Mrs. Pei held a bowl of bird's nest soup in her hand and said with a self-deprecating smile, "Maybe I was too nervous this morning, and my eyelids kept twitching. Seeing her performance in the morning, I'm afraid that something has gone wrong. It seems that I thought too much. This idiot is still thinking about Yuning!"

Zhao Quan's wife immediately said with a smile, "How can everyone be as smart as Yuning? In my opinion, why don't we let Qiao Yuyan stay in the nunnery until that matter is over. And if something happens to her, won't it be better?"

"If both the mother and daughter are dead, do you think I'll still be able to stay out of trouble? How can Mr. Qiao not suspect me?"

Mrs. Pei's mocking tone caused Zhao Quan's wife to feel somewhat embarrassed, and she could only smile standing by her side.

Looking at the dark courtyard, Mrs. Pei pondered for a while and asked, "Did that girl really not say anything?"

Zhao Quan's wife had been working for Mrs. Pei for a really long time. When she heard her words, she knew who she was referring to, "Mrs. Pei, don't worry. Mang Zhong' s family are all in my control! She claimed she didn't know anything. Later, when she saw that she was going to be tortured, she knew that she couldn't escape, so she hit her head and died."

Hearing this, Mrs. Pei was relieved and said with a sneer, "Let Qiao Yuyan live a happy life for two more days. In the future, she will have no chance to steal Yuning's thunder in this manor."

Zhao Quan's wife chimed in, "How can Qiao Yuyan be compared to Yuning? She's clearly a brainless person. Just like today, she went to the nunnery after acting cute in front of Old Madam and Mr. Qiao. As a result, she was afraid that she would suffer, so she loaded a whole carriage with things she needed from food to daily necessities."

"She is indeed stupid. If she goes to the nunnery like this, who will think that she is sincerely repenting? How does Mr. Qiao like her?" Mrs. Pei curled her lips and felt amused by her nervousness just now.

Zhao Quan's wife immediately echoed, "That's right! It looked as if she went on a sightseeing tour! She even hired a doctor from the pharmacy. It's too ridiculous! How could the nunnery allow her to raise a male physician?"

Mrs. Pei had been listening to Zhao Quanjia with a smile, but when she heard her words, her hand trembled, and the soup cup in her hand fell to the ground. "What did you say? She brought a doctor?"

Before Zhao Quan's wife could nod, Mrs. Pei pushed her out of the room, "Quick, get your husband here. Now!"

While Mrs. Pei was making a big fuss, Qiao Yuyan and her entourages finally arrived at Yuehua Nunnery.

"Miss, they are still following us!" Shi Ye walked beside Qiao Yuyan and said in a low voice.

Qiao Yuyan also frowned. She had planned to go to the village halfway where Mrs. Xu was, and both places happened to be in the same direction.

However, she didn't expect that she couldn't get rid of those following her at all. Fortunately, they hadn't found out her intention yet. Qiao Yuyan could only say, "Let's go to the nunnery first."

The Yuehua Nunnery had a good relationship with many big families in the Capital, so it was convenient for the womenfolk of these families to conduct religious rites.

The Qiao Family could be considered famous here. Hearing that the Eldest Young Lady of the Zhongyong Estate had come, the deaconess of the nunnery hurriedly came out to welcome her. "The Second Young Lady has been meditating these days. I didn't expect that the Eldest Young Lady would also come."

Qiao Yuyan hated Qiao Yuning very much in her heart, but she didn't show anything unusual.

When Qiao Yuyan heard this, she put on an unhappy expression. After a while, she said in a sweet voice that she was tired and wanted to have a good rest. She would meet Qiao Yuning the next day.

In the end, she added fiercely, "If anyone dares to disturb me tonight, don't blame me for turning against him."

Although the Yuehua Nunnery was a nunnery, it was also in the secular world. In addition, in order to make those noble ladies donate money to it, they knew clearly what had happened in the Capital city.

They knew exactly what kind of person Qiao Yuyan was and the fact that she had been despised by everyone in town.

However, they also knew that the Eldest Young Lady of the Qiao family, Qiao Yuyan's maternal grandfather was very rich in business. She also brought a large sum of money from her grandfather's house.

How could Yuehua Nunnery refuse a great deal of money she may donate? So she immediately cleaned up three meditation rooms for them to stay. She repeatedly promised that no one would disturb Qiao Yuyan.

As for the male doctor, as long as Qiao Yuyan gave them enough money, there would be enough space for two more people to stay in the small courtyard where things were kept in the outer room of the nunnery.

After a simple meal, Qiao Yuyan took Shi Ye to walk for digesting outside the yard. Qi Xi and Nanny Wong naturally went to sort out their packings.

"What about the people who are following us?" Qiao Yuyan asked when there were only the two of them left in her sight.

"They retreated as soon as you entered the nunnery. There is a courier station about five or six miles away from here. They should have gone there to lodge."

After all, this was a nunnery, and it was okay for a doctor to stay here. Those were obviously not ordinary people. How could the Yuehua Nunnery dare to keep them here? What was more, if they annoyed Qiao Yuyan, they would lose more.

"Do you know Qili Village?" Qiao Yuyan thought for a moment and asked.

Shi Ye looked up at Qiao Yuyan and then lowered her eyes, "I know."

"Qili Village is only a dozen miles away from here. When it's late at night, we'll take the doctor there quietly."

It wasn't that she couldn't wait another night, but those following them just now really made Qiao Yuyan worried. It was more important to see Mrs. Xu as soon as possible.

"Miss!" Shi Ye looked at Qiao Yuyan with her eyes wide open, "It's too dangerous."

"You're afraid?" Qiao Yuyan smiled while She Ye was in confusion. "You're a maid that my maternal grandmother bought from an escort agency. You're good at martial arts, aren't you?"

At this time, Shi Ye was not as steady as she had been in her previous life. When she heard that Qiao Yuyan had revealed her background, she couldn't hide the surprise on her face.

Qiao Yuyan made up a story, "A few days ago, my grandmother sent me a letter about you, but I forgot it for a moment. I'm sorry that you have to be a third-class cleaning maid in the yard."

Of course, this was not what was written in the letter from her grandmother but what Shi Ye had told her in her previous life. Unfortunately, Qiao Yuyan once went out and encountered a robber, and Shi Ye died to protect her.

"Yes," Shi Ye replied, "I'm going to prepare for it now."

The distance of more than five kilometers was neither too long nor too short. It was definitely impossible to ride a horse, and it would be easily discovered. There was a bright moon tonight. If they walked faster under the moonlight, they would arrive in an hour.

It was late at night in the suburbs. Qiao Yuyan asked Nanny Wong and Qi Xi to sleep in the same room. Since she wanted to sneak out quietly, the fewer people knew it, the better it was.

Although it was April, it was still a little cold at night.

Qiao Yuyan stood under the courtyard wall, and her heart was still beating fast.

She had never climbed over such a high courtyard wall in her two lives!

Qiao Yuyan couldn't help looking at Shi Ye, who came out to help Doctor Zhou. She didn't expect that such a little girl would have so much strength.

"Be careful!" Doctor Zhou was the doctor invited by Nanny Wong from the pharmacy during the day. Seeing that he was about 50 or 60 years old and had to work like this in the middle of the night, Qiao Yuyan felt a little guilty. When she noticed that he didn't stand firmly, she quickly reminded him.

As soon as Qiao Yuyan finished speaking, Shi Ye suddenly changed her expression and looked at the window next to the room where Doctor Zhou had just come out.

"What's wrong?"
