Chapter 196 Transfer
After the princess was reminded, she remembered that she came to worship the Bodhisattva and ask for a child. He chuckled and said, "Oh, I was so anxious that I forgot about it. Fortunately, Chu Lang reminded me..."
When she saw that Mr. Chu had turned around and left, she didn't even look at Chen Afu again, so she caught up with Mr. Chu and left together. The group of people disappeared around the corner of the verandah in a short time.
When he couldn't see those people anymore, Chen Afu felt like he was alive. But his legs were still shaking a little, and his body was covered in cold sweat.
Dabao and Alu ran over crying. They were hugged by two guards just now, and they didn't dare to let them pass. When the guardian saw that the princess was gone, he let go of them.
Chen Afu put his arms around each other and comforted him, "It's okay, I'm okay. Come on, let's worship Bodhisattva quickly and ask Bodhisattva to keep my uncle safe and sound."
Now that the princess has been persuaded to leave, she still wants to pay homage to the Bodhisattva.
After hearing this, the two children wiped away their tears and pulled Chen Afu towards the main hall.
Entering the main hall, I worshiped the Bodhisattva and asked the Bodhisattva to bless my uncle Xiao Wangcheng to live safely and reunite him in the future. She also wishes her family safety and health, and that she can find a good husband. Afterwards, I donated fifty taels of sesame oil money, and the remaining fifty taels were donated to Yingxue Nunnery.
As soon as they walked out of the hall, a man who looked like a guard came to Chen Afu and said, "Have you met Abbot Chen?"
Chen Afu nodded and asked, "What's the matter?"
The guard took out a purse and said, "This is given to Miss Chu by my Lord Marquis. Please give it to Miss Chu on your behalf."
Chen Afu was hesitant as to whether he should hand this thing over. She could see the Chu family's hatred for the princess, and Chu Lingxuan's resentment towards his father, not to mention that there was Master Chen in the middle. But just now Lord Chu Hou saved himself again...
Seeing Chen Afu's hesitation, the guard said anxiously, "Girl, this is just a small gift from my Lord Marquis to his granddaughter for the Chinese New Year. Please, I don't have time to delay."
Chen Afu was afraid that he would lure the princess's people back, so he quickly took the purse. I thought about giving the things to Chu Lingxuan after returning to Tangyuan and seeing what he would do with it.
Several people went out, got on the carriage, and headed towards Yingxue Nunnery.
After the carriage entered Yingxue Nunnery, Chen Afu, who had been nervous, finally relaxed.
She got off the carriage, turned around and picked up A Lu and Dabao, and saw Chu Lingxuan walking over in a hurry. Chu Lingxuan couldn't wait for them and was about to go to Lingyin Temple to pick them up.
When he saw that they were back, he felt relieved. He asked, "It's been so long, is everything okay?"
Before Chen Afu could say anything, Chen Dabao burst into tears, ran to pull Chu Lingxuan's clothes and said, "My mother was almost beaten by that princess, Dabao was afraid. Wuwuwu..."
When he howled, Alu burst into tears. The two children were frightened, but they wisely did not cry loudly in the temple. Maybe they also know that it's not safe there, and crying loudly will cause trouble. When they saw someone who could protect them, they all burst into tears.
Chu Lingxuan picked up Dabao and asked anxiously, "Did you really meet that woman? What happened?"
Chen Afu hugged Alu, who was crying loudly, and briefly told what happened.
Chu Lingxuan tried his best to suppress his anger and spat out two words between his teeth, "Damn it." He then said to Chen Afu guiltily, "It was all because of my lack of consideration. I was afraid that the person would recognize my guards, so I only sent two Tangs." The nursing staff of the park are following you. They don’t know how to protect the people they want to protect, and they don’t have the ability to adapt temporarily, which makes you frightened.”
After hearing this, the two nursing staff were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Sir, please forgive me, please save my life."
Chen Afu saw this and said quickly, "I don't blame them, I asked them to protect the child. Besides, there is nothing they can do in that situation."
Chu Lingxuan snorted coldly, "In that case, one of them should go to the front to investigate the situation, and the other should protect you at all times to prevent you from meeting those people. They don't even have this most basic ability to deal with things. It shows that I don't have it." You've wronged them." He lowered his head and said to the kneeling nurse, "Master Chen will plead for you this time. If you go back and get the twenty pieces, I'll beat him to death and sell them out."
The two nurses thanked Chu Lingxuan and Chen Afu before retreating.
Chen Afu felt very sorry because he had caused them trouble.
While they were making a fuss, the old Marquis came over and asked, "What's going on?"
Chu Lingxuan said a few more words briefly, and the old Marquis's face also darkened. He said, "Let's talk about this when we get home. Don't let your mother hear it and make her sad."
Chu Lingxuan nodded, and after comforting the two children, he asked them not to mention the matter in front of Abbot Liaochen. He accompanied Chen Afu and the others to the main hall to worship the Bodhisattva, and donated the fifty taels of sesame oil money before they walked together to the dusty Zen room behind the nunnery.
Yingxue'an is not big, and the layout is relatively compact.
After passing the three main halls and walking across a stone bridge, you will find a sea of flowers. This is the time when plum blossoms are in full bloom. Hundreds of plum blossoms are blooming, creating a spectacular scene. Turn left along the flower path and you will arrive at a quiet courtyard, which is Lingchen's Zen room. Before entering the yard, you could hear Yan'er's giggle, Liao Chen's gentle whisper, and the noise of Qiqi and Huihui.
As soon as he heard those two voices, Chu Lingxuan's tense face relaxed.
Several people entered the small courtyard. Chen Afu, Dabao, and Alu bowed to Chen, and Yan'er crawled on Chen Afu on all fours, shouting, "Auntie, auntie."
Liao Chen smiled and said, "Yan'er is getting better and better. It's all thanks to Ah Fu for taking care of her. Thank you Ah Fu."
She also changed her nickname to Chen Afu. She looked Chen Afu up and down again, smiling with her eyebrows and eyes curved. The bright smile made her calm face bright and lively immediately. She said, "I have only worn this set of clothes a few times. Afu wears it well and it looks good, so I will give it to Afu. It's an old dress, don't despise it."
Chen Afu knew that ancient people were different from modern people. Modern people are not used to giving away clothes they have worn, thinking that it is impolite to give away old clothes. But ancient people were different. If an elder gave something he had used or clothes he had worn to a younger generation, it was a sympathy for the younger generation, expressing a kind of closeness and love.
Moreover, in ancient times, it was important that the elders' gifts could not be refused.
She smiled and said, "Thank you, Abbot."
Liaochen said to Chu Lingxuan again, "Afu is about the same height as me. Go back and find that duck-cheeked fur coat and give it to her. It's a pity that it has been pressed at the bottom of the box."
Chu Lingxuan smiled and relaxed his eyebrows, and nodded in response.
Chen Ahfu said embarrassedly, "How can I be so embarrassed?"
Liaochen said, "I have become a nun, and I don't need those things anymore. I was originally going to..." He paused, swallowed the rest of his words, and said, "It is a gift from the elder, I cannot refuse it."
Chen Ahfu had no choice but to accept it with a smile.
