Wen mama grew anxious."This number of people is far from enough, it's still better to call for a few more ..." Before he could finish his words, he heard the surrounding noise. Everyone looked over and saw two beautifully decorated ships pulling into the dock and slowly docking at the shore.
The two ships were much larger than the Su Clan's. The bows of the ships weren't in the usual square shape, but were carved with exquisite mountain and river patterns. With a glance, one could tell that the Su Clan's ships were extremely inconspicuous in front of these ships.
The crowd began to discuss this.
"Where did this ship come from? It really is exquisite and beautiful."
"It doesn't look like the style from the capital, but rather like the style from Jiangnan."
"Brother, you're quite knowledgeable, this is indeed the style of Jiangnan. Look at the insignia on the ship, it seems to be the Happy Shun Shipbuilding. It's been developing quite well recently, and it's been shipping quite a lot of things to the capital recently."
After the ship came to a stop, the people on the boat quickly got down and opened up the lower level. They then took out the big boxes and stacked them on the shore.
Qi mama had originally only been curious about the boat, but when she saw the boxes, she was immediately startled."Wen mama, could it be that these boxes are ..."
Senior Servant Wen nodded."Quickly find someone."
Senior Servant Qi couldn't believe her eyes. The things the mother and daughter pair had brought actually had to be transported by two ships, and from the looks of it, the boxes were extremely heavy. Just what were those things?
Mu Yunyao turned her head to instruct Jin Lan, "Jin Lan, quickly go get someone to help this mama get the gift I've prepared for our grandmother."
"Yes, miss." Jin Lan hurriedly brought the scribe and the painting forward.
"Six taels of silver, where is the box that the Miss had instructed me to leave alone?"
Liu Gan immediately went up to move the chest. When he moved it, he did not manage to stand firm. He knocked the lid off the box and it became bright.
Some of the gems and pearls fell out, startling Jin Lan. She rushed forward to support the box."Why are you so careless? Young mistress took great pains to collect these, they must be filial to the old lady! "
More and more people gathered around, and upon seeing what was leaked from the box, he could not help but exclaim, "This ... If the items in this box were to be converted into silver coins, it would probably cost tens of thousands of silver coins, right? "
"Did you see that red gem that fell out?" Colors like pigeon's blood were the highest quality gems. Even if you had money, it would still be difficult to buy it. Just what was the identity of this daughter of the Su Clan? "He doesn't seem to be a boorish person who's been spread around outside?"
"You believe the rumors too, I've heard some of them said before, you know ..."
Liu Liang hurriedly admitted his wrongs, "Please punish me, Master."
Su Qing stopped Mu Yunyao."Alright, hurry up and put it away. The most reasonable thing to do is to go back and visit Mother."
Qi mama hastened to chime in from the side."That's right, it's more important to return to the estate first."
Mu Yunyao nodded and helped Su Qing into the carriage.
After they left, more and more people gathered to watch the show. Some people even specifically counted the number of boxes they had taken down from the boat. The more they counted, the more shocked they were.
"There should be around two hundred boxes here, right?"
"Two hundred and twenty, tsk tsk..."What on earth could hold so many boxes?" Do you know the true identities of that lady and miss? " Some people could not stop themselves from boasting proudly. After being flattered by the surrounding people, they finally opened their mouths and said, "You may not know about that lady, but you must have heard about her."
She's the one who taught embroidery techniques in the Tombal Mountain City, the one who was rewarded by the Emperor, Miss Mu Yunyao! "
"What?" It's actually that Lady Mu? "
"Yeah, who would have thought? Lady Mu is actually the granddaughter of the Old Madam of the Su family. This Su family is really lucky to have such an capable granddaughter.
"That's true. Besides, that Lady Mu is extremely kind and has done many good deeds in Ziling City. The Nebula Pavilion and Everlasting City are even more popular. It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to say that they have made money every day."
"No wonder the presents you prepared are so valuable."
"That's right..." Everyone wanted to leave, but after looking for a while, they discovered that the Su Family was anxiously guarding the luggage of Mu Yunyao and Su Qing. Large wooden boxes were stacked on the dock, making it so that no one had a place to put them. However, there were too few servants in the Su Clan, and the box was rather heavy, so two people could only carry one box ...
It seemed extremely strenuous, and the prepared luggage carriage was even worse. For a moment, it seemed to be at a loss of what to do.
Senior Servant Qi was also worried, so she sent her manservant to report the situation to the first wife.
Mu Yunyao sized up the carriage. It was August in the west mausoleum of the capital, and the weather was already very cold sooner or later. The carriage had a faint smoky fragrance, which was slightly sweet and warm.
On one side was a small table with incense sandalwood fixed to it. On the other side was a tea set with a top grade purple clay pot. On both sides of the tea set were exquisite embroidered cushions and pillows. The entire carriage was decorated in an extremely magnificent manner. Mu Yunyao's eyes flashed with a faint smile. In her previous life, she hadn't received such treatment, and at that time, she didn't get a good rest after breaking her leg. Instead, she had been forced to do many jobs, to the point that whenever spring and autumn came around, the pain made her want to chop her leg off.
The roads were filled with carriages, which were extremely ordinary. The things laid inside were not thick, and the roads were uneven. The fatigue and bumpiness almost took half of her life.
She could still remember that back then, she had a terrible fever, but she didn't dare to make a sound, and could only forcefully endure it. When she reached the Su Clan, she became extremely ill, causing many servant girls to feel that she was extremely unlucky. She thought that once she recovered, her days would be better, but she didn't expect that after she recovered, her journey would be even more difficult. At that time, he had only learned a few large words from his father. He could not even write his own name properly, much less the taunts from the servants. He did not know what was going on ...
How many jokes came out. Once, she was finally summoned by her grandmother to pay her respects. Along the way, the maidservants that served her kept reminding her of the clan's rules, telling her to pay her respects when she saw the madame. She was already so flustered that she didn't know what to do.
The room was filled with mockery and laughter. It was also from that point on, if it was not necessary, Old Madam Su would not allow her to go forward anymore. The servants in the mansion also spread that she was like a servant with no master at all, and she originally wanted to find a maid to serve her and confront her, but not only did she fail to get justice, she was even called narrow-minded by others ...
