Chapter 238

The Kind Lady Zhou

“Then, I would like to drink two more cups of tea today . ” Lady Zhou looked at Mu Yunyao and couldn’t help but secretly praise her in her heart . Even though she had precautionary in her heart, she still felt comfortable looking at Mu Yunyao .

“Madam, please take a seat . ” Mu Yunyao led Lady Zhou to sit down and then personally made tea .

While appreciating her tea making, Lady Zhou casually said, “I’ve heard that Miss Mu will be leaving Jingling City and returning to the Su family’s residence in the Capital in a few days . That’s why I’m here to pay a visit . ”

“I also didn’t expect that my mother’s background would be so rough . ” Mu Yunyao’s brewing movements were as graceful and smooth as before . However, a trace of unease and apprehension couldn’t help but flash through her eyes as she spoke, causing Madame Zhou to keenly caught it .

“This is a good thing . The Su family in the Capital is very famous . I don’t know how many people want to get into a relationship but can’t!”

Mu Yunyao let out a soft sigh . “Even so, my mother and I grew up in the mountains and the countryside . I’m afraid that we might have our fortune is too low …”

“The first thing I saw when I saw you was that you would definitely be extraordinary in the future . With your skills and bearing alone, even in the Capital, you would stand outstandingly compared to those noble ladies, so there was no need to worry too much .

Mu Yunyao buckled the teacup and lightly placed it in front of Lady Zhou . “I grew up in the countryside since I was young, and I only know a few words from my father . How could I dare to be on par with those noble ladies in the Capital? “Madam, please don’t comfort me . ”

“I’m not comforting you, but I’m telling you the truth . You don’t have to belittle yourself . Right now, the Su family is like the sun in the sky, the Old Madam of the Su family enjoys a second life, and your uncle, Su Shangshu, is also extremely favored by the Emperor . The eldest son of the Su family, Su Qingwu, who came to you personally last time . He was hired as a first-class guard by the Emperor at a young age . With such a prominent family, your fortune will be unlimited in the future . ”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes held a hint of longing that just so happened to be there . “Right now, only I and my mother are dependent on each other . It would be great if I could have a few more family members …”

Lady Zhou smiled and took a sip from her teacup . Her eyes immediately lit up . “This tea is really not bad . After drinking it, I actually feel my entire body is refreshed and comfortable . Before you leave, you must sell me some . ”

“If Madam likes it, I’ll have it wrapped up and immediately send someone to deliver it to your residence . ”

“That’s good . ” Lady Zhou drank two cups of tea and said many things about the Su family . one after another . After a while, she took out a post from her hand . “Miss Mu and I are very close to each other . I heard that the girl is going to leave, and I am very reluctant to give up . I came here to send some gifts . ”

“How can that be?” Mu Yunyao hurriedly refused .

“This is my kind intentions . Please do not decline . ” Lady Zhou directly sent the post to Mu Yunyao .

“ . . . In that case, I shall thank Madam . ”

Seeing Mu Yunyao accept it, the smile on Lady Zhou’s face became a bit more genuine . “Have you decided when you’ll go to the Capital?”

“We still need to settle down Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo . I’m afraid they will take a few more days . ”

“That was reasonable . These two properties were flourishing day by day, and there was also the golden signboard gifted down by the Emperor . It’s a pity to abandon them at will . You don’t need to worry, Miss Mu . These two places are Jingling City’s face, and Lord Li already said that he would take good care of them . Even if you and Madam Su leave, we will definitely also take good care of them . ”

“Hearing this, Mu Yunyao only felt that Lady Zhou was trying to make a poor decision and hurried over . It turns out that she was planning this . Her heart was on guard, but her expression didn’t show the slightest hint of emotion, “Lord Li is the salt transport envoy of Jingling City and also the son of Prime Minister Li, and you as his wife is also very noble from birth . With the care of you two, Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo can be considered safe . Thank you, Lord Li and Madam . ”

Lady Zhou smiled . “There’s no need to be so courteous . You’re the one that makes me like it when I see you . ”

After chatting for nearly half an hour, Lady Zhou stood up and left . Mu Yunyao escorted people out of Jin Xiu Garden, and after Lady Zhou boarded the carriage, she turned around to head back home . When Mu Yunyao returned home, she lightly turned her head to look at Bu Xian Luo . Mu Yunyao thought that Wen Mama had seen Lady Zhou’s arrival in her eyes . But she didn’t know how to arrange it in her heart?

Jin Lan and Jin Qiao quietly followed behind Mu Yunyao . After returning to their room, they took out the post placed at the side . “Miss, quite a few posts have been sent over . These are sent by the ladies who normally have dealings with Ni Yun Fang . ”

Mu Yunyao took the post and looked at it . After laughing for a while, she casually threw it onto the table . “These ladies are well informed . ”

“Miss, you don’t know, the news about Madam and you being members of the Su family has already spread throughout the entire Jingling City . ”

“Let’s pass it . There is nothing shameful about it anyway . ” I merely don’t know how Wen Mama will report to the Old Madam after she returns .

Jin Lan brought out a cup of tea . “Miss, your servant heard some of Lady Zhou’s words and felt a bit confused . Some of them seemed to have understood that she was trying to take care of Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo . You said that after we leave Jingling City, these two properties should not be embezzled by them, right?”

by them, right?”

“I am afraid that she would not be able to do so . Not to mention Li Munian, even his father, Li Qingzhou, did not dare to swallow up the entire Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo without permission . First, both of these properties are well-known by the Emperor, and they won’t be stupid enough to find unhappiness for themselves . Second, these two properties seem to earn money every day . But for the Li family, they are just like a drop in the bucket . They can’t help but cause trouble . Third, right now, we have a relationship with the Su family, and the Li family and the Su family have never been on good terms with each other . They know the seriousness of the situation better than us . ”

Jin Lan blinked and thought for a while . She still didn’t understand . “This slave doesn’t understand even more . If that Lady Zhou didn’t want to help Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo, why did she say she would take care of them for Miss?”

Mu Yunyao raised her teacup and took a sip: “Why else would she intentionally say such words to the Su Family? Previously, I gave the New Year’s gift to the Emperor, but it struck the Su family’s sore spot . They didn’t know about my relationship with the Su family before, but now that they know that I’m from the Su family, it’s only natural to add to the fire . ”

Jin Lan was a little bit stunned: “Wen Mama and the others are living upstairs in Bu Xian Luo, so they should be able to see that Miss entertaining Lady Zhou . Considering how unhappy she was before, Wen Mama’s impression of Miss would definitely be much worse than before . The Li family and the Su family is the opposite . The better Lady Zhou treats Miss, the more unhappy the Su family will be . But in this way, it will inevitably involve Miss and become a pawn in their game . ”
