Chapter 10: Overnight Departure

"Alas, Whelan, you!" Master Xie sighed heavily, and he acquiesced to the words of the eldest lady. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Oh, so sure enough, the eldest lady crippled the third lady? No wonder the eldest lady wants to be so good to the third lady, it turns out that she is ashamed and wants to compensate! After listening to the gossip, everyone made guesses in their hearts, and felt that all speculations were seamlessly connected with the existing facts, and their hearts were satisfied.

"Master, look..."Master Xie looked at the old man Yueqing again, and urgently hoped that he would give him a step down.

"It's a bit of a hassle." The old man Yue Qing couldn't hear any doubts, so he replied briefly.

It's a bit troublesome, that is, the hope is still quite big, Master Xie immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it, and then beckoned everyone to eat and drink, and the atmosphere in the main hall returned to harmony.

……

Xie Zhaolin came out of Master Xie's study and walked towards Huanxiu Courtyard, feeling a little complicated.

She glanced back at the study where the lights were still on, and there were two figures reflected on the window paper, jumping with the light and darkness of the lamp, jumping near and far.

Father and the head of Yueqing are still talking, I don't know how long they will talk?

Not long ago, the head of Yue Qing took her pulse in the study, pinched her right wrist again, and then her expression became a little solemn. He told his father that Xie Zhaolin's illness could still be saved, but it was indeed a little troublesome, and he needed to go to the Xuanyang Sect with him for long-term treatment.

Go to the Xuanyang faction? Isn't that just leaving home? For as long as Xie Zhaolin can remember, she has never been far away, and at most she can only wander around a few nearby streets. Because there are not enough maid rings around, even this ordinary shopping Mrs. Xie is not at ease. And at this point, Aunt Zhang rarely reached an agreement with the eldest lady, so later, she rarely even went out of the Xie Mansion.

Every time the second sister and the fourth sister went out to play with some young ladies from the family, she could only watch them go out from afar, and her heart was full of envy. But she herself knew that with her own appearance, going out would not only embarrass the Xie family, but also make people frightened. At that time, everyone is afraid that if she is accidentally injured or sick and burned, she will inevitably be isolated intentionally or unintentionally, so it is better to stay at home.

But now, when she learned that she could go out, and still go to a place as famous as the Xuanyang Sect, a surge of joy suddenly surged in her heart, making her forget the purpose of her trip.

That's the Xuanyang faction! There may be many people in the world who have traveled through the famous rivers and seas, but this Xuanyang faction is not something that can go if you want to, but she Xie Zhaolin actually decided to go this time!

"Zhaolin, in that case, you go back and talk to your aunt and pack your luggage, probably in the past few days." Master Xie said softly to Xie Zhaolin.

Xie Zhaolin suddenly came back to his senses, said goodbye, and closed the door.

It wasn't until the cold wind in the night hit her face, and after the happy mood cooled down a little, she realized that going to the Xuanyang Sect meant that she had to leave the home she had lived in since birth, everything she was familiar with, and the people who cared for and loved her.

Because the stakes are very high, when Xie Zhaolin was in the study, Master Xie did not let her only personal maid Hongqing wait outside. And when Xie Zhaolin stepped into the door, she found that Hongqing, who had already returned, was actually sorting out the clothes and some necessities she wore every day.

"Oh, Miss, you're back, my aunt asked me to help you pack your luggage, and then you can go directly." Hongqing took the initiative to explain.

After listening to Hongqing's words, Xie Zhaolin nodded and walked straight to the table and sat down, but she was secretly surprised in her heart, she hadn't come back yet, how could her aunt know? Could it be that her father told her? But looking at the scene in the study today, the head of Yueqing was obviously going to take him to the Xuanyang faction, which was obviously not expected by his father, how could his aunt know?

But after thinking about it, my aunt should be the person who knows her condition best besides the doctor who sees her, so it is not surprising that she already knows that her disease is not so easy to treat. Perhaps, this opportunity to invite the head of Yueqing to come to the house was also what she asked her father for!

In the end, it's still my own mother! Although she is usually picky, but at the critical moment, even if she doesn't say anything, her actions are all there!

Xie Zhaolin couldn't help but be immersed in the emotion created by her own conjecture, and secretly blamed herself for being ignorant in the past and not understanding her aunt's hard work, so that she didn't even react to Hongqing's call.

"Miss, it's time to wash, you're already going to bed at this time." Hongqing said while twisting the face towel.

Xie Zhaolin took the face towel handed over by Hongqing, wiped his face carefully, handed it back and washed it again, and wiped his hands again. After a while, Hongqing brought the foot-washing water again, took off her shoes and socks, and soaked her feet in the steaming water, Xie Zhaolin felt that today's fatigue was finally swept away.

But she still thinks she's pretty useless, so a guest came to eat two meals, and called her over to ask for a pulse, she actually felt tired, what should I do if I go to the Xuanyang faction after that!

"Knock" suddenly came a knock on the door, and the two people in the house were stunned, who would come so late? But after thinking about it, Hongqing still went up and opened the door, and after seeing the people standing outside the door, a trace of surprise appeared on her face, and then she bowed her head and saluted, and shouted softly: "Master."

Father! Xie Zhaolin, who was lifting the quilt and preparing to sit in, was taken aback, and also hurriedly came over to salute.

"Zhaolin, you..." Master Xie paused, it seemed difficult to speak, but he still continued: "There is something about the head of Yueqing temporarily, and he has to go, so you can go with it."

What does this mean, is it about to leave, let yourself go with it now?

"What, is it because the luggage hasn't been packed yet? Red Love!" Master Xie waved his hand to call someone.

"No, father, the luggage is already packed."

"Hmm. Zhaolin, you take this in case you need it. Master Xie took out a big bag from his arms and handed it to Xie Zhaolin.

Xie Zhaolin took it, stuffed it into the bottom of the package, and finally cleaned it up again, went out, walked to the door, and found that the head of Yueqing was already waiting there, so the group converged and walked wordlessly all the way.

However, Xie Zhaolin still felt that something was wrong, because the road they were walking now led to the back door, and as soon as she came out of Huanxiu Courtyard, her father wrapped her in a big black cloak, as if he was afraid of being seen by anyone.

Why can't you go through the gate and wrap yourself in a cloak, is it really afraid of being seen? Also, I was leaving, why didn't I see my aunt and second sister coming to send them off, seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the back door, the doubts in Xie Zhaolin's heart became stronger and stronger.

Waiting out the back door, there was already a carriage waiting, but there was no coachman, Master Xie asked Hongqing to hand the package to Xie Zhaolin and let her get into the car by herself.

Xie Zhaolin was suddenly a little stunned, and at this time, the old man of Yueqing, who was also wearing a cloak, came over to solve her puzzles: "Our Xuanyang Sect has no master and servant."

What does this mean, is this asking her to go to the Xuanyang Sect alone with a sick number?!
