She’s Not Afraid of Trouble
Mu Yunyao looked at Jin Lan with appreciation . “You’re right . Lady Zhou’s words are full of praise for me . She says that I’m no worse than those noble girls in the Capital!”
Jin Qiao nodded on one side . “Lady Zhou is right about this!”
Jin Lan couldn’t help but glare at her . “How could it be this simple!? That Lady Zhou is not simply a pure compliment . ”
“Huh? Is it clear praise and derogation? That can’t be it?”
Jin Lan thought about her guess . Seeing Mu Yunyao look at her with a slightly encouraging gaze, she couldn’t help but tentatively said, “Miss, this servant will dare to speak out . If I’m wrong, please forgive me . ”
“Tell me about it . ”
“ Lady Zhou praises Miss, and the maidservant agrees with her very much . No matter if it was appearance or talent, Miss was in no way inferior to those noble ladies of the Capital . When ordinary people heard Lady Zhou’s words, they could not help but feel pleased with themselves . Perhaps after entering the Capital, they might even compare themselves to those noble ladies . With Miss now in charge of Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo, if she really wants to show off, no one will be able to cover it up . But this way, it will be extremely disadvantageous for Miss . After all, Miss is s only addressing the Old Madam of the Su family as a grandmother . ”
Mu Yunyao laughed, “You’re right, the Su family is like a big tree, my mother and I are just minor details of this tree, but there is that blood tie . If the relationship is there, it will affect the whole body . As long as I am uneasy in the Su family, some people can hold this point and make a fuss . If I really can’t carry it clearly, I’m afraid the first person in the Su family who can’t accommodate is my mother and me . ”
Jin Qiao couldn’t help but stroke her chest . “I really didn’t expect that things were so complicated and complex . On the contrary, that Lady Zhou treats people warmly, but her heart is also very dark! Isn’t this taking advantage of you completely?”
“The Zhou family and the Su family have never been on good terms, so why would she kindly remind me?”
Jin Lan had worried on the side . “Miss, Wen Mama saw you and Madame Zhou . Would she said something that would harm you after returning to the Su family?”
Mu Yunyao slightly smiled, “The two of you are going to follow me to the Su family . Since it’s like this, there are some things that I need to tell you in advance . Just now, Jin Lan’s words came to the point . Mother is Old Madam Su’s biological daughter, but Mother has never met Old Madam Su after so many years . Even though they were blood-related, their relationship was not as close as the servants who had served her for a long time . Besides, my father was born in poverty, so he could not enter the Su family’s eyes . People like me looked like a stain to the Su family . Therefore, when you come to the Capital, you have to be careful in your words and actions . If you encountered something, you should think more and never act impulsively . ”
“Yes . Please rest assured, Miss . We’ll be patient and won’t cause trouble for you and Madam . ” Jin Lan was still able to hold on, but Jin Qiao had a nervous expression on her face .
“Miss, let’s endure for now and wait until later to take revenge!” Jin Qiao’s eyes were wide open as she spoke with a solemn expression .
Mu Yunyao couldn’t hold back her laughter . “What you said is also a plan, but if you can’t stand on the topic of reasoning, can’t you think of a way to make the person on the topic unable to speak?”
Jin Lan and Jin Qiao had puzzled faces, but Mu Yunyao didn’t explain any further . Right now, no matter how much she talked about it, the two of them still couldn’t feel the same . They have to come to the Su family’s residence to understand gradually . What the Su family says is never the truth, but whose skill is hard! And she went back this time only to get revenge . Naturally, she was not afraid of getting into trouble .
In the next few days, many people came to visit Su Qing . Each of them’s attitudes was peculiarly close to her and gave her generous gifts . Mu Yunyao didn’t especially follow Su Qing to receive them . Instead, she concentrated on arranging Ni Yun Fang .
Since she was going to the Capital, she naturally had to set up Ni Yun Fang in the Capital as soon as possible . This way, it would at least be convenient for her to get dressed .
After several busy days, Wen Mama once again mentioned the matter of departure: “Madam, just yesterday, the Old Madak sent a letter to remind me . I hope that Madam and Young Miss can return to the Su family as soon as possible . Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, the Old Madam will definitely want a family reunion . ”
“It’s really my fault to make my mother worry about it . Yao’er, how are things arranged?”
“Mother, when we came to Jingling City, we had nothing . Thanks to the help of the people in Jingling City, we had a firm foothold and today’s property . Before this, I had talked to Lord Li, the salt transportation envoy, that we wanted to give back to the people in Jingling City . But later, there was a case of stealing salt, and the whole Jiangnan area was in turmoil . Lord Li has no time to do so, and this has delayed the matter and kept pushing back to the present . We are leaving now and can’t say when we will have another chance to come back . Naturally, we have to keep this promise . ”
Su Qing nodded her head, “That’s right . You’re right . Previously, we discussed how to take advantage of the festivity during the Dragon Boat Festival . But unfortunately, it was interrupted by the incident . Now, we have to make good use of this opportunity . Otherwise, the people of Jingling City will say that we are ungrateful . ”
Mu Yunyao smiled as she looked at Wen Mama . “Wen Mama, I’m truly sorry . Stay here for two more days . I’ll discuss this with Lord Li so that we can settle this matter as soon as possible . We can set off as well . ”
“Yes . ” Wen Mama left the room . After returning to Bu Xian Luo, her expression was slightly gloomy . She thought for a moment, then found a brush and paper to write the letter and sent it to the Capital overnight .
When the letter was sent out, Steward Qin reported the news to her . After Mu Yunyao heard this, Mu Yunyao laughed and did not take it seriously .
Combined with what had happened in her previous life, Mu Yunyao had a faint feeling, as if the Su family didn’t want too many people to notice the pair of mother and daughter . In that case, she had to go back with a big fanfare, and it would be best if everyone knew about it . She wants to see how the Su family will treat them in this situation .
The next day, Mu Yunyao went to the Li family’s residence to seek an audience . When Lady Zhou heard the reason for her arrival, she asked someone to invite Li Munian back .
“Greetings, Lord Li . ”
“Miss Mu need not be so courteous . I heard that Miss Mu came here this time to discuss how to return the favor to the people in Jingling City . ”
“Yes . ” Mu Yunyao’s face held a smile as she spoke in a gentle voice,” Earlier, I discussed with Lord Li that we would like to give back a hundred thousand silver taels to the people of Jingling City . After that, because of the delays, we have been pushed back until now . Seeing that we are leaving jingling City, I really don’t want to give up . I must keep this promise . ”
“Miss Mu’s kind heart is really admirable . ” Today, because of the salt tax incident, the Li family received a reprimand from the Emperor . Even his father was exceptionally cautious in front of the Emperor, afraid that saying something wrong would make the Holy Emperor unhappy . Although the matter of Mu Yunyao giving a few taels of silver back to the people of Jingling City wasn’t too big, if he could manage it well, he had credit praise for it . He hopes this contribution can make the impression of the Li family in the Emperor’s heart better!
