Incurable Chapter 66 What Did You Say? (2)

What Did You Say? After Mu Wan finished exchanging affectionate messages with Liu Qianxiu, she received a call from Lin Wei. The postpartum nanny had just entered to feed Anzhi. Mu Wan took her phone and walked toward the window. The sunlight outside was bright and warm. She narrowed her eyes against it and answered. Before she could say anything, the sound of a baby crying came through the phone, followed by Lin Wei frantically trying to soothe him. Mu Wan waited until she had finally calmed him down before asking, “Why is Little Seedling crying?” Little Seedling was the nickname of Lin Wei’s son. His full name was Lu Yihe. He was one month older than Liu Anzhi. Lu Yihe had certainly caused Lin Wei plenty of trouble while still in her stomach. But after being born, he was actually very well behaved and rarely cried. “What else could it be?” Lin Wei sighed. “He wants to go out and play. Everything else about him is fine, but his heart is already wild. I don’t even need to think about i...

Chapter 112: The Tea House—Buxian Tower “Many thanks, my lord. I have tea gardens in my hands, and the tea house I opened will also begin business tomorrow. I will certainly manage it well and spread the name of Buxian Tower far and wide. Perhaps in a few years, when my tea house has grown large enough, I may even be able to open one in the Capital. At that time, I will be able to kneel outside the imperial palace and give thanks for His Majesty’s grace.” Su Qingwu had been studying Mu Yunyao all along, the light in his eyes shifting. “Buxian Tower? A tea house named Buxian Tower. Does this name have some particular meaning?” “I opened the tea house within a garden. In that garden stands a six-story tower. I wish for that place to become somewhere where true connoisseurs and lovers of tea may gather and exchange their thoughts. The Tea Sage once wrote: I envy not golden wine vessels; I envy not white jade cups. I envy not entering the Secretariat at dawn, nor ascending the Terrace at d...

Chapter 111: A Return Gift for His Majesty Mu Yunyao, however, nodded firmly. “In truth, I have long had an idea in my heart. I simply never dared to hope for it. Now that such heaven-sent fortune has fallen upon my head, perhaps my dream may finally come true.” Hearing her say this, Madam Jin felt even more that she was treating the matter like child’s play. “Tell me first.” If it was inappropriate, she could still persuade Mu Yunyao to change it. “I wish to request a piece of calligraphy from His Majesty. I would ask him to write the three characters Niyun Pavilion. Then, once I rebuild the embroidery pavilion, I will have it made into a signboard and hang it above the entrance. In the future, I imagine no petty villain would dare lay a hand on Niyun Pavilion again.” When Madam Jin heard this, she could not help nodding again and again. “I was afraid that in your haste, you would not think of anything suitable. I did not expect you to have considered it even more thoroughly than I. I...

Chapter 110:  Even Heaven Lends Her Aid After hearing Mu Yunyao’s words, some of the people below fell into thought, while others still did not understand at all. Mu Yunyao did not hurry them or press them. She merely instructed them to practice more whenever they had time. Afterward, she and Steward Qin went to the flower hall in the front courtyard. Steward Qin quickly ordered people to bring over bird’s nest, ginseng, and other medicinal ingredients for nourishing the body. After thanking him, Mu Yunyao had Jin Lan and Jin Qiao put everything away one by one. “I came today not only to welcome Wei Yi, Yun Chun, and the others back. There is also another matter I wish to discuss with Steward Qin.” “Miss, please speak.” “Niyun Pavilion was destroyed by fire, but because of the merit of teaching the embroidery stitches, it can be rebuilt at any time. As for our tea house, after preparing for so long, it is also time for it to open.” “Miss is right. May I ask whether Miss has alrea...

Chapter 109:  The Return of the Fifty Mu Yunyao rested at home and tended her injuries in peace, while the whole of Jingling City boiled with uproar. All the Ding family’s shops were sealed. When many of the common people asked about it, only then did they learn that the great fire at Niyun Pavilion had very likely been set by the Ding family. For a time, the people’s goodwill toward the Ding family vanished completely. One after another, they spread the word that the Ding family ought to be severely punished and that Miss Mu must be given an explanation. The Ding family members were arrested and thrown into prison. After only a brief interrogation, they confessed that they had acted under the orders of the Jingling Assistant Prefect and the Xuanfu envoy. Only then had wickedness risen from their courage, leading them to set fire to Niyun Pavilion. The moment these words came out, the whole city was in an uproar. The Jingling Assistant Prefect and the Xuanfu envoy had both maintain...

Chapter 108: Madam Jin Pays a Visit That night, Governor Zhang and the officials of Jingling City nearly worried their hair white. They mobilized every person they could command to investigate the cause of the fire at Niyun Pavilion. At the time, so many common people were present. Everyone had seen the heavy bronze lock on Niyun Pavilion’s main door. Now, the discussion had already spread everywhere. They all said that someone had deliberately tried to kill Mu Yunyao. Setting a fire in the middle of the night was one thing, but locking the main door to prevent anyone from escaping was another. More than half the people of Jingling City had benefited from learning the embroidery stitches. At such a time, if the matter were not investigated clearly as soon as possible, the common people alone would not agree to let it rest. Early the next morning, Madam Jin hurried to Mu Yunyao’s home. Su Qing had just finished cooking eight-treasure rice for Mu Yunyao. Seeing Madam Jin, she quickly put...
