Chapter 234
Preparation Before Returning To The Su Family’s Residence
Mu Yunyao smiled slightly and kept her needlework before leaning back on the soft couch and letting Jin Lan ma.s.sage her arm . “The clothes sold in Ni Yun Fang are already so expensive, and Niyun Beauty booklet is even more expensive . The beauty booklet is the face of Ni Yun Fang . If you don’t put on some good face now, it won’t be long before you destroy the brand of Ni Yun Fang . ”
“It’s this servant who thought wrong . ”
Mu Yunyao looked at the various embroidery threads around her, her expression extremely calm . “Jin Lan, what day is it today?”
“It’s almost the beginning of July …” Mu Yunyao’s vision gradually emptied . She remembers very clearly that on July 2nd in her previous life, her grandmother Li forced her to mow the gra.s.s in the mountain, and in the end, she was chased and killed in the mountains . After hunting her down, she rolled down and ran into a gorgeous carriage, then pa.s.sed out .
When she woke up, she had sent back to the Li family’s residence, and immediately following that, the Su family sent someone to pick her up on July 15th . She later heard by chance that the people who had enmity with the Su family found out about her relationship with the Su family and intentionally sent people to kill her .
But now, she and her mother had come to Jingling City, and there are also two industries: Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Lou . They had rewarded by the Emperor many times, and their reputation also has spread widely . She didn’t know if the Su family has found out the ident.i.ty of her and her mother . Then, would their so-called enemies send people to a.s.sa.s.sinate them?
Su Qing had already returned from the New Ni Yun Fang . Mu Yunyao stood up to welcome her mother, “Mother, you’ve returned . Are you tired today?”
“With so many people helping me, I only need to move my mouth . What’s so tiring?” Su Qing looked at Mu Yunyao’s smiling face, and her heart relaxed . She then pulled her aside and sat down .
Jin Lan and Jin Qiao went down and hurriedly ordered people to prepare food .
Mu Yunyao leaned against Su Qing and sat quietly, but her heart was very restless . “Mother, are you thinking about the Su family as well?”
“Yeah, the days are getting closer and closer, and my heart is getting more and more anxious . Now that our mother and daughter live in a comfortable life, it would be great if we didn’t return to the Su family’s residence . ” Su Qing sighed .
“There are some things that we can’t avoid, not to mention our ident.i.ty is there . Sooner or later, the Su family will definitely discover us . ”
Su Qing couldn’t help but sigh, “Since we can’t avoid it, we’ll deal with it properly . However, I can’t understand why he Su family persecuted you like that in your previous life . ”
Mu Yunyao’s eyelashes trembled slightly: “This is also what I can’t understand . In my previous life, I was helpless . According to the Su family’s way of doing things, they should know how to use me to win a good reputation and won’t begrudge me for a decent dowry . However, the Su family has embarra.s.sed me many times, and they have secretly trying to kill me many times . Now to think of it, there’s something very unusual about it . ”
“This is indeed a puzzling place . Logically speaking, you are the granddaughter of the Old Madam of the Su family, and you have suffered many years of living outside . At that time, you were physically disabled, so there was no hindrance in the Su family . They just gave you an extra mouthful of food . Why are their hearts so vicious?”
Mu Yunyao’s expression sank a little bit, feeling Su Qing trembling with anger, and she couldn’t help holding her hand: “Mother, don’t worry too much . You can always find things out bit by bit . The Su family doesn’t treat us like family, so we don’t need to worry about blood ties . ”
Su Qing held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand tightly, and her heart was drenched in a cold sweat, “Yao’er, don’t worry . I naturally understand what you mean . After experiencing your grandmother’s matter, Mother also understood a lot . Good people will always get bullied . We won’t take the initiative to harm others, but if other people harm us, we must retaliate without holding back . ”
She knew that Old Madam Su was her mother, but it was impossible for her to harm her own daughter for a person she had never seen before . It didn’t matter if they said that she was selfish and unfilial or that she was heartless and ruthless . She would rather bear all the evil reputation and wish for her own daughter would be safe .
Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but smile . With her mother’s unconditional support, it made her feel as if her heart had soaked in warm water . Her entire body felt comfortable as she lazily said, “Didn’t Mother always teach me to be good to others? Why is it that the words spoken today are even more unyielding?”
“Foolish child, mother wants you to be kind to others because good people will always get favored by heaven, but Mother also doesn’t want you to get bullied . Now that I’ve interacted with so many ladies in Ni Yun Fang and seen their dirty families, big or small . If I still don’t understand, Mother is really foolish . ”
“Mother, don’t worry . I will definitely protect you from the Su family’s bullying . ”
“Alright, Mother naturally believes in Yao’er . ” Su Qing couldn’t help but touching Mu Yunyao’s hair with emotion in her heart, “Yao’er, don’t worry too much . These days, I can see that you’ve been worrying all day . So you must be thinking about the Su family’s matters . There’s always a way to deal with them, no matter how difficult it is . ”
“Alright . ” Mu Yunyao nodded and finally felt a bit more relaxed in her heart . “Mother, I plan to find someone to teach Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the others properly about the rule . In Capital, even these servants represent their Master’s face . If they don’t know how to behave or can’t be polite, it’s not good for them and us . ”
Moreover, she wanted to put a trustworthy mama (old maid) beside Su Qing . Recently, Liu Liang asked a lot about her . She had chosen one, who was released from the palace before, so the way to deal with the backyard should not be a problem .
“Okay, merely make the arrangements . Also, we need to start arranging transactions at Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo as well . If the Su family come over in advance, and we don’t make the arrangements well, there might be a lot of trouble . ”
After chatting with Su Qing, Mu Yunyao began to prepare for the next time . The rules for JinLan, Jin Qiao, and the others are easy to learn . They only needed to ask that mama for a few things . Fortunately, Mu Yunyao was able to grasp her thoughts and directly signed a contract .
Ni Yun Fang has gone very steadily at every step . Now, there were a few more shops in other cities, and they also had their own shopkeepers to control them . Besides, there is Liu Liang, who helped to arrange things, so it wasn’t a big deal . It’s Bu Xian Luo, which makes Mu Yunyao feel a little headache .
She had already made up her mind that she would not get involved with Bu Xian Luo any longer . However, after Yue w.a.n.g had left, Steward Qin only pretended to be confused and came to consult as usual whenever he encountered a problem . Moreover, the other party had a good relationship with her mother, so every time she didn’t want to bother with it, her mother would come over and tell her to continue to help .
On this day, Mu Yunyao was in the midst of arranging the clothes for Ni Yun Fang would make next when Jin Lan, who was at the door, came in and reported, “Miss, Shopkeeper Qin has arrived . ”
“Send him in . ”
Steward Qin was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead . After entering the door, he bowed respectfully to Mu Yunyao and said, “Greetings, Miss Mu . I have an urgent matter to report to Miss Mu . ”
Mu Yunyao’s heart stirred, and she waved her hand to allow Jin Lan and Jin Qiao to withdraw . “Please speak, Steward Qin . ”
Steward Qin took out a letter from his sleeve, “Please have a look, Miss . ”
Mu Yunyao opened the letter . After she finished reading it, she couldn’t help but frown .
