He carefully lifted the half-a-man tall peony onto the ground and gently removed the black cloth. Who knew that just as the silk cloth fell off, the peony within the flower pot shook for a moment before the flower bud slowly bloomed. Following that, a refreshing fragrance filled the air.
It was refreshing.
"Renting a house is such a waste. If you start out scared, you'd be a demon. This … Could this be a flower demon? "
Many people in the crowd exclaimed. They had seen many peonies before, but this was the first time they had seen such a strange sight. The large flowers unexpectedly bloomed slowly in an instant.
Wu Min was shocked. He didn't believe Qi Jian's words when she said that the flower had a spirit, but now that he had seen them with his own eyes, he felt that all the precious flowers he had collected were ordinary things. How could they compare to the spirit energy of the peony in front of him?
"Mr. Qi's gift is too valuable, I am truly flattered."
Everyone shook their heads. "Chief Wu, I'm really sorry. This Hua didn't acknowledge you as her master. It looks like a fated person hasn't arrived yet. I've done so much to disturb you." As he spoke, he signaled the servant behind him to cover the peony and put it back in the box.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was spiritual and adorable. Even the leaves felt that it was completely different from the other peonies.
Qi Ming still shook his head, "Leader Wu, look here …"
"There's another flower bud?" Under the cover of the leaves of the peony, there was a flower bud that had yet to bloom. Moreover, its color seemed to be different from the purple peony that was previously open. "This …"
"Do you understand, Boss Wu? Only when two flower buds bloom at the same time will you be able to prove that this peony has taken you as its master. However, this is truly strange. Why is there only one flower bud blooming?" "Logically, it shouldn't be?" Everyone frowned, puzzled.
However, Wu Min's eyes shone brightly, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Qi. I will immediately call my wife out."
"Huh?" What was more famous than Wu Min's love for flowers and plants was his love for his wife. He heard that his wife was his distant cousin, but since she was young, her body was weak.
Not a single one of them had given a beauty to Chief Wu. In the end, they had all returned in low spirits. Some of them had even angered him, making him feel rather unhappy.
Not long after that, they saw a delicate beauty who was supported by Wu Min. She was more delicate than a flower, and her actions were as gentle as a willow leaf. They could not help but sigh: such a weak beauty!
Wu Min's voice was low as she said, "Madam, this is the peony that can choose its owner as you said. Just as I stood in front of it, there were purple flowers blooming. You came to see if there was a flower bud left."
Wu Min's wife greeted everyone with a voice as loud as a bird's chirp, "I am the Wei clan's guest."
"Madam, you are too polite."
Wu Min led the lieutenant's wife to the peony flower before bowing respectfully at the side, "Greetings Madam Lieutenant. Please come up and have a look."
The ensign smiled and nodded. She stepped forward and gently brushed away the leaves. Just as she approached, the peony that was originally closed immediately bloomed. For a moment, the beauty of the place was unfathomable.
The ensign's wife looked surprised. "This …"
The surrounding people exclaimed, "One Wei Zi, one Yao Huang, both of them are the kings of flowers, they are simply a perfect match!"
"That's right. It's a double-colored stalk, and it blooms at this time of year. It's truly amazing."
"The world is full of wonders. Today, I have truly gained experience. It turns out that flowers have intelligence as well …"
Wu Min was overjoyed. "I knew this peony was here for you and me. Madam, please take care of your health and accompany me for a long time."
The same person at the side congratulated him. "So that's how it is. The owner of this peony is a loving couple. It seems like Chief Wu and Madame Lieutenant are fated people for him."
"Thank you, Mr. Qi. This gift is too expensive. Please take a seat."
No one in the hall dared to look down on his fame. Just by the gratitude he received from Boss Wu, his future prospects were limitless. Not to mention that he had come from a mysterious background, and even had obtained such a precious peony.
In the embroidered garden, Mu Yunyao dipped her finger in water and lightly flicked the peony's petals. The peony unexpectedly bloomed in a flash, causing Jin Lan and Jin Qiao to cry out in alarm, "Miss, how did you do it? This is too surprising! "
"It's nothing. I've seen someone who can change the color of a peony with just a little bit of water. That's truly rare!"
Mu Yunyao placed the cup by her side and turned around to look at the dying Snow Fox in the cage. She took some dried meat from the side and passed it over, "Have you made up your mind? Do you want to follow me or starve to death?"
The Snow Fox lifelessly raised its head. Its current fur was dull and lifeless, and its pair of slightly red eyes did not recover the spirit it previously had. Smelling the aroma of dried meat, it involuntarily raised its head to look at Mu Yunyao's hand. "Wu …"
Mu Yunyao's eyes flashed with a smile. She opened the cage and took out the Snow Fox, stroking the fur on its back. "This place is no longer Western Guangdong, even if I release you, you won't be able to survive here. If you follow me, you will be entertained." The Snow Fox couldn't understand Mu Yunyao's words, but it was acutely aware of the trace of killing intent in her words, as if if if if it couldn't let her have her way, it would end its life on the spot. It couldn't help but tremble and hesitantly turned its body over, revealing its furry belly, allowing Mu Yunyao to stroke its soft belly.
Steward Qin walked in. When he saw this scene, he could not help but exclaim in admiration, "This Snow Fox has been tamed!" The belly was the Snow Fox's weakness. If it was not tamed, it would not dare to expose its belly. The smile in Mu Yunyao's eyes widened. She reached out, tore a small piece of dried meat, and placed it next to the snow fox's mouth. "The dried meat is too hard, so you should eat less. I'll cook something delicious for you later."
