Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 280

~ DO YOU LIKE YOUNG MASTER NING? ~

Mu Yunyao especially ordered two dishes for dinner . The kitchen didn’t dare to smuggle anything down, and the taste was also very delicious . Both mother and daughter pair ate very happily .

After the meal, Jin Lan and Jin Qiao brought some fragrant tea over . Both mother and daughter spoke to each other, “Yao’er, what happened in the Palace? How come the attitude of the Meng family and the Su family changed so much all of a sudden?”

Su Qing still had an unreal feeling, especially that Meng Yanran . Wasn’t she arrogant before? Why did she come to apologize today and ask Yunyao if she forgave her after getting slapped?

Mu Yunyao told Su Qing everything that had happened in the Palace today, thoughts running through her eyes, “ . . . That is how I entered the Palace today roughly . In the beginning, the Emperor didn’t say anything, but later, when I was about to leave, he suddenly added a word that told me to fight back . When I got back, I thought about it . It must be something that the Meng family has done that has displeased the Emperor . ”

“I think so too . After all, the Meng family is not the house of an ordinary official, and I’ve heard that the Imperial Concubine De is legitimate of Grand Preceptor Meng . Although she doesn’t have a son of her own and looks weak in the Palace, she can’t stand the favor of the Emperor, and she is in great limelight!”

Mu Yunyao was a little curious, “Where did Mother hear this from?”

“Si Qin told me . ”

“Si Qin?”

Su Qing glanced at her reproachfully, “Although Mother grew up in the countryside and didn’t have much knowledge, I am not stupid . Not only did Si Qin and the other three girls have excellent skills, their manners and demeanor were also extraordinary . They definitely couldn’t have been bought from someone else by Liu Liang . Mother had thought about it carefully for a long time . The most likely outcome would be that these four girls were groomed by Young Master Ning . ”

Mu Yunyao slightly pursed her lips . “I let Mother see that . I didn’t want to hide it from you at first, but I’m afraid that you won’t be able to trust these four girls in the future…”

“Yao’er, you … Are you really fallen for that Young Master Ning?” Su Qing felt that she should carefully plan things out . In another two months, Yunyao would come of age . They had no one to rely on, so they could not let the Su family interfere and ruin Yunyao’s second half of her life .

Mu Yunyao was stunned, then hurriedly shook her head . “Why would Mother think that? Me and him . . . . It’s absolutely impossible . ”

Su Qing patted the back of her hand with a smile on her face . “Mother is also someone who has passed through the past . After some time, you will reach adulthood . It is not too early for you to think about your marriage . We’re also in the Capital now . Isn’t that Young Master Ning also here? If his background is not bad and he is interested in you as well . It just so happens that…”

Mu Yunyao quickly explained, “Mother, don’t let your imagination run wild . Young Master Ning and I are only working together to earn some silver . To put it nicely, we’re friends . To put it harshly, we’re just using each other . ”

“Yao’er, your mother knows that because of the past, your mood is unavoidably heavy, but you can’t stop eating because of choking, you . . . ”

“Mother, aren’t we talking about the Meng family? How did it come to that Young Master Ning? We are in the Su family now, and we can’t even stand firmly . How can we think about that? Besides, you see that Young Master Ning already in his early twenties! How old can you say the children are?”

“There aren’t children . I’ve asked around about it . Young Master Ning doesn’t even have a concubine to share a room with …”

“Mother, who did you ask about it from?” Had her mother misunderstood something and ask if Yue Wang had a concubine in his residence?

Su Qing coughed awkwardly, “I just chatted casually with Steward Qin and said a few words . . ”

Mu Yunyao was a little stunned . Steward Qin had avoided her several times when she met Yue Wang . Although his attitude wasn’t apparent, she could faintly feel the meaning of the matchmaking . When her mother and Steward Qin started to talk about this, who knew if Yue Wang turned around, how would he feel?

Su Qing looked at Mu Yunyao’s appearance and thought she was thin-skinned and embarrassed, so she tactfully changed the topic, “Yao’er, let’s talk about the Meng family . After today’s incident, I can see that Miss Meng’s gaze was really chilling when she left . She won’t come back to find faults in the future, right?”

Mu Yunyao came back to her senses, feeling that she was once again confused by Yue Wang, and she couldn’t help but feel a little annoyed, and she quickly put all her thoughts behind her: “Mother, don’t worry too much . Meng Yanran’s way of doing things is too overbearing . Even when treating her sisters in the family, she’s always bullied and spoiled them . Now that she suddenly lost her composure, how could those people she threatened easily let her go? There were also those ladies and concubines who only wished for their daughters to be pampered . Previously, when they were proud, they didn’t feel that it was right . However, when they were disappointed, they realized that they had made many enemies . What they should worry about is her . ”

“Mn, then Mother is relieved now . ”

However, Mu Yunyao understood that things would not end like this . Although she didn’t need to worry too much about Meng Yanran, the Meng Family would definitely hate her because of this, especially Imperial Concubine De in the Palace . Her heart has never been big . But these things haven’t happened yet, there was no need for her mother to worry about it, so there was no need to say anything else .

“The matter of the banquet has already been settled . I haven’t seen my adoptive mother for a long time . Speaking of which, I really miss her a bit . ”

“That’s right . We can meet at the banquet . ”

“Yes . ”

Su Qing and Mu Yunyao chatted for a while before they both went back to rest .

However, the Eldest Madam was so angry that she couldn’t even eat a single mouthful in the room . Su Yuyi carefully sat on the side and said, “Mother, since it’s like this, there’s no point in thought too much . You’d better have something to eat . ”

The Eldest Madam also understood this logic, but the more she thought about Mu Yunyao slapping Meng Yanran, the angrier she felt . She angrily threw the chopsticks in her hand away, “I’ve been beating geese all day . Who would’ve thought that the geese would peck back at their eyes?” Who would have thought that a girl from the countryside could act so arrogantly?”Mother, it’s all your daughter’s fault . If I hadn’t been so anxious to invite Cousin Yanran over, things wouldn’t have developed to this point . ”

“I don’t blame you . Even if Meng Yanran didn’t get involved in this matter, Mu Yunyao would think of something else . She wanted to use this opportunity to establish her prestige in the Su family, from the master to the servants, so no one would dare to look down on her and Su Qing anymore!”

“Mother, your daughter really doesn’t understand . Why would the Emperor agree to let her beat up Cousin Yanran?”

“A few days ago, when checking the salt policy, the Li family met with trouble . Your grandmother also heard some provocations from somewhere and secretly attacked the First Prince . But not only did she not succeed, she instead stole the chicken and ate the rice, causing the First Prince to come to the Emperor and cry about how miserable he was . The Emperor dislikes party disputes the least, so it was inevitable that he had a grudge against the Meng family in his heart . This time, it is just a warning . ”

“No matter what, my aunt has served the Emperor in the Palace for many years . The Meng family has also made a lot of contributions to the court . The Emperor’s move is really chilling!”
