Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 246

~ SOMEONE’S PLAYING A TRICK ~ 

Liu Mama, who was still smiling, suddenly became stiff. According to their original guess, even if Su Qing and Mu Yunyao had something to take along, they wouldn’t carry much. Who would have thought that a boat wouldn’t be able to hold them?

Recalling the boxes that had previously piled up in the courtyard, Liu Mama felt a lump in her throat. When people arrive at the Su family’s residence, but there will be nowhere to put the things, the Eldest Madam will lose face. Lui Mama, who came to observe the situation but didn’t report the circumstances truthfully, would be definitely punished!

The journey on the boat was considerably calm. After Liu Mama realized that the situation wasn’t right, she thought of a way to send a letter to the Eldest Madam, so she came to encourage Mu Yunyao, “Young Miss, the scenery along the way is so beautiful. Moreover, we’ve been on the boat for three days. I’m sure you’re tired too. Would you like to go ashore to rest for a night?”

Mu Yunyao shook her head slightly. Her eyebrows furrowed, and her tone became a little low, “Earlier, there was a delay of many days in order to deal with the matter of Jingling City. With the golden signboard personally bestowed by the Emperor, we cannot abandon Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo. Since we have already decided to return it to the people of Jingling City, I can’t ignore it. Because of that, they have not left until now and rush to the Capital. Mother and I felt extremely guilty, and now we wish that we could grow a pair of wings and fly directly to Grandmother. Where can we be able to get ashore to rest for the sake of our own well-being?”

Liu Mama was speechless. She carefully looked at Mu Yunyao’s expression, hoping to see some hypocrisy in her words. But no matter how she looked at it, the guilt and longing on her face were very affectionate and sincere.

Su Qing also nodded in agreement, “Yao’er is right. We were already extremely uneasy after delaying for so long. Now we don’t even have the mood to rest. Let’s travel through the night.”

Liu Mama couldn’t do anything but mutter, “Yes.”

When Liu Mama left, Mu Yunyao’s lips curled up into a smile. “Mother, with our current speed, we should arrive in the Capital in six days. Mother will have to suffer greatly along the way.” Although Su Qing’s seasickness was not very obvious this time, it was indeed very uncomfortable to spend a long time on the boat.

“Mother, what suffering do I have? It’s rare for you to have such leisurely days. But you, you eat too little these days. Don’t starve yourself to death.”

“Don’t worry, Mother. I’m fine.”

When Liu Mama left Mu Yunyao’s room, she couldn’t help but feel annoyed. Before she came here, Eldest Madam had mentioned to her before that as long as she did this job well, she will reward her with a hundred silver taels. Furthermore, the Eldest Madam would also arrange for her son to have a good match. She can use this opportunity to show her face in front of the Eldest Madam!

She initially had thought that things would be so simple. To deal with two people from the countryside, she can use some tricks to make them unable to stand it, but she had neglected many things. Who would have thought that these two people would actually bring so many things with them? If the yard arranged by the Eldest Madam really couldn’t fit, it would be a shame and a loss of face. This debt would definitely go to her. After all, she had not sent back the crucial information. In this way, not to mention reward, it would great if she didn’t get punished.

Liu Mama was anxious in her heart and couldn’t help but think of a method to bring the boat to shore. If she can send a messenger pigeon to send a message when they landed ashore, it can send a message to the Eldest Madam before they reached the Capital. While thinking, Liu Mama saw Zhi Qiu pour the dregs into the river, and her eyes immediately narrowed. After which, a smile appeared on her face, and she felt much more relaxed.

Traveling north by boat, the weather seems considerably cool, but Mu Yunyao’s appetite was not that good, and she ate too little these two days. When Su Qing saw this, she became anxious and went to cook herself, hoping that Mu Yunyao would eat more.

Since there was nothing to do on the boat, Mu Yunyao read the book for the whole afternoon. Feeling a little tired, she slept on the bed for a while, and when she woke up, Su Qing was personally bringing the dishes over. When Su Qing saw that Mu Yunyao had woken up, she quickly called out, “Did you wake up after smelling the fragrance of food?”

Mu Yunyao knew that Su Qing was worried about her, so she smiled as she spoke, hoping that she could make Su Qing relax a little. “Isn’t it precisely because I awakened by Mother’s cooking?”

When the Snow Fox that had been lying beside Mu Yunyao’s pillow saw her get up, it hurriedly stood up and jumped onto her shoulder. It intimately rubbed its head against the side of Mu Yunyao’s face as it let out a whining sound from its mouth.

When Su Qing saw this, she could not help but laugh. “This Snow Fox’s personality is extremely compatible with yours.” They all love to coquettish.

“Mother is actually joking. I’m much more adorable than this Snow Fox. Furthermore, how good-looking am I?”

“Aiyo, Mother is indeed wrong. You don’t like this Snow Fox. After all, the Snow Fox is not as shameless as you.”

If Mother says it like that, I won’t listen to her. I feel so sad that I feel hungry …” Mu Yunyao wiped her hands as she spoke, then sat down on the edge of the table. After smelling the smell from the food, she abruptly stopped talking, her eyebrows moved, and then she asked without batting an eyelid, “Are all of these dishes made by Mother?”

“Yeah, I think that your appetite isn’t that good, and you’ve eaten very little in the past two days, so you can eat all the food that I’ve cooked.” Su Qing didn’t notice Mu Yunyao’s abnormality and handed the chopsticks over as she spoke.

Although she had Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the rest to accompany her, Su Qing still liked taking care of Mu Yunyao by herself. Every time she saw Mu Yunyao ate sweetly, she felt happier than when she was full. “Quickly, eat some while the food is still warm.”

Mu Yunyao got up and picked up some dishes before placing them in Su Qing’s bowl. “Mom, eat more as well.” After picking up the food, she pulled the Eight Treasure Tofu in front of her for herself.

Su Qing felt a little strange. Mu Yunyao usually didn’t like to eat tofu because the smell of the tofu was too strong. She had made this dish for herself, so why was it so abnormal today? Just as she was about to ask, she inadvertently noticed the coldness in Mu Yunyao’s eyes, and her heart shook.

“This Eight Treasure Tofu is excellent. I didn’t expect there to be such ingredients on the boat. I wonder who prepared them?” Mu Yunyao raised her head to look at Ying Xue and asked with a smile.

“To reply Young Miss, Liu Mama likes tofu better. Presumably, she asked someone to prepare it for her.”

Mu Yunyao’s fingers, who was holding onto a pair of chopsticks, lightly moved it. “Un, what a coincidence, Mother really likes it too.” As she spoke, she scooped a spoonful and placed it in her bowl, but she didn’t use the spoon until the end.

Seeing Mu Yunyao act like this caused Su Qing to feel even more uneasy. Mu Yunyao waited for the others to clear away the food, then accidentally knocked over her bowl, and the things in the bowl fell to the ground. When she picks it up again, she was unable to differentiate its original appearance.

It wasn’t until Ying Xue and Jian Chun left that Su Qing couldn’t help but say, “Yao’er, but …. What’s wrong with that?”

Mu Yunyao smiled, but a cold light flashed in her eyes, “There’s someone who can’t bear it anymore, and she doesn’t want us to be too peaceful!”

Incurable Chapter 14 Part 2

Liu Qianxiu really doesn’t like eating outside. Not only does he not eat outside, but if he comes home with the smell, he will wash his body so it is spotless and there is no smoke trace. 

His hair was half dry, and Liu Qianxiu wore wide trousers and long clothes. He was tall and straight, with black hair, dark eyes, and red lips, which looked vivid and eye-catching. He also took a towel. After wiping himself, he put the towel on the bed and looked up to see Mu Wan. 

The temperament is so clean, as clean as transparent spring water.

Mu Wan’s heartbeat speeded up. She regained her senses and asked Liu Qianxiu, “Are you attending the scientific research meeting at Wencheng Central Hospital next week?”

After listening to Mu Wan quietly, Liu Qianxiu looked at her with clear eyes. Mu Wan was seen with a guilty heart and said: “I accidentally heard it, and I will also go to Wencheng to film next week. Are you going to that scientific research conference?”

She asked again, looking up at him with eager eyes.

Two people stand in the living room, and two shadows are on the ground together. Mu Wan was waiting for Liu Qianxiu’s answer, the latter’s eyelids trembling slightly, and said, “Look at the hospital arrangements.”

He said that eight out of ten would not go.

Mu Wan muttered, “Oh.” and said, “If you go, we might be able to meet at Wencheng Central Hospital because my movie was filmed in the hospital.” Mu Wan stretched her right arm to his back and grabbed his left arm. “If you go, no one will watch the cat. If you don’t go, I won’t be able to see you until next week...”

Mu Wan fell into emotions. The words slipped out of her mouth unconsciously, her eyelids drooping, and she looked a little unhappy.

After speaking, she reacted immediately and quickly added: “Then I can see Datou, Ertong, and Zhongfen.”

The light in the living room cast a shadow on Mu Wan’s face. She looked down at the carpet. The collarbone became increasingly apparent because her right hand grasped her left arm.

She is not small but very slender. Stood there alone, and her eyes seemed to have endless words.

Liu Qianxiu retracted his gaze and said, “I will send you back.”

At the opening ceremony of “Red Embroidery” on Monday, Mu Wan played the role of cannon fodder in the early stage and entered the group before the start. After going to Liu Qianxiu’s house on Sunday afternoon to see Datou, Ertong, and Zhongfen, she took the train to Wencheng.

Wencheng is an old city south of Xiacheng, a four-hour drive from Xiacheng. Mi Yu will also participate in the opening ceremony as the female number two, but Mu Wan rarely goes in her car. For short-distance work, Mu Wan likes to take public transportation. If driving takes four hours, she can get there in one and a half hours by high-speed rail.

She had pulled into the crew of “Red Embroidery.” After getting off the high-speed rail station, she took a taxi to the Wencheng Hotel, where the drama team was. Wencheng Hotel is the best hotel in Wencheng City. It is the first time Mu Wan will film a drama series and stay at a five-star level. It must be said that with Shen’s capital injection, the drama team made a lot of money. When she went to get the room card, she heard a gossip, saying that the hotel was booked together for the heroine to live comfortably, and they got her light.

Ah, the heroine was Mu Qing.

When Gao Mei talked to her a few days ago, only a few memories flashed back in Mu Wan’s mind, so she didn’t think about it anymore. In fact, from the beginning, she and Mu’s family were strangers, and her mother kept them together.

Mother died, so the line broke, and they went their separate ways, acting like they didn’t know each other.

The Mu family wishes that Mu Wan would not exist. To Mu Wan, Mu’s family is just a tree on the journey. A gust of wind, seen and blown, has nothing to do with it.

Mu Wan returned to the room.

Her room is standard, with the entrance hallway facing the floor-to-ceiling windows and balcony. The rooms are so large, complete with everything, and the furnishings are pretty simple. Wencheng is an old city. Not only the hotel rooms, but we also could feel the deep cultural heritage of the high-speed rail.

In the evening of the same day, the group held a meeting to discuss the related matters of starting up the next day. The director and the producer will arrive tomorrow, so it is easy. After the opening, everyone will return to their rooms.

Gao Mei and Mu Wan were in the same room. After they went back, they confronted the script for a while. After that, Gao Mei ran out and returned with a lot of food and snacks.

“It’s from the field service.” Gao Mei put the thing on the table, smelling salty and sweet.

They are now in front of the desk on the balcony, where the script spread. Mu Wan takes a duck’s claw and looks down at her mobile phone. Next to her, Gao Mei continued to talk about the crew gossip.

“Mu Qing won’t come to the opening ceremony tomorrow. The crew will first shoot other people’s scenes and wait for her.” Gao Mei gnawed the duck’s claw with a tone full of surprise and said, “She has very powerful backstage. I heard that she’s the fiancee of Master Shen of the Shen family. Moreover, she’s a lady from a big family.”

A sweet and spicy taste spread in her mouth as Mu Wan looked up at Gao Mei. The gossip they talked about was probably heard from others. The Mu family has been in decline since her grandmother’s generation. Now, Mu Qing’s father is in charge. The spirit of the past has long lost its charm.

Mu Wan didn’t say much at the meeting. She only pulled out her mobile phone and looked at her cat’s photo. The meeting lasted a long evening, finishing at half past nine. Liu Qianxiu had a rest at ten o’clock, so Mu Wan didn’t want to interrupt him at night.

She almost memorized all her script. After eating the duck’s claw, Mu Wan got up, went to the bathroom, bathed, and went to bed.

The next day, the opening ceremony was held as scheduled, but Mu Qing didn’t appear. However, the second lead and the female number two, Mi Yu, were shot in the Wenshan mountain, so director Zhang Chengze naturally followed.

This is a medical espionage drama in the period of the Republic of China. Mu Wan acts as a cannon fodder nurse, and her role is basically in Wencheng Hospital. The director filmed the main characters and her role at Wencheng Hospital, which was shot by the assistant director.

After the shooting and broadcasting, this drama can be regarded as publicity for Wencheng Central Hospital, so Wencheng Central Hospital was very cooperative. The hospital is divided into ten departments, and the hospital has specially vacated the ward so that the actors can change costumes.

After changing into costumes, Mu Wan used a hairpin to put on the nurse’s hat, opened the door, and walked out. In the Republic of China’s period, the nurses’ uniforms were made of cotton and linen with long sleeves and a long white suspender skirt, which differed from the current nurses’ outfits.

Mu Wan walked towards the small garden behind the hospital, where she took the shot. She had just walked out of the inpatient building, changed her clothes, looked up, and saw several people entering the Emergency Building.

Among several people, a man with a tall figure stands out. Mu Wan’s heartbeat accelerated, and she had already run over before she could react.

“Liu Qianxiu!”

The hospital’s Emergency Building was noisy, but Mu Wan’s voice was sweet. After she shouted, she saw the man turn his head.

With thin eyebrows and a sharp temper, when Liu Qianxiu turned his head, Mu Wan’s heart was full of sweetness.

The heartbeat pounded against her chest. Mu Wan looked at him, her eyes moved, and she laughed.

Xiao Tan, who was accompanying him, also looked over. When Mu Wan approached, he glanced at Mu Wan’s nurse uniform and said with a smile, “I didn’t expect to be a colleague.”

Xiao Tan, who was accompanying him, also looked over. When Mu Wan came near, he looked at Mu Wan’s nursing clothes and said with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to be a colleague.”

“I’m not.” Mu Wan stood beside Liu Qianxiu, the heat spread on her face, and she blushed: “I am an actor.”

After speaking, she looked up at Liu Qianxiu, who was beside her, her eyes shining brightly, “Don’t you see the arrangement?”

She was wearing a nurse’s uniform. Under a white nurse’s hat, her face looked small and charming. Her eyes were watery, and her red lips fluttered. She smiled, and the light in her eyes flickered like her heartbeat.

Liu Qianxiu’s eyelids drooped slightly. His eyes were dark and clear under his eyelashes. He looked calm, and his voice was low.

“Yeah. When the arrangements are made, I’ll be here.”

The author has something to say: 

Mu Wan: I have your child in my stomach, this is what you laid down!

Liu Daochang: When did I fight?

Mu Wan: Well, a few days into the future ... right?

Incurable Chapter 14 Part 1

When Mu Wan passed by, the woman in the red dress at the dining table’s expression changed slightly, and her eyes darkened. She then took a sip of lemonade from her glass. After drinking, she looked over again. Her eyes had calmed down, but the seeming contempt reappeared.
Mu Wan raised her red lips slightly and followed Liu Qianxiu to the table. The waiter pulled the chair away from her and sat beside Liu Qianxiu. 

This place is a high-end Western restaurant with a quiet environment and simple decoration. They sat in the corner of the dining room, a small compartment separated by several partitions, and the people inside were vaguely visible.

In the compartment, bright crystal chandelier lights illuminate the room, several oil paintings hang on the walls, the tableware is clean and tidy, and the room is exquisite and expensive.

Xiao Tan saw that Liu Qianxiu had brought someone here, still a woman. He switched his eyes between them and asked, “This is...”

“Hello, my name is Mu Wan.” Mu Wan introduced herself. “I have something to do with Doctor Liu. He heard I didn’t eat, so he brought me over.”

After speaking, Mu Wan nodded toward the female doctor next to Xiao Tan and said, “Thank you, Doctor Xiao.”

Xiao Yun smiled and said: “It’s all right.” Her back slowly straightened as she spoke, and a layer of heat flowed away.

She’s really haunted.

Xiao Yun is wearing a bright red dress today. Mu Wan only wore a black waistcoat and dark brown harem pants. Harem pants have a pleated waist and a big bow under the flat abdomen, which makes Mu Wan’s waist and hips protrude, making the body proportions look perfect.

Mu Wan wore little makeup, long black eyebrows, and rosy lips, and her face underneath her long, wavy hair was fair and small. She was like a Hong Kong star under the age filter, exuding a naturally charming and glamorous style, which causes people unable to move their eyes.

The waiter came over, and Mu Wan gave the order openly. She didn’t have to be polite and embarrassed when Liu Qianxiu brought her over for dinner. After she ordered, Liu Qianxiu, sitting beside Mu Wan, ordered the same.

With Mu Wan’s arrival, the meaning of today’s meal suddenly turned into a simple internal dinner. Xiao Yun first talked about several recent surgeries, and her mouth was full of professional terms, so Mu Wan couldn’t understand what was going on and couldn’t get a word in. She held her chin with her back wrist, looked at the painting on the wall, and waited for the food.
Seeing Mu Wan’s boredom at the dinner table, Xiao Yun gradually gained confidence in her heart.

This restaurant is exquisite in making things and serving food a bit slower. After waiting a while, Mu Wan got up and went to the bathroom. When exited the bathroom, she saw Xiao Yun washing her hands by the sink.

The sink is illuminated by a lamp, and the faucet reflects the light, so the red dress is even more colourful under the light.

Mu Wan didn’t like Xiao Yun very much because Xiao Yun looked down on her and thought she was frivolous. But after all, it was the same table for dinner, and she had invited her, so Mu Wan walked to the sink and said hello.

Xiao Yun stood up straight, about the same height as Mu Wan, and both were thin, but Mu Wan’s curve was more exquisite. She glanced at Mu Wan carelessly and said faintly, “Just when we talked, you were boring there, right?”

Her tone is alright, so Mu Wan was not too harsh with her. She answered after she poured the water from the faucet into her hand. “The doctor’s gathering is like this. The topic can’t be separated from surgery, patients, or essays. If you are too professional, outsiders can’t get a word in, and you’ll get bored.”

Xiao Yun laughed as if nothing had happened. She turned and looked at Mu Wan next to her, “However, we doctors are unaware of it. The doctor is the most understanding of the doctor, and it was a pleasant conversation.”

There are only two people beside the sink. When the tap is turned on, water immediately falls and makes a slight sound on the porcelain sink.

As an outsider, Mu Wan looked at Xiao Yun. What he said just now shows her personal style, which is very serious, pretentious, self-righteous, and contemptuous. She connoted her, insinuating that she and Liu Qianxiu were not the same people.

The corners of Mu Wan’s lips raised slightly, and her smile was polite. She looked up and down at Xiao Yun and said, “The red dress looks pretty.”

Xiao Yun’s jaw trembled.

She also saw how Mu Wan was dressed that day and thought Liu Qianxiu liked it, so she bought some today.

After pulling a piece of tissue, Mu Wan was still smiling. She wiped her fingers slowly and said, “But Doctor Liu has already seen me wear it, and it’s rare to see anyone else wearing it. I’m an actress, so I’ve never lost face before.”

After wiping the last drop of water, Mu Wan put the damp tissues in the trash can and left the bathroom smilingly.

When she went back, Xiao Tan and Liu Qianxiu were still talking. Since the topic of surgery had started, they continued to talk about it. Mu Wan just passed by and heard Xiao Tan say something. “Are you interested in attending the scientific research meeting of Wencheng First Hospital next week?”

Liu Qianxiu didn’t answer. He noticed Mu Wan coming and looked back at her. Mu Wan looked at him, thinking about what Xiao Tan had just said. Just about to ask, the waiter at the back said hello, and the food was served.

When the food was served, Xiao Yun also came back. She patched up her makeup, but her expression remained the same—gentle and dignified. They talked about surgery at the dining table. Mu Wan was holding a knife and cutting the steak, looking at Liu Qianxiu.

Liu Qianxiu looked back at her.

Mu Wan bit the steak, and her mouth moved slightly. She kept eating it because she couldn’t get a word in, and the steak in front of her had already seen the bottom. Xiao Tan asked something, so Liu Qianxiu turned around and talked to him, quietly moving the intact steak to Mu Wan.

Liu Qianxiu didn’t eat the steak but had already cut it. The hand with a scalpel still works well for cutting steak. The steaks were cut evenly with a complete edge and a small piece arranged in neat rows.

Mu Wan looked at him with bulging cheeks and asked, “You don’t want to eat?”

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu responded in a low voice.

With a sweet mouth, Mu Wan handed him the empty plate and said, “Then I will eat it all...”

After placing the empty plate before him, Liu Qianxiu quietly said, “OK.”

The interaction between the two was so small that Xiao Tan didn’t notice it. Only Xiao Yun, holding the lemonade on the opposite side, looked at them, her knuckles gradually whitening.

After dinner, the group separated. Mu Wan followed Liu Qianxiu home to see the cat. Because she had nothing to say, she ate two steaks, and her belly bulged. The threads on the waistcoat are all stretched a bit.

Mu Wan fastened her seat belt, and her belly bulged like a small hill. She released herself, raising her eyes to look at Liu Qianxiu next to her.

Liu Qianxiu started the car, noticed her sight, and looked back at her. Mu Wan glanced down at her stomach, so his gaze also moved down, and he saw her little round belly.

Beside him, Mu Wan laughed and joked: “Doctor Liu, look at my belly. How many months have I been pregnant?”

She is thin and slim, with a bulging belly, which makes her a little cute.

Although he was not an obstetrician and gynaecologist, Liu Qianxiu made a rough estimate and said, “Four months.”

Pushing her belly forward, Mu Wan pinched her thin waist and said, “Look! That’s what you’ve done.”

Her original intention was that she had such a big belly after eating the steak Liu Qianxiu gave her. But after speaking, she realized she was a little ambiguous and emotional.

Mu Wan’s face was slightly dry, and she sat up straight and put her belly back. The street lights outside the car window were mottled and couldn’t illuminate her face. Liu Qianxiu’s gaze paused, his lips pressed tightly, and he drew his eyes back and started the car.

At Liu Qianxiu’s house, Mu Wan saw the kitten, hugged it, rubbed it, and remembered that she was going to Wencheng to film. Mu Wan walked out of the cat room, and at the bedroom door, she saw Liu Qianxiu, who had just taken a shower.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 245

~ PUT AN EYE ~ 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

“Alright, I’ll listen to Mother.”

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

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

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

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

“Greeting, Madam. Greeting, Young Miss.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

“This servant greets Madam and Young Miss.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

~ SEND OFF ACROSS THE CITY ~ 

Steward Qin hurriedly shook his head, “Miss, the items have already reduced over and over again. We really cannot be any less.”

“If that’s the case...” Mu Yunyao was in a difficult situation.
“The Shopkeeper at the boat store said that if we want to use the boat, he can leave the best boat to Madam and Young Miss. Why don’t I get someone to ask about it?”

“That’s fine too. If there are boats available, we can take them all with us. We can avoid trouble in the future.”

“Wei Yi, hurry up and go to Xing Shun Boat Company. Tell the Shopkeeper there to leave a few boats behind for us.”

“Yes.”

The moment Wei Yi left, Steward Qin hurriedly turned around to command the others, “Quickly bring out all the things in Young Miss’s storage room. If you have other boats, you can let Young Miss take them away.”

The others quickly complied.

Soon Wei Yi came back, and accompanying her was the owner of Xing Shun Boat Company. “Greetings to Madam and Miss Mu. I, Feng Xing, am the owner of Xing Shun Boat Company. The boat had prepared, and if Madam and Miss are dissatisfied with anything, you can tell me directly. I will do my best.”

Su Qing had a smile on her face. With each movement she made, her demeanor was already extraordinary. “Boss Feng, there is no need to be overly courteous. In your rush, I’m afraid that it may have brought you quite a bit of trouble.”

“How can you say that? During this time, I have succeeded in taking Xing Shun Boat Company to another level through Bun Xian Luo’s help, so I am very grateful to you. I heard that Madam and Miss Mu need a lot of things to take with you, so I picked some quick and efficient workers to help you carry the items up.”

“Thank you.”

Seeing that it was about time, Mu Yunyao accompanied Su Qing out. Just as they stepped out of the door, their footsteps suddenly stopped. Many commoners were standing in front of the gate, and many of them looked reluctant.

“Madam Su, Miss Mu …”

“We are here to see you off. I hope that you and Madam have a safe journey.”

“We have brought some things with us. We hope that Madam and Miss Mu will accept them and not mind them.”

Mu Yunyao and Su Qing were extremely surprised. Looking at their honest faces, they couldn’t help but feel touched, “Many thanks to all of you, my fellow neighbor. We are already very grateful to all of you for coming here and send us off. We all have a hard life, so you should take everything back. We respect it in our hearts.”

After talking for a while longer, Mu Yunyao and Su Qing firmly decided not to accept anything from the people and only repeatedly expressed their gratitude. Seeing that it wasn’t too late, the two of them got on a horse carriage and rushed the dock at the port of Jingling City.

Along the way, people stood on both sides of the street. Thanks and blessings heard all the time. Many more people were waiting on the dock. Seeing Mu Yunyao and Su Qing coming down from the carriage, they hurriedly expressed their blessings.

Mu Yunyao and Su Qing didn’t even have the time to persuade them to return when they saw Governor Zhang and his wife, as well as Li Mu Nian and Lady Zhou, rushing over in a horse carriage.

Everyone immediately knelt down and saluted, and their voices echoed in the sky.

Governor Zhang and others came forward and quickly signaled the people to get up: “Madam Su, Miss Mu, we were busy yesterday and did not have the time to attend the banquet to give back to the people. Today, we heard that Madam and Young Miss are about to leave and return to the Capital, so we rushed over.”

“My Lord is busy with matters of the heart. I’m sorry to trouble you to come over. Our mother and daughter are very sorry.” Su Qing’s face filled with fear. She really did not expect that Governor Zhang would actually come and send them off.

“Jingling City is under my jurisdiction. Madam and Miss Mu have greatly contributed to Jingling City, so I am grateful for the people’s behalf. After knowing that Madam and Young Miss are about to depart, I don’t know when I can see you again. How can I not send you off?”

“Thank you, My Lord.”

“Because in a hurry, I didn’t have time to prepare any gifts. It’s just a little bit of my heart, Madam and Young Miss must accept it.”

Su Qing didn’t refuse too much either. Before coming, Mu Yunyao had told him that she had to accept whatever gifts these people gave her. They give gifts because they wanted to form a good relationship with us, and taking them would signify that we had agreed to this friendship. In the future, we can take care of each other when we have anything in the future, “Thank you, My Lord.”

“Thank You, My Lord!” Wen Mama and the others respectfully followed behind. They had never experienced anything like this before, so they couldn’t help but feel slightly flustered. They all think that although Su Qing and Mu Yunyao had some assets, their lives would be too miserable. But now, it seemed that even Governor Zhang was extremely courteous to them. I don’t know how many people felt better off than they are, but isn’t there a sign of dissatisfaction?

There was a sound of water splashing. Wen Mama and the others carefully looked over, only to see two boats built for both cargo and passengers approaching. Both of them are decorated in a remarkably magnificent manner and has extraordinarily atmospheric. The ship sent by the Su family was in front of these two boats, and it wasn’t expressly impressive.

The boat sent by the Su family to pick up people are not as good as the boats used by Su Qing and Mu Yunyao to carry things?

Wen Mama was already panicking in her heart. She could already imagine what kind of rumors and slanders would appear once the boat arrived in the Capital. She wanted to stop them, but Su Qing and Mu Yunyao talked with Governor Zhang and others, and there was no room for her servants to intervene. Moreover, as soon as the boat docked, Steward Qin ordered people to carry the items of Su Qing and Mu Yunyao one by one. Even if she asked them to do so, would she be able to get them to come down?

Seeing that she was about to board the boat, it is too late to send people to deliver a letter. She had no idea what would happen when she arrived in the Capital!

Wen Mama felt bitter in her mouth. The Old Madam attached great importance to face, so this time she was afraid that the Old Madam would be angry.

Governor Zhang and his wife didn’t stay for long. After talking for a while, they left. Li Munian and Lady Zhou naturally followed after them.

After they had all left, Mu Yunyao looked at Ding Yuelan, who stand at the side. “Madam, after Mother and I leave, I’ll leave Ni Yun Fang to you. Please take care of me, Madam.”

“Please rest assured, Little Owner. I will do my best to manage Ni Yun Fang properly.”

Mu Yunyao nodded her head. Then, she looked towards Cai Qing, Nan’er, and the others who were beside Ding Yuelan. “You guys follow Lady Ding and study well. when you have finished your studies, you can come to find me in the Capital.”

Cai Qing hurriedly nodded with a grateful expression on her face. However, Nan’er was so upset that he wiped away his tears. “Miss, can’t Nan’er go with you?”

“It’s not right now. If Ni Yun Fang can open in the Capital in a while, you, Ah Mao, and Li’er can help out.”

Nan’er obediently nodded, “Nan’er understand. Madam and Miss must take care of themselves.”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but smile. This time, when she left, other than Jin Lan and Jin Qiao, all the other female disciples stayed behind at Ni Yun Fang, waiting for the time to call them into the Capital.

Steward Qin walked over, “Madam and Young Miss, all the things had loaded onto the boat. The maids, the mama, and the others who came with us are on board as well.”Su Qing nodded, “Yao’er, it’s time for us to leave.”

Mu Yunyao nodded slightly. “We’re leaving. We’ll see you later.”

All the people boarded one by one, the rope put away, and the boats slowly moved forward. The sound of the people on both sides of the river was notably loud. It could heard clearly and audible even when the ship far away.

At first, the sound of their farewells was disorderly, but eventually, it unified, “Madam and Young Miss have a good journey, everything goes well!”

~ CANNOT BE LOADED ON THE BOAT ~ 

Su Qing and Mu Yunyao talked to each other for most of the night before finally falling asleep. The next day, the mother and daughter pair woke up early. Just as they finished washing up, they heard from Jin Lan that Wen Mama and the rest were waiting for them at the door. 

Mu Yunyao lightly smiled with an unknown meaning, “They sure are anxious. Take the people to settle down and only leave after eating breakfast.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Wen Mama and the rest arranged to stay in the parlor. As soon as breakfast was served, they heard a noise coming from the doorway. “What’s going on outside?”

“Don’t worry about it, Mama. It’s Shopkeeper Qin with his men from Bu Xian Luo helping Madam and Young Miss clean up the things they need to bring.”

Listening to the activity outside, Wen Mama and the others ate in a slightly absent-minded manner. After eating, they could not restrain their curiosity and got up to take a look at the door. With one look, she could not help but be surprised that there are many boxes in the yard, about a hundred or so in a few counts, and each box was full of them. Just like that, there are still many people holding things in their arms.

Wen Mama was a little dumbfounded. “ Did Madam and Young Miss actually brought so many things with them?”

Liu Mama secretly curled her lips and muttered in her heart: As expected, they came out from the countryside and treated everything like a treasure. Who knows, those boxes might only be filled with pots and pans, pieces and fragments, which makes people laugh when they are bringing it to the Su family.

When Steward Qin saw Wen Mama and the others walk out, he couldn’t help but come forward and pay his respects. “Please wait for a moment. Once the things here had recorded and placed in the box, we will be able to carry them onto the boat.”

“Shopkeeper Qin, you only need to pick some important things and put them away. When Madam and Young Miss arrive at the Su family, they will definitely not lack anything.”

With so many boxes, even the boat might not be able to hold them.

Steward Qin frowned slightly and closed the book in his hand. He opened a box nearby and said, “We can also simplify it now. Look, these boxes contain clothes that Young Miss needs to change all year round. Young Miss love to be clean, and if she’s not really fond of them, she’ll never wear them again, so she’ll need a lot of change on the road.”

As soon as the box opened, the finely embroidered clothes shone brightly. At first glance, it looked so gorgeous, which made Liu Mama, who was standing to one side, was somewhat at a loss for words: These clothes were all elaborately embroidered with a high-quality cloth. Even in the Capital, they were all so eye-catching. She can’t believe that Young Miss wearing it just once？

The corner of Wen Mama’s lips couldn’t help but twitch. “Naturally, I have to bring all Young Miss’s clothes with me.”

Steward Qin nodded with a face full of smiles: “I think that’s also the case. After all, even if they went to the Su family, making clothes now would take some time. I can’t let Young Miss change her clothes without any clothes.” Then he opened the other two boxes.

“This box contains the accessories that Young Miss normally uses. She is extremely particular about clothes and accessories and knows what kind of accessories she should wear, so I can’t leave them alone. Since she has so many pieces on my clothes, she’ll naturally have to match them with jewelry well!”

“That’s true.” Wen Mama carefully examined the contents of the boxes, her heart filled with indescribable complicated feelings. The box that Steward Qin had opened just now were all exceptionally sturdy, and it seemed like they could no longer hold anything else. If the other boxes were like this one, just how many things did Su Qing and Mu Yunyao have?

Steward Qin’s smile became even more brilliant. He pointed at the other boxes and said, “Those boxes are for the Emperor’s bestowal. You had to be very careful about everything the Emperor had given, which is a piece of cloth that should be handled respectfully and must have it with them. The boxes over there contained books Young Miss usually liked to read, and many of them are collected copies. I don’t know if the books are worth a lot of money or not, but there are a lot of tea-lovers who have come to Bu Xian Luo to drink tea to borrow them from time to time.”

It happened that Yun Chun and Wei Yi brought the jade ornaments over, and they were putting them in the box carefully. When Steward Qin saw them, he quickly stopped them: “Didn’t I tell you everything already? Don’t take everything with you, and don’t worry about the jade ornaments. First, take the things that Madam and Young Miss can use, and we will hire a boat to send the rest to the Capital some other day.”

Wei Yi and Yun Chun hurriedly took out the jade ornaments and placed them on a table at the side. “Yes, Shopkeeper Qin.”

“Sigh, these servants have not been trained. It’s quite rude, which makes Mama laugh.” Steward Qin shook his head, “I must teach them the rules in the future. Ming Yin, have you prepared the tea set that Young Miss used to use?”

“This servant has forgotten …I’ll go and get it now...” 

“Sloppy all day. Young Miss has a particular temperament. If she can’t find the tea set she is used to, she will be in a bad mood. There is the whole set of embroidery needles bestowed by the Emperor, also the collection of black and white warm jade chess pieces that she’s used to playing ... What about spices? Young Miss don’t like ambergris fragrance, so she should use the well-prepared vegetarian lilacs. Hey, what are you doing with those porcelains? Those bottles and jars, we’ll only need to buy them when we arrive in the Capital because those will take up space…”

The corner of Wen Mama’s eyes uncontrollably twitched as she looked at the porcelain bottles that Steward Qin had pointed out. If she hadn’t seen it wrongly, all of the porcelain bottles that those people were carrying could be regarded to be top quality, mainly because she had seen a gilded glass vase painted with precious peonies. Wen Mama once saw a similar one in Grand Master’s place, who would not be willing to give it away as he treated it like a treasure and was reluctant to put it out. Instead, he made a red sandalwood box and kept it inside carefully. Rumor said that it was worth more than ten thousand taels of silver...,

The place was bustling with noise and excitement. Mu Yunyao accompanied Su Qing out, “I’ll be troubling Shopkeeper Qin. When I wake up early in the morning, I was busy with the affairs of Mother and me.”

“Greetings, Madam. Greetings, Young Miss. The items have all been packed. Some of the larger items that can’t be placed into boxes only can send it to the Capital with rent a boat.”  

Mu Yunyao glanced at the boxes in the courtyard. “It’s alright. Some items aren’t needed temporarily. I will talk about them later because there are a lot of things to be packed now.”

“In reply to Young Miss, here is only a part of it, and some boxes are put in Jin Xiu Garden, which will be shipped later.”

“Alright, Shopkeeper Qin has always been meticulous in his work, so I am naturally at ease.”Looking at the boxes in the courtyard, Mu Yunyao was in a good mood. After she had silver taels in her hand, she kept buying things in an attempt to make her mother and her life more comfortable. Unknowingly, she had actually bought so many.

“Wen Mama, we can set off now.”

Wen Mama’s expression was a little stiff. Hearing Mu Yunyao’s words, she immediately came back to her senses and said with some difficulty. “In reply Young Miss, I’m afraid the boat won’t be able to hold that many things …”

Mu Yunyao’s brows slightly moved, as though she wanted to frown. But in the blink of an eye, she returned to normal. “Can’t hold it? Could Supervisor Qin possibly make it simpler?”

~ GIVE IT BACK TO THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY ~

Li Munian turned to Mu Yunyao and Su Qing with a gentle expression, “Madam and Miss must have come out early, and I presume they also haven’t eaten anything yet. It’s just that there’s a table over there, especially for the people who donated silver taels. How about we go over and eat something together?”

Mu Yunyao looked at the table that Li Munian was pointing to her. Because the people of the whole city gathered here, so there was no need to pay too much attention to the rules. There are only two tables next to each other, one for men and the other for women.

Su Qing nodded her head. “We’ll follow along.”

Lady Zhou affectionately held onto Su Qing’s arm, “Does Madam Su have any restrictions to eat? I’ll repeatedly tell the people cooking below to pay extra attention to it.”

“Thank you for your concern, Madam. It’s already good enough for people in the countryside to have something to eat, so there’s nothing to avoid.” When Su Qing said this, her expression was extremely calm, causing Lady Zhou to hold her in high regard. If she could face up to look at her background so calmly, Madam Su’s mind was not ordinary either.

Mu Yunyao spoke, “A few days ago, the commoners sent over a lot of vegetables and fruits, and some people even tied up a few hens to our doorsteps. I’ve asked them to keep them in Jin Xiu Garden. It just happened to be delivered, so let’s have a taste of Baijiafan, too.”

Lady Zhou nodded her head repeatedly. “That’s good.”

Today, the entire Jingling City was bustling with noise and excitement. Many of the people nearby wanted to enter as soon as they heard the commotion. They had initially thought that the guard would stop them. However, they did not expect the guards to let them in and order them not to cause trouble inside the city.

However, they didn’t expect to be ordered by the guard not to cause trouble and let them enter the city.

Li Munian was extremely considerate. He contacted a few big grain merchants and sent over a lot of food, filling up several warehouses on the dock. However, he agreed on the terms and conditions that he would settle the bill for all the food the people received today. When the grain doesn’t use up, he will help the grain merchants sell the grain to other places.

The grain merchants were willing to accept this benevolent title. Thus, after a moment of consideration, they agreed. In this way, they would be able to repay the people in the city with extraordinary agility.

Those who were willing to take the food would go and register. After people have recorded information about themselves, they will be able to claim food according to the number of family members. If one’s family couldn’t eat all of the food, they could directly receive a silver tael equivalent to the food price, and they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

Because there are too many people in the city, they were still making porridge this time, but the atmosphere was even more lively than at Laba Festival.

Everyone on the street has a smile on their faces. Many orphans and beggars took their bowls and found a corner where they could eat in peace. They were eating happily, and their faces had a few traces of anger. The hot porridge went down to their stomachs, and they were sweating profusely. They raised their sleeve and wiped it with a feeling of satisfaction.

Many beggars were hungry and scared. It was not easy for them to get a full meal, and after drinking a bowl, they carefully wanted to get another bowl of porridge. On one side, a young master dressed in luxurious clothing walked by, and seeing his eager look, he coldly snorted and poured the porridge in his hand into half of his bowl, then threw two copper plates over:

“If I can’t finish, I’ll give it to you. If you’re still not full after, I’ll find someone to buy two steamed buns. It’s not easy to make porridge. It’s been burning and simmering up till now! Don’t be too greedy.”

The beggar was stunned for a moment, and then he took the bowl and bowed, “Thank you, Young Master. Thank you, Young Master. Young Master kindness will definitely be rewarded.”

The well-dressed Young Master carried the half bowl of porridge and walked away, feeling extremely pleased with himself, “I am a kind-hearted person, hahaha!”

The officials in Jingling City looked at the surrounding scenes, and their minds were full of a myriad of thoughts.

Mu Yunyao sat with Su Qing, watching the scene around them, and a warm feeling flowed through her heart. The smile on her lips was faint, but it was exceptionally genuine.

Lady Zhou seemed to have sensed something. “This said that the world is peaceful and prosperous, but even in the Capital, it’s hard to see such a thriving scene today.”

Mu Yunyao withdrew her gaze, her gaze clear enough to see the end, “The human heart is kind, but it’s just that it lacks guidance. Today, it’s only igniting a little bit of kindness, but what we reap is a prairie fire.”

Lady Zhou was startled and turned her head to look at Mu Yunyao. With eyes filled with admiration, she said, “Miss Mu is indeed knowledgeable.” She couldn’t help but think of what Li Munian had said before. When a girl like Mu Yunyao, coming to Zhou’s family, they had really wronged her. She merely didn’t know how the Su family would treat their granddaughter. If they underestimated her in the future, I would definitely have a lot of fun looking at it.

They busied for the entire day, and it was only when the sky turned completely dark that the crowd gradually dispersed.

When Mu Yunyao and Su Qing returned home, the corners of their mouths still raised unconsciously. They felt that even though they had worked hard and tired today, they were still quite fulfilled. Coming to the parlor, Wen Mama and the others stood with their hands hanging by their sides.

Su Qing said, “We have more or less dealt with the matters in Jingling City and have finished packing up everything. So, let’s leave for the Capital tomorrow!”

Wen Mama nodded her head hastily. “Yes, the boats have already been arranged. If there’s anything Madam and Miss need to take away, feel free to tell them to load it tomorrow morning.” Although the Su family didn’t send someone in charge to take over, they still had to do something about their face, so they specially prepared a two-story boat, which was extremely luxurious.

Su Qing nodded, “Alright. Then Wen Mama, you guys should go rest early. We’ll leave tomorrow morning.”

“Yes.”

After leaving the parlor, Wen Mama couldn’t help but turn her head and happened to see Mu Yunyao talking against Su Qing.

Liu Mama followed her gaze and couldn’t help but secretly pout her lips. After she returned to Bu Xian Luo and closed the door, she said, “I really didn’t expect that Miss Mu would be able to earn that much silver by opening a small workshop and tea house. In total, it’s only been a year, but ten thousand taels of silver were thrown out just like that. It’s really very generous of her to say that.”

“The silver belongs to someone else, so naturally, you can spend it as you like.” Wen Mama’s expression didn’t change in the slightest.

Liu Mama realized that her tone was too sour and quickly smiled. “Elder sister, don’t be angry. I was just casually saying it. Since Madam and Miss haven’t been to the Capital, they naturally don’t know that they have spent a lot of silver in the Capital. Now they have spent all their silver, and they earn enough reputation. But once they reached the Capital, wouldn’t they need to rely on the Su family to make up for it? It’s not easy for the Eldest Madam to take charge of the family...”

“It’s getting late. We still have to get up early tomorrow. Hurry up and rest.” After Wen Mama finished speaking, she immediately got up to wash her face.

Mother Liu was not amused. She could not help humming to herself: It seems like the Old Madam has quite a deep affection for her long-lost daughter and her granddaughter. Otherwise, this Wen Mama wouldn’t have protected them like this. She should have told the Eldest Madam in advance to prevent herself suffer losses in their mother and daughter’s hands.

On the last night before their departure, Mu Yunyao insisted on pestering Su Qing to sleep with her. Su Qing had no choice but to agree. The mother and daughter pair had finished washing their faces and were lying on the bed in their clothes. Mu Yunyao pulled Su Qing’s arm and rolled into it. “Mother, I can’t sleep.”

Su Qing did the same as she extended her arms to embrace Mu Yunyao, “Mother must have hugged a darling.”

“Didn’t mother say that I am a pampered girl? Now, I became a darling?” Mu Yunyao leaned on Su Qing and acted like a spoiled child.

“Mother is so casual, do you take it seriously? However, the skin on the face has not changed at all.”

“I feel like I’m following Mother. Who told me to care about you the most!”

“Good, you actually dared to plot against me. Mother is going to get angry.”

“Mother, don’t be angry. How about Yao’er will pinch her face to vent your anger?”

~ LI MUNIAN WHO CHOKED TO DEATH ~ 

Mu Yunyao got up early and went to her room to accompany Su Qing after freshening up. “Mother, once we have done with today’s affairs, we will leave Jingling City tomorrow. Do you feel nervous?”

“I was still nervous at first, but now that after such a long time, I’m looking forward to it. I have to take a good look at who treated my Yaoer harshly in her previous life.”

 
When she didn’t come into contact with him, she regarded the Su family as a scourge. However, now she really came into contact with the Su family’s subordinates. After a closer look, it was just like that. The fear in her heart lessened slightly, but she began to become angry with the Su family’s action from the previous life and want to see if they are really black-hearted!

“Mother would probably be disappointed when you see them. Just from their appearances, they look like fairy concubines, but if you could see their hearts, all of them would have long since turned black and stank.” Thinking of her previous life in the Su family, Mu Yunyao’s eyes flashed with hatred, causing her entire body to turn gloomy a lot.

Su Qing took a jade hairpin from the jewelry box and helped Mu Yunyao put it on. Then she stepped back two steps to appreciate her appearance: “Yao’er is really beautiful by nature, and she looks good in everything she wears.”

Mu Yunyao was stunned, and the gloomy aura around her instantly dissipated. “Mother?”

Su Qing caressed Mu Yunyao’s hair and said gently, “To Mother, Yao’er is the most beautiful when she smiled. Anyone who looks at you would feel much happier with you, and you seemed to be able to enjoy yourself even more. No matter if the Su family’s heart is dark or white, in the end, we don’t see them as family. I know that Yao’er wants them more or less trying to get revenge, and Mother will support you as well. However, if your personality changes because of them, then it will no longer be worth it!”

Mu Yunyao was silent for a moment. “Fortunately, Mother is by my side. If you weren’t there, who knows what might have happened to me?”

Looking at Mu Yunyao’s appearance, Su Qing’s heart felt as if a dull knife was gouging her out, “My daughter is better off than them, and you can consider it as my biggest revenge. Mother doesn’t want you to look back at yourself after revenge and turned into a monster exactly like the Su family! Can Yao’er understand what Mother is thinking?”

Mu Yunyao nodded her head heavily: “Mother, I understand. Please don’t worry. I definitely won’t let myself become like the Su Family.” Mother hopes that her life is happy and worry-free, and her temperament is clear and pure. Then, as long as she was here, I would definitely work hard to retain the kindness and try to live the way Mother wants to see.

Su Qing smiled gently, “Alright, we won’t be eating breakfast at home today. We’ll be going to the bustling city together with everyone. After staying in Jingling City for a long time, and we suddenly have to leave, I was really reluctant.”

“Mother likes it here. When we have time, we can come back and have a look at any time.”

“You and I are a family. As long as we are together, it doesn’t matter where we are.” Su Qing led Mu Yunyao out of the door. Just as they walked out, they saw Wen Mama and the rest walking in.

“Greetings, Madam. Greetings, Miss. There are so many people on the street right now, so if Madam and Miss want to go out, you should bring more people with you so they’ll be at your disposal anytime.” Wen Mama said after saluting.

Mu Yunyao glanced at Wen Mama with a smile. “Since that’s the case, then I’ll ask Wen Mama to bring some people along. It’s also a glorious opportunity to come into contact with the local customs and traditions of Jingling City. The people here treat people with gentleness, and they’re especially kind.” She didn’t want to like the Su family in Capital, who eat people without spitting out their bones.

Wen Mama felt that Mu Yunyao’s words contained some hidden meaning. But after careful consideration, she thought that it was impossible. She could only nod in agreement as she commanded the maidservants behind her to follow.

Having gone through the experience of making porridge during the Laba Festival, the people at Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo were somewhat familiar with some of the processes. Many things were much more proficient than others, so most people gathered here.

Mu Yunyao and Su Qing had just walked out of the residence when someone saw them. They hurriedly came up to greet them. Their voices were all noisy, and they couldn’t hear many things, but they could clearly feel their goodwill and gratitude.

“Thank you, Madam Su. Thank you, Miss Mu!”

“Madam and Young Miss are are kind-hearted, and they will remember us at all times, which really touched our hearts.”

“Madam and Young Miss, good people will receive good rewards. They will definitely live a peaceful life without any worries!”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but smile. The kindness gathered together made people feel warm in their hearts, “Fellow neighbors, no need to be courteous. We will leave Jingling City tomorrow and return to the Capital’s Su family. Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo will remain here, and I hope fellow villagers can help to take care of them!”

“Don’t worry, Miss. As long as we’re here, we won’t let anyone touch Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo.”

“That’s right. Miss, don’t worry...”

Li Munian and Lady Zhou walked over with some people, the surrounding people gradually dispersed, and happily went to the table aside to collect rice.

“Greetings to Lord Li and Lady Zhou.”

“There is no need for Madam and Young Miss to be so courteous.” Li Mu Nian stepped forward and supported them, his expression especially warm. “Please take a look, is there anything else that I am not meticulous enough?”

Su Qing quickly shook her head, “Lord Li is meticulous in everything he does. What is there to be careless about?”

“I am only doing my best, and it also depends on the kind heart of Madam and Young Miss. Otherwise, I would be powerless to do something for the people even if I wanted to.” As Li Munian spoke, his eyes swept past Wen Mama, and his eyes filled with doubt, “Earlier, I heard that the Su family came to pick up Madam and Young Miss. Why haven’t I seen the Su family?”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes moved, and a smile flashed in her heart. Li Munian was returning the favor, and he wanted to help her out. If he is an ordinary person, he will not dare to say such a thing at this time, but Li Munian was different. He was Li Qingzhou’s biological son, and the Li family had faintly suppressed the Su family. The Li family members were naturally all reputable figures, and Wen Mama was far from qualified to come forward and represent the Su family. Wen Mama on the side hurriedly stepped forward to salute, with a very respectful expression: “This servant greets Lord Li.”

“You seem a bit nice. Have we met before?”

“This servant has followed theOld Madam of the Su family and met Lord Li once before ….”

“Hmm, in that case, you’re here to pick up Madam Su and Miss Mu?” Li Munian frowned, a hint of displeasure on his face.

“Yes, because …” Wen Mama hastened to explain.

However, Li Munian did not have the patience to listen to her: “Although right now the court is so busy, and the Su family’s elders are busy sharing the Emperor’s worries. But it’s not like all of them are too busy to actually send a few servants to pick up Madam and Young Miss. It’s really not good manners.”

Wen Mama’s expression froze, but she couldn’t help but smile. “Your Excellency …”

“Alright, about the matter of the Su family, I, an outsider, cannot interject too much. Since they’ve sent you to pick them up, you must take good care of them along the way. Madam Su and Miss Mu are the benefactors of the entire Jingling City, and even if there are the slightest mishaps, you will not be able to afford it.

Wen Mama’s mouth was interrupted several times, but all she could do was smile. “Yes. Milord, please be at ease. This servant will definitely take good care of Madam and Young Miss.

Incurable Chapter 13 Part 2

Liu Qianxiu’s impression is so deep that even his phone number tastes out of the ordinary, with a touch of indifference. 

However, Mu Wan merely liked it even though it was a bunch of numbers.

Mu Wan smiled, but she was too focused and didn’t notice Gao Mei come over until she felt a volcano rushing toward her. Mu Wan turned and saw Gao Mei’s plump body and smiling eyes.

“Are you falling in love?” Gao Mei’s face is full of gossip.

Mu Wan locked her mobile phone, and her smiling face appeared on the screen. She wore a high ponytail, her small face was fully exposed, and her charm was full of heroism.

Putting the mobile phone away, Mu Wan said, “Not yet.”

“Well, what does that mean?” Gao Mei’s tone pulled up, and her small eyes widened, “Is the ambiguous period?”

When Gao Mei came over, she covered up the wind, and Mu Wan felt hot. She opened the paper fan, chilled her heated cheeks, and confessed openly: “Yes.”

“I asked why you go to see cats every day in the past few days, so it was because you were going to see your sweetheart.” Gao Mei knows it very well. Taking the script in her hand, she patted Mu Wan.

When Gao Mei patted her, she fanned a cool breeze. Mu Wan laughed, looked at the script in her hand, and asked, “Did you take this drama, too?”

“Red Embroidery” is written on the cover of the script. Obviously, Gao Mei is going to be a crew with her again. It is a good thing, and they will not be too bored when the two of them are waiting for filming.

“Yes, it’s going to start on the 30th. Today is Friday, isn’t that next Monday?” Gao Mei said and counted the time, “So you and your sweetheart are going to have a long-distance relationship.”

“Red Embroidery” is a medical drama set in the Republic of China. Many scenes in this series will be shot in Wencheng Central Hospital. Wencheng is an old city, and this first hospital was built in the Republic of China period and is still well preserved.

Li Nan hasn’t notified her of the specific start time. But after the filming starts, the actors will go to the group to stand by. Mu Wan fanned the paper fan, and the heat steamed onto her face.

Mu Wan fanned again, thinking to herself. Wencheng is not far away, but they could not return when shooting night scenes. She doesn’t want to be separated from Liu Qianxiu, but she only has a small share of the film and can finish it in a week..,

“By the way, do you know the heroine of “Red Embroidery”? Today, the official announced that he has the same surname as you.” Gao Mei said.

As soon as the dryness in Mu Wan’s heart receded, Mother Wu’s words sounded in her ears. Mu Qing met a boyfriend from the Shen family.

Looking back at Gao Mei, Mu Wan asked: “What’s her name?”

“Mu Qing.”

Mu Wan’s lips closed.

Coming out of the operating room, Liu Qianxiu took off his mask. When the little nurse came to take off his surgical gown, she said to him, “Doctor Liu, the dean is looking for you and waiting for you in your office.”

He removed his gloves, and Liu Qianxiu replied indifferently, “Okay.”

After speaking, he got up and left.

Xiao Tan, the dean of Tang’er Hospital, was Liu Qianxiu’s senior at Imperial University. Tang’er Hospital is a hospital under the Xiao family group. Xiao Tan worked in Tang’er Hospital after graduation and served as the dean of Tang’er Hospital last year. He also hired Liu Qianxiu at the Tang’er Hospital.

Most department employees knew the two were related, and Xiao Tan occasionally came to the office to look for him. Liu Qianxiu pushed the door into the office, and Xiao Tan sat beside him, looking at the medical record of his recent operation.

Seeing him coming in, Xiao Tan looked up and said with a smile: “Is the operation finished?”

Xiao Tan is 37 years old this year and has good looks, a decent appearance, and a refined temperament. Although he is the dean, he is gentle and not too serious.

After Liu Qianxiu answered, he sat on the chair behind his desk. The chair moved slightly and made a noise. Liu Qianxiu looked up, turned his head and neck around, and stretched out his hand to message it.

After three hours of surgery, he was a little tired.

“There will be no surgery again today, right?” Xiao Tan asked.

Having known him for many years, Liu Qianxiu understands Xiao Tan’s nature. He leaned forward, opened his eyes to look at Xiao Tan, and asked in a deep voice, “What’s the matter?”

Liu Qianxiu was straightforward, and Xiao Tan didn’t beat around the bush. After a faint smile, he asked: “Last time you performed an operation on Doctor Xiao’s grandpa, and Doctor Xiao wants to invite you to a meal to say thank you.”

After all, Xiao Tan and Xiao Yun are distant relatives, but the relationship between the two of them has not yet come out. His father was a person with great affection. Before Xiao Yun came to the hospital, Xiao Tan’s father asked him to take good care of Xiao Yun.

Xiao Tan is young but is already in a prominent position and often interacts with people. Xiao Yun said a word of thanks to Liu Qianxiu, and Xiao Tan could see her thoughts from her expression.

Liu Qianxiu is excellent, and Xiao Yun is gentle. Both of them are great surgeons and share the same language. One has a cold personality, and the other is shy and dignified, so there is always a slight difference between them.

After Xiao Tan finished speaking, Liu Qianxiu stared in a daze at the orchid on the windowsill. It was light green leaves, bright blue flowers, and small air.

“Qianxiu?” Xiao Tan called to him.

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu’s expression remained unchanged. He looked at Xiao Tan and said: “It’s what I should do. No need to say thank you.”

“Are you going to have something tonight?” Xiao Tan asked.

Liu Qianxiu denied: “No.”

“Then it’s settled.” Xiao Tan ignored his refusal and agreed on his behalf, “You are a doctor. In addition to treating patients and saving people, you should also socialize. You don’t go to hospital meetings on weekdays. The whole hospital won’t recognize me? I’ll sell you my face today. I’ll go together with you.”

After speaking, Xiao Tan patted him on the shoulder and said, “That’s it. See you at Masyale Western Restaurant at 7 o’clock tonight.”

Xiao Tan got up, opened the door, and left.

The filming of the last scene was long. It was already 6 o’clock when the filming ended. Mu Wan then called Liu Qianxiu to ask him if he had finished getting off work. The man there quickly answered the phone and said, “Hello.” When Mu Wan heard it, she felt sweet and began to smile.

“Are you getting off work?” Mu Wan asked.

“Just got off.” The other end of the phone was too quiet, and Liu Qianxiu ‘s voice was purer and more pleasant.

“Ah~” Mu Wan felt regretful when she heard it. She hurriedly walked to the film and television city intersection and looked up at the taxi on the roadside. It’s too hot today, and it’s over six o’clock. It’s time to change shifts, so the taxis are difficult to find.

“Today, I can’t wait for you.” Mu Wan said, “Should I go directly to your house?”

Liu Qianxiu refused Mu Wan and said, “Doctor Xiao invited me to dinner tonight, and I won’t go home until later. “

Who is Doctor Xiao?

Standing still, Mu Wan narrowed her eyes, remembering the doctor she met two days ago and her despised eyes. Isn’t she reserved and dignified? Why did she start to take the initiative?

There is a better time to think about this.

There was a dry fire in Mu Wan’s heart. Whether it’s a sense of crisis or something else, Mu Wan retracted her hand from stopping the taxi and asked Liu Qianxiu.

“Aren’t you not going to eat out?” He said last time that she would invite him out for dinner. Why did Doctor Xiao ask him to go out to eat and be willing to go out?

Mu Wan asked: “When you finish eating, can I still go to see the cat?” In the receiver, the woman is like an anxious cat, stretching out her sharp claws to reach the dried fish that is about to be snatched away by others. When she can’t get it, she questions with a grievance in her rage.

Liu Qianxiu asked calmly: “Are you eating alone?”

“Yeah.” Mu Wan snorted and frowned, “You haven’t answered my question yet...”

“Shall we go together?” Asked Liu Qianxiu.

Mu Wan’s pupils dilated slightly.

The heat in her body was like swelling marshmallows entwined into a big ball. When Liu Qianxiu gently bit it, it melted on the tip of his tongue, sweet and with no trace.

“Can I go?” Mu Wan asked.

On the phone, her tone has softened.

Liu Qianxiu answered lightly and said, “I’ll take you.”

“Good.”

The author has something to say: 

Liu Daochang: I don't know what to say.

Incurable Chapter 13 Part 1

He paused every word. His tone was calm, like a wall clock pendulum beating Mu Wan’s eardrums back and forth. When it’s time to report on the hour, the “dang” sound is heard, and Mu Wan’s heart pounds fast.

The night was silent, and there was a meow from the cat room around the corner.

Her red lips parted, and the man beside her got up. She moved her gaze and raised her head, her eyes sparkling, reflecting Liu Qianxiu’s shadow.

“Wake up.” Liu Qianxiu said, looking down at her.

Her throat moved slightly, and her heartbeat was still beating. Mu Wan smiled satisfyingly and sweetly, as though she had eaten sweet candy without being noticed.

She stood up, her red dress spread down to show her two white legs. As she walked to the kitten room, she said, “Let me see if Ertong’s eyes have opened or not.”

Seeing Mu Wan enter the kitten’s room, Liu Qianxiu’s eyes fell and stayed on The Book of Ethics she had just put down.

Ertong’s eyes were also light golden, just like Datou and Zhongfen’s eyes, and their eyes had fully opened. Ertong and Zhongfen's eyes are relatively round, while the big head has drooping eyes. The little ball was sad and lovely, with its eyes open to drink milk.

Ertong opened its eyes when Mu Wan was about to leave. She stood in the hallway, holding on to the cold wall and taking off her slippers. The tiptoe’s narrow instep connected the upper leg. Under the red dress was a dazzling white.

Mu Wan put on her high-heeled shoes, and the heels made a “ding” sound on the ground. But when Liu Qianxiu spoke, there was no sound from the heels.

The tail of his eyes swept her legs under her red dress, and the time showed that it was already half past nine.

Liu Qianxiu spoke with a bland expression.

“How are you going back?”

The living room lights were still on, but the lights in the hall weren’t yet on. The table lamp was dim. Liu Qianxiu was standing in the backlight. His back was tall and straight, and his facial features were sharp and handsome.

“Taxi.” Mu Wan replied to Liu Qianxiu. She took out her mobile phone and looked at the time. The screen lit up her face, and her small face was troubled.

“It’s not easy to take a taxi now,” Mu Wan said.

Before she finished speaking, a figure appeared before her and enveloped her. Mu Wan looked up, and the phone’s screen illuminated Liu Qianxiu’s face. He changed his shoes and said, “I will send you.”

“He sent me home yesterday.” Mu Wan found a wall to sit down on, opened the prop paper fan in her hand, and fanned herself. She wore a costume with wide cuffs that pinched her waist, and the neckline was layered and airtight.

The temperature was 35 degrees, and the heat made Mu Wan sweaty. She had just finished filming a fight scene, and the assistant director didn’t let her remove her costume, saying he would show it to the director. Mu Wan can take the clothes off if he can use the scene, or she will have to shoot again.

“Fuck, fuck, you can do it, Mu Wan. How’s it going? Liu Daochang’s bed skills...” Lin Wei was very excited.

“We didn’t do anything.” Mu Wan closed the fan in her hand, lifted her cuffs, and wiped off the sweat. She recalled yesterday’s event, with the corners of her lips rising and kicking a small stone with her foot, and said: “He only take me home. That’s it.”

“He took you home, and you didn’t invite him to sit at your house?” Lin Wei asked depressedly and excitedly.

“No.” Mu Wan said, “He has to rest at ten o’clock, and I will let him go after he takes me home.”

Lin Wei: “...”

She was single, really within the strength of her abilities.

However, Lin Wei also understands that Mu Wan differs from hers and emphasizes spiritual and physical interaction. Mu Wan thought physical exchange occurs naturally after the spiritual reaches a certain level.

“Then what other developments did you two have yesterday?” Lin Wei asked differently, “Is that whether you are sure that Liu Daochang likes you?”

The paper fanned her bangs, blew a cool breeze, and the heat dissipated a little. Mu Wan thought of Liu Qianxiu’s face under the desk lamp and said: “I asked him yesterday if he liked living alone? Then, he asked me why I asked. So, I replied because he has always lived alone.”

Regarding the crucial point, Mu Wan spoke with a tone that seemed to be laughing. Lin Wei was about to die of anxiety and urged: “Then what did he say?”

“Oh.” Mu Wan regained consciousness. Her ears were a little hot, and she said: “He said that now, right now, there are two people.”

After listening to Mu Wan’s answer, with Liu Qianxiu’s cold and dusty face in her mind, Lin Wei got goosebumps.

“Mu Wan, come and do it again!” the assistant director shouted.

“Okay.” Mu Wan got up from the ground, patted the mud, and said to Lin Wei: “I do not know what he meant, but I feel like I like him better. I’ll go and shoot first.”

After speaking, Mu Wan hung up the phone.

Lin Wei couldn’t return to her senses from her last explosion for a long time. She could even think of the scene at that time. Under the lamplight, there was a man and a woman. The man was extraordinary, handsome, and thin, while the woman was charming, bright, innocent, and soft.

A fairy and a demon. No matter how powerful the devil is, how can it escape from the palm of a god? In the end, Mu Wan, who moved first, would definitely be turned back by Liu Daochang.

Right now, there are two people.

Liu Daochang is okay, usually pure-hearted, and has little desire. She also has an abstinent face, so it’s very touching when he talks about something emotional in a set of words.

That’s what it’s like in the authentic abstinence system.

After reshooting the film, Mu Wan had a short rest time. She took the paper fan and went to the rest area. The rest of ​​the crew is in a big open room with many supporting actors and actresses. The assistant director called in the actors to prepare some scenes, and the makeup artist shouted, which was very lively.

It’s past two o’clock in the afternoon, and Mu Wan still has the last scene. She can leave after shooting the film and estimates that the filming will be completed at about four o’clock. She found a corner to sit down, put her elbows on her knees, and took her mobile phone out.

After leaving last night, Mu Wan has yet to contact Liu Qianxiu. After so many days, Mu Wan only asked him when he was off work after she finished filming and then went to pick him up.

In the crew, Mu Wan rarely played with mobile phones. She only played a few games of Plants vs. Zombies when bored. Later, after Krypton passed all levels, she lost interest. There were very few apps on the phone. Mu Wan opened the address book and found Liu Qianxiu’s contact card.

She saved it as Liu Daochang.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 240

~ GIVE BACK TO THE PEOPLE ~ 

“Lord Li is flattering me. Actually, I have other thoughts in my mind. I only hope you don’t laugh at me when I say it.” Mu Yunyao lowered her head slightly and smiling a little more nervously.

“Please speak, Miss Mu.” 

“During my stay in Jingling City, my mother and I have come into contact with many madams and ladies from various families. They are very kind-hearted and take great care of us. Previously, my adoptive mother and I were discussing the Laba porridge festival. Many madams regret that they were unable to participate in the festival. This time around, we can consider it as having a meaningful act of kindness to the entire Jingling City. If it is feasible, could Lord Li call for more people to participate in it?”

Li Munian’s eyes moved and quickly thought about it: “Miss Mu is indeed intelligent. If more people participate in it, it would be a fortunate thing for the people of Jingling City!”

Mu Yunyao nodded her head. “It’s good that Lord Li doesn’t think I’m doing whimsical. I’ll have to trouble Lord Li to manage this matter. For Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo, I’ll follow Lord’s arrangements.”

“Alright, I’ll give you all the credit.”

“Everything was arranged by Lord Li. I just paid some silver coins, so you can’t consider it a big deal.”

After Li Munian and Mu Yunyao finished talking about their proper business, Lady Zhou asked Mu Yunyao to have dinner in the mansion before going back. She had refused it as the reason to go home and pack up her things. Lady Zhou ordered someone to send Mu Yunyao home. After Mu Yunyao had left, she couldn’t help but praise, “If Mu Yunyao hadn’t come from too low a family background, I would even want to bring her to the Zhou family. With her intelligence and disposition, she will definitely be of great help to the family.”

Li Munia let out a chuckle, “You think that her background is too low, but who knows if she might be looking down on the Zhou Family? Miss Mu has quite an interesting mind.”

Lady Zhou raised her brows. “Master, what do you mean by that?”

“Madam, please don’t be angry. It’s not that I look down on my father-in-law’s family. But when I look at Mu Yunyao’s every word and action, I don’t think she’s a person from the pool. Why does Madam think that she want to hurriedly give back to the people of Jingling City before she left?”

Lady Zhou’s eyes moved. “… … …This was … if you want to make a name for yourself, why don’t you give the Su family a bad impression?”

“During this time, the Emperor had suppressed the Li family, and the Su family is very proud” Li Mu Nian smiled and nodded as admitting it. “I will find someone to discuss now. If it’s too late, I can sleep in the study room. Madam doesn’t have to wait for me. Mu Yunyao wanted to light the fire, so I’ll add two sticks of firewood and pour a ladle of hot oil for her...,”

In the following time, many ordinary people found that the entire Jingling City seemed to be bustling with activity. Mu Yunyao united with other families to donate silver, and the total amount reached one hundred and fifty thousand silver taels.

Li Munian was also a courageous person. He did not use all the silver to buy grain and distribute it to the people. Instead, he used a portion of his silver taels to build water canals, repair rivers, rebuild the streets, and rebuild the charity bureau ..… All kinds of good deeds causing the entire Jingling City to appear prosperous and flourishing, as though the future is full of infinite vitality.

When the commoners heard the news, they rushed to tell each other, especially Mu Yunyao, who had donated a hundred thousand taels of silver. Previously, they had thought that her Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo was too eye-catching, but now that they knew she had taken out all the silver she had earned in a year, even the envious peers could not help but raise their thumbs and praise.

Wen Mama and the others stood next to Bu Xian Luo’s window and allowing them to see the entire Su family clearly from here.

In front of the Su family’s residence, many people brought over fruits and vegetables. They quietly placed them at the door and paid their respects before leaving. Some people even tied some hens in baskets and left them at the door.

Liu Mama, who had accompanied Wen Mama, had an unfriendly look in her eyes. “This Miss Biao really knows how to win a good reputation. In terms of reputation alone, I’m afraid that even Eldest Madam will be slightly inferior.”

Wen Mama turned around and glanced at her. Liu Mama was the person beside the Eldest Madam. Although she couldn’t be considered a confidant, she still had quite a bit of trust in her and had some face in the Su family. “What is the comparison between the two of them?”

The corner of Liu Mama’s mouth rose. “Indeed. It’s really nothing similar! One was a phoenix flying in the sky, while the other was pheasant plowing on the ground, which is different from the root.”

Wen Mama shut her eyes and didn’t say anything.

Batches after batches of food had been sent into the Jingling City. Many of the surrounding cities had shocked as well. It was unknown just how many people were envious of the people of Jingling City!

Over the past year or so, the entire Jingling City has undergone tremendous changes. The women in Jingling City have learned the best embroidery skills, and they can earn two taels of silver with a slight movement of their needlework. With the support of Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Lou, the men have frequent business contacts. Even hard-working men earn more than ten cents a day than other places.

When Mu Yunyao heard that someone had placed something in front of the Su family’s residence, she immediately wrote a sign and hung it up. She hoped that the people would not be so polite, but it didn’t work. The people still kept putting things at her door.

Mu Yunyao thought about it carefully and then asked people to gather the things together and put them in Jin Xiu Garden. She was only waiting for the day when she would give these things back to the people of Jingling City. She will make these things into food so that more people could benefit from it.

After hearing this, ordinary people even more moved. Many people specially delivered the items to Jin Xiu Garden and begged Steward Qin to accept them, saying that they would also contribute to Jingling City’s people. Many merchants also rushed over, the status of merchants was not high, and they were considered unwelcome in the past. After Mu Yunyao had done many good deeds for the people, the people’s attitude towards the merchants had changed a lot. The merchants naturally returned the favor, hoping to earn some good reputation for themselves.

Mu Yunyao didn’t decide on her own accord. She recorded down the person who wanted to donate the silver and passed the name list over to Li Munian.

Li Munian was not a pedantic person, and he didn’t mean to look down on the merchants at all. After he knew about it, he even made the government announce a notice to commend the merchants who took the initiative to offer silver. The merchant who went to deliver the silver just a moment ago had almost trampled on the threshold of the government office.

Li Munian received nearly 40 thousand taels of silver again. After making up 200,000 silver, he used some of it to buy food. The other part was written as a notice and was posted on the wall at the government office’s gate, stating that the remaining silver was for future emergency use. The weather in Jingling City was smooth sailing. If he used it now, it would be like icing on the cake of the ordinary people. However, if it was a year of disaster, these silver taels could save countless lives.

In order to prevent the people from thinking over much, he wrote down the items for the silver taels in detail. He also explained what kind of things they would buy in the future, then posted a notice to inform the entire city.

The commoners were not greedy. After hearing this, they think it is very reasonable, and not many people oppose it.

After preparing for nearly half a month, July 20th, a drizzle had fallen in the morning. After the sky had cleared, the breeze was gentle, and the weather was surprisingly fresh. Jingling City’s people took to the streets one after another and concentrated on several streets near Bu Xian Luo.
