Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 230: So Many Schemes

Su Muyao listened to Nanny Lan’s words, revealing a bright smile. This familiar feeling, familiar people, familiar environment, made her very happy, giving her a relaxed feeling of coming home.

Even though she didn’t know how her father did it, she could feel her father’s care for her.

Even the current arrangements at home, including the layout of her room, were just like when she was a child.

It felt so intimate, coming back didn’t feel strange at all.

"Nanny Lan, I’ll teach you all how to eat hot pot for lunch today. Prepare more vegetables, we’re having hot pot."

Although Beast Emperor City is warmer than the Northern Territory, it’s now winter and still cold, so Su Muyao decided to have everyone eat hot pot together.

"Alright."

Su Chunlan smiled so hard her eyes turned into slits.

Seeming to remember something, Su Muyao asked, "What about Wen Nanxi’s room?"

Su Chunlan said, "Don’t worry, Miss. We’ve already tidied and arranged everything. It’s still the original rooms and courtyards for several gentlemen, but we’ve completely renovated the interiors of the other five courtyards. They look different now, Miss, take a look and decide what to use them for."

They couldn’t wait to tear down the courtyards those five people lived in.

Ugh, they don’t qualify to come to the Su Family anymore. Although they wanted to tear them down, they still had to follow the Miss’s wishes.

Su Muyao decisively said, "Exactly, tear down those five adjoining courtyards and turn them into greenhouses for growing winter vegetables."

Winter vegetables are originally rare and expensive. She happened to have a shop selling grains and vegetables, so they could use the greenhouses to grow a large amount of vegetables. Besides keeping some for themselves, the rest would supply the shop to earn crystal coins."

Upon hearing this, Su Chunlan was even more pleased, "Rest assured, Miss, I’ll have everyone get it done as soon as possible."

"I’ll write up a greenhouse construction plan, and you’ll know how to proceed."

When she was younger, she liked tinkering with things. These were all the elders around her, they worked together harmoniously, so there was no need to worry about them doing things poorly.

"Alright, Miss."

Let’s get things busy these few days. In a few days, it’ll be time for the palace banquet. Her Majesty the Empress is hosting the palace banquet to discuss merits and rewards, inviting many people then.

...

The incident of Su Muyao crippling Jiang Mochuan’s top aide, Jiang Dao, the day she returned to the city spread throughout Beast Emperor City in just a few days.

The common people loved discussing this over meals.

Some believed it, some thought it was exaggerated, but overall, the Jiang Family’s reputation was utterly damaged.

After Jiang Mochuan and Liu Mengyan consummated their marriage, he always seemed drained, feeling that it was Su Muyao’s influence.

He even felt guilty towards Liu Mengyan.

Liu Mengyan, on the other hand, looked more radiant and kept comforting Jiang Mochuan, showing him warmth and care. Jiang Mochuan felt even more touched and thought Liu Mengyan was even better.

...

Yan Family

Yan Zhaoye was practicing with the spear at the family’s dedicated training ground. His black activewear hugged his slender, fit waist over his moon-white inner clothing. Without armor, he exuded an aura of ferocity. The wielding spear carried sharp severity, full of vigor.

After the Yan Family Master returned, she headed to the martial arts field to find Yan Zhaoye. Seeing his moves and his proficiency in Yan Family Spear Technique, she nodded with satisfaction.

However, recalling something, her expression shifted. After Yan Zhaoye finished training, she said, "Come with me to the study."

Although Yan Zhaoye didn’t quite understand why, he tossed his spear onto the rack, regained his noble posture, straightened his slightly tousled attire, and headed to the study unhurriedly.

"Mother, did you call me to the study for something?"

The Yan Family Master gestured for Yan Zhaoye to sit down. After a moment of silence, she said, "Have you heard any of the recent rumors outside?"

Yan Zhaoye chuckled, "Mother, there’s always a lot of talk outside, every day there’s something new. Which are you referring to?"

"Su Muyao."

With just those three words, Yan Zhaoye’s expression turned serious, "Mother, if you called me here to talk about this, then let’s not discuss it further, I need to practice my spear technique."

The Yan Family Master said sternly, "Stay right where you are."

"Mother, you disapprove of my relationship with Miss Liu and forcibly kept me at home. Do you intend to force me into something with Su Muyao?"

He gritted his teeth, "Mother, don’t forget she’s the one who caused my sister to become a madwoman, now confined in a remote courtyard, left to her fate."

Originally, his sister was to be the next Yan Family Master, relieving him of such hefty responsibilities. After her accident, the entire burden of the family fell upon him. He couldn’t even choose a female he liked.

Yan Zhaoye hated Su Muyao intensely. If his mother wasn’t suppressing him, not allowing rash action, he would have wanted to kill Su Muyao.

The Yan Family Master solemnly said, "It’s not necessarily her doing."

"She’s Su Zhihong’s daughter. I trust Su Zhihong."

Initially, there was suspicion, which was why she didn’t stop Yan Zhaoye from severing ties with Su Muyao. But after calming down and repeatedly considering the matter, she noticed many inconsistencies.

"Moreover, a female knows another female. There’s much amiss with that Liu Mengyan, though it’s unclear what, keeping distance is always wise."

"A mother would never harm you." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Yan Zhaoye wore a mocking expression, "Mother, these are just your excuses. You look down on the Liu Family, think they’re lowly, and that marrying into their family would disgrace the Yan Family. And since it wouldn’t be as the first beast husband, you disagree."

"The person you want me to marry, that Su Muyao, she behaves arrogantly and maliciously. Everyone has seen it. That day, it was she who invited my sister out, and my sister got into trouble, while she alone survived."

"Even so, you still feel Miss Liu is unworthy. You only care about the family, not my feelings."

Yan Zhaoye spoke almost hysterically, as if these thoughts had been suppressed for a long time.

The Yan Family Master, seeing him like this, grew angry, "I tell you, if you wish to marry Liu Mengyan, abandon that thought. You’ve enjoyed the family’s riches and the family’s nurturing. You should think of everything for the family, not just about your personal feelings. If your sister were well, I wouldn’t care whom you married."

"But you aim to be both the family heir and marry down; you’re toying with the entire family. I absolutely won’t allow it. If you want to anger me to death, then go ahead and indulge in your whims."

Yan Zhaoye’s face turned pale. He laughed self-mockingly, "Hah."

He indeed couldn’t disregard his mother’s life, nor the family’s well-being, which was why he felt so repressed.

Only Liu Mengyan understood and supported his thoughts and feelings.

The Yan Family Master, seeing his dejected state, softened her tone, "I connected with people to check on your sister. She may have fallen under an evil technique, which is why doctors can’t cure her."

This mysterious evil technique forced the Yan Family Master to ponder deeply, so keeping Yan Zhaoye home was also for his protection.

"And look at Duan Tingxuan of the Duan Family, who fancied Dong Baishang, and was infatuated with her. After breaking the engagement with Su Muyao, he married into the Dong Family. See his current situation?"

"If it weren’t for the Duan Family supporting him from behind, who knows how badly Dong Baishang might have bullied him? A female can easily present one face publicly and another privately."

Mentioning Duan Tingxuan changed Yan Zhaoye’s expression, leaving him unable to retort, though he steadfastly believed Liu Mengyan was different from Dong Baishang.

...

Dong Family

After Duan Tingxuan discovered Dong Baishang’s external affair, there was a big ruckus. Following the dispute, Dong Baishang stopped pretending and simply brought the external partner into the house, giving them an official status.

She even openly flirted with her new beast husband in front of Duan Tingxuan, aiming to show him that disobedience would lead to neglect. Handling a beast husband requires proper taming.

Under this cold neglect, Duan Tingxuan’s heart grew colder by the inch.

When he heard the name Su Muyao, the needle he was using for embroidery suddenly pricked his finger, drawing blood.
