Chapter 150

Robbed Again?

After solving a big concern, Mu Yunyao spent half a bowl when she ate dumplings . It made Su Qing smile . As she helped her fill the bowl, she was afraid that Mu Yunyao would hold on, "If you still want to eat more, Mother will make more in two days . Please don't hold on long enough …"

After Su Qing finished speaking, she felt that something wasn't right and quickly added, "You also need to eat your fill . You seem to have lost a bit of weight these past few days . "

Mu Yunyao blinked and touched her cheek . She turned her head to look at Jin Lan, "Have I become thinner in these two days?" In the past few days, Su Qing had been cooking and nourishing food for her . Even the ginseng sent by Steward Qin had stewed in half . She felt that her cheeks had become a lot rounder . Jin Lan nodded quickly, "Miss, you've indeed lost weight after working so hard every day . " Young Miss was a slender woman . Now that she had been sitting in front of the embroidery rack every day, her wrists and neck were often in so much pain that she couldn't lift them . Especially her wrists and fingers . The fingers should be warmed every night . Otherwise, they will swell up the next day, which makes people feel distressed to look at it .

"Alright . " Knowing that they were worried about her, Mu Yunyao didn't try to differentiate between them . After drinking half a bowl of soup, she returned to her room to continue her embroidery of the New Year's gift .

Time fly’s day by day . Outside of Yuxi City, a caravan finally saw the Yuxi City Gate in the distance after nearly twenty days . Just as they let out a sigh of relief, a loud sound of horse hooves approached, and masked bandits appeared unexpected like last time . After completing snatch things, they hurry up to leave .

When they finally made it to the entrance of Yuxi City, they didn't even have a single copper coin on them .

When the guards who defended the city saw them, their eyes widened . "It's you guys again? What, you guys got robbed again?" The last time his tea leaves stolen, he heard the merchant caravan's owner said that he didn't believe in evil and insisted on transporting it for another time . At that time, he thought that he was feeling wronged . He didn't expect that it would really end up like this, they robbed again .

The merchant group's owner sat on the ground and wailed, "We reported to the officials last time . Why hasn't Lord Qingtian captured these bandits yet?" The city guards could not help but feel sympathy for them and went forward to help them up, "Don't give up . That bandits are so bold, and the government is unable to capture them . In the future, you will hire more people to accompany the caravan . It will help you to play some role or don't come to Yuxi City . After doing business, the poor birds here don't lay eggs . Even if you send the tea leaves over, no one can afford to buy it . "

"But my old rival sent tea leaves to Yuxi City, saying that he had made a great profit?"

"You've probably been tricked . Who would still be here to do business these days?"

The merchant caravan's owner cried for a long time . He removed the gold ring on his finger and forced the merchant caravan's men to stay in Yuxi City for the night . The next day, he left with his men . When they left, the soldiers guarding the city shook their heads against their backs, only to feel that these people were unlucky .

Unexpectedly, almost twenty days later, another caravan approached Yuxi City, this time even closer to the city gates . Just as they were about to enter the city, the bandits seemed to have descended from the sky . They swept all the goods in less than a quarter of an hour .

The guards of the city waited until the bandits left before they trembled as they walked out of the city gate . Seeing that someone was crying so loudly in the caravan, they hurriedly stepped forward, "Huh? You guys are not from Wang Family Merchant Group?" He thought that the unlucky fellow who had robbed twice had returned . He didn't expect that the person this time would be a different person .

Hearing that he mentions Wang Family, the people in the caravan cried even louder . "When the Wang Family's caravan returned, they said that they made a large amount of silver in Yuxi City, which is why we followed them here in hopes of opening up a road fora trade route . Who would have known that it would snatched away before even entering the city? Why is the Heavens so unfair to us and so good to Wang Family?!"

The city guard thought for a moment . "You and Wang Family are enemies, right?"

"Yes, our Zhang Family and Wang Family are irreconcilable!"

The soldier sighed, "Ah, no wonder!" Since they are enemies who cannot be separated, then who are you trying to screw over then? However, the bandits of Yuxi City had never been so rampant in the past . Now that the bandits come here to wander around twice in three days, is it an addiction to the robbery?

Mu Yunyao didn't know that outside of Yuxi City, a few thousand miles away, it was especially lively . At this moment, she was accompanying Lady Jin as she measured the embroidery in her hand . "What does Madam think?" After spending nearly three months, this magnificent piece of embroidery was finally going to complete .

Lady Jin looked at the embroidery on the table, so excited that her face turned red, "Yunyao, I really don't know how to describe it . It's great . It's really great!"

The embroidery in front of her was nine feet long and five feet wide . The edges embroidered with a bright yellow embroidery thread, the golden characters on the red ground, the four characters Fu, Shou, An, and Kang, are shining brightly . At first glance, the momentum is thick and majestic, under the clouds of Xiangyun .

Mu Yunyao heaved a heavy sigh of relief . "I felt relieved when I heard Madam say good . I was afraid that my lack of skills would delay the Emperor the New Year's gift . "

"Don't be modest . I dare to say that I can't find a second person in the Dali Dynasty who can match up to you in embroidery techniques!"

"Madam, you are too kind . "

Lady Jin carefully measured the time it took to brew a cup of tea before reluctantly withdrawing her gaze, "Yunyao, you've worked hard these past few days . I've heard that you haven't even celebrated your birthday, you've only been busy with this new year's gift …"

"I'm young, where did I use any birthday? Besides, didn't Madam ask sister Yin Hong to send me a set of headdresses? I have never seen a pure ruby of color . I only look at it, and I can't put it down, I can't bear to wear it on my head . "

October 15 is Mu on Yun Yao's birthday . She hadn't thought of having a birthday in the first place . That day, she only ate a bowl of hand-rolled noodles made by her mother and felt abnormally satisfied . There was nothing that made her feel happier than this bowl of noodles .

Su Qing also nodded when she heard this, "That's right . It's inconvenient for Madam to be in such a condition right now . But she still remembers Yunyao's birthday . It's really spoilt her . " She and Lady Jin seemed to be close friends, so she didn't have many scruples when she spoke .

On the other hand, Lady Jin looked at Mu Yunyao with a face full of smiles . "If I really can spoil her, then I'll find ten sets of eight ruby heads and send them over . Yunyao is really too sensible, causing one's heart to ache . " Her wrist and fingers were slightly red and swollen, especially her fingers that were pinching the embroidery needles . The tip of her fingers was red and had a layer of callus on them, which made people's heartache even more when compared to the fingers of her left hand . "In the following days, you have a good rest, and don't leave any hidden dangers behind . "

Mu Yunyao smiled and nodded . "Don't worry, Madam, everything will be fine in two days . " The wounds on her body healed so quickly . Not to mention the high-quality ointment she applied every day . After a few days, her body would return to normal . Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to go all out like this . She was extremely protective of her own body in her past life .
