Mu Yunyao hurriedly nodded."Mother, please be at ease. I'm only obediently living my own life. How would I have any relationship with this Lord Li?"
Lady Jin sighed."If it weren't for the Nightless Pavilion and the Nebula Pavilion, I really would have brought you and Sister Su into the capital."
"Mother, there's no need to worry. In a few days, I might even send the Nebula Pavilion and No Envy Lou into the capital. At that time, I'll come to you."
"That's great. After I arrived in the capital, all I hoped for was for this day to come." Lady Jin really couldn't bear to part with Mu Yunyao. Although they hadn't spent much time together in the past half year, it made her feel incomparably fresh and at ease. She could even gradually put aside all of the suffering.
"Mother, there's no need to be sad. Once you and Father have settled down, I can also bring mother to the capital to see you. I just so happen to see the prosperity there."
Mu Yunyao didn't know what to say, but after dispelling the sadness in Lady Jin's heart, she got up and said goodbye.
A few days passed unknowingly, and it was finally the full moon of Lady Jin's child. She took care of Madame Jin meticulously. On the day before the full moon, she specially came in the evening to help Madam Jin perspire at the full moon, so when Madam Jin finished bathing early in the morning, she felt relaxed all over. It was as if the delivery had not happened to her at all ...
A little mark was left on it.
Mu Yunyao accompanied Su Qing to the Cao family's residence. The silver red was already waiting at the entrance. When she saw them, she hurriedly led them to the backyard.
Very quickly, the guests were gathered and Mu Yunyao followed them to the front courtyard.
As soon as he walked in, he saw the man standing next to Cao Yunsheng. He looked very young, about 25 or 26 years old. He had a warm smile on his face, which made people feel close to him.
However, Mu Yunyao discovered that his smile was floating on the surface and didn't reach her eyes in the slightest. It was as if his smile had already become a mask that completely covered up his true emotions, making it impossible for others to notice. This Li Munian was the youngest son of Prime Minister Li Yuanzhou, and he was extremely favored since he was young. It was said that he was forced by Prime Minister Li to take the test to get his name, but who would have thought that the Li Family didn't place the most importance on him now?
Li Muqian, who was worshiped as a second-grade scholar, was not Li Mubai who was good at fighting, but was rather the inconspicuous Li Munian.
Mu Yunyao stood beside Lady Jin with her eyes slightly lowered, her appearance respectful and quiet to the extreme. His gaze finally stopped on Mu Yunyao's body. He was a little surprised in his heart, thinking that Mu Yunyao, at such a young age, had already received two rewards from the Emperor. Furthermore, she had become a commoner and had been taken in as his adopted daughter.
Right now, she should be showing off her indifference. However, she was dressed elegantly and her expression was tranquil. If it weren't for the fact that her beauty was hard to conceal, it would have been easy for people to ignore her.
"You must be Miss Mu. I've heard of Miss Mu's kindness in the capital. She has exceptional skills and is worthy of respect."
She subconsciously took half a step to the side to replace Mu Yunyao as she replied, "Yao`er is still young and has yet to learn many of the rules. This is too much for Sir Li to praise. Yao`er, hurry up and greet her."
Mu Yunyao didn't raise her head. She followed her words and went forward to pay her respects before returning to Lady Jin's side.
Li Munian's eyes moved, but the smile on his face didn't change. He nodded and looked away, chatting gently with Cao Yunsheng.
Cao Yunnian was about to enter the capital, and his future prospects were limitless. Everyone had prepared a generous amount of gifts, and when they saw the beautiful boy being carried out, they praised him continuously. This made Lady Jin smile.
Li Munian took off a jade pendant and placed it on a plate carried by a maid, "This jade pendant was given to me by my father when I was a weakling. It doesn't mean anything valuable, but it means luck and peace.
"How could that be? This is a gift from Prime Minister Li, and it is extremely valuable to Lord Li. How could this child be able to bear it?"
"This child has just reached the full moon, and he already looks so exquisite and cute. When I saw him, I was also very happy. I wanted to carry him home and raise him. This can also be considered fate for me and this child. I hope that this child will be lucky and safe in the future." Did the child need a name? "
Cao YunNian nodded, "Yes, I have."
"What a good name. The quality of a man is better than the quality of a man, while the quality of a man is better than the quality of a man." Gentleman Peiyu, this gift of mine is really timely." The present she prepared was not considered to be expensive, it was a pair of children's clothes. The clothes were especially small and exquisite, but the inner garments, outer garments, shoes and hats were all complete, there were even belts and pockets, embroidered with an especially adorable design, letting some of the husbands ...
When people saw her, they couldn't bear to let go and continuously praised her craftsmanship.
Mu Yunyao responded with a smile, but didn't say much.
The banquet for the full moon ended happily for the guests. Just as Mu Yunyao was about to leave, she was called to halt by a maid."Your servant greets Miss Mu."
"Miss doesn't need to be so courteous, I wonder who you are ..." The maid in front of him was dressed in a lake-green robe. Her smile was sweet and her manners were considerate, but there was a trace of imperceptible arrogance in her eyes.
"This servant is the maid by Madam Yan's side. Madam appreciates Miss's embroidery skills and would like to speak a few words with you." As he spoke, he raised his hand and indicated to the carriage beside him.
Mu Yunyao turned her head and said to Su Qing, "Mother, you go home first. I'll go speak with Madame Zhou and have my foster mother send someone to escort me home."
Su Qing was a little worried, but she knew that it was not the time to say more. She could only nod her head and shake Mu Yunyao's hand, "Alright."
Mu Yunyao smiled as she nodded, then followed her brows as she walked towards the carriage at the side."Mu Yunyao greets Madame Zhou."
As soon as she finished speaking, the curtain of the carriage was opened and a beautiful woman came over with a smile. She had beautiful eyebrows and a delicate face, and a teardrop in front of her eyes had perfectly blended in, causing her to feel a bit weaker."Miss Mu, you are not being courteous and presumptuous enough to invite you over, has it delayed your return home to rest?" "Madam is too polite. My home is also close to this place. If it was earlier or later, it wouldn't have obstructed us." Mu Yunyao had a smile on her face. Her smile was especially sweet and tranquil, and her eyes were completely clear without a trace of haze.
