Chapter 301: Chapter 301. Helping a Lonely Man

“You can’t worship me.”

Su Qing quickly reached out to support Yang Ruxue. She didn’t want to shorten her lifespan.

She had forgotten that she was now a woman disguised as a man. In this era, men and women shouldn’t touch each other. Yang Ruxue saw her reaching out to pull her and hurriedly retreated. Su Qing helped her up.

“Benefactor, you’re great!”

Xiao Chen stood beside his mother, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Su Qing. His childish voice was filled with admiration.

“Is that so? Our Xiao Chen is also great. He can even protect his mother. He’s a little man.”

Seeing her brother, a warm smile appeared on Su Qing’s tense face. She bent down and picked up the chubby Xiao Chen. She kissed his chubby little face. The milky fragrance assailed her nose. The sweet smell was too pleasant.

Su Qing couldn’t help but rub her nose against her brother’s chin and neck. Xiao Chen was so ticklish that he shrunk his neck and giggled. His big black eyes were sparkling with laughter.

The demonic claws almost killed those nuns. They were filled with grief and anger, feeling that they had lost their innocence and had no face to live in the world. Their robes were torn apart, revealing a large area of snow-white spring.

Their eyes were filled with despair. They clutched their clothes tightly and used their tattered monk robes to cover their bodies. They staggered and picked up the steel knives on the ground, ready to end their lives.

Su Qing glanced at the nuns’ movements from the corner of her eye. She went over and kicked the knife away. She ordered with a cold face,

“Don’t die.”

The nuns were frightened when they saw her being so fierce. Because Su Qing was dressed as a man, they all tightly protected their exposed skin. Their trembling and helpless appearance was pitiful.

Su Qing’s heart softened, and she comforted her stiffly,

“The people who hurt you all are dead; no one will know what happened today.

I am a woman, and you have not lost anything.”

“Are you a woman?”

Hearing that Su Qing was a woman, a nun asked in surprise. The nuns who were protecting themselves looked at Su Qing in disbelief.

She had killed so ruthlessly just now, but it was a woman?

“Yes, so you don’t have to die.”

Su Qing nodded to make them believe, she used her female voice.

“Xi’er?”

Yang Ruxue’s body trembled when she heard Su Qing’s voice. Although she had only met Su Qing once before they parted ways, as a mother, her daughter’s voice was firmly engraved in her heart. She tried to call out Su Qing’s name, her eyes filled with tears.

When Su Qing saw her mother like this, she felt like her throat was choked. Her nose was sore, eyes were swollen, and her eyes were misty. She said to her mother guiltily,

“Mother, it’s me. I’m late and have made Mother suffer.”

“Mother’s good daughter.”

After confirming that Su Qing was Xi’er, Yang Ruxue cried and hugged Su Qing tightly in her arms, refusing to let go.

“Sister?”

Xiao Chen tilted his head in confusion. His big, clear eyes looked at Su Qing curiously. How did she become an elder sister? Wasn’t this his brother?

“Xiao Chen is awesome.”

Su Qing couldn’t help but kiss her younger brother again when she saw how cute he was. His voice was filled with joy.

The nun saw Su Qing as a woman and the biological daughter of the Su family’s second Madam. She advised the poor nuns not to commit suicide and brought them over to thank Su Qing.

“Thank you for saving us, Ms. Su.”

“You’re welcome, Abbess.”

Su Qing stopped them and said lightly,

“Hurry up and go into the house to change your clothes!” novε/lb-1n

Yang Ruxue refused to let go of her daughter, afraid that her daughter would fly away again. She insisted on pulling her into her guest room.

Su Qing had to follow her mother into the guest room. The furnishings in the room were simple. As soon as she entered, she saw a long sandalwood table and two wooden chairs. On the left was a large bed made of wood. The room was lit with sandalwood. Although it was simple, it was exquisite.

“Big cat, I’ll give you something good to eat.”

Xiao Chen was attracted by the chubby Xiao Qi and carried it into the house. Xiao Qi was carried into the house like a pet by the little master.

Su Qing looked up and saw Xiao Qi looking at her pitifully. Her pleading eyes amused Su Qing.

“Big brother, can you give me your...?

Xiao Chen was still young and knew that anyone wearing men’s clothes was a man, so even though Su Qing had called herself sister, he still stubbornly called her brother.

Xiao Qi widened her eyes in fear. Her eyes were already big, and when she was frightened, her eyes were like two bright lanterns. It was apparent how frightened she was.

“These few days are fine. Sister will let Xiao Qi protect you.”

Su Qing looked at Xiao Qi’s terrified look and smiled at her brother.

“Yay!”

Xiao Chen jumped up and down happily, smiling as beautifully as a flower.

Xiao Qi pouted and looked at her master pitifully, like an abandoned child.

“When we reach Mo City, you must return Xiao Qi to me.”

Su Qing deliberately didn’t look at Xiao Qi. She smiled and pinched her little brother’s little nose, pinky promise.

Xiao Chen agreed happily. He was easily satisfied and would be happy for a few days. He promised Su Qing in a sweet voice,

“Alright.”

“Mother, pack up, and I’ll take you and Xiao Chen away.”

Su Qing was smiling at her younger brother, but when she turned around to talk to her mother, the smile on her face hadn’t disappeared.

“Mother is here to pray for you and Xiao Chen. 1 have to stay for 49 days.”

Yang Ruxue wished she could spend every minute and second with her daughter, but her husband said that the two children’s consecutive loss was due to the severity of the evil creature. She had to go to the monastery to eat vegetarian food and recite the Ksitigarbha Sutra and the Diamond Sutra daily to eliminate the evil creature.

As long as it concerned the two children, Yang Ruxue didn’t dare to be careless. She didn’t dare to delay her morning and evening graces. These few days, she stayed in the nunnery and chanted Buddha diligently.

“You can recite scriptures when you go back.”

Su Qing tried to persuade her, but Yang Ruxue stubbornly refused to leave.

“I only chanted for ten days, and Bodhisattva sent you back to me. I can’t go back on my promise to Bodhisattva, or else disaster will befall you and Xiao Chen.”

Su Qing didn’t know how to persuade her. If she forcefully took her mother away today, she would blame herself for not chanting the 49-day scripture if there was a small matter in the future. The ancients were most afraid of ghosts and gods.

The Wan family’s army was here for Xiao Chen and the children. Mother should not be in danger, but who knew if something like today would happen again?

There were many bandits in troubled times. During peaceful times, they did not dare to do evil to monks, but now, in this chaotic world, they had no scruples and could do anything.

If she left her mother in the nunnery, she would be in a difficult situation if the bandits had accomplices.

“Mother, you also saw it. You and the nuns would have been killed if I hadn’t come in time today. Aren’t you afraid?”

Su Qing used bandits to persuade Yang Ruxue. Yang Ruxue looked at her lovingly and shook her head with a smile.

“Mother believes in Bodhisattva. Evil people will be punished. Stay here with Mother. You can leave after thirty-nine days.”

Su Qing’s face darkened. She had to stay in the nunnery for more than a month? What right did a person like her, filled with killing intent, have to worship Buddha?

Yang Ruxue was determined to keep her daughter, so she held her hand tightly and refused to let go.

She didn’t save her, and she was trapped in a nunnery?
