As Lady Jin spoke, the silver red behind her took out a small box, and respectfully handed it over to Mu Yunyao.
Mu Yunyao opened the box, and there was only a thin piece of paper inside. After she finished looking at the items on the paper, she quickly declined, "Madam, this gift is too valuable, I really can't accept it ..." "Yunyao, what I'm giving you, is something that can be seen on paper, but its value is limited. However, what you've given me is something that many people have pursued for many years, and it has an inestimable value. The present I give you is just a little show of appreciation, not as much as the ten thousand you give us
One, if you still refuse, I'll really get angry."
Mu Yunyao slightly pursed her lips, then smiled in relief, "Then I'll accept it. Thank you, Lady Jin."
A smile immediately appeared on Lady Jin's face."Alright, that's more like it. Alright, knowing that you've been busy lately, I'll leave first. Hurry up and go do what you need to do."
"Yunyao greets Madam."
After Lady Jin left, Su Qing went downstairs."Yao'er, is there something wrong with Lady Jin?"
Ever since Mu Yunyao had announced that she would pass down the embroidery needle techniques to all the girls in the Tombal Mountain City, her heart had never let up. This was a good thing, but it involved too much of a huge issue.
"A congratulatory gift?" Su Qing opened the box and looked at the contents on the paper."This is too expensive, it actually gave us twenty acres of tea plants, and it's even a superior one ..." "Since you've given it to us, we'll just keep it." To Lady Jin and Cao Yunniang, these twenty acres of tea garden was nothing. After all, with the great fortune she had given them, Cao Yunnieng could be said to have opened a path to heaven. With this political achievement, he could be comparable to spending more than ten years in the government.
Su Qing still felt apologetic, "Yao'er, we must remember this kindness from Madam Jin. If we are able to repay her in the future, we must."
"Yes, mother, don't worry. I will remember it all!"
Su Qing then felt more at ease, "I've been busy the whole day. It's getting late, I should go upstairs to rest."
"Mother, please take a rest first. I would like to see the blueprints for the brocade garden. Is there anything that can be improved on?"
"Alright, I know you won't be able to relax if you're not busy. Earlier, I cooked eight treasured rice for you. If you feel hungry later on, you can go and get a bowl."
"Then I'll go get a bowl now and eat it before I think about the blueprints."After all, the blueprints can't be avoided. If they don't eat the Eight Treasures Rice, then those girls must have stolen it all. Who told their mother's cooking skills to be so good!" As Mu Yunyao spoke, she hurriedly got up and walked towards the kitchen!
Su Qing smiled as she held onto her."Sit here quickly. Mother will help you get a bowl of soup. Seeing your greedy look, those who don't know will think that Mother is always hungry for you."
"It's all my mother's fault for her excellent cooking skills. No wonder I had no potential."
"Yes, yes, strange mother."
Su Qing served the food to Mu Yunyao and also brought a small plate of food to her. After seeing that she had finished eating, she cleaned up the dishes and returned to her room to rest.
Mu Yunyao lightly rubbed her stomach. She had originally eaten some snacks in the afternoon at the Embroidery Garden, but now that she ate another bowl of rice, she felt a little uncomfortable.
"Mistress is not hungry, but does not eat." A voice suddenly sounded out, startling Mu Yunyao, who was deep in thought. She felt surprised, as if the lump of ice had started to pay attention to these trivial matters."If I don't eat, mother will always be worried. After eating some, she can finally have a good night's sleep." 'As long as I can make my mother feel at ease ... '
No matter how small, she would still be willing to do it.
His forehead twitched as he thought about what he had just said. He felt like he had understood something, but when he thought about it more carefully, he felt like he could not grasp on to anything.
Mu Yunyao looked at the blueprints for the Garden of Embroidery for a while. Suddenly, there was a gust of wind outside, which blew open the window and blew in a hot air."Is it going to rain again?"
The only place with a mild climate in Jiang-Nan that he wasn't used to was where it rained often during the summer. The weather was clear during the day, and in the blink of an eye, dark clouds covered the sky.
Seeing the rain falling, he shut all the windows.
Mu Yunyao couldn't fall asleep for a while, so she instructed six taels of silver to rest.
Just as he was about to go upstairs, there was a sudden knock on the door. He quickly turned around and asked, "Master?"
"Open the door."
The sound of the rain was getting louder and louder. When the door was opened, the figure standing at the entrance was already soaked through.
Seeing the newcomer, Mu Yunyao was shocked in her heart, "Ding Yue Lan ...."
Her face was extremely pale, even worse than last rainy night. However, her mental state was much better than last time, so when she saw Mu Yunyao, she stiffly revealed a smile."Rain Night, come and disturb Lady Mu."
"What are you talking about, Madam? It's raining heavily outside, come in quickly." Mu Yunyao helped Ding Yinglan in and instructed her subordinates to call Jinlan and Jinqiao over.
Looking at the water stains left on the carpet after she had walked past them, she said apologetically, "I've troubled you once last time, and now I'm going to have to trouble you again. I really have nowhere to go, but here, I feel like you won't reject me."
"What did Madam say? As long as you are willing to come, we will welcome you to Nebula Market at any time." Mu Yunyao told him to take a few taels, but Jin Lan and Jin Qiao had already come out to receive him. Just like last time, they went to prepare hot water and ginger tea.
Lady Jin didn't say anything more and went to the back room to bathe and change.
In the outer room, Jin Lan asked Mu Yunyao, "Miss, which set of clothes should I give to Ding Yue Lan?"
"Weren't you still wearing the same clothes as before? Bring the set over, I'll take it in myself later."
"Yes, miss."
Lady Jin was wearing a snow-white robe after showering, so she went around the screen to see Mu Yunyao holding onto the red pony lantern as she stood at the side.
"It's night and the Madam has just had another shower of rain. Logically speaking, we should have prepared some simple and light clothes for her. However, after thinking about it for a while, I still feel that these clothes are the most suitable for her." Mu Yunyao's gaze was clear, and her smiling eyes shone with a warm light under the light of the candle flame.
Ding Yue Lan walked up and stared at the bright and resplendent dress before her. She felt her eyes burning with passion."You're right. I also feel that this set of clothes is the most suitable for me."
She wanted to live recklessly and arrogantly. Now, even if she was stepped into the mud, she couldn't throw away her pride because once something was lost, it would be hard to find it again! Mu Yunyao smiled and stepped forward to help Ding Yinglan put on her dress. Then she took two steps back and looked at the stunning beauty in front of her as she exclaimed, "As long as Madame is willing to walk two rounds around in this outfit, I'll never worry about selling my clothes from the Nebula Market."
