Chapter 284
~ SU YOU GIVES CLOTHES ~
Mu Yunyao didn’t pay any attention when she met with Su You before . The Su family is hosting a banquet . Nominally they want to celebrate her being rewarded by the Emperor and welcome them back to the Su family . The list of the invited guests and the display of the big family all reveal an unusual flavor .
But she merely didn’t expect Su You would bring someone to the Jiyue Pavilion on the night before the banquet .
Mu Yunyao put down the brush in her hand and covered the calligraphy paper before asking Jin Lan to invite the person inside .
Su you walked into Mu Yunyao’s room, looked back and forth for a moment, couldn’t help but slightly snort, “Are you lying to me?”
Mu Yunyao blinked her eyes in confusion, “Elder sister Su You asked this right after entering the door . How have I lied to you?”
Su You glared at Mu Yunyao, her pale face flushed red from anger . “You said that you don’t have any clothes to wear, but I can see that the furnishings in your room are very luxurious . Could it be that you spent all your silver on this?”
Mu Yunyao looked at the maidservants behind Su You . They were holding a tray in their hands, and on the tray was a sewn set of clothes, “You … You actually helped me prepare clothes?”
That day, she only felt that Su You’s thoughts were simple and that her eyes were wide open, similar to the Snow Fox on the table . She teased Su You a little, but she didn’t expect the other party to take it seriously .
Su You stomped her feet . Just as she was about to say something, she felt her throat blocked up and her hands pressed against her chest to breathe .Mu Yunyao was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to support her . While helping her breathe normally, she reached out and pressed on the acupoint on her chest . “Don’t be anxious . Breathe in slowly . Everything will be fine very soon . ”
The hand holding her is very warm, and the place where Mu Yunyao held onto was very sore, but it alleviated her turbulent nausea and discomfort . Not long after, Su You slowly recovered from it, and she shouted at the maidservants and mama that surrounded her to get her water and impatiently drank it . She looked at Mu Yunyao with a pleased expression, “Just now, you … are you scared?”
Mu Yunyao helped Su You to sit down, and when she saw the look of pride in her eyes, she couldn’t help but feel helpless, “That’s right, I was indeed frightened by you . ”
“I know, you’re afraid that I won’t be able to catch my breath and die at your place . After that, my mother and father will definitely not let you go, and you’ll have to pay with your life . ”
When Mu Yunyao heard the words, she couldn’t help but stretched out her hand and patted Su You’s head, “Don’t worry, you won’t die for a while by looking at your appearance . Before you’re dead, I’ll make a big noise and disturb all the people in residence . With so many people present, you’ll have nothing to do with me if you die . ”
The mama behind Su You couldn’t help but reveal an angry expression . How could this Mu Yunyao curse the Fifth Miss like that?
Su You, however, did not mind . After being stunned for a while, she suddenly clapped her hands and laughed: “Is that a solution? It seems like you really are an idiot, and you should get someone to carry me out before I die so that you can get rid of this relationship a little faster . ”
“Alright, if you are to be sick again next time, I will follow the method you taught me . ”
“Hmph, it’s not like you have anything nice to look at it . Coming here this time is enough and will definitely not come again in the future . Lu Liu, give her that piece of clothing . I am afraid that there won’t be any clothes to wore tomorrow . ” After she spoke, Su You stood up and coughed softly twice . It looked like she seemed to be very disgusted, “The fragrance you have over here is also bad . It seems like you’ve really spent all your silver on decorating . You’re not living meticulously . I can’t stay any longer, so let’s go . ”
After which, she walked out .
Jin Qiao stood at the side and was stunned by what she saw . “Could it be that Miss Fifth come here to get revenge?”
Mu Yunyao walked to the side of the table and picked up the clothes on the tray . The entire set of the skirt was very exquisite, and the style was also exceptionally extraordinary . It was divided into two layers, inner and outer layers . The inner layer used high-quality silk brocade, the silk was white in color, embroidered with a beautiful pattern of butterflies piercing flowers . The outer layer was made of the finest jade-green silk, and the dress was a jade-green color . The designs and patterns on it also softened a little, making it seem fresh and refined .
Jin Lan helped to spread out her clothes . After looking at it, she couldn’t help but reveal a surprised expression . “This Luo dress is so beautifully made . It seems like it’s not made in a short period of time . ”
Mu Yunyao stretched out her hand to stroke the jade-green water outer, her eyes revealing a complicated expression . “Carefully put it away . I’ll wear this to the banquet tomorrow . ”
“Yes, Miss . ”
Jin Qiao placed the clothes on the shelf, and Jin Lan helped Mu Yunyao untie her hair . “Miss, that Fifth Miss … You seem to like her very much?”
Mu Yunyao looked at herself up in the bronze mirror and couldn’t help but slightly smile . “Perhaps it’s because we’re both in the same boat . ”
“Sympathize with each other?” Jin Lan was slightly confused .
“It’s just a feeling . I can’t explain it clearly . ”
Seeing that Mu Yunyao didn’t want to speak anymore, Jin Lan tactfully stopped asking and gently smoothed her hair, “Miss, you are going to attend the banquet tomorrow, so you’ll have a rest earlier today . ”
“Got it . You guys can go down as well . ”
Lying on the bed, Mu Yunyao slightly turned around and set her gaze on the clothes hanging by the bed . If her guess was not wrong, the clothes should have been prepared by the Second Madam for Su You to wear when at the came out age ceremony . The ceremony has not been carried out all the time . There wasn’t much of a difference in shape in their bodies, just a slight modification, and it became her size .
When she saw Su You, she felt as if she saw herself in a previous life struggling to live . The feeling of trying hard to breathe, yet still being unable to stand up to the footsteps of death, of being alive was enough to make people go crazy . However, Su You was luckier than her in her previous life because she has parents who love her every possible way . Although the journey is difficult, it’s good that someone supports her behind her back .
Mu Yunyao closed her eyes and covered up the complicated emotions in her eyes . She sighed lightly, “I owe her a dress today, which is to say, I owe her a debt of gratitude . I’ll find an opportunity to return it some other day . ”
Banquet was held as scheduled the next day .
As there were quite a few people invited to the banquet, the location was decided to be at Liulan Courtyard in the East District, where the place was spacious, and the scenery was beautiful . It was also filled with autumn chrysanthemums, making it very convenient to enjoy the flowers .
Mu Yunyao put on her clothes and tidied up before heading to Su Qing’s place .
Su Qing looked at Mu Yunyao’s face, and her expression finally relaxed a little . “After resting for the past two days, the wounds have finally healed . If you don’t look carefully, you won’t be able to tell much . ”
“It wasn’t too bad anyway . ” Mu Yunyao helped Su Qing straighten her sleeves and looked at her beautiful appearance . She couldn’t help but praise her mother, “My mother is so beautiful . ”
“Did you eat honey today? Why are your words sounding so nice?”
“Mother was originally a good person . What I said was from the heart, so I didn’t specifically say anything nice to hear . ”
Su Qing couldn’t hold back her laughter . She was still a bit worried, “I wonder who we’ll meet at today’s banquet . ”
“Mother, you don’t have to worry too much . We don’t know most of the people who come . When that happens, you only need to talk to my adoptive mother . You don’t have to worry about anything else . ” The Eldest Madam’s purpose for hosting this banquet was clearly impure, and she wouldn’t be so kind as to let her and her mother be the main characters of this banquet .
“Yes, Mother understands . ”
