Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 386

~A BLOCKBUSTER AND MOISTENING THINGS SILENTLY ~
Two days later, the sound of firecrackers was echoing.
People in the Capital rushed to the entrance of Ni Yun Fang one after another, ready to watch Ni Yun Fang’s opening.
When they arrived and saw the high platform built in front of the door, they couldn’t help but point out and talk about it.
“What are they trying to do?”
“I’m not sure. From the looks of it, could it be that they wants to perform some singing or dancing?”
“This is Embroidery Store, right? Wouldn’t performing songs and dances look out of place?”
Mu Yunyao stood upstairs. Seeing that almost all people had gathered, she turned her head towards Caiyi and nodded, “Let’s begin.”
As everyone was discussing, there was suddenly the sound of a pipe being played, and the snow-white screen was pulled up onto the stage.
Yu Wang and Yue Wang sat on the second floor of a restaurant not far away from Ni Yun Fang, allowing them to clearly see the situation on the stage. “A blank screen? Do they want to perform and paint?”
As Yue Wang sipped the wine, curiosity could be seen in his eyes. “I’m not sure either, but that’s not a screen. It’s an embroidery frame.”
Yu Wang could not help but widen his eyes. “Embroidery frame? For such a large embroidery frame, could it be that they are going to perform embroidery on the spot?” Such a large embroidery frame and silk cloth, it would probably take at least a year or so to embroider it, right?
The people below were also curious. As they watched, they saw ten beautiful embroidery ladies walk up onto the stage. Each of them had a piece of colorful embroidery thread in their hands. Their slender fingers held shining embroidery needles as they danced along with the music.
Their dancing posture was beautiful, and their skirt danced in the wind. When they moved, the colorful silk threads swayed like dazzling multicolored light.
“Look at that silk cloth!” Suddenly someone screamed.
As the embroidery lady’s sleeves fluttered, bits of color quickly appeared on the snow-white silk cloth. At first, the color was scattered, so it was hard to tell what pattern it was. Gradually, the pattern became clear.
“Flying Beauty....”
The multi-colored silk threads swayed, and occasionally people could see the light of the embroidery needles flashing. The ten embroidery ladies were like fairies. Wherever they passed, the white silk curtains would gradually be filled with various colors.
One pattern after another became clear, and more and more images of beauties appeared on the silk cloth. Beauties dance arrogantly with the wind, beauties picking up flowers while beaming with spring on their rosy cheeks, or standing quietly by the water’s edge with frowning eyebrows, or leaning against the window and crying sorrowfully …
Everyone stared at the silk cloth, and they could not help but follow the beauty that appeared on the silk cloth, either joy or sorrow, gradually blending in their emotions into it. The sound of the silk bamboo was slow, and it was too late to say anything. Just as everyone was feeling sorrowful, they heard a rumbling sound from the high platform. The wooden frame holding the silk cloth broke apart, and the silk cloth slowly began to fall on the ground.
The crowd could not help but cry out in alarm that the beauty fell to the ground and was contaminated with dust, which was even more sad and lamentable.
However, before people could even finish their sentence, the silk cloth slowly fell to the ground, and a woman’s silhouette appeared behind it. Her back was facing the crowd, her black hair was like a waterfall, her figure was graceful and elegant, her slim arms were slightly spread open, and she stood silently with a long tassel ribbon, just like the beauties that appeared on the silk cloth.
“Ah, the goddess has descended to the mortal world....” The crowd didn’t know how to describe the girl in front of them. She clearly didn’t turn around, only revealing her back. However, they felt that the girl in front of them was the beauty that appeared on the silk cloth.
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, the woman slowly turned around, revealing a beautiful face. She slowly danced, and her dance making her appear even more beautiful than on the silk cloth. With the blooming hibiscus flowers on her head, its petals quivered as she danced, and the long silk veil swirled and fluttered around her, making her feel even more beautiful. She was a beauty that transcended the mundane world.
In the restaurant, Yu Wang leaned over the window as he looked carefully at the woman on the stage.
“Fourth Imperial Brother, do you see what’s going on? How can they embroider be so fast? It was even faster than painting. In the blink of an eye, the ten embroidery ladies had already finished embroidering a portrait of a beauty … There was also that girl who danced so beautifully. It was even better than the palace dancers. Where did miss Mu find such a person?”
There was a hint of joy in Yue Wang’s eyes. This display of skills was enough to make Ni Yun Fang a blockbuster.
The sound of the silk bamboo stopped, and the silk cloth that had fallen on the ground slowly rose up, blocking the woman’s figure on the stage. Everyone could not help but exclaim in surprise as they looked around. However, they saw nothing, only saw silk cloth and no beauties.
“It’s... it’s so beautiful.”
The crowd refused to disperse for a long time, as they looked forward to meeting the beauty, who had danced just now. However, they saw that Ni Yun Fang had also put away the silk cloth with the painting of beauties. Soon after, someone came to tear down the stage in front of the entrance and even cleaned the floor before carefully hanging up the signboard. After that, there was no other movement.
“It’s over just like that?”
“Yeah, why does it feel like my heart is empty?”
“I share the same feeling. I feel so lost....”
Cai Yi went back upstairs. Her forehead was slightly covered in sweat. However, her eyes were particularly bright. “Miss, this servant is fortunate to live up to your trust and didn’t disappoint you.”
“From now on, you are the shipkeeper of Ni Yun Fang. You were hired by me, but you didn’t sign the indenture contract with me. Therefore, you don’t have to call yourself a servant in front of me.” Mu Yunyao turned around to look at her, her eyes filled with praise.
Cai Yi shook her head, “Although I am a woman, know the grace of life-saving, and I should pay you back. Miss rescued me from the sea of suffering, so I will be your servant. From today onwards, if there is any dispatch, I dare not fail.”
Mu Yunyao smiled and did not continue to refute her. “I have already told you in detail about the temperament of some of ladies and madams in the Capital. It shouldn’t be a problem for you to entertain them with your intelligence. We doing business and pay attention to harmony to make money, but we don’t have to swallow it. If you are bullied or have any problems that cannot be solved, you can send people to the Su family to find me. I will naturally come forward.”
“Yes, Miss, please be at ease. This servant will definitely have a good sense of propriety.”
Mu Yunyao didn’t personally come out to entertain the guests who came to Ni Yun Fang. There were many rules in the Capital, and not many ladies and madams would buy clothes in person. Even if they did, it was likely that the servants who will come forward. In addition, as long as the clothes are well made, there is no need to worry they can’t sell them.
Before long, a customer had arrived. Seeing that Cai Yi was well-received, Mu Yunyao was even more at ease. On the other side, Bu Xian Luo opened very quietly and only put a hanging of firecrackers. On the contrary, there are several more tea stalls on the wharf, city gate, and roadside. The prices are very low-priced, and the taste is good. Those who operated the stalls were all elderly people or people with disabilities. After careful inquiry, people know that they received funding from Bu Xian Luo and helped them open up a tea stall. The items, tea leaves, and other things that they needed to open up the tea stall were all provided by Bu Xian Luo, but the money they earned was also theirs. The price is more affordable and makes it convenient for those who were truly thirsty.
Many people were touched when they heard this. They had long heard of Mu Yunyao’s good name and knew that Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo had done many good deeds. However, they hadn’t expected that today’s opening day would bring the common people in the Capital benefit.
Especially on the wharf, it’s hard to carry goods back and forth. The long-term workers earn hard-earned money. Even if they drink water, they are reluctant to give up. Now that they had cheap tea, they could spend one coin for the whole day to drink it. Sometimes, they were really short on money, and the old men who made the tea did not even accept money at all. They even pickle some side dishes and provide them to the men who eat dry food with hot tea at noon.
In a short time, the good name of Bu Xian Luo spread, the limelight even overshadowed Ni Yun Fang.
