Those women who had booked clothes beforehand were all beaming with happiness, especially Mistress Yang, who had added 200 taels of silver. On the fifth day, she saw the clothes and jewelry that had been delivered. Her dress was spread out and carried a light fragrance of flowers. It was mainly red and jade white, with colorful butterflies embroidered on the sleeves and collars of her clothes and embroidered on the right side of her skirt, like a beauty standing on the side of a flower bush, attracting a colorful butterfly.
The jade-white calmness suppressed the noise of the bustling flowers, making Mistress Yang, who was wearing a dress, seem more expensive. The more Mistress Yang put it on, the more satisfied she became. She directly dressed up to attend the banquet in the afternoon, which attracted the jealousy of who knows how many people. Especially during the banquet, when Madam Zhao and the rest saw that she was wearing Nebula Pavilion's uniform and specifically called her over to talk, they were even more amiable and gentle.
Let those who did not order clothes regret it until their intestines turned green.
After that, for the next ten or so consecutive days, many people would knock on the door every day to ask about it. It was only because Mu Yunyao had written down the name plate that made the people who were waiting give up.
When Mu Yunyao heard that Lady Zhao and the others had intentionally helped her raise the price, she immediately had Jin Lan and Jin Qiao send two bottles of Rose Fragrance that she had saved. Although the items were small, they were only to show that she had received their affection.
Because she was in a rush to get dressed, Mu Yunyao had to help make clothes and instruct the students on embroidery while thinking about the matter of starting a teahouse. She was so busy that she had no time to do anything.
Su Qing saw that she was in pain from running back and forth, so she moved over. She also stayed on the third floor of the Nebula Market, making it convenient for her to take care of her at any time.
It was already dusk and the sky had already darkened. Mu Yunyao saw that the disciples were extremely tired, so she instructed them to rest. In the past two days, Su Qing needed to take care of her daily needs and also needed to help to arrange the thread. It was not easy, so she was also persuaded to rest.
After arranging the account books, Mu Yunyao stood up and stretched her wrist. These past two days had been exceptionally sultry, probably because it was about to rain. As he was thinking, there was a sudden clap of thunder outside, followed by the sound of wind and rain.
Mu Yunyao couldn't help but walk to the window and open it to look outside. The sky was gloomy, the sky was so low that it seemed to be connected to the ground.
With the rain falling on her face, Mu Yunyao couldn't help but frown. She was just about to close the window when she suddenly saw a red-clothed figure appear at the corner of the street, walking towards the Nebula Market.
Mu Yunyao was shocked. The rain was too heavy, so the shadows on the street couldn't be seen clearly. She carefully sized up the scene for a while before finally confirming her guess. She hurriedly went downstairs and opened the door with the oil-paper umbrella.
The red figure seemed to be aimless as she walked in the heavy rain while staggering. When she felt the rain above her disappear, she suddenly turned around and saw Mu Yunyao, who was trying her best to hold up an umbrella for her.
It rained heavily and there was a wind. Mu Yunyao held onto her umbrella for a while before being drenched completely."Madam, the rain is too heavy. Let's take shelter at the Nebula Market for now." It was the same rain that had caused the Lady to be pleased with herself.
Ding Yue Lan was stunned. When she came back to her senses, she had already been dragged by Mu Yunyao into the Nebula Market.
Mu Yunyao took a large cloth and put it on for Ding Yue Lan before helping her up to the second floor.
Jin Lan heard some noises and walked down. Seeing Mu Yunyao and Ding Yue covered in sweat, her heart skipped a beat.
Jin Lan, go ask Jin Qiao to prepare some hot water. Then, make some ginger tea.
"Yes, miss."
Jin Lan went upstairs and told Jin Qiao to prepare some hot water. She also warned the others not to come down. Then, she went to the kitchen to make ginger tea.
Mu Yunyao helped Ding Yue to take off her wet clothes, and said in a gentle voice, "Although it's summer, women are born weak. It's not safe to get wet after getting wet from the rain, it's better for Madam to go take a bath and change."
Ding Yue Lan raised her hand and pushed her messy hair behind her ear. She laughed softly when she heard that. With a voice filled with indescribable despair, she said, "I didn't expect that a stranger who we've only met once would be so human as to get along with someone."
Mu Yunyao slightly retracted her gaze, as if she hadn't heard those words. She supported Lady Jin to the inner room and finished preparing the things needed to bathe. After saying a few words to Lady Jin, she left.
Jin Lan had already taken some dry clothes and was waiting at the door. Seeing Mu Yunyao come out, she hurriedly went to welcome her."Miss, please change your clothes first. The rain was too heavy just now. You're completely drenched."
Mu Yunyao changed her clothes and drank a bowl of warm ginger tea. Only then did she feel better, "I'm fine. You and Jinqiao go prepare some more food. Also, go upstairs and tell mom to let him rest upstairs, don't worry about me."
"Yes, miss."
After about half an hour, Ding Yue Lan finally changed into a new set of clothes. After bathing, her face blushed a little, and she looked much better than before.
Mu Yunyao gestured for Ding Yue to sit down before using a dry cloth to wrap up her drenched hair. After removing her pearl hairpin and exquisite makeup, she looked a lot less heroic and more delicate than usual.
"Madam, please drink some ginger tea to cool off."
Ginger tea into the mouth, spicy and sweet, warm to the stomach, as if even the chill in the heart was gone."Thank you, Lady Mu."
"Madam, there's no need to be so polite."
When Jin Lan and Jin Qiao brought the food over, Mu Yunyao motioned for them to put it down before saying to Ding Yue, "I haven't eaten anything tonight, but now that I've soaked in the rain, I feel extremely hungry. I presume that the Lady hasn't eaten either, if I don't take it seriously, I might as well make do with it a little?"
"No need, I'm not hungry ..." "Mother once said that don't think about things at night and when you're hungry, because it will only get worse the more you think about it. When you think about it again on the second day, when the sun rises in the east, it doesn't seem that serious." As Mu Yunyao spoke, she placed the chopsticks on the table. Seeing that Lady Jin didn't move, she ...
He did not try to persuade her otherwise, but started to eat.
She was beautiful and accompanied Su Qing for the past few days. In order to please her mother, she always brought along a hint of childishness when she ate, making her look as if she was eating a sweet meal. Whenever this happened, Su Qing would smile exceptionally happily.
The fragrance of the food assaulted her nostrils. When she saw his somewhat cute and innocent manner of eating, she could not help but feel that she had gained some appetite. She actually picked up the chopsticks and ate half a bowl of the food as well.
After finishing her meal, Mu Yunyao had Jin Lan bring over two cups of ginger tea, and each of them took a cup to rest on the soft couch outside.
Ginger tea was warm in her hand, her clothes were soft and warm, and the soft bed was covered with leather. She actually felt relaxed, and her heart was no longer shivering. After a moment of silence, she turned her head to look at Mu Yunyao."Since I've fallen to this state, aren't you curious about what happened?"
