Chapter 527: Qing Xiu

Accompanied by several teachers, Catherine and Arabella followed behind the head of the school and walked out of the school under the curious gaze of many students, and the extended luxury car that had sent them over had been informed in advance and was waiting at the school gate.

The students were just looking at the three nuns, not even aware of a more noteworthy presence flying in the sky.

The three nuns sat in the back seat of the extended luxury car, and the driver closed the door for them, and the excellent sound insulation performance blocked the noise outside.

The driver started the car smoothly and drove towards the hotel.

"Did anything good happen?" the head of the yard looked up at Arabella, who was sitting across from her.

In fact, not only the head of the house, but also the teachers who accompanied her just now noticed that it was only an hour away, and the usually quiet Arabella seemed to be a different person, her cheeks were covered with a smudge-like red glow, and there was joy that could not be concealed between her delicate eyebrows, and her breathing became short, if she was not a nun, others would probably suspect that she had found a lover who was in love......

Catherine was also very happy, but firstly, she was not the party herself, and secondly, she also had hidden worries in her joy, so she could still control herself.

"Pastor ......" Arabella touched her cheek, which was hot with excitement, "I have good news for you—maybe my eyes will be able to see later!"

"Oh?" the head priest was surprised, after the sisters went to the convent when they were children, she learned from Catherine that Arabella was born blind and had little chance of treatment.

"Chan Ji and Teacher Lu gave me a treatment plan, asked Michelle to stimulate my optic nerve, and they said that as long as my optic nerve redevelops, I can operate on my eye, and then I can see!"

Arabella was so excited that she spoke quickly, and she wanted to let the shepherd understand at once, but she was too anxious to speak, and Catherine added a few words for her, and took out the medicine prescribed from the pharmacy for the shepherd to see.

The pastor nodded, "If so, it is indeed a good thing, but have you forgotten to thank the Lord for the gift?"

"I'm sorry!"

Arabella quickly knelt down, clenched the cross on her chest with both hands, lowered her head and closed her eyes, and said words in her mouth to express her gratitude to God, but fortunately, the space in the car was relatively spacious.

The head priest placed a palm on top of her head and recited, "Though the Lord has given you bread with affliction and water with affliction, your teachers will no longer be hidden, and your eyes will see your teachers." Turn to the left or to the right, and you will hear a voice behind you, saying, This is the way, walk in the midst of it. ”

After Arabella finished praying, the head of the yard removed his palm, and the former subconsciously wanted to stand up, forgetting that he was in the car at this time, but fortunately Catherine was quick and put her palm between her head and the roof of the car before her head touched the roof, and it didn't hurt her.

The head of the yard looked at her clumsy appearance and said dissatisfiedly, "Did you neglect to pray during your outings?"

"No, no, absolutely not, we have been praying every day, and we have never slackened!" said Arabella, waving her hand in a panic.

Catherine also quickly clarified: "No matter where we are, we always pray every day, dare not or forget!"

The head of the house pale, "Prayer is not recited with your mouth, what is important is not the form of prayer, but whether you pour out your heart to the Lord with your heart, whether it is thanksgiving, praise, repentance, or grace, are you seriously abiding by the creed?"

"Yes, we always have!" said the sisters at the same time.

"That's good. The shepherd looked away and looked out the window.

The two sisters breathed a sigh of relief, especially Arabella, who was so nervous that she sweated out, and the joy before also flew out of the clouds, she originally wanted to talk about Michelle's ability to communicate, but now she forgot about it when she was nervous.

In fact, the head priest is usually quite gentle in the monastery, but he is never ambiguous on such matters of principle.

The interior of the car is top-notch in terms of décor and equipment, with no tremors to be felt during the drive, soft music at low volume flowing from the hidden stereos, and high-end drinks in the on-board refrigerator at all times.

"The hospitality at Momiji Academy was very attentive, but some of it was too luxurious. The head priest stroked the velvet side of the chair and said, "That's how you live every day here?"

"No, we don't usually live in a hotel, nor do we live in a dormitory at Momiji Academy, but in a rental apartment building, where the conditions are ...... It's ordinary, about the same as a monastery. Catherine immediately explained.

"Really?"

The head priest said lightly, "Mortals indulge in worldly pleasures and forget the grace of the Lord. The ascetics of ancient times, who purified their souls through self-abuse and even self-harm, went astray, because human sin cannot be restrained by penance, and only the power of the Father can overcome sin. Still, we must not allow ourselves to slide into the abyss of pleasure, and meditation can free us from the shackles of the physical body and bring our souls closer to our Heavenly Father, no matter where we are. ”

"Yes. Catherine listened respectfully, and carefully defended the Red Leaf Academy: "I think their hospitality is due to the fear of poor etiquette, after all, the east side pays attention to etiquette ......."

"I know, so I didn't say anything to my face, and when I entered the world, I should follow the customs, but I should not indulge myself by following the crowd. The head priest asked, "How far is your usual place from here?"

"It's not too far, it's in that direction. Catherine pointed in the direction of the rental apartment building.

"Well, take me to see it. ”

The shepherd ordered Catherine not to say anything more, and told the driver to change her destination through the intercom in the car.

The driver is well-trained, and while carrying out the instructions, he also quietly reports the change of destination to the Momiji Academy to avoid accidents.

In this way, this elongated luxury car, which attracted countless eyeballs as it drove all the way, changed direction, left the bustling downtown area, and drove towards the remote urban-rural junction.

In the rental apartment building, the landlord's aunt had just finished lunch and was napping in a rocking chair on her back, enjoying a quiet afternoon.

She was woken up, stood up and craned her neck to look outside, wondering what was happening.

I saw a stretched luxury car that was incompatible with this dilapidated and narrow street was clumsily turning the corner, its body was too long, and the turning radius was too large, even if the driver's driving skills were good, it was also anxious to see, and the phenomenon of random parking in the street was very serious, and the already narrow street was accounted for by illegal parking, tricycles, and shared bicycles that fell to the ground, as well as skateboarding, Cyclists weave their way through it, sweating for the bears, and if the paint on the bike is scratched, a beating awaits them from their parents.

Her first reaction was that the driver of this car was probably in the wrong place by navigation software......, right? No, this neighborhood is full of poor people who can't get along with this kind of luxury car.

She left the caretaker's room, walked to the door of the apartment building, crossed her waist and raised her throat, and gestured at the luxury car: "Go back! Don't drive forward, your car in front of you can't turn around! If you drive further, the road will be blocked!"

Probably hearing her shout, the luxury car stopped at the door of the apartment building, but it had no intention of reversing, and it turned off.

A well-dressed driver with white gloves got out of the car and opened the back door amid the yelling of the landlord's aunt.

The landlady rubbed her eyes and said to herself, "Aren't the two nuns who got out of the car the two nuns who live on the third floor?"

That's right, the people who live on the third floor are all problem girls, and even if they are nuns, they must be problem nuns.

Huh? And a third one?

The third strange nun was much older than the other two, and had no folds on her face, but she was obviously not a teenage girl, and judging by the attitude of the driver and the other two nuns towards her, she must have been a big man of status and status.

At this time, the landlord noticed that the wheel cover of the wheel of the luxury car was not printed with a car logo, but a striking red leaf, and then looked at the front of the car, there was also a flag with red leaves.

Could this be ...... Momiji Academy's car?

"Gregor, we live on the third floor here, do you want to go up and have a look?" asked Catherine.

The shepherd surveyed the dilapidated apartment building and the equally grizzled streets.

The landlord coughed dryly, and drank back a little embarrassed to see the lively little children, if this is a distinguished guest who even treats the Red Leaf Academy as a guest, and sees two nuns living in a shabby place like hers, it is estimated that ...... Even if you don't lose your temper, you'll definitely be disgusted.

However, instead of losing his temper or disgust, the head priest nodded as if he was satisfied, as if he was not facing a dilapidated apartment building, but a five-star luxury hotel.

"Although this place is simple, the people are simple and quiet, and it is a good place to live. ”

The landlady could understand what the shepherd said in English, but she suspected that she had misheard, for for for the first time in her life she had heard someone say "shabby" so tactfully, she herself was embarrassed to hear it, and it was estimated that if the older nun mixed in with the group, she would definitely be able to mix with the group leader.

"Who is this?" asked the head pastor.

"Oh, this is our landlord, she usually takes good care of us and keeps the neighborhood safe. Catherine introduced.

The landlord's aunt couldn't help but be ashamed, if collecting rent and utility bills was considered "care", then she was indeed taking care of it.

The head of the yard smiled and nodded to the landlady, who nodded awkwardly in response.

"Since you're already here, take me up and have a look. ”

"Here, please, be careful with the steps you step on. ”

Catherine pulled her sister to lead the way in front, and the landlord's aunt flashed sideways, scratching and scratching not knowing where to put her hand, but out of the spirit of the contract, she still couldn't help shouting in the back: "Only one person can live in each room!

Wouldn't she have lost a lot of theoretical income if she allowed two or three tenants to squeeze into a room? Although she didn't think that a person in that kind of luxury car would want to live in one of those pigeon nests upstairs, she still had to say what she had to say.

When the sisters moved in, she had planned to make an exception and allow the two of them to live together if they asked, after all, the blind little girl was lovely and pitiful, and needed to be taken care of, but the sisters asked for two rooms.

The head priest could understand Chinese, and when he heard this, he was even more pleased to say: "The precepts of celibacy, dieting, meditation, and secular absence, except for the last one, which is forced to be changed by the situation, it seems that you have followed it very well. ”

None of these precepts are entirely literal, such as dieting is not about starving, but not about eating as much as you want, and not about indulging in appetites, and that celibacy does not mean that you are single, and that nuns are not single?

The sisters felt a lot more relaxed, but they didn't expect that they chose to live here for convenience and were affirmed by the head of the yard......

The three of them went up the stairs to the door of rooms 304 and 305, where Catherine opened the door.

When the head priest walked inside, this kind of one-room, one-bathroom mini room would be cramped with a few more people, with only a single bed, a narrow table, a backless chair, a simple hanger, and nothing else, and the clothes that were not used often could only be stuffed into the suitcase.

There was a Bible on the narrow table, a change of nun's clothes hung on the hangers, there were no electrical appliances in the room except flashlights, there were no dolls, pillows, or other playthings that are common in girls' rooms, and there was no way to even take a shower in the bathroom.

The same goes for the other room next to it.

The palm-sized pigeon's nest was soon finished, and the more the yardmaster looked at it, the more satisfied he became, it was even more simple than the monastery, and it was relatively clean, simple and not dirty, it seemed that these two children were indeed not polluted by the world, and had been abiding by the way of pure cultivation.

"Catherine, you go downstairs and ask the landlord if there is any room available, if so, tell the driver, we are not going back to the hotel today, please help us cancel the room, I will also stay here with you during my stay here, thank him for his service by the way." The head priest commanded.

"Yes......"

Catherine had mixed feelings, and she certainly could not persuade the head of the house to stay in the hotel and let the two sisters live here, because the implication of this persuasion was that living here was "suffering" and staying in a hotel was "enjoyment", although this was true, it was not right to think so.

The sisters have long been accustomed to Qing Xiu, and they are also used to this room, and they do not feel that it is a pity to move out of the hotel, although the hotel is good, but it always makes them uncomfortable.

It's just that...... When Jiang Chanji and the others come back, they will definitely drop their jaws in shock.
