For some people, once things are over, they are over; for some people, it is just the beginning.
Weng Hui turned around and glared at Shu Xin and Mei Ruolan fiercely. Now she was not strong enough to deal with Yuan Zhixi, but she felt that dealing with Shu Xin was a piece of cake.
Annoying people are like stones in the way, they have to be kicked away one by one, so let’s start with making ourselves feel comfortable.
Over there, Old Lady Mei gave Mei Hexiao a new name according to the Yin generation. From then on, Mei Hexiao was called Mei Yinxi, and was registered under the name of his biological mother Ma Jingling.
Since Jin Huanlan had been beaten to death, Mei Yinshan's name was no longer changed and was still named after his stepmother, indicating that he was adopted.
Old Madam Mei had already revised the family tree and informed the elders of the Mei family of the situation. She planned to open a clan temple and revise the family tree. The date was set for when Mei Yinxi regained consciousness, and by then the people from the second branch would have almost returned.
Finally, Mrs. Mei advised Ma Jingling, "That piece of jade has a great origin, so let Mei Yinxi wear it."
Ma Jingling said, "Yes. But my wife has heard that jade can sense human emotions. After taking it from Yinshan, should we find a master to dissolve the jade before giving it to Yinxi?"
Old Lady Mei said, "I'm afraid that an ordinary master's ordinary rituals wouldn't be able to suppress this piece of jade, so there's no need to do any useless work to dissolve it."
As they were talking, the doorman came in to announce, "A monk and a little kid are outside. They want to see the jade on our eldest son of the headmaster's family."
Old Lady Mei was puzzled by what she heard, and thinking that the jade was not ordinary, she asked, "Please come in and sit down first."
The doorman reported: "Because I saw that he was a monk, I was afraid that he was a high monk who was adjusting the five elements recently. I have invited him, but he refused to come in. He said that there was no such great affinity. He just had an old connection with this jade and left after taking a look."
After hearing this, Mrs. Mei felt even more puzzled and asked Ma Jingling to take the jade and go to the door with her.
Sure enough, a great master appeared, his appearance a Buddha, his robes flowing. Old Lady Mei bowed and said, "Master, would you like to take a look at this jade?"
The Buddhist disciple took a step back, and a little pink ball-like baby came forward and tiptoed to take the jade from the old lady's hand.
The little kid asked, "Long time no see?"
The jade piece glowed with spiritual light. The little kid continued, "Your master has come down, but he might not remember you now."
The jade glowed brightly, and Mrs. Mei and Ma Jingling were shocked by the sight.
The little kid saw it and said, "You should stay in the Mei family for this life. There will be a chance to become a perfect couple in the future and accompany your master."
The jade glowed again after hearing this, and the little kid could only say, "I am to blame for what happened up there, but this may also be your chance. Everything has its own destiny and is caused by cause and effect.
I came here specifically to see you. Now that I've told you the news about your master, you can just relax and be at ease."
The jade's radiance gradually faded, but it looked more transparent and lustrous than before.
The little kid placed the jade in the old lady's hand, took a step back and hid behind the Buddha's disciple.
The Buddhist disciple could only bow politely and said, "Sorry for disturbing you. I'll take my leave now."
Old Madam Mei recovered from her shock. While returning the greeting to the Buddhist disciple, she suddenly had an idea and said to the two of them, "You two masters are unwilling to come in for a cup of tea. I have prepared some food. Would you like to take it with you?"
Just as the Buddhist disciple was about to decline and leave, a little pink-ball-like child appeared from behind and said to Old Lady Mei with a smile, "That's great! I love meat."
When the Buddhist disciple and the little kid left, each of them had an extra backpack, one large and one small, with food boxes of all sizes neatly placed inside.
The Buddhist disciple lowered his head, feeling ashamed to face others. The little kid, with his head held high, was in high spirits, eating a box of exquisite snacks. "What's the big deal? Don't you monks also beg for alms? Besides, I gave the Mei family a healthy eldest son and grandson, so some food is not bad. Why are you so dejected? Does eating these mean you lose your merits?"
The Buddhist thought that Mrs. Mei was a smart woman. She knew that they would definitely not accept gold, silver or other valuables, so she sent them some food instead.
It doesn't damage his merits, but it damages the reputation of such a great master.
After thinking for a while, he asked the little kid, "What have you done to offend that piece of jade?"
The little kid said, "I accidentally dropped a piece of jade from that person, and it broke into two pieces, one large and one small. The piece that belongs to the Mei family is the small one that fell off."
The Buddhist disciple said, "But it looks like a complete piece of jade, round and smooth."
The little kid said, "After this spiritual jade fell, it became two pieces. If they touch each other again, they can be combined into one again." He took another bite of the dessert. It was really delicious.
The second branch of the Mei family finally arrived at the Plum Garden. Yuan Zhixi was busy sorting things out in the yard, while the children were already happily wandering around.
With Yuan Zhixi taking care of things, soon after Weng Hui entered her own yard, she dragged Mei Xuanqi, the second master of the Mei family, to go for a walk in the garden.
Shu Xin, on the other hand, stayed to help Yuan Zhixi. She was grateful to Mei Yinzhi for helping Mei Ruolan.
The work was almost done, so Yuan Zhixi asked Shuxin to go back to her yard to wash up and rest for a while. The journey was bumpy and tiring.
Yuan Zhixi gathered all the servants in the Plum Garden, roughly counted their number and recognized their faces. Because so many masters came at once, she readjusted the number of people working and the assignments to each courtyard.
Finally, Yuan Zhixi returned to her own yard to freshen up.
Not long after, a commotion was heard in Weng Hui's yard. Someone came to report that Weng Hui and the second master had been strolling in the garden. After returning, Weng Hui found that she had lost something and started making a fuss.
