"I don't come here very often, but I come here basically every year. I came here with my mother when I was a child, and now sometimes I come here with Cai'er." Yuchi Ziling replied.
Jiang Hai nodded in understanding. Since crossing over, he had spent most of his time building the new city and hadn't visited any temples or Taoist temples in a long time. At home, his stepmother, Siqin, took care of everything.
"Then what are you asking for?" Jiang Hai asked Yuchi Ziling briefly as he followed her.
"I came here to fulfill a vow." Yuchi Ziling said.
Jiang Hai actually didn't quite understand all this, but he nodded to show that he understood. Seeing that she looked very sincere, he stopped teasing her.
Yuchi Ziling was familiar with the place, so she burned some incense and added some money. Later, she even asked a Taoist priest to make a peace talisman for Jiang Hai.
Seeing Yuchi Ziling put the amulet into her purse, Jiang Hai felt a warm feeling in his heart. Although this kind of thing was also done by his stepmother Siqin at home, the feeling at this moment was different.
After tying the purse again, Yuchi Ziling smiled.
"Let's go back."
"Okay." Jiang Hai nodded in response.
The two men left Taixuan Temple, got their horses, and headed back.
Just as the two of them mounted their horses and were about to leave, a carriage arrived at the door. It looked like a pretty good carriage.
A woman got out of the car. She had a pretty face and a little bit of baby fat, which made her look cute. She immediately recognized Yuchi Ziling, who was dressed as a man.
"Sister Ziling." The woman called out to Yuchi Ziling who was about to leave.
Jiang Hai also stopped his horse when he heard the sound. It seemed that he met an acquaintance.
Yuchi Ziling turned her horse's head and looked over. It was indeed an acquaintance, Miss Guo Qianqian from the Right Guard General's Mansion.
Her father Guo Hao and Yuchi Zhong were colleagues. As young ladies from the general's mansion, they had been in contact with each other since childhood.
Yuchi Ziling whispered to Jiang Hai about the other person's identity, and then stepped forward to greet her.
"Sister Qianqian is also here at Taixuan Temple."
"Well, is my sister leaving?" After asking this, Guo Qianqian's eyes lit up with gossip, and then she asked, "I heard that my sister is getting married."
Yuchi Ziling was a little surprised. Could the news spread so quickly? It just came back yesterday, and it was already being reported today.
"Yes, next month. My sister is really well-informed." Yuchi Ziling nodded in reply.
Then Guo Qianqian talked to Yuchi Ziling for a while. Jiang Hai was standing a little distance away and couldn't hear clearly, but he heard the other party mentioned "the county magistrate's son." And there seemed to be a bit of contempt in her eyes when she looked at Jiang Hai.
Jiang Hai was a little depressed. Was he being disliked? Tsk, this damn fat woman.
In fact, Guo Qianqian was not fat, she just looked a little chubby. However, Young Master Jiang probably guessed that she disliked him, so he mentally classified her as a fat woman.
After a while, Yuchi Ziling said goodbye to her and returned to Jiang Hai. She rode away silently with Jiang Hai.
The two walked quietly for a while, and Yuchi Ziling couldn't help laughing.
Jiang Hai had a question mark on his head, blinked his eyes and smiled at her,
"What are you laughing at? Is it really that funny?" Jiang Hai said unhappily, "You just despise me for my low status."
"Oh, Young Master Jiang actually overheard everything." Yuchi Ziling laughed even harder.
"Tsk, is there any need to eavesdrop? I can guess it from the look in her eyes."
"Ahem," Yuchi Ziling cleared her throat and imitated Guo Qianqian's tone, "Sister, how could you fall in love with this man? And to marry him to that shabby place in southern Xinjiang? How could you be so foolish as to marry the county magistrate's son?"
Jiang Hai rolled his eyes when he heard this. "This damn fat woman actually ridiculed me like this."
"Hahahaha," Yuchi Ziling wiped away the tears of laughter, "Look, I'm marrying down."
Jiang Hai put the reins into Yuchi Ziling's hands and said pretentiously,
"Brother Su, don't pull me along. I'm going to beat up that fat woman."
"Puchi..." Yuchi Ziling was amused by him, "You are so fake, I didn't mean to pull you but you stuffed the reins into me."
Jiang Hai then angrily took back the reins, calmed himself down, turned around and asked her seriously,
"So what do you think?"
Yuchi Ziling shook her head noncommittally.
"I didn't think of anything."
Jiang Hai nodded slightly with satisfaction. Yuchi Ziling stopped laughing at him and talked to him about Guo Qianqian.
"Actually, I'm not that familiar with her. It's just because of my dad that I see her often. I can't hang out with her. She likes those pedantic scholars and often hangs out in literary societies."
Jiang Hai nodded and said,
"So what kind do you like? The kind that deals with swords and guns?"
"I don't know either," Yuchi Ziling shook her head, "If it weren't for this engagement, I really wouldn't know what kind of person I like."
"Can this be understood as you like the appearance of the person on the engagement?" Jiang Hai raised his eyebrows and teased.
"..." Yuchi Ziling was very impressed, "Brother Hai Wang, your face is getting thicker day by day. I admire you."
"Thank you very much. I didn't expect Brother Su to be such a humorous person." Jiang Hai bowed.
The two of them walked out of Xingzhengfang chatting and laughing. When they came out, they saw a few people on the opposite side who were about to enter the square.
Coincidentally, it was the peacock with its tail spread that they met in Taihe City, three young men, and a few servants. However, Yuchi Ziling was dressed in men's clothing, so the other party didn't seem to notice Jiang Hai and the others, and Jiang Hai didn't bother to pay attention to them.
Just when we passed by each other, I heard someone on the opposite side seemed to be saying something like "cousin Qianqian", and he looked like he was drooling.
Oh, it turned out to be Guo Qianqian's cousin. After passing by, Jiang Hai said,
"Hey, did you hear that? Among those people is the fat woman's cousin."
"Yeah. I heard it," Yuchi Ziling asked in confusion, "What does it have to do with me? I don't know him."
"It's none of your business. I just feel a little comfortable." Jiang Hai said calmly, "A fat woman and a peacock are a perfect match."
Yuchi Ziling understood what he meant.
"Guo Qianqian really likes these so-called talented people. Hey, maybe she made an appointment to meet here, and we just happened to run into her."
After hearing this, Jiang Hai smiled happily, as if a villain had succeeded.
Yuchi Ziling rolled her eyes at him and said disdainfully, "Why do I find you have a bit of a dark side again? Look at that shifty smile of yours."
"Ahem," Jiang Hai coughed twice, "Oops, I accidentally revealed my true identity."
Yuchi Ziling saw him acting up again, but she didn't take it to heart. She felt that he was quite genuine. He was not like those young masters who appeared to be gentlemen on the surface, but were actually much worse than him.
Jiang Hai put away his smile and saw that it was not too late.
"Madam, do you want to go to our Jiang residence? It's on the way anyway. It's a bit early to go back to the General's Mansion now."
Yuchi Ziling thought about it and it seemed that it was not impossible, so she nodded and agreed.
"Okay, since you haven't been there yet, it's okay for you to go and take a look."
