Chapter 240 Misunderstanding from the beginning
Seeing that his master was angry, Bai Shao came over from behind and shouted, "What are you? How dare you frame our little lady?"
Shui Rong is neither humble nor arrogant: "Stop angry, I don't doubt you. I just think there is no need for the masters to do it yourself in a trivial matter like taking a bird's nest.
"The guards can't get in, so they can get those strong women to build a ladder and let them pick it up."
Cui Erniang looked stagnant, and she was right.
When Cui Hengyue saw Cui Erniang's expression, she felt that Shui Rong was thinking too much. Cui Erniang just wanted to ask her for help, not to hurt her.
"It's too slow to ask someone to come, so I'll help you get it."
Hearing this, Cui Erniang looked at Cui Hengyue with gratitude: "Sister--"
Cui Hengyue smiled at her and walked under the tree.
"Yuanniang, I'd better go and pick it up."
After Shui Rong finished speaking, she walked to the tree without waiting for everyone to react, grabbed the thick trunk and climbed up.
She was quick and climbed up the tree in a short while, which surprised Cui Erniang and others.
Madam Wen walked quietly to Cui Hengyue and asked in a low voice: "Shui Rong can't do martial arts?"
Although Shui Rong climbs a tree very fast, her movements are very clumsy, making people know at a glance that she knows how to do martial arts.
Cui Hengyue was silent, Shui Rong naturally knew martial arts, but she didn't show it.
Maybe I want to hide my strength and confuse my enemies.
Cui Hengyue moved her eyes quietly, and saw all the uneven and secret examinations.
The mansion was very calm these two days. She thought they should be secretly investigating her strength. After all, she stole Yuan Niang's identity as soon as she entered the mansion. They were afraid and dared not act rashly.
"Can you get a little bit."
After a while, Cui Hengyue slowly uttered three words.
Madam Wen was silent.
"ah--"
"careful--"
Shui Rong stepped on the air and her body quickly slid down, which made the people below scream.
Cui Hengyue opened her hands and was about to pick her up, but she saw Shui Rong grabbing a branch and her body was hanging in the air.
Cui Erniang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and shouted loudly: "Catch it steadily, I'll ask someone to save you right away."
He also ordered Bai Shao: "Go and ask someone to help."
"No." Shui Rong's voice came from above.
Shui Rong hangs the branches and swings hard. The next moment, her body falls steadily on the thick trunk.
She started climbing up again.
Cui Erniang was frightened and blurted out: "You come down, I don't want this bird's nest anymore."
Cui Hengyue looked at Cui Erniang. This little girl looked spoiled and arrogant, but actually had a soft heart.
She moved her heart and stepped forward and patted Cui Erniang on the shoulder: "Don't worry, she has been climbing trees and plucking bird eggs since she was a child and will not fall down."
The water lotus climbing the tree: "..."
She had never taken a bird egg.
After a moment of silence, she continued to climb up until she reached the branch where the bird's nest was. She carefully pulled the bird's nest down, held it in her arms, and then slowly went down.
Ping An fell to the ground, and Shui Rong held the bird's nest in her hands and went to Cui Erniang: "Look, are you still satisfied?"
Cui Erniang took the bird's nest and said, "Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied."
She stared at the four little birds in the bird's nest in a fluffy. When she looked at them, her heart instantly became soft.
"It's really likeable." Cui Erniang walked into the pavilion next to her with her bird's nest, placed the bird's nest on the stone table, and gently stroked the bird's feathers.
Cui Hengyue waved at the others and signaled them to retreat.
After Bai Shao and others left the pavilion, Cui Hengyue gently walked to Cui Erniang, leaned on the stone table like her, and reached out to touch the bird.
"Chirp..." The birds singed one after another.
Cui Hengyue's lips raised: "These little guys are really very popular."
"Yeah." Cui Erniang nodded and agreed, her eyes always stayed away from the bird.
Cui Hengyue turned her head and looked at her.
In the sun, her face was white and red, like a beautiful jade.
"Er Niang, do you go to Yunxuan Temple every year?" Cui Hengyue withdrew her gaze and asked casually while stroking the bird.
Cui Erniang didn't think much and immediately replied: "No, I haven't been to Yunxuan Temple before.
“But many people say that Yunxuan Temple is a wonderful temple, so I just want to go and see it.
"But, my mother didn't allow me to go, so I sneaked out of the house and followed them secretly last time."
Speaking of this, Cui Erniang suddenly pulled her hand back and said annoyedly: "In order not to let my mother discover it, I deliberately disguised myself.
"As a result, my mother had already seen through my identity, but she did not expose me and wanted to secretly catch me and send me back to her house.
"My mother is so bad..."
Cui Hengyue didn't hear the following words, and Cui Erniang's words kept echoing in her ears:
"My mother has long seen through my identity."
Cui Hengyue thought of that night, she followed Wutong and Xiuyun all the way, and overheard them saying, "I have seen through her identity long ago." At that time, she thought they were talking about her. Now it seems... maybe they were talking about Cui Erniang?
Cui Hengyue asked quietly: "You later appeared in Yunxuan Temple, which means that the eldest aunt caught you, but did not send you back to the house.
"I think you misunderstood my aunt..."
Cui Erniang was anxious: "I didn't misunderstand her, she was just unreasonable and arrogant.
"If I hadn't been smart that night and had escaped from the inn in time, I would definitely not have been able to reach Yunxuan Temple."
Cui Hengyue's eyes moved: "What's the name of the inn you mentioned?"
"Yunlai Inn in Mingyang Town."
Cui Hengyue froze all over.
It turned out to be Yunlai Inn?
At that time, she followed Mrs. Cui and lived in Yunlai Inn. She accidentally eavesdropped on Mrs. Cui and wanted to kill her.
After pondering for a moment, Cui Hengyue asked calmly again: "Why did you go to Yunxuan Temple later?"
When talking about this, Cui Erniang was a little proud: "I'm lucky.
"That day, my mother saved a little peasant girl, and I hid in her room.
"Although my mother has long seen through my identity, she doesn't know where I am hiding, she only knows that I am in that yard, so she ordered all the guards to guard outside the yard, trying to catch me.
"However, I found them. The little peasant girl ran away in the middle of the night, so I took the opportunity to run out."
Cui Erniang didn't notice that Cui Hengyue had changed her face. She smiled, and her eyes and eyebrows were full of pride:
"Although I was caught by the guards before I ran far, many people came to Mingyang Town that night.
"Ah Niang said that those people were the Regent and the King of Chu. They were catching fugitives. She was afraid that I would meet those people, so she simply took me to Yunxuan Temple."
After saying that, Cui Erniang raised her chin at Cui Hengyue, as if saying: Are you lucky?
Cui Hengyue suddenly understood her eyes and said, "I'm so lucky."
The birds chirped in my ears, but Cui Hengyue had no intention of listening.
Perhaps, that night, the "don't do it, no matter how much" she overheard was targeting Cui Erniang. Xiuyun and Wutong should mean "don't do it, no matter how much, just catch Erniang and send her back home", rather than killing her.
She misunderstood Mrs. Cui from the very beginning.
