Can't Wake Up from Sleep in Winter of March
Lady Jin only thought that she was comforting her . After nodding her head lightly, she secretly thought for a bit and had Yin Hong go to buy some medicines to nourish the body and deliver it to her . She had to help Mu Yunyao heal her wrists and fingers .
After the embroidery completed, Mu Yunyao felt her entire body relax . After dinner, she went to bed early to rest and slept all the way until the next day . When it was late, and she still wasn’t willing to get up .
Su Qing walked in with the Eight Treasures Rice . Seeing her curled up in the blanket, she couldn’t help but pinch her face . “What time is it? Why aren’t you getting up? Nan and Mao both already cleaned the yard . ” Mu Yunyao still closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, but the corners of her lips couldn’t help but raise slightly, causing Su Qing to pinch her cheeks once again . “You bad girl . Last night you were making a ruckus and wanted to eat the Eight Treasures Rice . Mother brought it to you now just after it cooked . Quickly stop pretending to be asleep, and get up, wash up hurriedly, and eat something . Otherwise, I will take the Eight Treasures Rice out to Nan and Ah Mao . ”
Mu Yunyao hurriedly opened her eyes and threw herself into Su Qing’s embrace . She said in a very dissatisfied and spoiled manner, “Ever since I had Nan’er and Ah Mao, you’ve stopped caring for me, Mother!”
Su Qing hugged her with a smile . “What nonsense are you spouting? If Mother didn’t love you, I would have picked you up long ago, you lazy bum . ”
“There are clouds in the ancient saying: spring is sleepy, autumn is lacking, summer is a nap, and can’t wake up from sleep in Winter of March . I’m listening to the advice of the ancients and cultivating my mind and soul!”
After Su Qing heard what she said, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry . She wanted to say something, but when she thought about how she had been busy working day and night on her embroidery for the New Year’s gift, she couldn’t say anything .
At this moment, Mu Yunyao had just woken up and came out of the bed . Her entire body was warm and warming as she laid on her knees . She had an appearance similar to a little girl, which made her look particularly pitiful .
“Hurry up and wash your face and eat . If you still feel sleepy after eating, go to bed again . ”
Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but narrow her eyes . Her bright eyes filled with a smile . “I knew that Mother loves me the most in this world . ”
“You silly child, Mother only has you as her daughter . If I don’t love you, who else can I love?”
Mu Yunyao’s smile grew wider and wider as she rolled around on Su Qing’s knees before finally getting up to put on her clothes .
Su Qing helped her to arrange her dress and looked at the blue magnolia blossoms on her sleeves . She couldn’t help but smile . “Mother think that you’ve grown a lot in the past half-year . When spring comes, I’m afraid that your old clothes won’t be able to wear it anymore . ”
Mu Yunyao particularly treasured the clothes on her body: “This blue magnolia dress was personally made for me by Mother . It fits her body no matter what, so how can I not wear it?”
“You say like that would please and make Mother happy . Mother would like you to grow taller and fatter . If the clothes don’t fit well, then you can not wear them . “
“Although Mother’s hands are a bit better, she still can’t bear to be tired . I don’t have the heart to let you hold the needle and thread to make clothes all day . It is enough for me . ”
Su Qing smiled but did not reply . She just watched as she washed up .
Mu Yunyao made up her mind . Previously, she had been busy with embroidery and hadn’t prepared winter clothes at all . She had wanted Jin Lan and the others to find time to help her make two clothes, but she didn’t expect that Su Qing would do it personally . Now that she had free time, she naturally wouldn’t let her tire herself .
After eating a bowl of warm Eight Treasures Rice, Mu Yunyao felt her entire body warming up . It wasn’t easy to get bored, so she didn’t want to do anything and instead wore a warm fox skin cloak as she guarded the brazier, leaning against the soft couch and sipping tea .
Su Qing looked at her lazy appearance and felt that she was both cute and annoying, so she decided to let her be . Jin Lan and Jin Qiao walked in and stayed outside for a while . After dispersing the cold air from their bodies, they arrived in front of Mu Yunyao, “Miss’s place is still comfortable, and I don’t know why it’s been so cold these two days . Judging from that gloomy look, it might have to snow again tomorrow . Even the south would not be so cold . “
Mu Yunyao poured two cups of tea and passed it over, “Have some tea to warm yourself . ”
The two of them happily received the teacup . Jin Lan took a sip and sighed softly, “Many thanks, Miss . If Shopkeeper Qin had drunk the tea that Miss made, he would definitely not praise me again . ”
“Then you should find some time to practice your skills properly in brewing tea . In the future, I might even send you out to manage Bu Xian Luo . ”
Jin Lan quickly shook her head, “Miss, don’t tease this servant . I know her abilities . It’s fine to run errands for Miss . If I were in charge of Bu Xian Lou, I would have fainted in just two days . ”
Mu Yunyao smiled and looked at Jin Qiao, “How is the matter that I asked you to inquire about?”
”Reporting to Miss, this servant went to ask Shookeeper Qin . He said that the embroidery ladies of Cai Yue Pavilion were already scattered all over the place . It was sure that they would make a move in the next two days . Also, Tan Bawang had already let out of prison . However, he was directly brought back to Huai’an City by Lord Tan . It said that he was so thin as if he has suffered quite a bit in prison . ”
Mu Yunyao slightly raised the corner of her lips . “As The County Magistrate Zhao is a straightforward person, he has always been upright in his conduct, and this time he clearly had the intention of investigating Tan Bawang, but didn’t expect that Tan Lin would interfere with his plans and push the blame onto a few of his subordinates . He must be unhappy in his heart . As the parent official of Jingling City, he had to deal with one or two people . It would be strange that Tan Bawang didn’t suffer . ”
“Miss, this servant feels that letting that Tan Bawang return like this is letting him off too easily . ”
“Don’t worry, even if we don’t look for Tan Bawang, he would come back to look for us, Lord Tan has been in charge of Cai Yue Pavilion for so many years, he is not someone who will suffer losses . Now that he has a request from us, he lowered his posture, and when Cai Yue Pavillion’s credit for teaching embroidery needle technique came out, he would naturally not put us in his eyes . ”
Jin Lan and Jin Qiao couldn’t help but worry . “Since Miss understands, why did you take the initiative to pick him? Spreading such a good thing as embroidery needle technique, no matter who you are looking for, I am afraid that you will be busy with it . ”
“There’s naturally a reason for choosing him . If it isn’t for the fact that the feud between Cai Yue Pavilion and us not resolved, I will not use him as a weapon . ”
“Although this servant doesn’t understand, from what Miss said, I feel that it’s so powerful . ” Jin Qiao said with a smile .
“If you don’t understand, only think about it . Both of you have great talents . It’s only that you two lack experience and insight . From today onwards, if you two are willing to serve by my side, you should watch, listen, and think more . If you are willing to act alone, no matter if it is the Ni Yun Fanf or Bu Xian Luo, I will give you a position as a shopkeeper . ”
Jin Lan and Jin Qiao didn’t hesitate at all . They immediately bowed to Mu Yunyao and said, “I am willing to serve Miss . ” Mu Yunyao smiled lightly . “Good, since you two are determined to follow me and serve me, I won’t treat you poorly . ”
