Mu Yunyao was in an extremely good mood when they returned to the Moon's Pride Pavilion. She had just sat down to drink some tea when she heard Jin Lan come to report that Second Madam had arrived.
Mu Yunyao smirked and said, "Quickly go and invite Second Aunt in."
Second Wife Qi soon walked in with a bright smile on her face. It was obvious that she was in a very cheerful mood.
Mu Yunyao stepped forward to pay her respects, but before she could kneel, the Second Madam helped her up, "Quickly sit down and rest. There's no need to be so courteous, have the wounds on your face healed?"
Mu Yunyao insisted on finishing her courtesies before sitting to the side, "Second Aunt is here, how can you not greet her? The wound on my face is all right now. " The smile on Second Madam's face grew wider. Seeing Mu Yunyao's face with the bluish-purple palm imprint, she couldn't help but sigh. "This bluish-purple looks very serious, how does it look like it's okay? I've got a new bottle of cream here. It's very useful in getting rid of these bruises. I'll let you have it later. "
"I'll wipe it for you."
"Thank you, second aunt."
"Big Sister Su You is infected with the cold? "I've been busy these past few days, and I actually didn't know about this news. How about I go with second aunt to visit Big Sister Su You?"
"Alright, that girl has always been thinking about you as a little sister!" She used to be the youngest of the children in the house, but now that you're here, she'll be addicted to being an older sister. "
Mu Yunyao raised the corner of her lips, "That's great, I wish there were more older sisters."
Second Madam looked around and asked, "Where's Sister Su Qing? Why don't we see her? Is your throat better now?"
"Please forgive me, second aunt. My mother has just finished drinking the medicine and is resting. If she wants her throat to return to normal, I'm afraid she will need to rest for a while."
"I've also heard about the fire at Baohua Temple. It's said that several houses in a row were burnt down. It's terrifying to hear. To be able to protect themselves from the fire is already a blessing from the heavens. Your voice can be slowly recuperated."
"Yes, I'm very glad too."
Mu Yunyao raised her eyes and smiled at Second Madam, "There are many coincidences in this world, and few at best. As for the specifics, it still needs Sir Shen to thoroughly investigate them before you speak of them."
There were no outsiders in the room, so Second Madam spoke with less scruples than before, "Yao'er, I know your mind is sharp and is not something an ordinary woman can handle. Even if you have the authority of a housekeeper, I don't know how long you'll be able to hold it in your hands."
"What are you saying, second aunt? Since grandmother has already given you the authority of the housekeeper, as long as she doesn't open her mouth to take it back, you will naturally always be in charge of it."
After I obtained the authority of the housekeeper, I found out that for more than ten years, this house has been controlled by my eldest sister-in-law and has long been governed like an iron bucket. I was only in charge of the keys to the house.
Mu Yunyao's eyes moved. "Grandmother can relax and hand over the authority of the housekeeper to Second Aunt. Then naturally, everything will be decided by Second Aunt. It doesn't look too good, you can just give the order to change it."
Since the head of the household had been changed to the head of the household, the staff of the household had to change as well. If everything went according to the old rules, didn't that mean that the second madame held the authority of the household?
Second Madam Ye smiled and took a sip of her tea. "If it were any ordinary servant, I would have changed. However, many of them are the seniors under your grandmother, so naturally they can't be easily traded."
Mu Yunyao's eyes trembled as her heart trembled. She focused her attention on the first wife and Su Yuyi, so it was hard for her to ignore the old madam Sun. However, after thinking carefully about the matters in the manor, it was not hard to see the old madam's shadow.
Most of the time, the first wife was a spear in the old lady's hands. That seemingly good-natured old lady was the one who was truly unfathomable in the residence.
"Yunyao, what's wrong?"
"I suddenly thought of something and it made second aunt smile. Since there are some old people who cannot move, then I'll move the places I can move first. It's not important to look at the details, but many things can shake my foundation."
Second Madam smiled. "Alright, take your time. "Look at me, do you find it annoying to talk about all this stuff?" How could that be? To be able to talk more with second aunt, that's what I wish for! " Mu Yunyao knew that this was Second Madam's secret reminder to her, so she made a note of this favor. Next up, she'll take it as a reward by helping Su You recuperate, "Second Aunt, I want to visit Big Sister Su You.
Do you know if it's appropriate now? "
"What's wrong with that? Let's go, I have a new tea set. You'll definitely like it."
The West District was much more lively than before. Many servants came and went, waiting to listen to the Second Madam's orders.
Just as he arrived at the door of Su You's room, a burst of medicinal smell wafted over. The smell was slightly pungent and filled with bitterness.
Mu Yunyao followed the Second Madam into the room. She heard the sound of a medicinal bowl being broken, followed by a wave of suppressed vomiting.
Second Madam quickly went forward and caught Su You, who was beside the bed. She looked anxious. Didn't you feel better yesterday? Why are you so serious now? "
The maidservants carried water basins, towels, and spittoons. It took some effort before they were able to help Su You sort them out.
Su You leaned against the Second Madam's chest. His breathing was slow and weak, and his cheeks were a sickly red. He was so thin that it looked like he was just a skeleton. It was unbearable to look at him.
Because of her anxiety, beads of sweat appeared on Second Madam's forehead. At this moment, she was frowning deeply, worry and anxiousness overflowing from her face. After Su You's breathing stabilized slightly, she slowly put her down and pulled a thick blanket over her.
"Yunyao, today Su You's situation is a bit bad, I'm afraid I can't even talk to you. "It doesn't taste good here, I'll send you out first and wait for her to recover some other day …"
Mu Yunyao frowned and walked up to Su You's bed. She stretched out her hand to pull away some of the covering, "Second Aunt, why don't you cover big sister Su You with such a thick blanket? Isn't she hot?"
Second Madam hastily went forward and covered the blanket again. "The imperial physician has repeatedly told me not to catch a cold anymore, so I specially found a thick blanket. Su You has the cold, so it would be faster for him to cover himself with sweat." Mu Yunyao reached out to grab Second Madam's wrist and pulled her away firmly, "Second Aunt treated me and mother with sincerity, so I naturally want to return the favor. If you really are doing this for the good of Big Sister Su You, why don't you change a thin blanket."
