Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi
Chapter 11: Settling Yunsu and Yunzhou, meeting Zhao Huaian again
At noon the next day, the sky was full of tenderness, and the warm sunlight fell on Mu Yao's body, making her feel warm and comfortable, so that she wanted to take another nap.
Yun Su and Yun Zhou had prepared a sumptuous breakfast which they had reheated over and over again. Now that lunch was also ready, there was still no movement from inside the room. The two of them were anxiously wandering outside the door.
"Brother, will Mr. Mu be okay in there?" Yun Zhou asked worriedly.
"The door to the inner room is not open, we must not disturb you." Yun Su also wanted to go forward and knock on the door, but Master Mu had said before, so he didn't want to break the rules.
Most of the sons of Dayun are hardworking, and no matter what industry they go to, they all uphold the fine tradition of going to bed late and getting up early.
It is not easy for a man to survive. If he becomes lazy and is overtaken by others, it will be even more difficult to overcome the three huge challenges of getting married, wealth and a career in politics.
Take Yun Su for example, after the detoxification, he felt full of strength. Reborn, he woke up early at the hour of Yin. There were some books in the hall of Sui Garden, and he flipped through them casually. This was a habit he had developed over the years, and it was because of this that he was ranked as one of the four young masters of Shangjing. Yun Zhou was dragged up by Yun Su just after the hour of Mao to read and learn characters for half an hour, and then he carefully prepared meals.
How could they understand Mu Yao's life as a stay-at-home girl in the 23rd century? In Mu Yao's original world, staying up all night was commonplace. Ten o'clock in the evening was the beginning of the day for her. It was normal to go to bed at three or four in the morning, and go to school at seven or eight in the morning.
At Yunqi, there are no classes to attend, no homework to hand in, no career to inherit, no parties, no best friends, only endless creation. Now that I have enough money and feel at ease, it is not too much to sleep for a few days after staying up late for half a month.
There were a few dull knocks on the door. Yun Su was afraid of disturbing the young master, so he hurried to open the door.
Xu Qingcheng looked at Yun Su in shock: "Brother Yun, why are you here?"
Xu Qingcheng painted a painting called "Birds Singing in the Stream". He borrowed from Mu Yao's painting style and integrated his own insights into his painting skills. Except that the color tone was slightly less bright, he thought that there was a certain improvement in other aspects. He took it to Mu Yao for appreciation, but he didn't expect that it was Yun Su who opened the door.
Yun Su hadn't expected to run into an acquaintance so soon. He had to face what he had to face. He couldn't just shut himself up in the courtyard and act like a coward. He lowered his eyes and sighed, "It's a long story."
Yun Su briefly described what happened, and Xu Qingcheng was surprised that Mu Yao actually knew medical knowledge. Yun Su's illness was known to everyone in the upper class. Minister Yun visited many famous doctors for Yun Su's illness but to no avail, and finally went the wrong way and ruined the family's century-old foundation.
Mu Yao was able to cure Yun Su, so her medical skills must have reached the pinnacle. She was young but had many unique skills. Xu Qingcheng found that there were more and more mysteries about Mu Yao. Who was she? Xu Qingcheng felt a strong curiosity for the first time.
Xu Qingcheng knew Yun Su's predicament very well. Even if he left the pawnbroker business, his future life would be difficult. The once high-ranking Master Yuzhu has now fallen into the dust. Without the support of the family and the powerful, it is difficult for him to turn things around in Shangjing. What's more, there are threats from Consort He and the Fourth Prince behind him. Suiyuan is definitely not a paradise for him and Yun Zhou.
Mu Yao has now become Xu Qingcheng's Achilles' heel. He would not bear to let Mu Yao get hurt even if it means putting himself in danger.
"Brother Yun, have you ever thought about leaving Dayun with Xiaozhou?" Xu Qingcheng asked tentatively.
"I have a friend in Beiming, how about I recommend you there?" Xu Qingcheng continued. He and Xie Ci were from the same school, so he could write a letter of recommendation for Yun Su, allowing him to change his identity and live in Beiming permanently.
Yun Su knew Xu Qingcheng's concerns. He smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Mu has given me a new life. Xiao Zhou and I swore to be loyal to him for the rest of our lives and never break our promise. Besides, my Yun family was convicted because we collaborated with the enemy Nan Yue. The emperor's grace was so great that he did not exterminate all nine clans. If Xiao Zhou and I go to Bei Ming, rumors will spread and cause trouble again."
Xu Qingcheng frowned, and had no better advice for the moment.
Yun Zhou heard Yun Su's words from afar, and hurried over and shouted: "My brother and I will not leave. Master Mu is a good man. He saved my brother's life. My brother and I will be loyal to Master Mu for the rest of our lives and will never leave." Yun Zhou finally settled down with his brother. He would not leave with such a good young master. Moreover, the toxins in his brother's body had not been completely cleared. Master Mu was a more powerful doctor than the medical saint "Jian Xin". Even if he and his brother died, they would not leave Master Mu.
"Who's leaving?" Mu Yao's lazy voice sounded. The noise outside was so loud that she couldn't even go back to sleep.
Yun Zhou stepped forward and hugged Mu Yao and said anxiously: "Master Mu, please don't chase my brother and me away. You are a good person and a miracle doctor. We don't want to leave you."
Mu Yao was confused by Yun Zhou's words. After learning what happened, she couldn't help but worry. Alas, the one who knows her is Xu Qingcheng.
After Xu Qingcheng pondered for a while, he said, "I have a villa in Wutai County, and I'd like to lend it to Brother Yun. My eldest brother also has a cosmetics shop there, which can also be handed over to Brother Yun to manage. What do you think, Brother Yun?"
Yun Su lowered his eyes and thought deeply. Yun Zhou choked with anxiety and said, "Wutai County is in Mudan Prefecture, which is far away from here. We don't want to leave Master Mu." Yun Zhou really likes Mu Yao. Master Mu treats him well. He and his brother feel at ease following Master Mu. The stable life that he finally got was about to vanish just when he was looking forward to it. Yun Zhou didn't want to.
Yun Su struggled for a long time, and then he raised his head and said, "Xiao Zhou and I are willing to go to Wutai County, but Master Mu, I..." The words came to his lips but he couldn't say them. Will I repay you in the next life? Or...? He looked at Mu Yao with a complicated expression. Yun Zhou had long regarded Mu Yao as the pillar of his life, but now he had to stay away from her. He was a criminal, and the road ahead was full of thorns. How could he bring trouble to his benefactor?
Mu Yao knew that it was best for them to leave. But now, she couldn't bear it. She felt like a knife was hanging in her heart, suffocating.
As one of the top ten candidates for the succession to a wealthy family in the world, Mu Yao has been practicing calmness and self-control since she was a child. She must make the best decision in the shortest time.
After a moment, Mu Yao said calmly, "Just do as Brother Xu said. You two can stay at the villa in Wutai County temporarily. I will plan to open a restaurant in Yangming Town or Shangjing. If it goes well, I will open a branch in Wutai County soon. You and Xiaozhou will be in charge of it then. Don't worry about the detoxification. I will go find the two herbs in the next few days and send someone to deliver them to you when they are prepared. I will go to the government office to cancel the slavery contract and return you to good status."
Yun Su and Yun Zhou were shocked beyond words. Yun Su pulled Xiao Zhou to bow and kowtow with gratitude. Mu Yao was the most precious benefactor in their lives. Even if Mu Yao asked him to die now, he would be happy to do so.
Xu Qingcheng sighed at the fate that Yunsu and Yunzhou met Muyao, who seemed to be at the end of their rope, but they finally found a way out. He looked at Muyao and said with a smile: "Ayao, you don't have to be so troublesome. Let me handle the removal of slavery. I'll send the antidote by express horse." Xu Qingcheng didn't want Muyao to be involved in anything related to Yunsu, so he had to bear the risk. After all, his mother was the eldest princess of the dynasty, and he had to be cautious of the imperial concubine.
Yun Su and Yun Zhou thanked Xu Qingcheng again. This road was the best choice for them now. Although they had temporarily left Master Mu, Master Mu would still need them in the future and would not abandon them. Thinking of this, the two felt much more at ease.
Soon Xu Qingcheng got the good name registered and sent Wang Hao to take them to Wutai County. Mu Yao was very grateful to Xu Qingcheng for always thinking about her, and she became more and more dependent on him.
The two of them appreciated "Birdsong Stream" for a long time. Mu Yao found that Xu Qingcheng was particularly good at depicting birds. The two orioles were vivid and lifelike in Xu Qingcheng's painting. If the color was brighter, the image would be fuller. Mu Yao evenly distributed half of the newly developed plant pigment to Xu Qingcheng. There were eight colors in total, one of which was Tiffany blue, which was not available in this world. She renamed it clear water blue.
Xu Qingcheng stared at Mu Yao's special paint and couldn't let it go. He looked up at Mu Yao, and the heat in his eyes wanted to melt her. Why is there such a stunning young man in the world? He hugged Mu Yao and rubbed her tightly in his arms. The unique body fragrance of the young man intoxicated him, and his unparalleled talent made him sink.
Mu Yao was shocked by Xu Qingcheng's actions. An inexplicable throbbing came over her heart, and she only wished for a peaceful and lasting life.
It took a long time for them to separate. Xu Qingcheng said awkwardly: "Ayao, I'm so excited. You always give me surprises. It seems that you are full of countless secrets. No matter how I dig, I can always dig out more treasures. Such amazing talent will surely be famous all over the world. Tell me quickly, what else can't you do?" In Xu Qingcheng's eyes, Mu Yao can do everything.
Mu Yao was speechless and chuckled, "Brother Xu, you think too highly of me. There are so many things I don't know."
The two chatted heart to heart for a long time, and before they knew it, the moon was setting in the west and the moon was rising in the east. Mu Yao suggested going to Zuiweilou for a big meal. She suddenly wanted to eat the steamed preserved meat there, and it was a good opportunity to do some market research.
Zuiweilou is one of the largest restaurants in Yangming Town. It is three stories high, with an antique exterior, carved beams and painted buildings, and a luxurious interior. Customers flow from bottom to top, making it very busy.
They went up to the Jade Pavilion on the third floor. The minimum consumption for this private room was five hundred taels of silver. In order to thank Xu Qingcheng for properly arranging Yun Su and Yun Zhou, Mu Yao insisted on hosting the dinner and ordered all the signature dishes of the restaurant and thirty-year-old peach wine.
The dishes here are bright, rich in flavor, and varied in variety. What impressed Mu Yao the most was a dessert called Lotus Pastry. The peach pink pastry was in the shape of a lotus flower, with a mango stamen as the core. It was magnificent, like a fairy just out of the mud, clean and not coquettish. The taste was distinct, the outermost pastry was sweet and delicious, and the sweetness became stronger as you went deeper. It was a rare delicacy, and Mu Yao gave it a full score.
"Ayao, are you sure about what you mentioned earlier about opening a restaurant?" Xu Qingcheng asked after drinking the last sip of peach blossom wine.
Mu Yao blushed and replied dizzily: "Yes, I want to open a restaurant. Although it is easy to make money from paintings, if there are too many paintings, they will lose their value. Hunger marketing is the most valuable way to maintain value."
Xu Qingcheng found the term "hunger marketing" new, but she guessed its general meaning. She felt that Mu Yao's description was apt, and she couldn't help but admire her even more.
"Little liar, you said there are so many things you can't do, but I think you are also good at business." Xu Qingcheng chuckled. Mu Yao listened to Xu Qingcheng's magnetic and doting tone, and her face became more rosy.
Xu Qingcheng stared at Mu Yao blankly, and suddenly found that the young man in front of her had a little more color. Especially those bright eyes, which showed the delicateness of a girl, not to mention how attractive they were.
Xu Qingcheng looked away and concentrated for a moment, then said slowly: "Ayao, I'll take you to see the shop tomorrow."
Mu Yao perked up when she heard this: "Where are you from?"
Xu Qingcheng smiled and said, "It's a restaurant owned by my eldest brother, called "Shuiyunjian". My eldest brother is just thinking of selling it."
Mu Yao asked curiously: "Why? Is business bad?"
Xu Qingcheng sighed and said, "My eldest brother Xu Wenchen has been doing business for many years. He got his start with "Shuiyunjian". He made a lot of money at the beginning, and later he ambitiously opened up other businesses. The cosmetics business in Wutai County is one of them, as well as oil, grain and jewelry. A few years ago, he listened to the advice of some friends around him and started a bodyguard business. At that time, the family opposed it and felt that the risk was too great, but my eldest brother insisted on doing it. As a result, one of the businesses encountered bandits during the escort, and my second brother happened to go to help because of a lack of manpower, and they were in danger together. He saved his life, but was seriously injured and paralyzed ever since. My eldest brother felt guilty about this, and he had no intention of taking care of the business, which gradually declined. The escort suffered heavy losses, and my eldest brother lost a lot of money, and the family also subsidized a lot. Now my eldest brother is going to marry Shen Guinu of the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion, and he has no time to take care of the business, so he is thinking about selling these properties."
