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 156: A Careful Explanation for Su Qing Only then did everyone return to their senses. They echoed one another in praise, while their eyes strayed more than once toward Mu Yunyao. None of them knew how her mind worked. Even clothing, in her hands, could be transformed into so many clever designs—and the crucial point was that every design stirred the heart, making them wish they could have such a set for themselves. This was especially true for the madams. Their gazes seemed almost unable to part from the two outfits. At their age and status, many things could no longer be spoken aloud too directly. Yet to use clothing to quietly suggest the affection between husband and wife—subtle, veiled, and graceful—made them yearn for it all the more. Originally, everyone had thought that Mu Yunyao was the one benefiting from this god-kinship. Now, however, it was difficult to say who had truly gained the greater advantage. When the banquet began, the madams’ manner toward Mu Yunyao an...

Chapter 155: Distributing Porridge “Yunyao pays respects to Governor Zhang and the governor’s wife, and to Lord Cao and Madam Jin.” At this moment, naturally, she would only change her form of address after the formal god-kinship ceremony was completed. Thus, Mu Yunyao still addressed them as Lord Cao and Madam Jin. Cao Yunnian looked her over, approval brightening his eyes. “Yao’er, quickly rise.” Madam Jin also rose and led Su Qing forward to pay respects to Governor Zhang and the governor’s wife. The governor’s wife personally helped Su Qing up, her manner exceedingly gentle. “Madam Su, there is no need for such ceremony. Please take your seat. Today, you are the honored ones. We may speak at leisure another day.” “Yes. Many thanks, Madam.” The rites for recognizing god-kinship were not actually complicated. Yin Hong set out the kneeling cushion, and Mu Yunyao stepped forward to kowtow and offer tea to Cao Yunnian and Madam Jin. Both of them gave her ample face. After accepti...

Chapter 154: A Heart Still in Mourning Cao Yunnian could not help laughing aloud. He reached out, his palm full of tenderness, and gently stroked Madam Jin’s belly. “This is the first child between Madam and me. Naturally, I wish I could hold him in my palms and place him at the very tip of my heart to cherish him… Ah! The child kicked me! Madam, did you feel that? He kicked me!” Cao Yunnian’s eyes widened, wonder spreading across his face as his smile refused to fade. Watching him, Madam Jin felt her heart soften. “That is the child greeting his father. Speaking of which, in a while, I should begin preparing some clothes for the child…” “You must not tire yourself, Madam. I remember that Concubine Zhou is quite skilled with needlework. She has little to occupy her on ordinary days. Why not have her prepare some?” Madam Jin smiled and nodded, though a glimmer of satisfaction passed through her eyes. Since Concubine Wang was gone, Concubine Zhou’s arrogance had grown rather unchecked. T...

Chapter 153: Cao Yunnian’s Stroke of Fortune Mu Yunyao looked toward Su Qing. Seeing her mother give the faintest nod, the last thread of hesitation in her heart slipped away. She rose, took up the untouched cup of tea on the table, walked to Madam Jin, and knelt. Holding the teacup high above her head, she said in a clear voice, “Yunyao pays respects to God Mother. Please accept this tea.” Madam Jin quickly took the cup and drank a mouthful. The smile at the corners of her lips could no longer be restrained. “Good. Yao’er, quickly rise.” As she spoke, she helped Mu Yunyao up with both hands. Then she slipped a pair of jade bangles from her own wrist, removed a gold hairpin from her hair, and carefully placed them on Mu Yunyao. Mu Yunyao accepted them with a bright smile and did not offer any distant words of refusal. Now that this kinship had been acknowledged, there was no need to remain as reserved as before. “Thank you, God Mother.” Madam Jin held her hand affectionately, the delig...

Chapter 152: Madam Jin Takes an Adopted Daughter Madam Jin took the New Year’s tribute away and immediately had Cao Yunnian deliver it to Governor Zhang’s Residence. When Governor Zhang saw the tribute, his face flushed with excitement. He clapped Cao Yunnian on the shoulder and repeatedly ordered people to invite the finest master craftsman. No matter what, this embroidery had to be mounted with the utmost meticulousness. “Brother Cao, rest assured. I will clearly explain the origin of this embroidery. The credit that belongs to you and Madam Jin will certainly not be omitted.” Cao Yunnian said nothing, yet there was a lightness in his step when he returned to his residence. Supporting Madam Jin as they strolled through the garden, he told her all that had happened that day. Previously, Concubine Wang’s provocation had indeed stirred a knot of displeasure in his heart. But one fit of anger from him had made Madam Jin grieve for several days, even to the point of saying she would sever...

Chapter 151: The Three Winter Months When One Cannot Wake After Madam Jin left with the New Year’s tribute, Mu Yunyao felt as though a burden had slipped from her shoulders. After supper, she went to bed early and slept until the sun was high the next morning, yet still refused to rise from beneath the covers. Su Qing came in carrying a bowl of eight-treasure rice. Seeing her daughter curled into the quilt, she could not help stepping forward and pinching her cheek. “What hour is it already, and you still will not get up? Nan’er and A’Mao have swept the courtyard once over.” Mu Yunyao kept her eyes closed, feigning sleep, but the corners of her lips betrayed her, curving upward. Su Qing pinched her cheek again. “You wicked girl. Last night you were clamoring for eight-treasure rice, and I brought it over as soon as it was done. Hurry and stop pretending. Wash up and eat, or I shall take it out and give it to Nan’er and A’Mao.” Mu Yunyao immediately opened her eyes and threw herself int...

Chapter 150: Robbed Again? With a matter that had weighed upon her heart resolved, Mu Yunyao ate an extra half bowl of rice-flour dumplings. Su Qing was delighted, her brows blooming with smiles as she ladled more soup for her daughter, yet she was also afraid Mu Yunyao might overeat. “If you still want more, Mother can make them again in a few days. You must not stuff yourself…” No sooner had she spoken than she felt the words were not quite right, and quickly added, “But you must eat enough as well. These past two days, you look thinner again.” Mu Yunyao blinked, lifted a hand to touch her cheek, then turned to Jin Lan. “Have I grown thinner these past two days?” During this time, Su Qing had been changing dishes every day to nourish her. Even half of the ginseng Steward Qin had sent had been stewed into soup. Mu Yunyao felt her cheeks had rounded out quite a bit. Jin Lan hurriedly nodded. “Miss has been working so hard every day. Of course you have grown thinner.” Miss was slend...
