Chapter 191
Then Starve It to Death
Su Qing still had other things to do, so she instructed Mu Yunyao a few times before ordering her people to take away the cloak .
Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief, and the smile on her face became lighter . She looked at the little fox coldly, then turned around and went to rest on the bed .
“Woo …” The cage was too small, and the Snow Fox was almost unable to turn around inside . Seeing that Mu Yunyao didn’t care about it, it stretched out its claws and clawed at the cage’s lock .
Mu Yunyao was annoyed by the noise . She got up and opened the cage’s door, then directly pinched the fur on the back of the fox’s neck and lifted it up . “If you’re honest, then I’ll raise you properly . If you are not honest, I will take your fur and pad your feet . ”
Initially, Snow Fox already had a wild and untamed personality . At this moment, when Mu Yunyao picked him up, it extended its claws to scratch Mu Yunyao’s face .
Mu Yunyao frowned and stretched out her hand to grab the fox’s four claws . Just like before, she pinched the fox’s jaw . This time, without Su Qing around, she did not hold back and strangulate the Snow Fox so hard that the Snow Fox trembled all over .
Seeing that the fire almost has done burning, Mu Yunyao placed the Snow Fox on the table and extended her hand to touch its fur . “Do you want to follow me with delicious food, or just I skin you for a pad?”
The Snow Fox was unable to understand her words completely, but it keenly felt the hostility within her speeches . It slightly trembled and let out a muffled cry . Its appearance made it look extremely obedient .
Mu Yunyao let out a cold laugh as she let go of its arms and stood to the side .
The Snow Fox jumped up from the table and ran out the window . Unfortunately, just as it reached the door, it was stopped by a pair of hands and brought directly to Mu Yunyao . “Mistress, do you want to tie it up?”
“Throw it into the cage over there . When it behaves itself, it will get fed again . ”
“Yes, Mistress . ”
On the second day, Jin Qiao saw the little fox on the table, and her eyes filled with surprise and joy . “Miss, is this a fox? It’s snow-white all over, but it’s extremely precious . ”
The Snow Fox was hung outside for an entire night before being carried back to the room at dawn . At this time, it was both thirsty and hungry . Seeing that Jin Qiao reached out her hand, it bared its teeth as it wanted to bite her hand . Jin Qiao quickly retracted his fingers in fright .
After Mu Yunyao saw this, she smiled, “You have to be careful . This fox eats humans . ”
“Miss is teasing this servant . How can a fox eats humans?”
“Even humans can eat people, let alone foxes . ” After Mu Yunyao finished washing her face and rinsing her mouth, she walked over to the cage and looked at the Snow Fox within . “Have you thought about it?”
The Snow Fox arched its back and let out a threatening roar .
Mu Yunyao also didn’t mind . She turned her head and instructed Jin Lan and Jin Qiao, “Don’t give it food, and don’t feed it water . ”
“Yes, Miss . ”After Mu Yunyao finished her breakfast, she went to the greenhouse in Jin Xiu Garden . Today, the peony bud was slightly larger than before, and she can saw the color of the petals faintly . She carefully trimmed the yellowing leaves and placed them in a small basket at the side .
Footsteps were approaching at the door . Mu Yunyao did not need to turn her head to tell that it was the Yue Wang . “Why would Fourth Master be interested in admiring the flowers in the greenhouse?”
“What about that little fox? Can I find someone to help you tame it?”
“No need . It is hungry in my room right now . It’d be better off if It could get hungry for a meal or two . ” Mu Yunyao said in an indifferent manner .
Yue Wang shook his head slightly . “Winter in Western Guangdong is longer than other places, and snakes hardly found in this season . The Snow foxes are very resistant to hunger . The hungrier they are, the more ferocious they become . Some would rather starve to death than compromise . It is too difficult to tame them . ”
Mu Yunyao smiled, and her smile exceptionally sweet . “If I can’t tame it, then I’ll starve it to death . I don’t dare to keep the Snow Fox in my side if others can tame it, who knows when it will be under the command of others?”
Was it actually for this reason? Yue Wang paused for a moment, then said no more . “I heard that Ni Yun Fang had oppressed by Cai Yue Pavilion . Now, it’s become a very lonely place . ”
“That’s right . Otherwise, how would I have the time to look after the flowers here?”
“But from the looks of it, you don’t seem to be in a hurry?”
Mu Yunyao raised her head to look at Yue Wang . “Fourth Master, I won’t speak in secret . I presume you know better than me what kind of situation Cai Yue Pavilion is in right now?”
A look of helplessness flashed past Yue Wang’s eyes . He knew that his actions yesterday had angered her, which was why she was so hostile . Thus, he decided to keep quiet and watch her prune the flowers .
He didn’t have the time to look closely yesterday, so when he looked at the peony stalks again today, he felt something was amiss, “This is … A two-colored plant?”
“If Fourth Master likes it, I’ll bring you a pot when I’ve finished raising the flowers . ” Mu Yunyao spoke ordinarily and sparsely as if she didn’t realize the value of peonies in front of her .
Yue Wang finally understood why Mu Yunyao had chosen to use peonies to direct her path . If the few peonies in front of her were to blossom successfully, it would become a treasure anywhere .
Jin Qiao walked in as they were talking . When she saw Yue Wang, she somewhat becomes hesitant . “Greetings, Master Ning . Greetings, Miss . ”
“What’s wrong?”
“Reporting to Miss, the owner of Cai Yue Pavilion, Tan Lin, has sent a card inviting Miss to meet at Bu Xian Luo . ”
Mu Yunyao got up to take a look at the invitation before tossing it into the basket full of dead leaves on the side . “You can go back now . Tell him that I’ve been sick these two days and that I’m not suitable for guests . ”
“Yes, Miss . ”
When Tan Lin heard Jin Qiao’s reply, a profound look flashed in his eyes . He turned around and boarded the carriage, returning to Cai Yue Pavilion . The shopkeeper of Cai Yue Pavilion hurriedly came over to welcome him . “Boss, you’ve come back . Why do you need to lower yourself to meet Mu Yunyao? Besides Lady Chen and Madam Zhou, who were close friends, no one else has come to visit . At present, we had sent the beauty booklets of Our Cai Yue Pavilion to the various residences, and they also had returned the custom-made clothes posts . It won’t be long before Ni Yun Fang can’t hold on any longer . ”
The Shopkeeper of Cai Yue Pavilion was quite pleased with himself . So what if Ni Yun Fang had a golden signboard that the Emperor had bestowed upon them? Wasn’t it the same? What about the fact that they couldn’t keep their heads up because Ci Yue Pavilion had run over them?
Tan Lin’s expression did not relax in the slightest, “Has you sent someone to take care of Young Master?”
“I had already sent someone to deliver some silver taels . Young master won’t be able to suffer there . After two days, I will secretly send someone to bring him back . ”
Tan Lin nodded, “Don’t relax for the next few days . We must completely suppress Ni Yun Fang . ”
“Boss, our Cai Yue Pavilion is quite prosperous . We naturally can’t be compared to Ni Yun Fang, but we are still missing a signboard . Didn’t the rumors say that the Emperor has to bestow the same upon our Cai Yue Pavilion? I wonder when this reward will come down?”
“I’ve already sent some people to the Capital to do some work, but some joints are really troublesome to get through . I still need to be patient and wait a bit more . ”
However, while waiting, he got some bad news . First, Tan Bawang was killed by two prisoners when he clashed with others in the place of exile . Afterward, the matter of Cai Yue Pavilion sending people to bribe the officials had exposed . For some reason, it had involved the officials of the upper echelons . The news spread like wildfire, and it directly reached the ears of the Emperor .
