The Doctor's Concubine: Kick the Scumbag King and I Want to Be a Dandy Girl in the Capital
Chapter 60: Are you bringing trouble to me with your coquettish look?
Xiu Luoran left Gong's house and did not go home, but strolled on the street.
She wanted to take a good look at how the roads in the capital were being repaired.
You know what, the speed is really fast.
Although this dynasty had few machinery, it had too many people. By using the human wave tactic, everything could be accomplished.
Xiu Luoran saw that the main road had been repaired and the small roads were now being repaired.
Xiu Luoran was very happy. This meant that if she wanted to leave the city again, she could ride the Tayun instead of riding a donkey.
After these days of feeding, Tayun has grown a lot fatter and become even more majestic.
Xiu Luoran did not go to find Yuan Ling. She was very satisfied with what she saw.
Little did she know that Yuan Ling, who was supervising the work, saw her and ran over:
“Miss Xiu, I know that in a few days, many people will go to Jingxin Temple outside the city to attend the Buddhist meeting of the nun Zang An.
Therefore, they increased the wages by two cents per day and allowed the road builders to work half an hour longer.
Finally, yesterday, all the main roads were repaired, making it convenient for people who want to ride horses out of the city."
Xiu Luoran smiled and said, "Master Yuan, you have done a great job. According to the current situation, is the money I gave you enough? If not..."
"Enough, enough, maybe there's a little left over."
"That's good. Master Yuan, what is this Buddhist meeting you just mentioned?"
Yuan Ling looked at Xiu Luoran in surprise:
"Miss Xiu, didn't you say that you have lived in Jingxin Temple for more than ten years? How come you don't know this?"
Xiu Luoran flipped through the original owner's memories, and he actually had some impression of it.
"Master Yuan, I am just a yard sweeper in the nunnery and rarely leave those courtyards.
So, I really don’t know what the Buddha will be like.”
I see. No wonder Miss Xiu is so petite, she must have suffered a lot since she was a child.
Yuan Ling explained to Xiu Luoran:
“This Buddhist meeting is actually a meeting where Tibetan nuns interpret Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist teachings.
Although it was held in a nunnery, many dignitaries attended and it was a huge event.
Every time someone comes back to say that they benefit a lot from it.”
Xiu Luoran smiled and thanked Yuan Ling:
"I understand. You guys continue working. I'm going home."
Xiu Luoran lay on the bed. She wanted to carefully sort out the original owner's memories.
The short life of a little girl over a dozen years flashed through Xiu Luoran's mind...
The little girl, who had just learned to walk, was sweeping the yard with a big broom that was much taller than her.
As soon as I was able to hold an axe, I started chopping wood and almost chopped off my fingers many times.
In the little girl's memory, she only saw Master Kufang twice.
I don’t remember why it happened the first time.
The second time, the Xiu family gave the nunnery another sum of money. After the Xiu family left, Master Kufang came to see her.
As soon as Master Kufang came in, she chased Master Kulian out.
Then she sat down and stared at the little girl.
The little girl trembled under her cold and vicious gaze.
"You are a poor little thing abandoned by your family, why should I serve you?
Is it a big deal that your mansion is rich?
Humph, if your mansion hadn't sent enough money, I would have strangled you to death long ago.
At such a young age, he has a pair of charming eyes and a striking face. What will happen when he grows up?
This is a nunnery, not a theatre troupe. Are you bringing trouble to me with your coquettish look?
Ku Lian, come in.
From today on, this kid can only eat two meals a day, and he can only eat half full at each meal.
"It's fine as long as it doesn't die, as long as its intestines are two and a half feet empty."
From that time on, the little girl’s memory was that she was hungry every day and never had a full meal.
Master Ku Lian felt sorry for her and once gave her half a bowl of porridge.
Someone was quick-witted but told Ku Fang about it, and he ordered someone to beat Ku Lian half to death.
Ku Lian whispered to her, it’s good to be alive, as long as you are alive there is hope.
From then on, the little girl never saw Master Ku Lian again.
The little girl had endless work to do every day, and the food she got was just enough to keep her from starving to death.
Once, the little girl was very hungry and walked out of the yard to look for food.
Because she had never been out of the yard and didn't know the way, she walked around and came to the back of a Zen room.
There were people talking inside, and she was afraid of being discovered and beaten, so she squatted quietly outside the window, ready to wait for the people inside to leave before going in to find something to eat.
The little girl was very smart and had a good memory. She remembered the conversations of the people in the room very clearly.
A man's voice said:
"The Buddhist meeting is about to be held. How are you preparing?"
Then I heard Ku Fang say: "Master, don't worry about my work. I have already made all the arrangements."
The male voice asked again: "Is there anything abnormal with Zang An?"
Ku Fang replied: "She is a true Buddhist disciple. In her eyes, these yellow and white things are just external possessions and worldly things. She doesn't even look at them.
Every time she came to the nunnery, apart from eating and sleeping, she would read Buddhist scriptures and talk about Buddhism, and she never cared about anything else. "
The male voice paused for a moment and then said:
"That girl from the Zhenxi Marquis's Mansion, is she still alive?"
Ku Fang said: "That girl is very tough and lively."
"Did you find anything peculiar about her?"
Ku Fang replied: “No.”
The man left, and Ku Fang was sent away.
The little girl's legs were numb, and she tried to stand up and straighten them, but she accidentally hit the window and made a noise.
The little girl was frightened because she could hear Kufang coming back.
She hurriedly wiped out the traces under her feet, returned the same way, and quietly entered her own yard.
He picked up a big broom and swept the yard quickly. In no time, he had swept a large area clean, as if he had been sweeping for a long time.
The nun who brought her food came in, glanced at the yard, and asked the little girl:
"Did you just go out?"
The little girl shook her head.
The nun glared at her fiercely:
"If you dare to run around, I'll break your legs."
While the little girl was sleeping at night, someone forced medicine into her mouth and she swallowed it obediently.
After the people left, she dug her throat and spit out the medicine.
From then on, the little girl stopped talking and did whatever she was told to do.
On the day she left the nunnery and returned home, she was drugged again.
There were always people around her, so she couldn't spit it out.
When they were almost reaching the capital, they entered a grove and someone came to assassinate them.
An arrow whistled towards her, and a nun grabbed her in front of her to block the arrow.
They were safe, and the nun let go.
The little girl was so weak that she fell under the car and hit her head on a big rock, leaving a big hole in the back of her head. She died instantly.
She...a modern spy, a surgeon with a knife, a Chinese medicine practitioner Xiu Luoran, has traveled through time.
After watching the "movie", Xiu Luoran was extremely angry and cried for the little girl who died without ever seeing her relatives.
As a young lady from a marquis's family, she could have lived a life of luxury, but she had to endure fifteen years in a nunnery.
In the end, I couldn’t make it.
Xiu Luoran climbed out of the bed. She wanted to find Xiu Yuancang and hear the reasons why he had to send the child away.
