Yueyao woke up and knew it was raining outside.

When I opened the window, I saw a light rain. The small raindrops are like startled morning dew, falling and jumping again. The rain falls on the face, soft and quiet.

Yue Yao finished punching and walked out of the house after breakfast. Yue Yao saw a small cool puddle in the yard, and there were a few fallen flowers floating on it.

Gu You held an oil-paper umbrella with a cyan bamboo handle to shield Yueyao from the rain.

Yueyao walked out of the courtyard, stood on the steps and suddenly stopped walking. Yueyao also pushed away Gu You's umbrella and stood in the rain and sniffed the rain.

Gu You has long been accustomed to Yueyao being stunned from time to time, but she can't help but lament in her heart, the girl's infatuation has come again.

Yue Yao looked at the trees next to her, as well as the white walls of the tall tiled houses around her, and Yue Yao suddenly remembered the days in Jiangnan, the rain in Jiangnan, one by one, like a line.

Gu You put the umbrella on top of Yueyao's head and spoke; "Girl, let's go, there are still people waiting in the Buddha hall." Standing in the rain like this, I will definitely get cold today.

Yueyao came back to her senses and said with a smile, "Let's go!" ”

In the evening, Yue Yao painted all six Buddha statues, "Master, if there is nothing wrong with these paintings, I am ready to go down the mountain tomorrow." ”

The abbot master smiled and said, "The female benefactor's painting Lao Na is very satisfied. "He is worthy of being a disciple of Mr. Yushan! No, it should be said that it is worthy of being a person who is destined for the Buddha, and ordinary people can't draw the charm of the Buddha statue at all, but the little girl in front of him did it.

Yueyao returned to the courtyard and had breakfast, and then asked Hao's mother and a few people to pack up the things, and the things sent from the mountain, except for the particularly valuable medicinal materials, Yueyao would give them to the temple for food.

At night, there was a knock on the door outside, the monks' work and rest time of Zhaohua Temple was fixed, and everyone had fallen asleep at this point, and the mountain was quiet, and suddenly there was this loud voice, even Yueyao, who was practicing calligraphy, heard it.

Yueyao was a little strange, she came to the door this big night, there must be something big, "Gu You, go see what's going on?" ”

After a while, Gu You came back and said, "Girl, Young Master Tingzheng is here, and he is in the courtyard now." "Other men will definitely not be put in the hospital, but Keting is an exception.

Yue Yao chuckled, "Let her in!" If she hadn't guessed wrong, Tingzheng should have heard the rumors outside and was worried about her, so he hurried to Zhaohua Temple to find her.

Ting Zheng took three steps into two steps, hurriedly entered the study, and when he saw Yue Yao with a smile on his face, the anxiety along the way disappeared at once, "Sister." ”

Yue Yao looked at wearing an ink-colored robe, the ink-colored clothes were actually more skin-friendly, and Yue Yao didn't know why Tingzheng was wearing such clothes, "I've grown taller and stronger, it's good." According to An Zhichen, Tingzheng's ability to pass the martial arts examination is firstly Tingzheng's talent for hard work, and the other part is also due to the training in the Xiaoqi camp.

Ting Zheng said unhappily: "Sister, you have lost a lot of weight. Yueyao rushed for nearly two months, and she was not used to the meals along the way, so she lost a lot of weight, and in the past few days when she came back, Yueyao deliberately did not take supplements, nor did she eat medicinal food, and the amount of meals three times a day was also controlled within a certain range.

Yue Yao said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll make up for it when I go down the mountain, and I won't be able to raise it back in three months." "The matter of her disappearance has been hidden from Ting Zheng from the beginning, and now there is no need to tell Ting Zheng, telling Ting Zheng is useless except for making him bear a psychological burden.

Ting Zheng's eyes lit up, "Sister, are you going down the mountain?" "He only has two days off a month, and it takes two days to go back and forth to Zhaohua Temple, and it is difficult to see each other.

Yue Yao nodded, "Last year, my sister suddenly fell unconscious, the master said that I was evil qi into the body, and now it is better, naturally I am going down the mountain, it just so happens that my sister will go down the mountain tomorrow, you can accompany me down the mountain!" "To the outside world, she will definitely be bitten to death She is in Zhaohua Temple, anyway, those people guessed that she was not in Zhaohua Temple at most based on some clues, but there was absolutely no evidence to find, as long as An Zhichen didn't care, this matter was not to be feared at all.

Ting's face was a little anxious, "Sister, let's not live in the Begonia Garden, let's go to Yuhua Hutong!" ”

Yue Yao shook her head with a smile and said: "It's okay anymore, my sister has been chanting and chanting Buddha with the master on the mountain for half a year, and she has no time to pay attention to mundane things, so that your sister missed the martial arts examination, Tingzheng won't blame my sister!" ”

Ting Zheng smiled, "How can you blame my sister, and this is just a small test, just wait for my sister to be here next time." ’

Yue Yao smiled, "Okay, I'll wait for Ting Zheng to take the Jinshi exam." ”

Ting Zheng hesitated for a moment, but in the end he still told Yue Yao about Ma Yue's suicide because of an outer room, "Sister, uncle has aged a lot because of the suicide of the second cousin, and the eldest cousin was originally going to come back, but before the eldest cousin came back, the eldest cousin suddenly fainted, and woke up again after being in a coma for three days and three nights. "Suddenly I fell unconscious, and I woke up suddenly, without any warning, which was very strange.

Yue Yao's eyes widened, "What's going on?" "It's fake that she is unconscious, but Yueyao believes that Ma Peng's unconscious is absolutely true, but this is too weird.

Ting Zheng said with palpitations: "I think the eldest cousin must be the same as my sister, they are all evil spirits into the body, the eldest cousin has no hindrance after waking up, and he works as usual, but there is a little strange, the eldest cousin does not let the cousin come back." "Because of Ma Peng's matter, Ting Zheng didn't have the slightest doubt about Yueyao's evil qi entering his body, but Ma Peng's sudden fainting was kept secret from the outside world.

Ma Peng is different from Yue Yao, Yue Yao is just the daughter of a deep boudoir, and she can go up the mountain to cultivate if she is unconscious, but Ma Peng is an official of the imperial court, if someone has a heart to catch this matter and use it, it is not very appropriate, so I don't know much about this matter.

Yue Yao's brows furrowed tightly.

At this moment, Drizzle entered the study and interrupted the conversation between the two people, "Girl, young master, the noodles are cooked and ready to use." "No need to instruct, Hao's mother went to cook noodles when she saw Tingzheng coming.

Because the time was in a hurry, Hao's mother cooked noodles, cooked a bowl of white fungus noodles, put two big poached eggs in it, and fried a plate of sour beans and fried shredded radish and beans.

Yueyao also took a bowl of chopsticks to accompany Tingzheng to eat, and Yueyao ate a small bowl of noodles and a poached egg, which can be regarded as a supper.

Ting Zheng ate happily, and in the blink of an eye, the dishes on the table were empty, "Sister, it's still the best thing you have here." "Tingzheng also occasionally goes to the restaurant with friends, and he has eaten a lot of delicious dishes, but the things here are delicious.

Yue Yao looked at Tingzheng's good appetite, and her mood was naturally good, "I'll let my mother make it for you when you come back in the future." Yue Yao actually knew that Ting Zheng said that the food she had here was delicious because she was at ease here.

After eating and drinking, Yue Yao was still a little strange about Ma Peng's sudden coma, because this kind of thing was really hard to talk about, "Tingzheng, how did you clean up the house in Yuhua Hutong?" "When she gets married, she doesn't want Tingzheng to live in Mafu anymore, even if her uncle is good to their sisters and brothers, but Mafu is not her own home in the end, and there will always be uneasiness if it is not her own home.

Ting Zheng said with some embarrassment: "Sister, I've been busy for the past six months, and I don't have time to repair the house. ”

Yueyao talked about the house in order to change the topic, "It's not in a hurry." "Anyway, An Zhichen is a single family, and he lived in Anfu before Ting Zheng said goodbye, and no one would say anything.

Yue Yao talked to Ting Zheng for a long time, and only after Hao's mother urged the two to sleep, Ting Zheng went out of the courtyard to the side room prepared for him in the temple.

Yue Yao said to herself: "This is really a strange thing, how can you be in a coma for a few days, is the eldest cousin really evil?" "There is no solution to this matter, and Yueyao does not force it.

The next day, Yue Yao led everyone down the mountain, and when the carriage stopped halfway, a person came in from outside.

Yue Yao looked at the person who came and exclaimed in surprise, "Xiang Wei." Yue Yao also planned to go back to the capital, and then go to see Xiang Wei when the affairs of the capital were dealt with, but she didn't expect Xiang Wei to appear by herself.

Xiang Wei smiled and got into Yueyao's carriage, "The girl went back to Mafu, how could she be without me." Seeing Yueyao's worried look, Xiang Wei smiled and said, "Don't worry, girl, my injuries have healed, it's okay." ”

Yueyao looked at Xiang Wei, and saw that Xiang Wei's complexion was not bad, and she was a little relieved, "Xiang Wei, I'm sorry, I'm going to hurt you." "You have been blaming yourself in your heart since you knew that Xiang Wei was seriously injured, if it weren't for her, Xiang Wei would not have been seriously injured, Xiang Wei had internal injuries, and this time she added old injuries, she was really worried.

Xiang Wei's face sank, and she said unhappily: "What the girl said is digging my heart, the girl has long told me that the madman will not die, it is my arrogance that the madman does not have such courage, otherwise I will invite a few more masters to put it in the yard There will be no such thing." ”

Yue Yao smiled bitterly, "Who knows?" Not to mention that Xiang Wei didn't expect it, even she didn't expect it, she also thought that Zhou Shu would definitely be outside even if he wanted to do it, and because of this, she invited so many guards, but who would have imagined that he would dare to rob people in the inner courtyard, which is really not something ordinary people dare to do.

Xiang Wei waved his hand and said, "So, don't say anything sorry, it's enough for the girl not to blame me for not being able to protect well, girl, you don't have to worry, Zhou Shu escaped from the sea, and he will definitely not dare to come back within ten years." "As for ten years from now, it goes without saying what will happen ten years from now.

Xiang Wei thought so, but after this incident, she didn't dare to take it lightly, and Xiang Wei believed that An Zhichen didn't dare to take it lightly.

Seeing this, Yue Yao didn't say anything about it, "Xiang Wei, did you start Ma Yue's death?" She heard that Ma Yue had committed suicide, and guessed that it should be Xiang Wei who did it.

Xiang Wei didn't deny it, nodded and said, "He should die." "If it weren't for Ma Yue colluding with outsiders and letting these people get to Begonia Garden smoothly, otherwise these people would definitely be shocked when they broke into the backyard, as long as they were prepared, the girl wouldn't have to suffer this way.

Yue Yao didn't say that Xiang Wei was wrong, what Ma Yue did was really damned, but she just asked her uncle to send a black-haired person, and Yue Yao still felt a little guilty in her heart.

Xiang Wei guessed what she was thinking when she saw Yueyao's face, "Girl, although Master Ma is sad, he has not been defeated by these things, do you know why?" ”

Yue Yao nodded, "I know." "The reason why my uncle didn't collapse is because he still has a big cousin, Ma Yue is not steaming, but the big cousin is very competitive.

A chuckle appeared at the corner of Xiang Wei's mouth and said, "It's good that the girl knows." Girl, I don't actually do it. Master Ma will also do it, and Master Ma will definitely not be able to fold the entire Ma Mansion into it because of Ma Yue alone, so the girl does not need to feel guilty. Ma Chengteng also wanted Ma Yue to die in his heart, but the tiger poison did not eat children, he couldn't do it, and it happened that Ma Yue committed suicide, so he would push the boat down the river, otherwise, Ma Chengteng only needed to check a little and find out that Ma Yue was not a suicide, but he killed.

Yue Yao thought of Ma Chengteng's letter to her, and she didn't blame her at all, and Yue Yao felt a little comforted in her heart.

The chief housekeeper of the Ma Mansion got the news yesterday and knew that Yueyao would come back today, so he instructed the maid-in-law to clean up the Begonia Garden last night.

In the evening, a small servant shouted at Ma Yuan: "The big housekeeper and the young master have entered the city, and they will be there soon." ”

Ma Yuan nodded and said, "It's good to come back." "It's been half a year, and I'm finally back, and the girl is back, and those people don't dare to chew their tongues anymore.

The chief housekeeper looked at Ting Zheng, who was riding a jujube horse in front of him, and was a little surprised, "The young master personally went to pick up the girl and went back to the house." "Back then, everyone said that this young master was rotten wood and could not be carved. But who would have imagined that in the past ten years, people have already been martial artists, and looking at this momentum, they will definitely be able to pass the martial arts examination, and with the support of the Marquis of Jingning and Uncle An, the future is also very good. ”

The big housekeeper has been in Mafu for a lifetime, and the ancestor of Mafu is also a military general, so not only does he not look down on him, but he is also very proud, if it is a scholarly family, then it is not this attitude, and because of this reason, the people of the Lian family have a lot of ridicule, but unfortunately Lian Dongfang can't manage the Yueyao sisters and brothers, and those ridicules can only be endured.

Ting Zheng said with a smile: "My sister has finally finished her cultivation, and I happened to have a holiday, so I went to the mountains yesterday." "My sister is back, and those people don't dare to slander my sister anymore.

Yueyao returned to Begonia Garden, looking at the grass and trees in Begonia Garden, she sighed a little in her heart, she didn't expect to come back, but she didn't expect that she would come back after going around and around.

Before Yueyao sat down, she heard Ruocui come in and report: "Girl, the second lady is here." "Although it is said that the second master has passed away, the second lady is still the wife in charge.

Xiang Wei said with a stern face: "Girl, I entered the house." "Xiang Wei's biggest regret now is that she shouldn't have told Tang about Yueyao's disappearance at that time, but the injury was too serious at the time, and she didn't know if she could resist it, and now that Ma Yue is dead, who knows if Tang will use this incident as a bargaining chip to threaten the girl to do something that the girl is not willing to do.

A touch of coldness slipped across the corners of Xiang Wei's mouth, if Tang really had this guts, she wouldn't mind a little more blood on her hands.

Yue Yao greeted her and bowed to the Tang family, "Second sister-in-law." ”

Because Tang is guarding filial piety, he wears a white Confucian skirt, and the jewelry he wears is also silver

Tang was very surprised to see Yueyao's appearance, she was taken away, it shouldn't be haggard, or it looks like a withered tree, but the person in front of her, in addition to being thinner, has a very good complexion, if it weren't for Xiang Wei telling her that Yue Yao was missing that day, she suspected that someone was playing a prank.

Yueyao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, please sit in the house." ”

Yueyao is fine, but his husband gave his life for this, and she has to be widowed for the rest of her life, where is she still in the mood to talk to Yueyao, Tang shook his head and said, "No need, I still have something to deal with." Yueyao, if you lack anything here, let the steward buy it directly. ”

Tang instructed Yue Yao a few words, and then left Begonia Garden.
