Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 237

~ THE NEWS SPREAD ~ 

Wen Mama secretly raised her brows. Was she dissatisfied with the Su family?

She thought in her heart, but her face remained calm, and she still respectfully said: “Return to Madam, for so many years, the Old Madam has never given up looking for you. It’s just that the distance from the Capital to Yan City. Even though the Old Madam has extraordinary abilities, she can’t do anything about it. She has been looking for you by an inch, but no news from Madam over the years. Fortunately, Old Madam had heard from time to time about the rich man, Lord Zhang, in Xiayan Village.

It was only after some investigation that Madam’s background seemed to be related to the Su family. Later on, she wanted to find a person to verify it for her. However, Madam and Young Miss have disappeared, and there was no trace of you. Fortunately, the heavens pitied us. Later, the Old Madam learned that the two of you were in Jingling City, so she hurriedly sent our servants over.”

Su Qing nodded her head as if she had accepted her word, “Then how can the Su family be so sure that I am the biological daughter that Old Madam lost before? After all, when I disappeared, I was still a baby, so there was no trace at all in this appearance. My adoptive father and adoptive mother also have never mentioned what physical evidence left on me?”

“In fact, there is physical evidence, but Madam’s adoptive parents secretly sold it for silver.” As she spoke, Wen Mama took out a jade pendant from her sleeve along with a yellowing piece of paper. “Madam, please take a look. This jade pendant is the Old Madam’s dowry. There are two identical pieces like this because the Old Madam has two daughters. These two jade pendants had respectively given to you and the Second Miss, but your adoptive father and adoptive mother secretly sold the jade pendant. Fortunately, they were not completely unintentional. They spent a few cents to find talent at the time and painted the jade pendant, which is enough to prove the identity of Madam.”

Mu Yunyao sneered in her heart. The Second Miss named by Wen Mama is Su Jin, the second daughter of the Old Madam. On the surface, she looked respectful, but the estrangement in the speech is very definite. Wen Mama called her mother Madam Su, but she called Su Jin as Second Miss.

Su Qing nodded her head. After carefully checking the jade pendant and the paper, she finally looked excited: “Am I really the biological daughter of the Old Madam? God has pity on me. I never thought that after so many years, I would actually be able to find my own family!”

Mu Yunyao stepped forward and caressed Su Qing’s back. “Mother, don’t be too agitated. Your body isn’t well. If you are too much agitated, it can trigger an old illness. I think Grandmother will definitely be exceptionally worried.”

A smile appeared on Wen Mama’s face. “You’re right, Young Miss. You must take good care of yourself, Madam.”

Some of the maids and Mama, who came with mother Wen, had poor judgment. When they heard Mu Yunyao called the Old Madam with grandmother, their eyes couldn’t help but reveal a look of disdain: Just now, as soon as the relationship becomes established, she called their Old Madam as her grandmother to approach her. At this time, it’s hard to say how proud that girl was. She thought that she could take advantage of the Su family, borrow the Su family’s power, and enjoy the glory of being rich.

Mu Yunyao took their look in her eyes and didn’t care at all in her heart. It was the same as in her previous life. It seemed that before she returned to the Su family, the attitude of the Su family had set, from Old Madam Su to the servants in charge of cleaning up, no one had taken her seriously.

After a while, Su Qing’s expression calmed down, opened her mouth, and said to Wen Mama, “You all must have had a hard journey to come here all the way. First, settle down and rest for a few days.”

Wen Mama said with a smile, “After the Madam finds out about your whereabouts, she misses you day and night. If possible, I hope Madam and Young Miss can arrange for us to return to the Su family as soon as possible. This way, she can be at ease as soon as possible.”

Su Qing nodded her head, “My heart is also full of anxiety. After settling all the matters in Jingling City, I will follow Wen Mama on her journey back to the Capital.”

“That would be for the best.”

“Si Qin, Si Qi, you two will take Wen Mama and others to have a rest. Our small courtyard can’t accommodate so many people, so we’ll bring them all to Bu Xian Lou to rest.”

“Yes, Madam.”

“This servant will take to leave.” Wen Mama and the others followed Si Qin and Si Qin out of the room. Along the way, they sized up the surrounding scenery as they asked, “The reputation of Bu Xian Luo is well-known throughout the Capital, is there anything inappropriate about us, the servants, living in that place?”

Si Qin smiled and said, “Rest assured, Mama. The news spread outside are nothing but rumors. Bu Xian Luo is the property of Madam and Miss, so it’s just a matter of one sentence to drive out all the guests inside, not to mention just a few people.”

“It was not easy to do business. We feel at ease if we don’t disturb Madam and Miss.”

She couldn’t say a word, which made Wen Mama’s heart even more uncertain. When she saw Su Qing and Mu Yunyao, she already felt that these two people were very excellent. But even the maidservants around them are not leaking every move ...,

Steward Qin led his people out and said, “Miss Si Qin, Miss Si Qi, did you two not serve in front of Madam?”

“Greetings, Steward Qin. These few people from the Su family of the Capital. Madam ordered that they should temporarily stay in Bu Xian Luo for the time being.”

“Yes, I will make the necessary arrangements.” Steward Qin responded and turned back to invite Si Cha. “Open Bu Xian Luo?”

Bu Xian Lou has been open for such a long time. Most people drink tea in various scenic spots of Jin Xiu Garden. Very few people can enter Bu Xian Luo, which makes many people think of Bu Xian Luo as the symbol of Jin Xiu Garden, and forget that it is also a place for entertaining guests.

Today, the guests are puzzled to see a group of servants brought into Bu Xian Luo. Although Wen Mama and the maidservants were dressed in exquisite clothing and had an impressive bearing, most of those who might come here to drink tea weren’t ordinary individuals. It was easy to guess their identity just by looking at their manner.

Once Wen Mama and the others settled down in Bu Xian Luo, the news of BU Xian Luo’s opening spread like wildfire throughout the entire Jingling City. Thus, many people began to investigate their identities.

In such a short time, news of Su Qing being a member of the Su family spread like wildfire throughout the Capital city. Even Wen Mama and the others’ expressions on their faces had been described vividly as to when they had arrived at Jingling City and visited the Su Residence.

That afternoon, Li Munian’s wife, the salt transport envoy, came to Bu Xian Luo to drink tea.

Mu Yunyao naturally personally received them and led Lady Zhou through the drizzling rain.

Lady Zhou sized up the surroundings and could not help but sigh in admiration. “The scenery here is really unique, especially this fake mountain stream. The mountain rocks are rugged, and the waterfall is flowing down. If there was sunlight, you could see seven rainbow colors, and you can never find a better place than here.”

“Thank you for your compliments, Madam. This place is newly created scenery, and Madam is the first guest to come to drink your tea.” Mu Yunyao’s face was full of smiles, causing people to feel incomparably comfortable from just looking at her.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 236

~ THE ARRIVAL OF THE SU FAMILY ~ 

Hearing Liu Liang’s words, Mu Yunyao felt a rumbling in her heart. A rock heavily fell onto the ground, causing her whole person to suddenly relaxing. Her previous nervousness and anxiety instantly disappeared like a tide, replaced by an ice-cold hatred and killing intent.

She had waited so long and planned so much. She walked forward cautiously and not daring to make the slightest mistake. What she was waiting for was to return to the Su family’s residence and make those people who had persecuted her in her past life pay the price one by one!

Mu Yunyao stood up, and her movements were unhurried as she rearranged her unwrinkled sleeves and skirt. Her lips curled up slightly, and she said with a perfect curve, “Go invite him in and arrange him in the parlor. Mother and I will go there shortly.”

“Yes, Miss.”

“Yao’er?” Su Qing’s heart tightened, and even her face turned pale. Her body was still trembling uncontrollably, but at a glance, she looked very nervous.

Mu Yunyao held her hand, her eyes filled with determination: “Mother, we are going to return to the Su family and meet our relatives. We should be happy.”

Looking at the expression in Mu Yunyao’s eyes, the nervousness in Su Qing’s heart subsided slightly. “You’re right. We should be happy.”

Mu Yunyao smiled widely, her watery eyes carrying a slight curve in them, blinking as if stars flashed by, “Besides, you are the biological daughter of the Su family’s Old Madam. In the Su family, other than the Old Madam and the current Patriarch, Su Wen Yuan, everyone else must pay their respects to you when they see you. The seniority is there. If anyone dares to be rude, you can directly order people to drag them down and deal with them. “

“That’s true...”

“Mother, the Su family cherishes face, so every move and every word must have made under the rules of etiquette. The more polite people are, the better they are to get along with each other. As long as we stand based on the word etiquette, no matter who we face, we will not be afraid.”

Listening to Mu Yunyao’s unswerving tone, Su Qing gradually calmed down. She was so nervous before, and she was still affected by Mu Yunyao to some extent. Now she has a calm expression and a sweet smile, and it can even be said to be full of fighting spirit. In an instant, she felt that it was no big deal: “Alright, Mother will listen to you. Since that’s the case, let’s head over.”

At this moment, in the parlor, a dozen or so maidservants were standing. On the guest chair, a woman in a blue dress sitting upright. She was sitting in a steady posture with a smile on her lips. Her gaze swept over the furnishings in the entire parlor and then lowered her eyes slightly, covering the light in her eyes.

Footsteps came from the door. The woman in the guest seat did not move. The maidservants standing behind her did not move at all.

Mu Yunyao holds Su Qing’s arm and walks into the parlor. At a glance, she sees Wen Mama sitting in the guest seat. When she saw Wen Mama, a cold intent flashed in her heart. This Wen Mama was the Old Madam’s favorite person and had followed her for the longest time, so her thoughts were the most profound and unfathomable. In her previous life, the Su family had only dispatched second-class Mama and maids to pick her up. This time, they had actually sent a senior servant, Wen Mama, to pick her up, which was somewhat unexpected.

Su Qing originally wanted to stand down and speak, but Mu Yunyao helped her continue walking inside and directly indicating that she should sit in the main seat on the left.

Muyunyao settled Su Qing, motioned her to be calm for a while, and then sat down on the right side. She looked at Wen Mama with a smile and did not intend to open her mouth to speak.

The atmosphere froze for a moment. After a few breaths, Wen Mama stood up and led the crowd to greet Su Qing and Mu Yunyao. “Greetings, Madam. Greetings, Miss.” There was a smile on her face like the solemn atmosphere from before had absolutely disappeared, and the rules were remarkably considerate.

The smile on Mu Yunyao’s lips deepened as she turned her head to wink at Su Qing.

Su Qing nodded and said, “There’s no need to be so courteous. I wonder who you are and what is your purpose in coming to see us?”

Mother Wen stood up with a pure smile on her face:

“This servant called Wen Mama. I’ve come this time to bring Madam and Miss back. You don’t know that for so many years, the Old Madam has been thinking about you. I don’t know how many tears have flowed down her face secretly.”

A puzzled expression appeared on Su Qing’s face, “Wen Mama? I’ve never seen you before, so I wonder what you mean by this?”

Wen Mama looked up with a smile. With just a glance, Su Qing felt like Wen Mama had scrutinized her from beginning to end. “Madam, this is a long story. There is a letter from the Old Madam here. Please have a look.”

In front of her, Su Qing had a gentle smile on her face. She wore a light purple lotus leaf pattern dress that accentuated her elegance. In particular, her pair of eyes had a calm color. When you look at it, you can’t see it clearly.

By her side, Mu Yunyao’s appearance was even more gorgeous. Even though she was fourteen years old, her figure had yet to fully developed, and she was already like a lotus that had just bloomed. She is charming and elegant. That face seemed could emit light, as white as flawless jade, as tender as scented cream, and as radiant as the eyes, eyebrows, and facial features. The smile on her face was pure and brilliant, which made people who saw it feel involuntarily imprinted to their hearts.

Even the maids beside the two of them had an exceptional bearing, which not one bit inferior to the first-class servant girls from the Su family.

The more she looked at it, the more Wen Mama’s heart sank. She thought Su Qing and Mu Yunyao both grew up in the countryside. Even if they happen to have a reputation for one or two points, they were only lucky. But now, it seems that these two people are no worse than those madams and ladies in Capital. In particular, Mu Yunyao’s appearance wasn’t the most beautiful one, but she was definitely the most attractive. When she fully matured, who knew how many noble ladies would get suppressed to the point where they would absolutely lose all limelight.

While Wen Mama thinking, Su Qing had finished reading the letter in her hand and handed it to Mu Yunyao. The content of the letter looked very moving. It clearly depicts the events that had occurred at the time Su Qing was lost. It also expressed Old Madam Su’s longing for her daughter. She was unmistakably sincere and made her seem like a mother who missed her daughter, but she can’t see her. Even Mu Yunyao felt touched when she saw it.

When Wen Mama saw the expressions of Su Qing and Mu Yunyao and saw that their faces were calm, she couldn’t help but feel displeased. According to her thoughts, after they found out about her relationship with the Su family, they should be exceptionally excited. But now, they look as if they have nothing to do with their relationship with the Su family.

Seeing that Mu Yunyao had finished reading the letter, Su Qing opened her mouth and said, “Wen Mama, I grew up in a poverty family. The countryside people don’t understand so many rules and regulations, so I’ll be straightforward if I have something to say.”

“Madam, please speak.”

Su Qing said casually: “Although I am far away in Jingling City, the Su family is famous, and I have heard of Lord Su’s reputation for a long time. Logically, with the Su family’s reputation, they shouldn’t be hiding it from me, but I am curious, why did the Su family only find me after so many years have passed?”

Incurable Chapter 12 Part 2

The kitten room was kept at a constant temperature, which was not too hot. Liu Qianxiu looked at Mu Wan for a long time, then put down the kitten and said, “I’m going to cook.”

Mu Wan watched Liu Qianxiu’s figure leave.

His reaction was in line with her expectations. Mu Wan didn’t directly flirt but wanted to do it bit by bit. He slowly spiked Liu Qianxiu until he liked her, too.

She was the only one in the kitten’s room. Mu Wan looked back at the cat litter and still felt hot. She touched her warm face and said to the kitten in the cat litter: “Ertong, Zhongfen, when are you two going to open your eyes?”

It seemed that it heard Mu Wan’s call. After Mu Wan and Liu Qianxiu had dinner, Zhongfen’s eyes opened. It’s a mixture of black and white, its eyes look more beautiful than Datou’s eyes, and it also has light gold.

Zhongfen is the youngest of the three kittens. He is frail and ill and has also been hospitalized. However, its eyes had opened, while Ertong’s eyes had not moved. Two of them opened their eyes, meowing, and the little fluffy balls lit up by their eyeballs became more lovely.

Looking away from Ertong, Mu Wan looked up at Liu Qianxiu and asked, “Will Ertong’s eyes open tomorrow?” Mu Wan fed the kitten, and Liu Qianxiu didn’t go in. He stood outside the kitten’s room and looked down at the three little ones in the cat litter. After dinner, Liu Qianxiu went to the bedroom to change his clothes, which were made of cotton and linen. He also wore light brown trousers with wide sleeves and wide legs. It was comfortable and elegant. Liu Qianxiu’s slender body supported his clothes, which smelled like a fairy style. “Ertong will open its eyes tonight.” Liu Qianxiu replied.

He said tonight, but she still needs to figure out what time. Mu Wan looked at the time and stood up after shaking the empty milk bottle. She glanced at the time again, and it was at half-past eight. Mu Wan walked out of the kitten room, stood beside Liu Qianxiu like a red rose, and handed it to his eyes.

“What time do you usually rest?” Mu Wan asked.

He didn’t know what she intended, so Liu Qianxiu only replied.

“Ten o’clock.”

“Ah.” Mu Wan opened her lips a bit, expressing her clarity. She raised her eyes slightly, her gaze shifted momentarily, and then she asked hesitantly: “Can I wait until half-past nine? I don’t want to keep you from rest and won’t bother you. I only want to look at Ertong’s eyes.”

After speaking, Mu Wan sensed something was wrong. Liu Qianxiu should sit cross-legged and meditate when it is ten o’clock. It’s his time to be alone, and he should hate someone disrupting his life.

She can infiltrate his life a bit, but she can’t make him hate her, so it’s counterproductive.

She frowned slightly. When Mu Wan was about to speak, Liu Qianxiu interrupted her and said, “Yes.”

Mu Wan raised her eyebrows and raised her eyes to look at Liu Qianxiu. The latter’s expression did not change. He took the bottle in her hand and cleaned it before leaving the cat’s room.

For an hour, Mu Wan, who got the consent, hadn’t always stayed in the kitten room. Muwan waited long in the kitten’s room, but Ertong fell asleep in the cat litter. She also got up and went out of the cat’s room.

The lights in the living room were off. Only the desk lamp on the low table was on. The soft light released from under the lampshade cut the darkness into a circle of light.

Under the halo, the light shone, and Liu Qianxiu sat cross-legged in front of the lamp with a book in hand, looking at it calmly.

Liu Qianxiu’s appearance is too pale, not because his facial features are shallow. On the contrary, the shadow divides his face under the light into bright and dark sides. Along the forehead, his brow bones and nose bridge form a three-dimensional, making his face a sharp facial line.

However, his temperament is light. No matter how sharp his facial features are, they are subservient to his light personality, becoming pure and indifferent, tranquil and far-reaching.

Mu Wan’s slow heartbeat began to accelerate again.

She stood there, quietly looking at Liu Qianxiu. When he turned the page, he looked up and saw her. Mu Wan’s lips slightly opened when he discovered her, and she pointed to the kitten room: “Ertong is sleeping.”

She was a little bored.

Liu Qianxiu didn’t change his movements and asked, “Do you want to read a book?”

“Okay.” Mu Wan removed her shoes, walked barefoot, and sat cross-legged with him.

The couch was not too small, and Liu Qianxiu was quiet enough to use it alone. If Mu Wan sat there, it wouldn’t feel too crowded. After she walked over, she sat beside Liu Qianxiu and glanced at the book in Liu Qianxiu’s hand. The book’s layout is vertical, the pages are yellowing, and they look old.

“What book are you reading?” Mu Wan stretched her neck slightly, leaning forward, and her eyelids closed.

Liu Qianxiu handed over the book in his hand, and Mu Wan touched it and flicked the pages with her finger, feeling indescribable.

This book looks like an ancient book.

After getting the book, Mu Wan came back to her senses afterwards. Although there are few things in Liu Qianxiu’s living room, they all have a taste of ancient simplicity. It doesn’t look like high imitation antiques during decoration, but it seems true.

For example, this side table has looked like antique furniture for many years. It is inconspicuous at first glance. However, when Mu Wan approached it, exquisite carved patterns were on it, and there was a faint smell of sandalwood.

The murals on the wall in the living room are not like the ones painted later. Instead, they look like they were cut from somewhere and embedded. Lin Wei was a fine arts student, and she influenced Mu Wan. She thought that the painting method of this mural was very classical. The whole mural is full of introverted beauty.

Like the gods in the figure paintings, Liu Qianxiu’s exposure to these antiquities is elegant, sacred, and out of reach.

Looking at Liu Qianxiu, Mu Wan gradually lost consciousness.

The book handed to her didn’t turn the page. After a while, Liu Qianxiu raised his eyes to look at her and met Mu Wan’s gaze looking at him. This time, Mu Wan didn’t look away. The two of them looked at each other, and she laughed openly.

Liu Qianxiu glanced at the Book of Ethics, “Tao Te Ching,” in her hand, raised his eyes, and asked her, “Why don’t you read the book?”

Mu Wan looked at The Book of Ethics, “Tao Te Ching,” in her hand. It was hard to understand classical Chinese and traditional characters. Mu Wan couldn’t recognize all the letters, so she ignored them.

“I don’t understand.”

Liu Qian’s eyebrows and eyes drooped slightly, turning the book’s page in his hand, and his fingers became transparent through the yellowed pages. With a faint tone, Liu Qianxiu said, “Look, can you understand it?”

He exposed her, but Mu Wan was not embarrassed when she shook her head and said, “I don’t understand.”

She was telling the truth. Liu Qianxiu seemed to be a doctor, a Taoist priest, and nothing. He is like a hidden master. The more you understand him, the more you feel he is unfathomable. However, he treats everyone frankly, like looking at the bottom of the pool. You can see the rock at the bottom, but you don’t know how deep it is.

It doesn’t matter how deep it is now, but she can measure it little by little. Thinking of this, Mu Wan added: “But you look better than a book.”

Liu Qianxiu raised his eyes, and Mu Wan was smiling. However, his eyes returned to the book, and there was no trace of where she just saw.

Seeing him turn back and continue to read, Mu Wan was a little bored, and the paper in her hand rustled. She put her arm on the low table, put her head on top, and looked sideways at him.

“Liu Qianxiu.” Mu Wan’s voice was sweet and delicious in the empty and quiet living room.

Liu Qianxiu didn’t lift his head but only responded with a low voice.

“Yeah.”

Mu Wan listened to his voice echoing in her ears. She raised her head, looked at the outline of his profile, and asked: “Do you like living alone, right?”

Under a lamp, the two sat down separately in a small corner. Liu Qianxiu sat upright and cross-legged, while Mu Wan’s body twisted like a snake, lazy and peaceful.

“Why do you ask that?”

Mu Wan thought, “Because you have always been alone.”

Liu Qianxiu’s throat moved slightly, and his eyes fell on the words in the book. His tone was flat, and he said lightly: “Now, there are two people.”

Incurable Chapter 12 Part 1

Mu Wan ordered stir-fried asparagus prawns and salted fried chicken wings. 

After ordering, the two of them went to the supermarket they visited together yesterday.

After seven o’clock in the evening, the supermarket was full of people, and Mu Wan looked like a drop of red ink in water. She was like a kite, drawing people’s attention, and her final position was always next to Liu Qianxiu.

Today, Mu Wan dressed up specially. Liu Qianxiu only looked at her, but he didn’t seem moved. But Mu Wan doesn’t matter because she likes him. If he doesn’t look at her, she will look at him.

In the vegetable area, Mu Wan pushed the shopping cart. With her slender white arm resting on the shopping cart’s handle, she watched Liu Qianxiu stand there and pick up the green bamboo shoots. The green bamboo shoots are thin and symmetrical, narrow at the top and broad at the bottom. They are neatly wrapped in a plastic box, covered with plastic wrap, and shining slightly under the light. The man who held the box of green bamboo shoots has cold white fingers like green bamboo shoots, which are well-defined, slender, and clean.

It’s beautiful. Mu Wan’s eyes are clear and bright, and she can’t hide her love in her eyes.

Liu Qianxiu noticed her gaze and turned his head to look at her, but Mu Wan turned her sight away. The corners of her lips had an unconcealed curvature, and her ears became slightly warm.

Liu Qianxiu turned his head back and continued to pick vegetables. Mu Wan also turned her head and continued to look at him. The two went back and forth like that. Mu Wan was full of joy.

After buying vegetables, Liu Qianxiu pushed the shopping cart in front of the line, waiting for the checkout. Mu Wan stood behind him, looking at the people around the checkout.

The checkout line was very long, but only some people were as tall as Liu Qianxiu. She looked up at his upright back and compared the width of their bodies. If Liu Qianxiu had turned around, he should have been able to wrap her body completely.

When she was merely thinking about it, Liu Qianxiu looked back. Mu Wan’s sight stopped, and she turned her head lightly toward the small shelf beside her.

The little shelves at the cash register are full of colourful snacks, such as chewing gum, mouth-clear candy, and chocolate beans in dazzling red and green packages.

Mu Wan finally saw a box of matcha-flavored chocolate beans. The green box body is simplistic and elegant. The top of the chocolate beans is wrapped in chocolate, while the inside is a light green matcha with a fresh colour.

Mu Wan looked at the bottle’s net contents and calculated how many chocolate beans were inside. In her eyesight, a hand stretched into the shelf. The well-defined fingers curled and took one of the boxes of chocolates. The box of chocolates appeared before her in the blink of an eye.

With her heartbeat jumping fast, Mu Wan raised her head and met Liu Qianxiu’s eyes.

His eyes were still calm. He looked at her and shook the chocolate in his hand. The chocolate hit the box and made a clear sound. Liu Qianxiu asked, “Either?” The chocolate melted in my heart, and Mu Wan smiled, “You want to buy it for me?”

The voice is sweeter than chocolate.
“Yeah.”

“Then I want it.”

After receiving confirmation, Liu Qianxiu retracted his gaze and turned around with the chocolate. He put the chocolate box into the shopping cart with a crisp sound.

Leaning over at Liu Qianxiu, Mu Wan looks at the chocolate surrounded by vegetables in the shopping cart. The chocolate is also green, but its colour is much lighter.
“Why did you buy this for me?” Mu Wan tilted his head and looked at him with a smile in her eyes.

Liu Qianxiu didn’t turn around. He just looked at her sideways. After meeting her eyes, he returned his gaze and said flatly, “You’ve just been staring at it.”

I was looking at you all the time. Would you give yourself to me, too?

Mu Wan laughed, but Liu Qianxiu didn’t know why she was laughing. Then, Mu Wan took her body back with a smile and her hands as if to give a hollow hug on Liu Qianxiu’s back.

Then you are mine now.

After paying the bill, Mu Wan took the chocolates, and Liu Qianxiu took the ingredients he bought. The two got in the car one after another and went home.

After he got home, Liu Qianxiu carried the ingredients into the kitchen. Mu Wan changed into her slippers and asked Liu Qianxiu if he needed help. After being denied, Mu Wan shook the chocolate box and went to the kitten’s room.

It was already dark, and the darkness enveloped the kitchen, but it was not as lonely as before. The sound of chocolate hitting the box came through the glass, adding a layer of life to the enormous house. Liu Qianxiu turned on the kitchen light, listened to the movement next door, and went to the sink.

Putting the shopping bag into the sink, Liu Qianxiu took out the spinach. A while ago, in the supermarket, Mu Wan saw that the spinach colour looked good, and finally enriched the menu and ordered a spinach egg soup.

Drops of water sprayed by supermarket steam are also on the spinach. The leaves are crisp, and the roots are covered with mud and freshwater. When Liu Qianxiu took it out, the spinach was cold, and his fingers were stained with dirt.
“Datou opened its eyes.”

MuWan’ss surprised voice came from outside the door. Liu Qianxiu turned around. Mu Wan stood at the door with her red lips rising and her eyes full of joy. Seeing Liu Qianxiu turning his back, Mu Wan stretched out her slender and beautiful finger. She pointed to the kitten room and suggested: “Would you like to go and see it.”

It had been almost ten days since the kitten was born, so it was time to open its eyes. Liu Qianxiu thought about the vegetables in the sink and his fingers, which were moist with mud. Finally, he turned on the faucet to rinse his fingers and said, “Okay.”

Mu Wan turned around and left. She walked in a hurry, and her skirt was flying. The red shadow disappeared from sight, and Liu Qianxiu followed her.

Mu Wan squatted in the kitten room, watching the three kittens lying together. The kittens had the same mother, but only Datou could half-open its eyes, and she could see the light golden pupil colour.

Maybe it was because the cat was still small or yellowish, so Datou’s eye colour was not as bright as ZhouYi’s. However, its eye colour was soft and waxy, like a crystal pumpkin cake steamed transparent by water.

While she was watching Datou, Liu Qianxiu walked into the room. Mu Wan looked up, and her eyes were full of laughter. After laughing, she reached out and held Datou in her palm.

Based on the palms of her hands and the kittens’ size, Datou had grown a bit in a few days. She held it cautiously, Datou’s eyes half-opened, its transparent pink claw opened and closed, and she cried softly. She carried Datou and handed it to his hand, then said to him: “Look.”

Mu Wan wanted Liu Qianxiu to hold onto Datou and craved to give him all her good things. Liu Qianxiu raised his eyes and glanced at her. His eyelids drooped, and he took it with his hand.

The moment when Liu Qianxiu picked it up, Mu Wan looked at him and began to laugh.
“Our two eyes looked very similar.” Mu Wan said.

Datou, in his hand, stared at him, meowing with a thin, sweet, and soft cry. Liu Qianxiu looked at Datou’s light golden eyes and then at MuWan’s eyes, which were as clean and clear as before, with a broken light.

The light in her eyes jumped slightly, MuWan’s eyes trembled, and a layer of heat floated on her face. She raised her hand and fanned her face. Then, she pointed at Datou and said, “We only have you in our eyes.”

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 235

~ MU CHENG’S CAUSE OF DEATH ~ 

Steward Qin opened his mouth and said, “Without Miss’s permission, I took the initiative to investigate the cause of death of Miss Mu’s father. Please forgive me. Your father didn’t fall overboard and die. He was killed secretly by the people who did business with him. And the person who killed your father was assassinated after he left the Capital, and no one in his family was spared. Because the time gap is too far apart, and the matter did not leave much of a clue, so at the moment, we are unable to find out who did it.”

Mu Yunyao held the paper, her eyes filled with endless coldness. “Thank you for your trouble, Steward Qin.”

“There’s another thing. There’s news from the Capital. The Su family had already received news about Madam and Miss Mu and had sent people to Xiayan Village to investigate Miss’s identity. With the ability of the Su family, it would not be long before they found out that Miss was in Jingling City, and they would send people to acknowledge her relatives.”

Mu Yunyao memorized the contents of the paper and then dissolved it into a cup of tea. “Since Steward Qin mentioned the Su family, then I also have something to tell you. If the Su family comes to fetch Mother and me, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t be able to help Bu Xian Luo.”Seeing that Mu Yunyao heard the news about the Su Family and was not the least bit surprised, Steward Qin thought for a bit, then he smiles with full of trust, “Previously Madam said that the distance between the Capital and Jingling City isn’t too far. If you take the water route, you can reach it in a few short days, and it’s very convenient to send letters, so Miss Mu doesn’t need to leave Bu Xian Luo.”

“Steward Qin, people don’t speak in secret. Earlier, I wanted to return Bu Xian Luo completely to Yue Wang.”

“This... Miss, I am just a servant, so I don’t know what Wang Ye is planning to do with Bu Xian Luu. About this matter, you still need to discuss it with Your Highness personally!”

Even though Mu Yunyao knew that Steward Qin was saying this in order to act shamelessly, when she saw the smile on his face and thought about how he had taken care of her and her mother all this time, she still couldn’t wholly harden her heart, “Steward Qin, you all understand that controlling Bu Xian Luo alone is more beneficial to Wang Ye than harm. Now that I have gotten involved with the Su Family, is Your Highness not afraid of me going against him?”

“This... This old servant has always been stupid, and I don’t understand how many of these things are at stake. If you have anything to say, you should discuss it with Wang Ye, but this old servant believes in Miss Mu that you have always been kind-hearted.”

Steward Qin is going to pretend to be stupid. He clearly knew what kind of person Miss Mu was after spending so much time together. As long as he did not endanger Madam Su and her safety, she was definitely not the type of person who would secretly stab someone in the dark. Otherwise, Wang Ye would not have let Miss Mu know many secrets in Bu Xian Luo.

Mu Yunyao was unable to do anything and could only temporarily put aside the matter regarding Bu Xian Luo.

Steward Qin took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and respectfully passed it to Mu Yunyao. “There’s one more thing that I wish to trouble Miss.”

Mu Yunyao opened the slip of paper and saw many properties and names clearly written on it. “Steward Qin, what is the meaning of this?”

“These properties and workforces were all things that Wang Ye had left in the Capital at the beginning. For many years, these people have been living alone and had no one to take care of them in the Capital. When Miss Mu returned to the Su family’s residence in the Capital, I hope Miss Mu can find some time to meet these people and help them. Of course, if Miss Mu has anything to do, you can rest assured that they will do as you ask.”

Mu Yunyao was stunned, and then she felt warmth in her heart. She could not help sighing. She had made up her mind to break off the involvement with Yue Wang. If she continued to accept his kindness, She’s afraid he would sink even deeper into the abyss: “You’re not bothering me. It’s obvious that you’re afraid of the people who will come after me in the Capital and afraid that I’m not familiar with my life, so you give me a ready-made helper, but please forgive me for not accepting …”

Steward Qin smiled and said, “Miss, don’t be in such a rush to refuse. I know you are intelligent and have your own plans, but it is always good to have one more path. Please remember the people above carefully. If you can’t use them, then you only need to pretend they don’t exist. What if you use them in case? Besides, one’s ability would eventually there’s a limit. If you want to protect your mother, you have to have more cards up your sleeves.”

Mu Yunyao’s fingers tightened slightly. When it involved Su Qing, she couldn’t help but think further. Steward Qin said something that reasonable. A person doesn’t have three heads and six arms, and there would always be omissions. If someone had an opportunity, she wouldn’t be able to afford to gamble In this way. “In that case, thank you very much, Steward Qin.”

The smile on Steward Qin’s face instantly brightened: “No need to be so polite, Miss. I will take my leave first.”

Mu Yunyao sent Steward Qin to the door and instructed Jin Lan, who was standing by the side of the door, “Jin Lan, send Steward Qin off.”

Jin Lan hurriedly replied, “Yes, Miss.”

Returning to her seat, Mu Yunyao looked at the property and name written on the table and couldn’t help but take a breath: “I’ll have to find a way to make up for the debt I owe today.” However, if things went on like this, she would have to deal with Yue Wang more often. The deeper their relationship was, the more difficult it would be to break it off …,

Su Qing takes Si Qin and others to come in. Some time ago, she invited Mama (old main) to teach the rule. Not only Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others had learned the rules, but also Su Qing was busy asking for advice. After Mu Yunyao knew about it, she did not stop her. Instead, she took the initiative to tell her about the Su family’s character and their connection in the Capital.

Even though half a month wasn’t a long time, Su Qing’s demeanor and manner had changed to be extraordinarily elegant.

“Yao’er, I saw shopkeeper Qin come just now. What’s the matter?”

Mu Yunyao thought for a moment. She didn’t plan to tell Su Qing about the odd cause of her father’s death right now. “He just came to ask about the future arrangements of Bu Xian Luo. It’s not that big of a deal.” This matter hadn’t been investigated thoroughly. It would only make her mother sad and wouldn’t be of any help to me.

“That’s good.”

As time passed day by day, Su Qing’s heart became more and more anxious. She even had the feeling that both sides were fighting together. Mu Yunyao didn’t know how to comfort her with words when she saw this. After all, even she couldn’t help but feel anxious.

On July 15th, when Mu Yunyao had just gotten up, she felt her heart beating fiercely. She couldn’t help but hold her chest. After drink water twice, but was still unable to suppress the panic in her heart.

When Jin Lan saw her pale face, she rushed forward to support her. “Miss, what’s the matter with you? What’s wrong?”

Mu Yunyao shook her head. “Go tell Mother that she’s not going to Ni Yun Fang today. Just stay at home!” Vaguely, she had a strong hunch that the Su family would send someone over today.

After Su Qing heard her words, he hurriedly came over to accompany Mu Yunyao.

The two finished their breakfast in silence, then sat down quietly. When the sun was about to set, Liu Liang appeared at the door. He knelt down and greeted: “Reporting to Madam and Miss, someone at the door requests an audience. He claims to be from the Su family in the Capital,”

It’s finally here!

~ PREPARATION BEFORE RETURNING TO THE SU FAMILY’S RESIDENCE ~ 

Mu Yunyao smiled slightly and kept her needlework before leaning back on the soft couch and letting Jin Lan massage her arm. “The clothes sold in Ni Yun Fang are already so expensive, and Niyun Beauty booklet is even more expensive. The beauty booklet is the face of Ni Yun Fang. If you don’t put on some good face now, it won’t be long before you destroy the brand of Ni Yun Fang.”

“It’s this servant who thought wrong.”

 
Mu Yunyao looked at the various embroidery threads around her, her expression extremely calm. “Jin Lan, what day is it today?”

“It’s almost the beginning of July …” Mu Yunyao’s vision gradually emptied. She remembers very clearly that on July 2nd in her previous life, her grandmother Li forced her to mow the grass in the mountain, and in the end, she was chased and killed in the mountains. After hunting her down, she rolled down and ran into a gorgeous carriage, then passed out.

When she woke up, she had sent back to the Li family’s residence, and immediately following that, the Su family sent someone to pick her up on July 15th. She later heard by chance that the people who had enmity with the Su family found out about her relationship with the Su family and intentionally sent people to kill her.

But now, she and her mother had come to Jingling City, and there are also two industries: Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Lou. They had rewarded by the Emperor many times, and their reputation also has spread widely. She didn’t know if the Su family has found out the identity of her and her mother. Then, would their so-called enemies send people to assassinate them?

Su Qing had already returned from the New Ni Yun Fang. Mu Yunyao stood up to welcome her mother, “Mother, you’ve returned. Are you tired today?”

“With so many people helping me, I only need to move my mouth. What’s so tiring?” Su Qing looked at Mu Yunyao’s smiling face, and her heart relaxed. She then pulled her aside and sat down.

Jin Lan and Jin Qiao went down and hurriedly ordered people to prepare food.

Mu Yunyao leaned against Su Qing and sat quietly, but her heart was very restless. “Mother, are you thinking about the Su family as well?”

“Yeah, the days are getting closer and closer, and my heart is getting more and more anxious. Now that our mother and daughter live in a comfortable life, it would be great if we didn’t return to the Su family’s residence.” Su Qing sighed.

“There are some things that we can’t avoid, not to mention our identity is there. Sooner or later, the Su family will definitely discover us.”

Su Qing couldn’t help but sigh, “Since we can’t avoid it, we’ll deal with it properly. However, I can’t understand why the Su family persecuted you like that in your previous life.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyelashes trembled slightly: “This is also what I can’t understand. In my previous life, I was helpless. According to the Su family’s way of doing things, they should know how to use me to win a good reputation and won’t begrudge me for a decent dowry. However, the Su family has embarrassed me many times, and they have secretly trying to kill me many times. Now to think of it, there’s something very unusual about it.”

“This is indeed a puzzling place. Logically speaking, you are the granddaughter of the Old Madam of the Su family, and you have suffered many years of living outside. At that time, you were physically disabled, so there was no hindrance in the Su family. They just gave you an extra mouthful of food. Why are their hearts so vicious?”

Mu Yunyao’s expression sank a little bit, feeling Su Qing trembling with anger, and she couldn’t help holding her hand: “Mother, don’t worry too much. You can always find things out bit by bit. The Su family doesn’t treat us like family, so we don’t need to worry about blood ties.”

Su Qing held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand tightly, and her heart was drenched in a cold sweat, “Yao’er, don’t worry. I naturally understand what you mean. After experiencing your grandmother’s matter, Mother also understood a lot. Good people will always get bullied. We won’t take the initiative to harm others, but if other people harm us, we must retaliate without holding back.”

She knew that Old Madam Su was her mother, but it was impossible for her to harm her own daughter for a person she had never seen before. It didn’t matter if they said that she was selfish and unfilial or that she was heartless and ruthless. She would rather bear all the evil reputation and wish for her own daughter would be safe.

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but smile. With her mother’s unconditional support, it made her feel as if her heart had soaked in warm water. Her entire body felt comfortable as she lazily said, “Didn’t Mother always teach me to be good to others? Why is it that the words spoken today are even more unyielding?”

“Foolish child, mother wants you to be kind to others because good people will always get favored by heaven, but Mother also doesn’t want you to get bullied. Now that I’ve interacted with so many ladies in Ni Yun Fang and seen their dirty families, big or small. If I still don’t understand, Mother is really foolish.”

“Mother, don’t worry. I will definitely protect you from the Su family’s bullying.”

“Alright, Mother naturally believes in Yao’er.” Su Qing couldn’t help but touching Mu Yunyao’s hair with emotion in her heart, “Yao’er, don’t worry too much. These days, I can see that you’ve been worrying all day. So you must be thinking about the Su family’s matters. There’s always a way to deal with them, no matter how difficult it is.”

“Alright.” Mu Yunyao nodded and finally felt a bit more relaxed in her heart. “Mother, I plan to find someone to teach Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others properly about the rule. In Capital, even these servants represent their Master’s face. If they don’t know how to behave or can’t be polite, it’s not good for them and us.”

Moreover, she wanted to put a trustworthy mama (old maid) beside Su Qing. Recently, Liu Liang asked a lot about her. She had chosen one, who was released from the palace before, so the way to deal with the backyard should not be a problem.

“Okay, merely make the arrangements. Also, we need to start arranging transactions at Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo as well. If the Su family come over in advance, and we don’t make the arrangements well, there might be a lot of trouble.”

After chatting with Su Qing, Mu Yunyao began to prepare for the next time. The rules for JinLan, Jin Qiao, and the others are easy to learn. They only needed to ask that mama for a few things. Fortunately, Mu Yunyao was able to grasp her thoughts and directly signed a contract.

Ni Yun Fang has gone very steadily at every step. Now, there were a few more shops in other cities, and they also had their own shopkeepers to control them. Besides, there is Liu Liang, who helped to arrange things, so it wasn’t a big deal. It’s Bu Xian Luo, which makes Mu Yunyao feel a little headache.

She had already made up her mind that she would not get involved with Bu Xian Luo any longer. However, after Yue Wang had left, Steward Qin only pretended to be confused and came to consult as usual whenever he encountered a problem. Moreover, the other party had a good relationship with her mother, so every time she didn’t want to bother with it, her mother would come over and tell her to continue to help.

On this day, Mu Yunyao was in the midst of arranging the clothes for Ni Yun Fang would make next when Jin Lan, who was at the door, came in and reported, “Miss, Shopkeeper Qin has arrived.”

“Send him in.”

Steward Qin was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. After entering the door, he bowed respectfully to Mu Yunyao and said, “Greetings, Miss Mu. I have an urgent matter to report to Miss Mu.”

Mu Yunyao’s heart stirred, and she waved her hand to allow Jin Lan and Jin Qiao to withdraw. “Please speak, Steward Qin.”

Steward Qin took out a letter from his sleeve, “Please have a look, Miss.”

Mu Yunyao opened the letter. After she finished reading it, she couldn’t help but frown.

~ MADAM SU IS IN TIME FOR THE RAIN ~ 

Mu Yunyao looked at the account book that Steward Qin had brought. Just as she was about to refuse, she saw Su Qing walk in.

“I heard that Shopkeeper Qin had come over, so I came to take a look. Coincidentally, the house had made some new refreshments, which Yao’er found to be very tasty. If it is useful, you could put it into Bu Xian Luo, which would add a little more income.”

Steward Qin smiled and bowed to Su Qing, “Thank you, Madam.”

Su Qing had a great impression of Shopkeeper Qin, so she quickly shook her head: “This is the prescription that I asked Si Qin to copy down.”

Steward Qin did not stand on ceremony and directly received it with both hands. “I will have my subordinates carefully study it when I get back. If they can use it, I will need to thank Madam properly.”

“There is no need for Shopkeeper Qin to be so polite.” Su Qing took a looked at Mu Yunyao, “Yao’er, you have to do your best in matters of Bu Xian Luo. Don’t be so lazy.”

Mu Yunyao glanced at Steward Qin, who had earnest eyes and could only nod in agreement. “I understand, Mother. I will carefully look through the account books and think over the countermeasures. After I’ve thought it over, I will write down the method to solve the problem and have someone send it to Jin Xiu Garden.”

“Alright, then I’ll be troubling Miss Mu.” Steward Qin was unable to contain his joy. He hurriedly stood up and bowed. “In that case, I won’t disturb Madam and Miss Mu anymore. Goodbye.”

Mu Yunyao was about to get up, but she saw Su Qing take a step forward hurriedly: “Yao’er, you think carefully about the countermeasures. I’ll send Shopkeeper Qin to the door and will discuss about the snacks too.”

Mu Yunyao blinked in surprise. Before she could say anything, Su Qing had already left.

“Thank you for preparing the pastries and meals for our Young Master, Madam. Young Master has always accompanied by Yu Heng, but unfortunately for him, that fellow has thought over much, and his mind is as thick as hemp, so it’s extremely inconsiderate when it comes to taking care of people.”

When Su Qing heard this, she was slightly surprised, “That’s why it’s so inconvenient when you are away. When Young Master Ning returns home, it will be fine to have a maid to take care of his daily life.”

Steward Qin smiled and shook his head. “Madam, you can see that our family’s Young Master has a cold temperament and does not like to get close to outsiders. Usually, .ost of his daily life is done by himself. Yu Heng, who is around his side, would only listen to orders and run errands for him. For these chores, people in the family have also told him several times about this. Master also pointed out about the family affairs. But unfortunately, they were all pushed away by Young Master. Our Young Master is now 21 and doesn’t even have a maid around him. Those who don’t know would have guessed what Young Master’s hidden ailment might have. In fact, our Young Master is simple-minded and only wants to find a suitable woman who will spend the rest of his life with him. If he can’t find one, I am afraid that he will grow old lonely and will die alone.”

“It’s rare for Young Master Ning to have this kind of thought.” Su Qing’s mind wavered. After returning to the Su family, their mother and daughter were also helpless. In the future, Yao’er’s marriage would have to be constrained by the Su family. If Young Master Ning could become a good match, although he was older, it would not matter as long as he treats Yao’er well.

“Yeah, it’s just that Young Master has a tactless mouth and can’t say anything in his heart, so it’s made someone easily misunderstood him. At home, Old Master also doesn’t like his dull temperament. Several Young Masters count him as the least valued. However, when he heard that something happened at home, he had to rush back immediately even if he was sick. Our Young Master is actually the most filial, sigh...”

When Su Qing thought of the pale appearance of Yue Wangwhen he left, she couldn’t help but worry a little more. “Young Master Ning is truly filial …”

Steward Qin’s eyes lit up, and he hurriedly lowered his head. It was better to say something that would make people wonder: “That’s right, it has been such a long time, which is during this year’s new year, Young Master has revealed a slight smile and even said that he very much likes Madam’s steamed buns.”

After chatting with Shopkeeper Qin for a while, Su Qing’s impression of Yue Wang unknowingly rose a few steps. “Please take care, Shopkeeper Qin.” She wondered if it would be possible to meet Young Master Ning in the Capital when she and Yao’er returned to the Su family. Then I can think about it carefully later.

“Mistress, please stay here.”

When he returned to Jin Xiu Garden, Steward Qin looked somewhat little worried about things, “I don’t know what kind of conflict between Miss Mu and Wang Ye. I only hope that my hard work has not been in vain.”

Very quickly, Mu Yunyao didn’t have the mood to think about Yue Wang’s matters. In the following time, news about the salt tax spread like wildfire.

The evidence that the salt merchants accused Li Yuanyi against was very conclusive. Although Li Yuanyi was unwilling to admit it, the Emperor did not listen to his deceptive arguments at all. He directly asked people to take away Dingdai Hualing and ent him to the prison of the Ministry of punishment for interrogation.

Some Imperial Envoys had sent to Yangzhou city. Without much effort, the ins and outs of the matter investigated clearly. The three influential salt merchant families of Wu, Wei, Cao, and the other salt merchants that participated in the salt fraud case were all plundered. Many people said that that the number of silver taels that had seized was tens of millions, which immediately caused the Imperial Court has shaken up and down.

Everyone knew that the salt merchant was wealthy, but they didn’t realize that the salt merchant had already reached a state where their wealth was comparable to that of a nation!

The other salt merchants also failed to escape. They were all detained and interrogated. Under all sorts of interrogation techniques, not only did they find out about the deficit in the salt tax and the conspiracy with officials to sell illegal salt, but also they find out about several lawsuits involving other people’s lives.

Mu Yunyao arranged a comprehensive plan in advance. Although Qi Ming was involved in this matter, Yue Wang had provided Qi Ming’s identity in advance, which played a lot as cover and did not let Qi Ming and Yi Bao Xuan deeply investigated.

The Li family would suffer a heavy blow from this incident, but cutting off some of their branches and leaves would have no impact on their foundation. The officials who came to investigate the case didn’t want to touch that easily because of a common name, who isn’t deeply involved in the case.

This matter had publicized for over a month before it gradually subsided. The aftermath of this event was still brewing non-stop in Jiangnan.

Li Yuanyi saved his life, but he got sentenced to exile. Whether he can come back alive will depend on his luck. The First Prince and the Li family had restrained themselves and were no longer as arrogant as before.

Mu Yunyao didn’t have time to carefully ponder over the feelings she’d had after Yue Wang left, and she threw herself into a new round of busyness. Previously, she had already sent a letter to the Capital, asking Lady Jin to investigate the Court’s attitude towards Ni Yun Fang. But now, she had received the reply. A few people have a very generous attitude towards Ni Yun Fang. With the Emperor’s praises of Ni Yun Fang and the reputation she had left behind, Mu Yunyao was finally able to reap the rewards. She could develop the Ni Yun Fang very well!

Mu Yunyao has a lot of silver in her hand. A part of it is enough to spread the opening of Ni Yun Fang. Previously, the embroidery techniques had spread very widely. So it’s easy to recruit female embroiderers, and you can choose the best from the best. The storefronts are all ready-made, and you can open the business if you spend some time carefully decorating it.

The next two months seemed to have passed in the blink of an eye. With Jingling City as the center, Ni Yun Fang opened stores in Yangzhou City, Suzhou City, Huai’an City, and Linjiang City ..., and they opened stores one after another.

Mu Yunyao packed a new batch of Niyun Beauty booklet and handed them to Liu Liang, asking him to send them to Yangzhou city overnight.

On one side, Jin Lan helped Mu Yunyao massage her aching arm and looked at her tired look. She was very distressed and said, “Miss, now we recruited many female embroiderers. You only need to draw the design well and let them make the beauty booklet. Although there is a gap between their craftsmanship and Miss, it’s still remarkable enough to put them in the store. It’s too hard for you to embroider by yourself.”

~ STEWARD QIN IS A GOOD SERVANT ~ 

Hearing Su Qing’s instructions, Mu Yunyao couldn’t explain the reason behind it, so she could only nod and agree. “I understand, Mother.”

After talking for a while, the already prepared Eight Treasures Rice had become much colder. Si Qin was about to heat it up before bringing it over, but Su Qing called out her to stop and added a spoonful of sugar into Mu Yunyao’s bowl before giving it to her directly.

Mu Yunyao was considering the purpose of Yue Wang’s actions. Earlier, she wanted to settle all the accounts with him, but now that he directly said goodbye to her mother and made her agree to take care of Jin Xiu Garden. Afterward, he left immediately and neatly. In this way, who should she find to settle the accounts in her hands? It was clearly cheating!

She focused on her thoughts when she heard Su Qing remind her to eat. She directly started to eat from the bowl in front of her, and after taking two bites, she suddenly frowned. The Eight Treasures Rice in her bowl had turned cold and sweetened with sugar. “Mother?”

When she ate the first bite, Su Qing’s heart couldn’t help but sink. Yao’er usually didn’t like eating Eight Treasures Rice with sugar the most, and she also had a keen sense of taste. If she added a spoonful of sugar, it would be too sweet for her. But now, she didn’t notice the abnormality when she ate two spoonfuls of sugar. It was notable that she had lost his soul because of Young Master Ning’s departure.

“What’s the matter?”

“The Eight Treasures Rice in my bowl is so sweet?” Mother always knew that she didn’t like eating sweet things, so why did she add sugar to the bowl?

Su Qing was suddenly enlightened. “I’m too busy right now. The bowl with sugar is mine. Just wait a bit. The Eight Treasures Rice is a little cold too. Let Si Qin heat it up before eating it.”

Mu Yunyao didn’t think much about it and waited for Si Qin to bring the food up again. After she finished eating, she returned to her room.

Su Qing was worried. Although she already knew that Young Master Ning was not married, he was still much older than Yao’er. Even though she comforted herself that Yunyao would love someone when she was older. But who knows the family background of Young Master Ning? To this age has not married, is there any hidden disease?

“Sigh …” Su Qing couldn’t help but sigh. “I really feel so worried …” Earlier, when Yao’er had returned that cloak, she should have been on guard. However, Mu Yunyao’s expression had been too ordinary. Later, she had sent people to return it to Fourth Master Ning, but he didn’t show the slightest bit of surprise either, so she let it go with ease. Now that she thought about it, perhaps even earlier than that, Yunyao already had some thoughts in her mind.

Mu Yunyao didn’t stay in the room for long before hearing from Jin Lan that Steward Qin asked to see her. After she tidied up her clothes, she invited him to a side hall.

“Greetings, Miss Mu.” Steward Qin still had a warm smile on his face. His attitude was very close, and there was not the slightest difference from before.

“There is no need for you to be so courteous, Steward Qin. May I know why you have come this time?”

Steward Qin took out a stack of account books and placed them beside Mu Yunyao. “Miss Mu, Master left in a hurry and didn’t have the time to bring these books over to you.”

Mu Yunyao frowned and waved her hand for Jin Lan and the others to withdraw, “Steward Qin, Fourth Master trusts you. At this time, you have taken great care of me, so I will not hide some things from you. The real purpose I gave these books of account to Fourth Master to exchange my share of the profits in Bu Xian Luo for Fourth Master’s share of the profits in Ni Yun Fang. In this way, Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo can split up. In the future, we can develop our own businesses independently and not get in the way of each other.”

Steward Qin revealed a surprised expression, “Miss, did someone make you angry? Is that why you said such angry words?”

“No...” Mu Yunyao shook her head. The person who had really provoked her was Yue Wang, but she didn’t want to talk to Steward Qin about the specific details of what had happened.

Steward Qin heaved a sigh of relief, “Without Miss Mu’s words, there would be no such thing as Bu Xian Luo today. Although Master has taken sixty percent of the profits, the golden signboard and the skills needed to make tea for the guests were all taught by Miss Mu. Yes, it was Master who took a big advantage. Master had talked about this before, saying that he wanted to thank Miss Mu well.”

Mu Yunyao slightly lowered her gaze, her long and delicate eyelashes quivering. She could tolerate the suspicion and probe from Yue Wang, but she couldn’t forgive him for his intentions of investigating her mother. No matter if his intentions were good or bad, she couldn’t afford the risk …,

Steward Qin continued, “This old servant has been with Master for a long time. To say something unruly, it could be said that he watched him grew up little by little. Master is older than Miss Mu but isn’t great as you when dealing with people. He had been assigned in Western Guangdong for so many years. Apart from his soldiers and generals, he had spent his days there with the wind and snow every day. Therefore, there was a hint of coldness in his bones. Also, his words and actions carried the aura of a battlefield or straight to the front. Master is suffering a great deal, but even if he had hurt to the extreme, he would only make things difficult for himself …”

As Steward Qin said this, he could not help but feel sorrowful. He raised his hand to wipe his tears, “Miss Mu only knows Master’s identity, but she doesn’t know how he came over so many years. When the Empress was carrying Master, and she looked about to given birth. Suddenly, something happened in the Palace, and the Emperor locked the Empress into the Cold Palace. Master also was born in the Cold Palace. If you are favored, you can easily pick the stars in the sky off when you want them. However, if you aren’t, your days would not even be comparable to those of ordinary people.”

Mu Yunyao spoke and interrupted Steward Qin, “These are Fourth Master’s family matters …”

“Look at me, when I think of the past, I can’t stop talking. I hope Miss Mu can forgive me. Those things have already been a long time. If you don’t want to talk about it, let’s talk to Miss Mu about Master’s life in Western Guangdong!” Steward Qin then wiped away his tears, “I don’t know if it’s because Master grew up in the Cold Palace since he was young, but Master’s personality was expressly cold. But his heart was good, and he didn’t have any ill intentions towards Miss Mu. Master just wasn’t good at expressing himself. No matter how much he thought, he couldn’t explain it. As such, it is always misunderstood. Being misunderstood and not knowing how to explain it, he kept on criticizing himself. With Miss Mu’s intelligence, she should have been able to understand what was going on …”

When Mu Yunyao heard this, she couldn’t help but think of the injury on Yue Wang’s back. That arrow wound is close to the heart, and it is such deep, so it will take at least two months to recover completely. Now that he’s back to Western Guangdong with that injury, I wonder if his injury will worsen along the way?

“Miss Mu, this old man may be a servant, but I can’t help to overstepping the rules. Miss Mu suddenly brought these books to Master and wanted completely separated Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo. It must be that Master has done something to make you unhappy. I can’t guarantee anything else, but I can absolutely guarantee that the Master doesn’t have the slightest malice towards Miss Mu.”

Mu Yunyao put her finger on the account books and smiled slightly: “Steward Qin is too worried. How dare I get angry with the Fourth Master? I merely feel that everything in Bu Xian Luo on the right track now. I occupy 40% of the profit, but I can’t help much felt sorry. ”

Steward Qin quickly wiped his tears and said with a smile, “The development of our Bu Xian Luo depends entirely on Miss Mu’s wisdom, and there are many things that require Miss Mu to make decisions.” After speaking, he handed the other two account books to Mu Yunyao directly.

“Miss, look, this is the account book that Huai’an City and Yangzhou City have sent over. Since the opening of this project more than a month ago, the business has been flourishing, but it has also attracted people’s attention. They have no way to buy fresh leaves in Bu Xian Lou. So they have no choice but to take advantage of the season to buy fresh leaves and raise the price of it, which has a tremendous impact on us.”

Incurable Chapter 11 Part 2

Mu Wan lies on the quilt on the bed, and her black hair covers half of her tiny white face. She opens her eyes and looks at Lin Wei beside her. The night light casts a hazy halo on her dark eyes, which makes her confused and lazy. 

“I want to chase him.” Mu Wan said. 

“What?” Lin Wei was startled and turned to stare at her. Mu Wan is casual, unrestricted, and easy-going, but she is fiercer than anyone when she meets the one she likes.

“Do you want to confess?” Lin Wei turned and put her hand on Mu Wan’s face. On the opposite side, Mu Wan wore pink pineapple-patterned silk pyjamas. Her face under the light filter was beautiful and charming, her neck was slender, and the exposed collarbone was straight and delicate. She thought for a while and said to Mu Wan, “Maybe Liu Daochang likes you too.”

Mu Wan shook his head and denied Lin Wei’s speculation.

In fact, when she praised Liu Qianxiu for his heartwarming smile this evening, his performance had already given her the answer. Liu Qianxiu is a monk. There is only one person and one cat in his family. Even when he didn’t adopt Zhou Yi last year, he was the only one in his family. He has a cold and austere temperament. He also likes to live alone and have peace of mind. He is used to loneliness, and he is enjoying loneliness. Honestly, this is no different from a monk.

If Mu Wan confessed rashly, he would only reject her directly because he didn’t know her well.

“I want to chase him quietly first, and when he understands me, gets used to me, and is interested in me, I will confess.” Mu Wan said.

Lin Wei: “...”

Speaking late at night with Lin Wei, Mu Wan got up early the next day. After breakfast at Lin Wei’s house, the two went to the mall together.

Last night, Mu Wan had an intense talk with Lin Wei, but she got up early the next day. After breakfast at Lin Wei’s house, they went to the mall together.

She strolled with Lin Wei all morning and went to the crew to film in the afternoon. After filming, Mu Wan called Liu Qianxiu to confirm his off-duty time. Mu Wan took a taxi to go home and then went to Tang’er Hospital by taxi after cleaning up.

Liu Qianxiu had surgery in the afternoon and got off work later than expected. Before the operation, Mu Wan called to ask when he was off work. After he said the time, she didn’t say anything else.

Thinking of her coming to the hospital to wait for him yesterday, Liu Qian frowns his forehead, puts the phone away, and pushes the door out of the office.

“Doctor Liu.” Xiao Yun leaned back against the wall. Hearing the sound of the door opening, she smiled and looked at Liu Qianxiu at the door.

Xiao Yun approached him yesterday because of today’s operation. Liu Qianxiu helped her finish, so she rushed to thank him. But Liu Qianxiu’s expression was still flat. Xiao Yun stood up and said, “Let’s go together.”

Liu Qianxiu didn’t say much. After nodding, he entered the elevator with Xiao Yun.

The atmosphere in the elevator was awkward and quiet. Xiao Yun stood on the side of the elevator. She raised her eyes to look at the tall and slender figure of the man before her. Then, she tightened her lower lip.

Although the two are colleagues and have commuting times almost the same, they have very little time alone. Xiao Yun noticed Liu Qianxiu when she dug in by Tang’er Hospital. He is good-looking, with an elegant and cold temperament. He is also an indifferent man. Xiao Yun fell in love with him at first sight.

But she didn’t take the initiative to pursue it. On the surface, she had a strict relationship with her colleagues and occasionally exchanged communication with them, which was also related to surgery. In front of him, she self-controlled her stance, and when no one was there, her mind was full of him.

Liu Qianxiu is a high mountain, and women look up to him. Xiao Yun has her own pride and self-esteem. She can’t put down her attitude to pursue a man.

But if she didn’t take the initiative, Liu Qianxiu would be like now and never look back at her.

With a ding sound, the elevator door opened, and Liu Qianxiu walked out. Xiao Yun looked at his back, panicking, and hurriedly chased him.

“Doctor Liu!” Xiao Yun called Liu Qianxiu.

Liu Qianxiu is tall and has long legs. Just as she was in a daze, he had almost reached the door. He looked back, his eyes as deep as a clear pool, and his voice was deep and pleasant.

“What’s the matter?”

After that, the two went out of the glass door of the hall together.

Maybe it was because she was chasing too quickly and was a little hot, or perhaps because her heartbeat was too fast and the blood circulated so fast that Xiao Yun’s face was stained with blushing. She looked up at Liu Qianxiu with hesitation and indecision in her eyes.

Finally, she decided and said, “Doctor Liu, I want to...”

“Liu Qianxiu!” A woman’s voice interrupted her.

Xiao Yun’s chin trembled slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at the source of the sound. Liu Qianxiu, who stood before her, had already looked over.

She stood on the edge of the flower bed with her long, curling black hair. She had a casual, lazy expression. She had a palm-sized face, bright facial features, and a pair of eyes looking at Liu Qianxiu shiningly. She was like a fire in front of the lush vegetation, which warmed the whole summer.

Not only did Mu Wan wear a dress, but she also put on makeup and styled her hair. That’s probably how women please themselves.

She looked up and saw Liu Qianxiu. He had taken off his white coat and was wearing a cotton and linen shirt and black trousers, which made him tall and handsome. He stood looking at her, his expression unchanged.

Xiao Yun stood beside him and was not as composed as him.

As for Xiao Yun, who was standing beside him, her expression was not so calm.

Xiao Yun didn’t wear a white coat. She wore a lotus root pink shirt and beige wide-leg pants. She was gentle, elegant, and in sharp contrast with Mu Wan, who was cold and charming in a red skirt.

She is also beautiful but less impressive than Mu Wan. Xiao Yun is like an elegant lily, but Mu Wan is like a blooming red rose. She attracted everyone’s attention, including Liu Qianxiu.

It was the second time that Mu Wan had come to pick up Liu Qianxiu. If Liu Qianxiu hadn’t agreed, she wouldn’t have come again. Xiao Yun looked at Mu Wan, who was smiling at Liu Qianxiu. She forgot what she was about to say to Liu Qianxiu, and the contempt in her eyes was unconcealed.

“She won’t pick you up every day, will she?” Xiao Yun laughed and said to Liu Qianxiu, “I don’t know. I thought she was your girlfriend.”

The red dress in his eyes is as charming as fire. Liu Qianxiu looks back and gives Xiao Yun a faint glance.

With this look, it was like a gust of wind blowing through her chest, and Xiao Yun’s smile was over. His glance didn’t make sense, but it seemed full of meaning.

Xiao Yun bit her lower lip, and in front of her, Liu Qianxiu turned his head and walked towards Mu Wan.

Mu Wan watched Liu Qianxiu approach, and she walked down from the flowerbed. The sun had already set at seven o’clock in the sky, and only the horizon was white. The hospital crowd came and went, and all eyes were on her, but Mu Wan didn’t care. When Liu Qianxiu walked before her and looked at her with pitch-black eyes, Mu Wan’s heart beat faster with his smile.

“Liu Qianxiu, I am waiting for you again.” Mu Wan’s eyes curled, and her pupils cut.

Liu Qianxiu pressed his lips tightly and responded in a low voice, “Well, what do you want to eat tonight?”

Author has something to say: 

Mu Wan: Eat you~

Incurable Chapter 11 Part 1

The sky was bright and sunny, dying the sunset and Liu Qianxiu’s face. His eyelashes blinked, and his dark eyes were full of brilliance. With a glance, Liu Qianxiu took back his sight. 

A gust of wind penetrated the screen windows, but the people inside the screen windows were unmoved. Mu Wan’s gaze traced the profile of Liu Qianxiu, standing straight and laughing. 

After dinner, Mu Wan left Liu Qianxiu’s house. As July is about to come, the sky is getting hotter and wetter. The Nanfeng Apartments are well-landscaped. The vegetation is lush under the street lights at night, as if walking through the jungle.

Mu Wan walked to the door and beckoned for a cab. After getting in the car, she talked to the driver.

“Go to Oujian’s villa.”

The driver pressed the taxi roof light over the sign and turned into a passenger. When the driver’s turn light came on, Mu Wan looked through the mottled windows at the building she had just left.

The occupancy rate here is very high. At eight o’clock, the lights are on in every house. The building rose high, and the windows looked very small, like the bedside lamp on the bedside table, with a faint hazy and gentleness.

There were too many lights, and the floors were dazzling. After the car turns, Mu Wan can’t count the floor of Liu Qianxiu’s house.

Oujian’s villa is in the Southern District, and the sea breeze at night is cold and wet. Mu Wan stood in front of the house and rang the doorbell. After a while, Lin Wei came over to open the door. When she opened the door, she was surprised to see Mu Wan.

Lin Wei: “......”

Lin Wei is a young literary and artistic person who lives with Mu Wan. However, Mu Wan’s purpose in life was clear. She had made herself comfortable, and she didn’t demand anything. Lin Wei’s life purpose was clear: life was all about happiness and hatred. For so many years, the men around her have never stopped.

Before her appendix was cut, she met a fitness coach in a bar. During that period, she was too embarrassed to meet him. After being discharged from the hospital, the two met briefly and got to know each other. That night, they burn the fire, and the sparks continue.

After sending the fitness coach to leave, Lin Wei closed the door and went upstairs. Mu Wan had already gone to the guest room.

Lin Wei is engaged in interior design, and her villa was designed with extraordinarily exquisite design. Although the first floor is a studio and the second floor is a house, the first and second floors don’t interfere. The first floor is a simple style, and the second floor is an ergonomic style. Although Lin Wei is only 1.6 meters and petite, she likes this firm and cutting style.

The living room lamp was lit, and Mu Wan made the bed under the lamp. Lin Wei leaned on the door with her arms folded, raised her chin, and asked, “What’s the matter?”

After Mu Wan bought her house, she didn’t come to sleep in Lin Wei’s house for a long time. She came here suddenly today because of something I couldn’t understand on the phone.

Mu Wan looked at Lin Wei, whose hair was a little messy, and asked: “Have you taken a bath?”

“Just washed up.” Lin Wei sighed deeply and said, with a pull of her face. “Fortunately, I haven’t done anything yet. You’d better have something important to do with me, or I’ll...”

“I like Liu Daochang (Taoist Priest Liu ).” Mu Wan said.

The words in her mouth stuck in her throat. Lin Wei reacted for two seconds, and her expression changed. She stood straight and asked Mu Wan, “Is that Liu Daochang who I know?”

“Yes.” Mu Wan put the pillow away and said with a smile.

Lin Wei wondered: “Haven’t you been discharged from the hospital? Don’t you say that Liu Daochang doesn’t like you?”

When Mu Wan was discharged from the hospital, Lin Wei came to pick her up. At that time, she secretly said that Liu Daochang liked her, but Mu Wan denied it. She only said she would thank him for taking her back from Qing Songxuan and inviting him to dinner. There were no signs at all.

That was just last week’s event. How did this story change in a few days?

Everything has changed, but nothing has changed. Mu Wan sat cross-legged on the bed, nodded, and said: “Liu Daochang doesn’t like me. It’s only I who like him.”

Lin Wei: “...”

Lin Wei obviously couldn’t digest the news because this was the first time Mu Wan talked about love since they met, and it was her unrequited love.

“I’ll take a shower first.” Mu Wan gave her time to digest the news. She got off the bed and went into the bathroom. Mu Wan came to Lin Wei today because Mu Wan wanted to talk to her at night. She will have no schedule the next day, so she has plenty of time.

Rushed away from the heat, Mu Wan changed into pyjamas and went to bed. Only the night light on the bedside table was turned on in the bedroom. The night light is a 3D gear style. The transparent lamp body was surrounded by rings of light, which were thick and gentle.

Lin Wei heard how Mu Wan fell in love with Liu Qianxiu.

It’s a typical story. A woman who has no father or mother, no relatives, and has gotten used to loneliness meets a man who keeps cats and cooks for her, and then she thinks that’s what she likes.

She always encourages Mu Wan to find someone to live with her, but Mu Wan refuses. When she finally finds that person, she is afraid.

She always asked Mu Wan to raise cats, but when Mu Wan adopted three stray cats at the hospital, she asked if she could take good care of them.

At that time, Mu Wan said, “I’ll try it.” Today, she asked if Mu Wan mistakenly thought she liked him because she depended on him. Mu Wan replied firmly, “I really like him.”

~ SAYING GOODBYE ~ 

Su Qing had just finished cooking the Eight Treasures Rice when she heard Si Qin’s report from the doorway, “Madam, Miss, Fourth Master Ning from Jin Xiu Garden next door is here to see you.”

Su Qing was stunned. Seeing that Mu Yunyao was sitting at the table, about to eat, she quickly looked over and rebuked, “This little girl, didn’t you hear that a guest had come to visit? Put it down, and we’ll eat later.”

After that, she can’t help but direct Si Qin to remove the things on the table. After tidying up the sleeves and skirt, she invited the person inside.

Yue Wang dressed in a light blue outfit with dark lines embroidered on silver silk thread, and it matched with his slightly cold and handsome face. He looked remarkably noble and unparalleled. “Greetings, Madam Su. Greetings, Miss Mu.”

Mu Yunyao looked at Yue Wang with wariness in her eyes. She had just decided to sever all relations with him, but now he had come to visit her mother. Just what was his purpose in doing so?

Looking at her expression, Yue Wang felt unwell in his heart. They had been to get along for a long time, but Mu Yunyao actually didn’t have any trust in him.

Su Qing didn’t notice the expressions of the two of them and hurriedly said, “Young Master Ning, don’t be polite. Seeing that your face is peculiarly pale, take the liberty to ask, but what’s wrong with your body?”

“It’s nothing. It’s just that I’m having a chill for a few days and will be fine after resting for a couple of days. There’s something urgent at home for me to go back, so I’m here to say goodbye to Madam.”

“Are you still on your way back when you are ill?”

“There’s no other way. The matter is urgent, and we can’t delay it.” As Yue Wang spoke, he coughed lightly twice. His pale face was drenched in a cold sweat, making people even more worried.

“Quick, sit down. Yao’er, don’t you know some medical skills? Hurry up and help Young Master Ning take a look. This cold is not something to be ignored. Don’t take it for granted because you have a good foundation.” Su Qing turned her head to look at Mu Yunyao, “Yao’er, hurry and go?”

“Understood, Mother.” Mu Yunyao walked over to Yue Wang’s side, her eyes filled with cold intent.

On the other hand, Yue Wang’s expression was very gentle. Even though his smile was faint, his eyes seemed filled with warmth. “I’ll have to trouble Miss Mu.”

Mu Yunyao already knew about the body condition of Yue Wang, but he said that he had caught a cold. At this time, she could not tell Su Qing the truth, “Fourth Master should pay more attention to recuperation, and it will be fine after a few more days of rest.”

Su Qing looks at Yue Wang’s appearance and secretly regretted in her heart. This Young Master Ning in front of her, no matter if it was his appearance or temperament, was not to be trifled. However, his age did not match up to Yunyao’s, and with Young Master Ning’s background, he must have already gotten married at this age and established a family. “Young Master Ning is not feeling well, so you must have should pay more attention in the road, and you should prepare all the medicine and clothes that you usually take when you’re ill, so as not to aggravate your illness.”

“Thank you for your concern, Madam. During the new year, I am very grateful for Madam not giving up on inviting Steward Qin and me to come over. It could be said to be the happiest New Year for me.” Yue Wang’s tone was calm, and there was not much sadness on his face, but when people heard it, they would feel distressed in their hearts.

Su Qing had been interacting with the Madams of the various families in Jingling City. She knew that the bigger the family, the more influential the family. This Young Master Ning’s demeanor and speech are extraordinary, and his family background is supposed to be more profound. I’m afraid there are more unpleasant things: “What’s the matter? Seriously speaking, the capital is not far too away from Jingling City. Young Master Ning, you can come here and relax whenever you have time.”

Muyunyao quickly stepped forward and stood on Su Qing’s side. “Mother, Young Master Ning’s family is busy. How can he come out often?”

“I’m alone, so I have nothing to worry about anything. If I don’t have a father watching over me, then no one would miss me even if I stayed out all day.” Yue Wang couldn’t help but sigh.

Su Qing was stunned, “Alone? Forgive me for being presumptuous, but has Young Master Ning not gotten married yet?”

Yue Wang shook his head: “Because of delay in various things. Even now, I am still alone.”

Su Qing was a little curious and wanted to find out what had delayed him. However, she knew that it was not appropriate to ask. She could only suppress her curiosity and said, “It’s not too late to get married and start a business after everything had dealt with.”

Yue Wang’s gaze swept across Mu Yunyao’s face, and he nodded with a smile in his eyes: “I only hope that someone can know each other and stay with each other. If it weren’t for love in my heart, there would be no harm in waiting a few more years.”

“Young Master Ning’s thoughts are quite rare.” Su Qing felt a sense of appreciation. People who come from such a family as Young Master Ning would probably have three wives and four concubines. To be able to say what he had just said, regardless of whether or not he could do it in the end, was already very rare.

Yue Wang prepared a present and gave it to her: “I have prepared a small gift, and I hope Madam will not mind.”

“Young Master Ning is too polite. How can this be used?”

“This is a token of my appreciation. Please accept it, Madam. I still need to thank Miss Mu. If it weren’t for her help to manage and run Jin Xiu Garden, there wouldn’t be Bu Xian Luo like now. Besides, I earned quite a bit of silver with her. After I left Jingling City, I’ll still need to bother Madam and Miss Mu to take care of it.”

Su Qing gestured for Si Qin to accept the gift and said to Yue Wang, “Young Master Ning, please be at ease. When we were borrowing Jin Xiu Garden, we were the ones who took advantage of it. How can we not put in all our effort?”

Yue Wang stood up and cupped his hands to bid farewell to Su Qing: “It’s getting late. I need to get to the city as soon as possible. The horses had already prepared, and I hope we can get there before nightfall.”

“Are you in such a hurry?” Su Qing quickly asked Si Qin to pack some snacks and small dishes and handed the food box to Yu Heng. “Young Master Ning, be careful on your journey. Don’t be too anxious, and don’t rush on the journey. The most important thing is to take good care of yourself.”

“Yes, thank you, Madam.”

Su Qing brought Mu Yunyao out of the residence and watched Yue Wang mount the horse as he left. She could not help but sigh with emotion. “This Young Master Ning is really not bad. He heard that something was going on at home and decided to set off even when he was sick. I wonder how uncomfortable the journey will be …”

As Su Qing said this, she didn’t hear Mu Yunyao’s response. She couldn’t help but raise her head and look over. When she saw her dazed expression, she was slightly alarmed in her heart. “Yao’er, what are you thinking?”

This desperate appearance, no matter how you looked at it, it seemed as though that their relationship had just begun, and she couldn’t bear to part from him.

“I’m not thinking of anything. It’s just that I’m a little curious. Why did this Young Master Ning come all the way here to say goodbye to us?” Mu Yunyao hurriedly suppressed her thoughts.

However, when Su Qing saw how anxious she was to explain it, as though she seemed to want to cover it up. Su Qing decided to watch it first, in case Yao’er didn’t understand what she was thinking, and decided to tell her, “Didn’t Young Master Ning say it just now? Firstly, it’s thanks, and secondly, it’s to ask us to take care of Jin Xiu Garden. This Young Master Ning is our benefactor, and if he didn’t lend us Jin Xiu Garden, we wouldn’t have been able to open Bu Xian Luo like this time. Yao’er, no matter what, you should take good care of Jin Xiu Garden, understand?”

~ SPLIT THE RELATIONSHIP ~ 

“Miss Mu is here?” Steward Qin was so happy. “Wang Ye, I want to welcome Miss Mu. You must have thought it through and decided to let her know. You must talk to her well, and don’t leave any grudges in Miss Mu’s heart.”

Joy was written all over Yue Wang’s face. He subconsciously adjusted his clothes before asking Yu Heng to invite her in.

Mu Yunyao entered the door and respectfully saluted Yue Wang. “Greetings to Your Highness Yue Wang.”

Hearing her address him, the light in his heart dimmed, but his expression did not change at all. “No need to be so courteous.”

Mu Yunyao placed the book in her hand on the table and then looked apologetically at Steward Qin, “I have some matters that I wish to discuss with His Highness Yue Wang in private. Is it possible to ask Steward Qin to leave temporarily?”

Steward Qin quickly smiled and said: “Then this old servant will go down to prepare some refreshments for Your Highness and Miss Mu.”

Yue Wang’s gaze fell onto the pile of books. From the looks of it, it was probably an account book.

Mu Yunyao pushed the account book towards Yue Wang and said, “Your Highness, these are the accounts of Ni Yun Fang in the past few months. I have sorted them out, and I have already calculated the profits that should have distributed to you. Here are the banknotes.”

“You don’t have to calculate it so clearly …”

“The calculations that should be transparent naturally would be better if it was clear.” Mu Yunyao wore a smile on her face, which was full of estrangement. “Wang Ye, the profits of Ni Yun Fang totally different from Bu Xian Luo, and you can’t compare it. Therefore, I wish to make a deal with you.”

The expression in Yue Wang’s heart turned dark: “What deal?”

“You have already taken 30% of the profits from Ni Yun Fang, and I have taken 40% of the profit from Bu Xian Luo. In fact, I didn’t help much in the serious calculation. It’s really not good to take so many profits shamelessly, so I want to exchange the profits in Bu Xian Luo for the profits of Ni Yun Fang in your hands.”

Yue Wang frowned suddenly. The light in his eyes became cold, as though the ice and snow were falling. “You want to cut off all ties with me?”

Mu Yunyao’s heart slightly tightened, but her smile became even more radiant. “I just feel like I’ve taken so much profit, causing you to be at a disadvantage.”

“What if I disagree?”

“Wang Ye wanted to develop Western Guangdong while meddling in Jiangnan. The silver that you spent should not be small. If you return the 40% profit from Ni Yun Fang, you will have many silver taels in your hands. Why hold on to this small Ni Yun Fang so tightly? Ni Yun Fang also has a golden signboard from the Emperor, but in the end, it’s just a place for selling clothes. There’s no opening up at present, and the amount of silver you earn is limited. If Wang Ye still feel that you’re at a disadvantage, I can compensate you with Yi Bao Xuan. Back then, when I was preparing Yi Bao Xuan, I was greatly helped by the people of Wang Ye, and now I can easily negotiate with them without much trouble.”

Yue Wang’s heart sank. “What if I don’t agree?”

“If you have any conditions, you can propose them. As long as I can fulfill them, I will do my best.” Mu Yunyao continued to smile, and the smile on her charming face was like honey as it emitted a sweet and fragrant scent. However, in the eyes of Yue Wang, he was only able to taste an endless bitterness.

“Yunyao, are you blaming me for investigating you?”

“Wang Ye, you’re overthinking it. I didn’t mean it that way.”

“If you don’t blame me, why would you suddenly terminate cooperation with me?”

“Mother and I are preparing to leave Jingling City.”

Yue Wang was stunned: “Leave?”

“Didn’t Fourth Master Ning also find some information? Your investigation is correct. My mother was indeed a lost daughter of the Su family many years ago. The old Madam of the Su family is my grandmother and the official’s secretary, Su Wenyuan, was my uncle. Sooner or later, the Su family will find out where my mother and I are and bring us back, so I decided to take my mother back to Xiayan village and wait.“

“Even if you want to return to the Su family, it wouldn’t prevent us from continuing our cooperation ...”

“Your Highness, have you thought this through? Even though I only call Su Wenyuan uncle, I also bear the label of the Su family. If you continue to cooperate with me, there will be endless hidden dangers. Why not separate Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Lou clearly, so you and I are happy and peaceful.”

“What you said makes a lot of sense, but I don’t agree.”

Hearing Yue Wang’s reply, Mu Yunyao abruptly raised her head, her eyes filled with confusion. “Why? Could it be that Wang Ye still felt that he had suffered a loss? Then, half of the 10 million taels of silver that I got from blackmailing the salt merchant will be given to Wang Ye. How about this?”

Yue Wang stared at Mu Yunyao, his eyes half angry and half helpless. “Am I such a greedy person in your heart?”

Mu Yunyao’s smile became colder, “Then what does Your Highness want?”

Yue Wang pondered for a moment, then said: “Yunyao, I found out that there is something strange about your father’s death, and I don’t know what the specific person did, but judging from your attitude towards the Su family, it seems like you don’t want to get close to them, so, I have a bold guess, did the Su family harm your father?”

Mu Yunyao suddenly raised her head. She had suspected before that her father’s death wasn’t an accident, but her ability was limited. She couldn’t investigate it in detail, so she could only suppress her doubts in her heart and wait for an opportunity to confirm one. She didn’t expect that Yue Wang would find something fishy, “I don’t dare to be sure.”

“I’ll ask someone to continue investigating this matter. If you find any information, I’ll let you know as soon as possible.”

“Wang Ye, why are you wasting your time on me?” Mu Yunyao suddenly came back to her senses. “The silver in your hands is enough now to build up any power. Why are you holding me so heavily?

Yue Wang was silent for a moment, then said: “Go back first, wait for me to think about it carefully, and at the same time, take a look at the account book. How about it?”

“Alright, then I’ll take my leave.”

After Mu Yunyao left, Steward Qin walked in with a worried expression: “Your Highness, looking at Miss Mu’s expression, she is here not to make peace, is she?”

Yue Wang nodded his head: “Uncle Qin, quickly gets people to investigate the cause of Yunyao’s father’s death as soon as possible. Also, think of a way to interrogate Madam Su’s adoptive parents to see if they know anything, and use gentle methods. After all, they raised Madam Su before.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” Steward Qin nodded his head in agreement, “But where is Miss Mu …”

“Uncle Qin, my back injury is almost healed. Please help me to clean it up. I will head back to Western Guangdong later.”

Steward Qin stunned: “The wounds on your body?”

“It’s fine. Before I leave, I want to bid farewell to Madam Su. After I say my goodbyes, I’ll leave immediately. After I leave, you can send these account books over to Yunyao.” Today, Yunyao was full of precautions against him, and anything he said would not enter her ears, so he could only calm down first. He also had to think of a way properly to get close to her. When they met again, he had to make her unreservedly believe in him!

Steward Qin nodded his head, “Then I will go and prepare the present now.”

When Mu Yunyao returned home, Su Qing had just returned from Ni Yun Fang. “Mother.”

Su Qing held her hand and asked, “What’s wrong?” “Nothing, I just want to eat the Eight Treasures Rice that Mother made personally.” Mu Yunyao leaned on Su Qing’s shoulder. The light in her eyes dimmed slightly. She had finally made up her mind to cut off the relationship with Yue Wang. She didn’t heave a sigh of relief as she had imagined. Instead, she felt empty inside her heart.
