Chapter 269

~ MOTHER AND SON DISAGREEMENT ~

The Eldest Madam patted Su Yuyi’s hand in satisfaction, “After today’s incident, the Old Madam’s attitude has become clear . She doesn’t take this granddaughter to heart, and she might even be full of disgust . Later, she sent her far away, that is, you didn’t have to dirty your hands because of such a person . ”

Su Yuyi asked out the doubt in her heart, “Mother, I still have one thing I don’t understand . You said that Lin Yuhan is not stupid . Could I believe what she’s saying?”

“Do you really think that she was forced by Meng Yanran to fake her injuries? You should have seen clearly what kind of person Lin Yuhan is after such a long time . She was like a dog that the Old Madam kept by her feet . Usually, she would be used to accompany the Old Madam to calm her mind . If there were people The Old Madam didn’t like, she would let them out and bite them off . Anyway . Lin Yuhan’s identity was an official servant, so she might not as good as the servant who signed the indenture contract . She did not dare to leave the Su family, but rather she couldn’t leave the Su family . So she must follow everything the Old Madam says . Look, are there any better dogs than she does?”

Su Yuyi’s eyes trembled as she secretly understood the Eldest Madam’s meaning . Lin Yuhan knew about medicine, which could be used to save a person, and naturally, it could be used to harm a person . The reason the Old Madam was raising her was that she probably wanted to make use of this fact: “Then, from Mother’s perspective, does the Old Madam have any instructions today?”

The Eldest Madam smiled and asked, “What do you think?”

Su Yuyi looked into the Eldest Madam’s eye and slightly nodded her head . The curve of her head was indiscernible . If it wasn’t for the Old Madam’s orders, how could her mother be so sure of herself that the Old Madam dislikes Mu Yunyao, her granddaughter?

The Eldest Madam continued to laugh and did not directly answer Su Yuyi’s question, “All these years, Mother has been in charge of the backyard, although it looks bright and beautiful, the pain behind it is nothing out of the ordinary . The most important thing is to take care of the Old Madam . You also know that your father’s filial piety is important to him . Even though his official position is now prominent, he is still obedient to the Old Madame . When the Old Madam was young, she had experienced many things with the Old Master . Even though she is old and doesn’t like to ask about the family’s affairs, she knew everything about the big things and the little things that happened here . ”

Su Yuyi thought about it for a moment and nodded, “Mother, I collected a few pearls from the Southern Ocean a few days ago . They are plump, round, and purple in color . It was quite rare to turn brightly under candlelight . I want to make a mark for Grandmother and send it to her tomorrow . ”

“Alright, your filial piety is the only one in this residence . Other people can’t even compare to it . ”

“Then, Daughter will go down and prepare it . ”

“Go ahead and light some candles so as not to hurt your eyes . ”

“Yes . ”

After sending Su Yuyi off, the smile on Eldest Madam’s face faded a little, and she called the mama by her side and asked, “Where is Master?”

“Reporting to Madam, it’s the Sixth Madame’s birthday today . Master has sent someone over to pass the message that he was resting at Xianghe Garden tonight . ”

The Eldest Madam nodded . “Tomorrow morning, I will send some of Old Master’s favorite meals, and I’ll also give Liu Yiniang two pieces of silk as a reward . During this time, she took good care of Old Master . ”

“Yes, Ma’am . ”

“Go and call the young master . ”

Soon, Su Qingwu arrived in front of the Eldest Madam . “Greetings, Mother . ”

The Eldest Madam raised her head, looking at Su Qingwu with a cold gaze . After a long moment, she said, “Qingwu, Mother thought that you always had a sense of propriety when doing things, but who would’ve thought that you’ve actually committed such a mistake today!” Su Qingwu listened to Mu Yunyao’s words and continued to stay in the small Lu Yi Pavillion instead of listening to her for retreat, which made her deeply bothered .

Su Qingwu stood up, her handsome face a tinge of paleness, but the Eldest Madam was so angry that she didn’t notice anything unusual . “Mother, I don’t approve of your actions in today’s matters . ”

The Eldest Madam raised her eyebrows, “Do you think I shouldn’t have suppressed this matter today? Could it be that you want me to let Yanran down for Mu Yunyao, a girl from the countryside, and even make trouble with the Meng family?”

“It’s obvious that Miss Meng is making trouble out of nothing . Mother only needed justice, and even if the matter were to spread to the Meng family, Grand Preceptor Meng wouldn’t be ignorant and blame you for the mistake . But if you continue to suppress things like this, the situation might become unmanageable . ”

The Eldest Madam could not help but chuckle . “Can’t you clean it? Could it be that a little Mu Yunyao could defy the heavens? Qingwu, I know that you’ve once sent out orders for His Majesty in Jingling City, so you can’t help but think highly of Mu Yunyao . But in the end, she’s just a silly little girl . Even if she is recognized as an adopted daughter by Cao yunnian, what can she do?”

Su Qingwu didn’t know how to explain it to the Eldest Madam, but after interacting with her several times, he had a faint feeling in his heart that Mu Yunyao was definitely not an ordinary woman .

She had her own constitution and plans for doing things, and every step forward she took was very steady . One must know that a year and a half ago, she was barely penniless . Madam Li also almost sold her as a plaything . But now, she had received a reward from the Emperor, and her reputation was known by everyone in Jiangnan . I don’t know how many people are grateful to her because of the embroidery technique . Bu Xian Lou and Ni Yun Fang are becoming more and more famous . Her reputation was rising day by day . It wouldn’t be long before they come directly into the capital . How could such a woman endure such humiliation?

Seeing Su Qingwu’s silence, and his expression looks very solemn, there was a hint of irritability in the Eldest Madam’s heart: “Qingwu, aren’t you taking this matter too seriously? Now that it’s settled, there’s no point in overthinking it . ”

Perhaps it was because she felt that her tone was too stiff, then she brought a trace of a smile on her face as she asked gently, “You’ve been out with the Third Prince for nearly two months . Is everything going well outside?”

Su Qingwu nodded . “In reply to Mother, everything is going well . There weren’t too many twists and turns . ”

“I can see that you don’t look too good . Just rest for a few more days after you return home . Presumably, the Emperor won’t let you go back to work in a hurry . ”

“Yes, I understand . ”

“Mm, let’s go down and have a rest . ”

After returning to his own courtyard, Su Qingwu took off his outer garment and looked at the bloodstained inner garment . The attendant hurriedly brought some medicinal powder over and helped Su Qingwu change the gauze covering his arm .

“Young Master, the wound on your hand has split open again . Please be more careful, don’t touch it again . ”

“It’s okay . Go out and find out if any doctors in Jiyue Pavilion? If there is one, then ask him to come over to my place after helping Mu Yunyao take a look at her . If they don’t have, you’ll find a doctor to take a look at me, and after I’m done, you’ll send it over to Jiyue Pavilion . ”

The attendant didn’t understand why Su Qingwu was paying so much attention to Jiyue Pavilion . However, Master’s affairs weren’t something that servants like him could interrupt . He could only bow and allow others to inquire about it .

Inside Jiyue Pavilion, Si Hua’s hand was smeared with medicinal oil as she helped Mu Yunyao massage the wound on her waist . Although she had only beaten two strokes, their strength was full, leaving behind a large bruise mark . If she did not take advantage of the moment to disperse the blood clot, she might not even be able to stand up tomorrow .

Mu Yunyao’s head was covered in a cold sweat from the pain . Su Qing sat by her side and used a handkerchief to wipe it away . There are tears in Su Qing’s eyes all the time, but she was afraid that Mu Yunyao might be distracted and worried about her, so she held back .

Jin Lan walked in and asked softly, “Madam, Miss, Young Master sent someone to inquire if we have a doctor?”
