Chapter 403 Meeting an Old Friend

Bai Xiaofeng's mouth almost reached behind her ears from laughing.

But she kept saying, "No, no, it's just luck."

Mrs. Liu smiled and nudged Bai Xiaofeng with her elbow: "When your Liu Ge'er comes back from the Imperial College, let him help my good-for-nothing naughty boy to read his new article and give him some advice."

"I dare not give you any advice." Bai Xiaofeng waved his hands repeatedly.

Several ladies entered the hall chatting and laughing.

This temple is full of monks and pilgrims, so safety is a given.

Besides, they had already told their daughter to just walk around the temple and not go too far.

Tong Yunpeng was the oldest among them, so he led a few girls to visit the White Horse Temple.

Chu Siying clung to Tong Yunpeng tightly, not wanting to let go for even a moment. Tong Yunpeng himself was helpless.

Finally, Tong Yunpeng wanted to go to the toilet and asked the girls who was going. Xingxing said she wanted to go too, and Chu Siying immediately said, "I'll go too."

Tong Yunpeng was simply helpless, and raised his hand that Chu Siying was holding tightly, "Do you always do this when you go to the bathroom?"

Chu Siying then reluctantly let go of her hand.

As a result, several girls came out of several small toilets, and after waiting for a long time, there was no trace of Chu Siying.

Even the little maidservant beside Chu Siying disappeared.

Tong Yunpeng searched the courtyard but couldn't find it. He got angry and said, "...Here they come again!"

The other familiar girls also shook their heads and sighed.

This was the second time Xingxing and Chu Siying had met. She didn't understand what he meant and looked at Tong Yunpeng. Tong Yunpeng explained, "... before you came, Xingxing, Siying was the youngest among us, and we always treated her like a younger sister. One time, I just took care of a younger girl from another family, and she turned her face away and ran away, hiding in the rockery. We were so scared that we spent the whole afternoon looking for her."

A girl nearby added: "Sister Peng was so scared that she almost cried. But after she found Siying, she saw that Siying had been bitten by insects in the rockery and had several bumps on her face. She was too embarrassed to blame her and instead comforted Siying with gentle words. Since then, whenever Siying was unhappy, she would run away."

After that, several girls sighed deeply.

It is obvious that Chu Siying is a "habitual offender".

But habit is habit, and Tong Yunpeng and the others can't really ignore Chu Siying.

Especially out here.

Tong Yunpeng sighed and looked at the sun.

Although the weather is cold today, the sun is shining brightly. It is rare for girls in the inner circle to go out and play, but at this great time, they have to play such tricks with a capricious little girl.

Even someone as calm as Tong Yunpeng couldn't help but feel a little bit complaining.

However, it was Tong Yunpeng who quickly cheered up. She said to the girls skillfully, "Let's look for it separately. No matter whether we can find it or not, we will all gather at the gate of this small courtyard after one stick of incense."

Several girls nodded, and Xingxing also nodded.

Everyone went to look for it separately.

Xingxing was also in charge of a direction. There were several side halls in that direction, which were relatively easy to find.

Xingxing led her maid into each side hall.

There was a side hall dedicated to the god in charge of marriage. When Xingxing and her maid entered, people who were originally in the side hall looked at them sideways.

Such a young girl has already come to ask for a marriage?

Xing Xing didn't quite understand the meaning of the other person's eyes at first, but the maid blushed when she saw the statue, and hurriedly coughed, raising her voice slightly so that others could hear: "Miss, the only place to hide here is behind the statue. I think even if Miss Chu is ignorant, she can't hide behind the statue, right? How about we go out?"

This is telling others secretly, don't think too much, my lady is not here to seek marriage, she is here to find someone!

Xingxing looked around and saw that it was just as the maid said, the only place where a person could hide was behind the statue.

Although this side hall is called a side hall, because it is in charge of marriage, it has always been very popular with pilgrims, and there is also a monk standing by to receive guests.

If Chu Siying really ran here and hid behind the statue, not to mention the monk in charge of reception, even the pilgrims would probably be able to persuade her out.

Xingxing turned around and was about to leave.

However, before she stepped out of the palace gate, she saw a young woman dressed in a seductive and beautiful manner walking in from the palace gate.

Xing Xing's body trembled slightly and she looked at the young woman in disbelief.

The young woman ignored Xingxing's eyes. She walked to the statue with a swaying waist, knelt on the cushion, clasped her hands together, and muttered something.

Xing Xing lost her composure for only a moment, and quickly recovered, but her eyes still held a hint of disbelief as she stared at the young woman's back.

The maid was a little puzzled: "Miss, what's wrong?"

Xing Xing shook her head lightly, as if she remembered something, and her expression was somewhat complicated.

The maid was even more surprised.

Their usually carefree young lady actually had such a complicated expression on her face? !

The maid was even more curious.

Xing Xing was still somewhat distracted after leaving this side hall where people were seeking marriage.

Despite this, she still went to look for a few side halls at the back and confirmed that Chu Siying was not there before going to the gate of the courtyard where they had agreed to meet.

Fortunately, when Xingxing passed away, Tong Yunpeng had already found Chu Siying.

Chu Siying coquettishly acted on Tong Yunpeng's arm: "Sister Peng, you always find me. I know that Sister Peng treats me the best."

After saying this, he glanced at Xing Xing meaningfully.

Tong Yunpeng was overwhelmed by Chu Siying's coquettishness. He wanted to put on a stern face and teach Chu Siying a lesson, but he didn't know how to start.

Finally, Tong Yunpeng sighed and tapped Chu Siying's forehead: "You, when we are out having fun together, can you please stop being so petty all the time?"

Chu Siying was in a good mood at the moment, so she agreed immediately and shook Tong Yunpeng's arm coquettishly: "I know, Sister Peng."

The search for Chu Siying took quite some time, so after everyone got together, they took a quick stroll and then went to look for their mothers.

At noon, several ladies had ordered vegetarian meals in advance at the White Horse Temple. After the vegetarian meals, the ladies went to listen to the master's lecture as scheduled.

Xingxing wanted to tell Bai Xiaofeng about how she had just met an old friend, but when she saw that her second aunt had an appointment, she paused and didn't say anything else, thinking it wouldn't be too late to tell her on the way back home.

After all, the past is the past, and she never thought that she would meet that man in the capital.

Several ladies went to listen to the sermon, and the girls had nothing to do, so they suggested playing cards together.

Chu Siying glanced at Xingxing provocatively: "...I heard that you are from the countryside. Do you know how to play the cards of the capital?"

Xingxing immediately demonstrated to Chu Siying what it meant to "know how to fight" and won all the copper coins that Chu Siying took out to play with.

But Tong Yunpeng looked very surprised and praised Xingxing for her amazing ability.

Now Chu Siying was angry and ran away again.
