www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!
Looking at Nangong Lin kneeling in front of her, Su's face was as dark as water, and she thought to herself: Huang was so bold that he secretly sold off the collection in the house and wanted to put the blame on Lin! Now that the Dongchuang Incident happened, he only grounded Huang, but did not divorce her and return to her parents' home. This was already the end of his benevolence. Now she actually wants to go to Bailong Temple to offer incense and worship Buddha together?
In the blink of an eye, she saw Nangong Lin's bruised forehead again, and Su became increasingly unhappy. If others saw this, they would think that they were harsh on their concubine’s granddaughter!
"Sister Lin," Mrs. Su looked at Nangong Lin with disgust, "Since you are so filial to your mother, then stay in the house and be filial to your mother today."
Nangong Lin was stunned, then looked horrified and shook her head desperately. "No, no, grandma..."
But Su didn’t want to hear any more and waved her hand, “Take her down.”
As soon as he finished speaking, two broad-shouldered ladies took Nangong Lin's arms and dragged her down. Nangong Lin still wanted to speak, but she heard a woman whisper in her ear: "Fourth girl, don't make things difficult for me."
When Nangong Yue and Lin came back after sneaking around, they found that everyone else had arrived, but Nangong Yan and Nangong Lin were missing.
Ms. Su glanced around the crowd indifferently, and suddenly asked, "Why don't you see Sister Yan?"
Ms. Zhao stepped forward respectfully: "I was about to report to my mother that Sister Yan is unwell and can't go."
Su didn't ask any more questions and said, "Since everyone is here, let's set off."
The carriages and personnel needed for this trip were already waiting in the outer courtyard, but there was an addition that surprised everyone.
"Fourth uncle!" Nangong Cheng was the first to blurt out. Unexpectedly, Nangong Cheng would be waiting for them next to the carriage.
Nangong Cheng was wearing a dark blue riding uniform with narrow sleeves, with bright yellow forged edges on the cuffs and neckline, making him look a little more handsome and chic than usual. He quickly glanced at the haggard-looking Su Qingping behind Mr. Su. He heard that his Qingqing was unwell these days, which made him very worried. However, as a man, it was inconvenient for him to enter the inner house, so he had no chance until today.
Nangong Cheng swung his horsewhip and stepped forward to salute Su, "Mother, my son heard that his mother was going to take his sister-in-law and nieces to Bailong Temple to worship Buddha today. He thought he was free today, so why not let his son **** him? You go over there."
Although Nangong Cheng was asking, he was already here, so how could he drive him away again.
Su raised her eyes and glanced at him, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Ping Ping is a concubine, but this fourth child is far behind compared to the third child. The third child was in charge of the general affairs of the house. Although he did not have any great achievements, he was still in compliance with the rules and made no mistakes. And this fourth old man is neither good at writing nor martial arts. He spends his days doing nothing but poking fun at the girls in the house... If his Aunt Liu sees her precious son turning into this, I wonder if she will be so angry that she will burst out of her coffin. Jump out.
A flash of ridicule flashed in her eyes, and she said: "Since we are here, let's go together." After that, Su Qingping helped her get into the first carriage.
Nangong Yue has been observing Su Qingping carefully from the moment the fourth uncle appeared, but she did not expect that Su Qingping was really calm. She obviously did not expect that the fourth uncle would appear, but after After a brief surprise, he quickly calmed down and did not even look at his fourth uncle. He always looked at her with a straight face and lowered her eyebrows, looking like a lady.
There are four carriages in the house. They look plain and simple on the outside, but the interiors are fully furnished and covered with extremely soft cushions to minimize bumps.
There were four carriages, one for Su and Su Qingping, one for Zhao and Nangong Cheng, and another for Lin and Nangong Yue. All the maids who served personally got on the master's carriage, and the last one was left. It was arranged for other accompanying maids and mothers-in-law.
At the beginning of May, it is the end of spring and the beginning of summer. The temperature is the most suitable, mild but not cold, warm but not restrained. There is always light rain in the south of the Yangtze River in May, and this May in the royal capital is the right time to go out.
White Dragon Temple is located in the eastern suburbs of the royal capital, about an hour's drive from Nangong Mansion. For the sake of travel safety, Zhao sent more than a dozen nurses to go with him, but there were no accidents along the way.
It is said that the incense of Bailong Temple is very effective, so there is an endless stream of pilgrims who come here to offer incense every day.
The carriage stopped in front of Bailong Temple, and everyone got off the carriage one by one. The sweeping monk outside the temple only glanced at Su's group casually.
Ms. Su remained calm on the surface, but there was a feeling of emotion in her heart. She recalled that more than ten years ago, she came to Bailong Temple to offer incense and worship the Buddha. The abbot of the temple would go out to greet him in person every time. How could a sweeping monk be like this now? Make light of yourself.
While the nursing staff stayed outside to guard the carriage, Mrs. Su led a group of female relatives, as well as maids and mothers-in-law into the White Dragon Temple.
The Nangong family had sent the stewardess to Bailong Temple a few days ago to arrange matters for worshiping the Buddha. A five or six-year-old novice monk was waiting at the door and led them to the main hall.
As expected, Bailong Temple is very prosperous and has many pilgrims. As soon as Su and his party entered the main hall, it seemed extremely crowded.
Su Shi felt unhappy and remembered that every time she went to Bailong Temple to offer incense and worship the Buddha, the temple would be temporarily closed and no other people were allowed to enter. However, now she was left out and had to squeeze in with a group of people to offer incense. , the treatment is really different!
Su Shi suddenly remembered the birthday banquet a few days ago. She had sent invitations to most of the dignitaries in the royal capital early. However, on the day of the birthday banquet, some people deliberately arrived late, and several of them even showed up. But no one arrived. ...The reason why I was treated with such neglect and humiliation was because the Nangong family had been living in seclusion for many years.
She is not willing to give in, really not willing to give in!
The Su family secretly gritted her teeth and decided in her heart that she must make the Nangong family strong again and regain its honor in her own hands!
"Grandma," at this moment, a soft voice rang in Su's ears, "your face doesn't look good. Did you just get bumped in the carriage? Do you want to go to the side hall?" Sit down and take a rest?"
The speaker was Nangong Cheng. She was looking at Su with concern. On her beautiful face, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, looking worried.
Ms. Su looked at her eldest granddaughter, whom she had always had high hopes for, with warm eyes. She patted Nangong Cheng's hand and smiled gently: "Grandma is fine. Sister Cheng, don't worry."
Nangong Yue sneered in her heart, and she naturally noticed Su's strange behavior. The reason is simply that Su is unwilling and dissatisfied. In the previous life, it was because of her dissatisfaction as a grandmother that the Nangong family caused great disaster!
"Mother," Mrs. Zhao walked up to Ms. Su and said softly, "my daughter-in-law has sent someone to donate five hundred taels of fragrant oil to the temple and asked them to arrange a wing for us to rest."
Su nodded and agreed. Nangong Cheng resigned wisely and was led by a Zhike monk to wander around.
Leading the way, the young novice monk led the group of women to the wing at the back of the west side hall.
Two young novices served them hot tea. Just as Su took a sip, she heard a woman outside the door reporting that the wife of Chen Lin, the cabinet scholar, had come to pay homage to Su.
Su's eyebrows moved and she hurriedly said "please".
