The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter 229 Going up the mountain to worship the ancestors

While laughing and making trouble, he saw that Ji had already left the house, and was approached by the Qiao clan.

Seeing that the ancestors have arrived, everyone left the house with a smile. It's just that Xie Ruzhuo inadvertently glanced back when he was leaving, and saw the haze on Xie Rufei's face.

She was taken aback for a moment, before she was able to get into the carriage, she whispered softly, "What's the matter with the fifth sister, I just saw her look unhappy."

Qiao and her sisters drove a carriage, and they turned around, "It's not that concubine made a fuss. Seeing that his belly is getting bigger, his temper has also grown up. In ten days, eight days have coaxed your uncle to go to the courtyard. Inside. Li is also pitiful and has already wiped tears in front of your grandma several times."

After hearing this, Xie Ruyue gritted her teeth first, "How big a face can be born from a concubine's belly, before the child is born, she is arrogant first."

Xie Ruzhuo tugged at the corner of her clothes and jokingly said, "Okay, who can I show you such a bitter face? My future brother-in-law can talk about it, and they promise not to marry a concubine."

Seeing Xie Ruzhuo teasing herself, Xie Ruyueyuan was still a little angry, she blushed immediately, smiled and said, "I don't have to say what I do. You are only one year younger than me. You are only one year younger than me in early autumn. Not for you!"

What she said was the truth, but Xie Ruzhuo made a sudden sound in her heart, and then she cuddled her body beside Qiao's and said, "I will guard my mother and be an old girl for a lifetime, and I won't marry."

She just wanted to marry, but she wouldn't have that blessing.

Fengming Mountain is not close to home, but the carriage galloped all the way and walked for a short time. It was almost noon before reaching the foot of the mountain.

The mountain road is not too rugged, and the horse-drawn carriage is not bad. There was heavy snowfall, and although there were many trees in the mountains, they were all covered by a layer of snow. From a distance, they were all covered in silver.

Looking up from the foot of the mountain, the ancestral hall hidden at the top of the mountain is also faintly visible. The red walls and biwa are particularly conspicuous, and there are red plum blossoms in full bloom, floating in the distance as if there is a seemingly non-existent fragrance.

After a short while, I finally reached the ancestral hall on the top of the mountain.

Xie Ruyue jumped out of the carriage first and smiled, "The bones are all sitting on tingling, really tired." As she said, she turned around and helped Qiao and Xie Ruzhuo down.

Xie Ruzhuo looked at her straightforward temper with a smile, and followed Ji and others into the small courtyard beside the ancestral hall.

This ancestral hall is chosen for a good location. There is also a Buddhist hall on the side. Although there are not many incenses on weekdays, it does not have the Zen atmosphere of an ancient Buddha with a blue lantern.

A servant has long been here to respond, and the head is a middle-aged woman who is over forty years old, with a shrewd and capable look on her face. She said with a ritual and smiled, “I’ve been looking forward to seeing the true face of the old lady a long time ago, but now that I have seen it, I know that there are really living Bodhisattvas in the world. Look at this whole body, the real one is from the temple. It's coming down."

While she was talking, she greeted everyone in.

Ji smiled and said, "You can talk, are you all arranged today?"

The woman replied, "Yes, don't worry, old prince, the old slaves have prepared everything for the ancestor worship, and the rooms and courtyards for the masters have also been cleaned up."

Seeing that everything in this ancestral hall was clean and tidy, Ji also nodded with satisfaction, "Well, let's change clothes first."

Those who rushed along the way said they changed their clothes, but they just wiped their heads, faces, etc., and went to the rustic before they could bow down to their ancestors.

At noon, all the talents were cleaned up, and the Ji family took the lead, and respectfully kowtow incense to the memorial tablets in the ancestral hall full of houses.

Xie Ruzhuo still didn't think about it when he was in the small ancestral hall at home. But now that she has arrived here, she has only discovered how strong the incense of the Xie family is.

After Ji's incense was given, her wife had helped her up and let her daughter-in-laws of the next generation go to incense.

By the time Xie Ruzhuo, her knees were a little numb. Xie Ruzhuo got up and walked to the memorial tablet, knelt down again, and muttered silently in his heart, "May the ancestors bless the unfilial descendants Xie Ruzhuo, so that he can get what he wants. Under the yellow spring, the unfilial descendants will come to apologize again."

The green smoke on the incense burner, the rows of spiritual cards, are like pairs of dead eyes.

Xie Ruzhuo took the incense solemnly, and then backed away.

Xie Ruyue had been standing by, and only when she saw her coming over, she asked softly, "Seeing that your expression has not been very good, what's the matter?"

"Nothing." Xie Ruzhuo shook his head and smiled, looking at the tablets inadvertently, Yu Guang unexpectedly saw a maid quietly walking by Xie Ruyin's side and stuffing her with a paper ball.

Looking at Xie Ruyin again, her face was at a loss. After hearing the servant's whisper, she instantly turned into joy.

Xie Ruzhuo was puzzled, and Xie Ruyue also looked in her direction, but found nothing, because she asked, "What are you looking at?"

Xie Ruzhuo shook his head and said, "It's okay, I was wrong."

Seeing her like this, Xie Ruyue also knew she was on her mind, so she smiled and said, "It's a rare occasion. Let's go out and visit."

As he said, he dragged Xie Ruzhuo and walked outside.

I didn't want to go out, so I heard Xie Rufei yelling in the house, "You don't have eyes, do you want to kill me!"

Xie Ruzhuo turned his head abruptly, and saw Xie Ruyin's face eagerly crying, "Fifth Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

"Hmph, it wasn't intentional, I think you did it intentionally! The little concubine gave birth to the tabletop, and pretended to be so pitiful!" Xie Rufei obviously cares about the matter with a look of indignation.

When Li heard her words, he was too busy to step forward and reprimand in a low voice, "Mayfair, don't say that, my sister."

Xie Ruyin was obviously annoyed by Xie Rufei's words, but he didn't dare to refute it, and immediately started crying aggrievedly, but the voice was like a cat's whimper, and it looked so pitiful.

She cried and said, "Fifth Sister, I really, really didn't mean to, oooo."

Xie Rufei had an unhappy look at first, but now seeing her like this, she is even more upset and said, "I write things, cry or cry, a prostitute is also selling a poor girl here, and I am upset to see it!"

Upon seeing this, Ji's face suddenly sank, and said, "Is this an ancestral hall, and a place for nonsense! Li, take your daughter back to the room, there is no trouble!"

Seeing Ji's reprimand, Xie Rufei looked upset, but Li was taken to apologize, "Mother will calm down, and I will take her back." After Li finished speaking, she dragged Xie Rufei out of the ancestral hall.

Xie Ruyin didn't dare to cry any more, and said pitifully, "Grandma, I'm back to the room too." Then he left the house.

Seeing that the ancestral hall was quiet again, Xie Ruyue took Xie Ruzhuo's hand again and walked out.

After getting nowhere, Xie Ruyue whispered, "Zuo'er, have you noticed that Wumei has changed a lot recently?"

Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo responded casually, "No, where did it change?" She has been busy with other things recently, and has not paid attention to Xie Rufei, but the person who gave Xie Ruyin a note today made her very alert.

"Although her temper was not the best among sisters in the past, she has always been generous. It's just that I don't know why recently, but her temper is extremely irritable, as if she has lost her nature." Xie Ruyue said here, too. Fucked her eyebrows tightly, for some reason, she always felt that there was something wrong with Xie Rufei, as if someone had stolen her kindness.

Xie Ruzhuo only paid attention to the servant, and never took Xie Ruyue's words to heart. He still responded indiscriminately, "Yes."

Seeing that she didn't care at all, Xie Ruyue said helplessly, "It's nothing, telling you is nothing." She knows Xie Ruzhuo's temperament best, except for this biological sister, there are really few people that can make this girl care.

After returning, Xie Ruzhuo called Hongrui solemnly, and whispered, "You will stare at Miss Liu later. If there is any change, please tell me at any time."

Hong Rui responded, turned around and went to Xie Ruyin's yard, leaving Xie Ruzhuo's face solemn. Xie Ruyin's smile was too obvious before, it was only for a woman who was deeply in love. If Xie Ruyin really has a sweetheart, she doesn't mind the blessing, but the premise is that this person will not be a threat to the Xie family.

But the matter of secretly passing a note, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like something a serious person has done. I'm afraid there is something tricky in it.

In the afternoon, the tribute was given to the ancestors. Xie Ruzhuo always followed the movements of the elders to place them, but his eyes did not leave Xie Ruyin's sight.

She had cried at noon, and her eyes were slightly red and swollen. At this moment, she was worrying about her, and she looked restless.

Hong Rui walked to Xie Ruzhuo quietly and said, "Miss, after Miss Six went back at noon, the first thing she did was to try on clothes, she looked like she was going out."

Xie Ruzhuo said, "Just keep staring."

She wanted to see who was the one who got on the line with Xie Ruyin!

But she never expected that that person completely exceeded Xie Ruzhuo's expectations.

After dinner in the evening, I saw Hongrui running in anxiously, panting, "Miss, Miss Six is ​​out!"

Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo stood up immediately, instructed Qian Bi to guard his house, and then ran along Xie Ruyin's direction with Hongrui.

The night on this mountain is dark and the wind is high, and the stars are dim tonight, and it is getting harder to find someone. Fortunately, Xie Ruyin was carrying a lantern when he went out. Now it is winter again, with snowflakes reflecting on the ground. Xie Ruzhuo and two of them searched for a while and saw a petite figure entering the temple.

Xie Ruzhuo quietly followed, and then pushed open the back door of the monastery, and saw Xie Ruyin enter the house.

Hong Rui asked quietly, "Miss, shall we go in?"

Xie Ruzhuo gave a boo and locked the door tightly. Only seven knocks on the door were heard before someone opened the door.

The moment the door opened, Xie Ruzhuo instantly widened his eyes. The person in that room was not someone else, it was Xiao Junyi, the fifth prince who had spent a lot of time with Xie Ru, who was the first to become a king!

Xie Ruzhuo took a step back abruptly, only feeling sweaty palms. She never expected that Xie Ruyin would get on the line with Xiao Junyi! Then what kind of character Xiao Junyi is, she knows better than anyone else, cruel, unscrupulous, and lewd. Hasn't Xie Ruyin seen it all these years? Now he is still jumping into his pit, it is simply looking for death!

It's okay to find death, but this is a fire pit but she took the Xie family and jumped together!

Xie Ruzhuo endured the anger in his heart and turned to look inside the temple again, only to see that the door had been closed again, and Xie Ruyin had already entered.

She took a deep breath and said, "Hongrui, let's go back."

Hong Rui glanced worriedly at the temple and whispered, "Then we don't care about Miss Six?"

"How can you leave it alone? Let's talk about it when she comes back." After speaking, Xie Ruzhuo turned to the residence in the ancestral hall, only to enter, but Xie Ruyin's room.
