The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife-Chapter 2158 - 2160: My Lady Wants to Become a Nun

"Thank you, Lord Marquis!"

Having seen off Assistant General Liu, Ye Zi’an stayed in the study for a long time, and then wrote a letter which was directly sent to the Capital City. These matters need to be investigated from that end. After staying in Zhejiang for a couple of days, he entrusted the silver and other valuables to Assistant General Liu for safekeeping, for an official handover to the people from Lingfu Prefecture.

As for the former Zhejiang Prefect and other officials, those who were to be sentenced have been sentenced, and the new Prefect will arrive soon.

Ye Zi’an was now preparing to go to Yunchuan.

Early the next morning, the group prepared to depart.

Just as the luggage was being loaded onto the carriage, Luo Linfei’s maid came knocking.

"Madam Ye, please convince my young mistress. Otherwise, if my mistress finds out, she’ll beat us to death."

Yang Chuxia looked at the young maid before her with some headache; it was the same maid who came to deliver the message last time, always crying and making a fuss.

"Madam Ye, we beg you, please save our lives."

"Stand up and speak properly." Yang Chuxia admonished, "What does it look like, crying at every turn?"

Yang Chuxia suddenly became serious, which frightened the maid, and maybe due to really feeling aggrieved, she started sniffling.

"Hasn’t your young mistress already left? How could she still be in the prefecture?"

"No, my young mistress did leave the prefecture, but not the prefecture boundaries." The maid wiped her tears and said, "My young mistress is about to become a nun at Fairy Cloud Temple outside the city. She will shave tomorrow."

"Madam Ye, Lord Ye, my young mistress cannot become a nun. We have secretly sent a message to the Capital City. If they come to learn that my young mistress has become a nun, we maids and guards will be doomed."

"The Luo Residence will certainly kill us; Madam Ye, we beg you, please persuade my young mistress. It’s just a bad experience with someone, why go to such extremes as to become a nun?"

Yang Chuxia exchanged a glance with Ye Zi’an, truly surprised that Luo Linfei would become a nun.

"Your young mistress has made up her mind, what can I do?"

Besides, she felt that becoming a nun wasn’t such a big deal and it might not be a bad thing for her.

"Madam Ye, my young mistress still has worldly ties, how can she become a nun?"

"How do you know she still has worldly ties?" Yang Chuxia smiled, this young maid was quite interesting.

"That’s what the abbess at Fairy Cloud Temple said." The maid replied, "That’s what the abbess said, but my mistress is set on shaving."

The maid knelt down again and pleaded, "Madam Ye, please, you must persuade my young mistress. We maids accompanying her will surely be punished, but if the mistress becomes a nun, not only will we be punished, we may lose our lives. Save us, please." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Yang Chuxia understood too; the maid’s final words were the crux of the matter.

"What to do?" Yang Chuxia asked Ye Zi’an.

"Fairy Cloud Temple is outside the city, we’ll pass by it when leaving the city. We can go and have a look. If she truly wants to become a nun, she might as well do it in the Capital City. Running away secretly, if something happens, she will have to take responsibility herself without implicating the others and causing panic, or even endangering lives."

"That works too."

"Thank you, Lord Marquis, thank you, Madam!" The maid was overjoyed upon hearing this.

"Dad, why haven’t I seen Uncle Ye Yi?" On the carriage, Lele lifted the curtain, noticing the absence of two people.

"Ye Yi left yesterday; he’ll meet us in Yunchuan later."

"Oh." Lele lowered the curtain and took out a book from the hidden compartment.
