The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 301 Incense (3)
Zhao Jing was also slightly taken aback at this time, how could she expect to meet Zhou Yi in this kind of place.That day she leaned on Zhou Yi's shoulder and entered the bridal sedan chair of Marquis Wu'an's house. Although she had a clear conscience, when she met him again, there was always a kind of embarrassment that she couldn't speak.If she had known that Xu Si'an said yesterday that she would come with her, she would have agreed.

However, Zhou Yi didn't seem to be any calmer than Zhao Jing. He almost resisted the urge to stand up, and looked at her steadily, his body that was originally sitting on the stone bench became a little stiff.

The brows of the young woman in front of her were a bit springy, she looked like she had been held in the palm of a man and loved her, but it was only half a month since she saw her, and she already had a different style.

Zhou Yi's gaze fell on Zhao Jing almost irresistibly, she just looked up at herself, with a hint of rosiness on her fair cheeks, creamy skin, and distant eyebrows.Probably because of the hot weather, the beige on her body slightly revealed the whiteness of her chest, and her plump body stood up proudly under the wrapping of the fine clothes.

She stood gracefully in front of her, but Zhou Yi at this moment didn't know what to do.

"What's wrong with you? Your eyes are straight. Is it because you have been busy with government affairs recently, and you don't know how to take care of yourself?" The woman sitting opposite him spoke leisurely, with the gentleness of an elder in her voice, like this summer There is a gentle breeze.

Zhou Yi froze for a moment, withdrew his deep thoughts, and said to the woman whose back was facing Zhao Jing: "No... nothing..." He raised his chin towards Zhao Jing as he spoke, Zhao Jing understood, and turned around with her skirt up leave.

The maid Qing Wu followed behind Zhao Jing, at this moment she also saw someone else in the gazebo, a man she didn't know.She hurriedly supported Zhao Jing and turned to leave, the master and servant hurried back to the mountain path, Qingwu panted softly and confessed: "Ma'am, it's all servants who didn't see clearly, who knows that there will be a foreigner in that pavilion."

Zhao Jing had calmed down a bit at this time, and glanced at the pavilion along the shade of the tree. Zhou Yi had already stood up, and glanced this way, Zhao Jing lowered her head, seeing Qingwu's words There was still a bit of self-blame in the middle, and he said indifferently: "It's okay, let's go."

Zhou Yi watched Zhao Jing leave, but his heart could not be calm for a long time.Today she is wearing a water-pink girdle, a long skirt that drags the floor, and a palace sash of beautiful jade around her waist, and she has a graceful and swaying posture when she walks.When he saw her in the palace before, he always acted cautiously and well-behaved. How could he think that once he let go, she would be so blooming in someone else's arms.

He watched Zhao Jing's back gradually fade away almost infatuatedly, more and more melancholy appeared in his brows.The person in front of him couldn't help but stood up seeing that he still had this absent-minded expression, followed Zhou Yi's gaze, and asked him with a smile, "Which family is that lady, do you recognize her?"

At this moment, Zhou Yi withdrew his deep thinking, turned to Madam Zhulei and said, "No...no, it just looks familiar."

Madam Zhulei then sat down, there was hot tea brewed by a maid in the gazebo, they had just drank a cup.She mentioned Choshi tea and filled another cup for Zhou Yi, and said, "I heard from Mingzhen that you want to take another noble concubine, which family is it this time? Now that the princess is gone, I'm afraid that some people will miss this position." , instead of taking a concubine, it is better to bring up a serious princess to help you take care of the back house." She paused here and continued: "Besides... you should have a queen too."

Mrs. Zhulei opened her mouth lightly, and filled a cup of tea for Zhou Yi in the blink of an eye. She put down the tea cup, looked up at Zhou Yi, and continued: "She is already dead. What you feel owed to her is always worth it now." You can also let it go, do you really want to live alone like this forever?"

Zhao Jing's back has disappeared into the path in the mountain, and the dense forest has hidden her beautiful figure.Zhou Yi withdrew his gaze, turned around and sat down, and after listening to Mrs. Zhu Lei finished speaking, he raised his head and said, "I owe her, and I won't pay it back in this life. It doesn't matter if there is a future." He picked up the Chazhan raised his head and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, then raised his head and said, "It's getting late, I'll take you back to the Buddhist monastery."

Probably because Zhao Jing still had some scruples about Zhou Yi in her heart, she couldn't help but walk a little faster. Fortunately, not far from the pavilion, she arrived at the back mountain of Cihang Nunnery. On the open mountainside, several Buddhist temples are built adjacent to each other, and the bamboo forest huts have a unique style.

Because Zhang's mother came to explore the way first, she found Xu Xian's biological mother's residence first. Seeing Zhao Jing and her maids coming, she stepped forward to lead them over, and stopped at the gate of a small courtyard with bamboo fence.The courtyard is very small, there are only three meditation rooms in it, various kinds of fruits and vegetables are planted in the small flower garden in the courtyard, a pomegranate tree is full of fruits, and half of its branches protrude from the fence.

Zhao Jing just wanted to invite Zhang's mother to call the door, the curtain inside flashed, and a young woman in a light gray Taoist robe fell into Zhao Jing's eyes.The Taoist robe on her body was spotless, her hair was combed in a bun, fixed with an ebony hairpin, she had no powder or daisy, her face was a little pale, but she looked a bit calm and relaxed, and at a glance, she was indeed related to Xu Xian. Sixty-seven points similar.
