Yu Chi didn't notice Zhao Luoning in Siyu Nunnery.
It turned out they were here to send someone to become a nun.
This development left everyone confused.
Yu Chi lifted the curtain of the carriage and helped Chen Chuliu get out.
Of course, Zixin couldn't let them in. She flicked the whisk in her hand and said, "Sorry, benefactor. Please forgive this poor nun for being unable to help."
Yu Chi never expected that they would be rejected when sending someone to become a nun.
Yu Chi asked bluntly, "What? Is there anyone the Buddha can't convert?"
Zixin raised her hand and made a Buddhist gesture.
"Sorry, benefactor. Our nunnery is already full, and we have no plan to take in new people for the time being."
"Well, that's easy. Our master will offer enough money for the incense."
In Yu Chi's view, adding one more person was just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks. Adding more money for the incense, the nunnery shouldn't refuse.
Saying that, Yu Chi was about to take out the money.
Seeing this, Zixin got a bit angry.
"This benefactor is really interesting. I've already said we won't take in new people. It's really ridiculous for you to try to overpower us with money."
Yu Chi was completely at a loss after being scolded.
Chen Chuliu never thought that she would be disliked even when coming to a nunnery. Feeling annoyed, she said, "You won't let me in? I'll go in anyway. I'd like to see what kind of Buddha is enshrined in this nunnery that's so precious!"
As soon as Chen Chuliu finished speaking, the gates of Siyu Nunnery opened wide, and a row of young girls walked out.
There were only Yu Chi and Chen Chuliu, so they were immediately at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.
However, Chen Chuliu was completely oblivious to the situation.
She had suffered humiliation in the Chen family and the Ji family. There was no way she would accept being looked down upon in a nunnery.
The two sides were at a stalemate.
Qiu Ling quickly found out what was going on outside and told Zhao Luoning at once.
Zhao Luoning got even angrier after hearing this.
Ji Shisu must have done this on purpose, using Chen Chuliu to disgust her!
"Qiu Ling, pack up your things."
Qiu Ling looked hesitant at Zhao Luoning's order.
"Miss, your health has just improved a bit. If you..."
Mrs. Zhao also tried to persuade her.
"Yes, Luoning. If Ji Shisu really knew you were here, he would have already come with people. You don't need to worry too much."
"It's unreasonable for the nunnery to reject visitors. Even if Ji Shisu hasn't noticed yet, he will soon."
Zhao Luoning ordered Qiu Ling without any room for negotiation.
"Move!"
Zhao Luoning wasn't the only one who thought of this.
Zhao Luoyu had only walked a few steps when she saw Yu Chi helping a woman get out of the carriage.
A woman? Not Ji Shisu?
Moreover, the carriage stopped in front of the nunnery. It seemed they weren't coming for them.
So they were here for Siyu Nunnery.
No, she had to find a way to help her sister.
She had to cause some trouble for Ji Shisu.
In the Incense Pavilion of the Ji Mansion
A maid was helping Mrs. Ji fix her hair. Halfway through, Zhao Luoyu walked into the room uninvited.
Mrs. Ji had never really liked this daughter - in - law.
After learning that she was the third daughter of the Zhao family and Zhao Luoning's younger sister, she disliked her even more.
When she knew it was Zhao Luoyu coming in, she didn't even lift her eyelids, just ignoring her as if she were air.
Zhao Luoyu naturally knew that Mrs. Ji had a grudge against her, but thinking of her mission, she endured it.
Zhao Luoyu greeted Mrs. Ji and then stood respectfully by the side.
She didn't know if the maid doing the hair was deliberately stalling.
Zhao Luoyu waited for almost half an hour.
By the time Mrs. Ji finished grooming, Zhao Luoyu's legs were numb.
Only then did Mrs. Ji speak in a sarcastic tone.
"Why do you have the time to come to me today?"
Zhao Luoyu had already cursed Mrs. Ji's ancestors countless times in her heart, but on the surface, she had to force a smile.
She bowed and scraped, looking like a perfect submissive daughter - in - law.
"Luoyu knows she shouldn't bother you, but I'm really unsure about something. I'd like to ask for your advice."
Zhao Luoyu's humble and submissive attitude, as well as her "eagerness to learn," really pleased Mrs. Ji.
Mrs. Ji had never felt so needed before, and she really enjoyed it.
Although on the surface she remained unmoved, she didn't order Zhao Luoyu to leave.
The maids were also very good at gauging the situation.
Seeing that the two of them seemed to have a lot to talk about, they set up chairs and tea and then left on their own.
"If you have something to say, don't beat around the bush. Just say it."
Zhao Luoyu knew that her words had worked. Regardless of her dry throat, without even taking a sip of tea, she told the whole story.
"A few days ago, when the younger uncle and the elder brother were chatting, I clearly heard that the younger uncle intended to move out. He even asked my elder brother from my natal family if there was any vacant house."
Ji Shisu had indeed asked Zhao Luochun if there was any vacant house.
Of course, it wasn't to buy a house. He just wanted to find out about Zhao Luoning's whereabouts.
It was so easy for Zhao Luoyu to frame Ji Shisu.
Ji Shisu wanted to move out of the mansion?!
Mrs. Ji was so angry after hearing this that she was fuming.
She slapped the table, not caring that the tea had spilled all over the place. She asked Zhao Luoyu, "Is this information true? This unfilial son. Let me see how I'll teach him a lesson."
"Of course, I heard it clearly, but madam, actually, I think it's not a bad thing for the younger uncle to move out."
Mrs. Ji didn't expect Zhao Luoyu to say this. She was just about to scold her when Zhao Luoyu continued.
"Madam, think about it. There can only be one future head of the Ji family. My husband is magnanimous. He once told me that he was willing to give up the position of the head of the family."
Ji Shijun was Mrs. Ji's own son. Hearing what Zhao Luoyu said, her eyebrows twitched, and she almost slapped the table again.
Back then, because Ji Shijun was missing, Mrs. Ji had no choice but to recognize Ji Shisu as the head of the family.
But since Ji Shijun came back, she had always wanted Ji Shisu to give up the position.
All the actions against Zhao Luoning back then were also part of her plan to bring down Ji Shisu.
Mrs. Ji had never told anyone these things.
Mrs. Ji knew very well that the reason why the Master Ji had come to her room occasionally in recent years and treated her a bit better was just because she had helped raise that fox's son.
Now, her own son was going to give up the position of the head of the family. Of course, Mrs. Ji was angry.
"Absurd! The position of the head of the family has always been passed down according to ancestral teachings. How can he just give it up with a single word?"
Zhao Luoyu knew that Mrs. Ji was gradually falling into her trap. She was secretly laughing in her heart, but on the surface, she still had to put on a troubled expression.
Her tone was also full of worry, looking like a woman who was really worried about her husband.
"I also advised my husband like this, but madam, you know my husband's temper. If things go on like this, he will surely offend the old matriarch again. I'm really in a dilemma. Just then, the younger uncle voluntarily proposed to move out, which can solve this problem and save you and the old matriarch from the trouble of deciding the position of the head of the family. I'm just wondering how the rewards the younger uncle got from the emperor should be distributed."
Zhao Luoyu added fuel to the fire, not afraid of making things worse.
