Chapter 141: Pie in the Sky
It took one whole day to have Chen Rong’s Daoist name entered into the records
She had expected it to be a lively day but for some reason, even after all the dust had settled, Xishan Te to the west
Chen Rong stood on the es while feeling an inexplicable fogginess
She was unmistakably a priestess ordained by the e monastery No matter how hard she tried to listen, the only sounds she could hear were still her servants’ voices
It was as if her becoe of residency
Chen Rong wondered for a while and then couldn’t help laughing: But isn’t this better? I just want peace anyway
At this thought, she turned to go back
The s and at least a hundred and fifty roo chose the safest quarters in the east as her dwelling
She only brought ten people with her to Jiankang After leaving two to watch the house she had bought, only eight reht servants and herself totaled nine people As they listened to the birds and insects, and the growling of beasts behind the mountains where the sun had descended beyond the horizon, the nine of them indeed felt rather desolate in a temple complex that could house over a hundred people
Chen Rong spent the night listening to the apes and wolves

Half a month flew by
Xishan Te this tirounds So of leaves, the servants would turn to see a pair of green wolf eyes At these times, they would scream and shut the door
Furtherotten or if there was another reason, but nobody hadto the temple, or had anybody come to hand her the deeds
It was as if she and her servants were completely isolated from the outside world by an invisible force
It was noell into spring Young buds on the branches were beginning to open, dotting various shades of green across the landscape
After breakfast, Chen Rong slowly stepped out
She went to the bluestone steps in front of the tees in the distance, took a deep breath and lazily stretched her waist
“Miss” Nurse Ping was too used to this address to change her habits Chen Rong had reminded her several tie but she always soon forgot When no one was around, Chen Rong just let her be
Nurse Ping rushed over to Chen Rong and blurted when she saw her s low on firewood, rice, oil and salt”
After a pause, she softly added, “We’ve rewarded all of our ain?”
Chen Rong turned around to look at Nurse Ping
Nurse Ping frowned “I didn’t expect the te here! If you hadn’t brought so to eat and wear”
Chen Rong also frowned to hear this
At length, she softly asked, “Nurse, have you found the te records?”
“Aye, I have,” she replied, nodding her head all the while
“Go, let’s take a look”
“Aye”
Her look-through lasted all the way until noon Seeing Chen Rong throwing the old tattered silk books aside, her nurse asked, “Miss, what’s wrong?”
“What’s wrong?”
Chen Rong ss… and left me an empty shell”
“But what is there to worry about? We can feed ourselves after all”
