Incurable Chapter 66 What Did You Say? (2)

-
What Did You Say? After Mu Wan finished exchanging affectionate messages with Liu Qianxiu, she received a call from Lin Wei. The postpartum nanny had just entered to feed Anzhi. Mu Wan took her phone and walked toward the window. The sunlight outside was bright and warm. She narrowed her eyes against it and answered. Before she could say anything, the sound of a baby crying came through the phone, followed by Lin Wei frantically trying to soothe him. Mu Wan waited until she had finally calmed him down before asking, “Why is Little Seedling crying?” Little Seedling was the nickname of Lin Wei’s son. His full name was Lu Yihe. He was one month older than Liu Anzhi. Lu Yihe had certainly caused Lin Wei plenty of trouble while still in her stomach. But after being born, he was actually very well behaved and rarely cried. “What else could it be?” Lin Wei sighed. “He wants to go out and play. Everything else about him is fine, but his heart is already wild. I don’t even need to think about i...

Chapter 120: Ding Yuelan’s Whereabouts After returning from the Cao family’s Residence, Mu Yunyao told Su Qing about Madam Jin’s condition. After listening, Su Qing praised her for doing the right thing. “If Madam Jin had not supported us back then, we mother and daughter would not have what we have today. I know that in all this time we have spent together, there has inevitably been some mutual use between us. People’s feelings do not become completely open and sincere in a day or a night. Now that you have spent so long with Madam Jin, you know what kind of person she is. Since there is already true affection between you, you should think less about gains and losses and cherish that bond more.” Mu Yunyao was stunned for a moment, then nodded. “Yes. Mother is right.” Having lived once before, her temperament had become cold and hard. She could scheme carefully in order to achieve her goals, but she did not wish to turn herself into someone who would use any means without restraint. Ot...

Chapter 119: A Measure of Goodwill There had still been no news from the Capital, and Mu Yunyao could not help feeling somewhat uneasy. Taking the newly prepared Niyun Beauty Album with her, she went to the Cao family’s Residence to visit Madam Jin. The child in Madam Jin’s womb was already close to three months along. Logically speaking, the pregnancy should be stabilizing, and she should not need to be as cautious as before. Yet her appetite had not improved. Instead, her morning sickness had grown even more severe. When Mu Yunyao arrived, Madam Jin was leaning against a soft couch with her eyes half closed, taking a short rest. “Greetings, Madam.” Mu Yunyao rose after performing her curtsy. Seeing Madam Jin’s appearance, her heart could not help giving a start. “Why does Madam’s complexion look so poor?” “Yunyao, you have come.” Madam Jin opened her eyes, but her brows were slightly knitted, her expression carrying a trace of suffering. Even the motion of her hand as she stroked he...

Chapter 118: At Last, Her Wish Is Fulfilled Only after speaking for quite some time did Steward Qin finally stop, though he still looked somewhat unsatisfied. “This is the silver earned over these past days. When you return, take it back to His Highness.” When Yu Yi saw the amount written on the banknotes, he could not help but be startled. “So much?” The tea house had not even been open for a full month, yet it had already earned this much silver? A slight sense of superiority rose in Steward Qin’s heart. He glanced sideways at Yu Yi. “It is only thirty thousand taels of silver. Is that worth making such a fuss over?” Miss Mu was a golden treasure. With her here, no matter how much silver they needed, they would be able to earn it back. Yu Yi swallowed. “Steward Qin, do you think we should also open a few tea houses in Yuexi?” “The people of Yuexi are fortunate enough if they can eat their fill each day. If we opened tea houses there, who would go drink tea?” “If Yuexi will not do, th...

Chapter 117: A Flourishing Trade In just a short dozen days, Jinxiu Garden and Buxian Tower had become famous throughout all of Jingling City. Every day, a crowd waited outside the gates of Jinxiu Garden, trying their luck to see whether they might be able to enter and drink a cup of tea. Wei Yi, Yun Chun, and the others, who were responsible for brewing tea, had also won over a group of supporters in a very short time. Some people even argued fiercely over which tea attendant’s brewing skill was superior. Every day, Steward Qin flipped through the account books, feeling his heart leap with fright the more he looked. He had never expected that selling tea could actually bring in such profit. In just a dozen days, there had already been more than ten thousand taels in income. And this was still because, during the early opening period, invitation cards had been issued to limit the number of people entering Jinxiu Garden. Otherwise, they would likely have earned even more. Mu Yunyao was ...

Chapter 116: Brother, Might You Treat Me to a Cup of Tea? Wei Yi, Yun Chun, and the others were not the only ones whose expressions had grown tense. Even Steward Qin felt sweat bead across his forehead. Previously, he had thought everything was seamless. Now, thinking it over, there were flaws everywhere. If not for Mu Yunyao’s reminder, who knew what trouble might arise later? “Miss, rest assured. This old servant will remind them at all times.” Mu Yunyao nodded. “You need not be too nervous either. All of this is only to guard against the unexpected. If my plan succeeds, then with that golden signboard, no one will dare casually inspect this place or come looking for trouble. As long as you remember your current identities, I imagine no great mistakes will occur. “However, if a flaw does appear, you must tell me and Steward Qin in time. Buxian Tower will certainly not have only one branch in Jingling City. We can arrange for you to go elsewhere. You must never conceal it and handle i...

Chapter 115: Counsel Before the Opening After seeing off Su Qingwu and Xu Li, Mu Yunyao’s entire body relaxed, and her face filled with a radiant smile. Steward Qin ordered Yun Chun to brew tea, then personally brought it to Mu Yunyao’s side. “Miss, has the matter you planned before succeeded?” “Eight or nine parts out of ten.” Joy surged in Steward Qin’s heart. “Excellent. With this, who knows how many times more convenient things will become.” “Let us wait. I imagine it will not be many days before we receive definite news. For now, have people tidy up Jinxiu Garden. In a while, we must still receive Madam Jin and the others. Some of the madams have cold constitutions, so prepare some flower teas, herbal infusions, and fruit teas. I imagine the Governor’s wife will also come later. She cannot eat sweets, so prepare some savory pastries. When they are served, pay special attention. Do not make a mistake.” “Yes. I will have people prepare them at once.” After Steward Qin left, Mu Yunya...

Chapter 114: Lotus Fragrance Carries Afa r As soon as the tea set was brought out, it drew everyone’s attention. The entire set was pure white, painted with lotus blossoms stretching toward the sky. Looking carefully, one could see that it resembled the scenery before their eyes in several places. Su Qingwu finally could not help speaking. “Miss Mu, could the pattern on this tea set have been painted according to the scenery here?” “Precisely. I have made the lords laugh.” “Not at all. The tea set is exquisite, and the painting captures both form and spirit. Even I find myself exceedingly fond of it.” “Many thanks for Lord Su’s praise.” Mu Yunyao began to brew tea. Su Qingwu still wished to say something, but after seeing her movements, he gradually lost his train of thought. Her motions were not fast. Every lift and turn flowed as smoothly as drifting clouds and running water, carrying an indescribable gentleness and elegance. Her slender, pale hands held the jade-white tea ware, and ...

Chapter 113: Jade Bamboo in Deepening Verdure Steward Qin had long since watched over Wei Yi, Yun Chun, and the others as they changed their clothes and waited in the front courtyard. Seeing Mu Yunyao arrive, he hurriedly led her inside. “Miss, please have a look. Are these people still presentable?” “Greetings, Miss.” The fifty people bowed in unison. Dressed in white robes and white skirts, their spirits were outstanding, and there was an indescribable vitality about them. Mu Yunyao felt satisfied. These people had indeed put in bitter effort. Their bearing alone was already countless times better than before. “Good. Follow me to the entrance and prepare to welcome the lords.” Su Qingwu and Xu Li rode in the same carriage. Since both served within the palace and were favored before His Majesty, the two had some acquaintance with one another, and their conversation was more casual. Su Qingwu spoke first. “Eunuch Xu seems to hold that Miss Mu in rather high regard.” Xu Li glanced at Su...
