Chapter 44
Mu Yunyao coldly retracted her long sword. Without saying a word, she turned around and left the room, continuing to stand guard at the door as if nothing had happened. However, from the corner of her eyes, she glanced at Mu Yunyao's flushed face.
Mu Yunyao laughed for a long time before gently wiping away her tears. She then saw Su Qing walk in with a worried expression on her face. "Yao`er, have you heard about it?"
"Hmm? What did you hear? "
"About the Spring Embroidery Workshop." Su Qing couldn't stop her worry. "I just heard from the sisters, Jinlan and Jinqiao, that the Spring Embroidery Workshop had the intention of selling their country to the enemy. All of them have been sealed off."
"Communicating with the enemy to sell off the country, what a great reputation..." Mu Yunyao raised her eyebrows. This was indeed the Su Family's style.
Seeing that Mu Yunyao still had a smile on her face, Su Qing became more and more anxious. She got up and closed the door before carefully saying, "Yao`er, don't you know how powerful it is? I heard that the Spring Embroidery Workshop was sealed up. It wasn't to make enemies sell their country, but rather that something went wrong with the birthday present that was offered, causing the Emperor to be furious. I also heard that the birthday present was a screen .. "
Seeing that her forehead was already sweating urgently, Mu Yunyao hurriedly helped her to sit down. "Mother, don't worry, I will make it clear that even if it's a matter of the imperial family, we still need to have true evidence to prove our conviction. The embroidery line and the embroidery cloth were all provided by the Spring Embroidery Workshop, and I'm only responsible for the embroidery.
"What if someone framed you?"
"Even if you want to frame someone, you still have to frame someone of value. I am just a nobody, they can take care of me once they make a move. Why do you need to gather so many people?" She had thought about the consequences of the incident long before sending the screen over. She had even considered the worst case scenario of being found responsible for, so she was confident that she could extricate herself from this matter.
"What you said makes sense." Su Qing's heart relaxed slightly.
"Mother, you don't have to worry about this matter. We've already received the news, it should be over by now."
Although Su Family's patriarch Su Wen Yuan had an agile personality, he had made countless enemies over the years. He hoped that there would be people who were unlucky enough for the Su Family, not to mention, the Spring Embroidery Workshop was a piece of fat. Now that he had the chance to take a bite, those people who had been jealous for a long time would not let him go.
Now that the Spring Embroidery Workshop had been sealed up and no one had come to find her, there shouldn't be any problems.
After comforting Su Qing, Mu Yunyao looked at the embroidery progress of the female disciples. After inspecting it carefully, she nodded to herself, "Everything is ready now."
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. A little girl actually dared to treat him in such a manner. He had to find an opportunity to repay this debt.
He was very determined and didn't notice that more and more people were looking at him. Many of them were even pointing and laughing while covering their lips.
The attendant at the side looked at his face and finally could not help but voice out. "Manager, your eyebrows ..."
When he was angry, his eyebrows would rise and fall uncontrollably. Later on, when he became the shopkeeper, he always felt that this was not dignified enough and had deliberately adjusted it, but it still did not have any effect. Thus, he hated it when people used his eyebrows to talk about things: "What happened to my eyebrows?"
"Manager, can't you feel it yourself? The eyebrow on your left is gone! "
"What did you say?" What's gone? "
"Eyebrow!"
He only touched his bare brow bones as a thought flashed through his mind. He thought that he had been swept by the sword blade, but never did he expect that it was actually that young man who wielded the sword who had shaved off his brow!
"What a girl, you and I are irreconcilable!" The manager of the Rainbow Moon Pavilion raised his sleeves to cover his face as he quickly ran towards the direction of the Rainbow Moon Pavilion.
After confirming the plan in her heart, Mu Yunyao began to prepare. Although the words of the Multicolored Moon Pavilion's shopkeeper weren't pleasant to hear, they indeed made some sense. However, her plan was not to recruit more people and increase the scale. Currently, ten female acolytes were enough. What she needed to do was to increase the price of each piece of clothing.
Other people would get a hundred silvers' worth of clothes, while she would make a thousand silvers' worth of clothes, which was enough to make up for the shortage of manpower.
At the Cao family's residence, Mu Yunyao was led in by a silver red. When she entered, she saw the ruddy-faced Madam Cao's face full of smiles as she looked over. Without waiting for her to bow, she ordered several people, "Didn't you see that my esteemed guest has arrived? Quickly serve tea and snacks!"
"Madam, you're going to kill me just like this." Mu Yunyao unhurriedly completed her greetings before getting up and sitting on a round stool at the side. "People say that people are happy when they see a happy occasion. Judging from Madam's expression, you've probably met with many happy events."
"Speaking of which, it really is all thanks to you. At the banquet, I sincerely kowtowed to the matter of attracting Cai Die and reported it to the emperor. The emperor specifically issued a reward."
It has nothing to do with me. Moreover, word has spread throughout Tomb City that you are not the only one receiving a reward from the Emperor. In another month, after the matters have been settled, you will be calling Cao Zhizhou the history of Cao Yan.
Although his position in the government had not changed, he knew that the state was a fifth rank official, while the Salt Transport Envoy was a fourth rank. Looking at it, it seemed that it was only a small step.
The smile on Madame Jin's face became increasingly exuberant. Who would have thought that just because of her act of loving beauty back then, she was able to establish a good relationship with Mu Yunyao? Furthermore, her clothes allowed Cao Zhizhou's career to be smoother by a hundred times!
"In the past few days, I've been begging you to help me make clothes. I'm afraid that you've stepped on my doorstep, right?"
Speaking of which, Mu Yunyao had a face full of distress. "I've really made the right decision, after the Emperor gave his order to praise the Madam, there was someone that came knocking to make me make clothes. At the beginning I was happy, but afterwards I couldn't handle it, so I came here specifically to take shelter."
"Others would never be able to earn this silver even if they wanted to. Now that the silver has been delivered to your doorstep, you don't even know how to hug it. You're such a foolish girl!" There was even a hint of flattery towards the younger generation. Speaking of which, she was even older than her mother Su Qing, but she did not have any offspring.
"Seeing so much silver, I also feel envious. So, I've come here today to seek an idea from Madam." Mu Yunyao had an embarrassed expression.
"Tell me, if there's anything I can do to help, I'll definitely help."

"It's not a big deal. The ten female acolytes that Madam lent me .."
Before she could finish, Lady Jin turned to look at Silver Red, "Speaking of which, I also have something I need to talk to you about. It's also about those ten female acolytes."
