Lady Jin’s Red Envelope

When she was at Jin Palace, she also had a greenhouse, but it was so small . However, she nurtured the flowers and plants with great vigor and vitality . During the new year, Jin w.a.n.g brought two pots of beautiful peonies to showing his big face .

“Really? It is the first time that this servant has heard of it . “

“In fact, it’s not that surprising . Greenhouses had built in many places in the Capital, but the cost is too expensive . Most of the flowers and plants raised are not as beautiful as the spring and summer . Even so, they are in short supply in the rich and powerful family . ”

“When Miss is going to pack those plants? This servant will also learn a couple of moves from you, how about that?” Jin Qiao looked eagerly . Her embroidery skills were not bad, but it had lost a bit of its spirituality when compared to Jin Lan . In her heart, she did not have much love for embroidery . On the contrary, when she hears about raising flowers and gra.s.s, she gets full interest .

“Alright, if you like it, then learn from me . When you succeed, I can also get away and do other things . ”

Mu Yunyao brought Jin Qiao around the greenhouse for a few days and taught her how to look after the flowers and plants . Then, she took off to help Lady Jin with the Full Moon Banquet .

Cao Yunnian had promoted again, which made countless people jealous . Within a year, he had advanced from a fifth-grade Zhizhou to a fourth-grade Capital Investigation, so how could anyone not be envious of him? His one year is worth the hard work of others for more than ten years . How can they not be envied?

Although Cao Yunnian wanted to enter the Capital after this Full Moon Banquet, he couldn’t let go of the connections that he had been working so hard to manage in Jingling City . Therefore, the arrangements for the banquet had to be extra meticulous, not letting others feel like they had forgotten their duty after they left . Otherwise, it would not be worth it .

Lady Jin was interested in training Mu Yunyao, so she asked her to help prepare the guests list, seats, and dishes for the banquet .

Mu Yunyao didn’t decline either . After such a long time, she finally thoroughly understands the complicated network of people in Jingling City . After a moment of thought, she started writing but intentionally left out a few less prominent people and pa.s.sed the completed list to Lady Jin .

Lady Jin looked at it carefully, and she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart . As expected, Mu Yunyao had an exquisite heart . “Yao’er has arranged it very well . When I was your age, I only wanted to play around, but there are a few people that you need to pay attention to …”

“Thank you for your reminder, Mother . Otherwise, I really would have missed it . ”

“You’re still young . This arrangement is already exceptionally comprehensive and meticulous . There aren’t any problems with the dishes, so I’ll send out the order and have someone prepare it according to your instructions . ” After that, Lady Jin took out a red envelope from under her pillow: “When I was giving birth, I promised to give you a red envelope . However, I’ve been busy raising my body and taking care of your brother these past few days, so I forgot about this matter . I wanted to give you a red envelope at the Full Moon Banquet in a few days, but when I thought about it, this will inevitably cause some trouble for you, so I decided to give it to you today . ”

Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief . If Lady Jin really did give her a red envelope at the Full Moon Banquet, then many people will inevitably ask the reason . At that time, no matter how she explained, there would probably be some gossip coming out . In case those rich people investigate deeply and learn that she is very good at helping people deliver babies . There are actually people who ask her to come, and it was hard to decide whether to go or not .

“Thank you, Mother . I’ve already said this before, so I will not be polite . ” Mu Yunyao took the red envelope and weighed it heavily in her hand . “Mother, how many banknotes did you put in there? How come it’s so heavy?”

Lady Jin smiled and said, “You’ll know once you open it yourself . ”

Mu Yunyao opened the red envelope and saw the contents inside . She couldn’t help but taken aback . “Mother, how can this be?”

In addition to the tens of thousands of taels of silver in the silver notes, there were also several deeds of few mansions, farmland, houses, and land deeds . There was also a list of all kinds of porcelain, jade artifacts, and accessories . It is to be a few times more generous than the dowry of Lady Jin in the first place .

“Mother, this is too precious . I absolutely cannot accept it . ”

“Don’t worry, I’ll tell you in detail . ” Lady Jin pulled Mu Yunyao’s hand and sat down, “Since you called me Mother, then I’ll treat you as my own daughter . In my eyes, you and Zhiwen are my children, and I am sincere to you . However, your younger brother will be able to make a career for himself as a man . As a woman, you will marry someone else’s family in the future . You also will serve your in-laws, raise your children, and take care of your husband . The hards.h.i.+ps and suffering that you’ve gone through are not worth mentioning to outsiders . If these extraneous things can help you live a better life, Mother would also feel comforted . ”

Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled, and a strong feeling spread through her body . If it weren’t for the fact that they were really in her shoes, Lady Jin wouldn’t have said such words, “Mother, there are more places in the Capital where flowers are needed . I have Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo in my hands . I don’t lack silver taels . I can purchase other things slowly, but you are different . After such a long time, I have more or less understood a little bit . The Jin family is not an easy place to get along . If they find out that you have left everything for me, it’s hard to avoid a grudge …”

Lady Jin patted her hand: “Don’t worry . I have also saved a lot of personal money over the years . I don’t have much, and I’ll keep some for you . When the time comes for you to put on makeup, you can take care of it . As for the other shops, I’ll leave them behind . Since it’s inconvenient for me to manage them, so I’ll give them to you . ”

Mu Yunyao still felt that she couldn’t accept it . “Mother …” She is afraid these things are most of the property of the adoptive mother . They were way too valuable .

“Alright, if you still refuse to accept it, I’ll be angry . Since Mother hasn’t given birth yet, the consequences of getting angry will be much worse than usual!”

Seeing that Lady Jin really had a stern face, Mu Yunyao thought for a moment before nodding . “Alright, then I’ll accept it . Thank you, Mother . ”

Lady Jin then showed a smile: “That’s more like it . Shopkeeper Jin has followed me for many years, and he knows all the farms, mansions, and shops that I have . I’m not going to bring him with me when I return to the Capital . I will leave him by your side . ”

“Okay, please be at ease, Mother . I will take good care of Shopkeeper Jin and ask for his advice when I have something on . ”

“Yes, Mother . ”

Lady Jin thought of another thing, “Oh right, I a.s.sume you’ve also heard that the person who came to take over your Father’s position is Li Munian from the Capital . His ident.i.ty is extraordinary, so you should pay more attention and try not to provoke him . ”

“I heard that he came from the Li family in the Capital . Although I was far away in Jingling City, I also heard about the prestige of the Li family . It was really amazing . It really makes one sigh in admiration . ” Mu Yunyao revealed a surprised expression .

Lady Jin nodded in agreement: “Father of Li Munian is the Prime Minister of the dynasty, Li Qingzhou . Although he is already old and the Emperor wants to reduce his power, in the end, he is still a veteran official who has followed the Emperor all the way . The Emperor has always been thinking of his old relations.h.i.+p with him . Thus, he considered being someone of high authority . In these past few years, the Su family has gradually developed . Although they can faintly compete with Li Qingzhou, I think the newcomers still not as powerful as the old ones . I’m afraid that Li Munian’s coming here has other purposes . After we leave, the influence will certainly not be as good as before . You must be more careful not to get involved in it . ”
