long time, it has become a local custom. Because this hidden spirit temple is located at the top of Qifeng Mountain in Pingyi County, Ling'er and a few people have to take an hour's carriage to arrive, and the so-called morning fragrance can't go too late.

"Ling'er, you lean on me and sleep, it's not okay to sleep like this." Liu saw Ling'er sitting in the car and napping, so he hugged Ling'er in his arms, and Ling'er, who was sleeping in a daze, only felt very comfortable all of a sudden, and did not politely adjust his posture and fell asleep.

"Min'er, do you want to rest for a while?" Now that the Liu family wants to open up, if they can't accept her, then she will only be their teaching grandmother, and they are also her saviors no matter what.

"No need, Aunt Liu, I'll change you in a while, or your legs will be so numb that you can't walk." Min'er had already accepted in her heart that the Liu family would become her stepmother, but Ling'er said that it was not the time to say it clearly.

"It's okay, I'll just change the position in a while, how can you hold her." Seeing that Min'er was no longer as cold as a few days ago, Liu was very happy. Min'er didn't say anything more, but turned her head to look at the scenery outside, she liked to look out of the window when she was riding in the carriage, it was a wonderful feeling as if all the scenery would run.

An hour passed quickly, and when Ling'er was woken up, the carriage came to the halfway point of Qifeng Mountain, and Liu Er said:

"Girl, the carriage can only go up here, there is no way for the carriage to go ahead." In front of it was a stone staircase of one hundred and eighty-one steps, and a group of people got off one after another, and after the Liu family helped Ling'er take care of her appearance, everyone walked towards the temple together. There were people everywhere along the way, and Ling'er felt that the entire Pingyi County had all moved from the Lantern Festival here, but fortunately, everyone was quiet all the way, and even if there was a conversation, they lowered their voices, otherwise it would really disturb the cultivation of the temple.

Ling'er was able to keep up with everyone's pace at first, but she fell behind a lot as she walked, Min'er and Liu's had to stop and wait for her, and after a few times, Ling'er said embarrassedly:

"Sister, Aunt Liu, you go first, Qiao'er and I will go slowly." Seeing her say this, they said a few more words before leaving, Ling'er couldn't help but introspect herself when she saw their brisk steps, could it be that she was negligent in exercising?

When Ling'er came to the temple, Min'er and Liu's finished offering incense, and the two saw that Ling'er's little face was tired and red, and their hearts ached, and they asked the little novice to know that there was an open space on the right hand side of the temple, where it was relatively quiet, and they could go there to rest. A few people went there without saying a word, only to see that there was a pavilion there, Lan Xin and Qiao'er took out the cushion from the baggage and put it on the stone bench in the pavilion.

"Ling'er, are you sick, why are your faces so red?" Min'er saw that Ling'er's face was still red after sitting for a while, and she couldn't help but worry.

"It's okay, I've been staying here for a while and haven't moved much, plus I slept a little late last night, don't worry." Ling'er didn't feel anything, she just felt a little tired.

"You sit here for a while, and I'll go to the temple and ask if there is a vegetarian meal for guests today, and if there is, we will use the fast and then go down." Liu stood up, according to common sense, the temple should be prepared at this time, but I just don't know if they can share it.

"Girl, then I'll go down the mountain and tell the lord about them, otherwise they will be in a hurry." Qiao'er also stood up.

"No need, Qiao'er, you're still young, accompany the girls here, I'll go, and bring some food and drink by the way, there are so many people today, the food in the temple may not be able to." Lan Xin pressed Qiao'er on the stool and walked away with Liu.

"Sister, Lan Xin is more and more like you now." It's really like someone, Lan Xin didn't have this kind of personality before, but it's good this way.

"Jing Hu said, Lan Xin's grown up, how can she always be the same as when she was a child? Haven't you changed a lot? Min'er said as she took out the amulet she had just begged for.

"This is the talisman I begged for, one for you and one for me." Ling'er took the amulet into her purse and asked.

"Sister, will you ask for one for our father?" It's not like Min'er's style.

"Aunt Liu begged, Dad can't bring that much." Ling'er saw that Min'er took it for granted and didn't have any bad emotions, so she put her mind at ease, and it seemed that Min'er really accepted it.

"Sister, I don't know what to do." Ling'er wanted to hear Min'er's thoughts.

"What's the matter?" Min'er saw Ling'er's frowning appearance, and she didn't get nervous.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I know bad news from a friend's friend, and I've been wondering if to tell her for the past two days." Ling'er looked at Min'er expectantly.

"What's the matter, if it's me, it depends on whether she cares about that friend, if she cares, tell her, if she doesn't care, don't know." Min'a didn't think it was a problem at all.

"It's also huh." Ling'er didn't get anything useful from Min'er, so she had to talk to her about other things.

After Liu went to the temple to ask, he learned that the temple does not receive pilgrims today, because a certain family in the county practices things in the temple. Liu had no choice but to go down the mountain with Lan Xin to prepare for food, and then went up the mountain with Zhao He and others to find the young lady, who knew that when they arrived at the top of the mountain, they found that Tinglizi had actually changed people, and Min'er and the two were gone. This frightened a few people, and they hurriedly searched around, but fortunately there was a meadow about five hundred meters ahead, and the young lady was sitting there.

"You two girls almost scared my dad to death, did you change places at first?" Zhao He asked when he saw him.

"Dad, we just came over, and we wanted Qiao'er to meet you." Ling'er explained.

"It's so sunny, why not in the pavilion? Someone is bullying you? Liu Shi looked back at the pavilion, but unfortunately the ground here was low, and only the tiles on the top of the pavilion could be seen.

"No one bullied us, it's just that after you left, people came over one after another, and we couldn't sit down when we wanted to wait for you to come, so we might as well find a quiet place." Min'er said while helping Lan Xin and Liu sort out their food.

"Aunt Liu, where did you sell these things? It's really complete. But isn't it good for us to eat this quietly at the Buddha Gate? Ling'er asked, pointing to the roast chicken.

"It's okay, the place we are where we are now is not within the scope of the temple, and besides, we will go down the mountain directly in a while and not pass by the temple." Liu explained.

After a simple lunch, Liu dug a pit and buried the leftover bones, and after all were tidied up, everyone took a break and went down the mountain from the forest trail next to it, everyone enjoyed the scenery along the way while walking, they grew up in the mountains since they were children, and they thought that it was not strange for this mountain scenery. But I didn't expect that the scenery here is completely different from Hongsongtun, and a few people are very happy to watch and chat, Ling'er can't help but miss the camera, but unfortunately he can't draw.

"Master, you see there's a lake over there, should we go over and have a look?" Zhao An, who followed, pointed not far away and said.

"Okay, let's go take a look, and get some water to drink." Zhao He saw Liu's yearning eyes, and made a decision without saying a word.

It looked close, but it was much farther to walk, and it took everyone about an hour and a half to reach the lake. It is a medium-sized lake with a full moon shape, and the breeze blows through the surface of the lake, which is slightly wrinkled, and it looks sparkling and very pleasing to the eye. Ling'er saw that there were many stones by the lake, so he ran over to look, and when he got closer, he was surprised, these stones were actually connected as a whole, and he didn't know that it took tens of thousands of years to form. Min'er also ran over, and the sisters gathered around these stones of different shapes to taste, and Zhao He used the reeds by the lake to weave a few straw hats to shade them.

"Sister, I want to go to the capital, you can go with me." Ling'er's sudden change of topic made Min'er a little overwhelmed for a while.

"To the capital? Why should the good ones go there? Min'er asked puzzled.

"Actually, I had a plan, but I have been busy all the time, and now the business of Yangshengtang is stable, and Uncle Liu, the shopkeeper, doesn't need me to worry about it at all, so I want to go to the capital to have a look." Originally, Ling'er planned to go to the North County Mansion next year, but now that something like that happened to him, he had to change his plan.

"When are you going to leave? I have to explain the affairs of the family before I can leave, and the Jiang family wine shop can't leave it alone. "Min'er is now mainly responsible for the two wineries and the deer farm, and as for the workshop, Zhao He is mainly in charge.

"I want to leave early, before Chongyang." Ling'er wanted to leave tomorrow, but she was afraid that Min'er would be suspicious.

"Then I'll go home tomorrow, and I'll come to you in two days, and we'll go straight away." Min'er thought that Ling'er was going to open a shop or something.

"Okay, let's talk to my dad in the evening." Ling'er looked at the small interaction between Zhao He and the Liu family, and her heart was warm.

As the sun turned west, everyone got up and walked down the mountain, because they went to the lake whose name they didn't know, so they had to walk a lot more than the others, and they were too tired to get home. Ling'er even fell asleep without eating, and before going to bed, she still thought about how bad her physical fitness was? It seems that in the future, we should pay attention to doing some exercise appropriately.

The next day, Min'er and Zhao He and others went back to Hongsongtun, because Min'er had something to do, so they left without waiting for Ling'er to wake up, and when Ling'er woke up and knew that she was so angry.

"Qiao'er, why didn't you wake me up?" Qiao'er saw Ling'er's expression and knew that the girl was really angry.

"It was ordered by the master and Miss Min, they said that you should sleep more, it is not okay to not sleep enough when you are growing your body." Qiao'er's voice was very soft, and Ling'er looked at her frightened appearance, and most of her anger disappeared.

"Don't make such mistakes in the future, remember that you are my girl, first of all, you have to listen to me." After Ling'er finished speaking, she stopped talking, and Qiao'er hurriedly retreated when she saw this.
