The Collapse of Cai Yue Pavillion
Mu Yunyao nodded and brought over a teacup by the side . After taking a sip, her hand slipped for some reason as she poured the remaining tea onto the agreement . Instantly, the ink on it turned blurry, and it was no longer possible to see what the handwriting was .
Tan Lin’s eyelids jumped . He immediately reached out to grab the written agreement, but the paper stuck in the water, and he could not pick it up . “Why are you so careless? Prepare some brush and paper . I will write a new copy right away . ”
“I’m afraid the paper and brush in Jin Xiu Garden have all used up . ”
“How is it possible for paper and brush all used up? Are you kidding me?” Tan Lin suddenly stopped moving . He finally noticed that something wasn’t right and stared fixedly at Mu Yunyao .
Mu Yunyao chuckled and casually threw the teacup on the ground . “Aren’t you playing with me, Lord Tan?” He even said that he would take all the credit to go to Ni Yun Fang . If she agreed, Tan Lin would push her to be a scapegoat! Did he really think that she was as easy to coax as a child?
Tan Lin suddenly raised his head and looked at Mu Yunyao angrily . “Don’t forget, when you were imparting the embroidery needle technique, the contract you signed was still with me!”
Mu Yunyao didn’t care in the slightest . “At that time, in order to avoid leaving any traps on the paper, you wrote the contents of the written agreement . The words on it were naturally written by you as well . ”
“You left a handprint below with your name!”
Tan Lin took out the written agreement with trembling fingers . After opening it, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes and see that the place where Mu Yunyao’s name initially signed under the written agreement had already become a blur . Even the seal of her hand had already melted, and it was hard to see a single trace of it . “You little bitch, I’ll kill you!” He forced to the point where he had no other choice, and now Tan Lin only wants to drag Mu Yunyao down with him .
Without knowing, Liu Liang had already appeared behind Mu Yunyao . Seeing Tan Lin approach Mu Yunyao with a crazed expression, he directly kicked him to the ground . The longsword in his hand was out of its sheath as he charged towards Tan Lin’s throat .
Mu Yunyao stood up and carefully arranged the hem of her dress, “Lord Tan, you covered the sky with one hand in Huai’an City and helped your son Tan Bawang cover up his crimes . I wonder how many women he has ruined so many . How many have come to an end like today? Isn’t it because of the routine?”
“I didn’t do anything . You don’t have to spit on me!”
“What have you done or haven’t done? Save it in prison to explain . Liu Liang, see the guests out . ”
“Mu Yunyao, how are you any better than me? You bitch, you black-hearted bitch! As long as I don’t die, I will definitely kill you!”
Steward Qin stood by the door and ordered with a cold face, “It is outrageous to make such a commotion in the morning . Men, chase this madman out!”
Yu Yi came forward with the guards and tossed Tan Lin out of Jin Xiu Garden .
Mu Yunyao bowed to Steward Qin, “I’ll have to trouble Shopkeeper Qin . ”
“Young lady is too polite . If you meet another lunatic like him in the future, You can tell me to throw them outside the courtyard so as not to cause too much trouble . ”
“Alright . ”
Steward Qin glanced at Liu Liang and could not help but smile as he said, “There is only Liu Liang by Miss Mu’s side . Isn’t that a bit too little? If Miss Mu continues to order me around, it will be hard to avoid getting busy . How about I send a few more people to follow you?”
Liu Liang’s eyes landed on Steward Qin lightly . The chilliness in them was exceptionally turbulent .
Steward Qin was still smiling and did not put him in his eyes at all . Compared to Wang Ye, this Liu Liang was still far from enough . However, it was still a potential threat . If he could eliminate him in advance, there would be less complicated .
However, Mu Yunyao shook her head . Compared with the people introduced by Steward Qin, she believed in Liu Liang even more: “Many thanks for Steward Qin’s good intentions! However, Liu Liang is enough for me . I don’t have anything I need to send him . If I need anything in the future, I will definitely come to find you . ”
“Alright . ”
In the next few days, there was a storm in Jingling City . The Rising Cai Yue Pavillion, which had been a thriving day in and day out, collapsed to the ground with a government seal placed on it . No one was allowed to approach it .
The ladies of each residence had ordered people to take out the booklet of beauties from the Cai Yue Pavilion and burn them . Even the custom-made clothes from them had destroyed, leaving not a single trace behind .
All sorts of rumors began to spread, and eventually, they all converged together . “Miss, this servant heard the news in the city that Tan Lin, the owner of Cai Yue Pavilion, had secretly collected money in the name of teaching the embroidery needle technique . He even had sold some old and low-grade quality cloth to the people, which had a terrible impact . Moreover, in Huai’an City, Tan Lin had colluded with the local officials to help Tan Bawang burying crime and forced many ladies of Huai’an City to death . Now that the matter had opened, many of the victims have reported it one after another . They are asking for justice from the authorities . ”
Mu Yunyao smiled and took a piece of dried meat to tease the Snow Fox in the cage . “These rumors could put together so quickly, must be someone to guide it . No matter how it passed around in the city, our days are still going to go on . Go and get prepare . Ni Yun Fang will be busy . ”
Jin Qiao was a bit aggrieved: “At the beginning, those ladies and ladies were chasing after Cai Yue Pavilion and did not even pay any attention to Ni Yun Fang’s opening . Now, how can they have the nerve to come back here and buy clothes?”
Mu Yunyao saw that the Snow Fox in the cage still refused to give in and directly threw the dried meat out of its reach . She clapped her hands and said, “I don’t want them to feel embarrassed . We’re opening the door to do business for silver, not for face . As long as they’re willing to come, I’m willing to sell clothes to them . After all, who can go against silver?”
The face of those wealthy families was worth more than anything, but if it wasn’t worth much, then they could rip it off and stamp their feet on the ground in the blink of an eye . Often, all they saw was the word ‘benefit . After all, they cant spend the face like silver .
As expected, the next day, as soon as Ni Yun Fang opened, the guest began to flow back and forth .
Mu Yunyao distributed Ni Yun’s beauty booklet and received many replies the same day . Her words filled with praise, so much so that she looked a little embarrassed .
She stayed in Ni Yun Fang for the entire day and helped to entertain the more important Ladies . After settling the affairs there, she pushed the matter to Su Qing and Ding Yuelan .
In the greenhouse, there were a few peonies that were ready to bloom . The flower bud was so big, and one could vaguely see layers upon layers of petals inside, which were remarkably gorgeous .
Mu Yunyao carefully planted the peony in a flower pot and had someone bring a pot over to Yue Wang .
Yue Wang looked at the peony in the pot, and a smile flashed in his eyes . This peony was the most flourishing one in the greenhouse . Previously, he had hinted at Mu Yunyao several times with his words that he hoped to be admired by this peony . He never expected that she would really send it over for him .
“Fourth Master, may I trouble you to arrange for a few men to escort Peony to Wu Minzhi’s residence . ”
“Yes, I will get someone to arrange it . ”
