With her reputation ruined and her family abandoned, You Xinyan's life on the estate was far from easy. Her food, clothing, and daily necessities were even worse than those of the former servants of the You family, and the old woman who took care of her was even more arrogant and domineering.
However, she blamed it all on Yang Cui!
You Xinyan was unwilling to see Yang Cui's reputation ruined.
So, early that morning, You Xinyan secretly changed into the old woman's clothes, got on the oxcart, and left the village.
Foguang Temple is located on Xianren Mountain in Huangtang Town. It takes at least an hour to get from the foot of the mountain to the top.
When You Xinyan arrived at the foot of the mountain, it was already late morning. She had left in such a hurry that morning that she hadn't brought anything with her and hadn't had time to eat anything. Now she was starving.
However, the thought of Yang Cui being sexually assaulted first and then raped filled her with extreme excitement. She was determined to see Yang Cui in such a miserable state and then mercilessly mock and humiliate her!
With her physical strength, she was exhausted by the time she reached the summit.
You Xinyan felt her feet were sore and aching, and she was trembling. She also had several blisters on the soles of her feet. However, she felt it was worth it in order to mock and ridicule Yang Cui and make a fool of herself!
It was already past 3:45 PM. She rested for a while, but she was so hungry that she wanted to find something to eat.
Yu Xinyan came out in a hurry and had no money, so she thought of asking her aunt, Madam Yu, for some money. Since she was already here, she believed that even if her aunt was unhappy, she would not drive her away.
But You Xinyan looked around and still couldn't find You Shi. Could it be that she was behind and didn't come up?
The distance from Wan'an County to here is not short at all, and with the added challenge of climbing to the top of the mountain, You Xinyan felt that they might still be down below and hadn't come up yet.
By this time, You Xinyan's stomach was growling with hunger. However, meals at the temple required donations, and while the temple could offer assistance if someone was truly in financial difficulty, You Xinyan had no right to tell them she had no money and wanted to eat and drink for free.
So she quietly went to the kitchen, and seeing that no one was there, she quickly grabbed two vegetarian buns and wolfed them down. After finishing them, she was still not full, so she quickly ate three more before she was finally satisfied.
Looking around and finding no one, he stealthily left.
She thought she had done something flawless, completely unaware that a pair of eyes were watching everything from the shadows, their sinister gaze ravaging her...
You Xinyan knew that people would come to Foguang Temple to offer incense, so after she finished eating, she went to the place where the worshippers offered incense to wait. But she waited and waited until dusk, and still did not see You Shi and Yang Cui.
Could it be that those people started the fight on the way? If that's the case, then it was Yang Cui who got into trouble, not her aunt. Why didn't her aunt come?
You Xinyan wanted to go down the mountain to find out what was going on, but it was already late and she had nowhere to stay after going down the mountain.
On second thought, I realized they might already be here, but I just haven't seen them yet.
Wan'an County is indeed quite far from here, and it's impossible to make a round trip in one day. So if they come, they will definitely stay overnight at Foguang Temple.
Filled with unease and doubt, You Xinyan decided to go and ask Master Jiechen, who was in charge of food and lodging.
You Xinyan had been here a few times before, so she was quite familiar with the place.
"Little master, I'm looking for Master Jiechen."
“Amitabha, please follow me, benefactor.”
The young novice monk led You Xinyan to Master Jiechen.
“Benefactor, this humble monk did not see Madam Yin.”
"Didn't see him? How is that possible? Did anyone else see him? Can you ask him for me?"
“Benefactor, this humble monk indeed did not see her, nor was Madam Yin among the pilgrims who are staying here today.” Madam You was the wife of the county magistrate and had visited before, so Master Jiechen had a deep impression of her.
"If Miss You doesn't believe me, you can go and see for yourself in the dining hall."
It was mealtime, and the pilgrims who had stayed overnight would gradually arrive at the dining hall. If You Shi and Yang Cui came, they would definitely go there.
Upon arriving at the dining hall, she happened to run into an acquaintance, Madam Sun, and inquired about the matter. Madam Sun told her that Madam You was unwell and therefore would not be coming. As for whether Yang Cui would be coming, Madam Sun was not familiar with her and therefore did not know.
Upon hearing this, You Xinyan's heart skipped a beat.
You should know that the You family organized this trip to Foguang Temple to establish a relationship with Yang Cui, but now they haven't seen Yang Cui, and their aunt isn't coming either. Doesn't that mean their plan has fallen through? All the suffering they endured has been for nothing.
"Oh, isn't this Miss You? Why are you dressed worse than my night soil collector?"
"How dare you compare yourself to someone who empties chamber pots?!" You Xinyan was furious, glaring at Tang Zhenzhen.
Yin Peipei, the girl next to Tang Zhenzhen, laughed and said, "I heard she wanted to steal a man from the famous Yang family, and even ruined their wedding day. You Xinyan, I never knew you were so shameless, tsk tsk..."
Tang Zhenzhen: "You're so thirsty, so eager for men, why don't I spend money to buy you a few, so you won't always be thinking about other people's husbands?"
"Hahaha..." the two girls burst into laughter.
After hearing these words, the other people in the canteen looked at You Xinyan with disdain and contempt.
Yu Xinyan was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes, but she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
Overwhelmed with shame and indignation, she tried to flee the scene.
Tang Zhenzhen, however, had no intention of letting her go and immediately blocked You Xinyan's path: "Why are you running? Come and tell everyone about your glorious deeds!"
"Tang Zhenzhen, don't go too far!"
"How did I go too far? Even if I went too far, I didn't covet someone else's husband, nor did I cause any trouble for them on their wedding day!"
The people in the canteen started talking amongst themselves, and You Xinyan really wanted to kill Tang Zhenzhen at that moment.
