At night, Cheng Zongyang came back and didn't even mention Zhou.

"Master, I prayed to the gods for this child, but I haven't fulfilled my wish yet. Now that the pregnancy is stable, I want to go to the Huguo Temple to fulfill my wish."

Cheng Zongyang frowned. He attached great importance to Lin's baby and he must not let anything go wrong.

But as for ghosts and gods, it is better to believe in their existence.

"Go ahead. I'll go with you."

I started work on the 16th day of the first lunar month, and I feel at ease having him accompany me.

"Okay, Yuan'er said that she has had nightmares recently, and she dreamed about the girl in Qiu Shui Yuan. I want Yuan'er and Yun Ge to go together. Let Yun Ge recite scriptures for that girl."

"Okay, I have an appointment tomorrow, so let's schedule it for the day after tomorrow."

……

The next day, Cheng Jiuyuan was wiping her guqin when Song Lan came with Zhu Jin.

"Sister Cheng, I'm here to wish you a happy New Year."

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at her and the girl carrying large and small bags, and asked curiously: "What are you doing?"

"I should have come to wish my sister a happy new year, but I went back to my grandparents' home with my mother on the second day of the new year and only returned to Beijing yesterday. These are the specialties from my grandparents' home in Gucheng. They are delicious. I brought them for you to try."

"Thank you."

"Sister Cheng, are you free tomorrow? Let's go out and play. It's boring to stay in the house all day.

Cheng Jiuyuan was about to answer when he saw Mu Jin come in.

"Miss, the maidservant beside the Madam came over and said that we will leave for the Huguo Temple at noon tomorrow, and the master will go too."

"You guys are going to Huguo Temple?" Zhu Jin's face was full of joy. "I'm going too."

Cheng Jiuyuan had no reason to refuse, and the two of them ate snacks and drank tea in the room, chatting about recent interesting news in the capital. Most of the time, Zhu Jin was talking and Cheng Jiuyuan was listening.

At the end of the Si hour, Cheng Jiuyuan invited her to have lunch, but Zhu Jin refused.

"I had guests at home, and every time the aunts saw me, they would be weird and say I didn't look like a girl, so I ran away. But my mother told me to go back for lunch, otherwise it would be too rude."

Cheng Jiuyuan walked her out of Feiyuan Pavilion and towards the mansion gate.

"Sister Cheng, I'll wait for you at the city gate tomorrow."

"it is good."

Cheng Yunge, who was passing by, stopped and took a look.

Zhu Jin also wants to go to Huguo Temple.

The fourth princess has recently been looking for an opportunity to teach Zhu Jin a lesson. Isn’t this a good opportunity?

After seeing Zhu Jin off, Cheng Jiuyuan returned to his room and asked Mu Jin to deliver the letter to Ruyi Tower.

Ruyi Tower is Chu Heng’s property, so there are ways to contact him.

……

In the early morning, the bright light on the eastern horizon dyed the sky light blue.

After breakfast, Cheng Jiuyuan brought two maids to the front hall.

Seeing that only Cheng Yunge was there, Cheng Zongyang and Lin had not come yet.

The two of them were too lazy to even maintain superficial harmony. They didn't say a word and sat separately waiting for Cheng Zongyang and his wife.

Not long after, Cheng Zongyang and Lin came together, and they seemed to have a very good relationship.

"Alas, this pregnant woman is sleepy and got up late, making you sisters wait for a long time."

Cheng Jiuyuan smiled and said, "Yuan'er just arrived too."

As she said this, she stood up and walked naturally to Lin's side, and Lin also took her hand affectionately.

The two looked more like sisters. Lin looked at Cheng Zongyang and said, "Let's go," then walked out with Cheng Jiuyuan, talking and laughing.

Cheng Zongyang followed behind the two of them, and for a moment they really looked like a loving family.

Cheng Yunge looked at the scene with a dark face.

She and Zhou had also held Cheng Zongyang's arm, talking and laughing, with an extra Cheng Changchuan following behind them.

Now that Aunt Zhou and Cheng Changchuan are both dead, she has become redundant.

But in just half a year, everything has changed.

There were two carriages parked outside the mansion. Cheng Zongyang and Lin got on the front carriage together.

Cheng Zongyang stuck his head out and said, "You sisters, take one."

Since Cheng Zongyang said so, Cheng Jiuyuan couldn't refuse.

She got on the carriage first and sat down, and Cheng Yunge followed her.

This car was specially built by the Pei family for Cheng Jiuyuan. It looks gorgeous on the outside, but it has a different world on the inside.

Persian carpets, exquisite silk curtains, and delicate golden lotus incense burners emitting wisps of light blue smoke that smelled very pleasant.

There was a soft couch covered with a thick deerskin blanket, and there was also a small table in the car. Even the white jade vase with flowers on the table was made of white jade.

Not to mention the fine wood used for the body of the car, even the tall and smooth-coated horses in front of the car were carefully selected.

Cheng Yunge had seen a lot of good things in her previous life, so she was naturally a person who knew what was good. She had never understood why those people in her world were obsessed with luxury cars, but now she understood.

The carriages she had ridden in before would make her back ache after a short journey, but this time she did not feel the slightest bit of bumpiness.

The sour feeling in my heart couldn't help but come out again.

It’s really nice to have a rich grandparent.

Although she was not physically hurt while sitting in the carriage, she felt somewhat humiliated in her heart.

She really couldn't understand why she could absorb the heroine's luck in her previous life, but couldn't do it in this life.

She had never suffered such a thing in her previous life.

Cheng Jiuyuan was dozing on the couch, listening to Cheng Yunge complaining to the monster in his heart, so it wasn't too boring.

When they arrived at the city gate, Cheng Jiuyuan heard Zhu Jin calling her from outside the car.

The carriage stopped, Zhu Jin jumped onto Cheng Jiuyuan's carriage and happily opened the curtain.

"Sister Cheng!"

The moment she saw Cheng Yunge, her smile faded.

"Why are you in this car?"

"Miss Zhu, what you said is strange. I am Yuan'er's sister. No matter what, I am closer to her than you are, right?"

Zhu Jin frowned, but couldn't find the words to refute.

Cheng Jiuyuan walked forward, pulled her over, and sat on the couch with her.

"Sit tight, the carriage is about to move."

Zhu Jin raised his eyebrows proudly at Cheng Yunge.

She and Sister Cheng sat on the couch, while Cheng Yunge was only fit to sit on the wooden platform at the side.

Cheng Yunge sneered in his heart.

This idiot, the Fourth Princess will teach her a lesson, I hope she can still laugh then.

When Zhu Jin lifted the curtain just now, Cheng Jiuyuan saw Mrs. Zhu.

"Aunt Zhu is also going to Huguo Temple?"

"Yes, there are many people burning incense in the first month of the lunar year. When my mother heard that I was going, she wanted to follow me."

Cheng Jiuyuan handed the storybook to her, and the two of them sat together reading the storybook, eating snacks, and occasionally discussing the characters in the storybook. Cheng Yunge was left aside.

The carriage set out at Chenshi and did not stop until the end of Sishi, a full hour and a half in total.

"Girl, we have arrived at the Huguo Temple."

Cheng Jiuyuan got off the carriage and felt that the surroundings were quiet. There were many pilgrims, but no one was making any noise. Only the faint sound of Buddhist chants and the distant ringing of bells could be heard.

Outside the temple, there are towering old trees, many of which are hung with red ribbons, which are for devout believers to seek marriage.

On the left side of the temple stands a stone the size of a baby. Many young ladies go forward with piety to touch it. The surface of the stone has been polished very smooth. This is for praying for a child.

"Let's go." Cheng Zongyang helped Lin up the stairs and walked inside.
