Xie Min was stunned after taking the tea, and immediately looked at Yining.
Few people knew she liked Snow Bud tea. She used to be a tea lover, but she'd been drinking less in recent years. Back when she'd been paying her respects to the old lady at the Marquis's residence, the youngest daughter-in-law, the fourth daughter-in-law, often made her own tea, but hers was Snow Bud. At the time, she'd been puzzled, wondering how the fourth daughter-in-law knew her preference.
Back then, the fourth daughter-in-law wasn't particularly outstanding, so she hadn't paid much attention to her. Because of this, she actually valued her a little more. Later, she gradually discovered that the fourth daughter-in-law was also quite intelligent, but she was just so smart that she didn't show it.
Yi Ning took a sip of her tea and looked up to see Xie Min looking at her.
"Mrs. Luo just picked out some snow buds for me, which turned out to be a lucky coincidence," Xie Min said. "I love drinking this."
It was just a subconscious action. Luo Yining sighed in his heart: "It would be best if Madam likes it."
Xie Min was a woman, and women's senses were very sharp. Yi Ning was just sitting next to her, but Xie Min looked at her with increasingly strange eyes.
Now that she knew why Xie Min had invited her here, Yi Ning didn't want to stay any longer. She stood up, said goodbye to Xie Min, and prepared to go back home.
Xie Min held her hand and said, "Mrs. Luo, don't move." Her voice was very soft. "I didn't lie to you just now. The moment I saw you, I felt a sense of familiarity. It was like we were friends who had known each other for many years. I wanted to talk to you."
Yi Ning said, "Madam and I have never met before, so I don't think there is much to talk about."
Xie Min smiled and said, "Mrs. Luo, you also call her Yining. My fourth brother, the now powerful Governor Lu, once had a first wife... also by this name, but he murdered her and she died before she was nineteen. You and her walk and talk very much like her."
Xie Min had been keeping an eye on Yi Ning. The more she watched, the more familiar her expression seemed to her. She was always distracted during a play, but her gaze would remain fixed on the stage. If the gongs and drums were too loud, she would frown, expressing her displeasure. And she always had something in her hands, playing with it out of habit.
She suddenly had an inexplicable intuition. Moreover, Buddhists always believed in reincarnation. If she had anything to do with that person, then what she said today was ridiculous.
Yi Ning said calmly, "That's really a pity."
"It's a pity. If she were still alive, with Lu Jiaxue's current status, she would have enjoyed endless wealth and glory." Xie Min said with a smile, "Now no one knows that Lu Jiaxue had a wife. He himself forbids his servants to mention it. I have become her murderer. But no one thinks that since I am already in such a high position, why would I kill her? Whoever benefits will be the one who kills her. Think about it, she is the more pitiful one, killed by someone close to her who was defenseless. I wonder if she will come back to avenge me if she is reincarnated."
"If she wants revenge, I will definitely help her." Xie Min's tone turned cold.
Xie Min hated Lu Jiaxue to the core, and Yining must have known it.
Does she want revenge? Is she no longer entangled with these people?
Yi Ning didn't want revenge. She lived a good life in this life. She had so many people who loved and cared for her. And that person was Lu Jiaxue. How could she stand up to Lu Jiaxue? Revenge was just asking for trouble, at least not right now.
Xie Min and she share the same suffering.
Yi Ning did not sit down, but turned her back to Xie Min and said, "Madam, the Deer Mother Sutra says: All love and affection are impermanent and difficult to last. Life is full of fears, and life is as dangerous as the morning dew."
"Madam, if you continue to dwell on the past, it will only hurt you and harm your body. It would be better for you to leave the Lu family and find a farm to live on. Live a peaceful and stable life there. Madam, you don't need to care about other grudges."
Xie Min's eyes lit up slightly. She'd only guessed earlier, thinking this person looked remarkably like that one. And since their ages matched, she began to think of him as a reincarnation. She often prayed to the Buddha, asking for Yi Ning's return to life, or at least for her to know the truth. Now, hearing her words, as if she knew something, she became agitated. "You... I never told you who I was. How did you know about the Lu family?"
Yi Ning smiled faintly, "Madam, please don't worry about it anymore. Second Miss Xie calls you aunt, and the only aunt I know of Second Miss Xie is Madam Lu. I'm only saying this because I see that Madam is feeling depressed and want to help her relieve some of the pressure. I have no other intentions. We are strangers."
"Besides, Miss Xie is already planning to marry someone else. Is it really a good thing to be deeply in love? Madam should persuade her."
"Wait a minute..." Xie Min stood up and said, "Just pretend I didn't say anything Yun'er said just now."
Yining had already opened the door and went out.
Xie Yun was actually waiting for her outside the door, and seemed to have been standing there for a long time.
"My aunt asked you to come because she couldn't bear to see me being wronged." Xie Yun said, "Don't embarrass her, or I won't let you go... Even if you don't care about Luo Shenyuan, you can't do anything to her."
They all want to be harmed so much. Does she look like someone who can bully others?
Yining was so angry that she almost laughed and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
Xie Yun said slowly from behind her, "Mrs. Luo, when I marry Cheng Lang, I'll be living next door to you. We'll inevitably interact, and maybe even become good friends."
"Then I can only wait for Miss Xie." Yining still smiled and said politely.
