As for whether Aunt An meant what she said or what she meant, it didn't matter to Xie Jingya. What mattered was what Mrs. Xie and Xie Anbang would think.

"My aunt is also a philanthropic person and doesn't want to cause trouble. But I can't bear to see what happened, so I have to report it!" Xie Jingya said without hesitation.

Aunt An gave a few words of advice, but seeing that it was useless, she stopped talking.

After chatting for a few words, Xie Jingya said goodbye and left Aunt An's yard.

As soon as Xie Jingya left, the maid next to Aunt An said to Aunt An: "Auntie, do you think Miss Fifth will really go to the old lady to talk about this matter?"

Aunt An touched her belly and laughed softly, "The temper of the fifth lady in the house has always been to do whatever she wants to do, and no one can stop her."

The maid grinned and said softly: "It would be a good thing if Fifth Miss really told the old lady, otherwise how could it be unbearable for Second Miss to cough like this day and night."

"Help me go back to the house and lie down for a while!" Aunt An stretched out her hand, and the maid hurriedly helped her up.

Now Aunt An just wants to give birth to this child safely, so that she can have someone to rely on in the Xie Mansion for the rest of her life. As long as she can give birth to this child safely, she is willing to be more cruel.

After Xie Jingya came out of Aunt An's courtyard, she led Banxia to Mrs. Xie's courtyard. When she passed by the Chaoshou veranda, she met the third lady Xie Jingyan, whom she had not greeted for a long time.

Today she was wearing a purple embroidered jacket, a white pleated skirt of the same color, and a lake blue vest, which made her look calmer and more stable.

"What a coincidence today, I met my fifth sister here!" Xie Jingyan approached her with a sweet smile, still looking affectionate.

Xie Jingya didn't lose her face and responded, but she didn't have a good expression, just a cold face.

"Where are you going, sister?" Xie Jingyan asked affectionately.

Xie Jingya responded calmly: "I'm going to my grandmother's yard."

When Xie Jingyan heard this, she said happily: "I am also going to my grandmother's yard. Since we are on the way, we sisters should go together!"

After saying that, Xie Jingyan habitually reached for Xie Jingya's arm. As soon as she stepped forward, Xie Jingya instinctively took two steps back and said with some displeasure: "Then let's go!"

Xie Jingyan retracted her outstretched hand in embarrassment.

Xie Jingyan chatted without anything to say, "I heard someone say that the fifth sister's riding skills recently are very impressive. I want to show the third sister some time!"

Xie Jingya laughed evilly and said, "As long as the third sister is not afraid of being thrown off the horse, the fifth sister is very willing to take the third sister on a horseback ride!"

"I heard that the fifth sister is good at riding, and the third sister believes in you!" Xie Jingyan smiled reluctantly, but she couldn't take back what she just said.

"Since the third sister is so confident, I will take you for a ride someday!" She didn't believe it. Xie Jingyan really dared to get on her horse. If she had the guts, she would definitely let her know what it means to fall miserably.

"Okay!" She agreed with a smile, and then asked: "I heard that there will be a horse race in the capital this year, and I don't know how lively it will be. When the time comes, my sisters asked my grandmother to go and see it together."

Xie Jingyan talked a lot and finally got to what she wanted to say. She looked at Xie Jingya's expression with a hint of joy. She knew that Xie Jingya also wanted to watch the horse racing. If she asked her grandmother, she would definitely succeed.

"Third sister, how did you know that there was a horse race in the capital this year?" Xie Jingya became curious. It stands to reason that Xie Jingyan has never left the yard now, and Aunt Su would not let Xie Jingyan know about this kind of horse racing, so how could she know?

Are you so aware of things outside?

Xie Jingyan was a little flustered and clutched the handkerchief tightly.

"The other day, I asked the maid to go out and buy me some needlework. She said she heard it outside, so she told me. I thought that the fifth sister really likes horse riding, and she must also like to watch horse racing, right?

"Xie Jingyan blinked her big, watery eyes and looked forward to her answer with a smile.

"If there is really a horse race, you don't need to tell me, I will definitely go and take a look." Xie Jingya's answer did not disappoint her.

With Xie Jingya leading the way, she no longer had anything to worry about. Thinking of the one-month appointment, her heart began to flutter uncontrollably.

Xie Jingya paid attention to her expression and noticed her subtle change. She didn't say anything, just pretended not to see it and continued walking forward.

After a while, the two of them arrived at Mrs. Xie's yard. Seeing the two young ladies outside, the mother-in-law hurriedly went up to greet her and said with a smile: "The old lady is discussing things with an important guest at the moment. I'm afraid we can't."

Meet the two ladies."

"What distinguished guest?" Xie Jingya asked calmly.

The old woman was a little hesitant when she spoke, "This... this old woman is not easy to talk about."

"Why are you so hesitant? I'll tell my grandmother that you are a mistress." Xie Jingya is very good at playing arrogant and domineering people.

Seeing that Miss Fifth's face was not good-looking, she hesitated and said, "Today noon, there was a Taoist priest who kept wandering outside the house. After the steward asked the reason, the Taoist priest said that the house was too violent recently.

It must be resolved quickly.”

"Do you believe this?" Xie Jingya said she didn't quite believe it.

"The steward reported this matter to the old lady. When the old lady heard about it, she met the Taoist priest. Now they are chatting." The woman replied respectfully.

Xie Jingya then asked: "How long has it been since the Taoist priest came in?"

The woman thought for a while and replied: "It's a quarter of an hour."

"Fifth sister, since grandma is receiving distinguished guests, let's visit grandma again after some time!" Xie Jingyan said busyly.

Xie Jingya snorted coldly, "If you want to leave, just leave. I'd rather go meet this Taoist priest for a while and ask him to help me do the calculations!"

As soon as her voice fell, Grandma Wu walked out of the main hall, saluted the two ladies, and then said with a smile: "Old lady, please come in."

The two of them got the order from Aunt Wu and followed her into the main hall.

The so-called Taoist priest was wearing a blue robe, with a ceremonial crown of the same color on his head, and holding a Buddha dust in his right hand. Xie Jingya looked from the direction he walked in and took a quick glance, only to see him with a beard and a smile on his face.

His expression looked very calm. If he said that he was an accomplished Taoist priest, it would be somewhat credible.

The Taoist priest saw the two of them coming in and muttered something slightly, but they didn't hear what the Taoist priest said clearly. They only looked at the Taoist priest's calm posture, which was not as annoying as ordinary Taoist priests.
