There were many monks in the temple, and they quickly found the location of Taoyuan.
In addition, there was an unexpected gain, a naked man.
"Brother, what should we do now?" The younger brother looked at this eye-catching scene, at a loss as to what to do.
The one being called Senior Brother had lived in the temple for many years and had never seen such a situation before. However, seeing that the two were still sleeping, he said, "Let's wake them up first."
After counting one, two, three, the monks shouted in unison, "Two donors, wake up!"
Such a powerful voice immediately woke Yin Hong up. When he opened his eyes, he saw a bunch of shiny heads and his own shiny body.
"ah!"
Yin Hong turned around with his legs clasped together, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw the woman lying on the ground.
At first he thought it was Yun Man, until the woman pointed at him and screamed, he realized that he had mistaken her for someone else.
...
The news that Prince Yin had an affair with a maid from the Yun residence in the temple spread throughout the capital immediately. In order to quell the rumors, it could only be said that Tao Yuan had already been given to Yin Hong as a concubine, so there was no harm in getting close to her in advance.
But it was not a glorious thing after all. The lady was so angry that she had heart pain, let alone Yun Xuelan.
"Bang."
Another vase smashed to the ground, breaking into pieces.
"Bitch!" Yun Xuelan cursed at the pile of broken porcelain pieces. "I was wondering why Brother Yin Hong wasn't here yet. Turns out that bitch got in the way. How dare she step on me to get to the top!"
She wanted to marry Yin Hong not only for his wealth and status, but also because she had long admired him. Now that the man of her dreams had been snatched away by Tao Yuan, how could she not hate him?
In her anger, she dropped the teacup in her hand to the ground, "Whore!"
Green Branch beside her carefully advised, "Calm down, young lady. That lowly maidservant in Taoyuan is only going to be a concubine. If you marry into the family, she will be the Crown Prince's consort. That lowly maidservant will definitely not dare to compete with you for supremacy."
Yun Xuelan reluctantly agreed with Luzhi's statement and threw the wrinkled handkerchief in her hand aside.
It seems that we need to hurry up and send Yunman to Prince Chai's mansion.
Coincidentally, a maid came outside the door and reported that Cousin Lu had come and wanted to see Yun Xuelan.
Yun Xuelan said impatiently before she finished listening, "No, you want to see me, considering your status as a poor young lady? You're really a toad wanting to eat swan meat."
Luzhi agreed, "Miss, you are right. You are about to start discussing marriage. If you are entangled with your distant cousin, it will be bad if the news gets out."
Yun Xuelan murmured, "I'm entangled with my distant cousin..."
She suddenly smiled and said, "Since Cousin Lu is here, I have to see him. Go and tell him I'll be there soon."
...
July scorching heat
Without air conditioning, they could only use ice cubes to keep cool. When Xiaochun went to get some ice, the old woman in charge rolled her eyes.
"There's only so much ice. We have to give it to the master and mistress first. The rest has to be shared among the brothers. Didn't the eldest girl have ice when she was in the countryside? I guess she's used to it."
Xiao Chunbing didn't get it, but was ridiculed instead, so he went back angrily.
Back in the house, Xiaochun felt sorry for her daughter and kept fanning Suman.
Seeing her sweating profusely, Su Man stopped her and said, "Don't fan her anymore. Ask someone to fetch some well water and find a few more basins to fill and put them in the house."
Xiaochun asked curiously, "What is this for?"
Su Man waved her fan twice. "Well water is cool and is the best way to neutralize the heat."
After giving the order, Xiaochun came back and said, "It will take a while to fetch water. It's really hot and stuffy in this room. How about I help you take a walk in the garden?"
Although Master Yun is only a sixth-rank official now, his ancestors have been officials for generations, so his mansion is still very luxurious. There is a rain-viewing pavilion for enjoying the rain and a summer pavilion for avoiding the summer heat. The small garden is also lush and green, with a new scene at every step. There is also a waterside pavilion and lotus pond, which is indeed a holy place to cool off.
So the master and servant tidied up and went out, enjoying the flowers and playing with the birds, which was very pleasant.
It wasn't until I passed by the rockery that I heard someone talking.
"Is the poem finished?" a woman's voice sounded.
"I've finished it. Since my cousin wants to read it, I naturally worked day and night to finish it."
"That's it. I'll go back and give it to the girl later."
The man said with concern, "If such obscene words were discovered, my cousin's reputation would be ruined. Sister Luzhi must be careful."
"Of course, Master Lu, don't worry. I will keep it safe and won't let anyone see it."
"Hey, sister Luzhi, take care."
Luzhi came out from behind the rockery first, looked around vigilantly, and left in a hurry.
After a while, a man who looked like a scholar flashed out from behind. He had a handsome face but looked shabby.
The shadows of the trees were swaying where Su Man and Xiao Chun were hiding, and they did not notice them.
After they all left, Xiaochun said, "Isn't that Lu Shusheng?"
This Lu scholar was a distant relative of Master Yun. As the imperial examination was approaching, he came to stay at the Yun residence. After a few visits, he fell in love with Yun Xuelan.
A talented man and a beautiful woman is a beautiful story, but this Lu Shusheng comes from a poor family. Not to mention Yun Xuelan, even Master Yun looks down on him.
Back then, Yun Xuelan had accused Yun Man of having an affair with Lu Shusheng. Furious, Master Yun had Yun Man sent to the Chai Prince's mansion to be his mistress. Poor Lu Shusheng was beaten and thrown out of the Yun residence. Unaware that he was being framed, he drowned himself in shame and anger.
Later, this article of Lu Shusheng was circulated, and everyone felt that he was a talented person, but it was a pity that he was obsessed with love and ruined his life.
Xiaochun looked at the direction the two left and asked in confusion, "Why is Lu Shusheng here with Lu Zhi, who is beside the second lady? Could it be the second lady and Lu Shusheng?"
