After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall
Chapter 154 Obsession
However, Cui Rong's brows were secretly furrowed, and an indescribable uneasiness rose in her heart. She didn't know if this was just her overly sensitive guess.
The next morning, the old lady of the Wen family went to Zhaojue Temple to worship and pray. All the female members of the Wen family accompanied her, except the third lady and Cui Yunhe, who were absent for some reason.
The carriage team moved forward spectacularly. When they arrived at the gate of Zhaojue Temple, the eldest lady supported the old lady and walked in slowly. The abbot of the temple personally greeted them. The grand ceremony was enough to show the prominent status of the Wen family.
Everyone first came to the main hall, burned incense reverently, donated money, and then burned the Buddhist scriptures they had copied by hand to pray for blessings for the Wen family.
After the ceremony, the old lady looked a little tired, so she went to the meditation room in the backyard to rest, and the women of the Wen family also found places to rest.
Cui Rong followed silently until the Wen family members dispersed. Then she walked to the futon alone, knelt down and kowtowed three times, put her hands together, and silently said in her heart: "May everything in the world go well."
When he stood up, Su Yue hurried forward to support him, and the two walked out of the Buddhist hall side by side.
"Did the girl pray for a good marriage?"
Su Yue asked curiously.
Cui Rong smiled faintly: "At this moment, I don't have such thoughts in my mind."
"I heard that the cherry blossoms on the back hill are in full bloom. The Fifth Miss couldn't wait to go see them right after she arrived. The Seventh Miss might be there too. Why don't we go take a walk there too?"
Cui Rongrong was about to open her red lips to reply, when suddenly, a pleasant voice like a spring breeze came from behind her: "Miss Cui Rongrong!"
This voice, with a hint of brightness and familiarity, broke the early morning tranquility of Zhaojue Temple.
She paused, turned slightly, and where her eyes fell, a young man with an upright figure and outstanding temperament came into view. It was none other than Lin Han.
Cui Rongrong's eyes flashed with surprise, as if this chance encounter was beyond her expectations: "Mr. Lin, how come we meet here? Could it be that you are also seeking a wisp of Zen incense to calm your mind and prepare for the Spring Examination?"
Lin Han's face looked even more resolute under the morning light, and the light in his eyes revealed his inner joy without reservation: "That's right. I heard that Zhaojue Temple is very effective. The spring exam is coming soon, so I came here specially to pray for blessings. I didn't expect to meet a beautiful woman in this deep Zen place."
Cui Rongrong raised her lips to a faint smile, gentle and reserved, like a newly opened petal: "It's just a coincidence. Because the old lady is devout to Buddhism, I am here to accompany her and listen to the Buddhist chanting in the early morning."
"I heard that the young lady was ill a few days ago. Is she feeling better now?"
Lin Han's concern was evident in his words, and his tone was full of sincere care.
"Thank you for your concern, Master Lin. I am fine now. Master Lin, the most important thing right now is to prepare for the exam. You don't need to be distracted by me."
There was a certain calmness and ease in Cui Rong's answer.
Lin Han nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of gratitude: "The medicine bag the girl gave me is really effective. When I put it on my desk in the dead of night, it not only dispels the fatigue of reading at night, but also helps me feel peaceful and worry-free because of the aroma of the medicine. I no longer suffer from anxiety and insomnia."
When Cui Rongrong heard this, her smile became even warmer, like the warm sunshine in spring, shining gently into people's hearts.
"It is a comfort to me that Master Lin can benefit from this."
Seeing her beautiful smile, Lin Han's face was subconsciously slightly hot, his eyes were slightly shy, avoiding that heart-beating brilliance: "The girl's hand-made medicine capsule is far more effective than those on the market. Could it be that the girl is not only talented, but also well versed in medical theory?"
Cui Rong walked down the winding stone steps with lotus steps, shook her head and said modestly, "I don't dare to say I'm proficient in it, but my father has been dealing in medicinal materials since I was a child, so I have some knowledge of pharmacology."
When she was young, she often went to her father's shop which was filled with the aroma of medicine. She not only learned the basics of medical skills and pharmacology, but also mastered complex account management. She was even good at skillfully integrating medicinal materials into meals, concocting medicated meals and soups that could nourish the body and mind and were favored by wealthy families.
These skills have invisibly contributed to the family's medicinal materials business, making it increasingly prosperous.
However, when talking about that turbulent period, Cui Rong's eyes became deep, as if there was an unspeakable secret.
When she was only fourteen, her newlywed stepmother was eager to arrange a marriage for her, but… the confusion and resistance about the future, like an undercurrent hidden in her heart, stirred her soul and made it difficult for her to calm down.
Lin Han stared at her, his heart agitated, not just admiration, but also some indescribable emotion arising spontaneously.
He bowed deeply and said sincerely, "It turns out that the girl is not only talented, but also has such a sophisticated medicine-making technique. This alone shows how extraordinary the girl is.
If you can open a clinic or a medicine shop, it will not only benefit the local area, but also be a perfect display of your talent. Why worry about not being able to achieve great things?"
Cui Rongrong's smile became even brighter after hearing Lin Han's words, like a ray of warm sunshine in the severe winter, illuminating everything around her.
"My ambition is to build a herbal medicine clinic, where I can see patients every day and give free medicine to the poor and sick on the 15th of every month.
The hall not only provides a variety of nourishing foods, medicinal foods and medicine bags to meet the needs of the rich, but also helps the poor and support themselves. Once the model is feasible, I hope to promote it to benefit more people. "
When Lin Han heard this, his eyes flashed with admiration, and then he fell into deep thought, as if he was reflecting on his own shortcomings.
"You have the world in your heart, which is a blessing for Qingzhou. In comparison, I am a twenty-three-year-old man who still cannot figure out my life direction. I feel ashamed."
Cui Rongrong responded to Lin Han's self-blame with a gentle look and words of comfort: "Young Master, you are young and promising. It is rare for you to pass the imperial examination. You must not underestimate yourself. The road ahead is still long and broad."
Lin Han looked at Cui Rongrong, and the waves in his heart seemed to have found direction at this moment, and courage quietly gathered in his words.
"If I can pass the imperial examination this time, I, I wish..."
His voice suddenly became choked, and his cheeks flushed, "I am willing to marry you for the rest of my life."
Cui Rongrong was slightly startled. Seeing him so nervous, she couldn't help but smile: "Sir, your words make me feel like I have become a stake in the imperial examination. Even if I can't pass the imperial examination, how can true feelings be measured by those worldly honors?"
Lin Han suddenly realized something and stared blankly at Cui Rong's gradually receding figure. His heart felt as if ice and snow were melting and a warm current was flowing.
Cui Rong's words were like a powerful force that made him feel as if he was under the dazzling fireworks. The joy in his heart surpassed any fame.
And what Cui Rong wanted in her heart was just a place where she could feel at ease.
Even though there were undercurrents at home, she had already prepared for the worst and took her sister Ajin and left quietly.
