Chapter 34 Going out
A Wu was a little moved, but he didn't look suddenly clear, and he still looked a little worried.
Lu Yuanning ignored her and just waited for her to figure it out.
After a while, she arrived at Zhu's yard, and Lu Yuanmin happened to be there too.
"Mother, third sister." She greeted with a smile.
When Lu Yuanmin saw her, her face, which was originally smiling, suddenly restrained. She did not look directly into Lu Yuanning's eyes, said "I have something to do" and ran away in a hurry.
Zhu was a little embarrassed and explained: "Ning Niang, don't be as knowledgeable as her. Min Niang has no bad intentions, she just feels awkward and doesn't know how to face you."
Lu Yuanning nodded, "I understand, I don't blame Minniang."
In this life, she was already very content with her stepmother and step-sister.
As for the others, she didn't force it.
"Mother, I came to you to discuss with you about going out tomorrow." Lu Yuanning was afraid that Zhu would continue to be embarrassed, so he took the initiative to change the topic.
Zhu was surprised, "You are going to go out?"
Her first reaction was that Lu Yuanning wanted to see Ji's mother and daughter.
After all, in her opinion, Lu Yuanning is a cowardly and introverted lady, and it is impossible for her to go out for fun.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuanning's answer was far beyond her expectations.
"I heard that the incense in Changle Temple is very popular. I want to set up a tablet of immortality for Ah Niang, so that even if I leave Yanling, I can still tent a stick of incense for Ah Niang on the death anniversary of every year, so that she will not be lonely and cold."
Zhu could not refuse such a reason, nor did she dare to refuse. Moreover, she was moved by Lu Yuanning's filial piety and said immediately: "What's the problem? If your grandfather knew about your filial piety, he would definitely support him."
After she said that, she said in a negotiation tone: "Although Changle'an is only open to women and is under the name of the eldest princess, there is definitely no problem in safety. But for the sake of safety, I'd better let Yingniang accompany you tomorrow and let Dalang escort you there again?"
Lu Yuanning had no objection, because in addition to wanting to see Gu Zheng tomorrow, she really planned to set up a tablet of immortality for the mother-in-law Wang.
During her lifetime, Ah Niang was a beautiful lady who was loved and cared for by all kinds of people. She didn't want her to be lonely and cold after her death.
...
Early the next morning, after Lu Yuanning had breakfast, he set out for Changle Temple with Lu Yuanying, Lu Wenting and others.
Lu Yuanmin, who had been hiding from her, actually asked to go with her before leaving.
Zhu also wanted to ease the relationship between their sisters. After reminding her not to cause trouble, she let her go with her.
The atmosphere was very relaxed because Lu Yuanying adjusted it along the way.
The carriage drove for about an hour and Changle Temple arrived.
The main hall of Changle Temple is located on the top of the mountain and requires ninety-nine steps to reach it, which means to overcome all difficulties and face the light.
Because Changle Temple is in full bloom, even though Lu Yuanning and the others set out half an hour earlier, many carriages gathered at the foot of the mountain.
Seeing too many people, Lu Wenting was worried that a few of his sisters would have trouble, so he asked them to sit in the carriage and wait first, "You are waiting here, I'll go and invite the sedan chair carrier for you."
The ninety-nine steps are not long or short, but not every young lady can climb up on foot, especially those noble girls who are kept in the deep boudoir and cannot carry their hands on their shoulders. They are even less likely to risk losing all their appearance to follow any "rules".
After all, rules are dead, and people live.
Therefore, there are many sedan chairmen carrying sedan chairs at the foot of the mountain.
In Lu Wenting's eyes, his sisters were all pretty and expensive ladies, so naturally they could not let them climb up by themselves.
Lu Yuanning and Lu Wenying had no objection. They had no confidence in climbing the ninety-nine steps, so they simply didn't make things difficult for themselves.
Only Lu Yuanmin ignored it, but jumped out of the carriage quickly and said, "You can sit in the sedan chair, I'll walk up by myself."
After saying that, he ignored the reactions of his two sisters and walked straight forward.
"Min Madam!" Lu Yuanying was worried that something might happen to her, so she jumped out of the carriage and followed her.
Seeing this, Lu Yuanning couldn't let his two sisters go up the mountain alone, so he ordered Awu to follow him first, and then got off the carriage.
When Lu Wenting found the sedan chair carrier, he saw that the three sisters were no longer there. When he looked back, they seemed to have already walked up the steps.
Are his sisters so capable?
...
Lu Yuanmin buried his head and walked forward alone, and he had to cross two or three steps in one step, as if he was competing with someone.
Lu Yuanying followed her with difficulty, not daring to relax at all, for fear that she would get lost.
Lu Yuanning had already let Awu follow closely, but he slowly walked up step by step.
Although it is late autumn now, the trees on both sides of the mountain road still cover the sky and are lush and lush, giving people a sense of tranquility and tranquility. The unique sandalwood smell in the temple is floating in the air, which relieves Lu Yuanning's tense nerves since his rebirth.
After about half of the journey, Lu Yuanning was a little tired. She looked around and saw that there were many pilgrims going up the mountain. She thought it was still early, so she found a secluded corner to sit down and prepare to rest for a while before leaving.
In addition, she also needs to think about how to talk to Gu Zheng naturally so that the other party will not notice her intention.
Because she knew very little about Gu Zheng, except for the news A Wu found out, the only thing she could know was that she heard Madam Kong say a few words in her previous life and knew that Gu Zheng was not completely a lady in the eyes of outsiders. She learned riding and shooting skills from Yingwu Hou since she was a child. She learned a good archery technique at the age of twelve, and she was very good at being a tiger girl in the general. However, she never showed these abilities in front of outsiders, especially after marrying the prince, she lived in simplicity and was extremely low-key.
She guessed that Gu Zheng should have a very strong personality in her bones, otherwise she would never have committed suicide just because the prince gave up.
Often, such a strong person has a soft heart that ordinary people do not have. As long as they use the right method, they will not be willing to leave their parents and their younger brothers.
Lu Yuanning was thinking about something, and a woman's crying suddenly came from a distance, and then another voice spoke: "Madam, stop crying. If the Third Young Master has done such a thing, the Third Mrs. will definitely be unhappy in his heart. Why do you have the same knowledge as her?"
The woman still cried and said, "Azhu, what should I do? I dare not look back at home. I really want to go home, but Grandpa and Ah Mother must have not forgiven me yet! Azhu, I have nowhere to go!"
"Miss, please stop talking stupidly. You are the only daughter of the head of the family and wife, and the third young lady of the Gu family. Whether you go back to your parents' home or Gu family, it is natural. How come you have nowhere to go? Besides, you still have the third young master's flesh and blood in your belly. What are you afraid of? It is the third wife who is talking crazy, and the old lady and Mrs. Hou are making the decision for you!"
