Chapter 258
"The madame's mood fluctuated too greatly yesterday, and today there was a slight headache. She told the madame and the young miss to return and take a good rest if they came. The family does not need to be so formal."
"Mother has a headache, did you ask the doctor to look at it?" Su Qing asked.
"I've already asked some people to take a look at it. They say it's not a big problem, just drink a couple of sets of soup to recuperate." Wen mama answered respectfully.
Su Qing nodded, "Then I am relieved."
Although she didn't receive permission to enter to pay her respects, Mu Yunyao accompanied Su Qing to pay her respects outside the courtyard before returning to the United Moon Restaurant.
Ever since the Unenviable Pavilion opened, Su Qing also started to like drinking tea. The Mani Moon Pavilion had a lotus pond in its courtyard, and the scenery was still rather pleasing to the eye. Thus, tea set was arranged in a small pavilion. After Mu Yunyao finished brewing the tea, she gave the tea cup to Su Qing and then took the thick booklet to read carefully, "Yesterday's time was rushed, and my luggage was carried back a bit slower, so I didn't send you the gift. If you continue to delay today, it won't be justified.
"Come."
"Yes, miss."
Very quickly, Senior Servant Zhou walked over. "Greetings, Madam and Miss."
Mu Yunyao raised her head. "Senior Zhou, you know the situation in the manor better than me and my mother, so there are some things that still need your guidance. "Jin Lan, get someone to bring up the gift my mother prepared."
Soon, a series of boxes were placed in the yard.
Mu Yunyao stood up and gestured for Senior Servant Zhou to come forward. "Senior Servant see, these are all prepared to honor the old lady, is there anything inappropriate about them?"
She had seen many good things from the first wife, but now that she saw these boxes, she felt that she hadn't seen enough. "Madame and Miss have prepared them extremely well, so the old madam will definitely like them."
"Zhou mama is very knowledgeable. Since you said it's alright, then it's natural that you're right. Jin Lan will arrange for someone to send it to grandmother." After she finished speaking, Mu Yunyao pointed to something else. "These are for Aunty and Second Aunt, and the rest are for the brothers and sisters of the estate. What do you think, Grandma?"
Zhou mama looked carefully at the gifts and couldn't help but secretly praise them in her heart. She didn't know how Mu Yunyao's heart had grown, but she couldn't find any mistakes in these gifts. Moreover, they were extremely exquisite and precious.
"Jinlan and Jinqiao have gone to deliver some things to grandmother. As for the rest of the places, I'd like to ask Senior Servant Zhou to call some people to help send some things over."
The expression in Senior Servant Zhou's eyes changed as she looked somewhat troubled. "This …"
Mu Yunyao slightly raised her brows, "Could there be something wrong with it?"
"There is nothing wrong with that. It is because the gifts prepared by Madam and Miss are too precious. This servant is afraid of any mishaps."
"What are you saying, mama? I heard from Senior Servant Qi that you're also an old man in the manor. Earlier, you were highly regarded by Eldest Aunt, so what could happen if you gave her some gifts?"
Zhou mama thought for a moment and couldn't help but nod. "This servant will immediately go and arrange it."
"Alright."
After arranging the gifts, Mu Yunyao's expression became even more relaxed. She sat in the pavilion and accompanied Su Qing to drink her tea, "How does mother feel about this tea?"
"My mouth doesn't have your spirit. No matter how subtle the taste is, I can taste the difference. I just feel that there is less sweetness when compared to the water in Ziling City."
Previously, the water used to brew tea in the No Envy Pavilion was all from the lush spring water, so naturally, the water there would be much better to drink than in other places. However, there are a few springs far and wide renowned in the capital.
Su Qing quickly shook her head, "Why are you being so troublesome? In addition, the cost of fetching water from the mash spring was not small. Everything in the capital is expensive, so fetching water is naturally not cheap. If you can save some, then save some. "
Previously, Mu Yunyao had given the majority of the silvers earned by Not Envy Pavilion and Nebula Workshop to the citizens of Ziling City. Those gifts were more precious than the previous, and had cost an unknown amount of silvers. Mu Yunyao naturally guessed what Su Qing was worried about, but she couldn't say the money she earned from the salt exchange. Otherwise, she might have to stay awake all night, "Mother, you don't have to worry so much.
You can't spend all of it. "
"I just feel that it's a bit of a pity." Su Qing also knew that she was used to hardships. Now that she had money, she could not bear to waste it. Thus, when she saw so many precious gifts for the people who had harmed her daughter in her previous life, her heart was already in pain.
Mu Yunyao's face blossomed into a dazzling smile. Smiling, she said in a soft voice, "Mother, don't worry. Since we've already sent the things out, we'll naturally be able to get them back from other places."
She hated those people even more than Su Qing. If she was going to give them gifts, she wanted to get some Blood Seal Throat poison. Naturally, she would not waste money.
Su Qing sighed, "Let's not talk about these things. If we continue, we won't even have the mood to drink tea anymore."
Not long after she finished speaking, Si Qin walked in and reported, "Madam, Miss, Eldest Miss just sent word that Miss Meng from the Grand Preceptor's estate would be here as a guest. I've heard a lot about you, Miss. Please go to the East Courtyard."
Mu Yunyao slightly raised her eyes. "The Grand Preceptor's estate's Miss Meng?" Meng Yanran?
Su Qing was slightly nervous, "Yao'er, do you know who that Miss Meng is?"
Her name is Meng Yanran, the first wife's niece, born in the Grand Preceptor's estate. Her father is the Minister of Rites, her grandfather is a first rank Grand Preceptor, and her grandmother is a princess of Qingning.
Hearing that the other party had such an illustrious identity, Su Qing became even more worried in her heart. "Yao'er, why do I feel that this person has come with ill intentions?"
Of course not! However, Mu Yunyao didn't want to say it out loud, as she worried her mother, "Mother, don't worry. It's nothing important. Sooner or later, I will have to come into contact with him. It's good to see him now. "
When they were in the Tomb City, although there were some twists and turns, most of them were filled with good will. Suddenly coming to the capital, Su Qing felt that every step she took, she had to be careful of nails pricking her feet.
"That's true, but you still have to be careful. After all, that Miss Meng has a high status. If you anger her and want to punish you, no one will speak up for us …" Mu Yunyao could not help but smile. Although their statuses were not worth mentioning in front of the Su Family, in the end, she had received rewards from the Emperor several times, and with the Nebula Pavilion and the Not Envy Pavilion, no matter how arrogant and despotic Meng Yanran was, she did not dare to go too far. After all, no matter how illustrious the Meng Family was, they would not be able to cover it up with a single move.
Not to mention that the Meng family and the Su family were different. The most favored young miss of the Su family was Su Yuyi, and her nurturing and care for her had reached the point where the entire family was on equal footing with Meng Yanran. Mother, you can rest assured. I guarantee that you will return in full shadow. "
