Chapter 318

~ GO TO BAOHUA TEMPLE ~

Mu Yunyao continued to copy for two days and one night before she finished copying the Buddhist scriptures on the day before Old Master Su’s death . She instructed Jin Lan to place the scriptures in the box properly as she became so tired and sleepy .

Just when she wanted to rest, she heard from Jin Qiao that Su Yaxian came over .

A few days ago, the Eldest Madam had announced that Su Yuyi was sick and that she was extremely ill . The doctors have even been invited to come several times . But in reality, according to her guesses, Su Yuyi had closed the door for teaching the woman that the Eldest Madam had found to dance the worship dance . It should be that she wanted the woman to replace the Moon Fairy from the Moon Palace in order to break all the rumors in the Capital .

Since Su Yuyi couldn’t go to Baohua Temple because she was “ill,” Su Yaxian and others would take her place .

Sure enough, after Su Yaxian entered the door and greeted them, she said, “Little Sister Yunyao, Mother arranged for me to come and invite Aunt to go with you to Baohua Temple to pray for Grandfather . ”

“Thank you, Second Sister, for specially coming over . I wonder who else would be here besides us?”

“Since Father and Second Uncle both had their own work to do and couldn’t leave now, so Eldest Brother took a leave of absence and brought Aunt, you, Sister Yajing, and Sister Yaling to Baohua Temple . Originally, Eldest Sister was going there as well, but unexpectedly, she caught a cold a few days ago . Mother stayed in residence to manage the event in here . As for Little Sister Su You, her health has always been weak, and she rarely goes out of the residence, so naturally she can’t go out either . Second Aunt also has to stay in residence to look after her, so this year, only the few of us will be able to go out . ”

Mu Yunyao smiled slightly, “This is also good . Coincidentally, my mother and I just returned back to the Su family this year, so we should specifically pray for Grandfather . ”

Su Yaxian just smiled and didn’t say anything . She saw Su Qing walk down with her people . After bowing, she followed them out of Jiyue Pavilion and walked towards the inner door .

Someone had long prepared the carriage, so when Mu Yunyao and the rest arrived at the door, she saw Su Qingwu waiting by the side of the carriage .

Su Qingwu stepped forward and bowed to Su Qing, “Greetings, Aunt . The carriage has been prepared . The journey to Baohua Temple is a bit far . Please bear with it for a while . ”

“It’s fine . ” After Su Qing finished speaking, she brought Mu Yunyao directly onto the carriage and headed towards the East City Gate .

Su Qingwu rode on horseback . There were two carriages .

One was given to Mu Yunyao and Su Qing, while the other was given to the Su Yaxian and the rest . The carriage interior was very comfortable and spacious . Even with the servants they brought, it was still so large .

Si Qin brewed a cup of tea and passed it to Su Qing and Mu Yunyao . “Madam, Miss, it will take about an hour to get to Baohua Temple . You can take advantage of this time to rest . You will need to kneel for three days at Baohua Temple . It has been very tiring . ”

Mu Yunyao immediately smiled when she thought of Mama Qi, who had been sent over by the Eldest Madam . Just now, she had been thinking about why the Eldest Madam had sent her over, but upon hearing Si Qin’s words, she understood that Mama Qi was a pair of eyes that the Eldest Madam had sent over . As long as she was a little out of order when she prayed in the Baohua temple, her reputation of being unfilial would spread out in an instant .

It’s just that she heard Yue Wang said that the Eldest Madam had bribed a few people to stir up some trouble on her way to Baohua Temple . She wondered when Eldest Madam doesn’t would choose to let people do it .

Mu Yunyao hadn’t been able to rest well for the past two days because of the Buddist scriptures . The carriage swayed slightly, and before long, she fell asleep while leaning on Su Qing’s shoulder .

Si Qin stepped forward and wanted to support Mu Yunyao, but when she saw Su Qing shake her head in refusal, she quietly sat to the side, constantly paying attention to her surroundings .

When Mu Yunyao woke up again, she was already at the foot of the Baohua Temple . “I actually unknowingly slept for such a long time . Why didn’t Mother wake me up? I’ve slept for such a long time, so your shoulders must be numb and senseless . “

Su Qing smiled at her . “These few days, you have been working extremely hard to copy the Buddhist scriptures . Mother wants to let you sleep for a while more . ”

Mu Yunyao’s heart ached as she stepped forward to help pinch her shoulder . Upon touching it, she saw that Su Qing couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air . In her heart, Mu Yunyao was silently blaming herself for sleeping too peacefully .

However, Su Qing didn’t seem to care at all . She shook her head slightly and said, “Alright, I won’t be so spoiled . Besides, Mother is happy to see you sleeping soundly . ”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t hold back her laughter . She helped Su Qing off the carriage and looked at the Baohua Temple, which was high up on the steps .

Baohua Temple had a history of several hundred years . This temple was the most magnificent ancient temple, had experienced two wars, and had protected many people . As a result, the incense burner here was very flourishing .

Every year, the Su family would come here to pray for their blessings . Therefore, they had already reserved a room in the inner courtyard of Baohua Temple . As soon as they entered the temple gate, monks came to lead the way . Mu Yunyao arranged for people to place the things they brought into the side room . She couldn’t help but walk out of the courtyard to look at the ginkgo trees nearby .

These ginkgo trees had been planted for who knows how many years . The towering canopy of these trees was enormous, and from time to time, yellow ginkgo leaves would fall to the ground .

Mu Yunyao slightly raised her head and stretched out a finger to catch a leaf . She gently smiled and said, “This place is really a good place for people to focus and calm their hearts . ”

“Yunyao?” Su Qingwu stood not far away and looked at Mu Yunyao, who was holding onto a leaf . He couldn’t help but tighten his grip .

Mu Yunyao came to Baohua Temple in order to pay her respects to the Old Master Su, so she wore a simple and elegant dress . She wore a moon-white butterfly pattern plain dress, and even the jewelry on her head had been replaced with silver pearl hairpins, which made her look more and more flawless .

Seeing Su Qingwu, the smile on Mu Yunyao’s face became colder: “Cousin Brother, what can I do for you?”

“Have you finished copying your scripture?”

“Of course, I’ve copied it . That’s my filial piety for Grandfather . Although Eldest Aunt has sent a lot of scriptures, since it’s filial piety, then even if I can’t sleep for a few days, I still have to finish copying the scriptures . ”

Looking at the smiling Mu Yunyao, who was totally on guard, Su Qingwu felt very uncomfortable . He wanted to break her mask and let her reveal her real emotions to him . “Do you know of the rumors about Yuyi in the Capital?”

Mu Yunyao slightly raised her brows . “The matter has been spread like this for so long . Does anyone in the Capital not know?”

“Then does this have anything to do with you?” For some reason, the first person he suspected after the matter came out was Mu Yunyao .

“Cousin said this strangely . I’ve only been in the Capital for a few days, and I don’t even leave the residence, so what ability do I have to arrange this? Besides, I only want to live peacefully, and I don’t want to cause any trouble . Cousin framed me for no reason . Don’t tell me he wants me and my mother to die?”

Mu Yunyao had just finished speaking when a gust of wind blew past, stirring up fine dust, which happened to fascinate her eyes and causing her to raise her sleeves hurriedly to cover herself . She closed her eyes and let out a low cry .
