Chapter 172

Bu Xian Lou During The Lantern Festival

Eunuch Li, who used to see the bustling in the Capital, was fascinated by the beautiful scenery ahead of him .

“Bu Xian Luo, it really lives up to its reputation . It’s beautiful . It’s really too beautiful!”

Mu Yunyao, who was wearing a moon-white dress, walked over slowly . The various lanterns shone upon her dress, causing her clothes to appear slightly red . Her originally beautiful face now looked even more gorgeous and adding a bit of national beauty . In particular, there was a flower in the hair and was slightly shaking as she walked . It was falling beside her ear like a divine brush, adding a bit of splendor to her movement .

“Greetings, adoptive father . Greetings, Eunuch Li . ”

Eunuch Li praised . If Miss Mu were to come to the Capital one day, it would arouse the jealousy of countless noble young ladies . Her disposition was graceful and elegant temperament, and she was indeed beautiful and fresh . “Miss Mu is too polite . I came to Bu Xian Luo today and realized that the past Lantern Festival was all vain . ”

“The stanzas are all empty . ”

“The Lord praises like this, really makes Yunyao flattered . Please come in, and have tea . ”

In Jin Xiu Garden, only elegant Si Cha (tea maker) were there, unlike other places that had dancers and troupes invited to attract the eyes of the people .

However, no one thought that they were thin and weak, but instead, they had a unique atmosphere, which makes people feel that they are more elegant than others .

Mu Yunyao led the way to the azure stone stage . There were curtains around the area and a stove in the middle . Every seat was covered with a light fur cushion, allowing people to enjoy the beautiful scenery to their heart’s content while not feeling the slightest bit cold .

With an esteemed guest present, Mu Yunyao naturally made the tea herself . Eunuch Li looked at her every move like flowing water . He couldn’t help but look straight at her: “No wonder my master was so full of praise for Miss Mu’s craftsmanship skills . Not only Miss Mu’s embroidery and needlework superb, her tea-making skills are also excellent . ”

“Thank you for the praise, My Lord . ” Mu Yunyao brought the brewed teacup in front of the two and lightly raised her hand, “Please . ” Eunuch Li carefully opened the teacup, anticipating to see the magical sight of plants and flowers in the cup that Xu Li had praised before, but he didn’t expect to see the leaves in the cup unfold . Under the light of the lanterns around him, it seemed like a silent landscape painting . He was about to observe carefully, but he saw the leaves spread gently, and the landscape painting gradually melted away, causing one to be unable to refrain from sighing along with it .

“Miss Mu is truly amazing . Her skills in brewing tea have improved once again, right?” The landscape was naturally more difficult than flowers and plants .

“Just a small trick, nothing grand . ”

“Miss Mu is too modest . ” If this were just a small trick, then those ladies of the Capital who proclaimed themselves to be the most gifted and talented would probably die from shame . Eunuch Li measured the tea broth, which was clear and bright like a piece of jade . He took a small sip and felt the rich and sweet fragrance, the slight bitterness in his mouth, a little bit of sweetness in his throat, and the lingering fragrance in his mouth . “Good tea, it’s really great tea! Miss Mu may give me some alone, and let me have it too . ”

Mu Yunyao smiled slightly and said, “it’s cold in winter, I’ll have to trouble you to come all the way here . Your portion has naturally prepared before . ”

“Thank you, Miss Mu . ”

“My Lord, you are too polite . ”

After finishing the tea, Mu Yunyao withdrew, and Cao Yunnian continued to lead Eunuch Li to admire the beautiful scenery of Jin Xiu Garden .

When she returned home, Nan’er was carrying a small orange lantern and playing crazily in the courtyard . When he saw Mu Yunyao, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, “Greetings, Miss . Madam is currently accompanying Lady Jin in the hall to speak . Miss can directly head over . ”

“Be careful . Don’t run into others . ”

“Yes, I will bring Ah Mao and Li’er to play in a nearby corner . ”

“Go . ”

After visiting Lady Jin and accompanying her for a while, Mu Yunyao finally relaxed after sending them off . She couldn’t help but rub her forehead . “This day is really exhausting . ”

“Does Yao’er feel uncomfortable?”

“It’s nothing . Mother, you don’t have to worry . You can rest for the night . ”

“I left some food for you, and I’ll bring it to you when it’s warm . Eat some more before you go to rest . ”

Mu Yunyao held her cheeks as she looked at Su Qing, “Mother, tomorrow is your birthday, right? We will book two tables at Jin Xiu Garden . Even if we don’t invite anyone, it will still be lively . ”

Su Qing quickly shook her head, “No need . I don’t know the exact date of my birth . Although I don’t remember everything that happened when I was young, I know that I’m not my parents’ biological child . This birthday is only the day they found me . It’s meaningless to live with it . ”

Hearing up to this point, Mu Yunyao felt a little sad . “If Mother said like that, then it’s fine . Tomorrow, I’ll personally cook and make yummy food for you to eat . ”

Although Su Qing was somewhat at a loss, she was already used to it and did not think much of it . “Then I must think carefully about what to eat tomorrow . It will not be easy for you to cook next time . ”

“Alright, let Mother think about it . As long as you can think of it, I will be able to do it . I definitely won’t disappoint you . ”

“It’s getting late . You should hurry up and eat something before going back to rest, to avoid any recurrence of the cold . ”

“Yes . ”

After finishing her meal, Mu Yunyao returned to her room . When she reached the door and saw the darkness in the room, she suddenly remembered that Yue Wang should still be inside .

“Jin Lan, you’ve been guarding in the outer room for the past few days, and you haven’t had a good rest . Now that I’ve completely recovered, you can go back to your room to rest . ”

“Miss, please be extra careful at night . Don’t open the window tonight . ”

“Alright, I’ll go in myself . You can leave now . ”

Seeing Mu Yunyao’s assured expression, Jin Lan knew that there was no point in speaking any further and passed the lantern over after answering .

She entered the room, and before she could move forward, the candle was light .

Only now did Mu Yunyao realize that Yue Wang was actually sitting at the table, “It’s all my fault for not being considerate . Please forgive me, Fourth Master . ” Since she was not in her room, she would naturally not light the lamp at night . Since Yue Wang was here, he could only sit quietly in the darkness .

“Nothing, did Eunuch Li and the rest leave?”

“He should still be enjoying the scenery in Jin Xiu Garden . ”

Yue Wang nodded his head, his fingers moved slightly, “Then I can only stay a little longer . ”

Mu Yunyao didn’t think it, but she actually feels a little uncomfortable now . Mu Yunyao sat on a chair at the side and suddenly thought of a question: “Does Fourth Master have anything to eat tonight?”

Yue Wang was silent, and the expression on his face seemed to become even colder .

“If that’s the case… Wang Ye, please wait for a moment . I will go to the kitchen and come back soon . ”

At this moment, there was no one in the kitchen . Fortunately, Mu Yunyao had already gotten used to cooking at Xiayan Village, so she quickly lit a fire and added water to the pot .

Time was running out, and she didn’t have time to make anything delicate, so she could only cook the noodles .

After waiting for about half an hour, King Fu heard the sound of footsteps from outside the door . The look in his eyes unconsciously softened for a moment . “It’s already too late, and I don’t know what to do while I’m in a hurry, so I simply cooked a bowl of noodles . Please don’t mind, Fourth Master . ”
