Chapter 77
Three days later, Su Qing felt as if her mind had stopped working. She finally placed a book down dejectedly. "I really can’t think of anything. "
Just then, she happened to glance at an open book which had been laying on the ground. She saw the word ‘Ni’. This word was not bad, Ni……Yun. "Yao Er, what do you think about Niyun Shop?"
(T/N: I understand that in Novelupdate’s summary for this story, I had translated Mu Yunyao’s shop to ‘Cloud Shop’. I’m not sure why I did that. ‘Ni aka 霓’ means secondary rainbow. ‘Yun aka 云’ means cloud. I think I got lazy then and just shortened it to Cloud Shop……
Anyways. I will be calling Mu Yunyao’s embroidery shop ‘Niyun Shop’. I’m not separating the ‘Ni’ and ‘Yun’ because frankly speaking, I think ‘Niyun’ looks prettier…heh heh. Sorry.)
Mu Yunyao did her last thread and raised her head. "Niyun Shop. A Rainbow for clothes, Wind for horses, the Cloud Immortals come down one after the other. Niyun Shop, that sounds amazing. Mother is so knowledgable!"
(T/N: Okay so Mu Yunyao quoted Li Bai’s poem ‘梦游天姥吟留别’ aka ‘A Departing Song of Travelling to Tianmu in
Quoting Kaiser Kuo, a founder of China’s first heavy-metal band: "He was quite a drunkard…and writing some of his best poetry apparently, while completely inebriated. You know, he’s wild and associated with a kind of unbridled revelry…". So go search him up. He’s a pretty wild dude. And also search Du Fu up. Two of the greatest poets of history. Always being compared to each other.
I had had enough of translating poem words cuz like I said I suck so I went to search up a translation of this poem. Credits to East Asia Student for saving me from a headache.)
As she finished speaking, she immediately went to the table and wrote out the words ‘Niyun Shop’ on a piece of paper in a vigorous and lively manner.
Mu Yunyao was talented in copying other people’s handwriting. In her past life, when she had been forced into Yue Wang’s residence against her will, she saw some writing in a room. The handwriting was as sharp as a knife, it was if you could hear the bones and muscles clanging together. Just one look could make a person feel as if they were in a war, where the horses were galloping and the weapons were clashing with each other.
When thinking that she was about to write out the plaque, Mu Yunyao somehow felt that this handwriting was the best. When she finished, she carefully looked at it. She felt extremely satisfied.
Mu Yunyao was like a sword now, she will be the sword that will slice the throats of the Su Family and Jin Wang. This kind of handwriting was the most suitable for her!
"Mother, quick, take a look, what do you think?"
"Although Mother can read, I don’t really know calligraphy all that well. If you think it is good, then it is. " Although Su Qing said this, in reality, her heart had skipped a beat. No matter how she looked at it, this handwriting was truly frightening. Won’t it scare off all the customers?"
Mu Yunyao was very happy. She quickly got Liu Liang to send the paper off to get made into a plaque.
