Chapter 678 The News Brought by Miaokong

When the maid left, both A Ming and the old woman looked unhappy.

The old woman sighed, "Forget it, we don't have that blessing either."

"Don't worry about this daughter-in-law. With just one word, we can be thrown into jail."

When A Ming came back that day, he told her that Lian'er was very beautiful now, wearing silk and satin, with beads in her hair, and her family must be very rich.

After hearing this, the old woman's heart felt like burning coals, and she just wanted to marry this daughter-in-law.

A Ming himself had long wanted to marry Lian'er, so he tested her when they first met that day.

The two people's calculation was that Lian'er would continue to be a servant after getting married, and they could still take home their wages.

Unfortunately, it all came to nothing.

The mother and son sighed at each other for a while, looked at the wife on the kang, and thought about it, they really didn't have the money to marry A Ming another wife.

The old woman took out a handful of copper coins and handed them to A Ming, "Go and grab two pills for your wife to take."

Lian'er didn't know that Gu Fei had sent A Ming and her son away. After waiting for several days, they didn't come, and she was secretly happy.

Since then, I have slowly forgotten about it.

This afternoon, Gu Fei was studying formations with Palace Master Yan, when Qin'er came in and said, "Master, there is Master Miaokong outside the door who wants to see you."

Gu Fei was a little worried about Miaokong, "Did he say why he came to see me?"

Qin'er answered respectfully: "I told you, I told you that the girl's whereabouts are known."

Gu Fei stood up hurriedly, "Master, I'm going out to meet guests."

Walking to the front hall, Miao Kong had been invited in and sat in the hall drinking tea.

He was still dressed in white, looking floating in the dust, but the moment he opened his mouth, people were disillusioned.

"Miss Gu, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much," Miao Kong said while gazing at Gu Fei affectionately.

Gu Fei automatically blocked his crazy words and said to Miao Kong, "Master said that there is news about the girl, is it true?"

Miao Kong's peach blossom eyes were glued to Gu Fei, "Yesterday, a beautiful sister told me that the Holy Mother of the Red Lotus Sect will preach at the foot of Nanshan tonight. There will be many Red Lotus sect members gathering at that time. Maybe that girl is among them."

Gu Fei avoided his gaze and said, "Thank you, Master, for coming all the way to tell me the news."

Miaokong looked at Gu Fei tenderly, "Girl, are you going to Nanshan tonight? I am willing to go with you."

Gu Fei said sincerely: "I plan to go over and have a look, so Master doesn't have to go. I'm afraid it may be dangerous. Master, it's better to go back to the temple to recite sutras."

Miaokong shook his head slightly, "The more danger there is, the more I have to protect her by her side."

Gu Fei had a headache because Miaokong was always flirting with her, and it was hard to rush Miaokong away at this moment. Someone just came to deliver the news, so why did she turn her back on him and not recognize him?

He could only say: "Master, please sit down for a moment. I have something to do at home. I'll be back when I go."

Miaokong clasped her hands together and said, "Girl, go away, don't worry about me."

Gu Fei rubbed her temples and left.

He returned to the main courtyard first and told Palace Master Yan, "Master, I will be leaving the city soon and I will definitely not be able to come back tonight. If the prince comes back, please tell him not to worry."

Palace Master Yan raised his head from a pile of manuscript papers, "Leaving the city at this time? What are you going to do?"

Gu Fei briefly told him the cause and effect. Palace Master Yan narrowed her eyes and said, "The Red Lotus Sect has some evil tendencies. I'm not worried about you going. I'll accompany you out of the city in a while."

Gu Fei thought about going together. The master was very powerful in martial arts and had many helpers to save Dugu Yin.

She nodded, "I'll make arrangements first."
