A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace Chapter 1411 - 1409: I Will Take Back Everything That Belongs to Me
Previously on A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace...
During the New Year season.
Compared to the bustling outside, the Blue Moon Pavilion here is much quieter.
Tan Biluo, dressed in plain clothes, looks at the gray and gloomy day outside with a face full of indifference and a heart filled with despair.
"It’s been a month! My cousin really hasn’t come to see me?"
The maid shook her head to indicate no.
She continued to look at the gloomy sky outside.
"It should snow soon!"
The maid sighed and stepped forward to persuade her.
"Miss, you’ve been sitting for a day now, take a break!"
Seeing Tan Biluo unmoved, she persuaded again.
"Master, don’t be sad anymore, it’s only half a year anyway!"
"During these six months, just take good care of your body, and when you come out, everything will get better!"
The maid repeated the same words day after day.
Tan Biluo listened impatiently.
"Alright, stop talking, can’t I just rest?!"
After speaking, she turned and lay back on the bed.
She now only stays in two places each day, one is the bed and the other is the chaise.
Bored and aimless, she muddles along every day like someone who’s lost their soul.
She lay on her side on the bed, looking at the already somewhat faded room, the hatred accumulated in her heart reignited once again.
"When I get out, I will definitely reclaim everything that belongs to me!"
The maid proudly cheered her on.
"Master is right!"
"I heard that despite the old madam’s several attempts to reconcile, Master Prince and Madam still don’t speak to each other!"
"It’s useless, I guess Master Prince is probably waiting for you!"
Tan Biluo was somewhat skeptical.
"You’re lying to me!"
"I heard that wretch is pregnant!"
The maid smiled mysteriously.
"Miss, don’t listen to those people talking nonsense!!"
"Just the other day, I saw Xiao Cui in Madam’s courtyard washing Madam’s underwear, with blood on it!"
Tan Biluo relaxed upon hearing this, then sarcastically commented.
"But... with the old madam trying to reconcile, even if it’s not true, it’s only a matter of time!"
"Miss, you shouldn’t say that!"
The maid proudly smiled again.
"I think our Master Prince is not such a ruthless person, just wait in peace!"
"In a few months, when the weather outside warms up and you come out, then..."
Tan Biluo nodded thoughtfully.
"Indeed!"
Even if she can’t be as favored as before, she should think about how to get revenge!
...
Moving on to Yilan’s side.
On the sixth day, the two made plans to go to the nunnery together.
Initially just trying to invite Wei Yu, unexpectedly, that girl hurried over in less than half an hour.
The two were unexpectedly delighted.
The three exchanged greetings and laughter before heading together to the nunnery to burn incense and worship Buddha.
This time, they went to a small temple in the city called Medicine King Temple.
Usually, those who come here to continue the incense are praying for their family’s health and longevity.
But for the three of them, it’s quite difficult to arrange a trip together, so where they go isn’t important.
Because of Yilan and Wei Yu, the three of them still took a carriage this time.
Inside the carriage, Wei Yu looked at the long-lost bustling crowd outside, feeling quite sentimental.
"It’s been so long since I’ve come out!"
Yue Er asked with a laugh.
"So what do you do at home?"
"Just read books, really." Wei Yu said somewhat begrudgingly.
Yilan replied.
"I heard Aunt Chen is also busy arranging a match for you, is there anyone you like?"
Wei Yu curled her lips sarcastically.
"What if I like them? What if I don’t?"
"If we’re talking about liking, I like everyone now. If we’re talking about not liking, I don’t like anyone in the world! It’s just about the mindset!"
Yilan: "..."
Yue Er: "..."
"Has this girl gone silly from being confined? Her words are puzzling!"
"Not silly, in fact, I hear a hint of Zen in it, Wei Yu, you wouldn’t really want to become a nun, would you?"
Yue Er looked at her in surprise.
Wei Yu smiled.
"So-called home is just a place to shelter from the wind and rain, whether it’s a humble abode or a grand pavilion, it’s merely a place to reside!"
"To me, there’s no difference!"
"So... how is there talk of leaving home or returning home?!"
Yilan couldn’t help but laugh, pointing at her and looking at Yue Er, amused.
"Oh dear, oh dear, this girl, she’s really gone silly!"
Yue Er smiled faintly, pondered for a moment, and spoke.
"She’s not silly!"
"To me, she’s reached a level that surpasses yours and mine!"
She looked at Wei Yu and said solemnly.
"If you really want to become a nun, and need help, you can tell me!"
"I can’t guarantee to make it happen, but I will certainly help!"
Wei Yu looked at Yue Er in shock.
"Are you serious?"
Yue Er laughed.
"Of course, is there any reason to doubt?"
Wei Yu smiled too.
"Indeed, you are Princess Yi Zhao, never one for empty words!"
Yilan, watching their back-and-forth interaction, seemed a bit baffled.
"Hey!"
"What are you two talking about? Can you joke about such things?"
Yue Er and Wei Yu both turned to look at her, saying in unison.
"Not joking!"
Yilan: "..."
Alright, as long as you’re happy!
She looked at Wei Yu with some concern, feeling vaguely uneasy.
Being a girl from a prestigious family, choosing not to marry but to become a nun.
This would bring shame to the family.
Of course, she doesn’t think becoming a nun is bad, she just feels sorry for Wei Yu.
"Do you know, once you take this step, you can’t go back, and... you’ll face things you’ve never known before!"
Wei Yu gritted her teeth.
"As long as I don’t die, I can!"
Yilan’s eyes immediately filled with respectful admiration.
"Good!"
"Since you’ve made your decision, as a friend, I will certainly support you to the end!"
There was a subtle flow of gratitude beneath Wei Yu’s calm gaze.
"Good! Thank you both!"
...
The Medicine King Temple is very small.
Yilan and Yue Er finished their worship and walked out, strolling around casually.
For them... perhaps the few red plum blossoms in the temple are more enticing.
Chen Wei Yu was different, she knelt with devout fascination before the statue, her whole person like a sculpture.
When she came out.
The two had already broken a few red plum branches and drank several cups of tea in the courtyard.
"Oh, you finally came out!"
Yilan smiled and handed over a cup of plain tea.
Wei Yu took it, drank a sip, and smiled.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, once I knelt there I felt the whole world was peaceful, I really like that feeling, I think..."
Yue Er interrupted her with a smile.
"Alright, alright! As long as you’re happy!"
"Although your character has changed greatly over these two years, I think it’s quite good!!"
"It’s just that it’s getting late, I should be going back!"
"My mother asked me not to return too late today, so I can’t accompany you both any longer!"
"Hmm, then you should hurry back!"
Yilan and Wei Yu nodded, and the three parted ways.
