Chapter 255
Stay In Jiyue Pavilion
After talking for a while longer, Old Madam Sun looked tired .
The Eldest Madam said thoughtfully, “Today is a hard day . Sister Su Qing and Yao’er must be tired . If you don’t mind, why don’t we go back early and rest? We will come again tomorrow to pay our respects to the Old Madam . ”
Su Qing bowed to the Old Madam, “Mother looks tired, so your daughter won’t disturb you any longer . ”
The Old Madam nodded . She was smiling, but her eyes were calm . “Yes . ”
After everyone had left, the Old Madam called Wen Mama over . “How do you think about them when you pick up Su Qing and her daughter?”
Wen Mama looked at the Old Madam’s cold expression, her heart slightly moving . “Madam Su is your biological daughter, and she naturally would be so good . ”
The Old Madam chuckled softly . “Since when have you been so secretive in front of me? This good . . . , how good is it?”
Wen Mama became more and more confused about what she meant, so she could only consider her word and say: “Madam is gentle and kind, and her temperament is very peaceful . Miss Mu is meticulous, and she has a decisive mind when she does things . If you let the maid choose, you really can’t pick out anything bad . ”
“Decisive?” The Old Madam slowly raised her eyelids, “A girl in the family, doesn’t he have to get married and have children in the future . Right now, she is running a clothes shop or teahouse . That isn’t my Su family’s style in making a public appearance . ”
Wen Mama’s heart trembled, and she lowered her head, too afraid to speak .
The Old Madam paused for a moment before asking again, “Are there any servants around them?”
“Madam and Miss Mu brought quite a few people with them, so only Zhou Mama, Ying Xue, and Jian Chun are left . ”
The Old Madam frowned, “They must have a lot of unaccustomedness when they first came to the Capital, so send Mo Yu to them . ”
“Yes, Madam . ” Wen Mama quickly replied, but she couldn’t help but mutter in her heart . Mo Yu is the eldest girl by the Old Madam’s side, and she’s always very attentive in her daily service, so Wen Mama doesn’t know the purpose of this move .
After exiting the Old Madam’s courtyard, Su Qing and Mu Yunyao followed Zhou Mama to the Jiyue Pavilion . Along the way, the maids and manservants all held their breath, then retreated to the side to pay their respects .
Su Qing and Mu Yunyao walked straight over, followed by Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and Si Qin, all of whom were well-mannered and courteous, without any disrespect .
After they left, people couldn’t help but start whispering to each other .
“It’s not that Madam and Miss Biao have been living outside for many years, and they also grew up in the countryside . No matter how you look at them, their bearing is extremely n.o.ble . ”
“The Masters are naturally extraordinary, especially that Miss Biao, who has an exceedingly attractive appearance . Her face is so fair and tender that she seems to shine . Looking at her looks that can crush a person’s surface, it really makes one envious …”
Jiyue Pavilion was remarkably magnificent, with all sorts of flowers and arranged in an orderly manner . There was a watery rock garden, a lotus pond in the corner pavilion and connected by the Jiuqu corridor bridge . Each step was very captivating .
The main house imitates the Jiangnan architectural style, which has two floors, a small attic, and wing-shaped eaves on the side . Amongst the stable and grand buildings, it was exceptionally unique and exquisite .
Mu Yunyao came here with Su Qing . With a slight smile on her face, she asked, “Did Mother feel any familiarity when she looked at Jiyue Pavilion?”
Su Qing looked around the room and couldn’t help but smile . “It’s very similar to the buildings in Jingling City . ”
“That’s right . It must be very comfortable to live here . ”
Zhou Mama said with a smile: “It’s good that Madam and Young Miss like it . This place was originally a place where the young misses played and entertained their guests . All the items were complete, and the arrangement was very exquisite . If you have anything you want to change, feel free to tell me . This servant will report it to the Eldest Madam so she can send people to arrange it . ”
Mu Yunyao blinked, “Zhou Mama, Can I change the things here? You also know that I brought quite a few things from Jiangnan, and a lot of them are already used to using them . If they can be changed, I will change some of them . ”
“Of course, it is possible . The Eldest Madam has instructed us to leave everything to Madam and Young Miss’s arrangements . ”
Mu Yunyao has a bright smile on her face . “That’s good . Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, you guys can go and arrange it . ”
Soon after, Mu Yunyao’s things brought in, causing Jin Lan and Jin Qiao to become busy .
When the Eldest Madam returned to Qiushi Garden, she asked someone to look for Liu Mama . When she heard that Liu Mama had broken a leg, her brows twitched, and her expression darkened .
Liu Mama was helped in by someone and walked in . Seeing the Eldest Madam, she immediately kneeled down, grimacing in pain . “This servant didn’t do my job properly . Please punish me, Madam . ”
The Eldest Madam’s expression was cold as her gaze swept across her legs and her voice asked faintly, “What’s going on? Did she hurt your leg when you went to pick her up?”
“This servant accidentally fell down the stairs . I was unlucky and ended up breaking my leg . ” Liu Mama felt her chest blocked in panic . When she fell and got injured, many people saw that Mu Yunyao and Su Qing were also in their room, and it was so far away from her so she couldn’t find any other excuses .
The Eldest Madam raised her eyes . “How could you be so careless? Are you using medicine?”
“This . . . , there are all kinds of medicinal materials on the boat, and I have used them . ”
“Mmm, it’s not easy to make a difficult trip anyway . You’ll go down to collect ten taels of silver and rest properly . You’ll come back to serve me after you’ve rested . ”
Liu Mama didn’t expect herself would get rewarded, and she froze on the spot . When she came back to her senses, she hurriedly expressed her grat.i.tude . Her face filled with joy and grat.i.tude . “Thank you, Madam! Thank you, Madam!”
“Let’s go down and have a rest . ”
After Liu Mama left, Su Yuyi took the teacup and walked to the Eldest Madam’s side, “In order to welcome Auntie and Cousin Yunyao back, Mother has been very tired these days . Daughter personally brewed some tranquil tea and asked Mother to have a taste . ”
Looking at Su Yuyi’s devastatingly beautiful face, the Eldest Madam caressed the ta.s.sels in her ear and said, “It’s still my daughter who knows how to love her mother . Unlike your big brother, it’s been so long since we’ve seen each other . ”
“Big Brother was ordered by the Emperor to follow the Third Prince to the front lines to reward the three armies . Big Brother is someone who has done great things and wants to help the Emperor share his burdens . That’s why the Emperor allowed his mother to have a daughter like me stay with you as a present to honor you . ” Su Yuyi smiled, and the smile was like a flower . Even the surrounding atmosphere seemed to be brightened by her .
The Eldest Madam pressed the stick in her heart, and the smile on her face couldn’t stop, “If it were not for you and your brother, why would Mother work so hard for so many years?”
Su Yuyi walked up to the Eldest Madam and gently held her shoulders, “Mother’s hard work, Daughter completely see in the eyes . In the future, I will definitely fight for Mother!”
The Eldest Madam was satisfied, “There was news that was released that the Grand Princess may return to the Palace during this Mid-Autumn Festival . You should know that every time the Grand Princess returns to the Palace, the Emperor will overjoy, and he will definitely hold the big banquet . You always keep in mind the news that came out a few days ago . You can’t make any mistakes at the banquet . ”
“Don’t worry, Mother . As long as that information is true, your daughter will definitely live up to your expectations . ”
The Eldest Madam looked down at Su Yuyi’s face, and her smile became even more genuine, “If my daughter’s beauty and talents do not enter the Grand Princess’s eyes, then no one else will have a chance . ”
