Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 126

~ DRUNKENNESS ~ 

Mu Yunyao changed her clothes. As soon as she entered the front courtyard, she was pulled to Su Qing’s side by Jin Lan and Jin Qiao. “Miss, everything is ready. We’ve been waiting for you to take your seat.”
 
Su Qing placed at the seat of honor. Although she looked a bit nervous, she was still able to keep it in. Due to the influence of Lady Ding and Lady Jin, her personality had changed a lot. At least, now such scenes can still cope.

“Yao’er, come sit with Mother.”

Mu Yunyao stepped forward and held her mother’s shoulder, pressing her down. “Only Mother can sit on this seat. Mother can take your seat in peace. We still need to toast you!”

Steward Qin quickly agreed: “That’s right. Madam has been working extremely hard these days. I toast the first glass of wine to Madam!”

“There is not any hard work. I didn’t much help in any way.” Su Qing’s face turned red as she embarrassedly refused.

After recuperating for half a year, Su Qing has changed a lot. Her face was white, and her eyes were brimming with energy. When paired with the clothes and accessories that Mu Yunyao had personally made, she looked dignified and elegant, giving off an indescribably gentle aura.

Steward Qin looked at Su Qing. He felt that her eyebrows looked familiar, as though he had seen this person before. When he looked carefully, he couldn’t recall who it was.

Mu Yunyao raised her wine cup. “Who said that Mother didn’t help? If it wasn’t for your support, we had not been able to open Ni Yun Fang. Your contributions are great!”

Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others echoed her words, “Miss is right. When I was learning the pressing needle, I couldn’t learn it, but Madam taught me tirelessly again and again.”

“That’s right. At that time, I always pricked my own hand, and it was Madam who helped me take medicine.”

“And me …”

After being together for a long time, everyone had developed feelings for Su Qing, and their words filled with sincerity. For a moment, she deeply moved.

From Su Qing’s point of view, she had only helped her with some trivial matters. Some of them had even been disregarded by her, but Jin Lan and the others had clearly remembered them.

“The first glass of wine, respect for Madam, may you be satisfied and have your way.”

“I wish Madam Mu good health and success in all matters!”

“I wish Madam Mu young forever, longevity, and eternal happiness!”

A string of blessings filled with joy came out, causing Su Qing to be deeply moved, “Then let’s drink together. I hope that we will be successful and can achieve what we want in the following days.”

“Yes, Madam Mu.”

Mu Yunyao watched on from the side and was very happy in her heart. In order to cope with the situation, they drank osmanthus wine. The alcohol wasn’t strong enough, but when it entered their stomachs, they felt warmth.

Steward Qin stood up, “ This second glass of wine to respect Miss Mu. If there were no Miss Mu, then it would not be the same as today’s day for all of us.” The moment the words left his mouth, the crowd immediately echoed him.

Mu Yunyao didn’t hold back and drank the wine with a smile. After a round of toasts, the courtyard was full of endless laughter and chatter.

Mu Yunyao was happy in her heart, and she couldn’t help but drink two more glasses. The expression in her eyes was a little misty, and for some reason, when she thought of the osmanthus she threw into Su Qingwu’s arms, she felt a little uncomfortable. She picked up a bottle of wine and headed towards the direction of Jin Xiu Garden.

Su Qing noticed her and quickly reached out to stop her, “Yao’er, what are you going to do?”

“Mother, I’m going to help you break the osmanthus flowers.”

“Break what osmanthus flowers? Mother had told people to buy them a long time ago, did you forget?” Su Qing pulled her down as she spoke, “Seeing your face turns red, it can’t be that you drank too much, right?”

Mu Yunyao felt inexplicably wronged in her heart. “The osmanthus flower that I break for Mother was taken by an annoying person. I want to help you break another branch.”

“No need.” Su Qing looked at Mu Yunyao with loving eyes. In two months, Yao’er will be fourteen years old. In this time, her figure has gradually grown, and her immaturity had also decreased by more than half. Her entire body was like a budding flower that was releasing a delicate and beautiful aura, especially her face, which had become even whiter and more tender. Because of the wine, her face was now covered with red. It seemed like she could be broken apart by the wind.

“Mother doesn’t love me anymore.”

Seeing that Mu Yunyao’s expression had become increasingly absent-minded, Su Qing hurriedly called over Jin Lan. “Yao’er drank too much, help her return to her room to rest.”

“Yes, Madam.”

Mu Yunyao was supported back to her room, still thinking about the osmanthus flower. Her eyes moved slightly, and she said to Jin Lan. “I am going to rest. You continue eating in the front yard. It’s rare to see that you’re free these past two days. So you should also get together with your two younger sisters.”

“Miss, are you okay alone?”

“Relax, what’s wrong with me sleeping?”

“Alright, then this servant will go to the front yard.” Jin Lan helped pour the water, and only after seeing Mu Yunyao lying on the bed with her eyes closed did she slowly withdraw.

Waiting until the room was absolutely silent, Mu Yunyao opened her eyes and sat up. The smell of alcohol assaulted her senses, causing her thoughts to slow down. She thought about the osmanthus flowers in the Jin Xiu Garden, opened the window, stepped on a stool, and prepared to jump down.

“Mistress!” Liu Liang’s heart is full of shock. He hurriedly went forward to support Mu Yunyao.

The distance between the window and the ground couldn’t be considered high, but Mu Yunyao had boozed from the alcohol. When she jumped down, the shockwave caused her heels to hurt, and she subconsciously takes a deep breath.

“Mistress, how are you?” Liu Liang had outraged that his follow-up movement was too slow. If he had arrived a moment earlier, he would have definitely been able to stop her from jumping down from the window.

Mu Yunyao shook her head, stretched out a finger, and shushed him gently, “Don’t let Mother find out!”

Lowering his head and seeing Mu Yunyao’s smiling expression, he asked with slight hesitation, “Mistress, are you drunk?”

“No, I still need to go to Jin Xiu Garden to help Mother break the osmanthus flowers!”

“It’s getting late. It’s too dangerous for you to go there.”

However, Mu Yunyao didn’t listen. She focused on the osmanthus flower. The more she wasn’t allowed to do it, the more stubborn she became. “If you’re scared, then you can wait here. I’ll break the osmanthus flower and then come back.” She pursed her lips slightly. There was a hint of crimson on her lips, and it made more beautiful than the roses under the moon.

He was sure that Mu Yunyao was drunk. However, he didn’t want to go against her wishes. Seeing that everyone was in the front courtyard, he accompanied her through the wall and into Jin Xiu Garden.

The bright moon was like a plate, and the radiance splashes down, making the scenery in the garden clearly seen. On the contrary, it seems even hazier than the daytime.

Mu Yunyao’s footsteps were a little shaky. Afraid that she would fall, he carefully supported her arms all the way to Gui Hua Garden. Her palms were already wet with sweat.

When she finally saw the osmanthus flower, Mu Yunyao was overjoyed. She grabbed onto the branch and was about to climb up as if it was daytime.

Shocked, Liu Liang quickly went up to support her, “Mistress, which osmanthus flower do you want? I will help you with it?”

Mu Yunyao tried her best but felt her arm go numb and couldn’t help but knit her brows. “Liu Liang, I wanted to go up. Wouldn’t you be able to fly? How about you holding me up?”

Mu Yunyao slightly raised her head. Her jade-like white face seemed to glow under the moonlight. Liu Liang’s heart skipped a beat. He felt that as long as she gave an order, he would be willing to follow it unconditionally: “… Alright.”
