“Well, since you don’t like it, Master won’t say anything.”
Master Mochou touched her head, checked her homework, and said to her, “By the way, you should go down the mountain with Master in a while.”
“Hmm? Can I follow Master down the mountain?”
Wen Si was not in a very good mood at first, but after hearing this, her eyes immediately lit up.
“sure.”
Nun Mochou smiled and said, “I have a patient at the foot of the mountain. I need to go down the mountain to see her…”
Halfway through her words, she hesitated again, “But the other party’s identity might be a little embarrassing for you.”
“What is your identity?”
Wen Si asked curiously.
“That person is the old lady of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion.”
As soon as Master Mochou said this, Wen Si immediately understood what she was worried about.
The old lady of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is also the grandmother of her ex-fiancé Cui Shaoze.
Wen Si smiled and said, “So it’s that old lady. It’s okay, Master. I have already cancelled my engagement with the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. Since I’m not going to look for Cui Shaoze specifically, what’s there to be shy about?”
“Good boy, I hope you can look at it in a positive light.”
Originally, Master Mochou was also very worried about her in this matter.
Because she had learned from previous inquiries that Wen Si and Cui Shaoze were childhood sweethearts and had a deep relationship.
Unfortunately, later on, that kid Cui Shaoze hurt the girl’s heart badly.
If it weren’t for the fact that the old lady of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery had shown some favor to her in her early years, she would not have agreed to this.
Wen Si saw that Master Mochou looked relieved, and she couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Master, you haven’t been struggling with this for a long time, have you?”
“yes.”
Nun Mochou pointed at her own face and said, “Look at my face. I didn’t sleep well last night.”
If Wen Si hadn’t been in a bad mood today and she hadn’t wanted to take her down the mountain to play for a while, she wouldn’t have brought up this matter.
Wen Si waved her hand nonchalantly, “It’s okay, Master, I really don’t care about this matter anymore.”
“And didn’t Master teach me that a monk should cut off the six desires, including the word love.”
Wen Si raised her hand and chanted “Amitabha”.
Master Mochou was immediately amused by her serious look.
“Okay, since you don’t care anymore, then follow me down the mountain to take a look. The old lady of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion had a heart disease in her early years, but she was well taken care of before and didn’t have many attacks. But now that she is old, she often has attacks. When the time comes, you can follow me and see how I treat patients.”
“If the treatment ends early, I’ll give you half a day to go out for a walk on the street. How about that?”
“Good! Great! Thank you, Master.”
Wen Si was immediately overjoyed. She hugged Master Mochou and rubbed against her happily.
This little action really made Master Mochou feel extremely soft-hearted.
It was also the umpteenth time that he was puzzled in his heart: such a lovely girl, why would the Duke of Zhenguo and others not like her?
I clearly remember that this girl was the apple of the eye of the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion.
But now there are so many fakes mixed in with the real ones, and the people in the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion are really blind.
Soon it was time to go down the mountain.
Wen Si packed a cloth bag, slung it over her shoulder, and went out with Master Mochou.
Because they are all people who are practicing hard now, there is naturally no carriage to take when they go down the mountain.
After walking to the foot of the mountain, he stopped a villager’s ox cart, gave him a few copper coins, got on the ride and slowly headed towards the capital.
They arrived in the capital, thanked the villagers and said goodbye, then the master and disciple slowly walked towards the direction of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s Mansion.
The entire journey took a full three hours.
Fortunately, they set out early and arrived before noon.
After Wen Si, the little attendant, explained their identities to the doorman of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s Mansion, someone from the Mansion soon came out to greet them.
They brought both the master and the disciple to the old lady’s yard.
When Master Mochou was treating the old lady, Wen Si was listening by the side and helping her master from time to time.
Seeing the serious look, the old lady couldn’t help but smile, “This little master is really well-behaved. Is he Master Mochou’s new disciple?”
“Well, I just adopted him a month ago. He is indeed a well-behaved child.”
Master Mochou spoke calmly.
“I see. This child looks somewhat familiar to me. Could it be that he is from some family in the capital and I have met him once before?”
Because they hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and Wen Si was wearing a cassock robe and a small nun’s hat today, the old lady didn’t seem to recognize Wen Si.
Wen Si didn’t say anything.
Only Master Mochou replied for her: “Maybe I have seen him, but it’s not meant to be.”
The four words “we are not destined to be together” made the old lady stunned for a moment.
But she didn’t think much about it and just thought it was just a casual remark from Master Mochou.
But when the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery walked in, she saw Wen Si sitting beside the bed and blurted out in shock –
“Wen Si? Why are you here, you damn girl?”
Wen Yali’s words instantly made Master Mochou’s face darken, and also made the old lady of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery look stunned.
