Chapter 398 Intelligent Child

Jia Wei looked at her for a while, wondering why there was a little nun in this temple, so he walked forward.

When the little nun saw people coming, she quickly stood up and performed the Buddhist ritual.

She looked up again and saw Jia Wei, a dashing man. Although he was dressed in mourning, he still looked elegant and noble. She couldn't help but feel weak and her face was stunned.

Seeing her foolish look, Jia Wei couldn't help but laugh.

Although the little nun had a childish face, she was very tall and charming, with a pair of big, watery eyes that were lively and cute, and her loose black robes were filled to the brim.

Jia Wei looked her up and down, and couldn't help but have some thoughts.

"Where are you from, and why are you here?"

When the little nun saw that he was in mourning clothes, she knew that he was the master of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. She bowed again and said, "Sir, I am from Shuiyue Temple and I am waiting for my master here."

"Suigetsu-an?"

Isn't that the Mantou Temple? It was given this nickname because the steamed buns made in the temple are delicious. The Shuiyue Temple is not far from the Tiekan Temple.

When Jia Wei heard that it was the sister-in-law from Shuiyue Temple, he knew who the little nun was and asked, "Are you Zhineng?"

The sister-in-law was surprised, "Your Excellency knows me?"

Jia Wei smiled and made up a lie: "I am Xichun's brother. I heard her talk about you."

Miss Xichun’s brother? Zhineng was stunned.

Shuiyue Temple was on good terms with the Rong and Ning mansions, and Zhineng'er also frequently visited the Jia mansion, so she naturally knew the masters of the two mansions.

Speaking of Xichun's brother, the former Ningguo Mansion master Jia Zhen has fallen into disgrace, and only the current Marquis of Yong'an is left.

This young man is actually the famous Marquis Yong'an!

Zhineng'er immediately knelt down on both knees: "Greetings to the Marquis..."

Jia Wei served her condescendingly. This smart girl had a slender waist and extremely plump breasts, an hourglass figure, a typical slender woman with a plump figure.

Zhineng was wearing a loose black robe that wrapped around his round little pig.

From Jia Wei's perspective, he could actually vaguely see the house layout.

But Jia Wei was not a man who would be blinded by lust, so he smiled and said, "Don't you know me? Get up."

Zhineng stood up in a hurry, not daring to reply to his teasing. She lowered her head for a moment and saw Jia Wei's tall figure with a jade belt and sachet on his waist, which made her feel that he was even more extraordinary.

"You are waiting for your master. Where is your master?"

Jia Wei frowned slightly. He vaguely remembered that Zhineng'er's master was also a bad guy.

Shuiyue Temple, like Tiekan Temple, is a place where filth and corruption are lurking. The nun Zhitong is a kidnapper, and Zhineng's master Jingxu has been taking advantage of the power of various families to take on lawsuits, commit murder and robbery, and do all kinds of bad things.

It was Jingxu who conspired with Wang Xifeng to break up the marriage between the Chang'an garrison commander and the girl from the Zhang family for two thousand taels of silver, causing the two to die for love.

In Shuiyue Temple, Zhineng is the only one with a simple mind and has never done anything bad.

Zhineng lowered his head and answered, "My master went to see your wife. She was afraid that I would not know the etiquette and offend her, so she asked me to wait for her here."

Jia Wei made a rough guess that after he disciplined Wang Xifeng, she would definitely not dare to take on these lawsuits again.

Now that their family has gone to Tiekan Temple to perform a ritual, the nun Jingxu must be thinking that the power of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion is far greater than that of the Rongguo Mansion. If he cooperates with Baochai and Daiyu, he will definitely be able to make a lot of money by leveraging the power of the Marquis's Mansion...

But Jia Wei also thought that Baochai and Daiyu were both smart and kind women, and would never be bewitched by Jingxu, so he was not in a hurry for the time being.

Just wait until he has some free time, and then send someone to destroy the Shuiyue Temple. Now Jia Wei looked at Zhineng and said with a smile: "What are you sitting here waiting for? I'll take you in to play with Xichun."

How could Zhineng dare to disobey the order? He quickly replied, "Yes." Then he followed Jia Wei and went in.

Jia Wei found a clean room and ordered someone to call Xichun over.

Xichun is the daughter of Jia Jing, so of course she knelt before the coffin to pay her respects. However, she grew up with Lady Jia and was born with a lonely, cold, and resolute personality. Of course, she did not feel sad at all when Jia Jing died.

She was just enduring a hard time, so when she heard Jia Wei calling her, she was of course happy to go.

"Second brother."

"Come here," Jia Wei waved with a smile, "look who this is."

When Xichun saw Zhineng'er, she didn't react much, as she was a cold person by nature.

When Ruhua made a mistake during the search of the Grand View Garden, Wang Xifeng forgave her, but Xichun insisted on driving her away.

Xichun is still young and her situation is much better now. Although she is not so ruthless, her personality is also very eccentric.

Only because Jia Wei took her from the West Mansion to raise her and occasionally cared for her did Xichun develop feelings for this second brother. As for Zhineng'er, her playmate, he was no different from a stranger.

But Jia Wei asked her to play with Zhineng, so Xichun pulled Zhineng to talk. She always listened to Jia Wei, and it was better to play with Zhineng. She knelt in front of the coffin...

The two girls chatted with each other, and Jia Wei occasionally interrupted.

He knew that Zhineng was forced to become a monk, and that calling Buddhism a "prison pit" was also an intentional collusion.

Since Zhineng'er wanted to escape from this prison, Jia Wei was willing to help her...

After half an hour, Jia Wei told Xichun to go back, saying that she, as a tool, had completed her mission.

Now that Zhineng is older and knows about romantic matters, seeing a man as romantic as Jia Wei, it is inevitable that she fantasizes about him and likes him. So she keeps her head down and dares not look at him.

Zhineng'er's face was originally rosy, and after being teased by Jia Wei, it became even hotter.

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhineng stood up and said goodbye: "My Lord, I have to go back. If Master can't find me, he will scold me again."

Jia Wei grabbed her sleeve and said, "I have already sent someone to tell your master to leave you to chant sutras for the women in the mansion. Your master left long ago."

Zhineng was stunned. "I am not very knowledgeable. How can I chant sutras for you nobles?"

Although she knew a little about romantic matters, she had never seen the methods a man used to coax others, and for a moment she naively thought that Jia Wei really wanted to keep her to chant sutras.

Jia Wei smiled and said, "That was just to coax your master. I'm bored staying in this temple, so I'll leave you here to play with me."

As he spoke, Jia Wei took Zhineng'er's hand and pulled her in front of him.

Jia Wei made his words so clear that Zhineng knew what he meant. She was startled and speechless.

Facing a little nun, Jia Wei certainly didn't need to play any tricks or schemes, he could just bully her.

"I see you like it very much. You should stay with me today. Tomorrow I will write to Shuiyue Temple and ask you to come to the Marquis' Mansion."

When Zhineng heard this, she was stunned for a moment, feeling ashamed and frightened!
Being able to escape from the prison of Shuiyue Temple would have fulfilled her wish, not to mention entering the Marquis' Mansion. It was simply a great thing, like pie in the sky!

But she had only known Jia Wei for half a day, and she was reluctant to serve him...

Zhineng didn't know whether she was happy or scared. She felt like she was dreaming. She wanted to say something, but thinking of Lord Jia Wei's noble status, she didn't dare to say no.
