Chapter 308

~ THE BIG SHOW KICKS OFF ~

The Old Madam shook her head . “In terms of official battles, you’re the best . Mother naturally won’t worry about it, but in terms of private affairs, your wife is the best at it . ”

“Meng Yunxiang?”

“That’s right . Seeing Mu Yunyao humiliating the Meng family some time ago and stealing Yuyi’s limelight twice in succession, I guess your wife is holding a grudge . If you give her a few pointers from the side, she will naturally take care of this hidden danger . You only need to sit on the sidelines and sweep your tail at an appropriate time . ”

“Yes . ”

“You have to be more careful with the Meng family . After all, Mu Yunyao entered the emperor’s eyes, and behind her are Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo . Just with these two businesses alone are making a lot of money every day . If you make good use of them . . . ”

Su Wenyuan’s eyes fiercely moved . “According to Mother’s plan, don’t tell me that you wanted to …”

The Old Madam put the Buddhist beads in her hand aside: “The Spring Embroidery Workshop has collapsed . At that time, I couldn’t keep fighting for survival due to the circumstances, and I still feel a dull ache when I think about it . However, if I lose the Spring Embroidery Workshop, get Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo as an addition, this business will not be a loss . ”

“Mother, don’t worry . Your Son knows what to do now . ”

“Mm, Wenyuan, you must not interfere with the things that Mother said before . In case …” The Old Madam Sun took a deep breath as if she didn’t want such a scene to occur to her . She paused for a while before continuing, “If Mu Yunyao is lucky and she manages to escape, as long as it can’t involve you, our Su family wouldn’t hurt . . . ”

Su Wenyuan was taken aback for a moment and seemed to hesitate . “But Mother, Meng Yunxiang followed me for many years and gave birth to two children, Qingwu and Yuyi . . . ”

“I know you value relationships . But is relationships matter more, or is the future more important?” The Old Madam frowned . Her expression did not look as broad as usual, but it was instead particularly harsh and sharp . “Besides, the Meng family looks like the sun in the sky, but the younger generations below are not worth it . How long can Grand Preceptor Meng hold on with just his face alone?”

“Although there aren’t many prodigies in the Meng family’s younger generation, at least there is still has Imperial Concubine De in the Palace…”

The Old Madam’s eyes were dark . “A concubine without children, what do you expect her to become? Moreover, even if she was pregnant and gave birth now, would she be able to hold on until the child grew up? You know, if it weren’t for the things that the previous Empress had done, the princes didn’t even have the chance to fight for the throne . Forget it, let’s not talk about the old days . You only need to remember that the opportunity now is notably rare, so you cannot miss it . ”

“Mother is right . ” Su Wenyuan nodded his head . If it weren’t for the fact that the previous Empress had killed so many princes, the Third Prince wouldn’t be in the court . After all, there were many astounding talents among the sons killed by the previous Empress .

The Old Madam nodded her head, and her expression softened, “Then it’s settled, and now it’s just an analogy . With the Meng family’s methods, it won’t be a problem to deal with Mu Yunyao and Su Qing .

Your wife has been in charge of the household for years, and she is not an easy person to get along with in residence . If something did happen, it was better to compensate the Meng family . ”

“ . . . Yes, this Son understands . ” Su Wenyuan pondered for a moment, then nodded his head and agreed .

“Alright,” The Old Madam nodded her head in satisfaction . Her eyebrows relaxed, and she returned to her usual gentle and amicable manner, “At the Palace Banquet yesterday, Yuyi performed well . Thinking about it, it won’t be long before her reputation spreads out . As a father, you have to help a lot . Other places may not be able to catch up . But in the Capital, you as the Minister of the Ministry of Official Affairs are still quite useful . ”

“Mother, don’t worry . Yuyi is my own daughter, and now she is in such a magnificent situation . I will definitely help her plan a good future . ”

“Yes . ”

Yue Chun Garden is a special place for the Su family to enjoy themselves . A stage had been set up in the garden, and the corridors and pavilions built around it were all convenient for everyone to sit down and watch .

Mu Yunyao accompanied Su Qing over, and just as she sat down, she felt someone’s gaze falling on her . She raised her eyes to look over and saw Su You’s cold face with a very arrogant look, “Mother, please sit here for a moment . I’ll go and say hello to Elder Sister Su You . ”

Su Qing nodded, “Go . ”

Previously, Mu Yunyao had said that if the Second Madam trusted her and wanted to join hands with her, she would carefully think about it when she returned . The second house’s position in the Su family was also a bit awkward right now . Not only Su Zhiyuan’s official position is far less than Su Wenyuan’s, but the Second Madam can’t get involved in the affairs of the Su family .

Although the second house was maintained pretty well because of the Old Madam’s checks and balances, now Su Qingwu and Su Yuyi had grown up, wouldn’t the Old Madam be biased again?

Once the Old Madam started to take sides, the second house would definitely be oppressed by the Eldest Madam . Furthermore, the Second Madam didn’t have any sons, and their only daughter was sickly, which makes her situation even more difficult . If the second house really wanted to, they could help each other out .

“Elder Sister Su You, you look pretty good today . ” Mu Yunyao walked over to Su You’s side and looked at her with a smile .

Su You felt a bit stuffy: “Why don’t you wait for the play? Why do you come to me? Although Grandmother has always treated others with kindness, you walk around like this, it will inevitably make people feel unruly . ”

“Although this place is called ‘Grandmother’s house’ and is not as free as my home, Grandmother loves me dearly . I walk around a little, and I don’t think that she would blame me for this . I saw that Elder Sister Su You’s clothes were so beautiful today, so I intentionally went closer to admire her . ”

Su You’s face turned slightly red . Initially, she thought that after experiencing the banquet, Mu Yunyao would ignore her . But she didn’t expect that Mu Yunyao would take the initiative to come over to greet her . Moreover, it was as if she didn’t care about her rudeness from that day: “I … Then you can sit down . I’ve got some new fruits that I can’t eat . I’ll send them to Jiyue Pavilion later . “

“Alright, then I’ll help Elder Sister Su You to eat more . ”

“You … That’s all you can do to help . ”

Seeing Su You’s extremely awkward expression, Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but flash a smile in her heart . When her eyes noticed the teacup beside her, she couldn’t help but lightly remind her, “Your body is weak, so it’s not suitable for you to drink Liu’an Tea . I’ve brought some flower and fruit tea from Jingling City, and the taste is pretty good . How about Elder Sister also help me drink some?”

Su You felt a little uncomfortable . Facing the current Mu Yunyao, she had the feeling that she was the only one being indulged by her own little sister . “Aren’t you afraid that there will be people making trouble for you?”

Mu Yunyao chuckled, “If I were an ordinary person, I wouldn’t dare to give it to anyone else, but if I give it to Elder Sister Su You, there shouldn’t be that many problems, right?”

Su You harrumphed, “It’s necessary to be defensive . You can rest assured of me, but I can’t rest assured of you . Wait until you send the tea over, and I’ll immediately get a few doctors to help me check it out . If there’s no problem, then I’ll taste it . ”

“Alright, Elder Sister can do as you see fit . ” Mu Yunyao did not care . She understood that the reason why Su You was doing this . It was not because she suspected that there was something wrong with her flower and fruit tea . But she wanted to use this to resolve the hidden danger behind it . After all, Su You is in poor health . It can’t be said that any slight disturbance will make her sick . After such an examination, it will eliminate the possibility of others framing her .
