Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 155

Provide Free Porridge for The Poor

”Yunyao greets Governor Zhang and Madam . Greetings Lord Cao, and Lady Jin . ” At the moment, she would naturally change her tune after officially acknowledging each other as relatives . Therefore, Mu Yunyao would only address them as Lady Cao and Lady Jin .

”Yaoʼer, get up quickly . ” Cao Yunnian looked at her with satisfaction in his eyes .

Lady Jin also stood up and brought Su Qing to greet Governor Zhang and Madam .

The governorʼs wife personally helped Su Qing up . Her attitude was extremely gentle, ”Madam Su, there is no need to be so courteous . Please take your seat quickly! Today is the most important day . We will talk together some other day . ”

”Yes . Thank you, Madam Governor . ”

The etiquette for recognizing the relatives was actually not that complicated . Yin Hong placed the praying mat . Then, Mu Yunyao kowtowed to Cao Yunnian and Lady Jin to offer them tea .

The two of them gave a lot of faces, took a big gulp after receiving the teacup, and then ordered someone to bring the tray over . Cao Yunnian removed the red cloth to reveal a golden bowl, a pair of golden chopsticks, a golden spoon, and a longevity lock .

Cao Yunnian passed the items to Mu Yunyao and said, ”From today onwards, you will be the adopted daughter of my wife and I . Your adoptive mother and I hope that you can live a long life in peace . ”

Looking at this exquisite set of things, Mu Yunyaoʼs eyes full with a genuine smile . ”Yunyao kowtows to thank Father and Mother . ”

”Alright, get up quickly . ”

Mu Yunyao stood up: ”Father, Mother, daughter have also prepared something . I hope that Father and Mother will not dislike it . ”

Jin Lan and Jin Qiao came in with a tray each .

Looking at the items on the tray, Lady Jin was slightly surprised, but then her eyes lit up . ”Child, because itʼs almost the new year, so the selection day is particularly close . It has only been four or five days, why did you prepare so many things?” There are two sets of clothes for men and women on the tray, that prepared for Cao Yunnian and Lady Jin . The selected materials are very luxurious . Once the accessories complete, if you look at them individually, you can see that some of the embroideries are particularly exquisite . No matter how fast Mu Yunyaoʼs embroidery was, she had to do it day and night .

The governorʼs wife couldnʼt help but reveal an envious expression, ”Yunyao, this child is truly filial . You two can consider yourselves blessed . At the banquet later, put on these two clothes and let us admire you a little . ”

Of course, Lady Jin was willing to give Mu Yunyao face . She hurriedly nodded and agreed, ”Alright, Iʼll go change in a while . ”

Su Qing faces this kind of situation for the first time . Su Qing was a little helpless in her heart, but it was fortunate that Lady Jin treated her so intimately, and Mu Yunyao appeared to be especially dignified and proper . The crowd now held a bit more respect towards Su Qing and speaking to her in an extremely gentle manner, which made her feel more at ease .

At this moment, there were porridge kitchens on the various main streets of Jingling City . Steward Qin had temporarily closed Bu Xian Luo, and lead Wei Yi, Yun Chun, and the others to help cooking in porridge kitchen .

The embroidery ladies of Ni Yun Fang were not idle either . Some of them helped to prepare the porridge, while others took out the leftover clothes from the store and distributed them to the impoverished families . Seeing the huge pot, and the bags of food piled high behind them, the entire Jingling City was sensational . In the past, there would also be people who would give out porridge when they celebrate the Laba Festival, but most of them would only act it . They were carrying two buckets of porridge and giving it to the wandering beggars to show their kindness and spread their good reputation .

How could there be such a kind method of giving porridge? The commonerʼs lives were always tight . Although this year, their lives were slightly better due to the embroidery needle techniques that Mu Yunyao had taught them, the weather had suddenly turned colder . They needed to buy winter clothes but didnʼt have enough silver . At this moment, they thought they could save some money, so they took their bowl and chopsticks, went to the streets to line up to receive the porridge . When the commoners got closer to the porridge kitchen and saw the porridge, they couldnʼt help but open their eyes wide . Burning firewood was still placed under the temporarily built stove . A large pot of thick porridge was gurgling and bubbling . As each bubble spread out, a rich fragrance wafted into the air . Porridge is even having more beneficial . The materials are glutinous rice, barley lotus seed, lily, red date, millet, walnut, lentil, etc . With a slight count, there were about a dozen or so materials inside .

Steward Qin smiled as he filled a bowl for the first person who came to receive the porridge: ”Old Man, take your time to drink . If it is not enough, you can drink it again . Just pay attention to line up . ”

The old man who received the bowl of porridge beamed, ”No need, no need . People wonʼt be able to eat much when they are old . With this bowl of porridge, Iʼll be able to last me a day!”

Steward Qin was surprised . He took a spoonful of sugar from the wooden bucket beside him and poured it into the Old Manʼs bowl . ”Please enjoy it, Old Man . ”

The Old Man was stunned for a moment before bowed and saluted . ”Thank you, Shopkeeper Qin . Thank you, Lady Jin and Miss Mu . ” Perhaps it was due to the influence of the Old Manʼs behavior, everyone who received the porridge would mutter thanks to Lady Jin and Miss Mu . Even a child who didnʼt even know how to speak, expressed his gratitude while holding the bowl and stumbling, which makes Shopkeeper Qin very moved .

There were two pots in each kitchen . The wood burned vigorously to cook the porridge, and the speed increased . Even so, it was still not comparable to the pace of the people who received the porridge .

The majority of the people who received the rice porridge gave up their queue position, stood at the corner of the street with bowls in their hands, and began to drink . For a time, the several streets filled with the fragrance of porridge . The people were talking to each other while drinking porridge, cheering, and laughing as if the entire of Jingling City became warm because of this porridge .

Inside Cao Familyʼs Manor, the atmosphere was so lively . The male and female guests did not rush to take their seats and instead urged Cao Yunnian and Lady Jin to change the clothes that Mu Yunyao had made . They all knew that Mu Yunyaoʼs embroidery skills were exquisite and that she had spent three months preparing the New Yearʼs gift . Now they have the opportunity to appreciate her craftsmanship, and naturally they didnʼt want to miss it . After all, this was the first time Mu Yunyao had made a manʼs clothes .

When Cao Yunnian and Lady Jin changed their clothes and came out from the living room, the lively hall suddenly quieted down .

Cao Yunnian was wearing a dark blue robe embroidered with a dark and mysterious pattern on the collar . There was a cluster of monarch orchids pattern on the hem, and the orchids were vivid and lifelike . As he walked, they seemed to gently unfold the branches and leaves of the orchids, giving him an indescribably gentle and elegant feeling . Cao Yunnian seemed to be ten years younger .

Lady Jin, who was standing to one side, was even more outstanding . Her blue dress embroidered with clusters of pink peonies that extended from her skirt to her waist, covering her bulging belly flawlessly . It didnʼt make her look bloated at all . Instead, it added a sense of elegance to her body .

The most specific thing was that there were two dark blue colored butterflies embroidered on the side of the peony . The butterfliesʼ wings stretched out as they danced around the peony .

The two sets of clothes looked so gorgeous when placed alone . Now that they placed together, it gave off the impression of a dark blue butterfly on Lady Jinʼs body, fluttering past Cao Yunnianʼs orchids . The governorʼs wife looked at it for a long time before suddenly praising, ”Flower Butterfly . Lord Cao and Lady Jin are indeed a loving couple . ”
