Chapter 73
“I heard that Lady has a restaurant business in Jingling City . However, due to the popularity of Wang Feng Restaurant, business isn’t that good . I was thinking of renting Lady’s restaurant at the current market price . ” Mu Yunyao had studied all the places in Jingling City for the longest time . She eventually chose that particularly restaurant due to its good location and its relationship with Lady Jin . If Colour Moon Shop wanted to make trouble for her, this relationship with Lady Jin would keep her business safe .
“That restaurant has been making loss for the longest time, I’ve always wanted to rid of it . Since you want it, just take it, you don’t have to speak about any rent!” Lady Jin felt relieved and regained some energy . She called for Yin Hong to come and get the deed to the restaurant building .
“Lady, even the closest brothers must properly pay each other in full . That restaurant has a fantastic location, every year’s rent must be at least a few thousand . If you’re just giving it to me for free, I might lose sleep,” Mu Yunyao gave an earnest smile . Although her tone was a bit more familiar, she did not forget the hierarchy present .
Lady Jin thought for a while before nodding her head happily . “Alright, however, the market value is a bit superficial . You can just give me seventy percent of it . Do not reject me anymore, otherwise I will be very angry . ”
Mu Yunyao smiled brilliantly and got up to bow to Lady Jin . “Yes . Once I earn the big bucks, I will bring a generous gift to thank Lady . ”
Lady Jin laughed . She felt as if a heavy weight had been lifted off from her heart . If she had realised earlier that someone had been poisoning her, her children might already be Mu Yunyao’s age .
Mu Yunyao took the contract and carefully studied the contents . The both of them signed it and put their hand marks on it . Thus marks the beginning of Mu Yunyao’s new business location .
Lady Jin warmly invited Mu Yunyao to stay for a meal . This time, Mu Yunyao did not reject . When she saw the food in the table, she froze .
“Do you not like this type of food? If you want to eat any particular dish, just tell Yin Hong . She will get the chefs to make it . ” Under her orders, she had gotten someone to break the chef’s fingers while making it look like an accident . It would take one to two months for them to heal .
“That’s not it . It’s just that seafood is naturally cooling, Mother is always telling me to not eat too much . Since I’m at Lady’s place now, I am going to eat my fill . ” Mu Yunyao was not being overly polite and careful . Her relationship with Lady Jin had already improved by another step, if she acted too polite, Lady Jin might not feel at ease .
Lady Jin’s expression darkened . She laughed bitterly, “Looks like I am still not thinking as much as I should . I have always been a glutton as a child . I did hear that seafood is very cooling, but my wet nurse had always doted on me . She said that I could just eat heaty food to accompany the seafood and there would not be much problem . Thus it has become a habit . ”
“Eating it on occasion is fine, but one should not eat it everyday . ”
Lady Jin was unable to appreciate this meal, but Mu Yunyao was extremely satisfied . Some of this dishes were unable to get with just money . In the future, when she becomes successful, she would definitely let Mother eat all the good food under the Heavens .
When she finished her food, Mu Yunyao requested for a pen and paper . She wrote down some instructions for Lady Jin to follow to cure her body . “Lady should pay extra attention to the seasons . It’s summer now, so it’s a good time to get rid of all the coolness in your body . The effect should be much better . ”
“Alright . ” Mu Yunyao was pulled back to chat with Lady Jin a little more before she left .
(T/N: Hey guys, Chiyo here! I wanted to say thanks for your support through your kind comments! I also always look forward to the comments cuz some of them can get really interesting and insightful at times .
I might, however, have to disappoint some here as I have an exam coming up in March that might decide my life and death, which will-I’m sorry- inevitably lead to late updates . More like this entire year will concern my life and death cuz I’m taking my A levels . So this may not be the last time you see this sort of message .
But wait, I will definitely make it up to you guys big time in December . I know, that seems like a millennia away and you’re probably like urghhhhhh . But I do think you’ll get sick of me in December . I’ll probably be too bored then, haha .
Last but not least, I feel that many a times I get a bit mixed up between Chinese and English sentence structures, so if you feel uncomfortable with my phrasings or anything, do leave a comment .
