Chapter 176
Tan Bawang Makes Trouble Again
Mu Yunyao’s face turned slightly red, and she looked a bit embarrassed, “I’m just thinking of a way to earn some money . I’m not worthy of Steward Qin’s praise . ”
“I’ve never seen Miss Mu wear any of the jewelry I gave you last time . Don’t you like those patterns or styles? If Miss Mu likes anything, I can ask Yu Yi to help me gather some from different places . ”
“Such quality excellent gem headdress, how could I not like that? It’s just that my father has passed away less than three years, so I didn’t dare to put it on casually . It seems that I have made you misunderstood me . ”
Steward Qin suddenly understood and praised in his heart, “No wonder I always saw Miss Mu wearing simple and elegant clothes . I didn’t expect that this was the reason . Please forgive me . ”
“It’s nothing . Steward Qin, you don’t need to worry about it . According to the date, Fourth Master should have arrived in Western Guangdong by now, right?”
“Yes, Wang Ye should be there soon . Don’t worry, Miss . After Fourth Master has settled things in Western Guangdong, he will come back . ”
“I …”
Yu Yi walked in and interrupted Mu Yunyao’s words just as she was about to speak, “Greetings, Miss Mu and Shopkeeper Qin . The Young Master of Cai Yue Pavilion, Tan Bawang, came to drink tea . He said that the tea was fake, someone poisoned and died . It has already started to cause trouble . ”
Mu Yunyao hurriedly stood up and walked out . “Lead the way . Let’s go take a look . ”
In the middle of spring, Tan Bawang’s attendant is lying on the ground, his face pale and foaming . The table at the side overturned, and the tea spilled all over the floor . The person in charge of making the tea, Si Cha Ming Yin, was lying on the ground with blood flowing from her arm; she had clearly injured .
As soon as Mu Yunyao entered, she saw Tan Bawang sitting on a chair with a triumphant smile on his lips . He eagerly looked at the door and immediately stood up when he saw her enter . His expression suddenly turned into anger, and he rebuked: “Mu Yunyao, although we had some conflicts earlier on, you can’t order people to poison the tea . It is blatantly plotting to kill others and is a crime that requires beheaded! Right now, I …”
Mu Yunyao turned to look at Yu Yi and spoke to interrupt Tan Bawang’s words, “Go to the government and report this . Say that Tan Bawang has deliberately taken revenge, injure Bu Xian Luo’s Si Cha, and planted maliciously that the tea was poisonous . Please asked Lord Zhao to uphold justice for us!”
Tan Bawang didn’t expect Mu Yunyao to be even more unyielding than him . The corner of his eye immediately twitched, but seeing that his follower had already died and thinking of his own meticulous arrangements, his heart calmed down a bit: “Mu Yunyao, don’t bluff, you want to report this to the officials? Good, I also have the same idea . I just so happen to let Lord Zhao and the people of Jingling City come here to take a look, to see just how evil you are, deliberately retaliated and killed for money . ”
Yu Yi received the order and immediately turned around to leave . Before reporting to the official, he informed Liu Liang to come over in case Tan Bawang was in a hurry to jump over the wall and injure Mu Yunyao .
The commotion over here had already attracted the attention of quite a few people . At this moment, many guests had already gathered around to watch the scene .
Everyone could not help but feel a sense of disgust when they saw Tan Bawang . This person had previously come looking for trouble with Miss Mu and had finally settled down for a few months . Who knew that he would come looking for trouble again?
When they thought about the infamous Cai Yue Pavilion, they had a guess . It was likely that Tan Bawang wanted to borrow the power of Cai Yue Pavilion to come to Miss Mu and take revenge for the matter from before!
Mu Yunyao walked up and helped Si Cha, who had fallen up from the ground . “Ming Yin, are you alright?”
“Thank you, Young Miss . I’m fine . I just suffered a little injury . ” As Ming Yin spoke, she slowly pulled up her sleeves, revealing a long wound on her arm . Her arm was white and slender, and the injury was about a long stretch, dripping with blood . It was particularly shocking, and it immediately caused the crowd around to exclaim .
“Tan Bawang, you actually dare to hurt someone . You’re really too arrogant!” Tan Bawang looked at the wound on Ming Yin’s arm and immediately opened his eyes wide . He had only pushed her down to the ground, only was afraid that Ming Yin would cause trouble and didn’t hurt her . He didn’t expect her to slander: “You bitch, when did I ever hurt you?”
Ming Yin trembled slightly . Her expression was full of fear, and she couldn’t help but move to behind Mu Yunyao . Her already pale face became even paler .
The criticism from the crowd grew in volume, “Tan Bawang, we will testify on behalf of Miss Ming Yin . We will definitely ask Lord Zhao to punish you . ”
“Are you all blind? Did you not see my attendants frothing at the mouth after drinking this bitch’s tea, and you still dare to spout sarcastic words? If someone really dies, then all of you are accomplices!” Tan Bawang glared viciously at the surrounding customers .
“For the past half-year, we have frequently come to Bu Xian Luo to drink tea . There is no problem with tea . It’s so good . Why would Miss Ming Yin poison your attendant?”
“Naturally, she took revenge for the previous things . Back then, for the sake of Cai Qing, I made a speech to make things difficult for Mu Yunyao, and she harbored deep hatred in her heart . Now that she saw me drinking tea, she ordered Ming Yin to poison me in order to kill me . Unexpectedly, you sent the tea to the wrong place and let my attendant drink it directly . I was lucky to live . It seems like it was heaven protection, and they can’t stand to see the cunning succeed . ” Tan Bawang slanted his eyes at Mu Yunyao’s expression . Seeing that her face was calm, the hatred in his heart became deeper and profound . His father abandoned him and let himself suffer from three months’ imprisonment . This hatred is no longer bearable . Now that Cai Yue Pavilion’s contribution is more excellent than Ni Yun Fang, and he doesn’t need to be afraid of it!
The hatred in the past and the hatred today, they might as well take revenge together!
Mu Yunyao took the white gauze from Jin Lan’s hand and helped Ming Yin temporarily bandage her arm to stop the bleeding before asking, “Miss Ming Yin, is the matter as Tan Bawang said?”
Ming Yin quickly shook her head while biting her lips: “Please clear this matter, Young Miss . Tan Bawang turned black and white and purposely framed me . Knowing that he is here to drink tea, I have always carefully served him . I’m afraid that he will cause trouble for Bu Xian Luo again, but he said something to made jokes about me! For fear that he might cause chaos in Bu Xian Luo or affect other guests, I had been enduring in the dark, but unexpectedly, he had taken an inch from me and directing his attendants to do something nasty to me . When I was about to cry out for help, the attendant fell on the ground and foamed at the mouth . . . ”
As Ming Yin spoke, she broke into tears . “I really don’t know what happened, and I didn’t poison the tea . Please help me and return my innocence, Young Miss …”
When everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but carefully size up Ming Yin . Only then did they notice that her clothes and hair were slightly disheveled, mainly her sleeves and the front of her clothes . The traces of pulling were too evident .
“That fellow Tan Bawang, who came last time to invert the truth . Now, his methods are becoming more and more vicious . He will surely be punished severely by Lord Zhao later!”
“Now that Cai Yue Pavilion teaches the embroidery needle techniques with substantial momentum, I’m afraid that if you want to punish him, you have to be cautious . Speaking of which, in the beginning, Miss Mu was kind-hearted, but her ability was limited . So, she didn’t care about her past grudges and entrusted Cai Yue Pavilion to spread the embroidery needle techniques so that more people could profit . However, he did not expect to make Cai Yue Pavilion like today, but in turn, they had oppressed . The owner of Cai Yue Pavilion clearly repays this kindness with his grievances!”
“Previously, the Shopkeeper of Cai Yue Pavilion had secretly let out some money and even forced out a person’s life . From this, we could see that Cai Yue Pavilion is not a good place . There might be other, even more, shameful activities . ”
“Who knows?”
