Senior Servant Liu who was still smiling suddenly froze. According to their original guess, even if Su Qing and Mu Yunyao had something to take along, they wouldn't go far. Who would have thought that a boat wouldn't be able to hold them? Recalling the boxes that had previously been placed in the courtyard, Senior Servant Liu felt a lump in her throat. 'When we arrive at the Su Family, there will be nowhere to put the things. The First Madam will lose face.
He was punished!
After Senior Servant Liu realized that the situation wasn't right, she thought of a way to send a letter to the First Madam, so she came to encourage Mu Yunyao, "Miss, the scenery along the way is extremely beautiful, moreover, we've been on the boat for three days. I'm sure you're tired too, would you like to go ashore for a night's rest?" Mu Yunyao slightly shook her head. Her eyebrows furrowed and her tone became a little dejected, "Earlier, there was a delay of many days in order to deal with the matter of Ziling City, but with the golden signboard personally bestowed by the Emperor, we cannot abandon the Nebula Pavilion and the Blossom Heart Pavilion. We have already decided to return it to the citizens of Ziling City.
Mother and I felt extremely guilty, and now we wish that we could grow a pair of wings and fly directly to Grandmother. Just where would we be able to get ashore to rest for the sake of our own well-being? "
Senior Servant Liu was speechless. She carefully looked at Mu Yunyao's expression, hoping to see some hypocrisy in her words. But no matter how she looked at it, the guilt and longing on her face were all sincere.
Su Qing also nodded in agreement, "Yao'er is right. We were already extremely uneasy after delaying for so long. Now we don't even have the mood to rest. Let's travel through the night."
Senior Servant Liu couldn't do anything but mutter, "Yes." When Senior Servant Liu left, Mu Yunyao's lips curled up into a smile."Mother, with our current speed, we should arrive in the capital in six days. Mother will have to suffer greatly on the way." Although Su Qing's seasickness was not very obvious, it was indeed very common to spend a long time on a boat ...
Unwell.
"Mother, what suffering do you have? It's rare for you to have such leisurely days. But you, you eat very little these days, don't starve yourself to death."
"Don't worry mother, I'm fine."
When Senior Servant Liu left Mu Yunyao's room, she couldn't help but feel angry. The First Wife had mentioned to her before that she would be rewarded with a hundred silver taels as soon as she finished this errand. Furthermore, she would also be arranged a good marriage for her son. She had originally thought that things would be very simple. To deal with two people from the countryside and use some tricks to make them unable to resist, she had neglected many things. Who would have thought that these two people would actually bring so many things with them?
This debt would definitely go to her. After all, she had not sent back the crucial information. In this way, not to mention bounty, it was good to not be punished. She couldn't help but think of a method to bring the boat to shore. If she had sent a messenger pigeon to send a message, she thought that before they reached the capital, she could have delivered the news to the First Lady. As she was thinking, she saw Zhiqiu pour the dregs into the river and her eyes immediately narrowed.
After which, a smile appeared on his face and his entire being relaxed.
Traveling north on the boat, the weather was especially cool, but Mu Yunyao's appetite was not that good, so she ate very little these two days. When Su Qing saw this, she became anxious and went to cook herself, hoping that Mu Yunyao would eat more.
Since there was nothing to do on the boat, Mu Yunyao read the afternoon book. Feeling a little tired, she slept on the bed for a while, and when she woke up, Su Qing was personally bringing the dishes over. When she saw that she had woken up, she quickly called out, "Did you wake up after smelling the fragrance of food?"
Mu Yunyao knew that Su Qing was worried about her, so she smiled as she spoke, hoping that she could relax a little."Isn't it precisely because I was awakened by mother's cooking?"
When the Snow Fox that had been lying beside Mu Yunyao's pillow saw her get up, it hurriedly stood up and jumped onto her shoulder. It intimately rubbed its head against the side of Mu Yunyao's face as it let out wuwu sounds from its mouth.
When Su Qing saw this, he could not help but laugh."This Snow Fox's personality is extremely compatible with yours." They were all coquettish.
"Mother is actually joking. I love it much more than this Snow Fox. Furthermore, how good-looking am I?"
"Aiyo, mother is indeed wrong. You are not like this Snow Fox. After all, the Snow Fox is not as shameless as you." If mother says it like that, I won't listen to her. I feel so sad that I feel hungry ... " Mu Yunyao wiped her hands as she spoke, then sat down on the edge of the table. After smelling the smell from the food, she abruptly stopped talking, her eyebrows moved, and then she asked without batting an eyelid, "These dishes are all mother's dishes.
Made it? "
"Yeah, your appetite isn't that good. You've eaten very little in the past two days, so you can eat some of the food I've cooked." Su Qing didn't notice Mu Yunyao's abnormality and handed the chopsticks over as she spoke.
Although she had Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, and the rest to accompany her, Su Qing still liked her taking care of Mu Yunyao. Every time she ate sweetly, she felt happier than when she was full.
Mu Yunyao got up and picked up some dishes before placing them in Su Qing's bowl."Mom, eat more as well." After picking up the dish, she pulled the Octadic Treasure Tofu in front of her as if it was convenient for her.
Su Qing felt a little strange. Mu Yunyao usually didn't like to eat tofu, so the smell of the beans was too strong. She had made this dish herself, so why was it so abnormal today? Just as he was about to ask, he inadvertently noticed the coldness in Mu Yunyao's eyes and his heart shook.
"This Octadic Treasure Tofu is excellent. I didn't expect there to be such ingredients on the ship. I wonder who prepared them?" Mu Yunyao raised her head to look at Ying Xue and asked with a smile.
"To reply Miss, Senior Servant Liu prefers tofu. Presumably, she asked someone to prepare it for her."
Mu Yunyao's fingers, who was holding onto a pair of chopsticks, lightly moved it."Un, what a coincidence, my mother really likes it too." As she spoke, she scooped a spoonful and placed it in her bowl, but she didn't use the spoon until the end.
Seeing Mu Yunyao act like this caused Su Qing to feel even more uneasy. She waited for the others to clear away the food, then accidentally knocked over her bowl. When the things in the bowl fell to the ground and were tidied up, she was unable to differentiate her original appearance.
It wasn't until Ying Xue and Chun Feng left that Su Qing couldn't help but say, "Yao'er, but ...." What's wrong with that? " Mu Yunyao smiled, but a cold light flashed in her eyes, "There's someone who can't bear it anymore, he doesn't want us to be too peaceful!"
