Chapter 77
Three days later, Su Qing felt as if her mind had stopped working . She finally placed a book down dejectedly . “I really can’t think of anything . ”
Just then, she happened to glance at an open book which had been laying on the ground . She saw the word ‘Ni’ . This word was not bad, Ni……Yun . “Yao Er, what do you think about Niyun Shop?”
(T/N: I understand that in Novelupdate’s summary for this story, I had translated Mu Yunyao’s shop to ‘Cloud Shop’ . I’m not sure why I did that . ‘Ni aka 霓’ means secondary rainbow . ‘Yun aka 云’ means cloud . I think I got lazy then and just shortened it to Cloud Shop……
Anyways . I will be calling Mu Yunyao’s embroidery shop ‘Niyun Shop’ . I’m not separating the ‘Ni’ and ‘Yun’ because frankly speaking, I think ‘Niyun’ looks prettier…heh heh . Sorry . )
Mu Yunyao did her last thread and raised her head . “Niyun Shop . A Rainbow for clothes, Wind for horses, the Cloud Immortals come down one after the other . Niyun Shop, that sounds amazing . Mother is so knowledgable!”
(T/N: Okay so Mu Yunyao quoted Li Bai’s poem ‘梦游天姥吟留别’ aka ‘A Departing Song of Travelling to Tianmu in a Dream’ . Li Bai is a genius poet who is usually drunk when making poems .
Quoting Kaiser Kuo, a founder of China’s first heavy-metal band: “He was quite a drunkard…and writing some of his best poetry apparently, while completely inebriated . You know, he’s wild and a.s.sociated with a kind of unbridled revelry…” . So go search him up . He’s a pretty wild dude . And also search Du Fu up . Two of the greatest poets of history . Always being compared to each other .
I had had enough of translating poem words cuz like I said I suck so I went to search up a translation of this poem . Credits to East Asia Student for saving me from a headache . )
As she finished speaking, she immediately went to the table and wrote out the words ‘Niyun Shop’ on a piece of paper in a vigorous and lively manner .
Mu Yunyao was talented in copying other people’s handwriting . In her past life, when she had been forced into Yue w.a.n.g’s residence against her will, she saw some writing in a room . The handwriting was as sharp as a knife, it was if you could hear the bones and muscles clanging together . Just one look could make a person feel as if they were in a war, where the horses were galloping and the weapons were clashing with each other .
When thinking that she was about to write out the plaque, Mu Yunyao somehow felt that this handwriting was the best . When she finished, she carefully looked at it . She felt extremely satisfied .
Mu Yunyao was like a sword now, she will be the sword that will slice the throats of the Su Family and Jin w.a.n.g . This kind of handwriting was the most suitable for her!
“Mother, quick, take a look, what do you think?”
“Although Mother can read, I don’t really know calligraphy all that well . If you think it is good, then it is . ” Although Su Qing said this, in reality, her heart had skipped a beat . No matter how she looked at it, this handwriting was truly frightening . Won’t it scare off all the customers?”
Mu Yunyao was very happy . She quickly got Liu Liang to send the paper off to get made into a plaque .
