Chapter 361 Going to Guangfu Temple to Burn Incense



Xia Tian asked Aunt Zhang if she wanted to go to Guangfu Temple to burn incense together.

"Go! I haven't been there for over 20 years. It's a good time to go and take a look. I wonder if the vegetarian food at Guangfu Temple still tastes the same as before."

Aunt Zhang felt a little emotional. Ever since she followed Chen Nian's mother to marry in the capital, she had never returned.

If Shen Nian hadn’t just come to Linzhou to take up her post, she probably wouldn’t have had the chance to return to Linzhou in her lifetime.

"That's perfect! I heard the peach blossom forest around Guangfu Temple is famous far and wide and incredibly beautiful. I want to go see it, too."

"Madam is right. It was so big that you couldn't see the end of it more than 20 years ago. After so many years, I don't know if it has changed." When Aunt Zhang thought of the peach orchard, she was filled with memories.

"There was a severe drought last year. I wonder if it had any impact on the peach orchard." Xia Tian thought about how the crops were basically a failure last year, and he wondered if the peach trees had died of drought.

"I hope everything is fine. You don't know, but my young lady at that time," Nanny Zhang said a little embarrassedly, explaining, "your mother-in-law loved to go to Guangfu Temple the most. One reason was that she liked the vegetarian food in the temple, and the other was to see the peach blossoms.

Sometimes the old lady wouldn't let her go out, so she would ask the Third Master to cover for her, and then she would sneak out to see it."

Aunt Zhang became excited and told Xia Tian a lot of things about how she missed her mother.

After saying that, he patted her hands and said, "The young lady will definitely be very happy to see you and the prince so loving. Now that the lady is pregnant again, I believe the young lady should be able to rest in peace."

As Nanny Zhang spoke, she became sad again and kept reminding her to be careful.

It can be seen that this child is also what Aunt Zhang has been looking forward to.

The next day, after finishing breakfast early, Xia Tian took Nanny Zhang, Ningxiang, Ningxue and others in a carriage to Guangfu Temple to burn incense.

Because there were so many people, Nanny Zhang took Ningyue and Ningshuang in one carriage.

Xia Tian took Ningxiang and four other maids in a carriage.

Mu Feng and Muchen brought eight guards to escort them.

Shen Nian watched them leave before going to the governor’s office.

Today is not a holiday, so we had a smooth journey out of the city.

Guangfu Temple is about eighty miles away from Sangluo City. It may take about three hours to get there by horse carriage, which is quite far.

After leaving the city, on the way to Guangfu Temple, the roads on both sides were full of unknown flowers, which looked very beautiful from a distance.

But Xia Tian couldn’t name them either, and Ningxiang and the others grew up in the capital, so they didn’t know what these flowers were.

"Madam, the scenery along the way is so beautiful!" Ningxue couldn't help but praise the scenery along the way as she looked through the car window.

"Yes, Linzhou is different from Beijing." Although Xia Tian was from the north before, he has been staying in southern cities after work, and he still has deep feelings about the scenery of Linzhou.

"The south is humid, so there are all kinds of flowers all year round. Unlike in the capital, the willow trees are only just beginning to sprout now!"

"That's true." Ningxiang agreed. "I grew up in the capital, and I've never seen such a beautiful view. It's like an ink painting."

"Linzhou's scenery is beautiful, but it's too humid." Cui Ling was still a little uncomfortable, "When I first arrived, I felt that no matter how much clothes I wore, I couldn't stand the cold.

If Madam hadn't made the kang later, I really couldn't stand the humidity here. The bedding always felt wet."

"Yes, that's right. I feel the same way." Cuiyun nodded in agreement. "When I first came to sleep in the bed, I felt that the quilt was never warm no matter how hard I tried. I had to curl up in a ball to sleep at night."

Xia Tian also nodded in agreement, saying that this was absolutely true.

Thinking back to when she first arrived in the south, it was July, the hottest time of the year. Even though the sun was shining brightly outside, the bedding still felt as if it had not dried yet.

It took me almost a year to gradually adapt.

So when I came to Linzhou this time, the first thing I thought of was making a kang.

She is obsessed with sleeping on the kang!

Maybe it’s an obsession from the previous life!

The people in the carriage were laughing and talking about the differences between the north and the south. Mu Feng and Muchen were riding horses on both sides of the carriage, listening to the laughter coming from the carriage, and they also had smiles on their faces.

Ningxue looked at Mu Feng through the car window from time to time. Occasionally, their eyes met, but then they quickly looked away.

Mu Chen, who was standing next to him, felt his teeth ache. "Hey, Mu Feng, if you like her, go ask the lady to be your matchmaker. Wouldn't it be better to marry her off sooner rather than later?"

Muchen thought he spoke quietly, but Xia Tian had extraordinary hearing and still heard it.

It seems that the matter between Mu Feng and Ning Xue can be settled.

Xia Tian glanced at Mu Feng through the car window. Mu Feng blushed a little at Mu Chen's teasing, but he didn't deny it. "I'm not ready yet. I don't know how to tell my wife."

"Why wouldn't you say that?" Mu Chen said unhappily, "You are Mo Ji. Madam is very open-minded. As long as you two are attracted to each other, Madam will definitely agree."

Then he leaned closer to Mu Feng and said, "I heard that Madam is also planning to find husbands for the girls around her. If you are not proactive, be careful that Ningxue will marry someone else."

Muchen deliberately frightened Mu Feng!

This kid and Ningxue have been seeing each other for quite some time, but he hasn't spoken a word yet. If he doesn't force him, he'll probably still be hesitating!

Mu Feng was a little anxious after hearing what Mu Chen said, "Really? Madam is really going to find someone else for them?"

"Of course." Mu Chen rolled his eyes at him. "The lady only has four maids around her, and many people are watching them!"

What Mu Chen said was true. Although they had only been in Linzhou for a short time, the former manager was still in the governor's mansion, and someone had indeed inquired about the maid around Xia Tian.

Although he has not yet approached Xia Tian for help, Mu Chen has a lively personality and is very familiar with everyone in the mansion, so he naturally knew the news earlier.

That's why I'm worried about Mu Feng.

Mu Feng was indeed a little anxious after hearing what Mu Chen said, "Then I'll tell my wife when I get back this time."

"That's right!" Mu Chen walked side by side with Mu Feng.

Xia Tian couldn't help laughing while sitting in the carriage. This Muchen was really mischievous.

I just wonder who Muchen has taken a fancy to?

She could also give him a hand!

Xia Tian's eyes swept across Cuiyun and the others' faces. She also hoped that they could all find their ideal people.

The carriage runs steadily and fast!

Fu Gui’s driving skills are getting better and better!

He is basically her personal driver now.

Besides, Fu Gui is also good at martial arts, so he is most suitable to drive a carriage.

The group chatted and laughed, and time passed quickly. They didn't feel tired at all and arrived at the foot of the mountain where Guangfu Temple was located.

Although Guangfu Temple is also on the top of a mountain, the mountains here are not high and are hilly areas.

Unlike Lingwu Temple in Beijing, it takes a long time to climb the mountain.

Because the mountain is not high, there are no sedan chairs for rent at the foot of the mountain.

Mu Feng was a little worried, "Madam, can you do it yourself?"

Mu Feng was worried that she was pregnant and would be tired from climbing the mountain, so he asked this question.

"No problem." Xia Tian replied with a smile, "This little mountain is nothing. Let's go."
