At noon, Qin's mother appeared. At that time, Chu Xinyu came back from the release pond and was instructing Danqing and Lan Yi to pack up his things in the West Courtyard.

There were not many things, Lan Yi packed it up in a few seconds.

Mama Qin seemed to have not known that she had already paid her wish and said apologetically: "Miss Five, I'm really sorry. There are too many people coming to the temple to burn incense, and the road is narrow and difficult to walk. It has been delayed for some time. Let's have lunch first before going to fulfill the wish?"

Chu Xinyu said cheerfully: "No problem, you go to have a meal, we'll go down the mountain first."

Mama Qin looked at her in surprise, "Are you... not fulfilling your wish?"

"It's over."

Chu Xinyu couldn't help but feel funny. Did Mama Qin think she was too self-righteous? After what happened last night, would she still stand there and wait stupidly?

Return it? Mama Qin was stunned. Why didn’t the fifth girl wait for her? Isn’t her wallet worth no silver? Where did she get the silver to buy the offerings?

In fact, this is not because of Qin's conceit. She believed in Xiangmei too much and underestimated Chu Xinyu's IQ.

It turned out that Xiangmei didn't prepare the offerings for Chu Xinyu to fulfill her wish. She was very confident that Chu Xinyu would fall into a trap last night. Since that's the case, do you still need to prepare the offerings?

However, when the plan failed, she told her mother Qin that she had not prepared offerings for the fifth girl, and when they went out to digest food, she had already arranged for someone to lead the painting away and enter the wing room to exchange the silver from the fifth girl's purse with stones.

She was thinking that as long as the fifth girl was prevented from returning to the house today, it would be considered half of the task, and the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion would not blame her heavily.

Qin's mother thinks that although Chu Xinyu has become a little smarter, the essence of aristocratic girls like her who have clothes and food will not change. She will not know what to prepare for worshiping Buddha. Moreover, even if the fifth girl knows, she has no money to buy things. She is thin-skinned and will not borrow money from others.

But it turns out that they hit the nail on the head again this time!

It is hard for Qin's mother to ask where she got the money to buy the offerings, because this question is equivalent to not asking for advice. Since the fifth girl didn't tell her, she pretended not to know, but from now on, she no longer dared to underestimate the fifth girl.

"It's noon anyway, so I have someone prepare vegetarian food, all of which are the vegetarian dishes you like." In order to keep her for lunch, Qin's mother even tempted her favorite vegetarian food, but she forgot that what she liked before did not mean that she would love to eat in the future.

What's more, the yellow rat wishes the chicken a New Year, and is not kind. In the past, whenever the people from the second and third rooms came to care about her, Yuan used this sentence to teach her not to get too close to the people from the second and third rooms. At this time, she used this sentence to put it on Qin's mother.

Even though he knew there was a fraud, how could Chu Xinyu agree? Then he shook his head and replied: "The road down the mountain is not easy to walk, and there will be even more people down the mountain. If your mother wants to spend the night here, you can use your meal before leaving."

Chu Xinyu said it very bluntly, so his mother Qin was not good at saying anything, so she ordered the old lady to call the coachman to wait at the temple gate.

When he went down the mountain, the carriage Chu Xinyu was on the mountain yesterday. The carriage was larger than the ordinary carriage. Lan Yi was afraid that Yuan would set up a secret on the road down the mountain, so he asked his mother Qin to get on the carriage with them. As for the carriage that Mrs. Qin took, the two mothers sat down the mountain.

Chu Xinyu knew Lan Yi's actions too well and felt that she was a little bit full of weapons. She always thought that Yuan would not get rid of her at this time. Yuan was too good at pretending. If she wanted to kill herself, she would definitely find an opportunity that had no direct relationship with her to borrow from others.

Now that Yuan's purpose has been understood, Yuan just wanted to ruin her reputation, let her be controlled by her, and try her best to prevent her from attending tomorrow's Hundred Flowers Feast.

But thinking that Lan Yi did this for her safety, she didn't say anything and did it as she did.

Lan Yi would ask her mother Qin to get on the bus together, because she wanted to test her mother Qin and take her as a hostage. If there would be danger in the middle of the carriage, Qin's mother would definitely refuse to get on the bus. As a result, Qin's mother got on the bus happily, which made Lan Yi depressed for a while.

At this time, there are not many people going down the mountain. Occasionally, one or two carriages will go up the mountain. Since the width of the mountain road just can accommodate two carriages, they are extremely careful when passing by, for fear that if they are not careful, they will climb down the mountain if they are on the edge.

The carriage was driving slowly, occasionally a little bumpy, but it was better than when I went up the mountain. Qin's mother looked at Chu Xinyu, and saw her leaning against the inner wall of the carriage and pretending to sleep. She lowered her eyes and pondered for a while, then said, "Girl, I am sorry for you last night. It was because I didn't take care of the people below. Xiangmei also realized that she was wrong and dared not talk nonsense in the future. I asked her to stay in the village for the time being. After I returned to the house to report to the eldest lady, I asked the eldest lady to decide what to do with her."

Chu Xinyu sneered in his heart. Mama Qin told her that she wanted her to let Xiangmei go, and then asked Yuan to sell this favor to Mama Zhu. Will Mama Zhu hate her again?

"Let's talk about this when you go back." Now she will not make any promises. Let her grandmother come when she goes back. This is related to her reputation. She wants to see if her grandmother will handle it for the Hou Mansion impartially.

"Girl..." Just as Mama Qin was about to say something, she was interrupted by the shouts of the coachman outside. Not knowing what happened, the carriage suddenly slowed down, and then another flash, Mama Qin caught her off guard and hit the inner wall of the carriage.

Chu Xinyu was also startled. He opened his eyes and heard Lan Yi ask outside loudly, "What's going on?"

"What's going on?" Qin's mother also asked loudly.

After a while, I heard the coachman's answer: "Miss, it was because the axle of the carriage broke, and the wheels lost their correct head and fell into the mud pit on the side of the road."

Before Chu Xinyu and Lan Yi could react, they heard Qin's mother furious, "Have you checked carefully when you left the car?"

The coachman hurriedly defended himself and said, "I thought the fifth girl would go down the mountain after lunch. I wanted to check the car while you were having dinner. Unexpectedly, the woman ran away and said that the fifth girl was going to rush down the mountain. She was afraid that the fifth girl would wait for a long time before she did not check it. She was lucky, but the axle was broken."

Chu Xinyu and Lan Yi looked at each other. Is there such a coincidence in the world? They were even trapped in a mud pit?

But they all knew in their hearts that when they passed by the market yesterday, the coachman dared to ignore their orders and drove the carriage very quickly and break the axle. How could this terrible slave dare not?

Chu Xinyu sneered, "What should I do now? Can I go down the mountain?"

The coachman said, "Go and have a look." As he said that, he turned around and went down.

Lan Yi looked at Qin's mother and said, "It has not rained these days. How did this mud pit come from? Did you see it when Qin's mother went up the mountain?"

Mama Qin shook her head, "There are many people going up the mountain, so I didn't pay attention."

It would be strange if it wasn't. Lan Yi complained in her heart that the road was only a little wide and there were so many people going up the mountain. If there was a mud pit on the road, how could you not pay attention when passing by? I'm afraid that this mud pit was prepared for them.

After a long time, the people in the car were waiting anxiously, and the driver came over with sweat on his forehead and said, "Girl, this carriage may not be able to leave."
