Chapter 350
As soon as Xiaoyue'er was confinement, she encountered a bloody disaster, and Lu Shi felt uneasy, so Liu suggested that she go to the Guofo Temple to pay homage.

"I heard that going to the Guofo Temple to ask for a lottery is very effective. I haven't worshiped the Buddha since I came to the imperial capital. It's time to do so. Xiao'er, do you have anything to do on the ninth day of next month? If you don't have anything to do, I will talk to you." Let's go together!" After dinner, Mrs. Liu asked Xiao'er for her opinion after talking about Mrs. Lu's meaning.

The ninth day of next month is the Double Ninth Festival. Many people will definitely go to the Guofo Temple on the Double Ninth Festival. I should accompany them. Thinking of this, Xiaoer nodded.

"Mother, my eldest brother and I will not accompany you, we are going to Kuixing Tower!"

Liu looked at Shen Chengyao.

Shen Chengyao shook his head, "I had something to do in the yamen that day, so I couldn't leave. After leaving the yamen, I'll pick you up and go home."

Yun'er just got inspired, but she also said she would not go.

"Okay, then we mother and daughter will go by ourselves. Rui'er and Hao'er, you must be careful when you go to Zhuangyuan Peak, don't conflict with other people, you know?"

The two brothers nodded.

Guofo Temple is located on the mountainside of Yueyun Mountain. There is a Yueyun Tower on the top of Yueyun Mountain. It is shrouded in clouds and mist all the year round, and it is quite mysterious.

Xiaoer wanted to take the opportunity to go up and have a look.

Yueyun Tower was built by the Emperor Taizu for Master Yuanhui, Master Yunfa's master. I like to wander around, so Yueyun Tower is vacant.

The vacant Yueyun Tower, Master Yunfa has instructed that it will be open to the public every year on Chongyang Festival, so that everyone can enjoy climbing to the top and looking far.

It's just that Yueyang Tower is built too high, not many people are willing to go up.

Moreover, most of the people who went up were royal nobles, and ordinary people met them, and they deliberately avoided it because more things are worse than less things. Over time, ordinary people stopped going.

Fortunately, there are many places in the imperial capital where people can climb mountains.

There is Dafo Temple in Yueyun Mountain, Guanyin Temple in Xiangshan Mountain, Yaowang Temple in Dafu Mountain, Yuelao Temple in Xiyue Mountain, and Kuixing Tower in Zhuangyuan Peak.

Kuixing Tower is the place where the three gods, Wenchang Emperor, Wenquxing and Kuixing, are enshrined, and it is also the place where most students go to on the Double Ninth Festival.

These temples are all located halfway up the mountain, which not only meets the needs of people to climb high and look far away on Chongyang Festival, but also satisfies everyone's desire to pray for gods and worship Buddha.

As for which temple to go to, it depends on everyone's needs.

Many young ladies go to the Avalokitesvara Temple because there is a golden statue of Avalokitesvara.

Some girls will make a special trip to worship one month before they get married, with the purpose of giving birth to a baby early after marriage.

On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, even though Xiao'er's family started to leave the city at dawn, when they reached the foot of Yueyun Mountain, there were already cars and horses parked nearby.

It can be said that Yue Yunshan was crowded with people today, both Liu Shi and Lu Shi regretted choosing to come here today.

Seeing that the road up the mountain was full of human heads, Mrs. Lu glanced at the little daughter in her arms, and said, "Why don't we come again on the fifteenth day!"

"But this has already come to the foot of the mountain. If you don't go up to burn incense, will the Buddha blame you?" Mrs. Liu is more pious, but she is a little embarrassed to see the mountain road full of people.

Lu didn't know how to answer these words, how could she know whether the Buddha would blame him or not.

It's fine if Mrs. Liu doesn't say it, and Mrs. Lu is also worried when Mrs. Liu said this.

"All the temples in the imperial capital are crowded with people on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. Since you are here, let's go up with the flow of people." Seeing this, Xiao'er said.

Ruan Weizhen also came out to climb the mountain with her mother today.

Her mother asked her to come here to thank the Buddha, and the Buddha blessed her not to marry the eldest prince.

As soon as she got off the carriage, she saw Xiao'er and the others standing beside her, so she and Mrs. Ruan walked over to salute.

Xiao'er had a good impression of her, and there was a hint of enthusiasm in her voice: "Madam Ruan and Miss Ruan are also here to climb the mountain? What a coincidence."

"Yeah, it's not a coincidence, let's go together, Mrs. Rui'an, as I also have something to ask."

"Okay." Xiao'er readily accepted.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu said, "Then let's go together, and everyone will take care of each other."

When a group of people came to the Guofo Temple, Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Ruan finished offering incense, begging for lottery, and added money for the sesame oil, and hurriedly queued up to get the lottery.

To show her sincerity, Mrs. Liu also queued up by herself without her maid. Seeing this, Mrs. Ruan also queued up herself.

Xiao'er and Ruan Weizhen found a place under the shade of a tree, stood chatting, and waited for them by the way.

"Is there a lot of medicinal herbs grown in Rui'an county master's house?"

Xiao'er nodded after hearing this: "It's too much. At the beginning of this year, I bought two hills in Chengxiao dedicated to growing medicinal herbs. There is also a barren hill in my hometown in Shengping County that is full of medicinal herbs."

Her family already has herbal medicine shops in every state capital across the country. Can you not order more medicinal herbs?

"What does Miss Ruan usually do at home?" Xiao'er asked.

She wanted to find a wife for the compulsory school, and maybe Ruan Weizhen would be suitable.

"I spend most of my time at home studying medicine."

Xiao'er thought she would hear about practicing piano and calligraphy, but she didn't expect to be studying medicine.

Sensing Xiao'er's surprise, Ruan Weizhen explained: "My grandfather is Doctor Luo. I probably inherited his old man's hobbies, so I have been interested in medical skills since I was a child."

Yes, Ruan Weizhen is the granddaughter of Imperial Physician Luo, how could she have forgotten!
Seeing Xiao'er's suddenly realized expression, Ruan Weizhen smiled, "This time when my grandfather returned to Beijing, he often mentioned the family of County Lord Rui'an, so I didn't realize that I was a little more kind to you. Don't blame me for being abrupt. It's okay. Thanks to County Lord Rui'an's family for taking care of my grandfather!"

"Miss Ruan is being polite, Doctor Luo is my savior."

"County Lord Rui'an, please call me Wei Zhen. That's the duty of a doctor. Saving people is the right thing to do." Ruan Weizhen smiled calmly.

"County Lord Rui'an, can I teach you how to grow medicinal materials? To tell the truth, I grow medicinal materials, and what I grow will die." Ruan Weizhen blushed embarrassedly at this point.

She heard from her grandfather that the medicinal materials grown in Rui'an county master's house are very good, so she wanted to ask for advice.

"Okay! Wei Zhen can come to the Shengping Hou Mansion to find me when she is free. Don't worry, I will know everything and talk endlessly. You can also call me Xiao'er!" Xiao'er said mischievously.

Ruan Weizhen nodded with a smile.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, first let my lady release the lottery, otherwise my lady's skin will be tanned by the sun, and none of you can afford it!" In the line not far away, a maid said to her that it was her turn. The old woman who released the lottery said fiercely.

Xiaoer looked over and frowned.

Mrs. Liu has been standing behind the old lady. Everyone has been waiting under the sun for a long time, and everyone is dying from the heat.

Moreover, the old woman was a little shaky after standing for a long time.When she heard the servant girl's words, she raised her head and glanced at her, then at the young lady who was standing behind the servant girl with a curtain, worried about offending the nobleman, she only sighed in her heart, and wanted to leave.
