Chapter 45
They only had Liu Liang to protect them . A dragon would never be able to overpower a local snake . If the Tan family were to surround them, they would not be able to escape .
(T/N: A dragon may be strong, but it can never defeat someone in its own domain . Can set traps, call backup etc . )
Liu Liang was frozen as he saw the two of them run away . Only when Mu Yunyao looked back and hurriedly wave at him did he start to run too . His usually emotionless eyes had a hint of laughter in them . It was gone in the next moment, however .
The two boatmen had already returned . Mu Yunyao got onto the boat and said, “Let’s go quickly, I just saw the tax collector heading in this direction . ”
“Ah, go, quick, quick . ” The boatmen did not need her command . They immediately untied the rope and got the boat away from the dock in a flash .
Mu Yunyao, who was sitting in the boat cabin, was extremely happy . If that Colour Moon Shop’s young master were to really go and get his revenge, things would become even more interesting .
After Su Qing processed everything that had just happened, she examined Mu Yunyao’s body . ”Yao Er, did you get hurt, you’re alright, right? You didn’t get injured?”
Mu Yunyao, who had been afraid that Su Qing would start to scold her, froze . Her eyes became crescent moons as she gave a big smile . “Mother, don’t worry, I’m fine . ”
“That’s good, that’s good . ” Su Qing brought Mu Yunyao into her embrace and gently massaged her hair . Yao Er had always been a kind girl, she would never do anything to harm someone else . It was that evil man’s fault, forcing Yao Er to go to such lengths .
Su Qing was completely unaware that she had started to get used to making excuses for Mu Yunyao’s actions . Mu Yunyao giggled as she leaned into Su Qing’s embrace . She felt that the negative emotions that had been suffocating her heart for the longest time were starting to dissipate . It seems that to completely regain her inner peace, she had to find a way to destroy the Su family and Jin Wang .
On Zhuian City dock, a group of servants holding sticks arrived . They checked the entire place for half a day but were unable to find Mu Yunyao . Tan Cuckold seethed, “If we can’t find that little wrench here, then go to the Capital . Spring Embroidery, Han family, I will definitely get my revenge!”
After another half a month, the boat had went across Zhuai river and two cities . They entered Jingling river and slowly stopped at Jingling City dock .
Mu Yunyao helped Su Qing to stand . She looked at the buildings, her eyes bright . “Jingling City, we have come . ”
Jingling City, the city that she had chosen out of all the others!
She gave the remaining payment to the boatmen and the three of them went onto the dock .
Su Qing was happy yet also a little nervous, “Yao Er, are we going to live here from today onwards?”
“Yes, Mother . This place is North of Suzhou City and Yangzhou City, South of Hangzhou Yangtze river . Transport is good and the atmosphere is more on the peaceful side . This place is most fitting for us . ”
“En, we are foreigners to this place, we must be careful . Yao Er, you……you must be level-headed, do you understand?” Don’t make a big scene out of a small matter .
Mu Yunyao quickly nodded her head, “Yes, Mother . Don’t worry, I will be very careful . ”
It was currently noon . Mu Yunyao and company found an inn to have their meals and went into their rooms to rest . They slept till the sky got dark . When they woke up, they were much more lively .
They slept too much in the afternoon, causing them to be unable to sleep at night . Mu Yunyao and Su Qing lay together on the bed and started to chat .
“Mother, what kind of house do you like? Although we don’t have much money now, you can still choose a house that is to your liking . After I earn enough money, I will buy you the best house . Even the concubines in the palace won’t be as lucky as you . ”
Su Qing couldn’t help but laugh . “Alright, Mother will wait for you . ”
“En, leave it all to me!” Mu Yunyao patted her chest, looking very proud of herself . “Mother, quick, tell me, what type of house do you like?”
Su Qing laughed even harder . She truly felt that her daughter was the only gift that she would ever want . “Mother once heard that there was book that included a gold house . What if Mother wants a gold house?”
“Alright! Mother, just you wait, not long later Yao Er will bring you into a gold house to live in!”
“Mother shall wait, then . ”
“Mother, stop changing the subject, you still haven’t told me what type of house you liked……”
