Ming Jing's face was extremely ugly, and his tone was particularly unkind.
She has always been a gentle and kind person, and even when she is rude to others, she is polite and follows one argument after another. It is rare that she gets so angry.
Xie Yixiao's heart skipped a beat and he walked forward quickly.
"Xue Yuan, do you really not remember me? I am your grandmother! Where has your truth gone over the years? Grandma has been looking for you for many years..."
"Are you suffering outside? Go home with your grandmother."
"I've already told you, I'm not your granddaughter!" Ming Jing was very angry, "The old man's eyesight is not good, he should take a good look at the doctor, instead of just casually recognizing his granddaughter when he sees one on the street."
"Mirror."
When Ming Jing saw Xie Yixiao and the others coming, he quickly walked over and hid behind Ming Xin, blocking the other party's eager gaze. Seeing this, Ming Xin moved a step to block her more tightly.
"This old lady." Xie Yixiao looked over and saw that this person looked familiar. One of the people who had listened to the scriptures in the temple before was this person, and she seemed to have seen her when she first came to Yunzhong Temple.
The other party also asked her which girl she was from. She didn't recognize the old lady and just vaguely said her surname was Xie, but the old lady seemed to have poor eyesight.
The maid next to the old lady stretched out her hand to support her, and she stood firm before turning her head to look over.
At this time, there were scattered pilgrims and monks passing by in the square in front of the main hall. The two sides stood there in a stalemate for a while. The old lady narrowed her eyes again and again, as if she had just recognized her.
"I remember you, thank you girl."
Xie Yixiao smiled: "I wonder if my Ming Jing has offended you, Madam. If she is disrespectful in any way, I will just go back and teach her well. Why should Old Madam embarrass her?"
The old lady paused, seeming to be much calmer now. She squinted her eyes and scanned around several people, and finally landed on Mr. Zhou: "Mrs. Changning Hou."
Mrs. Zhou was stunned, but she didn't expect that the other party knew about her, so she asked: "I wonder which family this lady is from? I'm sorry for my poor eyesight, I couldn't recognize you."
The old lady said: "It's normal if you don't recognize him. My husband's family name is Lu, and it belongs to the Duke of Lu."
Zhou was shocked, and Xie Yixiao's eyelids twitched.
Duke Lu's Mansion?
She has also seen Mrs. Lu Guogong. She is in her early forties and this one is probably fifty. Since she said she is from Duke Lu's mansion, then there is only... the old Duke of Lu who has not been seen for a long time.
Madam.
The one I married later.
Xie Yixiao thought about seeing the name of Duke Lu Guofu in the donation booklet, and remembered that he had seen her here in March last year. Could it be that she had always been in Yunzhong Temple?
Mrs. Zhou was busy saluting: "Greetings to the old lady."
Xie Yixiao also saluted: "So it's you, sir, and I was rude."
Mrs. Lu squinted her eyes and glanced at her again, as if to remember her appearance more clearly: "This time you can tell me which girl you are from, and what is the relationship between Xueyuan and you?"
Xie Yi smiled and said: "To return to the old lady, my late father is Xie Qingshan of the Xie family, and I am the thirteenth of the Xie family of the Xie family in the Imperial City."
"Xianfu" means "dead father", which means that the father is no longer alive.
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she understood who she was: "The daughter of Xie Qingshan? It turns out to be you, you have grown so big." After saying that, she paused again, "In that case, you might as well find a place to sit.
Come down and have a chat.”
Xie Yixiao glanced at Ming Jing and saw that her expression was still bad and she seemed unwilling to stay any longer, so he said: "Thank you, old lady, for inviting me, but I have something to do today, so I won't bother you. I don't know which courtyard the old lady lives in.
I will visit you another day, junior."
Mrs. Lu was a little reluctant and let her granddaughter go after finally meeting her. However, when she saw that Ming Jing seemed unwilling to see her, she finally sighed and gave up.
"That's fine. I'll live in the innermost part of the guest garden. Just knock on the door when you get there."
Xie Yi smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Mrs. Lu nodded, and then asked Mr. Zhou: "Would you like to go back with me?"
Zhou nodded, followed, and left with Mrs. Lu.
Seeing them leaving, Xie Yixiao and others breathed a sigh of relief. Xie Yixiao glanced at the mirror and didn't ask any more questions: "Let's go back to Master Huiyuan. I and Master Jiu will have dinner with Master Huiyuan later."
, you can also go to the dining hall to eat when the time comes."
After a pause, she added: "Mingjing won't be leaving. Mingxin will bring her a copy."
"yes."
When the group of people returned to the courtyard where Master Huiyuan lived, the chess game between the master and the apprentice was not over yet. The black and white chess pieces were scattered on the chess game. Xie Yixiao looked at it with his eyebrows furrowed for a long time, not knowing what move to make.
She sat aside and watched for a while, feeling that there were pits everywhere and that she could not go anywhere. She felt that her IQ was being crushed, so she pressed her sleeves and looked away.
Stop watching.
Rong Ci asked her: "Would you like to try it?"
Xie Yixiao shook his head vigorously: "Don't dare, don't dare, please be kind to Lord Ninth and please let me go."
If she wants to play chess, she should go to Mrs. Rong Guogong. Playing with them is simply asking for abuse.
Rong Ci couldn't help but laugh: "When I look at you and my mother, I quite like them."
Xie Yi smiled and said: "That's different. Although the Duke's wife and I are not as good at chess as you and Master Huiyuan, we are equally matched, so it would be interesting to play."
Master Huiyuan smiled: "Yes, this game of chess is naturally interesting when the players are evenly matched."
They are evenly matched, can compete with each other in a battle of wits and courage, win or lose, this is what chess friends are.
If one side is strong and the other is weak, the stronger one feels that this game of chess only involves teaching, which is not challenging and does not even require brain use. Moreover, one has to think about whether it is better to win or to give in.
The weaker side is defeated. No matter how hard it jumps, it will be suppressed. Even if there are thousands of tricks, it will still be suppressed and unable to stand up. It is meaningless even if the opponent gives way. But this way of winning is meaningless.
.
Rong Ci shook his head and saw Xie Yixiao sitting aside drinking tea, and then continued to play chess.
The two of them had a meal with Master Huiyuan before leaving.
The courtyard where Rong Ci used to live has been given to others since he returned home from secular life. Now that he comes back, he also wants to live in the guest garden.
Their yards are connected side by side. There is a peach blossom in Xie Yixiao's yard, and there is an osmanthus in Rong Ci's yard. The yard of Yunzhong Temple is well built, and there is basically one planted in each yard.
When the season comes, you can also enjoy the flowers of the tree.
After everyone had washed up, they sat on the table in the bright hall and began to examine the mirror.
Xie Yixiao pinched her white ball fan and fanned it slowly. Qingluo folded her hands in front of her chest and looked over, as if she was waiting for you to say something. She rubbed her hands together Mingxin, curious.
Incredible.
Ming Jing looked at these three people and suddenly felt dizzy.
