princess is fine

Early the next morning, Mrs. Xi asked her servants to prepare the carriage, and called her two daughters to go out.

Xi Chao's attire is still capable. Although she is still a woman's attire, she looks like a chivalrous heroine in the storyteller's mouth, and has nothing to do with the word "Miss Guanjia".

Madam Xi couldn't help shaking her head when she saw her attire, and sighed: "When you enter the Yuelao Temple today, you must pray sincerely, otherwise you will not be able to get married if you look like this."

As soon as these words came out, Xi Chao, who had just gotten into the carriage, almost staggered and jumped down again in fright. She widened her black and white eyes and looked at her mother who was sitting steadily: "Mother, what do you mean by that? Aren't you going out to play?"

Xi Ye hurriedly took her hand, told her to sit down peacefully, and then explained: "Yuelao Temple is located on Yunxiu Mountain in the south of the city. It is now August, and the golden osmanthus is fragrant. Compared with other places in the wilderness , isn’t it a good place to play.”

Xi Chao rolled his eyes and thought of something: "Could it be that my sister met a good marriage? That's why I and my mother have this plan to go to the Yuelao Temple?"

"You girl, you actually teased your sister, mother, you don't care!" Hearing this joke, Xi Ye smiled wryly and hurriedly asked for help like his own mother, otherwise Chao'er was so eloquent that he might have to say it in a while Went to heaven.

Mrs. Xi was excited to see her sisters joking, and stopped Xi Chao when she heard Xi Ye's words, "Chao'er, stop teasing your sister. I went to Yuelao Temple today because of your eldest brother."

As the saying goes, to start a family and start a career, now Xi Mu is considered to have a small success, but he has never heard of which girl he likes. The mother is inevitably impatient, so she wants to go to the Yuelao Temple to make a wish for the eldest son to get a marriage.The schedule had been set long ago, and when Xi Dynasty returned home, Mrs. Xi decided to call her two daughters away, after all, there was no certainty about fate.

Just thinking of the eldest son's ignorant appearance, Mrs. Xi felt a little lost again, and she couldn't help shaking her head. Who would have thought that the older the child, the more worrying it would be.

Seeing his mother's expression, Xi Ye and Xi Chao glanced at each other, and they sat a little closer. They both held Mrs. Xi's hand and comforted them: "Mother, brother, he just hasn't met anyone he likes yet." "Yes." Ah, mother, don't worry too much, maybe if you beg Yuelao today, he will give you a daughter-in-law tomorrow."

When Mrs. Xi heard the two little girls' jokes, the disappointment in her heart was swept away, so she put the words aside, and talked about some interesting places on Yunxiu Mountain without mentioning them.

There used to be a Taoist temple on Yunxiu Mountain, called Miaoyun Temple, but unfortunately the incense was scarce, and there were fewer and fewer Taoists in the temple. Later, I don’t know which year the story happened. It is said that a young lady came here to ask for incense. Scholars who came to Beijing to take the exam stayed in this Taoist temple. The two fell in love at first sight and left a token.Later, the scholar won the first place in one fell swoop, was named on the gold list, proud of the spring breeze, and married the young lady into the house.Since then, the two □□Rong Fugui have made a good story in Jian'an City.

Because of this beautiful talk, there are far more human beings who come to Miaoyun Temple to seek marriage than those who worship incense and make wishes. Miaoyun Temple simply changed its name and rebuilt the ancestral hall, called Yue Lao Temple. Most of them come for the sake of marriage.

Xi Chao followed his mother and sister into the Yuelao Temple, and when he looked up, he saw a statue of Yuelao in the middle of the temple, holding a marriage certificate in his hand, with a kind expression on his face, as if he was praying for lovers in the world to get married.

She didn't believe this at first, but looking at the red thread wrapped around the statue, she couldn't help but feel a little touched.

Mrs. Xi pulled her to kneel down, and Xi Chao finally realized it, and knelt on the right side of her mother. Hearing her chanting, he folded his hands together and closed his eyes, meditating silently in his heart.

Yuelao, Yuelao, since you care about the marriages of people in this world, you should accept it regardless of the love between men and women, as long as there is true affection.If you have a spirit in heaven, hope...

Xi Zhao paused in her heart, she didn't know what to ask for, if she said it shallowly, she was afraid that she would be unwilling, and if she said it deeply, she was afraid that she would not be able to fulfill her long-cherished wish, she opened her eyes and looked at Yuelao's kind face again, Feng'er Blowing the red silk threads around to wind them together, Xi Chao was stunned, and already bent down, thinking silently: If only she has me in her heart, this life is enough.

Mrs. Xi had already stood up, seeing Xi Chao's pious appearance, her heart moved, and she already had some guesses.As soon as she stood up, she told the two children to go out for a stroll, and then she went to the temple to add some incense.

When Xi Chao and his sister came out of the ancestral hall, they saw a big tree covered with red marriage belts.While walking, Xi Ye was talking to his sister about the scenery around the Yuelao Temple, but seeing that Xi Chao was still lacking in interest, he smiled and said, "You don't dare to be interested when I say these things? Well, there is a place , sister bet you will like it."

When Xi Chao heard this, his eyes lit up instantly: "Quickly tell me where it is?"

"I know you like these desserts." Xi Ye took Xi Chao's hand and passed through the lively crowd: "There is a stall in front of it, and the owner of the stall is Granny Zhang, and she makes really good cakes."

"Sincere Cake?" Hearing what his sister said, Xi Chao asked doubtfully, "The name is really strange, but is it steamed Cake?"

Xi Ye laughed out loud when he heard this: "Sure enough, I ate too much. You can tell what it is just by hearing the name. But this steamed rice cake from my mother-in-law's family is different from other steamed rice cakes."

"What's the difference? Let's talk about it!" Xi Chao quickened his pace and urged his sister to talk about the pastry.

"This Granny Zhang has been making steamed cakes for half her life. Leaving aside the skills in her hands, the ingredients of this steamed cake are amazing. This real cake is soft, glutinous, white and tender rice cake with Made by mother-in-law’s special Albizia juliensis petals, the pink and tender color makes people happy, and the sweetness of the petals is mixed with the fragrance of glutinous rice. .”

"Acacia flower?" Xi Chao's eyes lit up.

"Well, because of the Albizia julibrissin flower, the real name of this sincere cake is called Hehuan cake, but later a teacher said that this name is a bit frivolous, that is, in front of the Yuelao Temple, everyone has a sincere heart. I came here to seek a sincere heart, so it is better to call it Zhenxin Cake, and this name is settled."

Saying this, the two of them had already walked to the stall, and there were a few diners standing beside them. Xi Ye went up to buy a few yuan, and the mother-in-law neatly wrapped up the pastry and handed it to Xi Ye.

Xi Chao watched from the side, and the Zhenxin Cake was indeed different from ordinary steamed rice cakes, the soft white cakes had some pinkness on them, making people greedy just looking at them.The cakes wrapped in Xi Ye's hand were just a little more pink and tender, but there was another cake next to the mother-in-law's stall, with a bright red mark in the middle, which looked a little more festive.

"Are these pastries different?" Xi Chao asked.

Seeing Xi Chao looking at the pastry, Granny Zhang smiled and said, "Young lady, don't you know? Come to let me know, the old man prepared this wedding cake for the newcomer, which is considered a congratulation."

"Wedding cake?" Xi Chao looked at the dessert, and couldn't help but smile a little: "I'm afraid it's made of lily flowers. Although it's not as beautiful as this Albizia julibrissin flower, the meaning is very good. The red dot in the middle is really beautiful."

This is extremely beautiful, and naturally there is such a heart.

When Granny Zhang heard this, she said cheerfully: "Young lady is very right. By the way, I packed this box and still have some left over. Do you want to try it?"

Xi Chao smiled and said: "This is a wedding cake, but I can't help but eat it recklessly. Let's try this sincere cake first, let's see if I can meet a sincere person."

When Granny Zhang heard this, she said with a smile: "The little girl will find her sweetheart one day, and I will treat you to this lily cake when I come here."

"Okay." Xi Chao responded with a smile.Only then did Xi Ye and Xi Ye leave the stall and walked a little farther into the mountains and forests, only to find a clean place to savor the sincere cake.

Coincidentally, there are probably pilgrims who often come to sit here in the mountain forest, but there are also stone tables and benches for people to rest.Xi Chao and Xi Ye sat down and chatted with each other over snacks, feeling uncomfortable.

"Did sister ever meet someone who is sincere?" Xi Chao looked at the dim sum in his hand, and looked at Xi Ye with some curiosity. It's not too early for the Xi family to get married, and the few official ladies who are the same age as her sister are probably already married. She's very attractive, but she hasn't heard her sister say this yet.

The dim sum in Xi Ye's hand stopped in mid-air, she glanced at Xi Chao, shook her head and said, "It's so easy to meet a sincere person. Besides, even if we meet, how can we know whether it's true or false..." After all, He sighed again.

Xi Chao glanced at his sister in surprise, what she meant by...

Before she could figure it out, a slightly surprised voice came from behind: "Ye'er?"

Night?Is this calling sister?Xi Chao turned her head, but saw a person who surprised her even more.

Xue Ling?How could he?Before Xi Chao could figure it out, Xue Ling had already stepped forward, and when he saw another person beside Xi Ye, he was taken aback for a moment, and said to Xi Ye, "Why is Miss Xi here?" Then he looked up again. He glanced at Xi Chao: "Who is this?"

Although he had met Xi Chao a few times, but Xi Chao was still young at that time, so he couldn't recognize him after all these years.

Xi Ye got up to return the salute, took another step back and said to Xue Ling, "Today I accompanied my mother here to offer incense. I didn't expect to meet you here by chance."

Seeing her stepping back, Xue Ling frowned slightly and said, "I'm afraid I came here to offer incense to seek a good marriage..."

Xi Ye looked up at him: "Then Mr. Xue is here, isn't it the same?"

Hearing this, Xue Ling was silent for a while, then looked at Xi Chao who was at the side, and it took a while to realize: "This is, Xi Chao?"

Xi Chao didn't like him at all, so he just nodded and didn't speak.

"It's my sister." Xi Ye responded, and then said back: "Young master, please go ahead, my mother is still waiting in the ancestral hall, and my sister and I are going back."

Seeing the stubborn expression on her face, Xue Ling shook his head, made way for the two of them to walk.

It wasn't until the backs of the two disappeared that Xue Ling sighed softly and walked towards the old courtyard of Miaoyun Temple.

The author has something to say:

Guess why Xue Ling is here... Maybe we will meet in the next chapter, ahem, maybe.

Thank you for the quiet and embarrassing mine, okay~
