Chapter 222

The Fierce Woman is Afraid of Bullying Others

Yue Wang suppressed his emotions for a while before the coldness around his body subsided a little bit . “It’s nothing . Uncle Qin, have you cleaned up all the jewelry that I picked previously?”

“It’s all been cleaned up . ”

“Then you can have someone send it over to Yunyao . ”

“This …” Steward Qin blinked his eyes doubtfully, “Aren’t Wang Ye going to deliver it personally?”

Yue Wang fell silent . The fire that had been burning in his heart seemed to be thrown down by a basin of ice water, and he felt his entire body turn cold: “Uncle Qin, I seemed to have done something wrong . ”

Looking at the look of Yue Wang, Steward Qin felt a little emotional . It seems that Miss Mu and Wang Ye are at odds . Who wouldn’t be troubled by love when they are young: “Wang Ye, there are many things that this old servant doesn’t understand, but I have listened to the words in the book and said that this fierce woman is afraid of bullying others . Now that Miss Mu and Madam Su are dependent on each other, and it really isn’t easy for Miss Mu to make a family business in Jingling City . Besides, there is a big gap between her identity and Wang Ye . She should inevitably be more cautious . If Your Highness really cares about Miss Mu, you should be extra patient . ”

Are fierce girls afraid of being pestered?

A trace of unease flashed through Yue Wang’s eyes: “Uncle Qin is usually very busy, and he actually has the time to read the book?”

A trace of uncomfortableness flashed in Wang Yue’s eyes very quickly: “Uncle Qin is very busy on weekdays, so is there still have time to read the notebook?”

“If you take a look at this occasionally, you can learn a lot from it . ” Steward Qin replied quickly with a smile .

“Yes . ” Yue Wang nodded his head noncommittally .

Steward Qin sent someone to bring the box of jewelry: “Wang Ye, I’ll leave this jewelry here . If you have time, please deliver it to Miss Mu personally . ” With that, he did not wait for Yue Wang to reply and turned to leave .

Yue Wang opened the box and looked at the neatly placed accessories inside . He couldn’t help but to reach out and pick up a White Jade Orchid Flower hairpin . The hairpin was white and glossy without blemish, making him feel that this hairpin was compatible with Mu Yunyao flawlessly .

In the next few days, news of Yangzhou City came one after another . With the orders of the Emperor, Li Yuanyi finished investigating the case of Yangzhou City’s salt tax and began to check Yangzhou City’s salt tax without any rest . At this time, Qi Ming naturally pushed right in front of Li Yuan’s eyes .

When Mu Yunyao heard the news about Yangzhou City from Liu Liang, she instructed coldly, “Have Qi Ming take out the letter I gave him and show it to Li Yuanyi . That letter contained the First Prince’s handwriting, so he will naturally think of a way to erase Qi Ming’s trace of the salt tax case and protect him . ”

Since she dared to let Qi Ming continue to stay in Yangzhou City, she naturally had a way to protect him . After all, losing someone like him was too much of a waste .

“Yes, I’ll send a message to Qi Ming right away . ”

Mu Yunyao nodded, and she can hear Su Qing’s voice came from the door . She quickly looked at Liu Liang and said, “You can go now, and don’t let Mother see you or else she’ll worry . ”

After Liu Liang left, Su Qing walked into the room . Mu Yunyao hurriedly stood up to welcome her . “Mother, why have you come back so early today?” Ever since Su Qing sensed that Mu Yunyao’s mood wasn’t right the last time, she had spent less time in New Ni Yun Fang and did her best to find more time to accompany Mu Yunyao . “Yunyao, Mother originally didn’t want to ask too much, but looking at your expression, you seem to have a heavy heart . Just what exactly happened here?”

“Where is something? Mother, you are just thinking too serious . ”

“Don’t try to hide anything from me . If you don’t know your daughter very well, don’t tell me you’re a mother . Mother has seen you grow up, so naturally, I can tell whether you have worries or not . ” Su Qing looked at Mu Yunyao worriedly, “You were so upset for a while before, but the next time was much better, and it started to be like this again two days ago . Your expression was more solemn than the last time . What happened?”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but bite her lips . “Mother, I don’t know how to say it, but my heart feels very stuffy . What do you think of Fourth Master Ning?”

“Fourth Master Ning?” Su Qing’s heart skipped a beat . She suddenly thought of the cloak Mu Yunyao was wearing when she came back last time . “You … . could it be that … you like Fourth Master Ning?”

Mu Yunyao hurriedly shook her head, “Mother, what are you thinking? There is no such thing!”

Seeing Mu Yunyao retort so urgently, Su Qing’s heart sunk even more . “If that’s not the case, then so be it . Why are your reactions so big?”

Mu Yunyao clenched her fist as a sharp pain came from her palm . Only then did she remember that her previous wound hadn’t healed at all . “I was just scared by what Mother said . That Fourth Master Ning is so much older than me, how could I like him …”

Su Qing couldn’t help but nod her head, “That’s true … … Although I don’t know the true identity of that Fourth Master Ning, I think it’s much more valuable than us . Furthermore, with his age, he should already have a wife in his family . Yao’er, don’t think about it . You should refrain yourself . ”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but chuckle . She didn’t know how Yue Wang would react if he knew that Mother was thinking about him this way . “Mother, don’t worry . I won’t . I’m prepared to guard you for the rest of my life . ”

After carefully looking at Mu Yunyao’s look and seeing no trace of abnormality in her expression, Su Qing couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief, “Yao’er, you’re speaking nonsense . How could Mother possibly accompany you for a lifetime? It’s better to find someone you can rely on . ”

Mu Yunyao leaned on Su Qing’s shoulder . A light slowly flickered in her eyes . “Mother, how did you marry Father back then?”

“Your father and I got to know each other by chance . When I went up the mountain to chop firewood, I accidentally sprained my foot and coincidentally met your father, who searched for medicinal herbs in the back mountain . He sent me home, and we got to know each other that way . Later, he invited a matchmaker to my house to propose marriage . The betrothal gift was quite rich, which naturally became . . . , and there’s nothing to say . ”

Mu Yunyao raised her head to look at Su Qing’s expression . With a puzzled expression, she asked, “Since Mother feels that there’s nothing to say, why is it that when you mention father, the corners of her lips are all smiling?”

Su Qing was stunned . She couldn’t help but raise her hand to touch the corner of her lips before realizing the smile on her lips . “Mother can’t say it, but when I think about your father, I can’t help but want to laugh . Although he isn’t in this world anymore, he is still in Mother’s heart . ”

Mu Yunyao didn’t understand . “Mother, if you don’t marry Father, perhaps you will find a better place to stay, and there won’t be any embarrassment and torture from Grandmother over the years . Haven’t you ever regretted it?”

Su Qing couldn’t help but caress Mu Yunyao’s hair . Her eyes filled with love as she said, “You silly girl, how can there be anything perfect in this world? Although I’ve been troubled by my mother-in-law for many years because I married your father, your father treats me very well . Moreover, we have such a precious daughter like you . What is there to be unsatisfied about it?”

“Mother, if you knew that there would be a mother-in-law who would make things difficult for you before you got married, would you still choose to marry Father?”

“Mother actually has heard of it a long time ago . ”

“You’ve heard of it a long time ago?” Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but be shocked .

“Yes, your grandmother’s reputation spread far and wide, and before I got married, there were quite a few people who advised me . But seeing that your father spent so much effort only to see me and even worked hard for months to save more money to buy a silver hairpin for me, I felt like it was nothing . ” Su Qing said with a smile .
