One hundred and twentieth nine chapters, the fierce nun
The nunnery is not very close. I traveled in the morning and arrived two hours later. When I arrived in front of the nunnery and looked at the place in front of me, Yu Xijiao was silent for a while. In such a place, I didn't see anyone when I entered it, and now I have reached the end.
Look, it can't even be said to be a nunnery. It looks like an extremely simple family temple.
The front of the nunnery was deserted, the nunnery door was closed tightly, and the bluestone at the door had deep moss marks.
Qingyue stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a long time, she heard footsteps coming from inside. Then the door of the nunnery opened, and a middle-aged nun appeared in front of the door. She looked a bit stout and incompatible with the nunnery.
Walking to the door, she looked Qingyue up and down, and then looked at the carriage behind Qingyue. The nun's eyes widened: "Who are you? What's the matter with us?"
"We are from the Xuanping Hou Mansion, and we are here to pick up the eldest girl in our house." Qingyue said as Yu Xijiao said.
"It turns out it's from the Marquis's residence, please come quickly." The originally dissatisfied nun seemed to have changed her face. She smiled broadly and stepped aside to make way for her.
"No need, just let our eldest girl clean up and come out." Qingyue said, the nunnery is so big, she took a special look when she got off the carriage, and saw that there was a small courtyard, except for the door.
The name of the nunnery is written on it, but the rest of the place is just a dilapidated courtyard.
"Is there a letter from Mrs. Xuanpinghou?" The nun did not rush in, but stretched out her hand to Qingyue.
"Madam didn't ask us to bring a letter." Qingyue said.
"What about the tokens? There are always tokens, right?" The nun swung her body sideways, completely blocking the road. She picked up her eyes, looked at Qingyue a few more times, and looked at Qingyue up and down again.
"What token?" Qingyue said disapprovingly, "Madam asked us to pick up the eldest girl. The Marquis was also there at that time. Was our eldest girl locked up? We need a token when we go out? If you don't believe it, you can let the eldest girl come out and have a look.
, if we are not from the Xuanping Hou Mansion, we can ask the eldest girl to go back."
"What does Marquis Xuanping mean?" The nun understood and frowned.
"Can't we, the Marquis, be interesting? It's not us, the Marquis, who makes the decision in the mansion? Your nunnery is really bold. You actually held our eldest daughter captive and refused to let us return to the mansion." Qingyue was angry, and her face immediately darkened.
He stood down, raised his chin, looked at the nun in front of him, and snorted coldly.
Before the nun could reply, Qingyue took a step back: "Okay, very good. I will go to the Yamen now to report the case, saying that your nunnery is imprisoning the legitimate daughter of the Hou family."
After saying that, he turned around to leave.
The nun panicked and hurriedly stretched out her hand to grab Qingyue. Her voice immediately softened: "Wait a minute, girl, wait a minute. If you have something to say, talk to her."
"What else can you say? We can't even see the eldest girl's face. We eldest girls came to you to worship our relatives in peace, not to be watched over by you. Now that things have become like this, we eldest girls can't even see you.
I can't even see you, could it be that you murdered our eldest girl?"
Qingyue struggled to break away from the nun's hand, put her hands on her hips and said loudly.
"We don't have any. We are just a good nunnery. How...how could we seek wealth and murder? Miss Yu doesn't have much money. I...how could we..." The nun's face was troubled by Qingyue's call.
Dabai shook his hands in panic and didn't dare to stop him anymore. He turned around and said, "Just wait, I'll ask Miss Yu to come out now." After saying that, he turned around and ran inside.
Yu Xijiao helped Nanny Xu get out of the carriage. This time she came with a large number of people. Just in case something happened, the carriage driver specially picked the one that Yu Ruiwen usually used.
There are many carriages in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and there are also several carriage drivers. There is a carriage driver who always drives carriages for Yu Ruiwen. Yu Xijiao specifically asked Yu Ruiwen for it yesterday. She is also familiar with the surrounding environment. She even went there before.
I gave something to Yu Zhuqing in the nunnery, but I didn't go in to see Yu Zhuqing at that time.
Yu Xijiao borrowed the coachman from Yu Ruiwen for this reason. The coachman she used before was borrowed from her grandmother's house, and Yu Xijiao never returned it.
Compared with other coachmen, Yu Xijiao guessed that this coachman was different and might be Yu Ruiwen's confidant.
The coachman stopped the carriage and followed Yu Xijiao into the nunnery. After entering the door, he found that the inside of the nunnery also looked very dilapidated. The middle of the nunnery was considered a Buddhist temple, with a faint smell of incense, but other than that, there was nothing else.
There are side rooms on the left and right, and now there are voices coming from the room in the far corner.
Yu Xijiao looked up and saw a woman coming out of that place. She was dressed in plain white clothes with mourning hanging on them. Yu Zhuqing's face in the dream appeared exactly in front of her eyes. Compared with the last time she saw Yu Zhuqing in her previous life,
In fact, it has been a year, and there have been some changes.
She looked very haggard, and she was dressed in rough clothes, but it was different from what she had seen in her dream. If she hadn't recognized this face, she would have thought she was just an ordinary maid.
"Big...big girl?" Nanny Xu was stunned for a moment and looked back at the coachman.
The carriage driver was also stunned for a moment. He naturally knew Yu Zhuqing, but the Yu Zhuqing in front of him was completely different from the one in his memory. When did the big girl dress like this? Even the slightly more respectable maids in the house looked like this.
At most, she is just a rough maid.
Yu Zhuqing walked over, and a maid hurriedly chased her out from behind. This must be Yu Zhuqing's personal maid. The two masters and servants looked like a pair of maids. There was no trace of the magnanimity of the daughter of Xuanping Houfu.
.
"You... who are you?" Yu Zhuqing's eyes fell on Yu Xijiao. It was obvious that Yu Xijiao was the master, but she didn't know him.
If he had ever seen such a delicate face, Yu Zhuqing would definitely know it.
"I have seen the eldest lady." Yu Xijiao gave way, and the coachman hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"Are you...from my father?" Yu Zhuqing recognized it immediately.
"Yes, the servant belongs to the Marquis. The third girl has returned home and wants to come over to see the eldest girl. The Marquis asked the servant to bring the third girl here." The carriage driver said respectfully.
"Sister." Yu Xijiao bowed sideways.
"Third...Third sister?" Yu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately became excited after realizing it. He stepped forward and grabbed Yu Xijiao, looking at Yu Xijiao in disbelief, "You are the third sister, are you really
Is it...the third sister?"
"Sister, I am Yu Xijiao." Yu Xijiao stood up and looked at the gentle woman in front of her with soft eyes. In her last life, she knew that Yu Zhuqing was gentle and gentle, but had a timid temperament.
But just like this, Yu Zhuqing was desperate in the dream...
"Third sister...really third sister." Yu Zhuqing's tears suddenly fell down, she was so excited.
"This slave has met the eldest girl."
"Old slave, I have met the eldest lady." Qingyue and Nanny Xu stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"Slave... I've met... I've met the third girl." A timid voice sounded from one side, and Yu Xijiao looked at Yu Zhuqing's maid Caiyun. This was Yu Zhuqing's eldest maid, but she was too timid, so in front of her
The difference between a first-class maid and a first-class maid is not as magnanimous as a first-class maid.
In her last life, she had privately reminded Yu Zhuqing to find a capable maid, but Yu Zhuqing said that this maid was good, she had grown up with her, and she was loyal to her. Although she was a little timid, it was nothing.
Blunder.
It must be a matter of the Xuanping Hou Mansion. As the legitimate daughter of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, Yu Lanxuan couldn't say anything more. Seeing that Yu Zhuqing didn't listen, that was all.
"Since when did the Marquis of Xuanping have a third girl? Could it be that she came from somewhere and pretended to be? Ours is a serious nunnery, used for worshiping the rich daughter of aristocratic families. Not just anyone can come in." A very discordant one said.
Xie's voice came from one side.
Yu Xijiao turned around and saw two nuns. The one behind them was the one who blocked the door just now. The other nun looked a bit thinner. She was in her forties and compared to
The nun just now was much taller, so she stood in front, and she looked like the leader.
He came over and looked Yu Xijiao up and down, with a bit of disdain in his eyes: "The poor nun has only heard about the eldest girl and the second girl in the Xuanping Hou Mansion, but he doesn't know about the third girl. I'd better invite this girl back. If you let me
Mrs. Xuanpinghou knows that no girl can do it."
"How presumptuous! These are our three girls, why don't you come over to see us?" Aunt Xu stepped forward, stopped in front of Yu Xijiao, and scolded her sternly.
Yu Zhuqing moved her feet uneasily, but Yu Xijiao held her back and nodded to her calmly. Yu Zhuqing pursed her lips and finally obeyed Yu Xijiao's wishes without saying a word.
"The third girl in the house? Where did she come from? Does Mrs. Hou admit it?" The nun who came later was obviously the owner of this nunnery. She was much more courageous than the nun just now, and she stared at Yu Xi with dark eyes.
Jiao.
"The identity of our third girl cannot be denied by Mrs. Hou if she wants to." Aunt Xu snorted coldly and said without giving in, "We are here today to take our eldest girl back. Look at you.
Is this really a nunnery? We girls have many places to go if we want to worship, so why should we suffer in a place like yours? It’s not like we have to guard you if we make a mistake."
"Without Madam Hou's token, Miss Yu can't take her away." The nun was not timid, she sneered and stretched out her hand to pull Yu Zhuqing.
Yu Xijiao took Yu Zhuqing to take a step back. Qingyue stepped forward and slapped the nun's hand away, "Who are you? How dare you attack our girl?"
"No matter who the poor nun is, no one can take Miss Yu away today." The female nun sneered again and again. Another female nun actually rushed out of the side room with a hammer in her hand. The other female nun turned around.
After searching for it, I took a wooden stick nearby. Looking at the situation, I knew that something was wrong.
"Just leave well. If you are still here chattering, don't blame the poor nuns and others for being unkind. Do the third and fourth girls really think that they are the masters of the Hou Mansion?"
The nun was very courageous. As far as she knew, the only daughter Mrs. Xuanpinghou gave birth to was Miss Yu. The rest were either born to others or concubines. How could she have the courage to go against Mrs. Xuanpinghou!
