Chapter 357 - 356: Such a Coincidence
"But..." Both children were somewhat confused and wanted to continue asking, but Chu Lingxuan shook his head and said, "We’ll discuss it further once we’re back at Tang Garden."
Chu Lingxuan then asked Marquis Chu, "Seeing that we’re already here, should we go see my mother?"
Marquis Chu glanced again at the Yingxue Nunnery, standing alone in the middle of the forest, surrounded by ancient towering trees and red walls hidden by the black tiles, looking more secluded and extraordinary... He felt a certain satisfaction just by looking at it from a distance.
He shook his head and sighed, "Alas, it’s not the time yet. I’d rather not upset her. Please do accompany my mother well. She’s alone here all the time."
After saying this, with a look of melancholy, Marquis Chu left the pavilion and headed towards the Lingyin Temple at the foot of the mountain.
As he took a few steps, Chu Hanyan called out, "Grandfather."
Upon hearing Chu Hanyan addressing him so, Marquis Chu turned around with delight.
Seeing him looking back, Chu Hanyan asked in a soft voice, twisting her chubby little finger, "Sister wants to know.. was there any leak in the umbrella..."
Dabao, seeing that she hadn’t made herself clear, loudly added, "What my sister means is, was there a hole in the umbrella used to shield the princess from bird dung? Was the princess hit by poo?"
Marquis Chu was surprised that these two children could ask such a difficult question. Seeing the expectation in their eyes, he forced a smile and said, "Well, it seems there was a small hole." Then he quickly turned around and left.
