Chapter 290

~ THE ELDEST MADAM TELLS THE OLD STORY ~

These ladies all had their own embroiderer ladies in their residence . Ni Yun Fang’s reputation is too prominent, and it also has the golden signboard awarded by the Emperor . Ni Yun Fang was also never used to doing business with commoners . All those who can buy it from Ni Yun Fang are well-known, and only such clothes are suitable for their status and dignity .

Moreover, the present Mu Yunyao gave at New Years’ was truly breathtaking . Just thinking of wearing such beautiful embroidery on their body caused them to feel comfortable from the inside out .

“If Ni Yun Fang is about to open up in the Capital, then what about Bu Xian Luo? The Emperor was praising the Lotus Fragrance Dew from Bu Xian Luo . When did we have the good fortune to have a taste of this?”

“It is said that very few people can really make it to the sixth floor of Bu Xian Luo . There are quite a several tea masters in the Capital . When Bu Xian Luo opens, perhaps those people will be the first to rush in and experience the unique method of brewing tea . ”

For a moment, the people at the banquet surrounded Mu Yunyao and began to talk, leaving the brilliant Su Yuyi behind .

While Mu Yunyao was speaking with the other ladies, she has also used the corner of her eyes to observe the Eldest Madam and Su Yuyi’s expressions . Seeing that their smiling faces were especially gloomy, she couldn’t help but secretly raise her lips .

As the conversation ended and the banquet came to an end, the ladies were secretly praising them in their hearts . They had thought that Su Qing and Mu Yunyao were like the rumors, born in the countryside and wouldn’t be able to show off their skills in public . However, after today’s conversation, their impression of the two of them changed drastically .

Although Su Qing did not say much, she still wore a smile on her face . Her manners and actions were elegant and proper . Occasionally, she would bring out a sentence or two, and she dealt with them with extreme propriety .

Mu Yunyao was even more astonishing . Later on, everyone gathered around her to talk . If she were any an ordinary person, she would have already appeared to be in a fluster, but she was neither dull nor slow . Her words and laughter could take care of everyone’s feelings, and she didn’t let anyone feel like they were being ignored and feel unhappy . Even those, who had not made a sound and quietly waited for the end of the banquet, had attracted by Mu Yunyao’s clear and beautiful voice . The time unknowingly passed while listening to her talking about the clothes in Ni Yun Fang, as well as some small tips on dressing and matching .

The guests left one after another, and Mu Yunyao’s reputation spread along with them .

Su Yuyi followed the Eldest Madam back to her own courtyard after seeing off all the guests . She threw the glass cup on the table onto the ground .

Looking at the fragments on the ground, the Eldest Madam could not help but frown . “What are you doing?”

Su Yuyi’s face filled with a wronged expression, hearing the Eldest Madam’s question, her eyes had already started glistening with tears: “Mother, today you said that you would make a good reputation for myself, but in the end, Mu Yunyao had robbed my limelight!”

The Eldest Madam frowned, feeling extremely unhappy in her heart . “Even mother did not expect that Mu Yunyao would actually be so capable! As expected of someone born in a business, her words and actions are exquisite, making it impossible for others to find any mistakes in her words . ”

Su Yuyi cursed in her heart, “It’s Meng Yanran’s fault . She was fine at first, but now she wants to provoke her . Mother, I am unwilling . If I can’t spread my reputation, how can the Grand Princess take a liking to me during the Mid-Autumn Festival’s banquet?”

“Don’t worry . The more time you come, the more stable you will be . Even though Mu Yunyao had stolen the limelight at the end of the banquet, with a little manipulation, you must be the one who is famous in Capital! Don’t worry . Mother has her own arrangements . ”

“Mother, I always feel that Mu Yunyao is very evil . You said that she is clearly from the countryside, so why is she knows both embroidery and tea ceremony? Moreover, seeing her attitude towards the ladies and young ladies today, I felt that her move was very detailed and meticulous . Did such a person really grow up in the countryside?”

The Eldest Madam frowned, and there was a flash of contemplation in her eyes . “What you said makes sense, but Mother had secretly sent people to investigate the identities of this mother and daughter . The evidence and experiences matched each other . Also, your grandmother was not an easy person to interact with . If the identity of these two people is not confirmed, she will definitely not bring them back to the Su family . ”

“Speaking of which, our Su family isn’t small . How can a perfect lady as Grandmother could lose her daughter?”

“She said that she went out to enjoy the incense . On the way back, she met a robber, and her child was taken away in a hurry . I only heard your father say a few words, but I’m not sure about the situation . ” The Eldest Madam sighed to herself, “Speaking of which, our Su family is also basked in Su Qing’s glory . ”

“Basked in her glory?”

“Yes . At that time, Grand Princess Yi De protected the Emperor from seizing power . Grand Princess Yi De Mansion was the first to be affected by the chaos in the Imperial Court . The Grand Princess’s husband had died in order to protect the Emperor . Grand Princess Yi De had been able to flee the Capital with her children, but in order to send a message to the Emperor, she had no other choice but to send her daughter out . By the time the Emperor led the army to calm the chaos, the Grand Princess’s child could no longer be found, and the Grand Princess was also injured while sending messages to the Emperor . The Grand Princess’s injury made her impossible to have children in the future . The Emperor felt guilty and searched for this child everywhere after he ascended the throne . It’s a pity that it’s not easy to find someone in such a big world, to the point where there still hasn’t been any news about her . ”

“I also heard from your grandmother later on that the Su family didn’t really receive much attention from the Emperor at first . But, they suddenly lost a daughter and tried to find her, which made the Grand Princess feel sympathy for this family . It was also because of this that the Emperor gradually began to view the Su family . Even later, when your grandfather passed away, the Su family already had a solid foundation and has steadily developed to this day . Tell me, isn’t it related to Su Qing in some way?”

“Then it really can be considered as a blessing in disguise . If it wasn’t for Aunt being lost, then who knows when the Su family would be able to rise to the top . ” Su Yuyi blinked and said proudly, “Although we borrowed this reason, in the end, it’s still because of father has an ability . How could he possibly sit in such an important position as Minister of the Ministry of Official Affairs and have been stable for so many years?”

“Of course,” The Eldest Madam smiled . But very soon, a hint of seriousness appeared in her eyes . “However, now that the Emperor is old and the princes have all grown up . The situation in the Imperial Court is also unpredictable . It’s really uncertain whether our Su family can still be as prosperous as it is now . So, you and your elder brother need to plan carefully . “

“Mother, Elder Brother is now highly regarded by the Emperor . He can be said to be the only one in the Capital, so you don’t need to worry . As for me, how can I help?”

The Eldest Madam pulled Su Yuyi’s hand and looked at her face lovingly, “Of course, you can be great of help . Yuyi, do you know why Mother gave you such a name?”
