Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 132

~ GOODBYE TAN BAWANG ~

Mu Yunyao bent down to pick up the bag of medicinal powder, “If this is a real poison, then I’ll believe your words. Unfortunately, your drama is not complete, so eating this bag of medicinal powder will cause you to vomit blood, and your appearance is critical, but it won’t be fatal. You’ll be fine for a few months if you get treatment in time.” 

Cai Qing raised her head, her entire body trembling uncontrollably. “Miss Mu also understands medical knowledge?”

“There are too many wicked people in this world, so I have to use more methods to defend myself. If I did not understand medicine, wouldn’t I have been tricked by you today?”

Cai Qing was silent for a moment and suddenly burst into tears: “Miss Mu, it’s me who deserves to die. It’s me who shouldn’t have any thoughts, but I really have no other choice. Ah Mao was injured but didn’t have the money to see a doctor. Nan’er is eleven years old, but because he couldn’t eat his fill, he’s almost like an eight or nine-year-old child....”

Mu Yunyao looked coldly at Cai Qing, a wave of disgust flashing through her heart. “You’re still using them as an excuse even now? Or do you think I can’t punish you? In this world, there are many ways to let people die without a trace. As you have said, even the officials do not care about people like you. I have plenty of ways to deal with them!”

She didn’t believe that this smart girl would gamble her life for such a reason. If she really valued Nan’er and Ah Mao more than their lives, how could she be willing to use them?

Cai Qing trembled as she raised her hand and ruthlessly slapped herself in the face. She exerted a lot of energy. With that slap, blood immediately flowed from the corner of her mouth. “Miss Mu, I’ll tell you the truth...Indeed, I did not come here to deceive you for the sake of Nan’er and Ah Mao. Instead, I came here to earn money and leave Ci You Bureau!”

As Cai Qing said this, she slightly raised her head and saw that Mu Yunyao’s expression was even colder. A trace of desolation flashed past her eyes. “You live a good life and high above. How do you know the suffering of our orphans? The Ci You Bureau seems to be trying to help these orphans on the surface. But in reality, there’s filth inside. When we grow up, girls like us will be bought secretly by others. Those who are lucky will become concubines of others, but most of them bought to stay at home and become prostitutes. I wasn’t willing to be reduced to that stage, so I agreed to Tan Bawang’s conditions....”

Ci You Bureau? Sneak prostitutes?

Mu Yunyao didn’t think that Ci You Bureau would actually be doing this kind of work. She sized up Cai Qing: “Are you sure I would send people to save you? How will you end this matter if I don’t grant Nan’er’s request?”

“Miss Mu really likes Nan’er. He was abandoned at the entrance of the Ci You Bureau when he was young, and because his body was thin and weak, he often got bullied but never resented anybody. His pair of eyes was especially pure and clean. It seemed like there wasn’t even a speck of filth in them. If others treated him well, he could happily rely on this small advantage to continue living. I think Miss will not reject such a pure child. Even if I fail this time, I can continue to plan, and it will eventually succeed....”

Mu Yunyao scoffed, “You sure know how to use people thoroughly. Moreover, you’re certain I’ll save you, right?”

Now that Cai Qing is in her home, even if she takes her out now, Tan Bawang will still not give up on stealing his concubine’s room.

Even if he was a bit more ruthless, he could still secretly send people to poison her to death, and he could blame it on her, which is a comprehensive calculation!

Cai Qing couldn’t help crying out loud, “Miss, I regret it now. I shouldn’t have used Nan’er, and I shouldn’t have put Li’er in danger. I was just muddleheaded and didn’t want to end up in such a miserable state. I really didn’t think of harming them. I beg you. Please think of a way to save them!”

Mu Yunyao frowned, but just as she was about to speak, she noticed that Nan’er had moved to the side.

“Miss, I’m begging you, please save Elder Sister Cai Qing....” Nan’er struggled to get up. But he couldn’t muster up any strength. He almost fell off the soft couch.

Cai Qing hurriedly stepped forward to support him. “Don’t move. Miss Mu said that two of your ribs broke. If you move recklessly, you might leave behind the root of your illness.”

However, Nan’er stubbornly looked in Mu Yunyao’s direction. “Miss, I know that this is unreasonable. But besides you, I don’t know any other noble people, so I can only beg you to save Elder Sister Cai Qing. I have nothing, and I only can still use this life. I’m willing to sacrifice my life for Elder Sister Cai Qing as long as I can save her. I’m willing to do anything!” 

When Cai Qing heard this, she covered her face and cried, “I’m sorry, I’ve let you down....”

At the door, Su Qing walked in. Her eyes were red as she looked hesitatingly at Mu Yunyao. “Yao’er....”

Mu Yunyao slightly nodded at her, then looked at Nan’er and Cai Qing. “I can save you, and I can also help you escape from Ci You Bureau. It’s just that you need to sign a contract. Are you willing to do so?”

Nan’er quickly nodded, “I am willing, thank you very much, Miss.”

Cai Qing agreed without hesitation. “I’m willing too. Thank you very much, Miss.”

Cai Qing really regrets it. When she went out, she recognized that she had lived with them for many years. Why didn’t she treat Nan’er and Ah Mao as her own younger brothers? When she saw Na’er and Ah Mao being hurt so miserably by her, but he was still pleading, her heart was long flooded with regret. She didn’t even understand why she had been so crazy to use them, which had almost killed the two of them.

Seeing this, the coldness in Mu Yunyao’s eyes slightly lessened as she said to Cai Qing, “Follow me. I’ll have Jin Lan take care of these two children.”

“Yes, Miss.”

After a busy day, it was already noon. Suddenly, a commotion came from the entrance of Jin Xiu Garden, which attracted many people to come over and watch the show.

In front of the door, a boy with a broken finger was shouting nonstop at the garden entrance: “Mu Yunyao, come out! Hand over our Young Master’s concubine. Stealing another’s concubine is a heinous crime. If you don’t hand over our concubine, our Young Master will sue you to the court and ask for justice from the County Magistrate!”

When Jin Lan reported this to Mu Yunyao, Su Qing, who was at the side, was extremely worried. “Yao’er?”

“Mother, don’t worry. I’ll go take a look at the door and will be back in a while.”

“You have to be careful. Bring Si Qin and the others along, don’t let yourself suffer a loss!” Su Qing hurriedly called Si Qin and the others to come over, “You must protect Young Miss!”

Mu Yunyao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Mother, don’t worry. They wouldn’t dare to make a move.”

“Then bring them with you. The other party broke Nan’er’s ribs with a kick. You can see how reckless he is. You should never take it lightly.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to Mother.”

After exiting the room, Mu Yunyao’s eyes instantly went cold.

Steward Qin had already brought his men and was waiting at the door. When he saw Mu Yunyao come out, he hurriedly greeted her. After saluting her, he stood by her side and stared unkindly at Tan Bawang and the people he had brought.

Seeing Mu Yunyao come out, Tan Bawang gritted his teeth and continually sized her up with narrowed eyes. His heart filled with anger: He finally caught this little bitch!

Mu Yunyao naturally saw Tan Bawang. But when she saw his appearance, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. Compared to last time, he had lost much weight, and his aura had also become more feminine. Each of his movements revealed an unspeakable disharmony.

“Young Master Tan, it’s been a long time. I didn’t expect you to come to Jingling City!”
