"No rush, I want to take Yu Jiao with me." Yu Qizhe said.
Song smiled and said, "Okay, take your sister with you. She hasn't been out for a long time."
Not long after, Yu Fuling and Yu Jiao came back from the river after washing bedding and hung them in the yard. When Yu Fuling heard that they were going to the Fahua Temple to burn incense, she seemed very excited. She seldom went out, even to the town market. Moreover, the Fahua Temple was extremely famous and very popular, so she thought it would be very lively.
Yu Jiao was a little uninterested. Temples were all the same, with just some Buddha statues for people to worship. She had her period, and although it was not a big deal, she felt a little uncomfortable. Yu Fuling said that Fahua Temple was halfway up the mountain of Chile Mountain, and she would have to climb the mountain, but she was too lazy to do that.
Knowing that Yu Qizhe was going to Fahua Temple to fulfill his vow, she went back to the east room to find Yu Qizhe and said, "You and Sister Fuling go to Fahua Temple to burn incense, and I won't go."
Yu Qizhe didn't expect that she would be unwilling to go, so he seduced her in a gentle voice, "Fahua Temple has beautiful scenery, is elegant and pleasant, and there are century-old twin trees in the courtyard. Many people come here because of its reputation. The vegetarian food in the temple is also very delicious. You have nothing to do at home, why not go out for a walk."
Yu Jiao was a little interested when Yu Qizhe mentioned the twin trees, but she gave up the idea of climbing the mountain. "I'm not feeling well. Sister Fuling said the Fahua Temple is halfway up the mountain, so I'd better forget it."
"Are you feeling unwell?" Yu Qizhe looked her up and down, then walked closer and asked, "Where are you feeling unwell? Were you tired last night?"
Yu Jiao showed a shy expression on her face, shook her head and said vaguely, "It's nothing, just rest for two days."
Yu Qizhe immediately said, "Then let's go to Fahua Temple in two days. You should take a good rest first."
Yu Jiao had no choice but to nod.
Yu Qizhe thought for a moment and then said, "There is a Master Huijue in Fahua Temple who is ill. I have a good personal relationship with him, and I would like to ask you to go and see him."
During the time she had been at Yu's house, Yu Jiao had never seen Yu Qizhe being friendly with anyone. But when she heard him refer to Huijue as "Master", she thought he must be a high-level monk.
"Since it's a medical consultation, we can go together tomorrow." Yu Jiao said.
Although Yu Qizhe was worried about Master Huijue's health, he was not in a hurry. As his senior brother Lu Jin said, Master Huijue was a good medical skill.
"You'd better wait until you feel better before going." Yu Qizhe felt sorry for Yu Jiao who had taken care of him yesterday and had not slept well the whole night.
Yu Jiao shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm fine, but I felt that the Fahua Temple was halfway up the mountain and I had to climb the mountain, so I was just being lazy."
Yu Qizhe didn't believe her, and was sure that Yu Jiao was not feeling well. After all, Yu Jiao had gone to the mountain to look for medicine for him before, and she had climbed the mountain in the rain. He didn't think that the mountain road to Fahua Temple would make her feel tired and want to be lazy. He made up his mind to go to Fahua Temple two days later.
After dinner in the evening, Yu Ruhai gave some silver to Yu Hanshan and asked him to open a pork shop. Although the quarrel with Yu Jiao two days ago made Yu Ruhai angry with the third wife, he could not bear Yu Zhou's pillow talk, and he also wanted to earn more money for his family, so he simply paid out the money from the public fund.
The next day, Yu Hanshan proudly called Yu Qiaoshan and Yu Mengshan to help him build a thatched hut at the intersection two miles away. People from nearby villages had to pass through that intersection to go to the town, and it was close to several nearby villages, so the location was very good.
Only then did the first and second wives realize that the old man had secretly given money to the third wife.
Song Chun and Yu Mengshan didn't have any opinion in their minds. The old man has always favored the third wife, and they were used to it. Moreover, as long as the third wife no longer had ideas about Yu Jiao's money, they would be satisfied. They didn't dare to say anything about the old man giving money to the third wife to open a pork shop.
Although Zhang was dissatisfied, she was persuaded by Yu Qiaoshan and did not cause any trouble.
But Zhao was a person who loved to show off. After cutting the two pieces of cotton cloth and satin given to her by Yu Zhou, she deliberately sat in the yard to sew clothes.
Zhang was so angry that she couldn't take it anymore. Zhao was still showing off, "Next month, the provincial examination will be held. Jinshu and Jinyan will take the examination. They must wear something bright and beautiful to be presentable. Before they take the autumn examination, I have to make two sets of long gowns. I can't take care of the work in the fields. Sister-in-law will have to work harder."
