Chapter 617: Chapter 617-Utterly Sincere

Translator: 549690339

The problem was that the Imperial Palace was not safe to begin with. Otherwise, could Empress Xiao’s fetus be aborted without anyone knowing? However, at least Madam Xie still knew how to read people’s expressions.

Sikong Xiao looked like he was on the verge of breaking down. It was better for him to shut his mouth and not make things difficult for her.

Second Brother Xiao had a stroke a while ago and almost lost his official career. With the Xiao family’s background, it was better for her not to challenge Eldest Brother Xiao’s bottom line and crazily probe at the edge.

Madam Xie walked away.

Sikong Xiao’s anger had yet to be suppressed. He had really done something wrong. He thought that he had learned from his mistakes and Xiao Baoshu had made many contributions on the battlefield. He was quite a hero.

He thought that Xiao Baoshu had grown up overnight and did not have to worry about him anymore.

In the end, the other party was so arrogant that he directly made a fuss in front of the emperor.

Sikong Xiao thought that he was rough enough and was extremely straightforward. Because of his personality, he had offended many people. He knew his limits.

However, his son was not straight. He was already stunned. He was so stunned that there was no end to it. Moreover, he did not know when and where to flare up. He was the same as everyone else. He was sincere.

His sincerity was a mess.

Oh my god, what a headache.

###

The next morning, Xiao Baoshu was woken up by Mrs. Xie through the window. Her daughter had returned to her parents ‘home for a day, so she could not wait for nothing. How could she keep her biological sister waiting?

Only then did Xiao Baoshu get up and wash up. He searched the room once, and finally, he took the dagger that he had brought back from afar and ran away like a gust of wind.

Madam Xie,”I’m afraid you’ll stab yourself to death before your sister kicks you out of the Xie residence.”

“Men, quickly follow Little Lang! Hurry up!”

Xiao Baoshu hurried over. When he arrived at the Xie residence, he found out that all the females of the Xie family had gone out to the nunnery to listen to the chanting of scriptures and Buddha. Fortunately, Xiao Baoxin had already left a message. According to the usual practice, he would basically throw out some money and eat vegetarian food. He would definitely return before dark. He definitely wouldn’t be able to meet them today. He could only wait for Xiao Baoxin and Xie Xian to return to the Xiao Manor together tomorrow.

Xiao Baoshu touched the dagger on his waist. It was better to give the gift to his sister after meeting her. He didn’t want to let those who didn’t know the value of the gift not take it.

This dagger was personally forged by his master, No. 76. From the time his master went to the battlefield to him, he had used it to kill countless people. Seeing the pained expression on the master’s face, he knew that this was a good item.

Not to mention that he turned around and returned to the Xiao Manor, Xiao Baoxin followed the entire Xie family to Guangde Nunnery in the west of the city.

It was in a side alley. It was not bustling, and the nunnery was not big. Temples like Guangde Nunnery were everywhere in Jiankang City.

It was because the previous nunnery master had a close relationship with Mother Xie. When they were young, they were close friends. They were from the Yang family of Mount Tai. After they got married for less than two years, there was a war. Her husband died tragically, and her children died of diarrhea. Yang was disheartened. Her family could not continue, so she simply shaved her head and found a nunnery near her home to become a nun. Later on, the old nunnery master died of exhaustion, and Madam Yang became the nunnery master.

He had been doing it for twenty years.

Mother Xie and Mother Xie met again by accident. At that time, the head of the Xie family had died. Mother Xie took care of her children on one hand, but on the other hand, she could not hide her sadness and was mentally and physically exhausted.

The two ill-fated close friends reunited and comforted each other.

Although the Xie family was also in trouble, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse, so it was more than enough to help the Yang family.

After all these years, even though Madam Yang had died and the nunnery master had changed, the fate between them and Guangde Nunnery had been forged. Every year, half a month before his birthday, he would come to Guangde Nunnery to give incense money and listen to the scriptures and recite Buddha. It had become a tradition of the Xie family.

Although Xiao Baoshu’s return was a joyous occasion, it was only for the Xiao family. Xiao Baoxin naturally could not let the Xie family change their many years of tradition. Xiao Baoshu was a big-hearted person. It did not matter if they met a day earlier or later.

Early in the morning, the Xie family went to Guangde Nunnery.

The current nunnery’s dharma name was Huijing. She was a middle-aged woman in her forties with a broad face and a big mouth. She was the disciple of Mother Xie’s close friend.

She had been in Guangde Nunnery for fifteen or sixteen years, and she had no other shortcomings except for her appearance.

He had sparse eyebrows, eyes the size of green beans, and a wide, square face. It was unforgettable at first sight and unforgettable at the next. Mother Xie had once secretly wondered if Guangde Nunnery was also partly to blame for Huijing’s failure to bring glory to Guangde Nunnery. After all, when his best friend was the head of the nunnery, she was quite famous among the women in Jiankang City. Mother Xie had come over because of word of mouth, and that was why they had a reunion.

However, ever since Hui Jing took over as the nunnery master, it was really getting worse year by year, and worse by the day.

In Jingyan’s words, a year’s worth of incense money could not even compare to a month’s worth of money when her master was still alive.

However, this Hui Jing was clearly an expert in Buddhism. She was not inferior to Mother Xie’s close friend. Mother Xie had been obsessed with Buddhism for a while. Especially when her husband died and she supported the entire family alone, she could find comfort in Buddhism.

Mother Xie didn’t dare to say that she was proficient, but she was also knowledgeable.

At least when he talked about Buddhism with Hui Jing, in Mother Xie’s eyes, he was indeed the disciple of a close friend and was very knowledgeable.

It was just that with Hui Jing’s personality, other than talking about scriptures and Buddhism, she really didn’t know how to say anything else. It was even harder for her to flatter him than it was for red rain to fall from the sky.

It wasn’t that Mother Xie didn’t want to help her best friend’s disciple, but the noblewomen of Jiankang City lacked everything except silver.

There were only three to four hundred Buddhist temples and nunnery in and out of Jiankang City.

Who should I use to enlighten him?

No matter where he went, he would be sought after by others. The one who scattered silver was the lord. If he didn’t say a few nice words, why would he give it to him?

If she was at a disadvantage in terms of looks, she could at least make up for it with her mouth.

It wasn’t that Mother Xie hadn’t mentioned Huijing before, but in the end, she might as well not have mentioned it. Huijing’s skill in praising people was really not as good as not praising them at all. She had actually praised one of the only three big families away.

The remaining large family was the Xie family.

The other one was not praised by Hui Jing. It was introduced by Madam Wang to her sister-in-law. Later on, the Wang family of Langya fell, and some died. Her sister-in-law was sent out of Jiankang.

It could be said that only the Xie family would occasionally add some incense money and do all kinds of rituals here.

If it weren’t for the idle commoners in the surrounding area, Guangde Nunnery would have developed into the Xie Clan’s ancestral temple.

Before the Xie family came, they had already sent an old woman to greet them. Actually, there was no need to do so. Guangde Nunnery only had one big family to feed. From the head of the nunnery to seven or eight nuns, they could remember each of them very well. It was fixed at this time half a month before Mother Xie’s birthday every year. The vegetables planted in the vegetarian nunnery were not enough. They went out to buy half a cart of vegetables and changed the utensils. The whole Guangde Nunnery was cleaned up so that Mother Xie could feel the purity of Buddhism from inside out..
