Noble Lady Jing Zhao

"Mom, my second brother's marriage is the most important thing for my mother right now. Don't worry about other things."

Ye Jingzhao didn't want his mother to get involved in the muddy water in the fourth room.

Since the fourth aunt Xue said that it was Aunt Qiu who killed her late husband's brother-in-law.

Is such an aunt who shows off her weakness all the time really weak?

After hearing what her daughter said, the third lady Xie quickly got out of the regret she just felt.

"I don't know where your Aunt Lin is now." The third lady, Mrs. Xie, looked out the window.

It has been a while since Mrs. Lin set out.

At present, there is no news from the Lin family.

But counting the days, it’s time to arrive in one or two days.

"It's so fast, mother, the betrothal gift prepared for the second brother is now ready."

The third lady, Mrs. Xie, nodded slightly.

Master Lin and his family are naturally aware of Sanfang's family fortune.

She had picked out everything she could get her hands on.

The old lady has decided on a date, and every room in the uncle's house is preparing to burn incense.

Because the gentlemen in the mansion also want to go together.

Therefore, Mrs. Liang prepared a carriage for each room.

The masters of each house and their concubines and young ladies all went together, but the aunts of each house naturally had to stay in the mansion.

Because they were going to the temple to offer incense, everyone was dressed especially neatly and neatly.

The old lady specially chose Zhaohua Temple, which was less crowded.

The journey is quite far, and the carriage is equipped with refreshments and other food.

Zhaohua Temple has not hosted a wealthy family for a long time.

The abbot came to greet him personally, and ordered people to clean a few rooms and come out to give everyone in the uncle's house a rest.

The old lady took everyone in the uncle's house to worship in front of the Buddha statue in Zhaohua Temple one by one.

The eldest lady, Mrs. Liang, and the second lady, Mrs. Jiang, supported the old lady on the left and the right to rest in the incense room that had been vacated at the back.

"It's rare for you to go out, so you can all go and have a look."

The old lady spoke, and the young lady from the uncle's house stepped forward, saluted, and thanked the old lady.

They came out in twos and threes.

It was difficult for the ladies to leave, so they all stayed in front of the old lady to serve her.

Ye Chong naturally took on the responsibility of the head of the family, paving the way for his younger brothers and sisters.

Ye Jingyun walked in front alone.

Ye Jingmiao followed Ye Jingzhao.
Ye Hao, who lived in the fifth room, was originally kept by his mother with his grandmother, but he wanted to go out to play with his brothers and sisters, but Ding couldn't resist, and the old lady spoke.

So I had to tell my son not to be too naughty.

The small Ye Hao held the hand of his fourth sister Ye Jingzhao with a bright smile.

Ye Jingzhao didn't feel disgusted with Ye Hao in his heart, so he allowed him to lead him.

Ye Laner followed at the end with a timid look on her face.

Ye Yun didn't go out today because when she got up early, Qiu Hong suddenly felt unwell.

Because Ye Jingzhao had already been to Zhaohua Temple, he could not help but feel hurt, and thought of Xue Miaoyue, who had not heard any news yet.

Naturally, I no longer wanted to hang out.

Ye Chong took his younger brothers and sisters to wander around.

Ye Jingzhao found a pavilion to sit leisurely.

After sitting for a while, I felt bored again, so I simply stood up and said to the maid behind me, "Let's go outside for a walk. It's very boring in the temple."

Hong Zao followed in front, while Xiang Yuan and Xiang Luo were two steps behind, following behind Fourth Miss and Sister Hong Zao.

After leaving Zhaohua Temple, you can see the official road at a glance.

No one could be seen around.

It's really desolate.

Ye Jingzhao walked aimlessly around Zhaohua Temple.

The dead branches all over the mountain are depressed and decadent, and occasionally you can see some sporadic green plants, which are plants that remain green all year round.

As they walked, Ye Jingzhao walked from the official road to the mountains.

Hong Zao followed behind, not forgetting to persuade, "Fourth Miss, let's go along the official road. In this mountain, if any poisonous snakes and beasts suddenly rush out, what should we do?" "In this season, there are many snakes and insects. They are all hibernating, so I just wander around here and don’t go deep into the mountains, where I can bump into some ferocious beasts.”

As Ye Jingzhao spoke, he walked back to the official road.

I just don't want the maids behind me to worry.

After walking only two steps, the dead grass in front suddenly started to tremble slightly.

The three maids immediately tensed up. Hong Zao reacted quickly and immediately stepped forward to protect the fourth lady behind her.

"Don't be afraid, Miss Fourth. I will protect Miss Fourth."

Hong Zao spoke in a heavy tone, with a look of death on his face.

Ye Jingzhao looked at the haystack half as tall as a man in front of him.

It's as wide as a large water tank.

And the haystacks were obviously piled up with care.

She glanced around and motioned to Xiangyuan to get a dead branch as tall as one person.

"Push away that pile of hay."

Ye Jingzhao ordered calmly.

Xiangyuan was brave, but she was still stunned for a while, came to her senses, held her breath and concentrated, and cautiously approached the haystack step by step.

When he found the right distance, he suddenly waved the dead branch in his hand.

In an instant, half of the haystack was lifted open.

I saw that the haystack was mostly empty.

There was a woman in ragged clothes and unkempt hair, huddled in a haystack.

Even though there was such a loud noise outside, the woman did not open her eyes and get up to take a look.

He just hugged his knees tightly and shivered.

"Go and see."

Ye Jingzhao hurriedly spoke out and ordered the maid to come forward and check.

When the three maids saw a woman in the haystack, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hongzao Tongxiangyuan stepped forward to check on the woman's condition.

Xiangluo was closely guarding the Fourth Miss.

"Miss Fourth, this girl has a high fever and has passed out."

Hong Zao inspected it carefully, then walked to Miss Fourth and reported back.

Ye Jingzhao frowned slightly. If he didn't rescue her, this woman would probably be buried here.

After thinking about it, she finally ordered, "Xiang Yuan, you and Xiang Luo will quietly place this girl into Zhaohua Temple."

As she spoke, she looked at Hongzao again and motioned for her to get some money.

Hongzao understood and took out ten taels of silver from his wallet.

She only had a little over ten taels of silver in her purse, no matter how much she had, she would be gone.

Xiangyuan took the money from Sister Hongzao and looked at Miss Fourth.

"I will take the red dates back to Zhaohua Temple first. The two of you will go in through the back door of the temple with others. I will take care of things first."

After the explanation was completed, Ye Jingzhao quickly returned to Zhaohua Temple with the red dates.

She did not tell anyone about this matter.

He went straight to find the abbot of Zhaohua Temple, and made the explanation, and repeatedly warned him not to publicize the matter.

The abbot agreed and ordered people to go and respond.

Next to the back door of Zhaohua Temple, a fragrant room was set aside for the girl to stay temporarily.

It will take a lot of effort to find a doctor now.

Fortunately, the abbot knew a little bit about medicine, so he took the girl's pulse and ordered someone to boil some soup to dispel the cold.

The old lady sent someone to urge her, and it was time to return home.

Ye Jingzhao quietly left Xiangyuan here to take care of the woman.

After getting on the carriage, the third lady Xie glanced around and found that one of the maids beside her daughter was missing.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the carriage.

So he pulled his daughter to him and said, "Zhaozhao, where's Xiangyuan?"
