Yun Shang seemed to be in a daze for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "My lady, where do you want to go? How long will it take?"
Without waiting for Wu Duona's answer, she paused and continued, "My child is not in good health. I don't want him to travel around. How about I prepare more facial cream and beauty pills for you, and then teach the maids and madams beside you how to use them. It should be okay for you to hold on for a few months.
I'll adjust it according to your condition when you come back to the city."
Wu Duona borrowed the identity of the city lord's wife. Even if the city lord's wife left the city, she would come back soon.
Wu Duona turned around and looked at the madam standing next to her. Then she smiled and said, "If nothing special happens, I'm afraid I won't come back again."
Yun Shang widened her eyes and asked in confusion, "You won't come back? Aren't you the wife of the lord of Wu Er'he City?"
Yun Shang thought for a moment and asked, "Is the city lord promoted and going to take office somewhere else?"
This seemed to be the only reasonable explanation.
Wu Duona lowered her head, took a sip of her tea and smiled carelessly. She didn't say yes or no. "You just arrived at Wu Er'he City and haven't really settled down here. Follow me. What I can give you is absolutely beyond your expectations."
Wu Duona looked up at Yun Shang, as if remembering her weakness, and the corners of her mouth rose. "Recently, the teachers of your son have told me that your son is very intelligent and sensible. He learns very fast, and is gentle and courteous. He will definitely become a talent in the future."
Wu Duona fixed her eyes on Yun Shang, "Have you ever thought about letting your child step into a career in the officialdom?"
Yun Shang's eyes widened. "A career in the officialdom?" "Yes." Wu Duona nodded, "I can help you."
Yun Shang shook her head, "I've heard that there are too many intrigues in the officialdom. If you want to really make a difference, you have to be either really knowledgeable or extremely talented in martial arts, or have a good family background."
Yun Shang lowered her eyes, "I know my own child. Although he is a little clever, he is just a little clever. There is nothing more. And the family background..."
Yun Shang smiled bitterly, "He and I are ordinary people. We don'thave a good family background."
Wu Duona smiled confidently and said, "don't worry. As long as you agree to go with me, I promise to let your son enter the office successfully. And I can promise that I will be his background. As long as he is capable and willing to be loyal to me, I can guarantee that he will be successful in the political field."
Yun Shang looked hesitant. She kept silent for a while and shook her head. "I have only one child now. Although you can support him, the officialdom is really dangerous... I'm afraid...
