Chapter 230 Temple Prayer
Chapter 230 Temple Prayer
Su Heng picked up Xuanxuan and asked him to sit at the dining table. Xuanxuan quickly said, "Uncle Su, a little bug bit Mommy!"
"Oh?" Su Heng raised his eyebrows and his eyes moved over Jiang Man.
Jiang Man turned his head away, embarrassed to look him in the eye.
"Yes! Uncle Su, you didn't protect my mother well." Xuanxuan pouted in dissatisfaction.
Su Heng raised his eyebrows and said jokingly, "Dad is wrong this time. I promise your mother won't be bitten again next time."
Jiang Man lowered his head and kicked Su Heng lightly.
Su Heng caught it easily, put Xuanxuan down, and said slowly, "Come to think of it, I was bitten by a bug yesterday too."
Xuanxuan looked at him in surprise. In his little world, Uncle Su was omnipotent.
Su Heng said quietly, "That little bug was very naughty. It left quite a few marks on my body."
"How pitiful." Xuanxuan looked worried.
Jiang Man decided to immediately end this topic that was not conducive to the healthy growth of children, and hurriedly said: "Xuanxuan, hurry up, otherwise you will be late."
"Oh oh." After hearing what his mother said, Xuanxuan obediently returned to his seat to eat breakfast.
Jiang Manze quietly went back to his room to change clothes. As soon as he entered the room, he slammed the door shut and rummaged through the drawers to look for something.
"What treasure are you looking for?" Su Heng asked while leaning against the door.
"An ointment to reduce swelling and itching." Jiang Man blurted out. Su Heng smiled and glanced at her neck. "I think this embellishment is quite unique."
Jiang Manyi closed his eyes and said, "Stop talking."
Su Heng tactfully stopped talking and kindly reminded, "It should be placed in the second compartment of the cabinet on the right."
Jiang Man quickly found the ointment and applied it.
He asked in confusion: "Why do you care so much?"
"You'll be laughed at!"
He walked over to her and gently pinched her cheek with his fingers, "You're just messing with yourself."
Jiang Man glared at him coquettishly, "It hurts, let go!"
He looked at her with a half-smile, with no intention of letting go. Jiang Man opened his mouth and bit down. Su Heng did not dodge, and a tooth mark immediately appeared on the back of her hand.
Looking at the bite marks on his hand guiltily, Jiang Man smacked his lips and said, "Be more careful next time."
Su Heng raised his eyebrows, "Then you should bite deeper so that you can remember it better.
Jiang Man turned his head and said, "Not serious."
The two of them first sent Xuanxuan to kindergarten. Then, leaning against the car window, they watched Xuanxuan leave. Suddenly, their eyes fixed, and as if they had seen something, they said, "I'm getting off here!"
Jiang Man's eyes were full of confusion, "Here? Why don't you just go home?"
Jiang Man nodded steadily. How could he be relieved? He took out his cell phone and was about to make a call, "I'd better ask Bai Xue to pick you up."
Before he could dial the number, Su Heng took the phone away and glanced at Wen Wen, "You go down."
Wenwen jumped out of the car happily, stood outside the car and bowed obediently, "Thank you." After that, he ran towards the park not far away.
"Steady..." Jiang Man opened his mouth and was about to unbuckle his seat belt to chase him.
Before she could make a move, Su Heng held her hand and asked, "Where are you going?"
Jiang Man frowned, seemingly not understanding his actions, "Wenwen is so young, what if something happens to her?"
"You worry too much." Su Heng let go of her hand, looked past her, and looked in the direction where the steady left. "His old housekeeper is over there."
"Old housekeeper?" Hearing Su Heng's words, Jiang Man immediately leaned against the window, "I didn't see it."
Su Heng shook his head and chuckled, "With your observation skills, this is not difficult to understand."
Jiang Man turned his head and asked, "Excuse me, Mr. Su, are you mocking me?"
Su Heng nodded directly.
Jiang Man gritted his teeth and ignored him. Looking towards the small park, he asked in confusion, "Why didn't he let us know that he was the young master of the Pu family?"
Su Heng said: "That child is more mature than his peers."
Jiang Man agreed.
He suddenly asked, "Didn't you want me to spend the whole day with you yesterday?"
Jiang Man nodded immediately, "I want to go to Yinyun Temple."
Su Heng's eyes fell on her, "What are you going to do?"
“Please be safe.”
There are few pilgrims coming to Yinyun Temple. In front of the temple stands a century-old banyan tree, with brocade bags hanging on its branches and the owner's name engraved on a small wooden sign swaying in the wind.
Jiang Man and Su Heng walked into the temple. Jiang Man knelt devoutly on the mat and prayed earnestly. Su Heng looked at her with a squint. He had always scoffed at things related to gods. Compared to praying for the protection of gods and Buddhas, he trusted his own strength more.
After completing the worship, Jiang Man also took out the wooden plaque and the brocade bag, and handed the brocade bag to Su Heng, "This is for you."
Su Heng looked at the red brocade bag in his hand and asked, "What is it for?"
Jiang Man smiled. "It's for blessing safety, or praying for a good marriage, or something like that. It's said to be very effective."
"Oh?" Hearing a joking tone in his words, Jiang Man coughed lightly and shifted his gaze. Seeing this, Su Heng raised the corner of his mouth, picked up a pen, and fluently wrote his and Jiang Man's name on the wooden sign.
Jiang Man took a sneak peek and admired from the bottom of his heart how beautifully the handwriting was.
The two stood under the banyan tree, and Su Heng hung the brocade bag on the branch.
Jiang Man suddenly said, "I used to think that Xuanxuan and I would be the only ones left for each other in this life. I never expected you to appear."
Su Heng stared at her, a smile flickering in his eyes, "You should be grateful for the arrangement of fate."
He put his arms around her waist, his tone filled with unquestionable dominance, "But the person who should be most grateful is me."
Because he was lucky enough to meet her.
Jiang Man vaguely remembered that the breeze that day was just right. When Su Heng kissed her, the wooden signs on the tree swayed gently in the wind, colliding with each other and making pleasant sounds.
"Wenwen, where have you been?" The European-style villa located halfway up the mountain is luxurious and elegant, exuding an endless atmosphere of nobility.
Sitting steadily in the hall, his young face revealed a calmness that was inconsistent with his age.
Seeing that he remained silent, Pu Qi did not continue to ask questions. He stood up and said, "Go to the ancestral hall and kneel down."
"I did nothing wrong, why should I kneel?" There was unyielding stubbornness in the childish voice.
"Why?" Pu Qi repeated his words, his eyes as sharp as a knife, making people feel cold, "Because you are stupid." He spoke each word clearly, without any emotion, as if this child had nothing to do with him.
Wenwen bit his lip and clenched his fists, "I know that in my father's eyes, I am just a chess piece to please grandfather." After saying that, he stood up obediently, walked towards the ancestral hall, and knelt in front of the ancestral tablet.
Pu Qi looked at his thin back, his deep eyes filled with complex and unfathomable emotions.
