"Hmm? Is there someone here?" Unknowingly, Wukong and Zither had already arrived at the eighth floor of the Thousand Buddha Pagoda, which was also the top floor. Although there were some reckless people who blocked the path of Wukong and the others, they were all knocked unconscious.
When he reached the eighth floor, he discovered that there was a yellow-clothed woman quietly kneeling by the wall. In front of her was a table and a memorial tablet placed on it.
Wukong and Zither slowly walked over. When they were about to approach her, they heard the woman's faint voice,""…I knew that you would come one day…Although we've never met, I could recognize you at a glance…"
"And you are?" Zither asked.
"Can't you think of it? I recognized you at a glance." the woman said.
"You! "You're Qin Yi's, his," Zither said in surprise.
"His concubine, Madam Jiang."”
Madam Jiang continued,"…Until my husband passes away, I will not be his wife. You can rest assured that my title will always be a concubine.”
"I, I never thought of it that way."
Madam Jiang said,"No matter what you think, in the hearts of my husband and my parents-in-law, I am a hundred times better than you, my wife!" If it wasn't for the fact that hubby's heart was too good and that he cared about some old feelings, how would it be your turn to sit as the official wife today!”
Zither didn't say anything. Maybe she thought what Madam Jiang said was true.
"You're going a little overboard. After all, he's already dead. What's the point of fighting for these dispensable things?”Wukong said strangely. If Wukong's former comrades were here, would they be surprised?
"Young Master, you're right. There's nothing to argue about. After all, when my husband was alive, I was the one who served him day and night, making medicine for him and dressing him.”Madam Jiang said.
After a pause, she continued,"Husband and wife are of the same heart, and their hearts are connected. Even if…even if his illness can't be cured anymore, in these few short months, aren't they like a celestial couple?"
Zither suddenly shook her head and said,"No, don't say it!"”
"What?" Madam Jiang smiled. You don't like it? You don't like to hear how loving my husband and I are? Do you know that women should be jealous? No wonder my parents-in-law don't like you."
" I beg you, don't say anymore. I'm here today just to offer incense to my husband. I'll leave soon," Lady Qin said sadly.
"Leave? Yes, you can abandon him again, just like before.”Madam Jiang said with a mocking tone.
"No, I'm not," Zither said hurriedly.
"It's nothing!" Madam Jiang said. Did you know? Ever since my husband passed away, I was afraid that he would be lonely, so I came here every day to accompany him, staying by his side from morning to night.”
"But what about you? You abandoned him for four whole years! It wasn't four days or four months, it was four years!”
"Me!" Zither said bitterly. I…"
Madam Jiang shook her head." There's no need to say anymore. If my husband knew what you were going to say, he wouldn't be willing to listen to it!"”
Zither Maiden didn't say anything.
"If you want to offer incense, you can!" Madam Jiang said. But you have to promise me one thing!"
"…What is it? As long as I can do it…"
Madam Jiang said,"Don't worry, of course you can!" This was not difficult at all! I want you to leave Chenzhou immediately after you finish offering incense and never come back! You don't deserve to stay here!"
Zither was silent again. Wukong also knew that he could not disturb others at this time, so he could only watch the two from the side.
After a long time, Zither raised her head and said," I, I promise you. My wish is fulfilled. I will never step into Chen Zhou again!"”
"Alright, remember what you said. I don't think my husband will want to see you again.”Madam Jiang said.
Zither was silent. She came to the memorial tablet, picked up three incense sticks, lit them, and knelt before the memorial tablet to kowtow three times. She didn't say anything, only did her actions.
After Zither finished burning the three incense sticks, she stood up and said to Lady Jiang,""Thank you, farewell!"
He came to Wukong's side and said to Wukong," Young Master Yun, let's go."
