Mu Yunyao looked at Su Qing and, seeing that she had slightly nodded her head, she couldn't help but discard the last bit of hesitation in her heart. She stood up and picked up the cup of tea that had not been touched from the table and stood in front of Lady Jin.
Lady Jin quickly took a sip from her teacup as she couldn't suppress the smile on her face."Alright. Yao`er, quickly get up." As she spoke, she used both hands to help her up. She removed a pair of jade bracelets from her wrists and a golden hairpin from her hair, carefully helping Mu Yunyao put it on.
Mu Yunyao accepted it with a face full of smiles, but she didn't say any words of rejection. Now that she had become sworn brothers, she naturally couldn't be separated like before."Thank you, foster mother."
Lady Jin held her hand affectionately with a sincere smile in her eyes."Now I can be considered to have both children!"
Mu Yunyao looked at Lady Jin's bulging stomach with a pained expression on her face."Earlier, you were joking with Madam, saying that when your child is born, you will have to request a big red envelope from me. Now, it seems that not only can I not get the big red envelope, but instead take it out to give little brother as a present."
"You ... You're so petty as well. Relax, naturally, this Hong Feng will be given to you. When your little brother grows up, he will still be able to listen to your orders and run errands for you."
Mu Yunyao couldn't help but be happy, "That's great. It seems like I'll just have to make the red envelope for this meeting."
Su Qing couldn't hold back her laughter at the side, "Since you want to be sworn relatives, you should toast your tea to Master Cao. Why don't you set up a table at the Avaricious Restaurant tomorrow and treat it as a lively, lively meal?" Lady Jin quickly shook her head."I treat Yao'er as my own daughter, so I can't just let her go like this. I only came today to discuss it with little sister Su. Since Yao'er was willing to call me godmother, I naturally had to help her on this matter with my identity. When I get back, I'il ask you
The person chose an auspicious day and wrote a post, inviting all the famous people in the Tomb City over. We should formally pay our respects and hold a banquet."
"This... Isn't this a bit too obvious? "
"How is this considered bragging?" "I was even afraid that I would be bullied by Yao'er because she is my adopted daughter. It is within reason that she would receive such treatment."
Hearing Lady Jin's words, Mu Yunyao's heart filled with warmth. It could also be considered that she sincerely recognized this foster mother."I'll follow your arrangements."
"Alright, don't worry. Mother will not let you down."
Mu Yunyao nodded happily. She held Lady Jin in one hand and Su Qing in the other, "Then should I start preparing my clothes now? When the time comes, you'll have to dress up beautifully."
"Our Yao'er looks like this. She looks beautiful in all kinds of clothes."
Mu Yunyao shook their hands, "The two moms actually teased me. I won't talk to you guys anymore, I'm going to the kitchen to see what they have prepared. Then show your hands and treat your two mothers with respect."
"Then we'll have something good to say today."
Mu Yunyao went to the kitchen and meticulously prepared a table of food. The few of them ate in an exceptionally lively and comfortable manner.
Before Lady Jin left, Mu Yunyao instructed someone to place a charcoal brazier and fox fur coat on her carriage, then instructed Yin Hong to take good care of it. Only after that did she send the carriage off with her eyes.
When Supervisor Qin from the brocade garden next door heard about this matter, he could not help but inwardly twitch his mouth: "This Cao Yunsheng is really lucky."
Yu Yi had just finished drinking a bowl of ginger tea and was savoring the taste of it in his mouth. He couldn't help but be curious when he heard this: "Supervisor Qin, what do you mean by that?"
"Cao Yunsheng is relying on Lady Jin to achieve a meteoric rise. From now on, maybe even the Prince will respect him. Isn't that a great fortune?"
Yu Yi was even more confused."No matter how powerful Cao Yunsheng is, he will still be an official in front of you in the future. How can you make him respect you?"
"Since Lady Jin has adopted Lady Mu as her adopted daughter, then Cao YunNian is Lady Mu's foster father! Is that clear? "
"My foster daughter, my foster father, Lady Mu, Your Highness ... The more you talk about it, the more confused I get ... "
Steward Qin became furious and immediately took out an account book to throw at him: "Hurry up and scram. You will feel annoyed when you see it."
Yu Yi took the account book and casually flipped through it. When he saw the accounts, he couldn't help but click his tongue: "Manager Qin, right now you have so many things on your hands. Why don't you give me a red envelope for the new year? In this half a year, I have been traveling back and forth between the west of Guangdong and Ziling City, haven't I? "
"If you say any more nonsense, I'll give you a slap!"
"You're already so old, why are you still so angry? Can't you talk properly?" Yu Yi hurriedly left the room after he finished speaking, causing Chief Steward Qin to coldly snort for a long time.
Based on Lady Jin's meticulous attitude and the relationship between her and Lady Mu, it was likely that the adoption of Lady Mu would be arranged in a grand manner. This gift must be carefully considered.
Lady Jin had finally chosen the eighth day of the second month as her date. She had also decided to use her savings to make porridge in the Tomb City, especially for Mu Yunyao.
Mu Yunyao specially took out eight thousand silver and bought some rice to make porridge after she heard of this, so that she could cooperate with Lady Jin in giving out porridge in the Tomb City.
The news of her buying rice and inviting people in advance quickly spread throughout Tomb City. Lady Jin wanted to acknowledge Mu Yunyao as her adopted daughter. Many people were not surprised when they heard this. Lady Jin and Mu Yunyao had always been close, so admitting their adopted daughter only strengthened their relationship.
After the other wives heard this, they shook their heads and sighed. Then, they focused on thinking about what kind of congratulatory gift to give.
Cao Yunnian had outstanding political achievements. With Lady Jin's ninth rank title and the Emperor's reward for Mu Yunyao, the three of them couldn't be ignored. They naturally had to ask a lot before giving the gift, and it would be great if they could win against them. After the eighth day, when the Cao family was cleaned and renewed, Lady Jin got up early to start preparing. Cao YunNian, who didn't pay much attention to this at first, became more nervous as he carefully trimmed his beard in the mirror. He even took two sets of new clothes and asked Lady Jin to help him.
Palm-eye selection.
As she personally helped him put on his clothes, she said softly, "It's my fault. I've been thinking about how to arrange the banquet these few days, but I forgot to tell people to prepare two sets of clothes for you."
"Madam's body is currently heavy, so you and your child should be the first to go. These two sets of clothes were also made recently, so there's nothing to stop you." Lady Jin smiled as she helped him arrange his clothes, then she put on her sewing purse before feeling satisfied."Since Old Master thinks so highly of his foster daughter, Yao'er, then when our child is born, he will definitely be blessed in the future."
