Chapter Forty-Nine: Back

It's already late autumn and the weather is getting colder.

On this day, the weather was rare and good, and Yu Wu'er instructed Liu Mei to go to the housekeeper and ask the housekeeper to arrange a carriage, and she had something to do to go out of the house.

After that, he instructed Qingfeng to pack up her things, and she was going to stay in the mountains for a few days.

When Qingfeng cleaned everything up, as Yu Wu'er was about to go out, a pair of master servants who were almost forgotten by her were ushered in in front of her.

Gong Lingrui.

"The concubine has seen the lady, I don't know where the lady is going, maybe tell the concubine?"

Someone came to bow and curtsy her, gentle and pleasant.

Since her husband Jun was not around, her mood has not been very good, and she finally saw that the weather was sunny today and wanted to go out for a walk, and when she saw her, the smile on her face faded.

The two did not have any holidays, and there were no contradictions, but with a wife and a concubine, Yu Wu'er was naturally not in a good mood.

What's more, there shouldn't be any need to talk to her about where she's going.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Gong Lingrui's smile remained unchanged, as if she could guess what she was thinking, and explained: "Because after all, the concubine is in charge of the family house, and the lady should not ask when she goes out as a concubine, but if the Hou Ye asks at that time, the concubine is afraid that it will be difficult to answer." ”

"Recently, on my deceased mother's birthday, I went to the temple to pray for my mother."

Yu Wu'er's tone was light.

"Then I don't know, when will Madame be able to return? You see, it's not time now, this back and forth......"

Liu Mei came back as soon as she explained to the housekeeper, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw several people.

I just heard what Gong Lingrui had never finished speaking.

"The slave has seen Madame, Aunt Ling." After curtsiding, she got up and stood behind her wife, looked at Gong Lingrui and said, "Aunt Ling, when will my wife come back and have a claim, there is no need to worry about Aunt Ling's memory." ”

Hearing this, Gong Lingrui glanced at the sharp willow eyebrows, and her smile deepened, but she didn't speak.

Arguing with a minion lowers her status in vain.

Glancing at Qingliu behind him, Qingliu got a signal, stepped forward, and scolded loudly.

"No rules! The master is talking, what are you interjecting! ”

Before Liu Mei could refute this, Yu Wu'er frowned.

"Aunt Ling, because you are in charge of the housekeeper, do you want anyone including me or the Hou Ye or the prince to know about the trip?"

"Madame laughed at this, the concubine is just doing her duty, if the lady doesn't want to say it, the concubine won't ask, but if something goes wrong, she will ......"

Yu Wu'er didn't want to argue with her more, she didn't want to talk around the bush, and she didn't want to calculate anything, so she didn't hear her words so meaningfully, so she bypassed the pair of masters and servants with willow eyebrows and Qingfeng, and left.

When they left, Gong Lingrui slowly turned around, looked at the direction the three of them left, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and asked, "Qingliu, have you done what you were asked to do?" ”

"Back to the master, the man has agreed. Now, you can only act after the master speaks. ”

"That's good, you tell him that the time has come, let him take advantage of it."

"Yes."

……

In the carriage, Liu Mei looked at the face of her wife, racked her brains and comforted: "Madam, you don't have to care about her, it's just a concubine, it's not worth it, anyway, it's you who the prince likes......"

Yu Wu'er's eyes were faint and she looked at Liu Mei.

Suddenly, Liu Mei couldn't go on.

"I'm fine, husband...... Didn't write again? ”

Liu Mei shook his head.

"Madam, the prince has just entered the battlefield, there may be more things to arrange troops or something, don't be too anxious, maybe the prince will write a letter in a few days."

Yu Wu'er sighed in her heart, she also knew that he must have a lot of things, but she still remembered that he didn't say goodbye before and didn't let her send him off.

I have been unhappy for a while because I couldn't send him.

"Madam, are we going to the Immortal Courtyard?"

Liu Mei changed the topic, she thought that her wife would not be able to figure it out for a while, so she could only divert her wife's thoughts.

Yu Wu'er shook her head and said to her: "No, we can't go over the Immortal Courtyard alone, besides, it will be my mother's birthday in two days, so let's go to the hermit temple to pray for three days." ”

This is only part of the reason, and there is another reason, her husband went to the border to fight, and she heard that many people would die in the war, and the sword on the battlefield had no eyes, in case ......

Her husband didn't let her give it when he left, and the abbot had given her three talismans before, but she didn't have a chance to give them away.

knew that after the abbot gave her the amulet, she would give it directly to her husband......

Now, she can only hope that the Buddha will bless her husband.

Not only for her mother, but also for her husband.

The hermitage temple has many pilgrims every day, and most of them are wealthy families, so there are many side rooms for pilgrims to live in.

They lived in a wing room for the past three days.

This time, I wanted to meet with the abbot. The abbot of the hermitage temple is very famous in the capital, proficient in metaphysics, and has nine spirits out of ten for people.

is highly respected, but the abbot only divins with those who are destined, and others can't even see his face.

However, this time it was very unfortunate that the abbot's apprentice informed her that the abbot had gone out on a long trip again the day before yesterday, and the return date was uncertain.

Hearing this, she could only sigh that it was unfortunate.

She also wanted to ask the abbot to help her husband calculate the good luck.

Yu Wu'er knelt on the futon in the main hall, her eyes closed, her hands folded respectfully, and she sincerely recited the scriptures.

It took a long time for her to open her eyes.

The Buddha, the believer Jade Wu'er, is willing to empathize with my husband and share life and death. May the Buddha bless my husband with good luck on the battlefield, and if he is injured, the believer is willing to bear it with him.

She followed Liu Mei and walked out of the hall together.

I remembered that before, when her husband had not left, she once said that the maple leaves in autumn were very beautiful, but the fairy courtyard was not planted.

She suddenly wanted to see the red maple leaves now.

They were followed by a little novice, who was the abbot's apprentice.

"Little master, I remember, is there a large maple forest on the mountain behind the hermitage temple, I don't know if there is still one, maybe I am allowed to take a look."

"The donor is polite, the master has explained to the little monk before leaving, and he must treat the donor politely. The maple forest in the back mountain is still there, but the abbot does not allow others to go, but if the donor wants to go, he can naturally go. ”

Xiao Shami clasped his hands together, his voice was gentle, and he was not arrogant or impatient.

When Yu Wu'er heard this, her heart warmed. "Thank you, little master, but it's a pity that I can't thank the abbot in person."

"For monks, there is no need to talk about these false rites, in fact, as long as the donor's heart arrives, the master can feel it."

Yu Wu'er was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled.

"It's me who is obsessed."

The maple forest in the mountain behind the secluded temple, now in October, the maple leaves are the most beautiful time, and the red all over the mountain is beautiful and gorgeous, which is shocking.

It's not like Yu Wu'er hasn't been here before, but for some reason, she doesn't feel like she has ever felt so amazing.

She looked back at Liu Mei, only to see that she was already stunned, covering her lips and chuckling, but she dissipated the worries about her husband.

Xiao Shami followed behind the two with an indifferent face, not fascinated by the hue.

Yu Wu'er walked inside along the road stepped out by her predecessors, and she suddenly felt a sense of tranquility in her heart.

Suddenly, as she walked, she slammed her steps and looked closely at the back of the person in front of her.

What a familiar back-

Like her second sister.

She looked at the back for a long time, and by the time she reacted and wanted to go over to take a closer look, the figure was long gone.

She quickly turned around and asked the little novice.

"Little master, tell me, that person just now...... Who is she? ”

Yu Wu'er's voice was a little uncertain, but her heart was beating fast. It's been six years, and her second sister has disappeared for six years, and she thought she would never see each other again, but she suddenly saw a very similar back to her second sister here, how could she not be excited.

Little Novice didn't know and couldn't give her an answer.

"Little master, didn't you say that ordinary people in this maple forest can't come in, if she comes in normally, someone in your temple must know who it is. Little master, can you help me, can you help me ask who this person is? ”

"Amitabha, the donor pays attention to the body, the little monk will help the donor ask the senior brother in the temple, as the donor said, if this person comes in normally, he will definitely be able to ask, but if not, the little monk can't either."

Yu Wu'er nodded excitedly, as long as she could ask, it would be fine.

Second sister......

I don't know how the second sister is now, looking at the back of the person just now, she is dressed well, although the clothes and accessories are different from those worn by the people in the capital, but it can also be seen that she is very thin.

Much thinner than before the second sister.

If it's really the second sister, I'm afraid ......

Alas!

Originally, she planned to leave after only praying for three days in the hermitage temple, but because of the back of the second sister Xiao who was needed in the maple forest, she decided to wait a few more days.

At least she wants to know if that person is the second sister.

Tell Qingfeng to go down the mountain and return to the house first, and inform the house that she will return later.

As for Liu Mei, that day, she also saw that back, and she was also very shocked.

Although six years have passed, because of the personality of the fifth lady, Liu Mei is very impressed by her, so even if it is just a back, it has been six years, and she is very sure that that the background is the fifth lady.

She hesitated, but told her wife her guess.

"Liu Mei, what you said is true? That person is really my second sister! ”

Yu Wu'er couldn't calm down, and asked repeatedly.

Liu Mei nodded. "Madam, the fifth lady is tall and flamboyant, and she likes to wear bright clothes, especially red. The slave remembered that the man on that day was wearing bright red. ”

Hearing this, Yu Wu'er was a little annoyed, at that time, she should have run over directly, if it weren't for the fact that she couldn't be sure, she was afraid of admitting her mistake, maybe now she had recognized her second sister!
