Chapter 453
Cao Jinwen kept sticking to Mu Yunyao. As soon as she left, she covered her mouth and began to cry, which made Mu Yunyao unable to bear it. She could only stay at the Cao family's residence for lunch, coaxing the chubby kid to sleep before leaving.
After returning home, Si Qin was waiting at the door. When she saw Mu Yunyao come back, she hurriedly went up to report,
"Miss, the King's Palace has come down and is currently chatting with Madam.
"
"Yes.
" Mu Yunyao's expression was calm, but in her heart, she couldn't help but rejoice.
In the room, Su Qing sighed,
"Ah, is the snow in the west of Guangdong really as heavy as it is now?
"
"Greetings your highness King Yue, greetings mother.
"
"Yun Yao, no need to be so polite.
" Yue Wang unnoticeably heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Mu Yunyao with a gentle gaze.
Mu Yunyao stood up,
"What is mother saying to Prince Yue? Did I hear snow or something?
"
"Yao`er, I heard from your highness that the snow in the western part of Guangdong Province is especially heavy. There are many places as deep as a person. If you're not careful while walking and suddenly fall into the pit, wouldn't you be drowned by the snow?
"
Mu Yunyao couldn't hold back her laughter as she glanced at King Yue. Had this person learned how to speak nonsense? West Guangdong is cold, but there is also snow, but there will never be such a large amount of snow.
Yue Wang hurriedly winked at Mu Yunyao, hoping that she wouldn't expose him. Just now, in order to make Su Qing happy, he had racked his brains.
"That's right, mother. That place in the west of Cantonese is truly uninhabitable.
" Su Qing immediately glared at Mu Yunyao.
"Didn't your highness the Duke of Yue live in Western Guangdong for that long? To be able to endure such a difficult environment, his Highness the Titan King's temperament was truly admirable. Mother said a lot of things, but suddenly remembered that there were still a few things in the backyard.
Your Highness, mother will be busy for a while before coming back.
"
"Mother …
"
"Treat your majesty well.
" Su Qing pulled Mu Yunyao's hand and patted it. Then she stood up and left with Si Qin and the others.
Jinlan and Jinqiao looked at each other and tactfully retreated to a place a little further away from the door to guard. Mu Yunyao raised her eyes and met Yue Yang's smiling gaze. She instantly asked uncomfortably,
"Why is Your Highness Duke of Yue here so early? Don't we have to receive the subjects who come to pay respects to the new year?
" Even if Demon King Yue wasn't favored by the Emperor, there would still be people who would take advantage of the New Year to visit his mansion and gift him things.
Moreover, this year, the matter of King Yue making porridge on the Lunar New Year's Day was in the limelight. The Emperor's attitude had been slightly relaxed, and there were more people with other thoughts.
"There's no need. I told Eunuch Cheng to close the doors and to not welcome any guests.
" To deal with those subjects with ulterior motives, how could it be as important as coming here to see Yun Yao.
"Yunyao, I … … I have a gift for you.
" As King Yue spoke, he stood up and brought the box beside his hand in front of Mu Yunyao.
Mu Yunyao opened it and saw that there were twelve fine hairpins inside. She could not help but laugh.
"Your Highness Duke of Yue's gift is really ingenious.
"
Mu Yunyao took out a laying rabbit hairpin. The small and exquisite rabbit was made from warm white jade, and the rabbit's eyes were inlaid with red and black gems.
King Yue took the laying rabbit hairpin from her hand and carefully inserted it into Mu Yunyao's hair. He measured her smiling and beautiful face and his eyes were filled with gentleness.
"She's very beautiful.
"
Mu Yunyao blinked and slightly tilted her head, revealing a trace of unspeakable slyness,
"Lord Fourth is talking about a person's looks, or a pearl hairpin?
"
Yue Yang's heart skipped a beat, his heart was like a living rabbit. Bang, bang, bang, bang.
Mu Yunyao couldn't stop herself from laughing.
"Then I'll let you watch for a while longer, but what if you don't want to watch anymore?
"
Yue Yang hurriedly shook his head:
"No.
" How could he have seen enough of a day? He wanted to hold Yun Yao in his hands and carefully accompany her throughout the day. No matter what, he did not see enough.
The atmosphere gradually became warm. It was unknown if the fire in the room was too hot, but the Titan King actually felt his mouth becoming dry. His heart was burning and his body was extremely hot.
Mu Yunyao felt rather uncomfortable being stared at by Yue Wang's direct gaze. She couldn't help but lower her head, and didn't know what to say. Suddenly, a white shadow flashed over, climbed along Mu Yunyao's clothes and climbed into her arms.
"Snowtreading.
" Mu Yunyao hugged the Snow Fox and couldn't help but stroke its fur.
"Did you behave well yesterday?
"
Yue Yang couldn't help but frown.
"Yunyao, you can't pet the Snow Fox. It's naturally wild, so you should train it more.
" How was it proper to hug her like this?
"Since it's so small, it naturally has to be a little spoiled. As for its wild nature, as a snow fox, it won't forget Ben, right? Treading on the snow?
"
For some unknown reason, the Snow Fox felt its entire body turn cold. It then hugged its claws as it waggled it at Mu Yunyao, trying to please her.
"Squeak, squeak.
"
The dangerous light in Mu Yunyao's eyes dispersed as she grabbed the Snow Fox and bowed towards the Titan King.
"Quickly pay your respects to Fourth Elder and let him give you New Year's red seal.
"
The Snow Fox looked at Titan, raising her foot to scratch her ear, then turned her head to look at him with her fluffy buttocks.
Mu Yunyao suddenly broke into a smile as she affectionately hugged the snow fox and rubbed it against her face.
The Snow Fox screeched happily and stuck out its tongue to lick Mu Yunyao's cheek.
"Haha, you …
"
If it wasn't for the fact that Mu Yunyao treated the Snow Fox as a treasure, he would have broken its neck right now.
It wasn't easy for Mu Yunyao and the Snow Fox to have enough of each other, so Wang Yue picked them up and placed them to the side.
"Yunyao, do you like the present I gave you?
"
"I like it.
" Mu Yunyao measured the exquisite hairpin in the box. Who wouldn't like such a diligent gift?
"Then did you forget something?
"
Mu Yunyao's fingers paused for a moment as she stroked the hairpin, then asked as if nothing had happened,
"What, did I forget something?
"
"Where's my gift?
"
"Didn't Yue Yang already give you a gift?
"
"Sent them away?
"
Mu Yunyao looked at the bag hanging on his waist,
"Isn't that the case?
"
"Of course, I won't take the gift that I snatched away from you.
"
"Then that's all.
"
"There's really nothing else?
"
"No more.
" Yue Yang couldn't help but sigh, feeling unspeakably disappointed in his heart.
"I saw that my royal father and aunt both had clothes on, so I thought I would have some too … Yunyao, you are most skilled at embroidery, but you've never done it for me in such a long time.
"He's here...
"
Mu Yunyao suddenly felt that she had gone a little overboard when she saw the Duke of Yue's dejected expression.
"Your Highness Duke of Yue definitely doesn't lack clothes to wear.
"
"It's missing. It's New Year's, I don't have any new clothes.
"
Mu Yunyao slightly pursed her lips.
"Then I'll give you some silver and find an embroidery lady to help you make two sets.
"
"Sigh …
" King Yue sighed, his tone filled with unspeakable disappointment.
"Forget about the other embroidery ladies, if only …
"
Mu Yunyao stood up to tidy up her dress,
"Mother has been gone for a long time, I'll go see what she's busy with. If there's nothing else, Your Highness Duke of Yue, please leave first.
"
"Yunyao?
"
"Jinlan, Jinqiao, see our guest out.
" After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she immediately turned around and left.
