Notes of Lanxi Crossing

Chapter 16
"Third brother, come and make a wish later, and blow out the candle when you finish your wish!" Lan Xi turned to look at him expectantly.

Lan Jiu was happy in her heart, but also a little shy, holding back the smile on her lips and deliberately asked her: "This wish can be fulfilled? Will it work!"

"Oh, whether you are annoying or not is a beautiful meaning, just do it!"

Lan Jiu was stared at by the smiling family members, and felt a little more shy in her heart. Compared with usual, she seemed a little awkward.

Looking at the strange and interesting cake, he silently made his wish in his heart. Under the kind applause led by Lan Xi, he blew out the candle with a long breath, and a happy smile bloomed on his face no longer concealed.

After making his wish, Lanxi used a long thin bamboo knife to divide the cake into many small pieces, and not only served a small plate for each family member, but also the servants present.

Where have the servants eaten such a good thing? The important thing is that it is specially made for the third son's birthday. Aren't they blessed? All kinds of auspicious words come out of their mouths as if they don't need money.

Anyone can say good things, but the key is to wish sincerely. Lan Jiu was moved when she saw this scene.

"Xi'er, next month will be your birthday, what gift do you want, third brother will definitely find it for you!"

Lan Xi didn't have anything in particular that she wanted, she didn't have to worry about food and clothing here, and the food was all the best, and she became a little rich woman, she didn't lack anything at all.

If there was anything bad about it, it would be that it was too boring. No matter how big the Song Mansion was, it couldn't stand her wandering around for two years.

"Father, mother, can I go out to play on my birthday!"

Song Qinnian laughed, this little daughter has always been his joy.

"You girl, what's wrong with your family? Why do you want to go out to play all day long?"

Liu Yunyao cast an angry look at him, it's not something he's used to.

"Haven't you been shopping enough on the street? Go if you want, and let your brothers and sisters accompany you."

She doesn't want it, what's the point of wandering around just those few shops.

"Mother, I'm tired of visiting those shops, can I go to another place this time?"

Lan Xi chuckled, and Liu Yunyao suddenly felt bad.

"Somewhere else?"

"Yeah, I heard from Manager Wan that there is a very efficacious temple outside the city, otherwise let's go to offer incense!"

Liu Yunyao glanced lightly at this restless guy, and raised her eyelids.

Is this agreed?Lanxi Surprise!

"It's still the same sentence. If you are obedient, I will take you there. If you dare to make trouble, I will immediately push you home!"

Liu Yunyao took the trouble to confess, and Lan Xi cheerfully agreed, she is used to it, there are three chapters in the agreement, it's okay!

Anyway, I really messed with my mother when the time comes, and she still has other ways to coax her!
It was agreed to go to Hanshan Temple next month, and everyone happily continued to celebrate Song Lanjiu's tenth birthday.

Although Liu Yunyao agreed with her to visit Hanshan Temple, it is impossible for her to celebrate her birthday in the temple, what kind of talk is that.

Because Lanxi's birthday is in late July, Liu Yunyao took her away half a month earlier.

This time I will stay in Shangxiang for ten and a half months. Song Qinnian is definitely not able to go because he is busy with work. Song Lanzhang has no time to prepare for the provincial examination. Song Lanjiu worshiped Liu Xinwei as his teacher. If he can go, he must ask his master first. .

As for Lan Shu...

Lan Xi wanted to sigh when she thought of what the second sister said at the time. She was only 13 years old, but she had already started to learn the rules of the so-called ladies, and she didn't usually go out easily.

Will the second sister's today be her future?
Lan Xi didn't want to think about this problem, anyway, she was still young, so it was too early to say these things.

Hanshan Temple is in the outskirts of Beijing, even so, they still have to take a carriage for half a day to get there.

The mountain road was steep and narrow, not to mention that they were carrying carriages and luggage, and they were most afraid of encountering people on narrow roads.

Unexpectedly, it was such a coincidence that when they walked halfway up the mountain, a group of people followed behind them, and the guards among them were wearing armor, and they seemed to be relatives of the emperor.

The guards of the mansion did not dare to underestimate them, and when they found out that the man was from Prince Qin's mansion, they hurriedly reported to Liu Yunyao.

After Liu Yunyao learned about it, she first stopped the carriages and horses, and then asked the eldest maid, Mo Yan, to test the meaning of the palace.

Liu Yunyao was in a bit of a dilemma. Logically speaking, they couldn't press down on the royal family. It's just that the mountain road is narrow, and now it's halfway up the mountain, so they can't enter or retreat. It's really worrying!
Fortunately, Mo Yan came back with the news after a while. It turned out that Princess Qin brought Prince Qin's son to the temple to pray for blessings and offer incense.

Princess Qin has always been gentle and charitable, she told Liu Yunyao and the others to move forward as fast as they could without panicking or giving in.

Liu Yunyao breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't dare to go up the mountain at the same speed as before to enjoy the scenery, so she told the driver to speed up a little and go up the mountain earlier.

Liu Yunyao accelerated, but Qin Wangfei's people were still walking slowly. They had all entered the temple for half an hour, but the people from the palace hadn't been seen yet.

Liu Yunyao originally wanted to hold Lan Xi to greet Princess Qin for a while, but she really couldn't stand her daughter's pestering, so she could only let her play with the maids.

Lanxi led Baizhi Baixue out of the main hall of the temple, happily wandering around the meditation room.

"Miss, why did you go there again? Wait for me!" Bai Xue shouted after Lan Xi who suddenly turned around.

Lan Xi secretly smiled inwardly, this time when she went out, she deliberately put Lu Luo in the yard to watch over the house, and only brought Yu Tang and Bai Zhi Bai Xue out.

Yutang was not like Luluo, who used to be Madam's maid. Without special circumstances, she usually did not dare to disobey her orders, so she sent her to tidy up the house.

As for Baizhi Baixue, these two silly girls would be easier to deal with, no, Lanxi spared a few temples at will and left them far behind.

Lan Xi turned around and yelled at the two of them: "I'll just wander around and come back soon, you are not allowed to tell mother, otherwise I will only bring Qingye and Shuangzhi with me when I come out next time!"

Before the two maids could stop her in shock, she quickly walked around to the back of the hall and completely disappeared in front of them.

"What should I do? Are you really not going to tell Madam?" Bai Zhi bit her lips, discussing with her sisters anxiously.

"Let's look for it first. This is a temple. Normally, there is no danger." Bai Xue hesitated and said, "However, if Miss does not come back after half an hour, we must notify Madam as soon as possible."

Bai Xue nodded as she agreed to the decision.

There is no better way, if you complain to Madam now, Madam will reward them, but I am afraid that in the future I will not be able to serve Miss closely again.

On the other side, Lan Xi, who got rid of the two girls, only felt that the sky was high and the sea was wide, and even her breathing became much easier.

It's not like she had tried this trick on Luluo before at home, but she didn't fall for it at all, and it even caused her to be reprimanded by her mother.
