Yue Wang Who Will Not Prepare for the New Year Ceremony
When Mu Yunyao returned home, she ate a dumpling as if not enjoying them . This situation made Su Qing worry as well, thinking that something had happened . "Yao'er, did you have an unpleasant conversation with that Master Ning? Or is it that he wants to take back the Jin Xiu Garden?"
Mu Yunyao came back to her senses . Seeing the wrinkles on Su Qing's eyebrows, she hurriedly soothed Su Qing, "Nothing much . Now that Jin Xiu Garden is in full swing and it has also helped him earn a lot of silver taels, why would he suddenly take the garden back?"
"Then why does mother keep feeling that you have something on your mind?" Before, when Fourth Master Ning was not here, you were happily playing with Jin Lan and the rest on the ice . Afterward, when you saw him, you looked as if you were preoccupied with something . Tell Mother the truth, that even if there is any difficulty, you must let us pass it together . "
Looking at Su Qing's worried expression, Mu Yunyao had the impulse to reveal Yue Wang's identity, but she understood Su Qing's character . Once she knew who Yue Wang was, her action would reveal his identity and make things even more troublesome .
"Mother, don't worry . Actually, this isn't related to Fourth Master Ning . It was because I suddenly thought of the New Year's gift sent to the Capital . Tomorrow at the New Year's Eve banquet, the Emperor will see the New Year's gift . I don't know if he likes it or not?"
Su Qing saw that her expression didn't seem fake and couldn't help but laugh . "Don't worry . The New Year's gift that Mother saw you embroider stitch after stitch, it was without the slightest flaw . His Majesty will definitely like it . "
Mu Yunyao nodded and acted as if she was relieved, "That's good . With Mother's words, I'm relieved . "
"And here I was wondering what it was that caused you to be worried . It turns out that you would be so concerned about gains and losses . " Usually, she saw Yao'er had confidence in herself . But now, seeing her act so stubborn in such a small matter, she couldn't help but feel a sense of affection towards her .
"Isn't this an important matter? Naturally, I can't help but be worried . "
"But now that things are settled, worrying about it is useless . Why bother finding trouble with yourself?"
Mu Yunyao stared blankly for a moment before thinking back to what Su Qing had said . The large stone that was hanging in her heart returned to the ground gradually .
Regardless of the reason why Yue Wang came here this time, he had already come anyway, so his life experience could not be changed . If he really found out about something, then she only needed to think of a way to save it . Why worry about it in advance, it's not good for years to be disturbed?
"Yes, I understand . Thank you, Mother, for your guidance . "
Su Qing tapped the center of her brows . "If you understand, then please make your mother happy . It's the New Year, don't make a face . Otherwise, you'll have to worry for the rest of the year . "
Mu Yunyao stood up and bowed like she was a proper person, "Yes, I will follow the instructions of Mother . "
After she thought it through, Mu Yunyao decided to forget about Yue Wang . After she woke up, it was New Year's Eve .
As soon as she got up, she felt a vast expanse of white outside the window . When she opened the window, she saw that the yard covered with a thick layer of snow, and the trees covered with white . When the wind blew, the snow fell, just like a pear blossom rain, she could not help but read out: "Suddenly, it's like the spring breeze all night, thousands of trees and pear blossom . . . "
Jin Qiao carried a basin of water and walked in with Jin Lan . Hearing Mu Yunyao's poem, she couldn't help but find it strange, "Miss, when you went to rest at night, the snow started falling . It had been snowing all night, and it just stopped just now . Isn't there no pear blossoms to appreciate in this cold weather?"
Mu Yunyao pointed out the window and turned around to look at her with a smile . "Look at those trees . Do they look like they are full of pear blossoms?"
Jin Qiao stretched out her neck to take a look, "When the Young Miss says it, it really does look like it! Ah, so Miss was talking about the snow . I thought you were talking about the spring scenery while listening to the spring breeze and the pear blossom!"
Mu Yunyao smiled and looked at the snow in the courtyard . She couldn't help but feel a bit interested, "How about we call Jin Pei and the others over later, and we can make a snowman in the courtyard?"
"Alright, it's not easy in Jiangnan to see such heavy snow . This servant will help as well . "
"Okay, then we'll pile up the snowman in the front yard . When the night is over, we'll put out firecrackers and enjoy the fireworks . If there's a snowman, we can also go along with the scenery . "
"Alright, we’ll listen to Young Miss . "
After Mu Yunyao finished her breakfast, she told Su Qing that she would be bringing people to the front yard . She picked up a shovel, dustpan, broom, and the like to piled up the snow .
Nan'er, Ah Mao, and Li'er were all dressed in plump clothes, and they go back and forth in the snow to help them . They accidentally fell like a rolling gourd, but they didn't mind . They got up and let out a series of laughter .
Mu Yunyao originally wanted to help but was stopped by Jin Lan and Jin Qiao, who placed thick gloves on her hand and ordered her to stand at the side . At first, she was quite interested in being the commander . However, after seeing that she wasn't as fast as Jin Lan and the others, she couldn't help kicking the snow with some boredom .
Nearby, Nan'er and Ah Mao were chasing each other as they played snowball . She couldn't help but bends down to make a ball and then threw it towards Jin Lan . But she didn't expect her clothes to be so heavy and she was not sure when she threw it . With great strength, the snowball flew high above Jin Lan's head and slammed straight out .
Steward Qin followed Yue Wang to the Su residence . As soon as he entered the front yard, he saw that everyone gathered together to make a snowman . He could not help but sigh: "It's been a long time since we've seen such a lively scene . " Yue Wang's gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Mu Yunyao . She wore a snow-white cloak, her black hair was like ink, and her eyes were like stars . She bent down with a ball of snow in her hand, and the corners of her lips smile cunningly . It suddenly reminded him of the Snow Fox on the ice field in Western Guangdong . It rumored that those Snow Fox were exceptionally spiritual . If one was able to cultivate their Taoism, they could transform into a human form to enchanted everyone . If the rumors were true, then the Snow Fox that had taken human form was probably the same as Mu Yunyao . Just as he lost in thought, he saw Mu Yunyao's snowball throw towards him . The bright smile on her face was even more touching than the surrounding ice and snow . He couldn't help but reach out to catch it . Ice and snow melted in his palm, carrying a bone-piercing coldness . However, when he looked at Mu Yunyao's smile, he felt a slight warmth in his heart .
When Mu Yunyao saw the snowball fall into Yue Wang's hands, she was shocked and hurriedly went forward to pay her respects . "Greetings, Fourth Master Ning . "
Yue Wang regained his senses . The snowballs in his hands had already melted quite a bit . Seeing that Mu Yunyao was staring at his hands, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to pass the snowball over . "Here . "
Mu Yunyao hurriedly took off her gloves and was about to go forward to catch it when she saw Yue Wang retract his hand . She slightly frowned in disapproval . "The weather is cold, so you shouldn't be greedy while playing with the snow . "
Mu Yunyao stunned for a moment . She saw that his gaze fixated on the rabbit leather gloves in her embrace . She stiffly wore the gloves on her hands before stepping forward to pick up the snowballs with her hands .
Yue Wang stretched his eyebrows . When he saw her that her two hands holding onto each other, he thought in his heart, the people in front of him were still more like mandarin duck cat . The Snow Fox had always been crafty . It would definitely not be stupid enough to pick up the snowball directly with their hand . Steward Qin was grinning from ear to ear . He felt that in another two years, he might be able to serve his Young Master .
