Chapter 298: Prayers, The Truth

Liu Piaopiao did not understand why it had suddenly become like this.
She did not even have the courage to ask. If it was really as she thought, what could she do?
On one side was her family, and on the other was justice. How would she choose then?
She knelt in front of the Buddha for a long time, but she could not find an answer.
In the front hall, Shen Yijia learned from the book. She knelt on the futon and clasped her hands together. “Bodhisattva…”!!
“This is a Buddha statue,” Song Jingchen reminded her.
Shen Yijia was speechless.
She coughed dryly and cleared her throat. She closed her eyes and started over. “Buddha, my name is Shen Yijia. I’m fated to come to your temple with my husband today to pray for something.”
“Oh, right. The person standing beside me is the husband of the believer.” she thought.
The believer did not ask for much. Her husband had been harmed by a traitor and had lost his family.
She only hoped that Buddha would bless her husband to kill his enemies as soon as possible and take revenge for his loved ones. If she could let her husband get what he wanted, she was willing to not eat meat for a month.
She still had her mother, four siblings, and a younger brother at home. She begged Buddha to bless her mother with good health and a long life.
Brother Hao is a little silly. Let him be smarter in the future. Otherwise, it would be worrying. Sister Huan likes to practice martial arts, so let her practice her skills. Then, let Lin Shao spread the spices passed down from his ancestors. Miaomiao’s health is too poor…”
After saying a lot, Shen Yijia rested for a while and continued.
“Finally, after I take revenge, it would be even better if I can have a few beautiful children. They can be like me or my husband. Anyway, we’re both good-looking. If you really don’t know how to arrange it, then let the girls take after me and the boys take after my husband.”
Although it was a little inappropriate to ask Buddha to kill his enemy with his own hands, Song Jingchen was still very touched when he heard this. However, the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.
However, a certain someone did not know it.
“It’s best to have four, two each. Of course, Buddha, if you want to give more…”
Shen Yijia was talking enthusiastically when Song Jingchen covered her mouth. She blinked her big eyes and looked at Song Jingchen inexplicably.
Song Jingchen tried his best to ignore the monks who had already gathered at the door. The corners of his mouth twitched as he said, “Buddha will forget if you say too much. This will do.”
Shen Yijia blinked to show that she understood before Song Jingchen let go of her.
“Buddha, you have to remember me. My name is Shen Yijia.”
Song Jingchen was speechless.
After an hour of praying, Song Jingchen finally pulled Shen Yijia away.
The monks at the door looked at each other and heaved a sigh of relief.
This nagging was even more intense than listening to the head monk recite scriptures.
Apart from the main hall, there were also Buddha statues in a few side halls.
Song Jingchen sensed that Shen Yijia wanted to go in again. His eyelids twitched as he pulled her out. “You’ve already worshiped Buddha. Let’s walk around again. Otherwise, it’ll be dark soon.”
Shen Yijia felt that it made sense and let him hold her hand. Unfortunately, she turned around and glanced at the Buddha statue in the side hall.
It seemed to look different from the previous one. If a Buddha couldn’t remember it, one of them would at least remember it, right?
The sky darkened especially early in winter, and it was too cold on the mountain. Song Jingchen brought Shen Yijia around and sent her back to the courtyard door.
“Hurry up and go in. I’ll get the novice monk to send the food to your room later,” Song Jingchen urged.
“Alright.” Shen Yijia turned around and entered the courtyard.
Seeing her disappear, Song Jingchen chuckled helplessly. If she wanted children, she shouldn’t be asking the Buddha for one.
Four didn’t seem like a lot. He would try his best.
Song Jingchen held his forehead. What was he thinking?
Not long after, a novice monk brought some vegetarian food over. The main course was potatoes and a plate of wild vegetables.
Perhaps because she had talked too much, Shen Yijia also felt extremely hungry. She wolfed down the food.
After eating, she went straight to the front hall with Mo Yuan. Therefore, the nagging voice in the afternoon sounded in the side hall again.
“Buddha, you have to remember the name of the believer. My name is Shen Yijia.”
Liu Piaopiao was woken up by a knock on the door. When she opened her eyes, she realized that she had fallen asleep on the ground.
“Baby, are you in there?”
Madam Zeng’s gentle voice sounded from outside the door.
Liu Piaopiao quickly got up and tidied her clothes and hair before opening the door. “Mother, why are you here?”
“I heard from Nanny Liu that you’ve been kneeling all afternoon. How can a silly child like you ruin your body like this?” Madam Zeng reprimanded, but her voice was filled with concern.
Nanny Liu walked in and lit the oil lamp. Only then did Madam Zeng see that Liu Piaopiao’s expression was extremely bad.
Actually, Madam Zeng also knew that this had been happening ever since Cai Yun passed away.
Seeing that her precious daughter was getting thinner and thinner, other than feeling sorry for her, she couldn’t do anything else.
She thought that she would recover after a while, but she did not expect her daughter to value Cai Yun so much. If she had known earlier…
Madam Zeng sighed and waved her hand to dismiss Nanny Liu and Nanny Cai. She personally helped Liu Piaopiao sit down in front of the bed.
“Did you find out that Cai Yun didn’t hang herself?” When Madam Zeng said this, she seemed to have instantly aged ten years.
No one was willing to show their dark side to their children and personally break their beautiful impression of them.
Liu Piaopiao’s pupils constricted. “Mother!”
“Listen to Mother.” Madam Zeng pulled Liu Piaopiao’s hands and patted them to comfort her. “That girl might not want to be chased out, but she actually wanted to climb into your father’s bed.”
After all, this was a matter between the two of them, and it was such a topic. Madam Zeng probably felt embarrassed and did not look too good. “That day, your father was busy in the study, and Mother happened to go over to deliver supper to him.
“I saw her dressed up and wandering around sneakily. How could Mother give her this chance?”
After praying in front of the Buddha statues in the side halls, Shen Yijia finally remembered Liu Piaopiao and wanted to give her a surprise. Shen Yijia, who was about to climb through the window at the back of the house, was shocked.
She silently retracted her hand from the windowsill. In order not to embarrass the person inside, she squatted down and planned to slip away quietly.
Liu Piaopiao’s voice sounded as if she was about to break down. “Then what about the people who were carried out of the elegant residence? Were they also trying to climb into Father’s bed? Also, do we come to Jing’an Temple every month or two just to offer incense?”
“Mother, what are you and Father doing?”
“You- Do you know everything?”
“I’d rather I didn’t know anything. That way, my father would still be a great benefactor praised by the citizens of Xunyang City. My mother would still be that gentle and dignified living Bodhisattva who couldn’t even bear to trample an ant to death.”
“Didn’t you teach me to be upright and kind since I was young? I grew up wanting to be like the both of you, but what are you doing?”
