Ye Luoxin looked at the two lonely graves in a daze.
A feeling of sadness welled up from the bottom of my heart.
Xiao Mu knelt down, pulled out all the weeds on the grave, and tidied it up a little before Ye Luoxin placed candles and sacrifices.
The two knelt in front of the grave and kowtowed three times respectfully.
Seeing that Ye Luoxin was silent, Xiao Mu took the initiative and said:
"Father, mother, don't worry, I will treat Luo Xin well."
Ye Luoxin turned to look at Xiao Mu, and saw that his expression was serious and pious, and her heart suddenly felt warm.
After burning the paper money, the two were ready to get up and go back.
Only then did Ye Luoxin realize that the clothes on Xiao Mu's hands were covered with soil from the recent weeding.
She took out the handkerchief and wiped it, but found that the soil had dried up and could not be wiped off at all.
"It doesn't matter. I'll wash up later when I pass by a place with river water." Xiao Mu said.
"Why don't we go to the temple to wash up!" Ye Luoxin pointed to Yunzhou Temple not far away, "Since you are here, let's go in and burn incense."
Xiao Mu looked up and said, "Okay!"
In her previous life, Ye Luoxin never believed in ghosts and gods, and she never went to temples to burn incense and pray for blessings.
But after traveling here, some things were difficult to explain clearly, which made her feel in awe of places like temples.
The two people slowly walked to the top of the mountain.
After entering the temple, Xiao Mu was led by the novice monk to clean his hands, while Ye Luoxin walked to the main hall.
The incense in Yunzhou Temple is not very strong, and there are only a dozen people worshiping in the temple.
Ye Luoxin took three sticks of incense from the young monk and inserted them into the incense burner. Just as she was about to kowtow in the main hall, she was suddenly bumped into by a hurried figure.
The man was holding hot tea in his hand. Although Ye Luoxin tried her best to avoid it, it still inevitably spilled on her body.
"Why can't you walk without eyes?"
Ye Luoxin wiped the water off her body. She didn't want to argue, but she didn't expect that the other party would strike first.
"Who doesn't have eyes? You were the one who hit me first!" She replied without hesitation.
"Do you know how much the bowl of tea you knocked over cost?" The other person's tone was urgent.
Ye Luoxin looked up and saw that the other person was dressed like a maid from a wealthy family. Seeing her guilty look, Ye Luoxin smiled softly:
"Why, you knocked over the master's tea and you can't pay for it. Now you want to find the top bag? No matter how expensive your tea is, you still have to pay for it if it gets my clothes wet."
"you……"
The little girl wanted to say something more, but at this moment, a steady voice interrupted her.
"Dongmei, how can you make a noise in front of the main hall?"
"Old Madam!" As soon as the girl named Dongmei heard the voice, she immediately bowed and saluted.
Ye Luoxin turned around and saw an elegant old lady standing behind her. She had a kind face and was wearing a sapphire blue dress. There were no extra accessories on her body, and her silver hair became the most conspicuous feature.
When the old lady saw Ye Luoxin, her attitude was very kind: "The girl at home bumped into this girl, I hope she will forgive me."
They say don’t hit someone with a smiling face.
The old lady's attitude was so good that Ye Luoxin's anger immediately disappeared.
"The old lady has said so, so let's forget about it."
Dongmei was a little anxious: "Old madam, we only have seven days' worth of herbal tea left. If you spill this cup, you will stop taking the medicine before you return to Beijing!"
"If you don't want to eat it, don't eat it. The herbal tea from Laoshizi is so bitter, I don't like it in the first place!"
What the old lady said was a bit childish.
Listening to the words of the master and servant, Ye Luoxin felt more and more that this lady was different from the stereotype of a lady from a wealthy family.
This old lady should be easy to talk to, right?
Her heart moved, and she immediately stepped forward and took out a round purse from her pocket:
"Old madam, I see that you are elegant and generous, with an outstanding temperament. I have a special purse here that matches you very well. Take a look, do you like it?"
"You, back off, don't be rude to the old lady!" Dongmei grabbed Ye Luoxin's hand and tried to throw it away.
At the same time, the old lady grabbed Ye Luoxin's wrist and said eagerly: "Ruyu, is it you? Are you finally willing to come back?"
Ye Luoxin was startled and subconsciously wanted to step back.
But the old lady's thin fingers burst out with great strength and tightly grasped Ye Luoxin's wrist, unable to pry it open at all.
The little maid quickly supported the old lady and said in a trembling voice: "Old lady, you have recognized the wrong person. This is not a young lady."
But the old lady didn't seem to hear the maid's words at all. She stared at Ye Luoxin and murmured: "Ruyu, you are Ruyu, I finally see you again!"
Only then did Ye Luoxin realize that the old lady's eyes were cloudy.
So when they were far away, she couldn't see people clearly.
But it wasn't any better when we got closer, so I still admitted my mistake!
The little maid also changed her attitude at this time and begged Ye Luoxin: "I'm sorry, my old lady has recognized the wrong person. Please don't shout or scream, otherwise she will scare her. I will serve her right now." Medicine, as long as she drinks the medicine, she will be fine."
Ye Luoxin nodded.
By chance, Xiao Mu came back after washing his hands.
Seeing this scene, I thought Ye Luoxin was being bullied, so I quickly took a few steps forward and asked, "Luoluo, what's wrong?"
Ye Luoxin smiled at him, made a reassuring expression, and then coaxed the old lady and said, "Old lady, it's windy outside, why don't we go to the house and talk."
There were other pilgrims coming and going, and Ye Luoxin did not want to attract onlookers. He coaxed the old lady to go back to the dormitory where they lived.
There were three girls in the dormitory, and they were all shocked when they saw the old lady dragging Ye Luoxin in with her.
It wasn't until she saw Dongmei following the two of them that she immediately understood what was going on.
"Has the old lady's old habit happened again?" a maid mouthed and asked.
Dongmei nodded quickly.
The two people helped the old lady sit on the soft bed. The old lady still didn't let go, so Ye Luoxin had no choice but to sit on it.
"Chunhua, quickly, make another bowl of Old Madam's medicinal tea."
After hearing this, Chunhua hurriedly went to make tea.
But the old lady leaned on Ye Luoxin's shoulder like a child, and said happily: "Ruyu, I knew you would be reluctant to let your mother go alone.
Although you haven't come home to see me for ten years, my mother won't blame you.
It's all your father's fault. It was your father who forced you away in the first place! Now that Mom has found you, Mom won’t go back. Let’s live together without that bad old man, okay? "
Listening to the old lady's words, Ye Luoxin knew that she must be longing for her daughter, but if she wanted to leave her husband, she really didn't dare to agree.
He had no choice but to look at Xiao Mu and the girls as if asking for help.
"Girl, no matter what Madam says, just accept it! She will forget it when she wakes up!" Dongmei said.
Ye Luoxin then nodded and agreed: "Okay! I'll take you home!"
There is one more chapter, it will be a little later!
