Chapter 101 - Su Qing was Injured

After Mu Yunyao returned to Niyunfang, he saw that Su Qing was fidgeting uneasily .

"What happened, Mother?"

"Yao`er, you've come . There's something Mother wants to discuss with you . Let's go upstairs and talk privately . "

Mu Yunyao signaled Jinlan and Jinqiao with her eyes before following Su Qing went upstairs, "Mother, what do you think of Si Qin and the others?"

Su Qing frowned, "What I want to talk to you is about the four of them . Your mother is just one person, why would she need so many servants . Furthermore, I feel that they are not like ordinary maids . "I don't know from whom Liu Liang bought them . . . "

"Mother, all four of them signed the death contract . With the indenture in my hand, I'm not afraid of them not serving us wholeheartedly . Who cares who they are?"

"That's not what I mean, but I just feel that the four of them have an extraordinary bearing, which makes me feel extremely uncomfortable . " Su Qing couldn't explain her feelings . She could only feel that she was short of breath in front of the four of them .

Mu Yunyao pulled Su Qing to sit on a chair, gently massaging her shoulder . "Mother, I already can make you live a better life, so I naturally have to find a few more people to serve you so that you can enjoy your blessings . These are all due to your daughter's filial piety . You can't refuse it!"

"Yao`er . . . "

"Moreover, the four of them aren't simple maids . I've told Mother before that I'm afraid that Xuan Fu [Xuan manor] might cause trouble for us . These four persons know some martial arts and can protect Mother's safety . "

"Then …" Su Qing hesitated for a moment before she nodded, "Alright then … …"

Mu Yunyao couldn't help but think that from now on, she must let Su Qing exercise a lot . Otherwise, when she came to the Su Family, just the words they said would make her want to cry every day .

For the next few days, Niyunfang was very quiet, but the whole of the Jingling City fell into an inexplicable frenzy . All kinds of embroidery products suddenly increased . Although the appearance is different, the stitches and patterns extremely unique . Many merchants who came to Jingling City felt amazed .

Many merchants noticed the difference and publicly bought the embroidery, whether it was silk handkerchief, clothing, and accessories . As long as the embroidery items matched up, they all have a relatively reasonable price . For a moment, it was unknown how many people had smiles on their faces as they felt deeply grateful towards Niyunfang .

Mu Yunyao has become more and more low-key . If not necessary, she will not step out of Niyunfang .

About eight or nine days later, Madame Jin invited her to the Cao family's manor . "I heard that you hadn't left your house for a long time . Are you preparing a new beauty book?"

"Madam, you've hit the nail on the head . This time, the booklet is not easy to prepare . Many of the madams have secretly delivered their message to me . I've chosen who will not be selected, so I'm afraid that I might offend someone . " Mu Yunyao was always blunt in front of Lady Jin, so she didn't try to hide anything from her .

"I don't care about anyone else . There must be a page of mine on the booklet . " As Lady Jin spoke, she gently stroked her belly . Her wish for so many years had finally come true . Even in her dreams, she felt absent-minded, afraid that it would be a delusion upon waking up .

"Then it seems that I must release the book as soon as possible . Otherwise, after two more months, Madam won't be able to wear my clothes anymore . " Mrs . Jin smiled happily . Right now, what she cares the most about is the child in her womb . She didn't even care about teaching the embroidery needle technique anymore, making many people think that she wasn't greedy and didn't hold power . Instead, her unintentional actions had an unexpected effect, "Don't tease me . Today, I have come here because there is a good thing to tell you . "

Mu Yunyao has a little doubt:" I don't know what it is? "

"You've always been smart . Guess what, if you guessed right . I'll give you two plates of the latest snacks from the kitchen . "

"Madam is becoming more and more stingy, to only give away two plates of snacks . " Mu Yunyao's tone carried a trace of anger, but her smile was exceptionally brilliant and pure, causing people to be unable to refrain from curled their lips . "Could there be any reward falling from the sky . "

Lady Jin couldn't help but laugh . "It's just that a reward fell from the sky!" After saying that, she pointed upwards, purposely emphasizing the word 'heaven’!

Mu Yunyao was stunned, then she abruptly stood up and almost knocked over the teacup beside her . "Madam, could it be that the Emperor gave her a reward?"

"I originally thought that you were a calm person, but I never expected you to be so excited . " Lady Jin glanced at her with a smile . She couldn't help but think to herself that in the end, she was still too young . Upon hearing the Emperor's reward, she was so happy that she couldn't control herself . The merit should have arrived in these two days . "

The smile on Mu Yunyao's face did not stop, and there was even a hint of excitement, "Then what do I need to prepare? Isn't the Emperor's reward supposed to be given up?" After saying that, her expression suddenly became awkward .

Lady Jin couldn't help but be curious . "What's wrong? Did you think of something?"

Mu Yunyao sat down and spoke in a low voice, "Madam, I have something I don't understand . If the Emperor were to reward me with silver taels, would I have to spend it or give it as a gift?" Seeing how she was such a good money-grubber, Lady Jin laughed even more happily . "Haha, you said that you were smart, that no one could compare to you, but you were also just a pack of silly . Naturally, silver was something that could spend . Even if he gave them something else, there was no need to give it all up .

Pick one or two pieces of ornaments and give them up .

Mu Yunyao's face couldn't help but turn red . Speaking of this, she didn't understand it too well . She only knew that every time the Su Family received the Emperor's reward, they had to offer it to the ancestral hall .

Lady Jin was extremely pleased . When it was time for dinner, she refused to let Mu Yunyao return . She makes her stay in the Cao family for dinner . They chatted for two hours . Then, she finally asked Yin Hong to send her back to Niyunfang .

Mu Yunyao had just gotten off the carriage when she saw Si Qin hurrying over, "Miss, the Madam isn't feeling well . Please, go upstairs and take a look . "

Mu Yunyao's face suddenly paled when she heard this . She didn't have time to ask Si Qin what the situation was, so she lifted her skirt and ran upstairs .

Si Qin was shocked by her reaction and quickly caught up .

Mu Yunyao's heart thumped like a drum, cold sweat forming on her back as she ran to the third floor . She bit her lip and pushed open the door . "Mother, how are you . . . "

Su Qing was sitting on the edge of the bed with a frown . She was shocked when she saw Mu Yunyao's appearance . What's wrong? Why is your face so ugly? "

After saying that, she stood up . Si Qi hurriedly reached out to support her, "Madam, you've sprained your ankle . You must be careful . "

Seeing that Su Qing's complexion was only slightly pale, Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief . Her heart that had leaped into her throat gradually returned to its original place . She quickly entered the room and helped her to sit up, "Mother, I heard from Si Qin that you're not feeling well, so I was shocked . "

Su Qing was pained as she used a handkerchief to wipe her sweat, "It's just that when we got back, the carriage was startled and accidentally knocked on it . It wasn't too bad, but you rushed over in a hurry . Your face was terrifyingly pale . "

Si Qin hurriedly entered the room and apologized, "It's all because I didn't explain clearly . It made Little Miss worried, so please punish me . " Mu Yunyao knew that she couldn't have blamed for this matter . It was because she cared too much about her mother that she suddenly misunderstood, "It's none of your business, it's all my fault that I didn't ask clearly . However, However, why does a good horse scare? "
