Watching Zhu Xianyue get hurt was more painful than grinding his flesh with a blunt knife.

Seeing Jiang Yunqing calm down, Zhu Xianyue put down the hairpin.

At this point, Old Madam Jiang also felt a little more love, pity and guilt towards Zhu Xianyue.

It was a good decision to adopt this adopted daughter.

She would love her as her own daughter.

…

Mu Guidi quickly prepared the meal and everyone sat at the table to eat.

Zhu Xianyue's wound has been bandaged.

Rich families believe in "no talking while eating and no talking while sleeping", so everyone wasn't too embarrassed.

After finishing the meal, Jiang Yunqing felt depressed and out of spirits.

Mrs. Jiang felt sorry for her son and asked him to go back and rest.

Jiang Yunqing really wanted to see Zhu Xianyue again, just one more look...

Mu Guiyi came up to Zhu Xianyue and said, "I'm going to the temple to pray today. Would you like to go with me?"

No matter what, she was the one who took advantage of Zhu Xianyue.

Now that Zhu Xianyue has become Jiang Yunqing's sensible sister, she naturally cannot treat her unfairly anymore.

"Okay. Yue'er is new to the capital and doesn't know anyone here. I'd appreciate your help, sister-in-law."

"We're a family, why are you being polite?"

The two of them had a deep "sisterly love" and got on the carriage together.

Seeing this, Jiang Yunqing knew that he could never get Zhu Xianyue again.

Old Madam Jiang felt a little regretful. Her son was like an eggplant hit by frost. What should she do?

She spoke to Jiang Yunqing, but Jiang Yunqing ignored her and locked himself in the room in the front yard to handle military affairs and read military books. He didn't even come out for lunch...

…

On the way to Yinuo Temple, Mu Guidi took out a purse and handed it to Zhu Xianyue.

The purse was heavy, filled with gold bars.

"...Since you call me sister-in-law, I should give you something. But since you are so beautiful, any jewelry would be superfluous to you. So, I will give you this vulgar thing, so please don't refuse..."

Mu Guicui's voice was a little choked. It seemed that she didn't expect that Zhu Xianyue didn't compete with her for Jiang Yunqing.

She knew in her heart that even though she had some of the tricks of a woman in the inner palace, if Zhu Xianyue really wanted to be a wife of the Jiang family, Jiang Yunqing would definitely do everything he could to overcome all difficulties for her.

Now they have Old Madam Jiang to support them, but she is old. If she dies, who can stop Jiang Yunqing who is still devoted to Zhu Xianyue?

Zhu Xianyue was so generous, yet she schemed against him...

Mu Guicui has been the housekeeper for many years and believes that he has done nothing wrong to anyone, but he has done nothing wrong to Zhu Xianyue.

"Sister-in-law, I am even more grateful to my brother-in-law." Zhu Xianyue pointed out this, which also made Mu Guicui feel at ease.

She didn't like Jiang Yunqing very much, but Jiang Yunqing was too nice to her, so she couldn't bear to refuse him.

But Jiang Yunqing has his own responsibilities, so she won't interfere.

Mu Guiyi paused and said, "Sister, with such a graceful demeanor, you will surely attract the attention of all the men in the capital. When you get married, your sister-in-law will give you a generous dowry."

Mu Guidi came from a prominent family, so the things he gave her were naturally not bad.

Zhu Xianyue just gave up a man, but gained a mother, Mrs. Jiang, who loved her, and a sister-in-law, Mu Guidi, for free. She felt that she had gained something.

…

The Yin-Yang Temple is located on the top of a mountain. In order to seek the Buddha's protection, pilgrims walk up the mountain.

Prepare plenty of clothes, and when you arrive at the temple's dormitory, take a bath, burn incense, and pray wholeheartedly.

But they didn't expect that a group of bandits would appear halfway and, seeing the two beautiful ladies Zhu Xianyue and Mu Guidi, they actually had evil intentions!
