Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 389



~ I THINK HE MUST BE A RARE KIND PERSON ~

Not long after Mu Yunyao left the Palace, the Emperor sent a decree to the Su family residence. The contents were precisely what Mu Yunyao had requested from the Palace, allowing her to teach the embroidery needle technique in the Capital.

After setting up the incense table and saluting, Mu Yunyao respectfully received the Imperial Decree: “Thank you for your trouble, Eunuch. Please come to the parlor to drink tea.”

“Miss Mu is too courteous. After the Imperial Decree is passed on, this servant must return to the Palace to report.” The Eunuch in front of her was exceptionally courteous. The news spread the fastest within the Palace. This Miss Mu had received a reward from the Emperor, so everyone in the back would know about it.

Jin Lan hurriedly stepped forward and handed over the silver pouch. The Eunuch who delivered the decree received it with a smile, then politely took his leave.

The Eldest Madam, who had received the decree with her, looked very upset. Two days ago, she pushed out the woman taught by Su Yuyi according to the plan and asked her to replace the reputation of the Moon Palace Fairy. Unfortunately, the effect it had was not satisfactory.

Almost all the people who had forgotten the matter remembered the amazing dance on the platform in front of Huan Cai Pavilion that day. Many people compared the Moon Palace Fairy to the fairy from Ni Yun Fang’s opening times. They were all almost fighting over whose dance was more beautiful.

Some poor scholars made a living by drawing pictures of the beauties of the two fairies, and it was said that they were earning quite a bit of money every day. But recently, the dispute over the title of the first beauty of the two fairies had only intensified. The scholars had to be extra careful when drawing the picture. If they accidentally draw ugly, they would make a fool of themselves, and their signboard will be smashed directly onto the ground.

Mu Yunyao didn’t pay any attention to the Eldest Madam. After she paid her respects to the Imperial Decree, she called Jin Lan and the others over. She then carefully discussed with them the matter of teaching the embroidery needle technique.

She learned a lot from the previous spread of the embroidery needle technique. The first spread was in Jingling City, and Lady Jin had greatly helped. Later, she used Caiyue Pavilion to spread the embroidery needle technique throughout Jiangnan. In fact, there were already many people in the Capital who had mastered the embroidery techniques of Ni Yun Fang. After all, the Caiyue Pavilion was also in the Capital previously, and they also taught many people for a short time. But it was only halfway through, and then it was shut down by the Emperor.

After hearing Mu Yunyao’s words, Jin Lan was slightly surprised. “Miss, are you going to make all the embroidery needle techniques public?”

When she taught embroidery needle techniques before, Mu Yunyao had more or less retained some technique. For example, the embroidery of some patterns in Ni Yun Fang was much more beautiful than the others, which is the credit to these techniques.

Mu Yunyao nodded, “That’s right.” Caiyue Pavilion had already paved the way before, so she needed to teach some new things in order to make Ni Yun Fang have a better reputation than Caiyu Pavillion. She had retained some embroidery techniques at the beginning in order to teach them in the Capital. Since this was under the feet of the Emperor, so it naturally must be treated differently from other places.

“Miss, if there’s anything this servant can do, please instruct me.”

“I want to visit my adoptive mother tomorrow, and I’ll have to ask her for more help with this matter.”

“It was Lady Jin who presided over the propagation of the embroidery needle technique in Jingling City. With the help of the previous experiences, things will be much smoother this time.”

The Cao family’s residence was quite a distance away. After circling around two streets, it took them less than half an hour to arrive. Just as the carriage came to a stop, Yin Hong walked over quickly, “This servant greets Miss.”

Mu Yunyao got out of the carriage and couldn’t help but reveal a wisp of a smile when she saw Yin Hong. “Yin Hong, I haven’t seen you for a long time. Is everything alright?”

Yin Hong smiled and sighed. She felt Mu Yunyao’s usual attitude and felt sour in her heart, “In reply to Miss, everything is fine. I thank Miss for your concern. Madam has been very happy after receiving Miss’s letter. She got up early this morning and waited in the house. Please come in, Miss.”

Mu Yunyao followed Yin Hong inside. Just as she arrived at the residence’s entrance, she saw an old man walking out from within.

When the old man saw Mu Yunyao, he immediately stopped his steps. Frowning, he scanned her from head to toe. His eyes were filled with a picky expression. He then coldly snorted and said with his hands behind his back, “What, don’t you know to salute when you see your elders?”

Yin Hong’s expression changed as she whispered, “Miss, this is Master’s father-in-law, Lord Jin.”

Mu Yunyao raised her eyes and slightly took two steps forward before curtsying. “Greetings to the Old Master Jin.”

“Humph, disrespectful, don’t abide by etiquette, and only uses some tricks to gain fame and win back the hearts of the people. Such actions are truly unworthy of entering the Jin family’s territory!”

Mu Yunyao’s heart skipped a beat. She came to the Cao family this time to ask for Lady Jin’s help to teach embroidery needle techniques. She also wanted to find out who was in the court play with her through Cao Yunnian. However, she didn’t expect that before she had even seen Lady Jin, the second question had already been solved, “Old Master Jin, your cheeks are red. Your eyebrows and brow bone also has a scarlet tint. With a single glance, one can tell that virtual fire is vigorous. The most important thing for an old man is to calm his mind and temper himself, so that he can live for a long life.”

“What do you mean, are you cursing me? As a junior, are you going to talk to me like this?”

“Good medicine works against the sick, and good words work against the ear. The old man sshould be more aware of this truth when he is an official in Imperial Court. I hope you can live for a hundred years, right?” If this Old Master Jin was kind and understanding, she wouldn’t mind using him as an elder to please him. But now, he was clearly looking for trouble, so she doesn’t have to care about the so-called elder who can’t beat her.

“A bunch of nonsense. She’s so young, yet she’s still so charming. I wonder what kind of trick she used to win Cao yunnian’s favor. She is indeed a deep-minded person!”

“There is a good saying that if you have a Buddha in your heart, then all things are Buddha.But if there is filth in the heart, then all things are impure. I think that Master Cao has a kind face, so he must be a rare kind person.” Mu Yunyao replied with a smile.

The Old Master of the Jin family glared at Mu Yunyao. His words were choked in his throat as he pointed at Mu Yunyao with a furious voice, “Cunning words and charming expressions!”

“Old Master, do you haveanything else to say? If you don’t have any, I will enter the Cao family first.” Mu Yunyao purposely emphasized the words Cao family. Previously, this Old Master Jin had said that she wasn’t worthy of entering the Jin family’s territory, but this was the Cao family’s residence. He, a father-in-law, treated this place as the Jin family’s territory. However, whether Cao Yunnian agrees or not, she doesn’t know.

“You … Hmph, only women and lowly people are hard to raise. I won’t bother with you.”

Mu Yunyao’s smile deepened. “Then I’ll thank the Old Master. Please take care and walks slowly.”

After entering the residence and walking to the backyard, Yin Hong breathed a sigh of relief. “This servant was worried to death just now. Ever since Madam returned to the Capital, the Jin family had caused trouble many times, especially this Old Master of the Jin family. He is Master’s father-in-law, the one who commanded the family from within, and has caused the Madam to cry in anger for who knows how many times.”

“He’s just an old man.”

When they arrived at the inner courtyard, Lady Jin was sitting with the child in her arms. When she saw Mu Yunyao, a smile immediately appeared on her face. “Yunyao, I’ve been looking forward to seeing you.”

Mu Yunyao stepped forward with a smile. “Greetings, Mother. I’ve been busy these days and haven’t been able to visit you at your residence. Please don’t blame me.” Lady Jin handed her child to the wet nurse at the side and stepped forward to help Mu Yunyao up. “Quickly get up. Don’t be so overly courteous.”
