"Only those who pass the needlework test will be hired; if the clothes are not made well, they may even have to pay for the materials."
After saying that, Mu Wanting took a few pieces of discarded cloth and gave them to Shen Linong.
"Let them embroider the pattern according to the design. I'll only use it if I think it's acceptable."
Shen Linong was somewhat excited: "Good, good, good."
He really didn't expect Mu Wanting to give them this opportunity.
Even Old Madam Shen nodded repeatedly at Mu Wanting.
"You're a very good child."
The design of the main room was also carefully made. After it was finished, the fabric was handed over to Mu Wanting.
Mu Wanting was quite satisfied. The needlework skills of the eldest son's wife were indeed good, and surprisingly, Xu Cuilan was even the best among them.
Mu Wanting then handed the garment fabric to the eldest son's family.
The eldest son immediately recognized the fabric's value upon touching it, and thus became even more meticulous in his work.
Otherwise, they'll feel the pinch if we make them pay compensation.
Upon seeing that Da Fangdi had gone to find Mu Wanting, Shen Lijun could no longer sit still.
"Mu Wanting, you're making it for the eldest son's family but not for us second sons' family. This is targeting us."
Mu Wanting's expression was indifferent.
“I didn’t stop the second wife’s family. If they want to do it, they can come to me themselves. But I still need to test their needlework.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Lijun's eyes lit up; there was hope!
Then, he immediately summoned the concubines and illegitimate daughters who were still with him from his second wife's side, tried it out, and found it worked very well.
Mu Wanting accepted it without hesitation.
When the other families saw that even the second wife, whose relationship had been strained so much, could find work, they quickly approached Mu Wanting and also offered to do needlework.
Mu Wanting accepted it all without hesitation. She was just passing it on, earning 19 taels of silver with tears in her eyes. What was there for her to be unhappy about?
However, a fabric damage agreement was signed beforehand, stipulating that they would have to compensate for any damage, which was to prevent anyone from plotting against them.
After the fabric was distributed, Mu Wanting returned to her room, where she was alone.
As usual, she first went to check on her third brother in her online space.
After being nourished by the white soup, Third Brother's hidden ailment was cured, but cleaning it up was too much trouble.
Some of the toxins in his body have been cleared, but this detoxification process is too slow. Conservatively speaking, it will take more than half a year.
Actually, if one knew the formula for the poison, one could prepare the antidote accordingly.
However, Mu Wanting knew about this poison, but the prescriptions were ever-changing. If even one ingredient was wrong, it would lead to Mu Qingfeng's death.
The medicinal herbs in the space are growing very quickly, and even ginseng has already piled up in abundance.
There are also some wild vegetables.
She carried the wild vegetables out of the space, and as soon as she left, she saw Shen Xinglan open the door and come in again.
Mu Wanting: "..."
Shen Xinglan raised an eyebrow, a smile in her eyes, and looked at Mu Wanting with a leisurely air.
Mu Wanting could only say it was too much of a coincidence; who could have known that Shen Xinglan would walk in at this exact moment?
"I was hiding in the corner just now."
Shen Xinglan remained silent, her meaning clear: I'm watching you make this up.
Mu Wanting bit her lip. She had been caught red-handed so many times. Before, she thought Shen Xinglan hadn't seen it, but now that she thought about it, he probably had already seen it a long time ago.
Shen Xinglan asked, "Is this your secret?"
Mu Wanting nodded: "But this secret is a matter of life and death, so I can't tell you."
Seeing the sincerity in her eyes, Shen Xinglan's heart softened, and she embraced her.
Compared to the Mu Wanting of the past, she is now noticeably colder and more wary of him.
But he knew that everyone has secrets, and she couldn't possibly tell him everything.
"It's okay, I know. You must have your reasons, otherwise you wouldn't have kept it from me."
Mu Wanting felt a warmth in her heart. She thought that with Shen Xinglan's controlling nature, she would definitely make her reveal the secret.
Although the secret has been exposed, the space itself hasn't, which makes her feel a little better.
After dinner, Mu Wanting went into her room, and Shen Xinglan embraced her and kissed her tenderly.
Perhaps feeling guilty, she didn't resist much tonight, and Shen Xinglan kissed her very gently, giving her the illusion of deep affection.
But she knew that Shen Xinglan was only after her body, and that he could never truly love her.
If she liked him, she would have pursued him for so many years, and he would have liked her long ago. Why wait until now?
As Shen Xinglan couldn't help but hold her tightly, panting, the call of the officials sounded from outside the door.
"Watch out, there's an assassin!"
Shen Xinglan said, "You stay inside."
However, Mu Wanting knew that she was among the top five in terms of martial arts skills here, and if she stayed inside, the people outside would definitely feel immense pressure.
Moreover, Shen Xinglan's foot is injured.
She went out with her crossbow and fired at the assassins, who quickly fell to the ground.
But soon, Mu Wanting realized something was amiss; the assassin was after her and Shen Xinglan.
One of them was a master, whose martial arts skills were no less than theirs, and he charged straight at them.
Mu Wanting's eyes turned cold, and she didn't let them get away with it. She attacked them in a few moves.
She could have dodged, but Murong Rong pushed her.
Everyone around could see it clearly. The third branch of the family stared wide-eyed, their eyes filled with worry. Shen Yujiao didn't dare to look anymore; her eyes were red.
She teleported behind Murong Rong in an instant, startling Murong Rong so much that her face changed drastically.
The assassin was also a master; he barely managed to sheathe his sword, but lost his balance and made a mistake, ultimately being stabbed in the abdomen by Shen Xinglan.
