Chapter 69

"Why didn't you see that lady Chang?"

During the morning class in the Three Buddha Hall of Dayun Temple, a little girl kneeling next to him whispered to Yao Xia.

The monks were chanting sutras, and Yao Xia, who folded his hands piously in front of him, opened his eyes and glanced at the friend: "Sister Chang was so frightened yesterday, she should take a good rest... "

"That's true..." The girl wanted to ask something more, but when she received the displeased gaze from her mother, she quickly closed her eyes and listened to the scriptures.

Yao Xia murmured something, and murmured: "Amitabha, by the Lord Buddha, there is a reason for the failure of Chang's sister to come, but the believer is willing to give half of her merits to Chang's sister..."

The corner of the girl's mouth twitched when she heard it, and said in a low voice, "With your little merit, it's only the size of a grain of rice, and the Buddha has to break it up for you..."

Yao Xia is dedicated and extremely devout: "Don't disturb me earning merit..."

Sister Chang can rest and recuperate in peace, let her work hard to earn merits to support Sister Chang!

At the same moment, by the spring in the mountain village behind the Dayun Temple, Xi'er looked at the girl who was carrying two wooden barrels to fetch water, feeling quite struggling.

She really didn't expect that the way for the girl to accumulate merit is not to do morning classes, but to help the monks in the temple to carry water.

In the past half an hour, the girl's heavy Lu Zhishen behavior of carrying two buckets of water back to the temple has been repeated three times.

Xi'er's eyes fell on Ah Zhi again——

Ah Zhi had just come out of the nearby woods, and now there was a large bundle of firewood on his back.

Xi'er was very anxious when she saw it, and felt that the bundle of firewood was not on Ah Zhi's body, but on her precarious career.

At this moment, a monk carrying an empty bucket and a shoulder pole turned back, Xi'er was heartbroken, and stepped forward to snatch the bucket from the shoulder pole: "Master, let me do it!"

Xi'er carried the bucket and walked like flying, and came to Chang Sui Ning's side: "Girl, I will accompany you!"

Chang Suining looked over uncertainly, but saw that the little girl quickly filled two buckets of water and picked them up easily.

Chang Suining: "?"

She stretched out her hand and squeezed Xi'er's arm.

Under the soft sleeves of the shirt, the little girl's seemingly slender arms are actually too bulging and strong.

Chang Suining, who is still invincible now, was silently envious for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Have you practiced secretly?"

Xi'er lowered her head embarrassingly: "Chang's family, Chang's soul... Previously, the girl didn't like these things, she only liked to recite poems, so the servant girl didn't dare to show it."

Chang Suining: "..."

It was she who underestimated the depth of Chang's army's rule of law.

In this family, probably only Ah Li is really weak.

"But the maidservant didn't deliberately deceive the girl!" Xi'er quickly explained: "The maidservant does this just to serve the lady better..."

After all, in the past, I used to accompany the girl every day to mourn the spring and autumn, shed tears anytime and anywhere, wipe the tears and give comfort to the girl, the whole set is also a physical labor——

"In short, whatever a girl needs a maidservant, that's what a maidservant is! A maidservant can learn everything!" The little girl's eyes were filled with the word "sincerity".

Ah Zhi passed by with firewood on his back: "..."

Instead, she has a single competitiveness and lacks diversity.

"Very good." Chang Suining nodded affirmatively, and said, "Let's go."

Seeing that the girl had no intention of blaming her, Xi'er was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly.

The three master and servant were walking on the bluestone path leading to the back gate of the temple, Xi'er carried water and followed her girl, but she was diligent but still full of sincerity: "...all the merits that the servant girl saved from fetching water will be given to the girl! "

Hearing the innocent words, Chang Suining couldn't help laughing, and nodded: "Okay."

She will probably do a lot of evil things in the future, and it will be safe to have more meritorious deeds.

Ah Zhi also said: "Give the maidservant's money to the girl too!"

Xi'er gritted her teeth secretly when she heard this - this is a blatant plagiarism of ideas!
"Hey...why is there a lady carrying water and firewood?"

Not far ahead, Yuan Xiang looked at the several figures approaching, took a closer look, and was even more surprised: "The governor, it's actually the lady of the Chang family!"

Cui Jing, who led people to inspect the back mountain, stopped in his tracks.

"Girl, Cui Dadu is in charge of them." Xi'er saw the person in front of her and whispered.

Chang Suining walked over, temporarily put down the barrel, and raised his hand to Cui Jing to salute: "Governor Cui."

The girl is wearing an apricot-colored skirt, with loops tied in front of her body, revealing her slender white wrists, and her figure is upright.

The wound on her face was covered with light brown ointment. At this moment, there was a layer of crystal clear sweat on the tip of her forehead and nose. The morning light sprinkled from the gaps between the lush branches and leaves on both sides of the road, and reflected on her face, it looked like a mottled face. Flashing butterflies.

Cui Jing looked down and landed on the bucket at her feet: "Is Mrs. Chang's injury healed?"

Apart from those on her face, she was also injured on her shoulder——

Chang Suining knew that what he was asking about should be an injury on his shoulder, so he said, "It's all a minor injury, it's inconvenient to carry water, but it doesn't affect it."

"Chang Niangzi is really amazing..." Yuan Xiang praised sincerely, but he was still puzzled: "It's just why Chang Niangzi came to fetch water herself?"

And the envoy is still carrying firewood——

"This trip is here to pray for blessings, so I should do what I can." Chang Suining said frankly: "Picking water can not only improve endurance, but also accumulate merit, and kill two birds with one stone."

Cui Jing: "..."

Time management is very reasonable.

He looked at the other person's body and complexion, and said, "Ms. Chang has made great progress."

Compared with that time when I drew my sword in the posthouse——

"Of course." Chang Suining nodded without humility: "Because I'm very hardworking."

Strength is a very disciplined thing, as long as you are willing to practice, you will definitely see rewards.

Cui Jing was silent for a moment, then nodded: "...Indeed."

Chang Suining had no intention of procrastinating, and when he was about to pick up the water and leave, he suddenly heard a chaotic noise not far away.

Cui Jing confessed to Yuan Xiang: "Go and see what happened."

"Yes."

Yuan Xiang turned back halfway, and there was an acquaintance beside him.

"Little Ah Li!" The mountain-like middle-aged man was overwhelmed with surprise, and walked quickly towards Chang Suining.

"Ah Dian, why are you here?" Chang Suining looked at him unexpectedly: "Didn't you tell me to wait for me at home?"

Yuan Xiang and Cui Jing said: "The brothers on patrol saw that it was a general, so they brought him here."

"But I haven't been able to wait for you to come back after waiting for a long time." Ah Dian said aggrievedly: "I had no choice but to come here secretly to find you."

Chang Suining looked at him helplessly: "I said I would come out for seven days, didn't I give you colored ink to draw a line on paper every day?"

"I like green, so I couldn't resist drawing a few more green ones. I counted them, and I have already drawn seven!"

Chang Suining could only express his admiration in silence.

Cui Jing said in a timely manner: "It's okay, I will make people settle down senior."

"Xiao Jing, you're here too, that's great!" Ah Dian turned to Cui Jing, took off the burden on his shoulders, took out a greased paper bag, and opened it to find a few sesame seed cakes——

"Eat sesame seed cakes, I brought them specially for you and Xiao Ali!"

Facing those clear and kind eyes, Cui Jing had no choice but to pick up one.

"What happened that day... I was wrong, I shouldn't have fought." Ah Dian said sincerely, "I know I was wrong, and when I return to Xuan Ce Mansion, I will go and receive the punishment myself!"

"But I won't go back yet." He said, pointing to Chang Suining: "I still want to play with little Ah Li!"

Cui Jing nodded: "Don't worry, I will go back when Senior wants to go back."

It's just that the general's mind is unstable, he left Xuance Mansion for so long and didn't think about going back, this has never happened before——

Cui Jing looked at Chang Suining subconsciously.

Ah Dian has already walked towards Chang Suining: "Little Ah Li, here it is!"

Chang Suining hadn't had time to eat breakfast, but he was really hungry at this time, took the biscuits, sat down on a smooth stone beside him, and ate like that.

Ah Dian squatted beside her and ate sesame seed cakes.

He is particularly burly, squatting beside the girl like this, like a well-behaved big lion.

It's just that he just took two bites, when he stopped chewing suddenly, and his eyes widened suddenly: "Little Ah Li, why are you injured!"

Chang Suining: "I thought you'd have to wait until next year to find out."

"I'm not blind!" Ah Dian stood up abruptly, lost all the biscuits in his hand, and immediately began to roll up his sleeves: "Who bullied you! Tell me, I'll fight back!"

As he said that, he looked at Cui Jing again: "Xiao Jing, aren't you in charge now? Little Ah Li was bullied by bad guys, so you don't care about it!"

In his eyes, everyone related to Xuan Ce Army is a family, and now it is Cui Jing who replaces His Highness as the head of the family.

All matters big and small should be taken care of by him.

Cui Jing, who was suddenly dereliction of duty, fell silent for a moment.

Chang Suining justified his name: "He took care of it."

Cui Jing nodded in agreement.

He did—and meddling in his own business was fine.

"We have worked together to beat the bad guys away." Chang Suining said solemnly while eating the cake.

"It's more or less the same." Ah Dian squatted down in front of Chang Suining again, earnestly said: "You must not be bullied anymore, or His Highness will be unhappy if he finds out."

Seeing Chang Suining looking at him, he said seriously: "Your Highness doesn't like to see us being bullied."

Chang Suining swallowed the cake, lowered his eyes and nodded: "Got it."

"Shall I test you?" Ah Dian suddenly slapped Chang Suining while speaking.

"Don't hit the general!" Yuan Xiang was startled, and subconsciously wanted to step forward to stop it—the sudden slap of the general, I'm afraid it might kill Chang Niangzi!

However, he had just taken two steps forward when he saw the girl sitting on the stone dodge to one side, her figure was like flowing water and her movements were like lightning, she not only avoided the palm, but even her movement of chewing bread was not disturbed.

Yuan Xiang was dumbfounded.

"Not bad!" Ah Dian nodded in satisfaction, "I can reward you with a bunch of candied haws!"

Cui Jing's eyes moved slightly.

This is not what the word hard work can explain.

He could not help but hear the unconvincing words "My sister is a martial arts genius"——

Chang Suining quickly finished eating the biscuits in his hands, took the handkerchief handed over by Xi'er, wiped his hands, and got up.

"Captain Cui, let's go first."

Cui Jing nodded.

"What are you playing with? I want to play too!" Seeing Chang Suining lift the bucket, Ah Dian was itching unbearably. Seeing a monk carrying water passing by, he directly snatched the work and lifted the pole lightly. Carry it loosely on your shoulders.

The monks who were also robbed of their jobs after several brothers and sisters could only chant the Buddha: "Amitabha, there is a kindness for the Lord..."

Just as Chang Suining and his party took two steps, a moon-blue figure walked towards them slowly.

When he saw Chang Suining, there was no surprise in his eyes, but when he saw the bucket in her hand, he couldn't help laughing: "Ms. Chang, this is...?"

"There's nothing to do in the morning, just go for a walk." Chang Suining had had enough rest, and didn't intend to stay longer to greet people, left a sentence "Wei Shilang is free", and left with water.

Wei Shuyi looked at the leaving back, laughed again, and sighed: "Ms. Chang is always so unexpected."

He only inquired that the person was at the back mountain, but he never imagined that it was such a person "at the back mountain".

The person had already left, so he could only look away and look at Cui Jing with a smile: "I didn't expect Cui Dadu to be here."

"Is Wei Shilang here to enjoy the scenery?"

"Yes." Wei Shuyi smiled and put his hands behind his back.

He came to watch Jing, but Jing didn't seem to want to see him.

Seeing Cui Jing walking forward with Yuan Xiang, Wei Shuyi stopped by to walk with him for a while, and asked casually, "I don't know what Governor Cui thinks about what happened yesterday?"

Cui Jing walked forward, ignoring it.

Wei Shuyi thought about it and asked again: "Seeing that Mrs. Chang has a thorough plan, does Governor Cui feel that it is almost a disservice?"

This statement is obviously suspected of being a joke.

After all, it is true that there are very few opportunities to watch Cui Lingan's jokes.

"Life is at stake, I'd rather believe it than nothing." Cui Jing didn't look sideways, and didn't feel conscious of being laughed at by others: "It's the responsibility, and there is no reason to watch."

Wei Shuyi: "..."

He looked at the green mountains and springs in front of him, and heaved a long sigh.

"I said Cui Ling'an..." Wei Shuyi said helplessly, "People like you are born to compare others, right?"

It seems that all the clever minds in this world have become useless in the face of the other party's unwavering righteousness——

He sighed again: "It really makes people have nowhere to reason."

Wei Shuyi's sigh filled the entire back mountain: "With you as a foil, no wonder Mrs. Chang just looked at me, and she seemed a little displeased with me."

……

Chang Suining had no way of knowing about this lament, she was carrying the water out of the back mountain, when passing by a clump of dense vegetation, she slowed down.

Following a burst of low-key laughter from men and women, someone came out from behind the bushes.

"After returning to the mansion...the rewards are indispensable to you!"

"Thank you, sir, for your pity..."

"You little hoof is the most obedient..."

The person who spoke was a man in brocade clothes who looked about 20 years old. He walked out with two young female envoys on his left and right sides, and one of the female envoys was still lowering her head to adjust her skirt.

When the other female envoy raised her eyes and saw someone passing by, she was caught off guard and showed a look of shock. She turned her flushed face away and hurriedly hid behind the man.

Seeing this, the man looked over, frowned slightly, but his eyes fell on Ah Dian, narrowing his narrow eyes: "Who am I, isn't this the fool in Xuan Ce's mansion?"
