Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 201
Four days later, Yao Cunhui took Rongma, Xiaoli, and Qingmei beside Si Yiniang, and went to the Bodhi Temple in a carriage to pray for Yao Shizhe's longevity lock.

According to the rules, the Longevity Lock should be placed in front of the Bodhisattva for one night, so Yao Cunhui's master and servants had to stay in the Bodhi Temple for one night.

Master Yi Ning, the abbot of Bodhi Nunnery, had greeted Yao Mansion a few days ago, and tidied up two clean rooms and came out to prepare.Hearing that Yao's carriage had arrived that day, he led his disciples out to welcome Yao Cunhui and others in.

Bodhi Temple is used to doing this kind of thing, after a few polite greetings, Mrs. Yi Ning smiled and said "Don't worry!", since she arranged for familiar people to do it without mentioning it.

"The nunnery is clean, and the surrounding scenery is not bad, but there is nothing to enjoy in this season. Is the second lady resting in the nunnery or going out for a walk?"

"As you said, there is not much scenery to see at this time of year, so I'd better stay in the nunnery honestly! Go do your own work, and I'll wander around the nunnery at will."

Master Yi Ning smiled, leaving a little nun at the side and agreed to take care of her, before she bowed and left.

Rong Ma was resting in the house, Yao Cunhui, Xiaoli and Qingmei walked around the nunnery under the guidance of the little nun, and listened to the little nun's proud and proud stories about the proud things in the nunnery, a day passed quickly .

At dinner time, Mrs. Yi Ning came again, said some polite words such as "neglect" and "forgiveness", Yao Cunhui answered politely, and sent Mrs. Yi out.

After dinner, after dark, the nunnery became even more silent. Yao Cunhui, master and servant, talked for a while, then closed the door and turned off the lights, and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, a commotion was faintly heard outside, Yao Cunhui was awakened and sat up, Rong Ma also sat up, the master and servant listened attentively and looked at each other.

"There are thieves?" Yao Cunhui asked in surprise, "How come there are thieves in this small nunnery!"

"It seems to be coming this way, old slave, get up and take a look! Miss, please lie down!" Rong Ma's heart tightened, and she got out of bed with her clothes on.

Yao Cunhui shook his head, pulled the clothes off and put them on and said, "I'll get up and have a look too! Where can a thief be so bold!"

"Miss put on your clothes before getting out of bed, don't freeze!" Mother Rong knew her temper and didn't try to persuade her any more, she hurriedly brought her the thick jacket, and picked the big bean oil lamp, and the room It suddenly became much brighter.

"Second miss!"

"Second Miss! It seems that something happened outside!"

Just as Yao Cunhui and Rong Ma got dressed, Xiaoli and Qingmei, who were sleeping outside, also woke up with sleepy eyes, and the expressions on their faces were a little bewildered.

"Second Miss Yao! Second Miss Yao! Are you okay? Second Miss, please say something!" There was a knock on the door, with anxiety and anxiety in his tone.

Rong Ma was about to say yes, Yao Cunhui covered her mouth, glanced at Xiao Li and Qing Mei, and shook her head slightly.

Qingmei was startled, a little puzzled, Xiaoli tugged at Qingmei's sleeve, signaling to listen to what Second Miss said.Although Xiaoli didn't understand why Yao Cunhui didn't allow anyone to speak out, she knew that Miss Er must have her intentions.

"Why is there no sound!"

"Okay, the thief probably broke in!"

"What should I do! Second Miss Yao is a distinguished guest!"

"Master, maybe we just have to break in! Don't let anything happen to Second Miss Yao!"

Chattering outside.

"Mother Rong, go and open the door." Yao Cunhui frowned slightly.

Mama Rong nodded, strode forward and opened the door with a bang. The nuns who were about to kick the door were startled and exclaimed in unison.

"Here, teacher, what's the matter?" Mother Rong asked hastily.

Seeing Xiaoli and Qingmei supporting Yao Cunhui in the room, Mrs. Yi Ning breathed a sigh of relief and saluted with one hand: "Sorry for disturbing the second lady! As long as the second lady is fine, as long as there is nothing wrong! I caught a thief, and I disappeared when I chased it here, fortunately, I didn't surprise the second lady!"

"So that's how it is!" Rong Ma suddenly realized, and frowned, "Why would there be a thief? This, this—" Rong Ma turned her head and glanced at Yao Cunhui, feeling very uneasy.

"Mother, don't worry, the poor nun has arranged for two apprentices to stay as companions. It will be dawn soon, and nothing will happen! Alas, the nunnery has always been peaceful, but who knows that this thief is so bold! I feel really sorry for disturbing the second lady!" Yi Ning The teacher was also very confused and apologized repeatedly.

Yao Cunhui occasionally glanced at the window, and Qingmei and Xiaoli subconsciously followed suit.The next second, Qingmei screamed, pointed to the window sill and stammered: "Then, what is that!"

Everyone was taken aback, and rushed over together, seeing clearly that the things half protruding into the room and half out through the gap in the window did not change color!

It is an incense!The faint light smoke is curling up, and I take a deep breath, my forehead is slightly dizzy, this is a scent!
Everyone's faces changed.It seems that someone really wanted to hit Miss Yao Er!It's just a pity that the nuns came too fast, and the effect of Mixiang has not been exerted, and the four people in this room are still clear-headed.

Rong Ma's face was ashen, and she stared at Mrs. Yi Ning coldly.

"This, this—" Master Yi Ning's heart was as shocked as that of Rong's mother, her eyes widened and her lips trembled, she lost her voice and said, "How could this happen!"

"Could that thief be hiding in this room!" A young nun yelled with a pale face, her frightened eyes turned straight to look at the shadow of the bed cabinet curtain in the room.

Yao Cunhui raised his eyes and gave the nun a cold look, but said nothing.

"What does this little master say!" Mama Rong stared at her, her eyes almost burst into flames.

The thief is hiding in this house?If the thief is really found out from this house, Yao Cunhui's reputation will be ruined!
"Mingjing! Shut up!" Master Yi Ning's face darkened, and she gave the nun a cold look.

The nun was timid, lowered her eyes subconsciously, and suddenly summoned up her courage to say: "Master, I'm really worried about Miss Yao! It's better to search this house! Otherwise, let Miss Yao change to another room." !"

Inexplicably changing the house to live, even if there is nothing to do, people will say something is wrong!
Not waiting for Master Yi Ning to speak angrily, Yao Cunhui suddenly stopped and said: "What Master Mingjing said is good, I'd better search this house!"

"Second Miss!" Rong Ma glared at Mrs. Yi Ning angrily, thinking that this group of people are too ignorant of the rules!
"Mother Rong, you also go to help! Hurry up, it's still early before dawn, and I still want to sleep!" Yao Cunhui smiled lightly.

Seeing that Yao Cunhui's tone softened, Yi Ning knew that she didn't mean to say that out of anger, so she apologized a few words, Ming Jing had already led people to search around carefully.

"Master Mingjing, did you find anything?" Yao Cunhui looked at Mingjing with a half-smile, those clear eyes seemed to be able to read people's hearts.

Mingjing's heart was startled for no reason, a chill ran down his spine, and he hurriedly said with a smile: "No, no! Fortunately there is no! This room is obviously safe!"

"Second Miss, Second Miss, please move and go to the poor nun's room to rest!" Mrs. Yi Ning felt a little weird and quite uneasy.

"No need," Yao Cunhui smiled, and said with a soft smile: "There are Bodhisattvas watching over the holy land of Buddhism. This lady is upright and open-minded. What is there to be afraid of? The master still asks the masters to clean up the courtyards everywhere. Let’s do a search, in case there are really some dirty thieves staying in the house, which will ruin your nunnery’s reputation!”

Master Yi Ning was taken aback, smiled awkwardly, apologized repeatedly, left two aunts as companions, and left with others.She was worried, so she searched all over the nunnery.

"Miss, go to sleep, this old slave is just sitting here and watching!" Mama Rong was very angry, staring at the window with a cold face.

Mother Rong was secretly afraid, but fortunately she found out early, if the whole house was really fascinated by the thief with the incense, the consequences would be disastrous!It seems that there is a real thing about thieves in the nunnery.

Yao Cunhui persuaded her a few words, but Rong's mother resolutely refused, Yao Cunhui didn't mind, so she put her thick rabbit wool cloak on Rong's mother, and went to bed to rest.

Xiaoli, Qingmei and the two remaining aunts in the outer room didn't dare to sleep either, they sat on the kang and watched vigilantly all night.

Lying in the plain quilt, Yao Cunhui stared at the Suqing tent with clear eyes in a daze, and his palms tightened involuntarily.

According to some people's plan, what happened tonight should be like this: there was a thief in the nunnery, and when the thief led the nuns here, Yao Cunhui, master and servant, had been stunned by the incense, and everyone knocked on the door and heard the nuns inside. When there was no response and he broke in, what he should have seen was Yao Cunhui, who was in a coma, disheveled, and Ma Huaian, who was injured and passed out.

Then, Ma Huai’an would wake up slowly under everyone’s call and shake for help, and tell everyone what happened intermittently: He drove through the Bodhi Temple overnight, and came across the thief’s whereabouts sneakily, so he followed him and wanted to play by ear. He broke in impatiently, and started a fight with the culprit. The culprit rushed over when he heard the shouts of the crowd, knocked him out in a hurry and fled away...

As for why he didn't shout loudly after discovering the thief's trace?That's because he thought he could deal with the thieves, and he didn't want to disturb the purity of the nunnery!

Ma Shi and Ma Huai'an really spent a lot of money in order to be able to tie themselves to the thief ship!

What Ma Huaian and Ma Shi didn't expect was that someone betrayed them!Yao Cunhui had already informed Qian Shan secretly, so things will only go according to her plan.

Little master Mingjing, flashed in front of his eyes was that rather handsome face, those restless eyes that rolled around, Yao Cunhui smiled slightly: She is too impatient!Can't wait to jump out and propose to search the house!What is she trying to find out?Found a big living person?
This is also good, just to remove the suspicion of everyone, to prove that no outsider has ever been in this room from the beginning to the end.

Yao Cunhui closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully. Her eyes sank and she had a sweet dream. When she woke up, it was already daylight.
