~ BORROW MU YUNYAO’S INFLUENCE ~

“Shut up!” The Eldest Madam looked over with a fierce gaze and muttered to Su Yuyi, “Didn’t Mother tell you? You had to be careful even when you were at home . What chills is not chilling . Putting in a nice word, he’s a minister . But in reality, he is just a slave raised by the Emperor . If the slave dared to intervene in the affairs of the master, it was already a great favor for the Emperor to not let his hand be chopped off . Your grandfather was good at everything, but he was too easily provoked . ”

“Grandfather was also very anxious . For all these years, Imperial Concubine De’s had served the Emperor . She could be described as a sacred favorite . Who would have thought that she would never have a child? If not, my grandfather’s family would not be in such a predicament . ”

“Alright, these things have already become a foregone conclusion . Now that there’s no way to change it, there’s no point in talking about it . ” The Eldest Madam raised a hand to rub her forehead and frowning fiercely . “Get someone to call your elder brother over . He previously warned me not to underestimate Mu Yunyao, but I didn’t take it to heart at the time . Now it seems like he should know something . ”

“Yes, Daughter will have someone to invite Elder Brother now . ”

Su Qingwu came over soon: “Greetings, Mother . ”

“Get up and sit down . Have you finished dinner?”

Su Qingwu nodded . “I’ve already finished . But I can see that the food on the table hasn’t been touched yet . Is Mother unable to eat them?”

The Eldest Madam’s face was full of worry, but she didn’t say anything and only shook her head slightly .

Su Yuyi, who was standing at the side, said, “Elder Brother, you saw it too . Today, Mother’s face was torn off and stepped onto the ground by Mu Yunyao . How could she still be in the mood to eat?”

“Mother, I just received news that the reason the Emperor summoned Mu Yunyao is that she took the lead in donating one hundred thousand taels of silver in Jingling City . ”

“How much did you say? One hundred thousand taels?” The Eldest Madam sat up straight with a fierce look in her eyes . “I heard Liu Mama and the rest say had said before that Mu Yunyao had taken the lead in donating silver in Jingling City . She also said that Mu Yunyao had bought food to feed the people of Jingling City . Doesn’t it mean that t that the local gentry and rich families in Jingling City had donated most of the silver?”

“It’s likely that Liu Mama and the rest who don’t understand the truth . ” When the Eldest Madam thought about it, she came to an understanding and fiercely slapped the table . “I understand . It must be Mu Yunyao’s scheme! Our Su family and the Li family have always been at loggerheads with each other . Li Munian is also an official in Jingling City . When Mu Yunyao wants to do something about it, it would be easy for her to deceive several servants . She must have purposely let Liu Mama and the others think that she just spent a little bit of silver, so when the servants sent the news over, I only listened for a bit and didn’t take it to heart . In fact, this is the day she was waiting for!”

Su Qingwu’s expression was calm, but his heart was pounding . “Mother, in the end, those underlings only have limited vision . Many things can’t be seen in the long run, so there will inevitably be some errors when they are reported . Today, the Emperor rewarded Mu Yunyao, and tomorrow her good reputation would spread throughout the entire Capital . ”

Su Yuyi’s face turned ugly, “A hundred thousand silver taels, that Mu Yunyao is really willing to give it up . ”

The Eldest Madam thought for a moment and asked, “The opening of Bi Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo only took a little more than a year, yet she has already earned that much silver?”

“You might not know about the other, Mothers . But you should remember the Spring Embroidery Workshop? Back then, the Spring Embroidery Workshop (Chun Embroidery Workshop) had Cai Yue Pavilion as its opponent, and it was still gaining gold every day . What’s more, Ni Yun Fang was a one-of-a-kind place, and none of the other shop and restaurant dared to try their luck, especially Bu Xian Luo . ”

The Eldest Madam gently folded her fingers as if she wants to hold something in her hand: “Yuyi, you’re in the wrong regarding what happened that day . Tomorrow, you’ll bring a gift to your Cousin Yunyao to apologize . ”

“Yes . I know, Mother . ” Su Yuyi hesitated for a moment, but she still agreed .

The Eldest Madam raised her hand and caressed her hair . With a pained expression, she said, “I know that you must have felt wrong to let you bow your head to that country bumpkin, and it would definitely be unfair to you . But for the sake of your future, you must do this! Tomorrow, even if Mu Yunyao were to make things difficult for you in front of others, you have to bear with it . My daughter must be gentle and kind, understand?”

“Mother, you want me to use Mu Yunyao’s influence to spread my name?” Su Yuyi asked in a testing manner .

“That’s right . Your elder brother said just now that tomorrow, Mu Yunyao’s reputation will spread throughout the Capital . It’s the perfect time for you to take advantage of the wind to push yourself up . ” The Eldest Madam’s dim eyes finally revealed a smile . She would come and take care of her after she was done using her power .

Su Yuyi nodded . The unwillingness in her eyes slowly disappeared and was replaced with a kind smile . Under the light of the candle flame, a trace of light could be seen in her beautiful eyes . It was like the bright moonlight, reflected on a Chinese osmanthus flower, captivating the soul with her mesmerizing beauty . “Mother, don’t worry . I know what I should do .

The Eldest Madam raised her lips, “Mother knows that you are unwilling, but it is worth it to be able to stand out in the Mid-Autumn Festival . No matter how much you handle, it is worthwhile . There is also one more thing, Mu Yunyao’s reputation will spread throughout the Capital, and at the same time, Meng Yanran’s name will become extremely bad . So, don’t associate with her in the future .

“Yes, Daughter understands . ”

“Qingwu,” the Eldest Madam looked at Su Qingwu, “You and the Third Prince have a very great relationship, and the Third Prince can speak with the Grand Princess . Now that the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet is approaching, you should help out a bit more . ”

“Mother, Grand Princess Yi De is not an ordinary person . She was able to accompany the Emperor on his journey from an unknown prince to an overlord . Her scope of vision could not be compared to ordinary people . If you truly wish to push my sister to the front of the Grand Princess, then don’t do too much, or it will backfire . ”

The Eldest Madam thought for a moment and wrinkled her forehead, “I naturally know about what you have said . However, if she can’t stand out among so many noble young ladies in the Capital, how could Grand Princess Yi De pay attention to Yuyi?”

“With my little sister’s appearance, just sitting there without saying or doing anything is enough to amaze everyone . ”

Hearing Su Qingwu’s praise, the smile in Su Yuyi’s eyes intensified . “Elder Brother, I’ve heard you talk about the Third Prince several times . I wonder what the other person is like?”

“His personality is firm and resolute, and his visions are much wider than ordinary people . In the end, he has been raised up by Grand Princess Yi De herself for a period of time . Many thoughts and insights that he had expressed were extremely admirable . ”

Su Yuyi couldn’t help but sigh . “Not many people can get my Elder Brother’s praise . If only I had the chance to meet this third prince . ”

The Eldest Madam turned around and looked at her reproachfully, “Yuyi, is that really something you can say?”

“Mother . ”Su Yuyi hurriedly stepped forward and took the Eldest Madam’s arm, “I was only casually saying it . Who told let Elder Brother praise the Third Prince so highly?”
