Chapter 10: Homecoming
When they returned to the temple, someone came early the next morning to report that the old lady had a letter asking them to leave for their home early.
At this time, Wen was leaving the abbot's side, and the carriage of the general's mansion outside the temple was also fully equipped, until an elegant and beautiful figure slowly appeared, and the atmosphere around him changed suddenly, and it was a lot quieter.
Wen Shi looked over, and his face couldn't help but change.
"Madame, this, this is ......"
Mama Chen next to her pulled her sleeves, only to feel that she was not dazzled?
Is the graceful and graceful figure the third lady?
A warm gold silk lotus sleeve jacket, pleated pale white hanging tassel long skirt, illuminating the surrounding scenery is bright, that face is as pretty as a peach in three springs, pure as a chrysanthemum in nine autumns, gestures are elegant, how can there be a trace of the previous arrogant and disgusting posture, like a lady show!
"Amitabha. ”
The abbot smiled and nodded meaningfully in the direction of Xia Qianwei, and the girl opposite smiled, which made everyone around them shake their eyes and warm their hearts.
Xia Qianwei actually doesn't like this beautiful face that swaggers through the market, but she understands that she now has an extra weapon, a skin, which is the easiest thing to confuse people.
"Mother, Qianwei is late. ”
Xia Qianwei came to her politely, and Wen finally came back to her senses and pulled out a stiff smile.
"Qianwei, what are you...... What's the matter? Oh, this face is so plain, you are the most expensive daughter of our general's mansion!"
"The mother also thinks that this light makeup is difficult to see, but there is no way, the hands of the two cheap maids are not very convenient, and the daughter has to pounce on some powder at will......"
Xia Qianwei cooperated with Wen's, and immediately knew in her heart that the third lady's terrifying aesthetics were all "favored" by Wen's!
It's all so fragrant at will, so if you are careful...... This face made Wen almost think that the person was alive again, and the hand in her sleeve couldn't help but clench with hatred, she forced herself not to look at Xia Qianwei anymore, and her eyes fell on the two maids who followed slowly behind.
I saw that Ruhua lowered her head slightly, her hands hung unnaturally on the sides of her body, not to mention her eyebrows, she looked frightened, she was holding a strange stove, and the back of her hand exposed to the air made people gasp at a glance.
A pair of small hands trembled, the ten fingers were red, swollen and bruised as if they had been tortured, and there were many festering and open wounds, which were greasy and disgusting.
Everyone was amazed at how she was still alive, and now they immediately understood!
Sure enough, as they guessed, the third lady planned to make this traitorous thing worse than dead, and in the past two days, I am afraid that she has used strange methods to torture Rumei......!
"Qianwei is so kind, my mother is still afraid that you will be deceived by this cunning maid, but what has happened?"
"That mouth is full of lies, but it doesn't matter, my daughter has a way. ”
Xia Qianwei smiled, obviously such a beautiful jade face, under this vicious tone, it immediately made people have an indescribable sense of fear.
Wen's heart is a lot more relaxed, too, how can this girl say that she will change?
"Poor child, there is no clever girl around, and while it is still early, my mother will ask someone to make up for you. ”
I have to cover her face quickly, and when I go back to Beijing, I must not let others see her appearance! However, Xia Qianwei took a step back, rubbing her temples tiredly.
"Don't bother, I've been so angry with that that I can't sleep well these days, mother, I'll get into the carriage first and rest. She glanced back at Ru Mei, "Idiot, come in and serve!"
Everyone couldn't help but cast sympathetic glances at Rumei, and if their hands were injured like this, they had to stay by their side and be a cow and a horse, it was really better to die.
"Madam, the third lady looks so much like ......"
In the carriage, Mama Chen, who was waiting closely, opened her mouth with a little shock, but before she finished speaking, she felt a cold gaze fall on her.
Oh no, she forgot that she was never allowed to mention that person in front of her wife!
Wen's expression was indescribably terrifying, and he didn't see the usual pleasant appearance at all, and he didn't know how long it took to ease his expression.
"How about beauty, it's not ...... in the end" She looked at her white and pure hands, as if she remembered something happy, and couldn't help laughing, and her mood suddenly improved......
Lei Ruo Temple is not far from Kyoto, this road is safe and smooth, the next night Xia Qianwei and his party arrived at the general's mansion, in order not to disturb people and clean they went back to the courtyard.
Until dawn, Wen took Mama Chen to the old lady's Fushou Courtyard early.
"The daughter-in-law came to say hello to her mother, and her mother is in good health?"
I saw the graceful old woman on the seat wearing a brown longevity pattern jacket, snow-white hair meticulously hairpinned with Hetian jade and cuizhu, simple but noble, majestic face flushed with ruddy, a pleasant and pleasant mood.
She nodded slightly, her throat clear, "It's been hard for you all the way." ”
For some reason, Wen actually felt that today's old lady was different, and after a closer look, there were some more jade ornaments between her fingers and waist, perhaps because of this, she seemed to be a lot younger.
Could it be that Xia Qianwei's troublemaker was not around, and the old lady's ears were clean for a few days before she looked radiant? It's a pity that she has to block her heart for a while......
"What's so hard, I should have come to report to my mother after I arrived last night, I was afraid of disturbing my mother's dreams late at night, my daughter-in-law couldn't be filial piety by my side these days, and my mother had a good night's rest?"
Wen looked virtuous and gentle, the old lady seemed to be satisfied, and Mama Lei, who had followed the old lady for many years, replied with help.
"The old lady slept comfortably last night......"
"That's great. ”
Wen didn't understand the deep meaning, so he casually echoed the sentence, and a look signaled, and Mama Chen next to her immediately held something and handed it over.
Qianwei has been very well-behaved in these days in Lei Ruo Temple, this is the scripture she copied quietly, and asked her mother to look at it. ”
I didn't want to say that as soon as the words fell, the old lady's eyes flashed with surprise, "Qianwei copied it?"
Wen sat with low eyebrows, listening to the suspicious tone, the corners of his mouth hooked up imperceptibly, too, I'm afraid no one would expect Xia Qianwei to be so obedient, I'm afraid that the old lady wasn't ready to receive such a surprise at the beginning, right?
I saw that the old lady took the scriptures and looked at them a few times, although the handwriting on it was imitating Xia Qianwei, it could be clearly seen that the handwriting came from different people.
"Since it was copied by Qianwei, why didn't she bring it herself?"
After a long time, she put the scriptures aside, slowly picked up the tea and took a sip, her expression slightly serious.
Wen deliberately paused and smiled awkwardly, "That child has been wronged, and it is inevitable that he will have some resentment in his heart, but after all, she is your own granddaughter, how long can you hold a grudge......?
Wen looked like a calf protector, but what she meant was that Xia Qianwei hated the old lady for sending her to the temple, and refused to come to ask for peace, and even the copied scriptures had to be sent by others.
What's more, this scripture is Wen's heart, with the old lady's eyesight, she must be able to see the clues, it is a mistake not to repent properly according to the agreement, and she is so disrespectful to the elders, it is simply a crime!
And what about Wen's? She is still the good mother who tried her best to cover up Xia Qianwei's mistakes, and she will not fall into any tricks!
"Hmph. ”
Hearing only a cold snort, the old lady suddenly put the teacup on the table, Wen pretended to be frightened, but she was very proud in her heart, that girl was about to be unlucky!
