[Latest News] Tomorrow is May 515th, the anniversary celebration of Qidian, the day with the most benefits! Besides gift packs and backpacks, you definitely don't want to miss the "515 Red Envelope Frenzy"—there's no reason not to grab a red envelope! Set your alarms!
Inside Wutong Temple, Wei Yu, who had enjoyed several cups of tea and games of chess with Master Yuanwu, waited for his sister-in-law Chu Lin before leaving Jingyuan to check on the situation at the gate.
As he walked out, his face grew increasingly dark. This was because he overheard the pilgrims discussing matters related to their family.
The Wei family's carriage weaved through the crowd.
"The Wei family's coachman hit someone and then assaulted them."
"The eldest daughter-in-law of the Wei family hid in the carriage while the driver bullied the people."
······
Of course, there are other topics as well:
"That girl who got beaten up is really tough; she's not afraid of offending someone so powerful and influential."
"Didn't she force them to apologize to everyone? I heard she even whipped the coachman twenty times."
"Before I'd hit them twenty times, they got reinforcements."
"I have to say, I found it quite satisfying to watch the driver kneel down and kowtow."
······
Just as Wei Yu was about to grab someone to ask what had happened, he saw Li Xiaonuan and her daughter walking towards him. A sudden, ominous premonition rose in his heart. Could it be that the Wei family carriage had hit them?
"Young master, what brings you to the gate?" The servant, who was about to turn the carriage into the temple, saw his young master standing there in a daze and called out to him.
Coming to his senses, Wei Yu walked towards the carriage. Once he stood beside it, he said through the curtain, "Sister-in-law, Master Yuanwu is at Jingyuan. You can just go there directly."
Someone inside the car replied, "Uncle, you're so thoughtful."
A corner of the car window was lifted, and Chu Xun'er called out through the curtain, "Brother Yu, why don't you get in the car and we'll go in together?"
Wei Yu frowned; he hadn't known this troublemaker had come. Therefore, he refused, saying, "Sister Xun'er, you go inside with your sister-in-law first. Master Yuanwu has been waiting for a long time."
Inside the car, Chu Lin scolded Chu Xun'er: "Why don't you behave yourself and stop causing trouble?"
Chu Xun'er stuck out her tongue, winked playfully at Wei Yu, and said, "Then I'll go in with my sister first. Brother Yu, you'd better hurry up and come in too."
Wei Yu couldn't stand it any longer and gestured to Xiao Si with his eyes to hurry up. Xiao Si obeyed and quickly drove the carriage away. Only after watching the carriage go inside did Wei Yu begin to look for Li Xiaonuan.
Li Xiaonuan saw Wei Yu when Xiao Si called for help. But thinking about her previous experience, Li Xiaonuan felt lingering fear. She even began to consider whether to find a different partner. After all, choosing the wrong partner would affect the entire operational process.
As the three members of the Su family entered the main hall of the temple, a colossal statue of Shakyamuni Buddha stood in the center. The golden Buddha statue smiled down upon all living beings. Its face was kind and benevolent, like an elder looking lovingly upon his descendants.
Because of the strange event of time travel, Li Xiaonuan felt devout and knelt down with the three members of the Su family. After bowing, they added money to the donation box, received incense and candles from the temple keeper, lit them, and then left the main hall.
"You all go to the Temple of the Old Man Under the Moon, I'll go to the Temple of the God of Literature by myself," Aunt Huang said as they arrived outside the temple. Her two sons and daughter were all married, and her eldest grandson had started attending a private school last year.
After thinking it over, Mrs. Su and Aunt Zhou agreed. Before leaving, Aunt Zhou instructed, "Aunt Huang, we'll meet up with the fortune teller later."
At the foot of the main hall steps stood Wei Yu, a refined and elegant young man. His crimson brocade robe accentuated his spirited appearance, attracting the admiring glances of countless young women. However, the aloofness emanating from him spoke of keeping strangers at bay.
Seeing Li Xiaonuan emerge, the Second Young Master Wei gave a wicked smile that captivated countless young girls. But then, with a delicate gesture, he grasped the hair ribbon hanging in front of his chest and walked towards Li Xiaonuan with irresistible charm.
Li Xiaonuan felt a chill run down her spine, so she lowered her head and pretended not to see the man, pulling Su Shi towards the side hall. Su Shi and Aunt Zhou were whispering privately to each other, so they didn't notice Wei Yu.
After turning past the first pillar, Li Xiaonuan thought she had finally shaken off that troublesome man. But as it turns out, there are always some things in life that are destined to be unavoidable.
"Xiao Nuan, why did you leave as soon as you saw her? Wait for her!"
A chorus of surprised exclamations arose behind them. Rubbing her trembling skin, Li Xiaonuan quickened her pace, pulling Su Shi along. However, short legs were destined to be outrun by long legs. In just a few breaths, their beloved Second Young Master Wei blocked their path.
"Xiao Nuan, why are you ignoring me? I'm going to get angry. Humph." The tall, seven-foot-tall man pouted his sharply defined lips, his androgynous face puffed out in anger.
Frustrated, Li Xiaonuan, under the questioning gazes of Madam Su and Aunt Zhou, feigned composure and said to Wei Yu, "Young Master Wei, are you possessed today? Or should I take you to the temple keeper to exorcise the evil spirit?"
Wei Yu, who was feeling extremely disgusted, quickly changed his mind and nodded in agreement, "Okay, take me to the temple keeper." He looked innocent and naive.
Su whispered in Li Xiaonuan's ear, "Xiaonuan, what happened to Young Master Wei?"
Tears welled up in Li Xiaonuan's eyes. Looking at the curious Su Shi and Aunt Zhou, she could only bite the bullet and answer, "It's nothing, he's probably having a relapse. I'll take him to his family. You go to the Matchmaker Temple first, I'll be back soon."
Aunt Zhou urged, "Then hurry up and go. This young master is so handsome, don't let anyone kidnap him."
Li Xiaonuan could only chuckle at Aunt Zhou's kindness. She was just playing dumb. She probably knew what had happened before and was here to settle scores. Pulling on Wei Yu's hairband, Li Xiaonuan adopted a more sisterly tone and said:
"Little Weiwei, be good. Come with me, I'll take you to find your mother."
Her cloying tone made Wei Yu's temples throb. He regretted his actions a little. But having gone this far, he could only continue. Letting Li Xiaonuan lead him towards the main hall, Wei Yu gave the curiously looking temple keeper a wink.
The temple keeper, having received a hint, quickly stepped forward to help Wei Yu up, saying, "This young master is not feeling well; the abbot needs to perform a ritual. Please follow me, young lady."
Going out through the revolving door to the right of the main Buddha in the main hall, you'll find a small garden, which is usually used by the abbot to teach Buddhism to his lay disciples.
Once inside the garden, Wei Yu immediately returned to normal. He thanked the temple keeper and offered a silver note as donation. The keeper chanted a Buddhist prayer and then turned and left. This series of actions made Li Xiaonuan's teeth ache.
"Weren't you surprised when you saw my sister-in-law?" Wei Yu asked Li Xiaonuan, sitting down on a new and clean-looking futon, his usual smug expression returning.
Li Xiaonuan also found a futon to sit down and replied, "It is a bit of a surprise that there is another person in the world who looks so much like me."
Wei Yu remained calm and composed, then said seriously, "When the conflict arose, were you planning to stop cooperating with me?"
Li Xiaonuan did not deny it, saying, "I still have this plan. I think we should find another more reliable person to cooperate with."
Wei Yu replied, "In the entire Yongzhou Prefecture, you can't find a more suitable candidate than me. If you say that person is Qi Ji, I advise you to think about it."
Li Xiaonuan asked him in surprise, "Do you know Doctor Qi?"
Wei Yu gave a mocking smile and replied, "I've known him since we were little. We used to steal bird eggs together, even when we were naked. Not only him, but my sister-in-law also grew up with us. She and he are childhood sweethearts."
