Chapter 463 Is she worthy of being the mistress of the Marquis’ Mansion?
"Don't wipe it, it's dirty." Cui Yao grabbed Xiao Jiuyue's hand, not to dirty the dirty handkerchief in her hand.
Xiao Jiuyue didn't insist. After Donggui and Huaqing went to boil the medicine, Cui Yao asked curiously, "You, your medical skills are very impressive now?"
"Master has foresight." Xiao Jiuyue looked at Cui Yao's curious eyes and said with a smile, "My master heard your symptoms and suspected that you might be poisoned. He prepared several herbs to detoxify you. As for me, I only need to use the medicine according to your symptoms."
"My master is best at treating women's diseases. After your face is healed, I will ask my master to help you regulate your body." Xiao Jiuyue thought, Cui Yao's body is so weak, but she is her future sister-in-law after all. As the future sister-in-law, she can't just stand by and watch, right?
"Miss Xiao." Cui Yao stood up with emotion and was about to bow again, but Xiao Jiuyue stopped her and said, "Sister Cui, please call me Jiuyue."
Jiuyue?
At the time, Cui Yao was Xiao Jialing's fiancée, and she didn't listen to Xiao Jiuyue's request to change her words.
Cui Yao didn't think much about it. Xiao Jiuyue asked, "Do you still remember how your face got damaged?"
"I remember it was March 3rd. I was like any other day, nothing special. But in the middle of the night, my face started to hurt and itch." Cui Yao remembered clearly what happened to her face.
March 3rd?
Xiao Jiuyue thought, at that time, his grandfather and eldest brother had just arrived in Kyoto and received the emperor's order to farm, so the Cui family didn't want this marriage to continue?
"Later, Master Jinghui hired many doctors to treat me, but they couldn't cure me. The scars on my face kept coming back."
Cui Yao mentioned Master Jinghui, her words full of gratitude, saying, "Master Jinghui is truly exceptional. She is a highly respected master and has been very kind to me. If it weren't for her care, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for me to persevere."
Well, it’s all about money.
Xiao Jiuyue didn't point out that she had sent someone to give money to Master Jinghui. She changed the subject and asked, "Don't you want to find out who harmed you?"
"You mean, they did it on purpose?" Cui Yao reacted instantly. Her expression changed again and again as she murmured, "That was when the Xiao family returned to Beijing, right?"
Ever since she threatened to commit suicide and refused to get married, and finally came to Qingfeng Temple to become a nun, she has been an abandoned daughter of the Cui family. They have ignored her for two years, and this is the third time Cui Yu has come in the past six months.
"I want to find out who harmed me." Cui Yao clenched her hands tightly. Even if she was going to die, she wanted to be a ghost who knew the truth.
Cui Yao quickly stood up and said, "Jiuyue, the vegetarian food in the nunnery is delicious. I'll go to the kitchen and ask someone to prepare some more for you so you can try it."
After Cui Yao left, Xiao Jiuyue immediately signaled Hua Qing to follow.
"Miss, she should be going to find out who harmed her?" Dong Gui poured tea for Xiao Jiuyue. Having been with Xiao Jiuyue for a long time, she remembered clearly that Xiao Jiuyue loved drinking tea, especially strong tea.
"That's good. If she just accepts her fate and becomes a slave, how can she support the Marquis' Mansion and become the future mistress of the Mansion?" Xiao Jiuyue knew very well that Xiao Jialing, as the eldest son, was now the Prince of Cheng'en and would definitely inherit the Marquis' Mansion in the future!
At that time, as Xiao Jialing's wife, what would happen if Cui Yao couldn't support herself?
Soon, news came to Xiao Jiuyue's ears one after another. Cui Yao was very smart. She knew that if she rashly found the young master who bumped into her, she would definitely not be able to get anything out of him. When she met Cui Yu and Cui Yin, she deliberately mentioned that the poison she received was given by a young master.
Cui Yu wanted to pretend to protect Cui Yao, so he immediately started making a fuss and found the young master. Cui Yu directly attacked the young master who had poisoned her, gave him twenty strokes of the cane, and drove him out of Qingfeng Temple.
"Cui Yu was truly ruthless. That young master looked to be in his teens. After being beaten with twenty sticks, his back was covered in blood. When he was thrown out of Qingfeng Temple, he was barely alive."
Hua Qing sighed and looked at Xiao Jiuyue and said, "The most important thing is, the reversal has come!"
"Young master revealed the mastermind behind this?" Xiao Jiuyue's voice was not surprised at all. If Cui Yao just drove away this young master, it would be a bit of an exaggeration.
"Yes!" Hua Qing's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Cui Yao brought vegetarian food to that young master and persuaded him not to do wrong things again. The young master was so moved that he directly pointed out the Cui family members."
"The young master was already left at the gate of Qingfeng Temple. There are so many pilgrims coming and going!"
Xiao Jiuyue could guess what Hua Qing would say next with her eyes closed. Since Cui Yao was not stupid, she would definitely be foolproof in what she did.
"Miss, I also helped and gave Cui Yu some truth pills." Hua Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "Miss, you didn't see the big show at the gate of Qingfeng Temple. The little master being beaten and driven out was not the big show. What Cui Yu said was the real show."
"I said it, the Cui family clearly ignored Cui Yao, but it turned out that they were taking care of Cui Yao, and then killed Cui Yao, and then stepped on Cui Yao's corpse to get close to the eldest young master!" Hua Qing was also shocked when he heard it!
"It's not surprising." Donggui said standing behind him.
Lian Xin had just returned from inquiring about the news and angrily said, "I knew Cui Yu had bad intentions. He followed Cui Yin in playing the good cop and the bad cop. I even attracted many pilgrims to watch the fun. The Cui family's reputation is ruined!"
"Cui Yu, don't even think about it!" Lianxin felt sorry for Cui Yao. What kind of people are the Cui family? They are plotting against their own sister.
"I'm afraid no one in Shengjing would dare to marry her."
"This is perfect for Miss Cui to get rid of this family."
“…”
After a long time, Cui Yao arrived with the vegetarian meal and introduced it enthusiastically, "Jiuyue, the vegetarian meal is ready. These vegetarian dishes are the most famous ones in Qingfeng Temple. Today, we have prepared everything."
"Then I'm in for a treat today." Xiao Jiuyue looked at the sumptuous vegetarian meal in front of him. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have never believed that this vegetarian meal was entirely vegetarian!
"Try it, the vegetarian food in Qingfeng Temple is delicious, but the food like today's is only available on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month." Cui Yao, who does not care much about food, also looks forward to the vegetarian food on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month.
"Not bad." Xiao Jiuyue's favorite is the braised tofu. Different from Mapo tofu and braised tofu, the simple braised tofu tastes particularly delicious!
After finishing the vegetarian meal, Cui Yao took the initiative to confess. She said, "Jiuyue, do you think I've gone too far?"
"Cui family, what are you going to do?" Xiao Jiuyue asked instead of answering, "The Cui family will not let this matter of Cui Yu go today."
Cui Yao shrugged nonchalantly and said, "From the moment I left the Cui family, I no longer considered myself a member of the Cui family. I'm a nun in Qingfeng Temple. Even if they're angry, they can't do anything to me!"
Qingfeng Temple is considered a half-royal temple, and the Cui family dare not act presumptuously. This is also the reason why she chose Qingfeng Temple!
