Chapter 152

Lady Jin's Adoptive Daughter

When Lady Jin took away the New Year’s gift, she immediately had Cao Yunnian deliver it to Governor’s Mansion . After seeing it, his face flushed with excitement . He forcefully patted Cao Yunnian’s shoulder and repeatedly instructed people to invite the best master to frame the embroidery with the most meticulous of methods . “Brother Cao, don’t worry . I will explain the source of this embroidery and its merits . You and Lady Jin are certainly not to be left out . “

Cao Yunnian didn’t say anything, but his heart filled with joy . After returning to his residence, he held Lady Jin’s hand as they walked in the garden . At the same time, he told her about what had happened today . His previous provocations by Concubine Wang had indeed made him somewhat unhappy, but because of his anger, it had made Lady Jin sad for several days . She had even said words to sever her relationship with Jin Family in Xi Ling . Later on, he had personally heard how arrogant Concubine Wang was behind his back, so she knew he had done it . At the tip of the horn, he had to spend many days before he managed to coax Lady Jin back .

Later on, when he saw that she worked harder every day while carrying her two bodies, he felt that his previous actions had been improper . Thus, in these few days, as long as there was nothing else, he came back to accompany Lady Jin . The relationship between the husband and wife was much intimate than in the past .

When Lady Jin heard Cao Yunnian’s praise of the New Year’s gift, she couldn’t help but talk about Mu Yunyao: “That girl is not only full of emotions and feelings, she also has a way to handle matters . You don’t know, every time I went to visit her in the past few days, she was thinner than before . It really makes one’s heartache to look at her . I think that in order to complete this new year’s gift, she has put in a lot of effort and put it seriously . Seriously speaking, we have been smooth in this half a year, and most of them are because of her blessing . I think, seeing New Year’s gift is ready, I should prepare a generous present and thank her well .

“Of course we have to give a present to Mu Yunyao, but look at Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo . Which one of them isn’t trying to get rich every day? How much is this gift to be considered a generous gift? Then, Madam, what do you think?”

“I am around the same age as Mu Yunyao’s mother, the Su Family . I also like Mu Yunyao very much and have long treated her as a close younger generation . It has been more than half a year . How about considering her as an adoptive daughter? If anything happens to her in the future, it will be more reasonable to take care of her . ”

Cao Yunnian thought for a moment . “Madam’s idea is so good, but Mu Yunyao had received a reward from the Emperor . Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo have golden signs that personally written by the Emperor, and even the Governor’s wife is giving her high praises . If we recklessly acknowledge her as our adoptive daughter, will it make her think we have something else to do with it?”

“To be honest with you, if you change someone else, I wouldn’t dare speak this way, but towards Mu Yunyao, I could be sure that she definitely wouldn’t have such thoughts . That child has an exquisite and delicate . Also, she is meticulous and considerate . She treats me with utmost sincerity . If the child in my womb doesn’t have her, I’m afraid I can’t protect it for a long time . ”

Cao Yunnian saw Lady Jin seemingly sad, and he hurriedly expressed comfort: “Since Madam is so certain, then I naturally have no objections . A few days ago, I invited a doctor to check Madam’s pulse and confirmed that the child in your womb is a male fetus . Now that we have recognized Mu Yunyao as our adoptive daughter, we can consider ourselves have both son and daughter . ”

Lady Jin smiled . “Then I will go to Su Family tomorrow and discuss this with Su Qing before asking for Yunyao’s opinion . Although we say that we have adopted her as our adopted daughter, we must still treat her as our biological daughter . I also want to bring her to her marriage, help her choose a kind family, and give her a rich dowry .

“Alright, everything depends on Madam . ”

On this day, Mu Yunyao was still lazily lying on the soft couch and saw Si Qin walk in quickly: “Greetings, Young Miss . Lady Jin is here, and she is talking to Madam, and Madam is sending this slave to invite Young Miss to come over .

“It’s snowing today, why Lady Jin is here?” Mu Yunyao stood up . Jin Lan had already taken a cloak with a hare skin and put it on . After putting it on, she grabbed her umbrella and walked all the way to the warm pavilion in the front yard .

Lady Jin was smiling as she chatted with Su Qing . When she heard Si Qi’s announcement, she immediately looked towards the door . The curtain uplifted as Mu Yunyao walked in with light and quick steps . She was wearing a cloak embroidered with cranes and rabbit hair . When she walked in, she revealed a pleated skirt with red pomegranate flower embroidery . When she walked in, she had a brilliant smile on her face, causing people to raise the corners of their lips curled up in a smile, and their mood improved a bit .

After passing the cloak to Si Qi, Mu Yunyao stepped forward and bowed . “Greetings, Lady Jin . Greetings, Mother . ”

“Hurry and get up . ” Lady Jin signaled Mu Yunyao to move forward and touched Mu Yunyao’s fingers . It was cold, and she quickly squeezed the heater in Mu Yunyao’s hand . Only then was she able to relax . “Seeing that you’ve been quite energetic these past few days, I can relax . ”

“Madam has sent people to bring me tonics . Mother stews them for me every day . I’m worried that I’ll become fat like a ball in a few days . ”

fat like a ball

Lady Jin amused by Mu Yunyao, and only after a long while did she stop her laughter . “Today, I have come to discuss an important matter with Sister Su . ”

“But wrong with the New Year’s gift?” Mu Yunyao’s heart tightened .

“Even the pickiest person wouldn’t have been able to find the slightest flaw in that gift . How could there be any problems?” Lady Jin said, looking at Su Qing, “Sister Su, we’ve known each other for more than half a year . After getting along with each other for so long, you should understand my personality . If you have something to say, I’ll tell you directly . ”

When Su Qing heard this, she could not help but feel nervous . “Madam, please tell me . ”

“During this period, Yunyao had helped me a lot, whether it’s the clothes that attracted the butterfly at the beginning, or the recipe for Rose Fragrance Dew, which helped me earn a lot of money later . The diagnosis that there was something wrong with my body that helps me solve the knot of my heart for many years . Recently merits, she taught embroidery needle technique and made New Year’s gift without rest every day . I am deeply grateful to Yunyao in my heart . ” Seeing that Su Qing was anxious and was about to say something, Lady Jin held her hand to comfort her . Then, she continued, “Sister Su and I bound by fate . If it were not for you taking care of us wholeheartedly a few months ago, I would not have known what would have happened to the child in my womb . I will always remember these feelings . No matter how generous the gift is, I can’t express my gratitude in case . Therefore I thought, I might as well take Yunyao as my adopted daughter . In the future, we’ll take care of each other as sisters, and this way, you can count on in Jingling City . “

“… Madam wishes to take Yao’er as her adopted daughter?” Su Qing was slightly surprised .

“That’s right . I came here specifically to discuss this with Madam . I wonder if you are willing to?”

Su Qing was ecstatic in her heart . “There’s one more person that dotes on Yao’er, why would I be reluctant to?” Lady Jin immediately smiled . “That’s great . Such an obedient daughter, I’m really fearful that Younger Sister will not bear it! Yao’er, what do you think?“
