Chapter 98: It's hard to fly even with wings

Caiyan opened the curtain and looked at the BMW car outside.

She glanced at the carriage in front and lowered the curtain, "Miss, you are so smart. There are so many people going to the temple today. If we don't wait outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, we may not even be able to find the Third Young Master today."

"That's right, if you don't even look at who your young lady is, she will be unable to fly today."

Jiang Jiaojiao specially put on a beauty makeup today. She used vermilion paste to draw a flower pattern between her eyebrows.

The carefully painted makeup is indeed different. She herself felt extremely beautiful.

"Caiyan, please be smart in a moment. Whether we can enter the Prime Minister's Mansion or not, success or failure depends on this."

Jiang Jiaojiao's words made Caiyan very excited. The young lady meant that she was going to take her to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be a dowry maid.

Then wouldn't she serve the young lady's uncle when it is inconvenient for the young lady?

After giving birth to a son and a half daughter, she will be treated as an aunt as a matter of course.

Thinking of being able to serve that gentle and jade-like young master, Caiyan blushed and her heart skipped a beat.

The carriage stopped, and Caiyan hurriedly took off the curtain hat from the carriage wall, "Miss, put it on quickly, Miss is right, seeing flowers in the mist is more attractive."

In the carriage ahead, Wei Mingzhou picked up the folding fan and shook it violently.

There is an ice basin in the carriage, and the wind from the fan is very cool.

He frowned slightly as he watched the sun rise outside.

"Master, I heard that there is a path halfway up the mountain to the main hall on the top of the mountain. The path is on the northwest side and cannot be exposed to the sun in the morning."

Wei Mingzhou gritted his teeth and jumped out of the carriage, "Come on, let's go back quickly. If we have time, we can go to Yicui Tower to listen to music when we get back."

Wei Mingzhou made up his mind not to go back too early today. If he went back too early, his grandmother would think his prayer was too perfunctory.

The coachman was waiting at the bottom of the mountain. Wei Mingzhou didn't care about meeting Du Yutong by chance, so he walked up the mountain road under the shade of a tree.

Jiang Jiaojiao and Caiyan were able to keep up with Wei Mingzhou at first. After a while, the figures in front of them quickly disappeared into the flow of people going up the mountain.

Jiang Jiaojiao was out of breath from walking. She looked forward and saw that there was still more than half the distance.

"Caiyan, my feet hurt and I really can't walk." Jiang Jiaojiao put one hand on her hips and shook the fan in the other.

The veil was cut by Caiyan, and the veil that barely covered her neck was fanned up. Her breasts were in full bloom, and people passing by frequently cast strange glances at her.

When the people passing by walked away, Caiyan suggested: "Miss, you see there are a lot of people offering incense today. Not to mention whether we can find Young Master Wei again, even if we meet him, it will be inconvenient to see so many people." strike up a conversation.”

Jiang Jiaojiao's spirits were lifted, "You mean we wait here?"

"Slave, look there is a fork in the road ahead, where should we wait."

"Good idea. There are so many people coming and going here, it's really not a good idea."

Thinking that she could see Wei Mingzhou without having to worry about climbing to the top of the mountain, Jiang Jiaojiao suddenly had a smile on her face again.

Arriving at the fork halfway up the mountain, Jiang Jiaojiao found a stone and sat down to rest.

Due to the drought, the bushes in the woods were not as lush as in previous years, and someone could clearly see someone passing by several feet away.

At this time, Wei Mingzhou had already reached the path on the side of the fork in the road.

How can a pampered young man be compared with a young man who runs around all day long?

Wei Mingzhou was walking so hard that his forehead was sweating, and the boy acted like nothing was wrong.

Wei Mingzhou saw a big stone on the side of the road and sat down. "I can't do it anymore. Let's take a rest before leaving."

The young man saw that the young master's fair cheeks were flushed, and he was gasping for air while sitting.

He bravely asked, "Master, are you just going to find a talisman, or are you going to see Master Huiyuan in person?"

"Your young master doesn't have bad luck, so why are you looking for that bald donkey? It's just a talisman to ward off evil spirits. Grandma will feel at ease after seeing it."

His aunt was in charge of the middle-class minister, and his monthly pocket money was fixed. However, the sinecure he received was very idle, and his salary was not enough for him to spend.

His aunt couldn't control the money at home, and he didn't dare to reach out to his father. If he did, he would be scolded.

Only grandma can coax someone to come out with three melons and two dates.

I have to take a talisman back today no matter what.

"Master, I have an idea. I wonder if the master thinks it is suitable?"

This guy has been following Wei Mingzhou for many years, and he always has bad ideas.

Before the boy could finish speaking, he put away the folding fan and waved his hand quickly: "No, I can't draw the talisman drawn by the bald donkey. Grandma is not easy to fool. She just took the yellow paper used to draw the talisman and smelled it. You’ll know if it’s true or false.”

"Master, that's not what I meant. Master can give me some sesame oil money and ask me to go up the mountain to get the talisman. There's no sun here, so Master can just sit here and rest."

"Good idea, take it, it's only ten taels. What you have left is up to you." Wei Mingzhou took out a piece of silver and threw it over.

The young man caught it quickly, laughing so hard that his mouth split to the base of his ears, "Don't worry, young master, it doesn't matter if you don't have any left. The young master usually rewards the little ones enough."

"Go back quickly, I'm already hungry."

"Hey! Master, wait, I will be back on time within two quarters of an hour."

The boy took the silver ingot and turned around, quickly disappearing on the mountain road.

At the fork in the road, Caiyan kept staring at the stone road going down the mountain.

After a quarter of an hour, fewer and fewer people went up the mountain.

After a while, no one came down the mountain. Caiyan said worriedly: "Miss, Mr. Wei won't spend the night on the mountain, right?"

"No, there are very few pilgrims staying overnight in Qinglian Temple."

…

Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, the servant returned and raised his hand, "Master, I got it. I only gave you five taels of incense money."

Occasionally, a gust of wind blew through the mountains, and Wei Mingzhou also breathed a sigh of relief.

He waved his hand generously, "Hurry up and put it away. The rest is your reward."

"Hey! Thank you, Master." The servant was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth and hurriedly put the talisman away.

In order to give only five taels of incense money, the servant went to the place where incense and candles were sold to exchange for small silver. In fact, he only gave two taels of incense money.

At the fork in the road, Caiyan's neck was sore from looking up, and Jiang Jiaojiao was waving a round fan calmly.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded not far away, and Caiyan and Jiang Jiaojiao looked towards the path at the same time.

"It's him!"

Jiang Jiaojiao quickly got up and adjusted her wrinkled skirt.

Seeing Wei Mingzhou getting closer and closer to her.

Jiang Jiaojiao's heart was beating wildly. She had thought of some words to pick up girls last night, but now she had completely forgotten them.

She heard the footsteps gradually becoming clearer, and her mind went blank.

Caiyan saw that the Third Master Wei was almost approaching the young lady, who was still nervously holding her round fan in a daze.

The mountain road was wide enough for two people to walk side by side. Wei Mingzhou saw a woman standing in the middle of the road and politely bowed, "Please make way, young lady."

Instantly, Caiyan pretended to slip and raised her hand to push Jiang Jiaojiao.

"Ah!"

"Young lady, be careful!"

Jiang Jiaojiao cried out, and the round fan in her hand flew out of her hand, and her body fell backwards.

Wei Mingzhou instinctively stretched out his hand and hugged her tightly.

As luck would have it, Jiang Jiaojiao had her back to Wei Mingzhou, and a big hand pressed right on a pair of soft breasts.

After helping the person in his arms up, Wei Mingzhou lowered his eyes and bowed his hands apologetically: "I'm sorry, young lady. I was in a hurry and I didn't mean to offend you."
