Chapter 231: Chapter 228: Granny Su Na? (Tiny Fish Pond Group Breaks 100 Members, 3/3 Extra Chapters, Dedicated to All the Little Fry)

[You’ve learned about the historic events in the Emerald World as Mu Ying, your trial character, and gained Source Power ×1000, Consciousness Fragment ×1]

Mu Ying truly didn’t expect the story to be like this.

The widely circulated love story seemed a bit too realistic, but on second thought, it appeared more truthful this way.

With another Consciousness Fragment in hand, it confirmed her guess was right; it truly was matters related to fairy tales that could trigger this fragment quest.

And it wasn’t necessary to be personally involved; learning about it afterward also worked, but it must be true. The beautified false rumors like before were useless.

The story of Cinderella did not end with marriage, living happily with the prince. But this happiness wasn’t necessarily due to love.

After the godmother left, Cinderella no longer had anyone to confide in, but Fairy Mu Ying and Fairy Su Na were great listeners. She continued, "Actually, for a long time after getting married, the King treated me very well. I almost couldn’t maintain my resolve, just by a little, until I was pregnant with Ferena and nearing delivery when I caught him flirting with a Maid. Such incidents are actually quite common among the nobles, but I couldn’t accept it. Love should be loyal to each other, both physically and emotionally.

Seeing that scene and feeling my heart tear apart with pain was when I realized that my heart, which I thought I had guarded, had not actually been safeguarded.

It even affected my child, forcing him into an arranged marriage to save his life.

At that moment, my heart truly cooled. From then on, I only saw him as my husband, the father of my children, not my lover.

The primary reason I wanted to find a Fairy Godmother for my daughter was to hope she wouldn’t strictly adhere to the court’s old-fashioned upbringing and lack adaptability, and I certainly didn’t want her future to depend on another person, even if she couldn’t possess magical fairy powers like Fairy Su Na, I still hoped she could have a strong heart.

Granny Su Na, this matter, I still need to trouble you with," she said.

"I understand your thoughts and agree with your philosophy. I am willing to apply for the godmother position, not just because I need money but also because I am getting older and don’t want to engage in love and childbirth, yet I really like children," Su Na and the Queen reached a consensus.

"Do fairies even lack money to spend?" the Queen asked, curiously glancing at Mu Ying.

"She is a special case. Some fairies’ magic is more suitable for making money," Su Na tried to salvage her dignity.

Mu Ying smiled helplessly and said to the Queen, "Thank you for your story. The transaction is now complete. I will be staying in Canteryala for about half a year more; you can still find me here if there’s anything, although I might not necessarily be of help."

"The blessing you talked about earlier, can it use my lifespan as a wager?" the Queen asked, "If possible, I would like to ask you to bless my daughter for a peaceful life."

Mu Ying shook her head, "Using lifespan as a stake is just the first step. Rather than putting hope in an ethereal blessing, it’s better to properly teach her. Being strong herself is the most important."

Ultimately, Princess Chris was still young, and Mu Ying felt no particular bond with her and didn’t want to take the risk for this.

Having understood the situation, Mu Ying used a Flying Carpet to send the Queen and the Princess back to the Royal Palace. Su Na stayed behind, temporarily lodging with Mu Ying. Considering she was a senior and had presumably traveled through the human world, Mu Ying hoped to learn some matters about the continent from her, to have an idea about the places she would visit next.

"You are the Dingling Witch, aren’t you?" After the queen left, Su Na completely relaxed, leaning casually on the sofa.

Doesn’t everyone have a persona? The Queen does, and so does Su Na.

Mu Ying nodded, it seemed her name as the Dingling Witch was now truly famous.

"I’m so envious, to be able to just relax at such a young age. Ah, an old lady like me still has to work hard," Su Na sighed exaggeratedly, "It’s no wonder I don’t want to have children. The Red Witch really had it tough, better not to bring her into the world to suffer like me."

This reasoning was quite peculiar, Mu Ying thought of Senior Sister Margreta, who had just graduated and was busily looking for genetically superior males to complete her reproductive duties early. Both were Red Witches, yet their views were worlds apart.

That evening, when Mu Ying received a call from Senior Sister Rosie, she brought up the matter.

"Su Na? It couldn’t be the Su Na I’m thinking of! Margreta’s mother is also called Su Na, but she shouldn’t be very old either, at most 50," Rosie’s voice came through the Dingling Flower.

Mu Ying: "..."

Startled by the revelation, Mu Ying dialed Senior Sister Margreta’s number to verify it with Su Na.

"Oh dear, you’ve found out. The Dingling Flower is really amazing, saves me the trouble of pretending," Su Na transformed in an instant into a stunningly beautiful young woman in her twenties with a great figure, having nothing in common with the old and decrepit granny from before.

"Mom! How could you go off to become a godmother! And you said you didn’t have any children, didn’t want to have children! Where did I come from then? No wonder I haven’t seen you since I enrolled, not even a message until I graduated," Margreta’s frantic voice transmitted through the Dingling Flower.

"Xiao Greta, don’t be so hot-headed, I didn’t lie, after all, a child isn’t a child once they grow up, and I can’t have more kids. If I wanted to play with a child, wouldn’t I have to be someone’s godmother? Plus, 1000 Gold Coins a year and free housing, such great terms. Only a fool would pass that up. If I wasn’t close by, I might not have even had the chance," Su Na said cheerily.

Mu Ying: "..."

You didn’t speak like this to the Queen just now.

"1000 Gold Coins? Are they still hiring? I’m coming too!" Margreta’s tone suddenly changed.

Su Na said disdainfully, "That 1000 Gold Coins is only because I’m your mom. Don’t even think about it. I advise you not to compete with your mom for business, careful I might spank you!"

"Hmph, I’m not the same Margreta you used to bully. Just wait, you’re supposed to stay in Canteryala for over a decade. I’ll come visit you after a while, maybe I’ll even bring a granddaughter to play with," Margreta said.

This mother-daughter relationship was truly delicate, and Mu Ying couldn’t help but be grateful that her own mother had disappeared somewhere long ago, being an orphan had its freedoms.

She left the Dingling Flower with Su Na, letting her and Margreta talk more about their relationship, to avoid frequent threats of spanking and burning off hair.

As Mu Ying returned to her room, she muttered, "My Blessing Magic hasn’t failed, has it? Is Su Na really the right godmother? What on earth will Princess Chris turn out like?"

Forget it, forget it. By that time, she’d have made her escape.
