Being scolded as a poor widow, I relied on supernatural powers to counterattack in ancient times

Chapter 678 It's All Fate
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted, "Just to remind you, my cousin's surname is Duan, and your surname is Ma. We are not related."

Accompanied by the quarrel here, Zhang Yishan glanced at the people around her, only to realize that Ma Juan was not here, and quickly got up and walked towards the corner gate.

The corner gate of the garden is connected to the small garden in the front yard, and a pomegranate tree is planted on both sides of the gate.

At this time, the trees full of flowers are really beautiful, but because they are too close to the front yard, those who don't want to cause trouble don't come here.

Zhang Yishan had been sitting and chatting with everyone under the vines, and just as she asked someone to go to the kitchen to bring some fruit tea, she suddenly heard a dispute beside the pomegranate tree.

As the host, it is her duty to take care of the guests.

When she walked over quickly, she found that the corner door had been opened. Ma Juan was standing under the pomegranate tree with red eyes, and her orange dress was surrounded by pomegranate flowers.

"what happened?"

The most annoying thing about holding a banquet at home is that the guests run around unruly.

Ma Juan had already had a problem, and she also helped to solve it.Thinking that she could finally settle down, she didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, it was her again who had problems.

Looking into her glowing red eyes, she seemed to be quite frightened, and there was a pomegranate flower on her hair.

Not far from her, stood Xie Yu and his juniors and several young men.

No need to ask, this is a collision.

Seeing Zhang Yishan approaching, Xie Yu opened the fan with a swish.

"Sister, your guest seems to have lost his way. Since you are here, take him away. We men are talking and chatting here, and a female relative suddenly appeared, and the little heart was thumping in fright."

As he said that, Xie Yu glanced at Ma Juan, and pulled Xiao Wu back two steps, as if he was afraid of getting involved with her.

Ma Juan looked at his defensive posture, especially the mockery in his eyes, and her face was red with blood. She is not a scourge, so is it necessary to be so defensive about her?

Besides, if a man and a woman meet suddenly, she is the one who suffers, okay?
Listening to Xie Yu's teasing, Zhang Yishan glanced at Ma Juan under the pomegranate tree, and walked in front of her, enduring the irritability in her heart.

"The girls are resting under the grape arbor. I have someone prepare fruit tea. Let's go there?"

Listening to Zhang Yishan's inquiry, Ma Juan tried hard to force back the tears,
"I saw the pomegranates blooming well here, so I wanted to come and have a look. I didn't expect to meet my cousin and the others."

Listening to her explanation, Zhang Yishan looked at the opened corner door, her eyes became colder.

"This corner gate connects to the garden in the front yard. My father is tired from studying and likes to take a walk here. Today, there is a banquet, and this corner gate is closed on purpose. Which woman left without authorization?"

When Ma Juan heard this, her body froze. Seeing so many people staring at her, she opened her mouth, but she didn't have the nerve to speak.

Did she want to say that she opened the door?
If it is known, her reputation will definitely be damaged.

Gingko looked at the girl and got angry. Just as she was about to turn around to look for the old lady who was guarding the gate, she saw the old lady running all the way, usually arranging her clothes while running.

"How did you guard the gate? How could you leave your post without authorization? Be careful, girl, hit you." Ginkgo gave her a look, and directly reprimanded her.

"Miss, forgive me. I don't know what's wrong with the old slave today. My stomach feels uncomfortable, so I went to squat in the latrine for a while."

The woman clutched her stomach, looked at the opened corner door, her face turned pale,
"When the old slave left, the door was closed and the bolt was hung."

Which deceitful thing removed the door bolt, causing her to be blamed by the girl?
Hearing the mother-in-law's terrified look, and looking at Ma Juan, who was blushing, Zhang Yishan still didn't understand.

The door bolt was inserted from the inside, and it must have been opened by Ma Juan herself.

Ma Ruren's niece really made her speechless.

Usually, my mother always said that she didn't learn the rules well, and she was like a tomboy.Even so, she never ran around in other people's houses and made trouble for others.This one is good, she looks like a little daughter-in-law's doormat, but she doesn't follow any rules.

"If you are not in good health, replace someone to guard the gate. If something goes wrong again, be careful that I will report to my mother and beat you."

"Yes, the old slave dare not."

"Girl Ma, shall we go and drink tea?"

Hearing Zhang Yishan's suggestion, Ma Juan gave her a grateful look. This person didn't point out her on the spot, so he saved her face.

Before she could speak, she heard footsteps, and then saw Zhang Yiren bringing the female relatives over.

"What's going on here?"

"I heard the chaos here from afar, is there a discord?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Bai Yunxi raised his eyebrows, looking like an old bridge.

Seeing the elders coming, the girls immediately behaved and got out of the way.

Zhang Yishan glanced at her mother, shook her head,

"It's okay. Everyone thinks these two pomegranate trees are beautiful, so they came here to have a look out of curiosity. I didn't expect the senior and the younger brother to be on the opposite side. It's a coincidence."

Listening to her daughter's explanation, Zhang Yiren nodded,
"These two pomegranate trees are indeed old, and they are also the most beautiful colors in summer...not because they can bear fruit in late autumn, but they are willing to bloom in the middle of summer. It is not surprising that children like such colors."

Bai Yunxi listened, and had to admire, listen, this is the elegance of a scholar.

No matter what the reason was, in a word, it was all due to the fact that the pomegranate flowers bloomed so well that they attracted people.

"Among the flowers, this one is Xishi, and the hibiscus and peony are all mothers. This is the pomegranate flower. Beautiful flowers are always attractive."

Someone agreed to answer, and everyone agreed, and the matter was over.

But at this moment, a gentle and surprised tone suddenly sounded.

"Brother Yu, I knew you were coming, so we set off together. You haven't been in the mansion for a few days, and you haven't sent a letter to your family. My mother didn't have a chance to ask you."

Ma Ruren looked at Xie Yu standing among the crowd, and spoke gently.

Xie Yu glanced at her, the corners of his mouth covered under the fan twitched mockingly, then put away the fan, nodded slightly,
"I have been staying in the other courtyard for a few days, and my father knows about it. Zhangyuan has a beloved apprentice. As a student, how can I not come to congratulate me?"

What Xie Yu meant was clear. It wasn't that he was ignorant, but that he had already told his father where he was going.

As he said that, Xie Yu glanced at Bai Yunxi, and saluted with both hands, "Aunt Bai, fifth younger brother apprenticed today, but I was delayed by something, I'm sorry."

Hearing Xie Yu's apologetic tone, Bai Yunxi waved his hands, "It's okay, just come here."

Maybe Ma Ruren was used to Xie Yu's attitude, or maybe he didn't care at all. Not only was he not angry, but he also looked at Baiyunxi curiously. The two of them looked familiar, and they probably hadn't known each other for a day or two.

"I didn't expect Mrs. Bai to be so familiar with our brother Yu. I'm really surprised."

Seeing Ma Ruren looking at him with a smile, Bai Yunxi smiled,
"It can only be said that everything is fate."
