Chapter 223 Young and Promising

Su Jiuyue and the others looked at each other with smiles.

Wu Yu waved his hands repeatedly and looked at Liu Ruyan affectionately.

"Madam, please don't talk nonsense. The delicacies from the mountains and the sea are not as good as the bowl of cold water you gave me!"

Wu Xiaoyu bluntly exposed: "I don't know who vomited the food my mother cooked and caused her to run away from home..."

Everyone knows about this.

Hearing what Wu Xiaoyu said, the corners of Li and Su Jiuyue's mouth curled up, but they tried their best to suppress it.

Lin Qingqing couldn't help it.

"Pfft."

Feeling that the timing was bad, he covered his mouth in embarrassment to hide it.

Liu Ruyan blushed slightly and glared at Wu Yu.

"Humph!"

"Who made my Yan'er unhappy?"

At this time, another person came outside the yard.

Su Jiuyue looked over.

It was an old woman who walked in supported by her maid.

Gems sparkled in the old woman's carefully coiffed hair.

Her eyebrows were close to the tails of cranes, and she wore an inverted headscarf wrapped around her head, which matched with her silver hair. A emerald green hairpin on her head made her thin face look elegant.

The dress was made of brocade satin, embroidered with an exquisite crabapple flower, and tied with a green printed belt around the waist, which made her look even more elegant.

Her face is kind and majestic, and her brows reveal the wisdom and composure accumulated over the years.

Her words and actions all reveal her elegance and every move she makes is the demeanor of a superior.

Seeing that her eyebrows and eyes are 80% similar to Liu Ruyan, Su Jiuyue guessed secretly.

This person must be Liu Ruyan’s mother, a lady of the first rank, thank you Madam Xie.

When Liu Ruyan saw her mother, she hurried over and took her hand affectionately.

"Mom! How come you have time to come here?"

Lin Qingqing reacted, stepped forward to support her body, and called out: "Thank you, grandma."

Only then did Mrs. Xie see her, her eyes full of kindness.

"Qingqing? Why didn't you say hello when you came? Do you know Yan'er? How is your father?"

Wu Yu glanced at Lin Qingqing.

This girl actually knows my mother-in-law? Who is she?

Liu Ruyan didn't expect this either.

Although my mother is a first-rank lady, she seldom makes friends with others due to her sensitive status.

Not many people know her.

Especially, the people from the Divine Capital.

"Do you know?"

Liu Ruyan asked in confusion.

Old Madam Xie patted her hands and smiled indulgently.

"Haha, she is the youngest daughter of a colleague in Shendu. She gave my colleague a lot of headaches in Shendu."

Lin Qingqing stuck out her tongue.

"Thank you grandma!"

Seeing her expression, Old Madam Xie added with a smile.

"But that's how young people should be! I think it's good this way. Those young men from noble families who only know how to recite poems and compose music are so boring!"

Lin Qingqing immediately agreed.

"That's right! I'm just being straightforward!"

After saying this, he realized he had said something wrong and quickly covered his mouth!

The old lady looked behind her.

There were two women, one big and one small, both of whom were good-looking and likable at first sight!

"Who are these two? Are they guests of your house?"

After she asked, Liu Ruyan remembered that she seemed to have forgotten to introduce someone.

Immediately annoyed.

"Yes, this is Miss Su Jiuyue, the owner of Yunxiaolou Suwei that I mentioned to you."

"This is her mother, her last name is Li."

Su Jiuyue and Li came forward to greet him.

"Old lady."

The old lady nodded, took a step forward, and lovingly took Su Jiuyue's hand.

"Little girl, I know you. Thanks to you, Yan'er is safe! His Majesty said that you are kind and compassionate, and you deserve it!"

The old lady’s palms were warm and thick, and Su Jiuyue did not reject being held by her.

He smiled slightly and supported himself again.

"The old lady is overly praised."

Although she did not like the complicated ancient etiquette, she knew it in her heart.

In this ancient time when men were the most important, Madam Xie was able to earn the title of first-rank imperial edict as a woman. She must have made a huge contribution to the people and the country.

She admired this old lady! She performed this ceremony with a sincere heart!

The old lady smiled kindly.

"We just moved back to this city, and we've heard that there's a Suwei food store in Yishan County. There's even a rumor that if you haven't tried Suwei, you've lived in vain! I'm thinking about going there to try it when I have time."

"I didn't expect that the boss of this Suwei restaurant is actually a little kid! Young and promising, not bad!"

Liu Ruyan put her hands on her hips proudly.

"If you want to taste Su Wei's cooking, why go to Yishan County? I have inherited Yue'er's true teachings! I'll take care of dinner tonight!"

Old Madam Xie put away her smile and glanced at her precious daughter suspiciously.

"Oh? My baby actually learned how to cook?"

Liu Ruyan nodded proudly.

"Mom! My skills are pretty good now!"

Old Madam Xie glanced at Wu Yu, then patted the back of Liu Ruyan's hand.

"Of course I believe it! My baby is very talented and can learn anything!"

"But I definitely can't bear to let you cook for me! You better wait patiently for the meal. I have brought some of the best chefs from the Divine Capital. You can all go to the Liu Mansion for dinner."

Lin Qingqing exclaimed.

"Could it be those two from the Liu Mansion in the Divine Capital?"

Madam Xie smiled and said, "That's right. You always loved eating the food they cooked when you were in Shendu. Now you are in for a treat."

Then he extended an invitation to Su Jiuyue and Li.

"You are Yan'er's benefactors, and naturally you are also the benefactors of my Liu Mansion. Please don't refuse and let us do our best to be a good host."

This talented lady Su behaved properly and knew when to act. She fell in love with this girl at first sight.

Su Cainv's mother also looks like a likable person!

Such a beautiful girl must be invited to Liu Mansion and treated well!

It’s relaxing just looking at it!

Liu Ruyan knew that her mother loved beautiful things.

Judging from her attitude, I’m afraid that Yue’er and Sister Li have caught her eyes!

He pursed his lips helplessly.

"Mom, are you ready for tomorrow's lotus viewing banquet?"

The old lady waved her hand.

"What is there to prepare for? It's just a birthday, but your father insisted on promoting it everywhere and even held a lotus viewing banquet!"

"It's just that some people who want to curry favor with him have come here. They all have their own little thoughts. It's very boring. Let him worry about it himself."

Liu Ruyan also had no idea why her father, who had always been low-key and honest, would hold such a lavish lotus-viewing banquet.

"Maybe he thought that this was her 60th birthday after all, and he wanted her to have a great time."

……

Fucheng, Yunlu Inn.

An old man sat in a private room, sipping tea leisurely.

He looked calm and composed, and although he was over 60, he was still full of energy and didn't look old at all.

Opposite the old man sat a man in gorgeous purple clothes.

He has an extraordinary appearance, and his every move reveals his innate nobility.

The man raised the corner of his mouth elegantly.

"Master Liu, you invited me here with such fanfare, just to drink tea?"

The old man paused in drinking tea and smiled brightly.

"That's not right. Young Master Muchen has tasted all kinds of good tea. I think he can drink a cup of this."

Nangong Muchen's expression remained unchanged as he waited for him to finish speaking.
