Chapter 252
As the wheels rolled across the bluestone street, the sound suddenly stopped. After waiting for a while, Wen mama's voice came from outside. "Madam, Miss, we've arrived at the Su Estate."
A servant had already moved a footstool over. Jin Lan and Jin Qiao alighted from the horse station at both sides and helped Su Qing and Mu Yunyao off the horse carriage.
This was the place where the officials of the capital lived. Ordinary people could not enter this place at all. The wide streets were filled with green plants of all colors, and the environment here was especially quiet and elegant. The Su Clan's residence sat facing north, while two stone lions majestically stood by the door. The main courtyard was tall and imposing, with two towering red lacquer doors tightly shut. Inlaid on them were carved bronze rivets.
Color.
Su Qing and Mu Yunyao both got on the palanquin and the servants carried the palanquin into the Su residence. After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, the palanquin was put down and someone had to lift the palanquin again. After turning three or four corners, it finally came to a stop.
Jinlan and Jinqiao had been following on the two sides of the palanquin. When they saw that the manservant was about to push the palanquin down, they hurriedly moved to the left and right to stabilize the palanquin. The attendant was somewhat startled, but seeing that Jin Lan was bowing towards the carriage, he asked softly, "Miss, you can get off the carriage now." After she finished speaking, she still didn't move. A moment later, Mu Yunyao's indifferent reply sounded from the carriage. She then signaled the attendant at her side to push down the carriage before lifting the palanquin curtain to support Mu Yun.
Yao walked out.
When Senior Servant Qi saw this, she secretly sucked in a cold breath of air. The maidservants waiting at the side became even more respectful. They had never expected that the maids by Mu Yunyao's side would have such a complete set of rules. It was likely that even the servants of the mansion wouldn't be able to compare to her.

Mu Yunyao waited for Su Qing to get off the palanquin before stepping forward to support her arm. The servants around saluted in unison. Mu Yunyao, on the other hand, looked at Qi mama with a smile, appearing exceptionally adorable and intelligent. Senior Servant Qi hurriedly led the way, and through the drooping flower door, the scenery suddenly became beautiful. On both sides of the road was a veranda connected by hand, and in the middle was a hall. The back yard is elegant, the long corridor with ornamental buildings on both sides and the courtyard covered with greenery
Concealed, the flower wall called out, and the clear and serene sounds of birds chirping could be heard from time to time. There was nothing that didn't show their elegance.
After walking for another fifteen minutes, they arrived at Old Madam Su's courtyard.
A maidservant hurriedly came over and sized up Su Qing and Mu Yunyao with a face full of smiles. She knelt and greeted them, "Greetings Madam and the Young Lady. The Old Madam has been waiting for a long time."
Su Qing nodded slightly and turned her head to look at Mu Yunyao. She met Mu Yunyao's eyes that were filled with smiles. Her eyes were clear and had a gentle glow to them, giving them a sense of safety.
Su Qing's flustered heart suddenly calmed down. She shook Mu Yunyao's hand, tidied her sleeves, and slowly walked in.
As soon as they entered the hall, they heard a wave of lively laughter. Mu Yunyao's heart moved, and seeing that Su Qing's footsteps had slowed down, she couldn't help but step forward to stand by her side. "Mother."
A maid reported, "Madam, Madam Su and Miss Mu have arrived." The originally bustling main hall suddenly fell into silence. Mu Yunyao slowly raised her eyes, and after a slight sweep, she was able to thoroughly see the entire hall. She did not pay attention to the various gazes and was not intimidated by the luxurious decorations in the hall. She slightly used her strength to support Su Qing as she walked forward and faced him.
The old mistress of the Su family knelt down and kowtowed.
The interior of the hall was decorated in an even more luxurious manner. The silver tiles on the floor were dazzling, and on both sides of the hall hung translucent Lunar Shadow muslin. Above his head hung 12 exquisite palace lamps, and all the water furniture was made of yellow rosewood.
There were chairs placed on both sides of the hall, and the few ladies sitting there were all dressed in beautiful clothes and gems. Each and every one of them was as beautiful as a fairy concubine. She had imagined how luxurious the Su Family would be and had tried her best to calm down. However, after witnessing it for herself, she realized how narrow her world was. She was at a loss as to what to do.
He fiercely bit down on the tip of his tongue and his eyes instantly turned red. He followed Mu Yunyao's strength and walked up to pay his respects.
"Mother .."
Old Madam Su sat in the middle, dressed in a dark purple beautiful brocade dress, her head was covered with a dark jade forehead, her facial features were old, but she looked especially kind. Hearing the salutation, she looked over slightly, as if she couldn't believe it, "My son ..."
Just one sound and the tears had started to fall. The well-dressed lady on both sides hurriedly stepped forward to advise, "Madam, isn't he back? This is a joyous occasion. Don't hurt your body because of it, or else, I don't know how sad and troubled little sister Su Qing will be. "
"That's right. Look at that child, Su Qing's sister and Yunyao, they're scared. You're so sad, aren't you making them suffer as well?"
The two of them exhorted for a while before Old Madam Su finally stopped feeling sad. She carefully sized up Su Qing and Mu Yunyao. "Good child, quickly get up."
Su Qing was wearing a sky-blue dress with a matching skirt and a pearl hairpin on her head. She had her purple steps by her ears, which made her look gentle and graceful. Her eyes were red, and her face was tear-stained, making her look even softer and weaker. She was dressed extremely elegantly, wearing a water pink Peach Blossom Cloud shirt. Along with a pink jade seal carved from a set of steps, she wore a flower hairpin. Her face was white jade, her eyes were like stars, and there were a few tears on her cheeks like a dewy lily in the morning.
The petals revealed a delicate and beautiful aura.
"Mother, your daughter is unfilial ..." Su Qing held the handkerchief tightly as she spoke, bowing once more to the madame.
The two beautiful women at the side quickly went to support Su Qing, "Sister, don't be so polite. You've suffered so much outside for so many years, and after so many hardships you were finally able to get back to your home. The old lady really wants to treat you like an eyeball. The two of them hurriedly went forward to support Su Qing, and Mu Yunyao, who was at the side, released her. Su Qing was supported and could not kneel, but Mu Yunyao directly knelt on the ground. Hearing these words, she could not help but raise her head in a slightly helpless manner.
"Blessed. He even said that he would pay his respects to his grandmother when he sees her. After all, he hasn't been filial for so many years .."
To formally kneel and kowtow was a courtesy, not to mention that Su Qing had been living for many years. No matter the reason, if there was no formal greeting when she entered the door, she would appear uncultured. Who knew how many rumors would spread out.
The two beautiful women holding onto Su Qing were momentarily stunned. Su Qing quickly knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully to Old Madam Su. "Unfilial daughter Su Qing greets mother." Old Madam Su nodded her head and bent down slightly to help Su Qing up. "Good child, you're considerate."
