Chapter 163

On the grounds that property was stolen, Zheng San quickly found several idle gangs who had been entrenched near Tanzhe Temple for many years to help find Zuo Junjie.

Until the sun sets, it will be too late for Fu Tingyun and others to return to the city, and there is no news about Zuo Junjie.

Fu Tingyun was a little disappointed and ordered Zheng San: "In addition to the advance payment, we will pay them twenty taels of silver. We only said that although the beggar stole the things that were not worth it, they were given by my mother, which is very important to me. Please help me pay attention. If we can help us find the beggar, we will have another fifty taels of silver."

Zheng San left in response.

Yu Wei was unwilling to give up. But when she saw Fu Tingyun's bulging belly, she bit her lip and said, "Madam, why don't I stay and continue looking for..."

"No! It's too dangerous." Fu Tingyun immediately rejected without thinking, "Let's go back first and then make a decision after discussing with Master Jiu."

Although Yu Wei agreed, his expression was slightly dim.

Zheng San lifted the car curtain.

"Madam, thanks to you, you gave you an extra twenty taels of silver." He said happily, "The group of idle gangs told me that the beggars who stole things came to Tanzhe Temple from Tongzhou half a year ago and settled in a broken house not far from Tanzhe Temple. It was a territory called Lu Ah Shu. They went to say hello to Lu Ah Shu and asked him to hand over the people within three days... Let us just wait for their news at home with peace of mind."

"It turns out that there is a snake path, and a rat path." Fu Tingyun smiled happily, "You should keep an eye on this matter, be sure to find the beggar." She said, her expression gradually getting colder, "Spend where you should spend money. Don't worry, just put it in my hands to pay the silver."

Zheng Sanying "yes" and went to negotiate with the group of people for a while before he drove the carriage back to the city.

"Go to Sixi Hutong." Fu Tingyun ordered Zheng San.

Zheng San was slightly stunned, quickly turned his horse's head and headed towards Sixi Hutong.

In the carriage, Yu Wei looked at Fu Tingyun in surprise: "Madam, you want to..."

"I want to tell my father about Zuo Junjie's begging in Tanzhe Temple..." Fu Tingyun said, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

Then what?

Is the fifth master happy to help his wife find Zuo Junjie? Or will he shout loudly to scold his wife for causing trouble and upset a matter that had already calmed down again?

Yu Wei looked at Fu Tingyun quietly, waiting for her to continue talking, but saw Fu Tingyun pursing her lips tightly, then turned her face and looked out the car window.

That calm gaze and indifferent look... at this moment, it makes people feel strange.

Just like the tranquility before the storm, there is a kind of tension that is about to come and wind fill the building.

Yu Wei couldn't help but shivered.

For the first time, she suspected that if she was so relentless and determined to figure out what happened back then, would it hurt her wife?

In silence, they soon arrived at Sixi Hutong.

The food in each family is fragrant, and it is time to eat dinner.

When Mr. Fu Wu saw the servant come in and report that "Mrs. Zhao" has come, he pretended not to hear it, and handed the bowl to his daughter-in-law: "Add another bowl."

Grandma Fu came to her senses, said "Oh", and hurriedly took the bowl to serve the rice.

But Fu Tingyi glared at his wife fiercely and whispered: "I'm so panicked, what a moral character!"

Grandma Fu said with grievance, "It's not right for me" and handed the bowl with tears in her eyes to Master Fu Wu.

Mr. Fu Wu took the bowl, picked up a piece of chicken, and put it into his mouth with the rice. He chewed it slowly, showing a faint smile: "Well, this dish is also well made." He continued to eat with satisfaction.

My sister-in-law is still waiting outside!

Should I invite my sister-in-law in?

Grandma Fu was feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles.

The servant who came to report the news stood there either moving forward or retreat, and kept asking for help from Grandma Fu with her eyes.

Grandma Fu smiled bitterly.

Fu Tingyun's voice sounded in his ears: "Where are you having a meal?"

The hand of Master Fu Wu's chopsticks was holding paused in the air, and a sharp edge flashed in his eyes.

Fu Tingyi stood up in panic and shouted loudly: "What are you doing?" The chair behind him caught off guard and fell to the ground with a "clang", adding a little embarrassment to the loud shout that was already insignificant.

Grandma Fu was relieved and smiled kindly at Fu Tingyun. She quickly poured a cup of tea, but did not dare to call her "sister" and hummed twice in a vague way, saying "Please have tea."

With a "bang!", Master Fu Wu's chopsticks slapped heavily on the table, and the plates and bowls were shaking loudly.

Before Mr. Fu Wu could scold him, Fu Tingyun smiled and said, "It's a good job" to Grandma Fu, and took the teacup.

"Today I went to Tanzhe Temple to burn incense. Not only did I meet Mrs. Yu and her daughter-in-law," she looked at her father sitting on the head with a bright look, "but I also met Zuo Junjie!"

"What did you say?" Master Fu Wu looked at Fu Tingyun in horror, his face turned pale for a moment, and his lips couldn't stop shaking, "You, did you say you met Mrs. Yu and Zuo Junjie?"

"Not bad!" Fu Tingyun took two steps forward and stared at her father, "I not only met Mrs. Yu, but also met Zuo Junjie!"

A hint of horror flashed across Mr. Fu Wu's handsome face: "Will Mrs. Yu recognize you? What did you say?" His tone was filled with an urgent need to recognize him.

"I avoid Mrs. Yu." Fu Tingyun's eyes were as sharp as a raging one, staring straight at Mr. Fu Wu, "Mrs. Yu didn't see me." She found her father sighing long and his expression was relieved. "Zuo Junjie was begging near Tanzhe Temple. When he saw me, he ran away like a frightened rabbit. Yu Wei chased him for a long time but didn't catch him... Zhao Ling was on duty in the palace today, and I had no one to discuss. But if he dragged it down, I was afraid that Zuo Junjie would run away. I wanted to ask my father to help me catch Zuo Junjie, and some words happened to be made clear in front of the gong and drums."

"I understand." This time, Mr. Fu Wu did not show disdain or turn a blind eye, but said seriously, "I will deal with this matter. Don't worry about it anymore, so as not to cause trouble and cause many troubles. As for Mrs. Yu," he pondered, "If Mrs. Yu asks, you will say that Huayin was messy and separated from her family. Her family thought you were dead and revenge us, and we would die in the name of death..."

Yuwei listened and couldn't help but burst into tears.

The fifth master was finally willing to help his wife... When he caught Zuo Junjie, he knew that his wife was wronged, and the fifth master would definitely make things worse with his wife. At that time, they would be able to reunite with his family, and the wife would not have to be angry with the fifth master all day long...

The more she thought about it, the happier she became, and she couldn't help looking at Fu Tingyun.

But when I saw Fu Tingyun's face was as deep as water, there was no trace of joy!

She couldn't help but be surprised.

※※※※※

When I got home, Anxin was walking around the front yard.

Seeing Yuwei supporting Fu Tingyun in, he was refreshed and his face became a little brighter.

"Madam, at the beginning of You, Master Jiu sent someone back to ask if his wife had returned safely from Tanzhe Temple." An Xin stepped forward and saluted Fu Tingjun. "Seeing that his wife had not come back, he sent someone to ask every half an hour. There were four people in the future. If you don't come back, I have to go out of the city to find her." As he said, he heard someone shouting outside the door: "Brother An Xin, is Mrs. back?"

Anxin glanced at Fu Tingyun, responded and quickly turned back: "It was someone sent by Jiu Ye. I asked the wife if she had returned. I was relieved to know that the wife was back. If you were back, Jiu Ye was extremely anxious. If you don't come back, Jiu Ye would ask the unofficial master Mo who was not on duty today to find you. He also said that the people from the Imperial Heaven Supervision said that it would rain heavily in the past few days and the weather would get colder. Let the wife send Zheng San to check the doors at home. Remember to add clothes and don't catch a cold."

Fu Tingyun responded with a smile and entered the Hanghuamen with Yuwei.

At night, she couldn't sleep, so she called Pearl to light the light and tilted her to make a note on the kang.

Yu Wei knocked on the door when she saw the light.

"I'll talk to my wife!" She sat opposite Fu Tingyun in her small clothes.

The nights in mid-spring in Kyoto are still a little cool.

Fu Tingjun thought about it and ordered Zhenzhu to take Yuwei's quilt: "You go and rest, just have Yuwei accompany me here."

Pearl smiled and bent her knees and stepped back.

Yuwei asked Fu Tingyun: "Madam, haven't the master agreed to help us? Why are you unhappy?"

Fu Tingyun clamped the chess piece in his hand, and was silent for a while before whispering: "Have you ever discovered that when the master heard that we met Mrs. Yu and Zuo Junjie at the same time, in principle, whether for the reputation of the Fu family or to help me clear my grievances, the master should be concerned about Zuo Junjie. But the master is just the opposite. He immediately asked about Mrs. Yu and told me how to explain when he met Mrs. Yu again... Don't you think this is strange?"

She did not call Mr. Fu Wu the "father" like before, but called him "master", a junior who called the elder!

Yu Wei panicked and said, "The fifth master definitely didn't expect that we would meet Mrs. Yu. By accident, that's why..."

Fu Tingyun shook her head and interrupted her: "Mrs. Yu once sent someone to visit her mother, and we live in Kyoto together. The possibility of meeting each other is very high. Even if it is an accident, it should be an accident, why did we meet Zuo Junjie?"

The rain was silent.

Fu Tingyun said again: "The master actually asked me to say that it was because there were refugees in Huayin at that time and my family and I were separated. So my family gave me a funeral in the name of death. In this way, wouldn't it coincide with the rumors that have been circulating in Huayin City about me being robbed and lost my virginity by bandits? Where did this place Jiu Ye? Where did I place me? What face do I have to live in this world with confidence? Is this the love of my heart?"

"Madam..." The son did not speak of his father. Yu Wei looked at Fu Tingyun in fear.

Fu Tingyun suddenly smiled, her smile weak and pale: "Yuwei, I want to ask you, you have been urging me to make peace with the master these days. Is this your true words?"

Yuwei wanted to say the truth, but when she said that when she spoke, she looked at the sadness flashing in Fu Tingyun's eyes, she felt ache in her heart. But she couldn't say those words against her will.

"Don't persuade me again from now on." Fu Tingjun smiled, "Don't persuade myself anymore."

The rainy tears rolled down.
