Only then did everyone react as they exclaimed in praise. Their eyes secretly looked at Mu Yunyao many times. She didn't know what was going on in her mind to actually be able to create so many patterns on her clothes. The crux of it was that these patterns moved their hearts even more when they saw them. They wished that they could do it themselves …
Come on.
Especially for those ladies, they only felt that their eyes were glued to their clothes, but they could not retract their gazes. At their age and status, many things were no longer convenient for them to say directly, and with the help of their clothes, they secretly pointed out the affection between husband and wife.
They had originally thought that Mu Yunyao had basked in the glory of recognizing this godmother, but now it seemed that they didn't even know who had done so?
At the start of the banquet, the various madams' attitudes towards Mu Yunyao and Su Qing became more and more intimate, almost as if they had a request written on their faces.
Mu Yunyao only pretended not to understand as she smiled and accompanied everyone to finish the feast.
By the time the banquet ended, nearly four hours had passed. After sending off the guests, Mu Yunyao accompanied Madam Jin back to the backyard. "Foster mother, it's really been hard on you today." As he spoke, he took her pulse.
"No matter how hard it is to be happy today, it is worth it. Furthermore, you helped me prepare it especially well, I don't feel tired at all. " Her clothes were not only light, they also kept them warm. The clothes she wore earlier made her body feel a chill, but after changing into the clothes Mu Yunyao had made, she felt much more comfortable. Even the shoes on her feet and the soles of her shoes felt much better.
With cotton wool and wormwood, it was soft and good for the body, so he didn't feel tired at all when he walked.
After finishing her pulse, Mu Yunyao's smile became a lot more relaxed: "My foster mother's pulse is normal. It seems like little brother is also happy today, so he's especially obedient."
"If he was so obedient every day, I would have woken up laughing even in my dreams. "Aiyo, look at this little brat. Just as I said that, he was already unwilling to accept it and started beating me up."
Mu Yunyao lightly touched Lady Jin's stomach, purposely carrying a bit of anger with her. "You have to be obedient and not cause a ruckus in your godmother's stomach. Otherwise, big sis won't listen to you."
It was unknown whether it was a coincidence or not, but the fetus that was in the midst of making a ruckus suddenly stopped moving, as if it had understood Mu Yunyao's words, causing Lady Jin to be pleasantly surprised.
Mu Yunyao smiled along with him for a while, but didn't stay for long. "My foster mother has been tired for the entire day, so you should quickly rest. I'll come back another day to accompany you."
"Alright, you and Sister Su are both exhausted. Hurry back and rest."
"Yao'er will take her leave."
On the way back, Su Qing was still unable to calm down. "Yao`er, I feel that when those madams saw the clothes you made for Master Cao and Lady Jin, they became especially warm to me. Could it be that these clothes can also have such a huge effect?"
Mu Yunyao couldn't help but smile. "They aren't looking at clothes, they're only looking at the identity clothes represent."
"What status does an ordinary set of clothes represent?" Su Qing was even more confused. A single set of clothes didn't have anything special about them. However, when a foster father and foster mother put their clothes together, it was just as Madam Fu had said, that they were in love with each other, symbolizing the love of a husband and wife. Those who were able to attend the banquet today were all the main wives of the various manors. Although they held the title of principal wives, they might not necessarily be from the mansion …
Which of the most favoured families doesn't have one or two concubines to block their way? "
"But can a set of clothes help them get a favor?" Su Qing also knew that there were many concubines in the back of a rich family. As the main wife, she had to constantly face a concubine that was more favored than her, which made people unhappy. Although they may not necessarily be able to win the favor of others, at the very least, they can reveal their identities. Only the wife of the legal wife can wear a set of clothes like this with her husband. " Moreover, most of the wives and concubines took a fancy to this identity. As for whether or not they doted on her, it didn't matter at all.
But at least half of it was nothing.
Su Qing nodded and sighed in her heart, "I used to think that those madams lived a good life, but now it seems that they don't live up to my expectations."
"The more powerful a person is, the more connections they have inside. Mother will get to know more in the future, and slowly, you'll understand."
"En, Yao'er, don't worry. If you don't understand, I will listen to more and slowly understand."
Mu Yunyao naturally knew that she was doing all this for her own sake. She only felt her eyes grow hot and couldn't help but throw herself into her arms. "Mom is so nice."
"Silly girl."
After returning home, Mu Yunyao felt rather tired, so she directly went to rest.
On the street, Steward Qin and the others were busy with their work until the sky turned completely dark and the hills of rice became empty bags. Gradually, no one came to pick up the congee.
The person who helped to make the porridge was so tired that he could barely walk. He just sat on the ground and did not want to move. They did not expect that a bowl of porridge would be so sought after by the commoners.
Yu Yi couldn't help but ask Supervisor Qin, "Tell me, could it be that all of Ziling City's citizens have come to collect the porridge?"
"I'm afraid it's more than that."
"More than that?"
"That's right. There are many merchants in the Tombal Mountain City. I just saw many well-dressed men come to collect their porridge. Those people don't seem to be lacking this bowl of porridge."
Yu Yi was even more confused. "Since you don't lack this bowl of porridge, why did you have to line up here to claim it?"
"Earlier, I told Your Highness that you should not only look at martial arts and loyalty, but also see if you have any brains. How do you feel when you see all the citizens of the city gathered together for the porridge today? "
"When I talk about it, other than the warmth in my heart, there's nothing special about it. Oh, there's also fatigue."
"Do you think that being tired is worth it?"
Yu Yi looked around at the citizens who had not dispersed and all of them had smiles on their faces. He didn't know why, but they still felt very tired and felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. "It's worth it."
Steward Qin smiled, "Then that's it. The person who came to collect the congee is not necessarily missing that bowl of congee, but rather wants to participate in such a scene. If my guess is right, then the Tombal Mountain City is going to become famous again."
The lively day had come to an end. The night passed, and the sun rose in the east. It was a new day.
This was the first New Year she spent with her mother ever since she was reborn. From Su Qing's point of view, she was with her every day, but from her point of view, it had been many years since she had spent with her mother.
As a result, this year they paid special attention and only hoped that they could have some good fortune during the new year. The following days would be smooth sailing for them. At this moment, a special gift was sent all the way to the capital through the fast horses.
