Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 245

~ PUT AN EYE ~ 

When she came to Jingling City before, Su Qing felt seasick. This time, in order to make her mother more comfortable, Mu Yunyao had prepared a lot of things. However, when they arrived at the boat, Su Qing didn’t know if she had gotten used to it or not, but she didn’t feel too uncomfortable. 

Mu Yunyao and Su Qing were sitting in a room on the second floor. Looking at both sides of the river through the window, she said, “I feel a little reluctant to leave suddenly.”

“Who says it isn’t?” Su Qing also filled with emotions. “I didn’t expect that so many people would come to send us off.”

Thinking of the people’s blessing when sending her off, Mu Yunyao slightly raised the corner of her lips. “Mother, everyone wishes us all the best. I think that this time when we return to the Capital, we will surely be able to achieve all our wishes, and everything we want will come true!”

“That’s good.” Su Qing couldn’t help but laugh.

Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others carried some cleaned fruits, “Just used the ice to cool it. Please have a taste, Madam and Miss.”

Su Qing picked up a grape and stuffed it into Mu Yunyao’s mouth, “You can’t be greedy. Just eat two grapes and have a taste.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to Mother.”

Mu Yunyao leaned on Su Qing’s shoulder as she listened to the faint sounds of water splashing coming from outside. Her sight gradually became distant as the clear light slowly circulated in her eyes. It was as if a bright moon hung silently in the night. Her lips are delicate like petals, with a shallow smile. If there is nothing, it is just like the fragrance of osmanthus.

Su Qing tilted her head slightly. Seeing Mu Yunyao’s expression, she couldn’t help but smile. Yao’er’s looks are becoming more and more outstanding, especially her fair skin, looking like white jade tofu, as if tender can pinch out water. This year, her stature has also risen a lot, and her figure is more exquisite than before.

She was as slender as ever, yet her slim waist and four limbs still leaned limply against her body, as if she were as weak as a bone. How could anyone be cruel to hurt such a delicate and beautiful person?

On the boat, nothing happened on the first day. On the second day, Wen Mama brought several servants to see Su Qing.

“Greeting, Madam. Greeting, Young Miss.”

Su Qing had just finished her breakfast and recovered from yesterday’s departure. She was in high spirits as she asked, “Wen Mama, is something the matter?”

Wen Mama’s face was full of smiles. “Reporting to Madam, previously, Madam and Young Miss were busy arranging business in Jingling City, so this servant didn’t have the mood to disturb you. Now I want to introduce a few servants to Madam, this servant is Zhou Mama, and the girls next to her are Ying Xue, Jian Chun, Guan Xia, and Zhi Qiu. When Madam and Young Miss first arrive in the Capital, they must have a lot of maladjustments. These servants can follow you and can be at your service.”

Mu Yunyao put down the book in her hands, looked at the few people following behind Wen Mama, and her gaze focused on Zhou Mama. The Su family also put a few people beside her in the previous life. Among them was this Mother Zhou. At first, this mother Zhou did her best, which moved her deeply. Later, she found out that this person was being respectful on the surface but had secretly helped the Young Miss of the Su family plan and almost killed her. Zhou Mama had been ridiculing her every day ever since she submitted to Jin Wang. She had even frequently hit and scolded her. Even now, those vicious and harsh curses are still very clear.

Su Qing looked at the people Wen Mama had introduced, and she looked a little embarrassed. “Wen Mama must have seen it too, I have Si Qin and the other three by my side, also have Liang Mama. I’ve also brought a lot of other servants with me. If Zhou Mama also goes with me, doesn’t it seem a bit too much...”

Wen Mama smile at them. “Madam has quite a lot of people by her side, but she still has to take care of Young Miss. Moreover, when we arrive at the Su family, there will be many guests visiting. When we get busy, we will not be able to use enough people…”

Su Qing naturally didn’t want those who didn’t know anything to be by her side, and even more so didn’t want them to take care of Mu Yunyao. She wanted to say a few more words of rejection when she heard Mu Yunyao speak.

“Mother, Wen Mama is so thoughtful. Si Qin, Liang Mama, and a few others should take care of Mother. I only have Jin Lan and Jin Qiao by my side, so I’ve really lacked people. How about keeping Zhou Mama, Ying Xue, and Jian Chun behind?”

Being unable to keep everyone by Su Qing and Mu Yunyao’s side, Wen Mama felt slightly disappointed. However, after interacting with them for so long, she knew that Su Qing and Mu Yunyao were not someone who could be manipulated by anyone, so she didn’t dare to say anything more. She hurriedly motioned for Zhou Mama, Ying Xue, and Jian Chun to salute Mu Yunyao, “Hurry up and greet Madam and Young Miss!”

“This servant greets Madam and Young Miss.”

Mu Yunyao smiled and said, “There’s no need to be so courteous. When we first arrived in the Capital, Mother and I must have many things that we don’t know, just like Wen Mama said. We still need you to talk about them all the time.” 

“This servant dare not. She must do her best to take care of Madam and Young Miss.” Zhou Mama hurried forward to reply, her expression extremely respectful, precisely the same as her previous life.

The smile on Mu Yunyao’s face became even more resplendent. “I can tell from this Mama’s every move that she is a person of utmost respect. With you by my side, the fear in my heart lessened. I don’t know which master Mama was serving before?

“Reply to Young Miss, this servant following Eldest Miss’s side to await her orders. But now that I’ve come to serve Young Miss, naturally, I’ll place more importance on Young Miss.”

Mu Yunyao nodded and looked at Ying Xue and Jian Chun, “What about the two of you?”

“Reply to Young Miss, both these servants are maidservants who had just entered the residence. It was the Old Madam who picked us out to serve Madam and Young Miss.” 

“Alright, since you’ve already followed me, I will definitely not treat you wrongly from now on. Jin Lan, bring me the greeting gift that I prepared.”

Jin Lan hurriedly carried three bags. Two of them were placed together, and one was left alone. She brought it forward, and Zhou Mama naturally chose the one that separated and gave the remaining two to Ying Xue and Jian Chun.

“Thank you, Madam. Thank you, Young Miss.”

“Hmm, you go down first. Let Jin Lan and Jin Qiao tell you about my usual habits. I don’t have many things to do, but the rewards and penalties are always clear. If you do something wrong, I won’t care whether you have chosen by my grandmother or not.”

“Yes, your servant will take her to leave.”

Wen Mama also retreated and couldn’t help but sigh after returning to her own room.

Liu Mama’s tone was a bit strange. “I originally thought that Miss Mu was unremarkable, but now it seems like she has more backbone than Madam. She’s so young, but has this kind of thought …” She didn’t finish speaking, only chuckled. There was a trace of disdain in her laugh.

This time, Wen Mama seemed to have thought of something and actually started chatting with her. “The affairs of the estate have always been handled by the Eldest Madam. The Old Madam seldom takes care of things, so I wonder which courtyard cleaned up for the sake of Madam and Young Miss?”

“The Eldest Madam ordered the Chao Lu Garden to be prepared. That courtyard is so beautiful, and I believe that Madam and Young Miss will extremely fond of it.”

Wen Mama nodded her head. “Chao Lu Garden’s scenery is indeed so beautiful, but isn’t the courtyard a little too small? I wonder if we can fit in all these things?”
