The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Madam Xiang originally thought that Sanlang loved to hide away from drinking, so she wanted to take this opportunity to let him quit drinking, but...

Sanlang took a mouthful of thin porridge, and after swallowing it, he felt everyone's gaze and barely came back to his senses. Seeing that his brother had expressed his opinion, he had no reason not to go, so he had to put down his bowl and chopsticks and smiled apologetically, "Mother is in her prime, when will she be old and weak? Not to mention that mother is so young, when you go outside, many young women ask you if you are our sister! Hehe..."

He smiled and saw that everyone was still silent. Then he scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed. "Uh... Second brother has already gone, so why shouldn't I go? Hahaha, I'll go, I'll go."

Just then the servant came back and said, "Madam, the carriage is ready."

"Good good."

The lady was very satisfied and was surrounded by a crowd of people as she walked out of the house.

Li Xixuan was also invited and followed. She naturally sat in the lady's carriage. Shanluo got in first and gently pulled her hand.

After getting in the car, Shanluo snuggled up to his wife with a smile on his face, while Li Xiying sat by the window with the curtain swaying slightly.

The gentlemen also got on the carriage at the end one after another.

As the wheels rumbled, the carriage swayed slightly and then set off.

On the way, the lady smiled and said what she had not finished saying in the hall just now, and opened the conversation with them: "Erlang is busy with business all day and has not married yet. He is almost 30 years old. As a mother, how can I not be anxious? When the prime minister's family was still in decline, they found a wife for him. The family wanted to decide the marriage, but the moon was shining on the ditch. He always had an excuse to leave for a few months. When he came home, the girls of marriageable age were already married. There was nothing we could do about him after this happened many times. And Sanlang, since Yiyi left, he seemed to regret it. Although he didn't show it on his face, everyone knew that he always drank to relieve his sorrow. This time, I would take them to Lingshan to relax. Marriage is the most important thing that cannot be forced, and we can only pray for it."

Shan Luo replied softly, "Don't worry, mother. The brothers are still young. Just look carefully and slowly, and you will find a good fate."

The lady smiled, then suddenly sighed: "Our Zhi'er got married just after she came of age. She missed the coming-of-age ceremony, and even missed the wedding ceremony. As a mother, it's a pity that I couldn't see you get married in person..."

As he spoke, the atmosphere became a little sad.

Shan Luo shook her head and said, "Mother, you are wrong. We still have a long time to live together. I would like to stay with you for a few more years and I am not in a hurry to return to Puzhou. This was proposed by my husband."

The lady's eyes lit up slightly, and she couldn't help but smile: "Han Qi is a really good kid."

When Shan Luo mentioned Han Qi, her face flushed involuntarily. They had been married for two months, and Han Qi took good care of her, almost like a worm in her stomach. Nothing she thought of could escape his eyes.

Thinking of this, the lady said helplessly, "I just feel sad that you are young but married early, and your brothers are still young men, but they are not young anymore, how can I ignore them? And your cousin, Aqi is also over 20 years old, but he doesn't like the daughters of ordinary families."

Shan Luo came back to his senses and continued, "So this time we must pray for our cousin Long."

When the mother and daughter made eye contact, their peripheral vision could not help but fall on Li Xiying. Then the lady smiled at her and said, "But today it is better to relax. Praying is just a wish. Xiying can also pray for herself when she goes there. Don't be negative in your heart."

Because Li Xiying had been silent all the way, he just stared blankly after saying a few words when talking about her, and it was obvious that he was worried.

Shanluo agreed, "What my mother said is true. No matter whether a good thought comes true or not, as long as we have hope now, it will be a good thing for the future."

Li Xiying also knew that they were saying this in various ways to enlighten her and help her get out of the haze as soon as possible.

The carriage was shaking, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard slowly, but other than that it was so quiet.

Her eyes were warm and she smiled, "I also have people and things I want to pray for, and I believe that the future has endless possibilities, so I will never let myself be negative."

The road ahead is not something that can be seen at a glance. The world is changing and unpredictable. When you are confused, you can stop for a while, but you can't give up passively. As long as you are still alive, you can't give up the demands in your heart, so she has the leisure to come to Lingshan with them, relax, and calm herself down a little.

After hearing what he said, the mother and daughter felt relieved.

The breeze from the car window lifted the curtains, and a few strands of hair touched her face, making her feel itchy. She felt the air filled with the fragrance of soil and wild flowers, moist and wet.

The road view outside the window is a steep upward slope.

It was obvious that we had arrived at the foot of Lingshan Mountain. On the way up the mountain, the sky was a little darker than when we came, and fine rain continued to fall.

The lady also looked out the window and couldn't help wondering, "The weather is so changeable. It looked clear before I went out, but why is it raining now that I'm in the mountains?"

Shanluo also took a look and analyzed: "Fortunately, the rain is not heavy. We can go to the temple to take shelter from the rain. It doesn't affect anything."

Fortunately, the rain stopped when we arrived at Lingshan Temple. Although the ground was wet, it was not muddy because there was a stone road in front of the temple entrance.

Everyone got off the carriage and settled at the temple gate, where they were all received personally by the abbot of Lingshan Temple.

At that time, there were crowds of carriages and horses outside the temple, and there were crowds of pilgrims inside the temple, all of whom were petitioning, praying for peace in the world and the health of their families.

Several abbots cleared the way and invited the Cui family into the main hall, where they introduced everything in the temple in detail.

The main hall of the entire temple has four entrances. The one you enter is the main hall, to the west is the Guanyin Courtyard, and to the east is the Holy Mother Shrine.

In fact, it was because Erlang had sent people on horseback to come earlier and donated a lot of incense money for his mother, so the abbots were very hospitable and specially burned incense and chanted scriptures for these "distinguished guests of Cui Mansion", and presented them with consecrated objects in the temple, such as rosary beads, Buddha statues, golden toads, folding fans, talisman paper, etc., including maids, servants, old women and grooms... everyone got a share.

The abbot said to his wife with all his heart, "All the worries of the donors will be blown away by the wind, oh Amitabha!"

The lady understood everything and chanted two Buddhist mantras.

Amid the hustle and bustle of the temple, Li Xi stared at the rosary in her hand, which was made of cinnabar. It was slightly cool and red, with twelve beads in total. She always respected gods and Buddhas but did not believe in them. Having them was better than nothing, and she put it on her wrist as a token of her appreciation.

Looking at the ten-foot-tall Buddha statue again, I actually felt a little calmer.

Madam and Shanluo also had prayer beads, while Erlang got a golden toad and Sanlang got a folding fan. They were not worth much, but they were all carried with them to please their mothers.

Afterwards, everyone wandered around the temple and worshipped all the statues of gods and Buddhas devoutly. Only Li Xixuan was lost in the hustle and bustle of pilgrims, his steps slowed down and lagged behind.

The lady thought she was just tired and watched her from afar, then she saw Long Qi following behind her and watching over her, so she felt relieved.

Soon the abbot invited them to wait for the vegetarian meal to be prepared in the temple, and arranged the rooms on the east side for the pilgrims from Cui's mansion to rest.

The lady declined and took Shanluo with her to rest. When she was about to ask someone about Li Xixuan, she caught sight of her figure in the crowd - she was standing outside the courtyard looking at the spring.

Seeing that she was in a good mood, he did not disturb her. He just asked the maid beside him to find a chance to inform the maid beside Li Xiying.

He also asked Erlang and others to go shopping or rest as they wished.

After doing all this, the lady relaxed her brows and went to the side room to rest.
