Chapter 15
“You……what are you going to do?” Li Shi’s voice was sharp yet hoarse .
“Calm down, I’m not yet done with Zhang Caizhu, so you are still safe . ”
Li Shi swallowed and stared hard at Su Qing . “You unlucky thing, why are you not holding her back?”
Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled a little . She quickly turned to Su Qing . The hate in her heart was too strong and made her forget to care for her Mother’s feelings . Would Mother hate her?
Seeing Mu Yunyao’s begging gaze, Su Qing’s heart melted . “Yao Er had always been pure and kind, it was all your fault for making her do things like this . Yao Er, don’t be afraid, Mother supports you . No matter what you do, Mother will always support you . ”
(T/N: I kinda wish my Mom would say that when she sees my grades……ok sorry, moving on . )
Mu Yunyao leapt into Su Qing’s embrace and cuddled her happily . Her embrace was so warm and soft, she felt like she would accept her everything . “Mother, I’m so happy you’re here . ”
“Silly child . ”
Yang Shi came out of the house crying, raising many people’s attention . When they found out what happened, the hatred against Li Shi rose even further . It was not as if there weren’t any difficult people in the village . But as difficult as Li Shi? No, she was the only one .
At the other side, Zhang Caizhu was very anxious . He had already made a deal with Li Shi to buy Su Qing and Mu Yunyao . But after a good night’s sleep, he woke up to find out that the Mu’s house had burnt to the ground and Li Shi’s leg was broken . Did that not just mean that his plan will fail!
As he walked in circles, the butler Dingshan walked up to him, his hand holding a piece of paper . “Sir, quick, look!”
“Tonight, at the west house . The sender is Shiso……What does Shiso mean?” Zhang Caizhu furrowed his eyebrows .
“Shiso……ah! It’s Su! Sir, this must have been sent by Miss Su……”
(T/N: Ok so Shiso is another name for beefsteak plant . I couldn’t bring myself to put in the term beefsteak plant . The original name of the sender was 桂荏 “Gui ren” . I don’t really get why but this “Gui ren” come with the word “Su” . I’m sorry, but the site that explained this, explained in such a way that it sounded like a poem and I couldn’t understand a thing . I’m not sure if this sounds familiar but this is a case of “I understand every single word yet when they are put together in a sentence, I cannot seem to understand it . ” Sorry . My Chinese is terrible . )
When he heard Su Qing, Zhang Caizhu immediately smiled . “It must be, it must be . ” When he thought of Su Qing’s soft and gentle look, he felt saliva dripping out of his mouth . And that Mu Yunyao, that skin of hers, it was even softer and juicier than tofu……
“Zishi, Zishi, go and get my best clothes, tonight will be a happy night!”
Mu Yunyao carefully grinded the herbs into powder and carefully wrapped it up with a handkerchief .
“Yao Er, what are you doing?” Su Qing stared at the herbs on the floor . She had never seen these species before .
“Mother, I’m hungry, please make some food for me . ” Mu Yunyao stood up and hugged Su Qing’s waist . She wriggled around in her embrace and acted spoiled .
“Alright, Mother will do it now . ”
Li Shi’s entire body was hot from the fever . Her voice was hoarse, “Su Qing, get me some water!” When she saw that Mu Yunyao had no reaction, she sighed in relief .
Su Qing held a cup of warm water and walked closer . Just when she was about to give it to Li Shi, Mu Yunyao took it from her . “Mother, how did you know that I was thirsty, go and make some food please, I’m about to die from hunger . ”
“Mu Yunyao, are you trying to let your Grandma die of thirst?”
“If you are thirsty, go and pour yourself!” Mu Yunyao’s heart shone with hatred that went deep into the bones . If not for her, her Mother would not have died in such a terrible state! And even after her own leg was broken, Li Shi still treated her terribly . No matter how much she begged, Li Shi would not even give her water . Even the food, Li Shi would throw to food onto the floor and make her eat off the floor like a dog! Till now, she could still hear Li Shi’s laughing .
“You little……” Li Shi was about to insult her when a single glance by Mu Yunyao caused her to swallow her words .
Mu Yunyao laughed coldly, when dealing with people like Li Shi, you have to be more cruel than her . She caressed the medicinal powder in her hands, her eyes calm .
She gained the ability to recognise medicinal herbs when she entered the Jin Wang residence . She had learned from the poison lady .
And tonight, she will be sending people to the netherworld!
