Chapter 257

The First Night in Su Residence

After setting up Jiyue Pavilion, Mu Yunyao looked at the rooms that were about the same as the one at Jingling City, and a look of satisfaction flashed in her eyes . “What do you think, Mother?”

Su Qing was naturally satisfied . However, she was a little worried in her heart . “If we change all the things in Jiyue Pavilion, is there something wrong with that?”

“It doesn’t matter . It’s Zhou Mama who said that it’s okay to replace it . There is nothing wrong with it . Mother doesn’t have to worry about it . We’ve been on the boat for the past few days, so I’m sure you’re quite tired . Let’s rest a bit earlier today . ”

“Sure . ”

After finishing her meal, Mu Yunyao chatted with Su Qing for a while, but she was still awake . She leaned against the soft couch with one hand against her forehead and closed her eyes to rest . Jin Lan lifted up the box containing the Snow Fox . When the Snow Fox saw Mu Yunyao, it hurriedly extended its claws to scratch the cage before making a whining sound from its mouth .

Mu Yunyao opened her eyes and looked over, only to see the two claws in front of the Snow Fox hugging each other, its hind legs standing straight up as it bowed towards her .

Mu Yunyao laughed fiercely and motioned for Jin Lan to open the cage . She watched as the Snow Fox quickly climbed onto her shoulder . “When did you learn how to flatter and grovel?”

The Snow Fox pulled down from Mu Yunyao’s shoulder . She placed it on her knees and rubbed her head . Her small ears constantly trembled, and her squinted eyes had a prominently satisfied look . “Wuwu …”

Mu Yunyao scratched the Snow Fox’s chin, then gently pinched the meat pad on her front paws . Looking at its sharp claws, she said faintly, “Since you’re so smart, then learn a little more . Jin Qiao, another day you ask Liu Liang to teach you a few moves . After that, you can teach the Snow Fox, and I’ll take it to get something nice some other day . ”

“Huh?” Jin Qiao was dumbfounded . “Miss, you want me to teach Snow Fox martial arts?”

“Yeah, didn’t you praise it for being extremely intelligent? I think learning martial arts is not bad either . ”

Jin Qiao’s entire face collapsed: “But, but . . . ”

Jin Lan, who was standing by the side, couldn’t help chuckling . “Miss is teasing you . Are you serious?”

Jin Qiao raised her head and met Mu Yunyao’s eyes, which filled with smiles . She couldn’t help but stamp her feet with a blushing face . “This servant will help Young Miss make up the bed . ”

After helping Mu Yunyao wash up, Jin Lan softly persuaded, “Miss, don’t let your thoughts run wild . You should rest well tonight, and you’ll be energetic tomorrow . ”

“Mm, all of you can go rest . ”

“Yes, Miss . ”

Mu Yunyao leaned against the headboard in her undergarment . The Snow Fox then jumped onto the embroidered blanket on her legs and extended its front paws to hold Mu Yunyao’s fingers to lick them . The tail behind it continuously swayed, and it looked extremely pleased with itself .

Mu Yunyao stroked the Snow Fox in her hands, but her thoughts couldn’t help but drift off into the distance .

In her previous life, she thought about every day was how to survive under Madam Li . But she suddenly got recognized by the Su family, and they take her out of Xiayan Village . While she was uneasy, she also carried deep anticipation at the same time . Her mother and father were no longer alive, and Madam Li had been torturing her all day, but the sudden appearance of relatives has almost become the lifeline in her eyes .

At that time, Zhou Mama had kept on persuading her along the way, letting her try her best to please the Old Madam and the Eldest Madam, telling her how noble the Su family’s family was…,

After entering the residence, she first suffered gravely ill . After getting well, she could meet the Old Madam, but she found that she didn’t have decent clothes . Just as she was feeling anxious, suddenly there were clothes delivered, but all of them were bright red and green . At that time, she thought they were inappropriate, but Zhou Mama said she was more festive and could please the Old Madam if she wears that cloth, so she comes to see the Old Madam in that red dress . Furthermore, the maid had played tricks on her, making her kneel down and kowtow the moment she entered the door . The Old Madam scolded her for not being filial and for not wearing proper clothes . Because of that, her reputation got ruined .

The servants would look at their Master or Mistress’s face the most . As soon as she enters the door, she makes the Old Madam unhappy, and the situation becomes more difficult . Although she was feeling sad at the time, it was still much better to be in the Su family’s residence than under Madam Li’s hand . At the very least, Mu Yunyao could eat a hearty meal and sleep on a soft bed . But not long after that, she discovered the secret relationship between her maids and servants . Then she was ordered by the Eldest Madam to kill him in front of her maid .

A living person was beaten to death with one stick after another . The scent of blood on the ground dissipated after half a month . Mu Yunyao had been severely ill, and there were rumors that the maid had helped her out during the disaster, but in reality, she was the one who had secretly been taught a lesson by the people .

At this point, her reputation was gone completely, and she was forbidden to step out of the courtyard again .

This restriction lasted for half a year . After half a year later …,

A warm feeling came from her fingers, startling Mu Yunyao’s thoughts, causing her to open her eyes and looked at the Snow Fox who was rubbing her fingers, “What are you doing? Do you feel hungry?”

“Woo woo …” The Snow Fox turned its body, revealing its soft belly . It tilted its head and looked at Mu Yunyao .

“Heh, you’re a fox, but why is your temper like a cat?” Mu Yunyao’s mood improved a lot . She got up and picked up a piece of dessert, breaking it bit by bit, before feeding it to the Snow Fox . “I remember that foxes eat meat . Do you want to eat mink?”

“Awoooo . ” The Snow Fox narrowed its eyes as it bit into Mu Yunyao’s dessert . The movement of its small ears made it look exceptionally adorable .

Mu Yunyao’s smile deepened . “Seeing your silly appearance, you might not even be able to beat a cat, much less a Snow Ferret . The person who caught you didn’t have good eyesight and really lacking insight …”

The figure of Yue Wang suddenly appeared in Mu Yunyao’s mind . She was stunned for a moment before reacting . She hurriedly stopped and put the Snow Fox on the pillow beside her . She wiped off the crumbs on her hands, pulled the blanket over her, and laid down .

The Snow Fox laid on the side of Mu Yunyao’s pillow . It curled its little head and nudged the blanket at the side of its neck, wanting to crawl in and sleep together with Mu Yunyao .

However, Mu Yunyao pushed it to the side with extreme disgust .

The Snow Fox hugged its head with its claws as it cried out . Its cries became more and more pitiful, and even its body couldn’t help but tremble .

Mu Yunyao glanced at it with a bit of annoyance . In the end, she wasn’t able to harden her heart to let it continue like this . She slightly lifted up the blanket, revealing a small gap . The Snow Fox quickly got into the blanket and lay down next to Mu Yunyao’s arm . The appearance is exceptionally well-behaved .

Mu Yunyao sneered . “If you can’t beat the Snow Ferret, I will definitely take your skin off as a handguard . ”

“Awoooo . ”

That night, Mu Yunyao slept very soundly and peacefully . When she woke up the next day, she felt refreshed . On the other hand, Su Qing did not sleep soundly and appeared to be in low spirits when she had breakfast .

“Yao’er, after breakfast, shouldn’t we pay respects to the Old Madam?”

“The Old Madam is considerate of us . Generally, it is the first day and the fifteenth day of the year to pay respect . Today, according to the rules, we don’t need to do it . However, we just came back to Su’s residence yesterday, so no matter what, we have to go over and take a look today . If the Old Madam is willing to see us, we can accompany her and chat a bit . If she is not willing, we also show our sincerity . ”

“Alright, then let’s go now . ”

Mu Yunyao smiled and nodded to Su Qing . But in her heart, she was sure that the Old Madam would never see them . As expected, when they arrived outside the Old Madam’s courtyard, Wen Mama came out to welcome them .
