Chapter 142
Yu Yi Sent the Wrong Letter
“Well, it’s better to be like this . Please ask the man to write the four characters Fu, Shou, An, and Kang . After collecting them, the women will embroider them according to the words and then use the small characters of Fu, Shou, An, and Kang to form large characters . If there are any other deficiencies, I will then lead the female embroiderer of Ni Yun Fang to finish them . Thinking about it, they shouldn’t be able to delay the New Year’s ceremony . ”
“Good, that’s great!” Lady . Jin was delighted, but she didn’t expect that she just came to care about Mu Yunyao, but unexpectedly solved a big deal .
“It’s just that I still need to discuss this matter with others, but now that I think about it, it’s pretty clear that you have to prepare yourself . This matter is far more important than before . This matter can’t handle without you . ”
“Please rest a.s.sured, Madam . I will do my best . After all, I am doing my best to bring honor to Jingling City . I will do my best, no matter what . ”
“Alright, with these words of yours, I am relieved . ” Now that the New Year ceremony ended, Lady Jin’s smile grew wider . When Su Qing led people to bring the dishes over, she was even more impressed .
When Su Qing saw Lady Jin’s gentle att.i.tude, she relaxed her mind and arranged everything more appropriately and carefully . Even her speech became a lot more casual .
After the meal, the two of them sat together and discussing how to raise their children . Su Qing told about some embarra.s.sing events from Mu Yunyao’s childhood, which made Lady Jin unable to stop laughing .
Mu Yunyao felt embarra.s.sed, so she excused herself to hide . Lady Jin and Su Qing were in the middle of their discussion, and after teasing her for a bit, they let her go .
Returning to her room, the smile on Mu Yunyao’s lips couldn’t help but faded slightly .
Seeing her expression, Jin Lan couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, what happened? Weren’t you happy just now?”
“It’s nothing . I only feel sorry for my mother . ” She understood that her mother was doing her best to suppress the uneasiness and nervousness in her heart, forcing her to get along with Lady Jin . She was trying so hard not to make any mistakes because of her .
Because her mother had confirmed that the dream she spoke of was real and knew that they would eventually return to the Su family . She had worked hard to make herself thoughtful and appropriate so that she could better establish her footing in the Capital .
“Heartache for Madam?”
“You wouldn’t understand even if I told you . Go and prepare some things . I’ll cook myself tonight to comfort my mother . ” She wouldn’t stop her mother’s transformation because of her heartache . She would only support her silently from behind and work hard to prevent anyone has the opportunity to look down on her .
“Yes, Miss . ”
Lady Jin stayed for nearly four hours before back to her residence . Before leaving, she even made an appointment with Su Qing to come back as a guest in two days .
When Mu Yunyao walked in and saw Su Qing’s smiling face, she couldn’t help but relax a little . “It seems that Mother and Lady Jin have a good chat . ”
“It’s so rare to see Lady Jin treat someone warmly despite her high status . ” Su Qing sighed with emotion .
“Mother didn’t eat much in the afternoon, and now that you’ve sat with Lady Jin for half a day, I’m sure you’re hungry . I made some food by myself, so Mother, come and have a taste . ”
“Alright . ” Seeing Mu Yunyao command people bring the food over, Su Qing let out a sigh of relief . For Yaoe’r, no matter how difficult it was, she had to work hard to adapt herself to interacting with Lady Jin and learn about the complicated human world . Only in this way could he care for Yao’er properly when they arrived at the Su family .
The mother and daughter finished their meal happily . Seeing that it was late, they chatted for a while before returning to their respective rooms to rest .
The lights in the study room of Yue w.a.n.g’s residence in Western Guangdong lit up in the middle of the night .
Yue w.a.n.g read the letter over and over again, with a strange look on his cold face . He did not expect Mu Yunyao to guess his ident.i.ty, so what was she thinking now?
Eunuch Cheng brought over some hot tea and carefully placed it next to Yue w.a.n.g, “w.a.n.g Ye, you have read this letter many times, but what’s wrong with Old Qin?”
Ten days ago, when he received this letter, w.a.n.g Ye had placed it on the table and took it out from time to time to look at it . Now you can recite it if you want to?
“Nothing . ” Yue w.a.n.g closed the letter, but his heart was not at peace . Seeing that Eunuch Cheng was about to step down, he asked, “Uncle Cheng, will you other ideas because of my different ident.i.ty?”
Eunuch Cheng’s heart skipped a beat . Thinking of Steward Qin’s letter, he guessed that w.a.n.g Ye was unable to calm down because Miss Mu guess his real ident.i.ty . He could not help but said: “This servant has been serving w.a.n.g Ye for many years, whether w.a.n.g Ye is a prince or common people, w.a.n.g Ye is the Master of this servant, how could he have other ideas? w.a.n.g Ye asked like this, what doubts do you have?”
w.a.n.g Ye is so concerned about Miss Mu . It seems that she is in his heart to some extent . Good thing . . . !
Yue w.a.n.g frowned slightly, but he couldn’t really tell why he was worried . When he saw Steward Qin’s letter, he couldn’t help but start thinking wildly .
If Mu Yunyao knew of his ident.i.ty, would she fear him, jealous, or despise and disdain him? Or did she solely ignore him? Regardless of which of these possibilities he was thinking about, all of them left him feeling inexplicably frustrated .
When Eunuch Cheng saw the change expression in his eyes, he was even more sure of his guess . He thought for a moment and then hinted, “w.a.n.g Ye, there’s no need to think overmuch into it . Anyone who cares about you, regardless of your ident.i.ty, will always treat you the same . ”
However, the s.p.a.ce between Yue w.a.n.g’s eyebrows did not stretch . He only nodded his head and continued to process the doc.u.ments on the table .
Eunuch Cheng did not dare to speak further and silently retreated .
In the next few days, Yue w.a.n.g’s expression was still as grave as before and difficult to conceal . Eunuch Cheng’s heartache when he saw it . He could not help but discuss with Yu Heng . “How did that Miss Mu treat w.a.n.g Ye?”
Mu Yunyao and Master?
Yu Heng pondered for a moment before quickly shaking his head . “Master had seen Miss Mu in the study before, but I have never seen it . So I don’t know if it is good or not . ”
Eunuch Cheng glared at Yu Heng, “You’re just like that kid, Yu Yi, who wastes food!”
“Eh? Eunuch Cheng, you called me?” Yu Yi quickly ran in from the entrance and stopped when he saw Eunuch Cheng . He took a breath and said, “It’s getting colder and colder today . It’s really uncomfortable coming back from Jingling City . ”
“Brat, why did you come back?”
“Oh, Steward Qin sent me back to deliver the letter, and instructing me to deliver it to Master personally . ”
“Old Qin’s letter, is there any for me?”
Yu Yi took out two letters and looked at them . He didn’t know whether Steward Qin was in a hurry, but the envelope didn’t mention who the recipient was . He carefully thought back to Stewars Qin’s words and hurriedly shook his head: “Supervisor Qin said that he wanted me to hand the letters to Master personally . He didn’t say that he wanted to give them to you . ”
When Eunuch Cheng saw that there was indeed no mention of a letter for him, he couldn’t help but think that perhaps Old Qin hadn’t written to him this time, so he nodded his head, “w.a.n.g Ye is in the study . Quickly send the letter in . ”
“Yes . ”
Yue w.a.n.g took the two letters and felt the weight of the letters . The creases between his brows became even tighter, and he said to Yu Yi: “Go down and take a good rest for two days . ”
“Yes, Master . Thank you . ”
The two letters were about the same weight, but Yue w.a.n.g still considered them carefully and opened the heavier one, only that it made his forehead twitch .
At this time, in Jingling City, Steward Qin was happily arranging the account books . He suddenly quivered and couldn’t help but mumble, “Counting the days, Yu Yi should have been delivered the letter to Western Guangdong by now . I wonder if Old Cheng has seen the letter I wrote to him . ”
In order to make Old Cheng work hard to match up, he wrote a letter about Miss Mu’s deep feelings for w.a.n.g Ye . Think about it, if Miss Mu doesn’t always care and worry about w.a.n.g Ye, how can she think of a great way to make fried ginger tea to help w.a.n.g Ye spend the cold winter?
They had said that sending goose feathers over a thousand miles and the courtesy is light and affectionate . The distance between Jingling City and Western Guangdong was still quite large . Yet, Miss Mu had managed to stir up so many people to send a cup of ginger tea over . This friendship is probably too important . “I hope that you can bring this golden doll, Miss Mu, back as soon as possible! This way, we can all be at ease . ”
