Three days later, just after noon, the relatives of the eldest lady from the third house came to visit. When Li Yuxin received the news, it was already lunchtime.
The third wife came hurriedly to the main courtyard to find her. After sitting down, she took the tea from Nanfeng and drank three cups of tea before stopping to talk.
The third wife wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Sister-in-law, what should we do? The words of the Qingshan Temple master have come true. Sure enough, my relatives from my mother's side came to visit today."
Before Li Yuxin could add anything, the Third House's eldest lady said hurriedly, "I heard the other girl is very smart, and she's the type I'd choose when choosing a wife. Sister-in-law, do you think it's really impossible?"
Li Yuxin served a bowl of corn soup to the third wife and said slowly, "Sister-in-law, it's hard to say."
The third wife looked around, and Li Yuxin gave Nanfeng a wink, and Nanfeng and several people who served the meal left one after another.
The third wife came closer and said, "Sister-in-law, as the saying goes, it's better to believe than not. If it weren't for the master's comments, I would have definitely changed my mind."
Li Yuxin nodded without comment. The third wife continued, "Sister-in-law, do you want to meet that girl?"
Li Yuxin asked the Third Lady to drink some soup, but she waved her hand and said, "There's no point in eating right now."
Li Yuxin smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. If you're really curious and want to meet her, go ahead. Maybe after a while you can meet that girl at a banquet."
The Third Lady thought about it and agreed. She was no longer planning to have anything to do with that girl, so there was no need to meet her. The Third Lady suggested, "Sister-in-law, I've fulfilled the Master's words. I want to go fulfill my vow one of these two days. Why don't you come with me?"
Li Yuxin had to take good care of Sheng Wei recently and didn't want to go out, so she politely declined.
After the third lady finished speaking, she started to eat. After dinner, she stayed in the main courtyard to look after Hong'er and Yun'er, and helped the girls to divide their lines. She did not leave the main courtyard until dusk.
Li Yuxin thought of Sheng Zhuan's wife in her previous life. She was pretty, but her temper was really bad, and the children she taught also had bad tempers.
Li Yuxin didn't know whether she was harming or saving people. After the Third Lady left, she put down her needlework and sat in front of the window in a daze. It wasn't until Yun'er rushed to her side and grabbed her arm that she came to her senses. Li Yuxin looked at Hong'er, who was still sitting there embroidering with her head down, and decided to give up thinking about it.
The third wife's relatives came again the next day, but this time they left within half an hour. The next day, the third wife went to Qingshan Temple and came back to look for Li Yuxin.
The Third Wife's hands were busy, but her mouth was also busy. She talked about the master who interpreted their fortune last time: "Sister-in-law, I went to Qingshan Temple yesterday to fulfill my vow. In addition to adding 50% more incense money, I also planned to go find the master who interpreted our fortune last time. Guess what?"
Li Yuxin couldn't guess: "Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me."
The third wife looked as if she was about to ask something, but when she heard Li Yuxin ask her to, she told her what she knew: "Sister-in-law, that master actually passed away right after we left the temple."
Li Yuxin's heart skipped a beat, and she suppressed her thoughts: "Amitabha."
The third wife also said a Dharma name, and then said: "Ah, sister-in-law, isn't it such a pity. I was thinking of asking the master to help me figure out which family would be best for my daughter-in-law to marry, or to ask about the third master's future. What a pity..."
Li Yuxin nodded in agreement with the Third Lady's idea, but deep down she was shocked. That master was truly remarkable. Li Yuxin had previously asked Nanfeng to break the bad news of her marriage to the Third Lady, but she hadn't expected the master's comments to be true.
