Chapter 372 Good Show
Lu Yuntang knew that Su Qingwan was telling the truth, but she felt uncomfortable. Her chest felt heavy and painful, as if there was a piece of cotton wool blocking it.
"Sister-in-law, I know..." Lu Yuntang wiped away his tears, "I will give up."
Lu Yuntang knelt down to admit her mistake to Zhang. Zhang was heartbroken, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly. Su Qingwan said, "You are young and it's not a big deal to be deceived because you are just beginning to fall in love. The weather has been nice these days, so I'll take you to the temple to worship and get rid of the bad luck."
"Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law!" Lu Yuntang wiped away his tears.
At night, Qingyun was helping her wash and dress. There were still some days before the due date. She was in good health and the fetus was also healthy. The imperial physician advised her to exercise more. She also wanted to go to the temple to worship.
Li Yue came in and said, "Princess, the third lady sent someone to deliver a letter to the second young master Chen, and I stopped it."
Su Qingwan seemed to have expected this and took the letter. Lu Yuntang and Lu Jing were siblings from the same mother. Lu Jing was tough and persistent, and so was Lu Yuntang. Even if he knew he was wrong, he might not wake up all of a sudden. If he woke up too quickly, it would make her suspicious. It seemed like he was deliberately showing weakness to make her let down her guard.
The letter made an appointment for Chen Nanhuai to meet at Hanshan Temple.
Su Qingwan was not angry. Lu Yuntang's tone was very calm and she did not say anything out of line. The letters she had written to Chen Nanhuai before did not contain any overly explicit words, but only expressed the girl's hidden thoughts.
Li Yue asked, "Do you want to send it?"
"No need to send him off, he will go to Hanshan Temple too."
Su Qingwan had already made arrangements and took Lu Yuntang out early the next morning. Zhang was still sick, so she rested in the palace and told Lu Yuntang to listen to Su Qingwan.
Lu Yuntang responded obediently.
Hanshan Temple is not very popular, but some noble families in the capital like it very much, and the ladies also say that Hanshan Temple is very effective, especially for marriage. Lu Jing was even superstitious and brought her to Hanshan Temple to pray for blessings.
The mountain road was difficult to walk on. Su Qingwan had a bulging belly and was struggling, so she walked very slowly. Lu Yuntang supported her and walked up step by step without any rush.
Lu Yuntang also told her a lot about Lu Jing. Su Qingwan was fascinated by what she heard. At the same time, she also thought that Lu Yuntang's mentality was pretty good and she didn't seem to be in a hurry to meet a man outside.
She hoped today would be the last time she acted stupidly.
She hates people who often do stupid things and likes to play with smart people.
"Sister-in-law, the imperial physician said this baby is a boy. Is that true? Mother was so happy to hear it's a boy!"
"The imperial physician can only determine whether it's a boy or a girl based on experience. We'll know after the baby comes out. Do you like boys or girls?"
"boy."
"Why?"
"I'm useless, weak in character, and can't protect my mother. Boys should be like my brother, who is upright and can protect the women in the family." Lu Yuntang lost his father when he was young, and he was both afraid of and admired Lu Jing.
Su Qingwan couldn't help but sigh, "Then we think alike."
The two smiled at each other. There were not many people in Hanshan Temple. Lu Yuntang accompanied Su Qingwan into the temple to kneel and pray. Su Qingwan clasped her hands together and devoutly begged the Buddha to bless Lu Jing with safety in Xilin and to bless her to give birth to the child safely.
After Lu Yuntang patiently accompanied her in praying, Su Qingwan felt a little uncomfortable in her abdomen and sat down under a tree to rest. Lu Yuntang wanted to take a walk to relax, and Su Qingwan smiled and said, "Go ahead, I need to rest for an hour. You've been cooped up at home for a while and it's been boring. Relax."
"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Lu Yuntang thought it would take a lot of effort, but he didn't expect it to be so easy. After she left, Su Qingwan gave Li Yue a look, and Li Yue followed her away.
The show is about to begin!
