Chapter 365 Cen Yunchu is Back
At the end of September, the chill was deep.

Wuqiu Temple outside the city is considered the most deserted among the many temples.

The gray mud tiles were covered with dead leaves, and a few jackdaws perched on the ridge of the roof, as dumb as wooden sculptures, and were frightened by a wild cat that jumped into the room and flew away.

Before the dense fog cleared in the early morning, a carriage approached with a black awning and thin horse, and the driver looked old-fashioned.

The carriage stopped in front of Wuqiu Temple, and a woman got out of the carriage.

She paid the fare to the old man, and the nocturnal spirit-like carriage disappeared into the thick fog again.

The woman was wearing a Taoist robe with a light veil covering her face, but she could still be seen to be tall.

The pair of eyes exposed outside the veil are lively and energetic, and it is conceivable that she should be a peerless beauty.

Holding a small package in her hand, she knocked lightly on the door of the nunnery.

After a while, someone inside opened the door.

The woman said a few words to the person who opened the door, and the person let her in.

The sun rose higher and higher, and the thick fog gradually dispersed.

When it was almost noon, a half-aged nun came out of the nunnery. She seemed to have something to do, and hurried into the city.

Generally, nuns go out for alms, but she didn't look sideways along the way, let alone talk to anyone, and came directly to the gate of Cheng Enbo's mansion.

"Where is the aunt? Our grandma has already said that you three aunts and six women are not allowed to enter the house. If you want to ask for alms, go to someone else's house." The doorkeeper saw the aunt coming and hurriedly chased her away.

"The poor nun didn't come here for alms," the aunt said and handed over a paper package, "A benefactor asked me to send something to the grandma in your house, and said that I must bring it."

"Who knows what you are? I'm afraid there is some kind of conspiracy behind you who hide your head and show your tail." The gatekeeper was not happy, "Go, go, don't play tricks here."

"Grandpa, you can do as long as you want. If you can't bring things in, can you tell me something?" The nun begged bitterly, "Just say that spring is here, the sky is warm, and the clouds are back."

The gatekeeper didn't want to go in to deliver a message, but he really couldn't resist the nun's begging.

So he said, "I can deliver a message for you, but if you blame me, you have to bear it."

"Don't worry, don't worry, if grandma is to blame, the poor nun will bear it all, and you will never be hurt." Seeing that the gatekeeper agreed, the nun was naturally very grateful.

The gatekeeper can't pass the message directly to Xu Chunjun, he can only tell the woman who passed the message to the second gate, let her go in and talk.

"What is this talking about? It has no beginning or end." The mother-in-law didn't understand why, "Isn't that man a lunatic?"

But even so, she went in to spread the word.

At this time, Xu Chunjun was listening to Mr. Zuo's report from the accountant, but the woman didn't dare to disturb her, she just waited obediently.

When the work on this side was over, she stepped forward and said cautiously: "Grandma just had a sister-in-law outside, and she insisted on sending a message in. She said that spring is here, the sky is warm, and the clouds are back."

Hearing what she said, Xu Chunjun immediately asked, "Who is that person? Let her in quickly."

The mother-in-law didn't expect the grandma to be so solemn, and hurried out to ask someone to bring the nun in.

"What's going on here? Why is it like a secret signal?" The porter was also at a loss.

The nun went to see Xu Chunjun, and no one knew what the grandma had said to her, because all the servants in the house had been sent out.

Later, the nun was sent away, but not through the front door, but through the back door.

In the afternoon of this day, Xu Chunjun left the mansion, saying that he was going to Huo's house.

It was true that they arrived at Huo's house, but after she went in for a while, Jiang Nuan also came out, and the two of them took a car and went out of the city directly.

The door of Wuqiu Temple was closed, but when the two of them got there, the door opened.

After Xu Chunjun and Jiang Nuan went in, they stayed for a long time.

It was not until the sun was about to set that the two of them came out of Wuqiu nunnery.

It seemed obvious that they had cried, but they were secretive, as if they were deliberately hiding something.

The carriage returned along the original road, first took Jiang Nuan home, and then returned to Cheng Enbo Mansion.

After another day or two, Xu Chunjun asked Jiang Nuan to go out of the city again, and this time they still came to Wuqiu Temple.

Others didn't pay attention to this matter, but the person hiding in the dark seemed to have glimpsed something.

The third lady was lazily lying on her side on the soft couch. In such a cold weather, she was only wearing a thin gauze.

Just because the room is warm and warm, it seems to be summer weather.

"What you said is true?" The third lady couldn't help sitting up after hearing the visitor's reply, and asked, "If you dare to lie to me, you know what will happen."

"Even if the villain has a hundred guts, he won't dare to lie to you." The person who answered was in his early twenties. He was thin and small, but he was full of tendons. After watching her for a long time, I didn't find any flaws. But after the nun went that day, she was obviously abnormal."

"It's better to be careful. If you keep an eye on it, you'd better be able to find out who is the person who lives in Wuqiu Nunnery." The third lady wore treasure-embedded armlets and a dozen particularly slender arms on her snow-white arms. The gold bracelet jingled at the slightest movement.

"The villain thinks it must be Cen Yunchu. After all, the nun said it when she sent the message. Spring is here, the weather is warm, and the clouds are back. This is obviously a secret signal!" The man said, "Besides, the Zheng family's Grandma doesn't believe in Buddhism.

She usually doesn't go into the nunnery of the temple, why did she suddenly invite the wife of the Huo family to go to the Wuqiu nunnery with little incense?

And I went there again and again, and every time I came out, there were traces of crying.Didn't you go to see an old friend? "

His words seemed to have touched some of San Niangzi's memories, making her stunned for a moment.

Then she smiled, and the look on her face made it hard to guess what was going on in her heart.

"Third lady, villain... But did you say something wrong?" The man began to feel a little scared.

This third lady is moody and ruthless, and they are all cautious around her.

"You did a good job, I don't mean to blame you. The thing I'm most upset about is that Cen Yunchu had disappeared when I came back. She is the person I hate the most. I want to bury her with my own hands! "The third lady narrowed her eyes, like a beautiful snake, ready to bite the neck of its prey at any time.

"Third lady, if it is true that Cen Yunchu is back, should we deal with her first, or follow the original plan?" asked the third lady's subordinates.

"There is no need to change the original plan." The third lady grabbed the pearls in the gold tray on the short table beside her, and then slowly let go of her hands, listening to the sound of the pearls jingling back into the gold tray, she said, "They owe me It's too much, I want to get it all back!"
