Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 189

~ THE RETURN OF YUE WANG ~ 

It had been spring for some days now, and although she still feels a little bit cold, the temperature had finally picked up at the end, which makes the greenhouse feel a bit stuffy.

Mu Yunyao changed into a light set of clothes before entering the greenhouse. The flowers she had collected were cared for very well by Jin Qiao. She walked in front of a few peonies and took a pair of scissors to prune some unnecessary branches carefully. Then she carried a bronze pot and carefully sprayed water on it.

Jin Qiao helped to cultivate the soil and fertilize on one side:

“Miss, although it is already spring, the weather is still too cold. Can the peonies really blossom?”

“Look at it carefully. From the looks of it, a flower bud will appear within a few days.”

Jin Qiao was curious and ran to the greenhouse for the next few days. On the sixth day, she finally couldn’t resist the urge to run up to Mu Yunyao with a surprised expression on her face. “Miss, you’re right. The peony really has a flower bud sticking out of it, and it looks like the bud is not small. It will certainly look good when it comes out!”
Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but be happy. “Let’s go take a look.”

Liu Liang also followed in Mu Yunyao’s footsteps to Jin Xiu Garden. When he saw the peonies with tender flower buds on them in the flower room, he couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Mistress, are you going to give these peonies to the salt merchant’s leader, Wu Minzhi, when he celebrates his birthday?”

“Hmm, didn’t you find that Wu Minzhi likes plants and flowers according to the information you gathered?” I presume that he would also like the peonies that bloom at this time of the year. He must like it when I give these gifts to him.”

“Mistress. The salt merchant’s leader is a seasoned veteran. I’m afraid he won’t let go just because of a few flowers and plants …” After all, the salt matter was of great importance. If Wu Minzhi had easily opened his mouth, it would be too difficult to deal with it in the future.

“These peonies are just a stepping stone. It’s better to get some good impressions from them than to be always on guard. Besides, the flowers and plants they grew were not all for him.” His wife also likes flowers and plants very much. So she wants to raise some to give her as gifts.

Just as Jin Qiao was about to ask Mu Yunyao who else she wanted to gift to, she saw a tall figure walk in from outside.

That person was wearing dark clothes with auspicious clouds floating above his sleeves. His embroidered blue cloak lightly touched the ground, bringing with it an intense chill.

Mu Yunyao seemed to have sensed something and couldn’t help but turn her head to look. She met the deep gaze of Yue Wang. “Fourth Master?”

A flash of warmth passed through Yue Wang before he gently nodded and said, “I’m back.”

Jin Qiao and Liu Liang retreat, leaving only Mu Yunyao and Yue Wang facing each other from afar.

The surrounding flowers and plants around were full of life, especially the peony bush that Mu Yunyao was standing on. The flowers were budded and ready to bloom, and the colors were all there. She was dressed in a snow-white dress and held onto a flower bouquet, looking like a charming beauty.

Yue Wang looked at the peonies she was holding and said: “When the flowers bloom, may I have one? I also like flowers and plants very much.”

Mu Yunyao was stunned as she did not expect that Yue Wang was actually someone who loved flowers and plants. “As long as Fourth Master likes it, it naturally won’t be a problem.”

The corner of his lips curved imperceptibly as Yue Wang looked at the surrounding flowers and plants with interest. “Do you want to give it to the leader of the salt merchant, Wu Minzhi?”

Mu Yunyao wasn’t the least bit surprised that he knew of this news. “Mn, I heard that he’s also a person who loves flowers and plants, so that’s why I gave it to him.”

“As the leader of the salt merchant, although he is not as rich as a nation, the silver in his hands is like flowing water. Although flowers and plants blooming in the cold spring air are rare, it is not necessarily enough to catch his eyes.” People like Wu Min usually receive many gifts that are more precious than those offered to the Imperial Palace, and their vision had naturally fostered to the point of being wily and crafty.”

Mu Yunyao smiled and didn’t say anything. She continued to water the peony flower with the kettle, “It’s just asking for directions. It would be good if I could ask, but it wouldn’t be a shame if I couldn’t.”

The green leaves had droplets of water on them, and each one of them was like a scattered pearl. When they lightly touched her hands, they trembled as they slid down. Some of them even landed on her hands, emitting brilliant rays of light.

Yue Wang twisted his fingers lightly and couldn’t help but think back to when he had touched her neck. Warm as jade, smooth as creamy, it was extremely enchanting. The touch of these hands is definitely not worse than the neck.

Yue Wang’s gaze was too obvious, causing Mu Yunyao to furrow her brows slightly. “It must have been hard on Fourth Master coming all the way, so I’ll head back first. I won’t disturb you any longer.”

“Wait a minute.” Noticing that he had lost his composure, Yue Wang hurriedly said, “The last time I came back, I was in a hurry and didn’t have the time to prepare a New Year’s gift for you. Today, I want to make it up to you.”

“Didn’t Fourth Master already send us gifts?”

“That was for Madam Su. This time, it’s for you alone.”

Mu Yunyao didn’t know why, but she thought of the dozen or so ice lanterns that he sent over every night during the New Year. She couldn’t quite say anything to rejected him. “Fourth Master. There’s no need to trouble yourself.”

“Aren’t you curious about what I’ve brought for you?” As Yue Wang spoke, he walked to Mu Yunyao’s side. His tall body carried a strong sense of oppression, making Mu Yunyao seem even more petite and weak. Mu Yunyao stood on the spot, looking at the back of Yue Wang while she is frowning and tightening. Finally, she sighed and followed up. With salt tax there, she couldn’t make things awkward. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to bother himself.

Along the way to the study, Mu Yunyao’s face turned pale. She had been in too much of a hurry when she left the greenhouse, so she didn’t have time to change into a set of thick clothes. She only wore that thin white skirt, and the breeze made her body cold.

Yue Wang turned his head back to look at her, and his heart skipped a beat. He walked to her in long strides and took off his cloak to cover her body, “All this time, it was so cold. Why did you not make a sound just now?”

Because he was afraid that she would refuse, he did not look back along the way. Who would have thought that she would come over wearing such a thin and long skirt? If she gets cold again, what should he do? Yue Wang was tall and slender, his large cloak draped over Mu Yunyao’s shoulders, and many of them scattered on the ground. Mu Yunyao uncomfortably moved. The temperature of Yue Wang still remained on the cloak, which carried the chilly air of his body and transmitted it to her through her thin skirt, giving her the illusion of being hugged by Yue Wang and felt the trembling of her fingertips.

Seeing that Mu Yunyao’s cheeks were slightly red and her pale complexion had faded, Yue Wang let out a sigh of relief without leaving a trace of it, “Next time, you definitely can’t do this. Do you remember?”

“Yes, the study room is warm, so there’s no need for this cloak …” As Mu Yunyao spoke, she prepared to take off the cloak.

Yue Wang reached out his hands to pull the strap of his cloak and carefully help her fasten it. There was a slight crease between his eyebrows, and an undetectable rage in his words brought out: “Don’t try to be brave

Mu Yunyao pursed her lips and uneasily retreated, wanting to avoid Yue Wang’s hand. Unexpectedly, the cloak was too long, so the moment she stepped on it, she fell backward.

Yue Wang stretched out his hand and pulled her into his embrace. Mu Yunyao only felt a flash before her eyes, followed by the cold breath that belonged solely to Yue Wang entering her nose. Then, followed by a more obvious body temperature, which made her face suddenly flush red. She quickly lifted her cloak and retreated a few steps, “Yunyao is rude, please forgive me, Your Highness!”

“Ha-ha-ha.” Mu Wan laughed. She closed the glass window, started the car, and left.

He is worthy of the name Liu Daochang (Taoist Priest Liu). He has a pure heart and few desires.

Mu Wan drove home to the Chengbei District. Two months ago, she bought a house in the Qinghe Mengyuan Community. The Qinghe Mengyuan is located in the old town of Xiacheng, where the house is over thirty years old.

This area is a typical old, run-down town in the city’s center. Although the house was old, the location was good, and the surrounding facilities were perfect, making her life comfortable.

Mu Wan just graduated two years ago, and the money she earned from her two years of acting is only enough for a down payment. Now, she is making monthly mortgage payments.

The home was too old and decorated in the 1980s. The furnishings and appliances were outdated and in no better condition. Lin Wei is an interior designer, so Lin Wei gave her a simple decoration design because the house was too old, and Mu Wan didn’t want to make a big move. The style is inclined to desktop decoration, which is very idyllic.

There was no parking space in this district. Mu Wan parked her car at the entrance of the district lane. After she turned off the car, she got out of the car and walked home. Although the community was old, there were many houses, and it was almost dinner time.

The uncle and aunt, who buy food, walk with their baskets while making an appointment in dialect to dance in the small park after dinner. The creepers climbed half the building wall, wrapped around the iron fence beside the corridor windows. There was thick smoke everywhere in the ruined and decayed community.

There were only six buildings in Mu Wan’s community, with only two rows. She lived in the first building in the last row. Pushing the door and entering the corridor, Mu Wan went to the third floor, took out the key, and opened the door.

She turned on the lights, and the milky white light illuminated the living room. Although the house was only seventy square meters, and the living room was small, it was clean and tidy and looked very comfortable.

After entering the door, Mu Wan slumped on the sofa and laid her body on it as she completely put down her spirit.

She filmed the scene all morning and returned at noon by high-speed railway. Without packing her luggage, she ran to the hospital to see Lin Wei. Now, she was exhausted.

Outside the window, it began to rain again. In the drizzling rain, Mu Wan heard two cats shouting out.

Wild cats gallivanted all night under trees and bushes in this small old community. The cats were unneutered, so they bred fast and overflowed the community.

Lin Wei once said that she was like a cat. She was wild, lazy, and easygoing. She also advised her to keep one, but Mu Wan did not want to.

She was not lonely, nor did she need the company of a cat. If a cat is in the house, there is more cause for concern. She and the cat are not free.

When thinking of cats, Mu Wan remembered the scene in the hospital. The man’s eyelids lifted slightly, and his eyes gleamed under the darkening sky.

Mu Wan raised her wrist to cover her eyes and laughed weakly.

After a tiring day, Mu Wan went to bed shortly after dinner. After a dreamless night, she woke up in the morning because of her mobile phone’s ringtone. Looking outside, the sky outside the window was grey. Although it had not rained, it was not sunny either.

During the rainy season, the humidity is very heavy, and the air is very moist. Mu Wan took her cell phone and saw “Li Nan” on the screen. She pressed the answer and said, “Hello, Big Boss.”

Li Nan was Mu Wan’s agent and the only agent of Xinzhou Entertainment. The eight artists under him all called him Big Boss. Mu Wan signed with Xinzhou Entertainment after graduation. The company was not big, but it did not default on her payment or have domineering clauses. It had decent resources, which was quite suitable for her.

“Tomorrow evening at seven o’clock, Zhang Chengze is hosting a banquet at Qing Songxuan. He is preparing to shoot a new drama series. Mi Yu will attend the audition, and you will go with her.” Li Nan arranged it briefly.

Minor actresses like Mu Wan usually do not attend such events. But it was not like she did not attend social events at all. In such a fame-and-fate event, drinking and eating are usual. Mu Wan needs to be there two or three times a month.

This time, the dinner focuses on Mi Yu, the hottest artist in Li Nan’s hands, who acted as the second female lead in the Great Fire Drama in her peak period. She will go with her, but just through the lobby. Afterward, she eats and drinks in the corner and greets people, so there will be small role arrangements later.

Mu Wan agreed as Li Nan explained two more sentences and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Mu Wan took off her clothes and showered. It was cold and wet, with fog all over her body, making her uncomfortable. After bathing, she took a glass of water and a toothbrush. Then, she began brushing her teeth. Before she could finish, Lin Wei’s phone call came.

Put down the glass, and Mu Wan answered the phone with her toothbrush in her hand.

“Are there any new developments today?”

“No. Come and visit me with Xu Ji’s congee!”

“I will obey your orders.”

Mu Wan had already gotten up so early, so she had no problem sending her congee today. Lin Wei was from Jingcheng. Her parents and younger brother were in Jingcheng, so no one was to take care of her in the hospital.

Mu Wan had no father and no mother. Lin Wei will take care of her when she is ill in the hospital.

~ THE SUPPRESSION OF CAI YUE PAVILION ~ 

 
After sending off Cao Yunnian and Lady Jin, Mu Yunyao and Su Qing felt a little sad in their hearts, but they soon got busy. 

After the reconstruction, Ni Yun Fang had become a six-story building. Looking at it now, it was even more awe-inspiring than Bu Xian Luo in Jin Xiu Garden. Mu Yunyao hung up the finished signboard. She picked an auspicious day and put a few sticks of firecrackers on it, treating it as a new business. Cai Yue Pavilion is becoming more and more popular. Aside from Jingling City, all the other cities and towns in the area had flocked to the extent that no one could compare to Cai Yue Pavilion. After Tan Ba Wang’s accident, Tan Lin did not appear again in Jingling City, but Mu Yunyao did not let down her guard. After all, Tan Bawang was the only child of Tan Lin, so he could only rely on him. With his temperament, he could never forget this grudge.

When Ni Yun Fang reopened, Mu Yunyao naturally sent a message to each of the residences. However, this time many people chose to have their people deliver the gift instead of personally visiting.

Looking at the desolate Of Ni Yun Fang, Su Qing felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, “Previously, they treated us very nicely. But now, after Lord Cao and Lady Jin left just a few days, they suddenly changed their attitude. It really makes one’s heart tremble.”

“Mother doesn’t have to worry about it. First, Li Mu Nian’s attitude towards us is uncertain. Also, with the pressure from Cai Yue Pavilion, it’s understandable that they didn’t come. After a few more days, when things are clear again, they will treat us as kindly as they did before. They come and go with us, but it’s just a matter of flowing water, so you don’t have to worry about it at all.”

Su Qing couldn’t help but sigh, “Alright, I understand.”

Mu Yunyao had prepared a few booklets of beauty. She originally wanted to take advantage of the opening hours to deliver the books. But before she could take action, Jin Qiao rushed in. “ Cai Yue Pavilion has sent invitations to all the residence, Miss. After the invitation, those misses and ladies have all gone to Cai Yue Pavilion.”

Mu Yunyao smiled slightly. “It seems like the opening time we’ve chosen today isn’t very appropriate. It doesn’t matter, since there aren’t any guests, we can just as well slack off.”

“Miss, this servant is worried that Cai Yue Pavilion will continue to target us like this. I heard that they have also prepared their beauty booklets, and it was very popular with the ladies in various residences.”

“Mm, I’ll raise the price of the clothes in our shop later. Every piece of clothing costs more than two hundred taels.”

“Miss, if it’s like this, won’t there be even fewer people coming here to buy clothes?”

“Just wait and see.”

Mu Yunyao had initially thought that no one would come to Ni Yun Fang, but unexpectedly, Lady Chen and Madam Zhao joined in. “Greetings, Madams.”

With the child still in her arms, Lady Chen said with a face full of smiles, “Since you’ve opened your shop today, we’ll come and join in on the fun. Is Little Boss Yunyao welcoming you?”

Mu Yunyao hurriedly let them in. “Since the two Madams can come, it brings light to our humble dwelling. Come in quickly and have a seat. Jin Lan will prepare some tea for you.”

Seeing such a desolate scene, Lady Chen and Madam Zhao looked at each other and felt somewhat regretful in their hearts.

The Governor’s wife comforted her, “Yunyao, you don’t have to take it to heart. Actually, this kind of thing is extremely normal. You’ll understand after you’ve been in contact with it for a while.”

Mu Yunyao’s smile was warm, and her eyes had a look of relief, “Thank you, Madam. Although I’m a bit sad, I can understand it. After all, it’s normal for people to go out and have tea in another place. The two of you being here already makes me happy.”

Seeing her expression, the two ladies heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s difficult for you to understand things so clearly at such a young age. We came here today to look at the clothes. What kind of nice clothes do we have here? Let’s broaden our horizons.”

“The two Madams are here. The new spring dress I have prepared will ensure that the two of you will be as beautiful as flowers and be able to suppress those young ladies.”

“Hehe, we don’t dare to accept your compliment.” The two Madams laughed at her, and the atmosphere in Ni Yun Fang suddenly became lively.

Mu Yunyao not only brought out spring clothes appropriate for the two of them. But, she also specially brought out a set of clothes suitable for children, causing Lady Chen to be stunned on the spot.

“This... Is this for my child? “

Mu Yunyao smiled and nodded, “Actually, I heard that Madam was giving birth earlier. It’s just that Lord Zhao is upright and has not invited anyone to the Full Moon Banquet, so I can’t send gifts forward. Now that I’ve finally met Young Master Lin, the clothes didn’t prepare in vain.”

Lady Chen took the clothes and looked at them. The more she looked at them, the more she was satisfied. The clothes were so exquisite, and even a thread is hard to find. The clothes were so soft to the touch, and the patterns on them were also wonderfully cute, which makes people love it, “Yunyao, you’re so considerate.”

“It’s good that Madam likes it.”

After taking a few clothes and testing them out, the two of them praised each other endlessly. They chatted for a long time until the child in Lady Chen’s embrace fell asleep. Only then did the two of them get up and take their leave.

After sending off Lady Chen and Lady Zhao, Mu Yunyao saw no one came to her door, so she directly ordered Ni Yun Fang’s door to be closed and go home to rest.
When the news reached Cai Yue Pavilion, the newly appointed shopkeeper of Cai Yue Pavilion revealed a proud smile, “The owner has ordered us to suppress Ni Yun Fang comprehensively. This situation is just the beginning. I hope that the little owner of Ni Yun Fang doesn’t cry at the end!”

“The owner has made wise decisions, and the shopkeeper has arranged everything in an orderly manner. It seems like even with all the skills, it would still be hard to turn the situation around Ni Yun Fang.”

“I really thought I would be able to ignore people just because I’ve learned some embroidery needle techniques and heard some flattery from people. Now, I want her to know that there are some people that she can’t afford to provoke.”

Hearing about the matter at Ni Yun Fang, Steward Qin couldn’t help but feel indignant. “Miss, you don’t have to care about those people. They will regret it in a while!”

“I might as well take a break now. It’s also the right time for me to busy myself with the greenhouse.” Mu Yunyao didn’t take it to heart at all.

Seeing that she was so understanding, Steward Qin heaved a sigh of relief. He then felt that he was overthinking about it. He understood Miss Mu’s temperament and knew that such a small matter wasn’t enough to make her impatient: “Steward Qin, it has been two months since Fourth Master has returned to Western Guangdong. Can you tell me when he will come back?”

Steward Qin’s face revealed a hint of worry. “I’m not sure either. Every time I send a letter to inquire about it, Wang Ye doesn’t have a clear answer. Would Miss Mu like to write to ask about it?”

Mu Yunyao slightly pursed her lips as her gaze moved. “Wang Ye still hasn’t returned. It seems that the matter in Western Guangdong hadn’t settled safely. I won’t rush him.”

“After all, this is a matter of great importance. It’s fine for Young Miss to urge Wang Ye.” Supervisor Qin suggested carefully.

Mu Yunyao smiled as she shook her head. “If I keep on urging Wang Ye, wouldn’t it seem that I’m very ignorant? Wang Ye must have a plan, and he will not delay the matters.” After finishing speaking, she walked directly to the greenhouse. Steward Qin shook his head helplessly. Previously, when he saw Wang Ye deliver an ice lantern to Miss Mu and injured his hand because of this, he thought that she would waver a little. Now, it seems that it will be a very long time before Wang Ye can bring the golden doll back to his residence.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 187

~ TEST OUT ~ 

Zhou Ruihua is the Salt Transport Envoy Li Munian’s wife. She was born in the Zhou family, which was the Minister of the Military Department. Many people said that when she reached her prime, she became acquainted with Li Munian at first sight, so she decided to marry him even at the risk of her reputation. This result made the Zhou family and the Li family extremely unhappy, and in the end, it was the Emperor who decided to marry Zhou Ruihua to Li Munian.

However, the royal marriage didn’t improve the relationship between the two families. Even after so many years, the two families still didn’t interact much.

Lady Zhou said gently, “I had the intention to go to Bu Xian Luo, but I did not make an appointment in advance. I was afraid that I could not find a seat, so I took the liberty to invite Miss Mu. Could I make things difficult for Miss Mu?”

“There have always been some seats reserved in Bu Xian Luo for entertaining distinguished guests. Lady Zhou, of course, is one of the distinguished guests. If Madam does not dislike it, I will make a pot of tea for you personally. How about having a taste of it?”

“Of course, it’s good. In the Capital, I’ve heard that Miss Mu’s skills in making tea are exceptional, and even Eunuch Xu in the Palace has never stopped praising you. After hearing this, the Emperor said that if there is a chance, he would definitely recruit Miss Mu into the Palace and have a look at the amazing tea making techniques.”

Mu Yunyao looked surprised: “Did the Emperor really say that? Then I will practice hard of my tea-making techniques after I go back. If I am lucky enough to be summoned by the Emperor, I will certainly show it well.”

Mu Yunyao got into the carriage and followed Lady Zhou all the way to Jin Xiu Garden. She then led the way to the peony seat.

Steward Qin walked over and greeted her. He then took people to arranged the tea set.

Mu Yunyao personally brewed tea and served it for Lady Zhou. Looking at the wondrous scene that conjured from the tea, Lady Zhou praised it for a long time, “In the earlier years, I heard that the Jiangnan Tea Ladies was able to make tea with unparalleled craftsmanship in the world. They also can transform the scenery into a small teacup. I thought it was merely bragging at first, but today, I’ve seen Miss Mu’s craftsmanship. and I realized that there was someone outside the world and what they said were true.”

“Madam, you are too kind.” Mu Yunyao’s face turned slightly red, and she looked a little embarrassed, but her eyes carried a trace of pride and happiness.

Lady Zhou closed her eyes, and the smile in her eyes deepened. After tea, she strolled around Jin Xiu Garden a bit and left without a word.

Mu Yunyao accompanied Lady Zhou to the outside of the garden. Mu Yunyao waited for her to get on the carriage before turning around and returning inside.

Steward Qin came over and greeted her with a solemn expression, “Miss, is that the wife of the newly appointed Salt Transport Envoy, Li Munian?”

Mu Yunyao smiled and nodded. “That’s right. We met at the Cao family’s Full Moon Banquet. She specifically invited me over just now, saying that she didn’t want to come to Bu Xian Luo to having tea, so I brought her over.”

Steward Qin smiled, “What does Miss think of this person?”

Mu Yunyao curled her lips into a smile. “He is gentle and approachable. Even though we haven’t known each other for long, it’s still so easy for people to have a good impression of him.”

Hearing this, Steward Qin felt relieved. “Miss, you have seen through everything. I think Madam will wait for you anxiously. Please go home quickly, Miss.”

“Alright, then I’ll take my leave.”

Yu Yi was at a loss. After Mu Yunyao left, he asked Steward Qin, “Steward Qin, what did you mean by what you said to Miss Mu just now? Why can’t I hear any mystery behind it?”

“There’s no mystery behind it. How can you tell?”

“Then, is this Lady Zhou good or bad?”

Steward Qin shook his head. This person’s brain didn’t know how to react at all: “What about Lady Zhou? What about Miss Mu’s identity?”

“Lady Zhou was Li Munian’s wife and was from the Zhou family in the Capital. She is the legitimate daughter of the current Minister of the Military Department. Besides, the Emperor gave married her with Li Munian. Naturally, she has a different status. Although Miss Mu was now Lord Cao’s adopted daughter, her level of identity was very shallow. It was unlikely that Lady Zhou would take her seriously.”

Steward Qin nodded, “Didn’t you already say the crucial point?”

“A crucial point?” Yu Yi thought about it carefully and was suddenly stunned, “That’s right. Logically speaking, even if Lady Zhou was approachable, she shouldn’t have treated Miss Mu well! Furthermore, from what I’ve heard, this Lady Zhou has a calm appearance on the outside, and she is very arrogant on the inside. She even once said she was disdain for the royal family’s wife in the first place....”

“Looks like the wind is blowing again in Jingling City.” Steward Qin thought for a moment and said, “Recently, get someone to keep an eye on the Li family. After all, the Li family belongs to the First Prince’s lineage. Our current stall has not rolled out yet, and the First Prince must not be aware of it. Otherwise, I am afraid that all previous efforts will be in vain.” Li Qingzhou’s eldest daughter had been in the Palace for many years, and she was now in the position of an Imperial Concubine. Besides, she had raised the eldest son of the Emperor, which was highly respected by the Emperor. Now, the First Prince had married the daughter of a branch of the Li family, which makes the relationship firmer. In the past two years, it has been supporting the development of the First Prince’s party affiliation, which is an important reason why the Emperor began to reduce Li Qingzhou’s power.

“Yes.”

When Mu Yunyao returned home, Su Qing looked at her and let out a sigh of relief, “Yao’er, why did that Lady Zhou want to do with you?”

“It must be that Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo are too popular. She wanted to test it out, and I was just there to act with her.”

“What’s the effect?”

“Mother, you don’t need to worry. Lady Zhou has a noble background, and she married into a wealthy family like the Li family. Naturally, she disdains to make things difficult for me. Let alone a small thing like Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo, even the giants like Cai Yue Pavilion is nothing in their eye, it just merchants.”

“Sigh, I feel that I have lost some of my strength in my heart after Lord Cao and Lady Jin left.” Su Qing couldn’t help but sigh. She had a calm personality. It was not easy for her to feel that everything was in order, but she suddenly felt that something was off. She wouldn’t know what happen in the future?

Mu Yunyao took Su Qing’s arm and sat on the bedside. “Mother, you don’t have to worry. It’s good if the adoptive father and mother go to the Capital. This way, when we return to the Su family, we can meet with them in the Capital.”

“Yao’er, I also heard from Steward Qin about some matters regarding Lord Li. His background is deep and profound, and he is not someone we can afford to offend. In the future, we should stay as far away from him as possible.”

“Mother, I don’t want to have anything to do with him, but it seems impossible now. When Lady Zhou saw me today, she was probably trying to test out my character and personality. She might have some other motives.” Mu Yunyao thought for a moment before deciding to tell Su Qing the truth. She would have been exposed to some things sooner or later, and she will be able to prepare for something if she knew it early.

“The Li family has lots of assets, and the father of Lord Li is the Prime Minister. We are just commoners. What can they possibly get from us?”

“Mother had known Lord Li’s father’s identity. I presume that you know that he is the First Prince’s maternal grandfather. Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo have gained a great reputation in Jiangnan. If the First Prince could use them, it would be good.”

Su Qing couldn’t help but be nervous. “Doesn’t that mean we’re in danger?”

“Mother, you don’t have to worry too much. Since they want to use us, I will naturally use some methods to win us over. Besides, do you think they’ll go overboard with the golden signboard that the Emperor personally gave us? We’ll only need to treat it as not understanding.” If Yue Wang had not been there, their situation would have been much more difficult, but it was different now. If they had been able to get their hands on the salt tax according to plan, then Yue Wang’s power would have quickly expanded. With such a stable and reliable backer, she was not afraid of even a few princes!

~ FIRST MEETING WITH LI MUNIAN ~ 

Mu Yunyao hurriedly nodded. “Mother, please be at ease. I’m only live my life honestly. How would I have any relationship with this Lord Li?”

Lady Jin sighed. “If it weren’t for Bu Xian Luo and Ni Yun Fang, I really would have brought you and Sister Su into the Capital.”

“Mother, there’s no need to worry. After a while, I might even open Bu Xian Luo and Ni Yun Fang in the Capital. At that time, I’ll come to you.”

“That’s great. After I arrived in the Capital, all I hoped for was for this day to come.” Lady Jin really couldn’t bear to part with Mu Yunyao. Although they hadn’t spent much time together in the past half-year, it made her feel incomparably fresh and comfortable. She could even gradually put aside all of the sufferings.

“Mother, there’s no need to be sad. Once you and Father have settled down, I can also bring my mother to the Capital to see you, merely to see the prosperity there.”

“Well, I’ll write to you when I had settled down. When you have time, you must come to the Capital.”

Mu Yunyao didn’t know what to say, but after dispelling the sadness in Lady Jin’s heart, she got up and said goodbye.

A few days passed unknowingly, and it was finally the Full Moon Baquet of Lady Jin’s child. During the confinement period, Mu Yunyao came frequently and took care of Lady Jin very meticulously. On the day before the Full Moon Baquet, she specifically came in the evening to help Lady Jin perspire. So when Lady Jin finished bathing early in the morning, she felt relaxed all over. It was as if the delivery had not happened to her at all and no trace on her. Mu Yunyao accompanied Su Qing to the Cao family’s residence. Yin Hong was already waiting at the entrance and greeted them at the door. When she saw them, she hurriedly led them to the backyard with enthusiasm.

Soon, the guests gathered, and Mu Yunyao followed them to the front courtyard.

As soon as she walked in, she saw the man standing next to Cao Yunnian. He looked very young, about 25 or 26 years old, but his whole body was extraordinary. He had a warm smile, and his face was gentle, making people feel close to him.

However, Mu Yunyao discovered that his smile was floating on the surface, and it didn’t reach his eyes in the slightest. It was as if his smile had already become a mask that completely covered up his real emotions, making it impossible for others to notice. Mu Yunyao narrowed her eyes slightly, and a faint smile flashed through her eyes. This Li Munian was the youngest son of Prime Minister Li Yuanzhou, and he was very favored since he was young. Many people say that he was forced by Prime Minister Li to take an exam to gain fame. But people would have no thought that the most important thing for the Li family is not Li Muqiong, who is now a second-rank official and has a lousy literary skill. Or Li Mubai, who is brave and well-known good at fighting and has repeatedly made military merits. Instead, rather the inconspicuous Li Munian.

With the sound of the salute, Mu Yunyao stood beside Lady Jin with her eyes slightly lowered, her appearance respectful and quiet to the extreme. With a smile in Li Munian’s eyes, he glanced around. His gaze finally stopped on Mu Yunyao’s body. He was a little surprised in his heart. Mu Yunyao, at such a young age, had already received two rewards from the Emperor. Besides, as a commoner, she was adopted as an adoptive daughter by Cao yunnian and Lady Jin. No matter how indifferent her mind is, she should be a bit boastful at this time. However, he did not expect that she dressed elegantly, and her expression was tranquil. If it weren’t for the fact that her beauty was hard to conceal, it would have been easy for people to ignore her.

“You must be Miss Mu. I’ve heard of Miss Mu’s kindness in the Capital. She has exceptional craftsmanship and does not hide her skills, which is worthy of respect.”

LadyJin did not expect that the first person Li Munian asked was actually Mu Yunyao. She subconsciously took half a step to the side to replace Mu Yunyao as she replied, “Yao’er is still young and has yet to learn many of the rules. Lord Li praised her wrongly. Yao’er, why don’t you come forward and salute us quickly.”

Mu Yunyao didn’t raise her head. She followed Lady Jin’s words and went forward to pay her respects before returning to Lady Jin’s side.

Li Munian’s eyes moved, but the smile on his face didn’t change. He nodded and looked away, chatting gently with Cao Yunnian.

Although the arrival of Li Munian made the banquet a little bit different, it is still a Full Moon Banquet. Naturally, it is indispensable to carry the children out to lively and joyfully.

Cao Yunnian was about to enter the Capital, and his future prospects were limitless. Everyone had prepared a generous amount of gifts, and when they saw the beautiful boy carried out, they praised him continuously, which make Lady Jin smile.

Li Munian took off a jade pendant and placed it on a plate carried by a maid, “This jade pendant was given to me by my father when I was weak. It doesn’t mean anything valuable, but it means luck and peace. I hope Lord Cao and Lady Jin don’t dislike it.”

“How could that be? It is a gift from Prime Minister Li, and it is too precious to Lord Li. How could this child be able to bear it?”

“The child has just reached the full moon, and he already looks so exquisite and cute. When I saw him, I was also so happy. I wanted to carry him home and raise him. It can also regard as my fate and this child. I hope that this child will be lucky and safe in the future. Did the child have a name?”

Cao Yunnian nodded, “Yes. He has already taken it, and the name is Zhiwen.”

“What a good name. A gentleman wins when he’s civil, a man wins when he’s historical, and a gentleman becomes a gentleman when he’s cultured. The gentleman wears a jade. This gift of mine is really timely.” The banquet atmosphere is lively. Mu Yunxuan also gave her own present. The present she prepared had not considered being expensive. It was a pair of children’s clothes. The clothes were unmistakably small and exquisite, but the inner garments, outer garments, shoes, and hats were all complete. There were even belts and pockets. It is embroidered with a remarkably adorable pattern. Some ladies looked at it and couldn’t put it down and repeatedly praised her superb craftsmanship.

Mu Yunyao responded with a smile but didn’t say much.

The host and the guests enjoyed themselves, and the Full Moon Banquet was over. Just as Mu Yunyao was about to leave, she stopped by a maid. “This servant greets Miss Mu.”

“Miss doesn’t need to be so courteous. I wonder who you are …” The maid in front of her wears a lake-green dress. Her smile was sweet, and her manners were considerate. But there was a trace of imperceptible arrogance in her eyes.

“This servant is the maid by Lady Zhou’s of Salt Transportation Envoy’s wife. Madam appreciates Miss’s embroidery skills and would like to speak a few words with you.” As she spoke, she raised her hand and gently motioned to the carriage beside her.

Mu Yunyao turned her head and said to Su Qing, “Mother, you go home first. I’ll go speak with Lady Zhou and have my adoptive mother send someone to escort me home.”

Su Qing was a little worried, but she knew that it is not appropriate to say more at this time. She could only nod her head and shake Mu Yunyao’s hand firmly, “Alright.”

Mu Yunyao smiled as she nodded, then followed her with a frown as she walked towards the carriage at the side. “Mu Yunyao greets Lady Zhou.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the curtain of the carriage lifted, and a beautiful woman was smiling. She had beautiful eyebrows and a delicate face, and a tear mole under her left eye had perfectly blended in, causing her to feel a bit tender. “Miss Mu, I feel impolite, has taken the liberty to invite you over, has it delayed your return home to rest?”

“Madam is too polite. My home is also close to this place. If it earlier or later, there is no hindrance.” Mu Yunyao had a smile on her face. Her smile was specifically sweet and tranquil, and her eyes were clear without a trace of haze.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 185

~ LADY JIN’S RED ENVELOPE ~ 

 
When she was at Jin Palace, she also had a greenhouse, but it was so small. However, she nurtured the flowers and plants with great vigor and vitality. During the new year, Jin Wang brought two pots of beautiful peonies to showing his big face.

“Really? It is the first time that this servant has heard of it.”

“In fact, it’s not that surprising. Greenhouses had built in many places in the Capital, but the cost is too expensive. Most of the flowers and plants raised are not as beautiful as the spring and summer. Even so, they are in short supply in the rich and powerful family.”

“When will Miss pack those plants? This servant will also learn a couple of moves from you. How about that?” Jin Qiao looked eagerly. Her embroidery skills were not bad, but it had lost a bit of its spirituality when compared to Jin Lan. In her heart, she did not have much love for embroidery. On the contrary, when she hears about raising flowers and grass, she gets full interest.

“Alright, if you like it, then learn from me. When you succeed, I can also get away and do other things.”

Mu Yunyao brought Jin Qiao around the greenhouse for a few days and taught her how to look after the flowers and plants. Then, she took off to help Lady Jin with the Full Moon Banquet.

Cao Yunnian had promoted again, which made countless people jealous. Within a year, he had advanced from a fifth-grade Zhizhou to a fourth-grade Capital Investigation, so how could anyone not be envious of him? His one year is worth the hard work of others for more than ten years. How can they not be envied?

Although Cao Yunnian wanted to enter the Capital after this Full Moon Banquet, he couldn’t let go of the connections he had been working hard to manage in Jingling City. Therefore, the arrangements for the banquet had to be extra meticulous, not letting others feel like they had forgotten their duty after they left. Otherwise, it would not be worth it.

Lady Jin was interested in training Mu Yunyao, so she asked her to help prepare the guests’ list, seats, and dishes for the banquet.

Mu Yunyao didn’t decline either. After such a long time, she finally thoroughly understands the complicated network of people in Jingling City. After a moment of thought, she started writing but intentionally left out a few less prominent people and passed the completed list to Lady Jin.

Lady Jin looked at it carefully, and she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. As expected, Mu Yunyao had an exquisite heart. “Yao’er has arranged it very well. When I was your age, I only wanted to play around, but there are a few people that you need to pay attention to....”

“Thank you for your reminder, Mother. Otherwise, I really would have missed it.”

“You’re still young. This arrangement is already exceptionally comprehensive and meticulous. There aren’t any problems with the dishes, so I’ll send out the order and have someone prepare it according to your instructions.” After that, Lady Jin took out a red envelope from under her pillow: “When I was giving birth, I promised to give you a red envelope. However, I’ve been busy raising my body and taking care of your brother these past few days, so I forgot about this matter. I wanted to give you a red envelope at the Full Moon Banquet in a few days, but when I thought about it, this will inevitably cause some trouble for you, so I decided to give it to you today.”

Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief. If Lady Jin really did give her a red envelope at the Full Moon Banquet, many people will definitely ask the motive. At that time, no matter how she explained, there would probably be some gossip coming out. Just in case, those rich people investigate deeply and learn that she is very good at helping people deliver babies. There are actually people who ask her to come, and it was hard to decide whether to go or not.

“Thank you, Mother. I’ve already said this before, so I will not be polite.” Mu Yunyao took the red envelope and weighed it heavily in her hand. “Mother, how many banknotes did you put in there? How come it’s so heavy?”

Lady Jin smiled and said, “You’ll know once you open it yourself.”

Mu Yunyao opened the red envelope and saw the contents inside. She couldn’t help but be taken aback. “Mother, how can this be?”

In addition to the tens of thousands of taels of silver in the silver notes, there were also several deeds of a few mansions, farmland, houses, and land deeds. There was also a list of all kinds of porcelain, jade artifacts, and accessories. It is to be a few times more generous than the dowry of Lady Jin in the first place.

“Mother, this is too precious. I absolutely cannot accept it.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll tell you in detail.” Lady Jin pulled Mu Yunyao’s hand and sat down, “Since you called me Mother, then I’ll treat you as my own daughter. In my eyes, you and Zhiwen are my children, and I am sincere to you. However, your younger brother will be able to make a career for himself as a man. As a woman, you will marry someone else’s family in the future. You also will serve your in-laws, raise your children, and take care of your husband. The hardships and suffering that you’ve gone through are not worth mentioning to outsiders. If these extraneous things can help you live a better life, Mother would also feel comforted.”

Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled, and a strong feeling spread through her body. If it weren’t for the fact that they were really in her shoes, Lady Jin wouldn’t have said such words, “Mother, there are more places in the Capital where flowers are needed. I have Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo in my hands. I don’t lack silver taels. I can purchase other things slowly, but you are different. After such a long time, I have more or less understood a little bit. The Jin family is not an easy place to get along. If they find out that you have left everything for me, it’s hard to avoid a grudge...”

Lady Jin patted her hand: “Don’t worry. I have also saved a lot of personal money over the years. I don’t have much, and I’ll keep some for you. When the time comes for you to put on makeup, you can take care of it. As for the other shops, I’ll leave them behind. Since it’s inconvenient for me to manage them, so I’ll give them to you.”

Mu Yunyao still felt that she couldn’t accept it. “Mother....” She is afraid these things are most of the property of the adoptive mother. They were way too valuable.

“Alright, if you still refuse to accept it, I’ll be angry. Since Mother hasn’t given birth yet, the consequences of getting angry will be much worse than usual!”

Seeing that Lady Jin really had a stern face, Mu Yunyao thought for a moment before nodding. “Alright, then I’ll accept it. Thank you, Mother.”

Lady Jin then showed a smile: “That’s more like it. Shopkeeper Jin has followed me for many years, and he knows all the farms, mansions, and shops that I have. I’m not going to bring him with me when I return to the Capital. I will leave him by your side.”

“Okay, please be at ease, Mother. I will take good care of Shopkeeper Jin and ask for his advice when I have something on.”

“Yes, Mother.”

Lady Jin thought of another thing, “Oh right, I assume you’ve also heard that the person who came to take over your Father’s position is Li Munian from the Capital. His identity is extraordinary, so you should pay more attention and try not to provoke him.”

“I heard that he came from the Li family in the Capital. Although I was far away in Jingling City, I also heard about the prestige of the Li family. It was really amazing. It really makes one sigh in admiration.” Mu Yunyao revealed a surprised expression. 

Lady Jin nodded in agreement: “Father of Li Munian is the Prime Minister of the dynasty, Li Qingzhou. Although he is already old and the Emperor wants to reduce his power, in the end, he is still a veteran official who has followed the Emperor all the way. The Emperor has always been thinking of his old relationship with him. Thus, he considered being someone of high authority. In these past few years, the Su family has gradually developed. Although they can faintly compete with Li Qingzhou, I think the newcomers still not as powerful as the old ones. I’m afraid that Li Munian’s coming here has other purposes. After we leave, the influence will certainly not be as good as before. You must be more careful not to get involved in it.”

Incurable Chapter 1 Part 2

Liu Daochang. His nickname is quite distinctive. Mu Wan leaned back in her chair and asked, “Why does he have such a nickname?”

“He believes in Taoism. I heard he would take four days off monthly to meditate at a Taoist temple. If he cannot save a patient in the Emergency Room, he will perform prayers for it. But his personality is too cold, and he has almost no contact with others as if he has no seven emotions and six sensory desires, like a Daoist Immortal.”

At this point, Mu Wan’s first impression of Liu Qianxiu is vivid in her mind. No wonder she felt he was free from the world’s vulgarities and possessed an immortal appearance. It turns out he had such a religious legacy.

“Taoist believers are like this. They are pure-hearted and have few desires. They are devoted to the cultivation and become immortal.” After speaking this, Mu Wan did not go on talking. After all, talking about others behind their backs is not very good. She had a good impression of Liu Qianxiu. She felt that his whole person was washed very clean. Moreover, as a doctor, he rescues patients, and as a monk, he performs prayers for dead patients. Whether helpful or not, it can deliver comfort and peace of mind to the deceased’s family members.

“Don’t you think the name Liu Qianxiu is a little familiar?” Mu Wan looks at Lin Wei.

“Liu Qianxiu is the name of the Liu family’s head. He is one of the Four Young Masters in Xiacheng.” Lin Wei is always well-informed. She ladled congee with a spoon and said, “But it should be that they only have the same name. The Liu family’s head manages the family’s internal affairs every day. How can he come to a hospital to be a doctor? How much money can a doctor make?”

“Maybe he doesn’t need money, so he goes to cure diseases and save people, or maybe he wants to pursue spiritual salvation?” After Mu Wan finished, Lin Wei turned her head, and her white eyes gave Mu Wan a look she could feel trying to penetrate through her. Mu Wan smiled because of it.

She accompanied Lin Wei until the rain stopped. Mu Wan took the umbrella and walked out of the hospital. It had been raining for two days, and the hot and humid air was gone today. When she went out, the cold wind blew through the rain, bringing some coldness to her body.

Dark shadows had already appeared. The lights were bright in all the hospital’s buildings, and the water reflected them on the ground. Mu Wan found her car and opened the door.

As soon as she got in the car, there was a prompt tone on her mobile phone, and the screen lit up her face. After Mu Wan unlocked it, she saw the bank transfer notice. It was the remuneration of her recent movie.

At that time, Mu Wan chose to study acting at the Film Academy because the money for filming was fast. Even if she does not compete for prime roles, playing such minor roles is enough to support her.

Since childhood, she has had no father and lived with her mother in the Mu family. Later, her mother died, and after graduating from high school, Mu Wan moved out of the Mu family. She’s now a lonely woman, lurking in the shadows, signing up for a small company and playing minor roles that nobody notices. When one person is sufficient, the whole family is not hungry.

This kind of life is also very good. In a movie, the protagonist and supporting roles are the norms for most actors.

She’s probably the least ambitious actor in the entertainment industry.

After thanking the company, Mu Wan put her mobile phone aside and prepared to start the car. She stepped on the clutch under her feet, but before she pressed the ignition button, she heard the muffled sound of the window glass knocked on.

Outside the window stood a man whose silhouette reflected on the glass window. He was thin and straight, but she could not see his face. Mu Wan stopped starting the car and opened the window. The black car windows fell like a movie, gradually drawing the curtain.

Outside the window, the man had taken off his white coat. His gentle, elite aura made him look like an immortal. His linen shirt was wide, comfortable, and stylish. He had a long umbrella in his hand. His fingers were long and bony, and they were on the black handle of the umbrella.

The sky gets covered with a thin dark shadow, making his cold white skin glow. His appearance is more delicate in the near than in the distance, especially in those eyes.

Dark and bright, transparent but not bottomless, like a pool.

When Mu Wan opened the window, he still looked quiet and calm, pointing to Mu Wan’s car.

“Wait a minute. There’s a cat under the car.”

His voice sounded like a clear spring, deep and cold.

It’s Liu Daochang

As Liu Qianxiu spoke, he had already reached the back of the car. There was a rustle. Mu Yan put her wrist on the window frame and squinted at the rearview mirror.

In the small rearview mirror, the man bent down his slender legs and squatted. He held a biscuit in his right hand. Under the shadow, the outline of his side face was hazy and clear, like an unpolished watercolor painting.

When he looked under the rear car tires, Liu Qianxiu’s voice was calm. He called it out gently, “Come here.”

A cat came out from under the car in the narrow rearview mirror.

Mu Wan’s eyes shone.

It was a plump calico cat with a rounded abdomen and a grey body. As soon as it got out from under the car, it looked up and cried at Liu Qianxiu. The voice was soft, as though it was familiar to him.

As soon as the cat came out, Liu Qianxiu did not hesitate to stoop down, stretch out his hand, and hold it in his arms.

The ground was full of water, the cat’s paws got covered with mud, and he trampled on his shirt as soon as he got into his arms. It prints plum blossom mud on his linen shirt, which didn’t bother him.

Lin Wei said he hardly associates with people but treats the kittens intimately. Mu Wan looked at Liu Qianxiu, holding a cat. His figure was tall and straight. He is like an immortal from the nine heavens looming in the mists, with a sense of emptiness. At that moment, Mu Wan felt like she was seeing an immortal cultivator.

“Is this your cat?” Mu Wan put her elbows on the window frame and looked at one person and a cat.

Liu Qianxiu turned and looked at the calico cat in his arms. Mu Wan in the car was smiling at him very charmingly. Her smile crinkled her eyes, and her eyes were also bright.

“No. A stray cat.”

“I think it’s very close to you.” Mu Wan glanced at the cat, and the pupils of the cat’s eyes had become black.

“I feed it sometimes.” Liu Qianxiu said.

The conversation between the two was simple. Mu Wan asked him, and he answered nothing much.

It seemed accurate that he was as plain as a chrysanthemum.

“Do you like cats?” Mu Wan smiled.

“Hmm.” Another simple answer.

Dealt with this kind of reply, Mu Wan could only shake her shoulders, and her small face wrinkled with a smile.

“Meow.~”

It was a short sound, not too loud or low, and it mingled with Mu Wan’s crisp and charming laughter. It gave off a sweetness similar to marshmallows wrapped in chocolate sauce, soft and fascinating.

The calico felt disturbed by her laughter. Its ears moved, opened its eyes, and looked over while the man who held the cat, his eyelashes slightly raised and gazing at her, silent, boundless.

The author has something to say:
Mu Xiaoxiao: If you feed me something, I will kiss you too.
Liu Daochang: Can you eat lollipops?

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 184

~ NAMING ~ 

In the next few days, Su Qing went to the Cao family’s residence very frequently. The originally ugly child quickly grew up, becoming white and tender, which was especially attractive. 

Cao Yunnian flipped through the books, wanting to find a great name, but the words he chose were too unfamiliar. Lady Jin looked at it and disagreed. Instead, she found Mu Yunyao, “Yao’er, why don’t you help your little brother choose a name?”

Mu Yunyao was really shocked, “How is it appropriate for me to choose a name?”

“What’s wrong with it? If you didn’t come to help, can this child be born safely? Naturally, there would be no one more suitable for this than you.”

Thinking of Concubine Zhou and those two midwives, a cold light flashed through Lady Jin’s eyes. Although she didn’t want to kill the innocent, she will not be merciful when she meets people who want to murder her. If they dared to reach out, then don’t blame her for being merciless.

“This....” Mu Yunyao looked somewhat awkwardly at Cao Yunnian at the side, “Didn’t Father flip through a lot of books? Let him choose it.”

Cao Yunnian laughed dryly, “Your Mother despises me for finding such a strange name. I’ve racked my brains to come up with a name that doesn’t suit my son. But what your Mother said is right. It’s very appropriate for you to choose the name.”

Looking at the expressions of the two, Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but burst out laughing. “Alright, since it’s like this, then I won’t decline any longer, this name....Let me think. A gentleman wins when he’s civil, a man wins when he’s historical, and a gentleman becomes a gentleman when he’s cultured. If not, let’s call it Zhiwen, Cao Zhiwen?”

“Then, a gentleman, not bad, not bad. It’s much better than your Father thought. I don’t want him to be rich or powerful, I only want him to be decent, to understand the ways of the world, to be a gentleman, and heaven will treat him well. He is called Zhiwen, Cao Zhiwen.”

Cao Yunnian nodded, “Well done.”

After talking for a while and discussing what to do with the full moon wine, Mu Yunyao got up and left.

After she left, Cao Yunnian asked Lady Jin, “Madam, what you’re doing seems to have a deeper meaning?”

Lady Jin smiled, “What is Old Master’s think of Yunyao?”

Cao Yunnian thought for a moment and sighed with emotion, “There is nothing to pick on in terms of looks, character, and temperament, especially in terms of intelligence. There is a sense of elegance in her body, and if I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I would not believe that an ordinary family could bring up such a child.”

“Besides these, how does Old Master think of her future?”

“Future?” Cao Yunnian thought for a moment before shaking his head. “Although she has been praised by the Emperor twice, business is not the right way. Scholars, farmers, commerce, and merchants are still in the lower ranks. She may live a rich life, but it is really complicated to predict what kind of future she will have.”

On the other hand, Lady Jin shook her head. “I’m thinking the exact opposite of Old Master. I think that in the future, she will make a great leap forward and make a great surprise!!”

Cao Yunnian stared at her and asked. “How do you know?”

“The words I said might not be pleasant, but please do not mind Old Master. In the past half-year, Old Master had first been promoted to an official, and you also received a reward from the Emperor. Now that your performance evaluation was excellent, the promotion was imminent. Although there was a reason why you were able to become an official, it was mostly due to you receiving rewards from the Emperor. That could also be a consideration due to Mu Yunyao’s influence. What she had done looked ordinary and unremarkable, but in reality, she has gradually laid a solid foundation for us, making Jingling City famous in the eyes of the Emperor. So how could such a woman be willing to be ordinary?” Lady Jin sighed. “Some people are born different from others. Even if they are from a humble background, they will definitely surpass tens of thousands in the future. I think Mu Yunyao is one of them. We are the ones who are leading her, but in the future, she can reverse this situation. We recognize her as an adopted daughter, and we have already made this good relationship. Now that she’s given a name for our son, it’ll stabilize our relationship for the next generation. Even if Yunyao’s future is not too good, with her helping me giving birth safely, it won’t be too much to ask her to choose the name.”

Cao Yunnian thought carefully and couldn’t help but nod his head repeatedly. He held Lady Jin’s hand and said, “Madam is so thoughtful. In the future, we will treat Yunyao as our own.” Lady Jin smiled and nodded. She knew that Cao Yunnian was not a pedantic person, so she dared to say what she said before. Otherwise, if she was a petty person, not only would she not be grateful to Mu Yunyao, but she would also have a grudge in her heart. “Look at how I’ve been taking care of my child these past two days. I’ve forgotten about the matter with Concubine Zhou. Back then, Yunyao was too worried for me, so she scolded her. Master, please don’t mind her.”

Mentioning Concubine Zhou, Cao Yunnian’s expression turned even worse. “I wanted to let her go to the manor to rest her heart for a while. Seeing that the Emperor’s promotion will pass down, we will live in the Capital in the future. Although she is a concubine, she can still influence the reputation of the Cao family. If she can raise her temperament, we can avoid any trouble in the future.”

“But no one has lived in the manor for a long time. Some things may not be complete, but if Concubine Zhou is not used to living in such a place....” Concubine Zhou always complained. If she directly sent people to the manor, she would write back and cry in two days. At that time, it would be hard for Cao Yunnian to be soft-hearted. It would be better to block the way for her now.

“How can you allow her to do so many things? Madam is calm and tolerant of them. In the future, when she entered the Capital, she must put more restrictions on herself. After all, those people are all nobles, and if she is to offend them accidentally, she will only cause trouble.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to Old Master.”

Seeing that Lady Jin was about to be out of confinement, the imperial government sent down the decree to promote Cao Yunnian. The order to transfer Cao Yunnian to the Capital, join the inspector’s office. His official position was the fourth rank, which was a big step forward.

At the same time, Li Munian also settled down in Jingling City. He came with the order to take over the position of the Jingling Salt Transport Envoy. In another month, after the handover of the things in hand, Cao Yunnian and Lady Jin would set off for the Capital. If they want to come to the Cao family’s residence in the Full Moon Banquet, they will meet the new Salt Transport Envoy.

When Mu Yunyao heard the news, she didn’t take it to heart. Recently, the items from Liu Liang have been coming back continuously. She had to carefully look through it a few times every day to organize the news. She just picked out what was useful to her. Jin Qiao helped stack the paper neatly and asked Mu Yunyao in confusion, “Miss, the flowers and plants you gathered have already been placed in Jin Xiu Garden’s greenhouse. The weather is still too cold now, the flowers and plants are already delicate and tender, not to mention raising them, it’s very troublesome to raise them, it’s also too difficult to make them blossom. Can you really use them?”

“I went to the greenhouse to take a look, and the person who once operated this Jin Xiu Garden was also very meticulous. The place has everything, and after a short rest, it will convert into a greenhouse. With a greenhouse, it’s much easier to raise flowers and plants, not to mention the fact that it’s already near spring, even if it’s windy and snowy outside, the flowers would still blossom brilliantly.”

Incurable Chapter 1 Part 1

The rainy season is coming in the summer of June.

Under the black sky, the dripping rain created a gloomy atmosphere. The raindrops rushed down, and soon, the dry ground became wet.

The car’s wheel skimmed over the wet pavement at high speed, splashing a string of droplets. They could hear the doctors’ and family members’ frantic cries in the emergency room.

Mu Wan was holding an umbrella and carrying a hot cone box. The heat from the congee emits through the paper box, dissipating the hospital’s gloomy air.

“I’m here. What floor are you on?” Mu Wan closed her umbrella and walked across the crowd towards the elevator.

On the phone, Lin Wei said the floor number and ward number. Mu Wan pressed the elevator button. It had just ascended to the 12th floor, and there was still some time to come down.

The rain outside was getting heavier, and traffic accidents are prone to occur on rainy days. Due to traffic accidents, many people get injured and covered with blood.

The cries of family members, the patient’s painful groaning, and the sounds of the treating medical staff mixed to make a lively and sad voice clear through the lobby.

Lin Wei was still talking about something. While Mu Wan answered her quietly, her eyes followed a patient into the noisy and busy ward nearby.

This ward was large, and the thick iron door was open. People came and went inside the room.

Mu Wan glanced a few times, and the depressing atmosphere inside made her slightly uncomfortable. She closed her eyes and prepared to continue waiting for the elevator. When she wants to take back her eyes, her eyes look in a different direction.

In the chaotic ward, two people stood in front of the hospital bed with bandages on their bodies. A boy, covered in blood, lies on the bedstead, with his face blue and lifeless.

A doctor and a nurse stood on the other side of the bed, but they did not treat the boy. The nurse looked down, and her eyes were a bit red. The male doctor beside her bent slightly and held the boy’s hand, which was mixed with blood and mud.

The doctor’s appearance was striking, with high eyebrows, clear eyes, a straight nose, and thin lips. He gave off a feeling like bamboo leaves washed away by rain, hidden in the dense bamboo forest, but the leaves were nonetheless vivid and delicate. He emitted a detached temperament as the separate shelter. Although he was in the epicenter of chaos, he was also like a remote mountain detached from the world of chaos, absolutely noble and solitary.

He held the boy’s hand, and the cuffs of his white coat, stained with a few drops of blood, gradually dried up. He didn’t care about that. His slender fingers wrapped around the boy’s hands, his eyes drooping, and his face was calm.

Just then, the depression eased slightly. Mu Yan’s eyelids blinked, and she remembered a memory from a few years back.

A passenger died suddenly in the waiting room of a train station a few years ago. A monk suddenly held the dead passenger and performed ceremonies for his soul to ascend.

There is no shortage of deaths in the hospital, but when the doctor releases the boy’s hand and puts the white cloth on the boy’s head, Mu Wan’s heart is slightly chilled. Then, both the men and women beside him cried out sadly.

At the same time, the doctor seemed to be aware of her presence and looked up.

His eyes were calm and deep, sweeping gently, like a bamboo forest wind sweeping through her heart. Mu Yan was a little stunned and retracted her gaze.

The elevator loudly made a “ding” sound and reached the first floor. Mu Wan raised her eyes and checked the words “Emergency Room” above the ward. She asked Lin Wei, “In your building, have an Emergency Room?”

“What emergency room? Which building are you in?”

“The one right in front of the hospital gate.”

“That’s the Emergency Building! I’m in the Inpatient Department!”

“…”

When she arrived at Lin Wei’s ward, Mu Wan put aside her umbrella and saw that Lin Wei had already spread out a small table for dinner. She cut her appendix two days ago and could only eat liquid food. When Mu Wan still had to be shot in other places. she complained that the taste of plain congee in the hospital was unsatisfactory. Mu Wan just returned to Xiacheng after filming. After putting down her luggage, she went to Xu Ji Congee Shop to buy her favorite congee and came to see her.

“How do you feel? Does it still hurt?” Mu Wan laid out bowls and chopsticks for Lin Wei and pulled a chair to sit down.

She had just returned from Wencheng, where there was no rain, and it was still hot, so she only wore a black T-shirt and white shorts. When she sits down, her legs overlap, so her posture looks relaxed and lazy.

Mu Wan was an 18-line actress with a very delicate appearance. She had an oval face, a beautiful nose, red lips, and a small chin. Her dark and clear eyes were charming but not sultry. She was tall, 1.7 meters, with long legs and a slender waist. She had big breasts and buttocks, well-proportioned and slim but not too thin. All around, she had a perfect figure.

She had a wild look and the gorgeousness of a Hong Kong actress in the 1980s. Her beautiful, elegant, and non-vulgar character demonstrates her high level.

“As long as I don’t touch the wound, it doesn’t hurt.” Lin Wei was eating the congee, and her mouth was burning. After eating, she looked at Mu Wan, looking out the window. She didn’t know what Mu Wan was thinking right now.

“What are you thinking?” Lin Wei waved a spoon in front of Mu Wan’s eyes.

The rain outside the window became lighter, and the heavy raindrops on the edge rolled down, rolled over the glass window, and left a meandering watermark, like the doctors who go back and forth in the Emergency Room.

“When I was waiting for the elevator, I saw a doctor who seemed to be performing prayers on a dead boy.” Mu Wan looked back and told Lin Wei about the male doctor in the Emergency Room.

Doctors must save people. They want to help people live, but they also can help them when they die. These two words are related to each other. They were very conflicted together. However, Lin Wei was not surprised. Her eyes lit up as she asked Mu Wan, “Is Doctor Liu handsome?”

“You know him then. Indeed, he’s very handsome.” Mu Wan smiled and recalled the male doctor’s face at that time. His face was very gentle, making a deep impression, especially when he looked at her.

“His name is Liu Qianxiu, a surgeon, and he had nicknamed Liu Daochang. (TN: Dao Chang = Taoist Priest) He is the emotional support for the entire group of females in Tang’er Hospital.” Her colleagues sent Lin Wei to the Emergency Room a few days ago. It was Liu Qianxiu who diagnosed her.

It was so painful at that time. However, Lin Wei took the nurse’s hand after the operation and asked many questions.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 183

~ SAFE GIVING BIRTH ~ 

 
“Good, good, good!” Cao Yunnian said those three words and laughed out loud. Then, he wanted to enter the delivery room without a care in the world. “I’m going to visit Madam. It’s been hard on her!” 

Mu Yunyao hurriedly stopped her father, “Father, you don’t need to worry. Mother has just finished giving birth, and there are still many things in the delivery room that haven’t been cleaned up yet. Moreover, your body has cold energy. I’m afraid that if you go in, it will freeze my little brother. You can change your clothes first, and I’ll ask people to tidy up the delivery room.”

Cao Yunnian looked down and discovered that he was still wearing his official uniform. He hurriedly lifted his head and said, “I was so worried that I was confused. I just got back from the administrative office and didn’t even have time to change my clothes. It’s not appropriate to wear this to see Madam. I’ll go to change it.”

“Alright.”

Mu Yunyao returned to the delivery room once again and discovered that Lady Jin was already asleep from exhaustion. The child was also sleeping sweetly by her side. His face was slightly red, and he looked a little wrinkled. He looked a little ugly, but he didn’t lose his cuteness.

Mu Yunyao went up to take Lady Jin’s pulse. Perhaps it was because she was too tired that she still hadn’t woken up.

Yin Hong figure walked in and knelt and kowtowed to Mu Yunyao directly.

Mu Yunyao hurriedly motioned to Jin Lan and Jin Qiao to help her up. She hissed lightly before bringing them to the outer room. “What is Sister Yin Hong doing?”

“This servant, thanks to Young Miss. If I didn’t have Miss’s help today, I’m afraid Mistress and Young Master would have been in danger.” She had seen the actions of Concubine Zhou and the midwife. If it wasn’t for Mu Yunyao, Young Master definitely unable to survive even if he didn’t die.

“I naturally wouldn’t watch my adoptive mother and younger brother suffer. If you say thank you, then it would be a foreign matter.”

“Yes, it’s all my fault that I was too agitated. For a moment, I couldn’t think of any words to say. Please forgive me, Miss.”

“You were loyal to my adoptive mother, and it was all thanks to you taking care of her that her body was healthy. When you get the reward, don’t forget to treat me to tea.” Yin Hong was overwhelmed by the favor. Since Mu Yunyao’s current identity was a master that owned the notorious tea house in Jiangnan, she could naturally find everything what kind of tea she wanted. Just now, when she said that, she was merely showing her intimacy with Yin Hong. “Yes, when I go to Bu Xian Luo, I will invite Young Miss to drink the most expensive tea.”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but smile. “Then you’ve earned it. I’ll personally make the most expensive tea in Bu Xian Luo. When the time comes, I’ll treat you. However, you still have to pay for the tea.”

“Yes, of course,” her cheeks were slightly red, “I can buy you a few drinks, Young Miss!”

“That’s great. I’ll remember it.”

After sleeping for more than two hours, Lady Jin finally woke up. When she woke up, she saw that the sky was already completely dark. Mu Yunyao was sitting on a chair not far away from her.

“Mother, you’re awake? Yin Hong, go and bring the soup over, then inform Father.”

“Yes, Miss.”

“Yao’er, you’ve been tired all day. I thought you were going back to rest?”

“I was worried because I didn’t see Mother wake up, so I stayed for a while longer.” Mu Yunyao got up and sat on the bedside before lifting the child up and placing it on Lady Jin’s bosom.

Lady Jin was so nervous that she was at a loss for what to do. Fortunately, the child was exceptionally well-behaved in his sleep. “He’s sleeping soundly. I wonder how much fright we’ve received because of him.”

While speaking, the child suddenly woke up and began to cry with a frown on his forehead. Mu Yunyao instantly panicked and couldn’t help but widen her eyes as she stood up and took a step back.

Lady Jin was initially nervous. But when she saw Mu Yunyao’s expression, she was slightly stunned before laughing out loud. Previously, when Lady Jin saw her calm appearance, Lady Jin thought that Mu Yunyao wasn’t nervous. But in fact, it seemed that she was forcing herself not to show it. “Yin Hong, go and call the wet nurse over.”

Only after that Mu Yunyao react, and she looked a little embarrassed. She hurriedly changed the topic. “Mother, could this wet nurse can you really trust?” After seeing Lady Jin’s experiences of being pregnant and having children all the way, Mu Yunyao was a little overwhelmed.

“She was once my maid and had always been loyal to me. When she reached her age, I helped her with a good marriage. Now that her whole family is serving in residence, I can trust them.”

“That’s good.”

Soon, the wet nurse walked over. Mu Yunyao sized her up, and when she saw her clear eyes and clean hands, she couldn’t help but nod to herself as the wet nurse carried the child with professional movements.

The child’s appetite was small. By the time Cao Yunnian arrived, the wet nurse had already fed the child and put him on the bed.

Mu Yunyao also tactfully stood up to take her to leave. “Father, Mother, it’s getting late. If there’s anything else, we can talk about it in the future. I’ll be taking my leave first.”

“Alright,” Lady Jin also knew that there was no need to be in such a rush, so she ordered Yin Hong, “Take Young Miss safely back home.”

“Yes, Madam. Please rest assured.”

When they returned home, Su Qing came to welcome them. “Yao’er, how is Lady Jin?”

“Mother, you don’t need to worry. Although it was a bit dangerous, both mother and child were safe and sound in the end.”

“Amitabha, that’s good. It’s so difficult for Lady Jin to give birth to her child. It’s a good thing that she’s safe and sound.”

Mu Yunyao recounted her experiences in the Cao Family’s residence. When Su Qing heard this, she sighed, “I really don’t understand. I don’t understand how a child could attract so many people’s hatred!” Without the Jin Family’s support, even Concubine Zhou wouldn’t dare to act so blatantly.

“Who knows what’s going on in the big family?” Mu Yunyao shook her head. She didn’t know what the Jin Family was thinking. Could it be that if Lady Jin didn’t have any children, she would fully support the Jin family? If it was her, she never has a grudge on such a thing.

Knowing that Lady Jin needed some rest, Su Qing did not rush to visit her. She waited until three days later before following Mu Yunyao to the Cao Family’s residence.

Lady Jin looked much better. At this time, she was leaning against the bed and holding her baby. Seeing Su Qing and Mu Yunyao coming in, with a smile on her face, she said, “Sister Su, please come and help me to have a look. He always falls asleep and doesn’t wake up very much.” She also repeatedly told Yin Hong to watch the tea in her seat.

Su Qing could not help but smile, “It’s a good thing. Children can grow fast by eating and sleeping.”

Lady Jin heaved a sigh of relief. She raised her child for the first time, and she was so nervous. She would wake up several times during the night to check if the child was still breathing. As Su Qing and Lady Jin discussed raising a child, Mu Yunyao sat to the side and listened quietly. Her eyes were curved, and from beginning to end, they filled with a smile. From Su Qing’s words, she could imagine how she looked when she was just born. She also could feel her mother’s strong love for her. Just thinking about it made her feel extremely happy.

Lady Jin and Su Qing discussed the parenting experience for a long time. Until Su Qing asked to resign, she still had some meaning. “Sister Su, in the next two days, you will have to visit me frequently. As for taking care of children, I really don’t have any experience, so I would like to ask for your advice.”

“Alright, but Madam still needs to rest more. Do not fall sick in confinement. Otherwise, you will regret it for the rest of your life.”

“I’ll listen to you.” Lady Jin nodded.

Mu Yunyao followed Su Qing and left. After she got into the carriage, she couldn’t help but ask about how his childhood was, “Mother, how I used to be when I was so young?”

“When you were just born, you were like a little kitten with your hands on your palms. The villagers all said that you could not be raised and advised me to throw you away. But Mother thought that I could nurture you well, so no one listened. Your father also doted on me and did his best to buy medicinal ingredients for me. I never thought that you could really grow up so well, and even looks like a flower and like jade now....” Mu Yunyao leaned on Su Qing’s shoulder, the smile in her eyes gradually deepened.

There was a custom in Xiayan Village that a child that couldn’t grow up must not die at home. This would bring about bad luck and would make future children hard to raise. Mother was able to keep her at that time, so the rumors she was carrying around were not small, “Mother, you are very kind.”

“Silly girl, what are you thinking about again? Alright, it’s all over now. You’re fine. Mother is happier than anything else.”

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 182

~ LADY JIN GIVING BIRTH SAFELY ~ 

 
Seeing that Mu Yunyao, with her tender age, blocked the bed and tried her best to protect her made Lady Jin couldn’t help but cry. She was so glad that she and Mu Yunyao had met that day and formed a good relationship and that she accepted this adopted daughter.

Mu Yunyao’s aura was so strong that it pressured the two midwives until their faces went pale, “We.... Naturally, we hope that Madam will be able to give birth safely.”

“This is the best way. If my adoptive mother was giving birth safely, you all will take the silver taels back home and live a good life for the whole family. On the contrary, if anything were to happen to her, not only would the two of you lose your lives, even the entire family would not be able to escape punishment!” After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she turned around to help Lady Jin feel her pulse. “Mother, don’t worry. Your pulse is stable, and everything is going smoothly. I’ve already told Jin Lan and Jin Qiao to cook. You should close your eyes and rest first. I definitely won’t let anything happen to you and my little brother.”

“Alright, Yao’er. Mother believes in you.” Lady Jin closed her eyes and secretly decided in her heart. From now on, she will do her best to protect Mu Yunyao’s life!

Seeing that Lady Jin’s condition was stable, Mu Yunyao calmed down a little. Soon, Jin Lan and Jin Qiao brought in some food and said, “Miss, take a look.”

Mu Yunyao took the plate and looked at it. The two of them made some exquisite snacks, which were very convenient to eat while lying down, “Mother, eat something first. Otherwise, you won’t have any strength left.”

“Alright.” Lady Jin quickly nodded and ate half a plate of snacks from Mu Yunyao’s hand and then drank half a cup of warm water. She felt her body gain a bit of strength, and at this moment, the pain in her stomach grew even more intense, and she couldn’t help but groan.

Mu Yunyao touched her stomach, and a frown appeared between her brows.

Seeing her expression, Lady Jin tensed up. “Yao’er, is there a problem with the child?”

“Younger brother has a lively personality and is dishonest in Mother’s stomach, so he’s in a slightly improper position right now. I’ll push him a few times and let him turn around on his own. Mother, please don’t be too nervous.”

“Alright.”

Mu Yunyao turned her head to look at the two midwives on the ground. “I’m here to turn the fetal position. The two of you come over and help my adoptive mother deliver the baby.” In her previous life, she had learned many ways to scheme against people from the Poisonous Lady, especially in women. When a woman gives birth, if you move your hands and feet a little, you can kill two lives, and no trace can found of their death. If your hands were slightly more strenuous when you transferred the fetal to the normal position, she would not be allowed to give birth to the child, and the baby would have some disabilities. Also, she has prone to blood collapse. Therefore, Mu Yunyao better does it herself.

Mu Yunyao scolded the two midwives, and they had yet to recover from their shock. Hearing her instructions, they were reluctant in their hearts but did not dare express them on their face. They could only step forward and wait to see her jokes.

How could a young girl, who has not come of age, can really be better than them? It would be best if something happened, and they could take her as a scapegoat, saving them the hassle.

The two of them looked at each other, silently went forward, and waited, deliberately making Mu Yunyao lose face. Yin Hong was gnashing her teeth in hatred, but she couldn’t do anything else. She could only wait for her Mistress to finish giving birth before settling the score with them.

Mu Yunyao’s movements were soft and gentle. Even then, it was still enough to cause Lady Jin to sweat profusely.

The two midwives’ eyes filled with shock and doubt. They never thought that Mu Yunyao’s movements would be even more skillful than theirs. Seeing that the child’s head revealed, one of the midwives’ fingers trembled, gritted her teeth, and touched the child’s forehead.

The bones of a newborn child’s head were incomplete. As long as she used a bit of force to press her finger on it, most of these children will not live long. Even if they survived, they would become idiots.

Just as she was about to touch the top of the child’s head, she felt someone ruthlessly grip her wrist. Mu Yunyao’s voice was cold and carried a chill that caused one to tremble: “What do you want to do to my little brother?

“I, I was only helping to deliver the baby. Didn’t Young Miss instruct us to come over to help? If you still don’t trust us, we can go to the side and watch!”

“Yin Hong, Chun Hong, call someone to tie them up and lock them up separately. Don’t let anything happen to them. We’ll settle this debt with them slowly!”

“Yes, Miss.”

Lady Jin only felt her teeth tremble. She clenched her fists tightly with hatred, her nails pierced her palms, but she couldn’t feel any pain.

Mu Yunyao’s voice was steady, “Mother, you promised me. I’m still waiting to receive a big red envelope!”

“ ....Alright, I will definitely give it to you....”

Mu Yunyao looked calm on the surface, but she was actually very flustered in her heart. Even though she had learned from Poisonous Lady, she had never truly delivered the baby by hand. Her fingers gently supported the child’s head, using her strength with extreme care, afraid of causing him any harm. Fortunately, the child’s head came out, and then it went smoothly.

Less than the time she took to make a cup of tea, Lady Jin fiercely bit her lips and exerted all her strength. She felt her body relax as the child carefully carried by Mu Yunyao. Jin Lan and Jin Qiao at the side hurriedly took a cloth and a blanket to come over. Mu Yunyao helped the child cut off the umbilical cord and quickly wiped off the blood on his body. She then cleaned the amniotic fluid in his mouth and nose before lightly patting his little feet, and a loud cry came out.

The sound was like the sun piercing through the thick clouds, abruptly spilling onto the ground, causing Lady Jin to burst into tears immediately, and her entire body couldn’t help but tremble. Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief. In such a short time, cold sweat ran down her back. Holding the soft child in her arms, she could only feel her heart aching, her eyes turning slightly red: Mother gave birth to her. It was definitely not easy at that time, using all the strength of the whole body, even if she was risking her life, she hopes to keep her safe.

Mu Yunyao wrapped the child up and placed him beside Lady Jin before quickly cleaning up the bloodstains and other things. Although she was afraid, it was fortunate that Mu Yunyao had arrived in time, and the following treatment was especially appropriate. Although Lady Jin was tired, she was still in good spirits as she looked at the infant in her arms, and she smiled with tears in her eyes: “Yao’er, I don’t even know how to thank you. If you don’t come today, I’m afraid it will be....”

“Mother, don’t be sad. You and my little brother are safe and sound. From now on, you are going to be in confinement. Don’t cry anymore. Otherwise, your eyes will hurt.”

“Alright, I understand.”

“Then please close your eyes and rest for a while. I’ll go out and report the good news to Father.”

“Alright.”

Cao Yunnian, who was outside, did not stop his footsteps. When he saw Mu Yunyao come out, he quickly went up to her and asked, “Yao’er, how is Madam?”

He had just suffered a lot outside and had not realized many things before. Now he wanted to understand them. When he first found out that Lady Jin unable to bear children, he was sad and resentful. However, after many years of being married to each other, he gradually put this matter down.

Now that Lady Jin got pregnant suddenly, it was more like a surprise to him. He was looking forward to the children, but he even more hoped that Lady Jin would be safe. He even thought that once Mu Yunyao came out to ask him if she should protect the child or protect the adult, he would not hesitate to decide to protect Lady Jin. Mu Yunyao smiled. “Don’t worry, Father. Both Mother and little brother are well.”
