Chapter 106 If You Are Not Happy, I Am Happy

Mu Yunyao pretended to be surprised as she looked at him, "I wonder where Lord Su saw my embroidery before?"

Since she had arrived at Jingling City, she only made clothes for the ladies . Su Qingwu had been dragged to the banquet by Governor Zhang yesterday, and the only people he saw were Governor Zhang's wife and Lady Jin, who did not wear clothes made by her . Then, where had Su Qingwu seen her embroidery before and knowing that her embroidery is extraordinary?

Su Qingwu paused for a moment, and a bitter smile appeared on his face . "But how did I offend Miss Mu to make you look at me with such hostility?"

Mu Yunyao smiled . You've offended me in many ways, but on the surface, she pretended to be confused . "What is Lord Su saying? I'm just curious, but did you ask me something that I shouldn't have?"

"It is just that you seem to have a grudge against me . "

"How could that be? Lord Su is young and capable, upon entering the city yesterday, his outstanding charm had already spread throughout the entire Jingling City . Right now, I wonder how many people are envious of me, did you not realise that on the way here, many women were embarrassed to the point of blushing?"

Su Qingwu had made the Sixth Princess to not eat or drink because of him . She threatened to go on a hunger strike and had to marry her . They even forced Su Qingwu to retreat with the scholar's office . Otherwise, at his age, he would have already married .

"What about Miss Mu?" As soon as the words left his mouth, Su Qingwu immediately pursed his lips . It was very rude to ask that, but she didn't even react when he blurted it out .

Mu Yunyao's smile was still the same . "I am naturally envious of Lord Su's fame and achievements at such a young age . Because I am a girl and have no way of entering the imperial court, otherwise, I would have to learn from Lord Su . "

"Miss Mu spread the embroidery method to bring benefits to the citizens, and has done better than many officials . " Su Qingwu heaved a sigh of relief, but a trace of discomfort flashed across his heart .

"Lord Su thinks too highly of me . I have my selfish motives for spreading the news of the embroidery needling technique . "

Mu Yunyao looked around, and because there were no people by the riverside and was quiet, she continued, "I am doing this for silver taels . There are too few females embroider in the Niyunfang . If I spread the embroidery technique, then there are more people from whom I pick the best to make more clothes and earn money for me . "

Su Qingwu chuckled . "Miss Mu's personality is so interesting . "

"I'm telling the truth . It's like a lot of officials . Are they working for the benefit the people? In all likelihood, even if there were benefits to the citizens, it was mainly for their own accomplishments . To gain more power, they would have to pay more silver in the end . However, they are not willing to admit it . Why else would there be three years of Qingzhifu and a hundred thousand taels of snow silver*? "A reputation is a reputation . Silver taels are affordable . With a reputation, there will be benefits . Only then will one be able to achieve perfection . "

The smile on Su Qingwu's face faded, his fingers twirling lightly, his lips pursed .

Mu Yunyao knew that he was angry, and the curve of her lips slowly widened . Seeing that he was unhappy, she felt good .

"Miss Mu is biased against everyone . His Majesty is wise, he has a wide selection of talents, and has countless excellent officials in the court . . . "

Mu Yunyao also knew that this statement was true; Just like Lord Cao and Governor Zhang who were excellent officials . However, for the sake of angering Su Qingwu, she did not admit it . She changed the topic: "After walking for so long, Lord Su should be hungry, so let's go to the restaurant to rest . How about we have a taste of the Jingling City's delicacies?"

As Su Qingwu's words were cut off, his beautiful eyebrows twitched . Looking at Mu Yunyao's smiling expression and her sweet face, he slightly nodded his head, "Alright . "

Mu Yunyao brought Su Qingwu to the restaurant's private room . She then pushed open the window and looked at the Jingling River not far away, "Lord Su said that I am biased against everyone, but I do know the suffering of those without power . Even after receiving the emperor's praise for imparting the embroidery craftsmanship to the citizens, I am being bullied and humiliated by others, not to mention thousands of other ordinary citizens . "

Unexpectedly, she again started the conversation now . As Su Qingwu held his teacup, a light flashed in her phoenix eyes, "I wonder what Miss Mu has encountered, May I help you?" She had said so much along the way, all just for this moment?

Mu Yunyao smiled lightly: "I don't dare trouble Lord Su, I will think of a way to solve it myself . Since I've said it, today I'm bringing Lord Su to experience the local customs and practices in Jingling City, let's not talk about these troublesome matters . "

After eating, Mu Yunyao led Su Qingwu around half of the Jingling City, looking through the most famous places with the most beautiful scenery .

As Su Qingwu admired the scenery of the Jingling City along the way, but his mind was set on Mu Yunyao . On the way, he had heard her introductions . He could tell that she had very excellent etiquette and had good knowlege . She didn't seem like a woman that any regular family could nurture . Furthermore, every word she said on the way, entered his ears and his heart, making him feel extremely comfortable .

"Lord Su, it's getting late, I should also go back . If you haven't enjoyed enough of the beautiful scenery of Jingling City, how about tomorrow?"

"Alright, I will get someone to send Miss Mu home . "

"I do not want to bother Lord Su . I have a maid accompanying me, and this place is not far from Niyunfang, I can immediately return to Niyunfang . Goodbye, sir . " After she finished speaking, Mu Yunyao immediately turned and left .

Su Qingwu slightly frowned . He originally wanted to test Mu Yunyao this time . But he didn't expect before he could do so, his thoughts had long been thrown into chaos .

On his way back, he passed by the embroidery stand at the corner of the street . He saw the sweat towel embroidered with orchids, and couldn't help but walk over to take a closer look . The fabric used by the patrons was general . Although the orchids had some charm, there were not many that were stunning, But he noticed one after a while .

"Does young master like it? "Only eight cents . "

Su Qingwu nodded his head, and the follower behind him immediately took out a copper coin and handed it over . The stand owner's smile became even more brilliant . The aura of the wealthy young master in front of him was extraordinary .

As Su Qingwu had just followed Miss Mu from Niyunfang, the stand owner naturally remembered him clearly "Miss Mu is beautiful, her personality is also first-class, no one in the Jingling City doesn't praise her . I wonder who will have the fortune to marry such a woman in the future . "

Su Qingwu nodded slightly to the stand owner before putting away his sweat towel and left .

Walking past the Jingling Bridge, he couldn't help but twirl the orchid embroidered on the sweat towel . "Beautiful indeed, but her personality isn't first-rate . Also, does she have anything to do with that screen?"

When Mu Yunyao returned to Niyunfang, Su Qing was counting up the rewards given by The Emperor .

"Yao'er, look at these fabrics, they're not too bad . It seems like the Emperor knows that you're good at embroidery, so he especially rewarded them to make clothes for you . "

"If Mother likes it, I'll make one for you to see tomorrow . "

"That's great! We have money, so we have to keep all of it . We'll use it as your dowry in the future . " Su Qing was beaming with happiness . It had been so long, but this was the first time she was so happy .

Mu Yunyao thought about the plan in her heart and secretly apologised to Su Qing . To deal with Su Qingwu, she had no choice but to pay some price .
